PREPAREDNESS.

The question OF preparedness has
taken on a strong impetus in this
country since the comiaenc ment Of
the bloody strife in Europe and this
matter has been put up strongly To
the present Congress. There can be
little, it anv, doubt in TIE mind tf
any man b 1t thar the reople TIN oGgi =
out this country are strongly in favor
Of the passage Of such legislation by
Congress rs will enable this na'ion
to be at all times prepared to put :
stop to an in sasior. There are some
people, however, opposed to any
further 81 'engthening Of orr Amy
aud y Wy on the grounds that strong
preparedness is proposition against
peace. This is a falss and idiotic
idea. The contrary is rather the
CT Sc. A strong army and navy mean
pegce in its mos. forcible terms. The
country with a strong army and navy
can force others of less strength TO
come to terms under any cream
sial However, regardless. of the
question as to whether it means y SAGE
OF war, very country should at all
times be prepared for war
The people of this county as a
whole are strongly in favor of the
United States building NJ a large
and strong land and naval force that
wild be able to prevent any INVASION
of our country at any lime, and that
will be aDie to meet any foreign
country anxious for war, and at the
same time comport with the dignity
of a great Nation.
We, believe, like host o. ameri-
can citizen, in true americanism
which mean nothing more nor less
than love and patriotism for our
country and preparedness in all
branches Of our government to meet
any trouble of whatever nature OF
kind the foreign powers may sug-
gest. Preparedness means placing
our couOtry in such strong position
tina. we can at all times protect our
selves and at the same time dictate
peace terms 10 the world. IL means
furthermore, that our country will
be looked up to, honvred an1 respect
ed by all nations of the world. With
the lessons taught by The war now
going on across the water, with tn
sentiment of the people so strong for
preparedness the present Congress,
viii write black page in its histoi y
if legislation is not enacted which
will make our army nd navy, one of,
if not the strongest in the world
Preparedness is and should be the
one cry of every true and patriotic
American.

"ChiIdi!n's Statesman" viii be Here
to Speak Friday Evening and
Close Baby Week in
keokuk.
CHILD WELFARE, TOPIC
Speaker is Ardent Suffrage Worker
and His Trip Through State
Is For This
Cause.

Owen r. Lovejoy who will speak in
Keokuk Friday evening, is touring
Iowa and will speak for woman's suf-
frage during his trip through the
state. Mr.. Lovejoy will close Baby
Week with an address at the Y. w.
c. A auditorium. In his talk he will
speak on topics of vital interest, the
whole subject being appropriate to
Baby Week. His subject has been an
nounced as Child Welfare and Citi-
zenship.''
Mr.. Lovejoy is general secretary of
the national child labor committee,
and lecturer of note. During the New
York campaign for woman suffrage,
last fall, Mr.. Lovejoy travelled some
900 miles through New York state
speaking in behalf of suffrage, giving
about a month of his time to the cam
paign. He has just returned from an
other long speaking tour through the
south and middle west where he has
been urging the passage of the Keat-
ing child labor bill, measure backed
by the national child labor committee
! and of great interest to all the women
Of the country. Mr.. Lovejoy has been
on the staff of the national child
labor committee since it's organiZa-
ton in 1904 and is one Of the greatest
authorities on child labor in the coun-
try. He has been called the 'chil-
dren's statesman" because of his &C
| tivities in behalf Of child-protective
! laws. AS general secretary Of the
national child labor committee, Mr.
Lovejoy led the six years campaign
| for the federal children's bureau
which resulted in it's establishment
with Miss Julia c. Lathrop as chief
Mr. Lovejoy is quoted as saying
that his belief in woman suffrage is
based on two considerations; first, his
belief that in democracy, govern
ment by only half of the people is in
consistent, and second. his belief that
the right to vote does not depend on
the desire of the majority of the
people to do So MY right to vote,
| consider as an inherent right not de-
pending on whether majority of the
males share the same view," says Mr..
Lovejoy. Consistency compels me
to believe that if one woman desires
the ballot and desires to participate
in the affairs of the governm ent, that
right is hers even though SO percent
of the women should oppose or re-
frain from such responsibility.

OUTLAWS HARD
TO EXTERMINATE
Continued from page H.

at Guerrero on March %, defeating
them in a running fight and sending
them scurrying into the hills in small
groups. Four days later Colonel
Brown of the Tenth surprised force
composed. of these scattered remnants
at Aguas Calientes. Again the ban
dts were broken up. Then came the
only real stand the Villistas have
made, the battle with Dodd at Toma-
chic, April %. Although badly whip
ped, at least a hundred of the Viii
listas who participated in the engage
ment were able to get together and
give Major HowZe's Eleventh cavalry
a battle at Ojo AZules yesterday
morning Nearly half of the Mexican
force was left dead on the field. Many
badly wounded are believed to have
gotten away. Despite this overwhelm-
ing defeat, it is still an open question
whether this band will be able to re-
form again.
The American expedition has been
in Mexico nearly two months. Pancho
Villa, whose capture or death were
the main objects, mas been driven
into retirement. Reported from vari-
GUS sources to be badly wounded he
may be either dead or disabled. AT
least he has been eliminated as a
political and military factor in Mex
leo for the time being. About $50 of
his men, including those lost at Co
Iumbus. have been killed. Several of
his chiefs are among the dead.
Yet banditry is still prevalent in
those parts of Chihuahua not actually
policed by the American troops. Re
ports are being received almost daily
of various sized bands operating in
