And looking to the future :

-Alu iOOhliS ~ hAAS
The "copperhead' does not have to
SUPPOSE" that at the end of the pres
ent conflict no country involved in it will
have any stomach for more war, and that
no country would be able to finance a
war in case it still wanted to fight.
That is FACT upon which the paci-
fist bases his opposition to preparedness
as applied to the future for his United
States and the danger of attack.
The "copperhead" does have to sup
pose that each and every one of these
countries will recognize the economical
advantage in disarmament or in a court
of nations to insure the future peace of
the world and common brotherhood Of
man and the triumph of Christianity and
civilization, by ABOLISHING WAR
FOR ALL TIME.
That the countries now at war will
realize that the money it will take for
them to start preparing all over again
will be sorely needed for the work of re-
building, is FACT upon which the paci-
fist bases his opposition to program OF
preparedness for his United States.
Theodore Roosevelt, while in Detroit
delivering speeches which supposed
and assumed" sometimes that Ger
many would be the country to attack us
and sometimes that it would be Japan
while supposing situation in Mexico
that would compel us to turn our forces,
prepared for defense" into forces Of
.OFFENSE, TO save some American capt.
talist's mine or cattle ranch, mentioned
ONE fact.
He emphasized for pacifiists or cop
perheads," or ''weaklings' or cow
ards" the fact that the work of slaughter
has been going on in Europe now for
nearly two years. and that THE UNIT
ED STATES OF AMERICA HAS NOT
BEEN DRAWN INTO 1T.
And that the United States of Amer
lea HAS NOT BEEN DRAWN INTO
1T because Woodrow Wilson has been
able to do with diplomacy what Theo-
dore Roosevelt, had he been president,
would have ATTEMPTED to do with
bullets. and the Lord only knows wheth-
err by now it would have been done or
would be still in the doing.
This is a FACT upon which the pacif-
lists base their opposition to prepared
ness. and to Theodore Roosevelt for
president of the United States.
The Detroit times. [volume] (Detroit, Mich.) 1903-1920, 1916-05-22
The Pacifist Has FACTS
Upon Which to Base His
Opposition to Militarism.

The preparedness advocate will almost
invariably reach this speech in advanc-
ing his argument:
Suppose the United States should be
attacked tomorrow"
You stop him right there and ask him
by whom you are to suppose the United
n States to be attacked, and he will just as
invariably reply:
well, suppose we should be attacked
BY Germany"
You stop him again at that point and
AK his just how Germany would go
about it to attack the United States at
the present time with fleet of warships
4 that she dare not permit in the open, and
\ you will find that you have the prepared
I. meas advocate supposing little farther
ahead and assuming that Germany
proves to be victorious in the present
I conflict, and assuming that we will then
I Is in danger of attack no sooner than
I the conflict is over.
That, to our way of thinking, is the
great fault and the great weakness in the
position of the preparedness advocate.
Before he can find any excuse in the
world for more warships, more guns,
more soldiers and more everything else
belonging to MILTTARISM and WAR,
he has to SUPPOSE" this and "AS-
bUllE" that, for without "supposing"
md assuming" his argument becomes
legless and empty.
Preparedness is from beginning to end
hypothetical proposition.
One doesn't have to be "copperhead"
10 discern the fact.
Neither does he have to be, as Col.
Roosevelt says he is, a "weakling" or
coward"
But be he "copperhead," or weak
ling" or a coward" the opponent of
preparedness bases his position on
FACTS and NOT upon supposition or
assumption or upon any hypothesis.
He doesn't have to SUPPOSE" that
Germany, Austria, England, France,
Russia, Italy and the other countries en-
rared in the bloodiest struggle in the
history of the world THOUGHT they
were preparing for peace, but found out
to their bitter sorrow that they PRE-
PARED for WAR.
That is FACT upon which the
pacifist bases his opposition to the same
kind of preparedness for his United
States.
The "copperhead" doesn't have to
Suppose" that preparedness in the old
country has laid the fields in waste,
soaked them with the blood of men,
\ turned plowshares into swords and claim
Cd the lives Of those whose hands were
lot the plows.
That is FACT upon which the
pacifist bases his opposition to the same
kind of preparedness for his United
\ States.
The "copperhead" doesn't have to sup.
pose" that the industries of the ole
country have been wrecked, that the fac.
tories are still and that machinery is
falling to pieces while the workers are
away shooting at each other to kill each
other.
That is FACT upon which the paci-
ut bases his opposition to the same

THIS STOPS HAIR
FROM FAILING OUT

Ever try to count the dead hairs in
your comb and brush? They are ma
lures warning OF future badness and
proof that tine dangerous little dandruf
germ Is busy on your scalp.
DR.. Sangerbund. the famous Paris
specialist. first discovered that dandurff
and falling hair are caused by a mi
crobe, Then came the discovery of the
value OF the real Partisan Sage Qiquid
form In destroying the dandruff germ
and promptly preventing the further
loss of hair. The effect of only three
days use OF Partisan Sage Is simply
marvellous, and the American people
have now awakened to the fact that
dandruff is Just as unnecessary az II Is
unhealthy, and that they can be quick
ly ~ OF II and save their hair by using
a few ounces of Partisan Sage.
Partisan Sage IL sold by O'Donnells
Drug Stores and good druggists every
where. It's an inexpensive. daintily
perfumed liquid, free from sickness
and will surely cause hair to grow soft
lustrous, and really seem twice as
abundant.-Advt.
