A Berlin correspondent says: "In
Germany, especially at this time, the
public asks no questions. Every order
given by the military and police au-
thorities is bllndly obeyed." Students
of history know that this popular sub
mission to authority Is u development
Of at least two centuries. And herein
lies the secret of Germany's efficiency
In war. However we may look at Ger
manys position today, 1t must be con
Ceded that her efficiency is to be ad-
mired and emulated by any people that
means to qualify for war. A beated
appreciation of this fact is now In evl'
uenCe in this country. We should pre-,
Jare, say some, to do things Germany
Ia doing, not In kind, of course, but in
manner. But blind obedience Is trait
directly antagonistic to people nour-
ished on the spirit of '7G. Can any for
eign system be engrafted here In its es-
sential essence2 Self governing means
self initiating, self preparing, and so
on. The efficiency of the United States
Is founded on democracy. 1t has stood
the test. To engraft an old world sys-
TEN upon new world foundation
would be revolutionary and probably
create greater war evils than 1t cured.

WILL TAKE NO CHANCES

Democrats of Ohio will do honor to
former Governor James e. Campbell
by naming him as Ohio's second
choice candidate for president. This
is done to comply literally with the
provisions of the Ohio constitution
and statute, which provides that all
candidates for delegate and alternate
at the national conventions must de-
clare for first and second choices,
and that no name can be used with
out the written consent of the candi-
date.
The Democratic state committee,
at its last meeting appointed Hon
Newton ID. Baker and National Com.
mitteman Edmund Fl. Moore as q
committee to arrange matters to look
after the interests of President viii.
son in the Ohio political field. The
president himself settled the first DIFF.
ficulty by writing a letter To Secre-
tary of State Hildebrant consenting
TO the use of his name. Secretary of
State Hildebrant later gave out a
statement in which he informally
ruled that where there were not two
candidates no second choice would be
required, but in order to set up every
safeguard and purely as precau-
aionary measure, the committee de.
'cided that an honorary candidate
should be offered for second choice,
one who would be not only acceptable
to President Wilson but who would
do honor to the ticket and whom the
Democrats of the state would delight
to honor 1t was an easy matter for
them to decide upon Ex-Governor
James e. Campbell, than whom there
rs no more popular man in the state,
and he was the natural and logical
choice because he Is the oldest living
Democratic ex-governor.
When the matter was broached to
Ex-Governor Campbell he consented
to the use of his name for the sole
reason that the Democratic state or.
ganization deemed second candi.
date necessary. In his letter of con
sent and in the letter of State Chair.
man w. l.. Finley, forwarding that
consent TO the secretary OF state it
was made plain that the candidacy of
Ex-Governor Campbell was solely in
the interest Of the candidacy of Pres.
ident Wilson in Ohio and for no other
reason
Declarations of candidates for del
.esates and alternates to both the ma
tional and state conventions must be
filed not later than Feb 25 for the
primary election to be held April 25.
The national convention delegates
will assist at the st. Louis meeting
IN the denomination of President vii
son, while the state delegates will
meet in convention in Columbus June
D. TO write a state platform and nom
mate presidential electors.

1t will he recalled that about a year
ago when Japan made some demands
upon China there were seven of the
series which China positively refused
to concede. In brief these demands
were: That China shall employ Japa.
nese financial and other domestic "ad-
visers:" that Japan shall have the right
to construct hospitals, churches and
schools in China; that Japanese shall
be employed in the police departments
of Chinese cities; that China shall pur-
chase certain proportion of war mu-
nitions from Japan; that Japan shall
have exclusive railroad concessions in
China; that extensive exclusive conces-
sions shall be made to Japan in Flu
kien province, virtually closing 1t to
other nations, and that Japanese shall
have the right to propagate Buddhism
throughout China. II Is said that ia
pan presses these seven demands anew,
insisting that they are necessary for
the well being Of China. The Japanese
deny that the demands II granted and
lived up to would conflict with other
nations operating in China. A year
ago China's attitude was that she
would fight rather than yield to the
extraordinary demands.
