To the People of Wisconsin:
National emergencies occur when it
is lawful for the President to call forth
to federal service the militia of the
several states. He alone and exclu-
sively has the power to determine
when the exigency for such calling
forth has arisen.
By order, dated June IS, 1916, the
President of the United States has
called forth the Wisconsin National
guard to the number of one brigade
for three regiments of infantry, one
troop of cavalry, one battery, field ar
tillery and one field hospital.
His call is the call of the nation
and as such l transmit it to the Ma
tional guard of Wisconsin
And call not only upon those who
are bound by enlistment to serve the
state, but upon all other people of
Wisconsin that by their aid and en-
couragement, as in previous years,
the quota of Wisconsin troops required
for national service may be promptly
filed and thereafter maintained and
to the further end in place of those
who go forth there may be organized,
drilled and disciplined fresh troops to
serve the state and the nation if they
shall be also called forth.
EMMANUEL. L. Philip,
Governor and COMMANDMENTS Chief.

PAT RioTIsM

BY SIR WALTER SCOTT
Breathes there the man with soul so
dead
Who never to himself hath said,
This is my own. my native land;
Whose heart hath ne'er within him
burned,
AS home his footsteps he hath turned
From wandering on a foreign strand
If such there breathe, go, mark him
we'll,
For him no minstrel raptures swell;
High though his titles. proud his
name,
Boundless his wealth as wish can
claim,
Despite those titles, power and pelf,
The wretch, concentered all in self,
Living, shall forfeit fair renown
And doubly dying, shall go down
! To the vile dust from whence he
sprung,
Unwept, unhonored and unsung.

Judge Horsey is quoted as saying
that he has not decided whether or
not he will be a candidate for con-
gress. We have a very high regard
for the Judge, and we hope he will
decide not to run. A review Of the
constitution OF the state, which he
swore to protect and defend on taking
the office Of district judge. should
definately decide for him the course
he should take. Two supreme judges
have placed themselves In very COM
promising position by declaring them
selves candidates for office In defiance
OF a constitutional provision which
plainly and positively declares them
Ineligible, and these two are two too
many. On three former occasions
judges In office similarly defied the
constitution, and the answer OF the
voters at the polls is history. The
judicial ermine Is badge of high hon
or, but 1t is not SO high that 1t can
set the constitution and n sacred oath
at naught. Not through selfishness
for our local candidate for congress,
but because of our high regard and
warm personal friendship for Judge
Horsey we hope the scales may be
cast from his eyes.

POETIC JUSTICE

There is but one sentiment in this
country regarding the triumphs of the
Grand Duke Nicholas and his Russian
army in the Caucasus campaign. cul.
minating In the capture of the great
fortress OF Erzerum. Americans
frankly rejoice in it.
Most Of us never heard of Erzerum
until just the other day, and know
precious little about the situation in
that back-lot Of the war zone, or even
about the bearing of this victory on
the general strategy of the war. But
we feel instinctively that Erzerum rs
the answer to what seems to have
been the greatest massacre in history,
crime infinitely worse than any per.
petrated in Belgium.
The Russian victors are now press.
ing westward through Armenia. They
are making themselves masters of the
fertile lands and scattered villages
now vacant of their thrifty and peace,
full owners--a region from which a
nation was driven like herd of cattle,
dying from bullet and hunger and dis.
ease by hundreds of thousands. From
that smiling land, now the graveyard
OF people, the Turks who committed
the monstrous deed are now them
selves being driven by the relentless
Russians. 1t looks like the judgment
Of Heaven
