The daily telegram. [volume] (Clarksburg, W. Va.) 1901-1926, 1916-10-30

Wilson scourse vitalized civil war
in Mexico and border war with us.
Thevaclllating and irresolute policy
of the present administration has
brought humiliation upon this
country, both at home and abroad.
We have been at war; we are now
at war; many lives have been lost;
our honor has been besmirched, and
yet the Democratic Party cries to
the nation HE kept US out Of war;"
'He has protected me and mine"
Thefactis thathe has neglected our
greatest treasures lives of our
citizens and the honor of our coun-
try.
1t is the world war in Europe,
not the acts of the Wilson admins
tration, which has kept US out Of
international complications that
would have sorely tried our courage,
and our strength.
Just prior to the outbreak of
the Uar there 1Uas forming a
combination of European nations
to demand of US that uUe stop
the disorder in MEXICO, to de-
n1and protection of the EUes and
Uast property of European citi-
zens in Mexico, to declare that
these European nations uOouLd
giUe protection by force of arms
if we did not.
What would that have meant?
1t would have meant that we must
adopt determined policy to en-
force order in Mexico, which was
the only duty consistent with the
stewardship which we assumed un-
der the Monroe Doctrine; or it
would have meant war or the sur
render of the Monroe Doctrine.

IS LIE KEPT us out Of war" J.
IL is offered by the Demo
cratic Party as a statement Of a
supreme accomplishment. That
slogan is false. To accept it with
out thought or reason is danger
Gus to the life Of the nation.
For months we have been con-
Quoting border war with Mexico.
At Vera Cruz we demanded that
our flag be saluted. The demand
was refused. We landed troops;
battle followed. We withdrew
Without the salute, bringing
nineteen Of our dead Nth US and
Leaving our honor behind; and
to this day the salute demanded
has not been fired.
The weakness Of Mexico, not the
strength of the United States, is
all that has prevented our act of
war from being turned into the Sc
rious fact Of war.
If the slaughter Of American citi-
zens-men, women and children
by armed troops, if the killing of
American soldiers by the soldiers
of another nation, if the sacking
Of our towns is not war, what is it?
The Judge Advocate General of
our army says it is war. The Mex
leans say it is war. Wilson's
acts show it is war, but Wilson's
Uoice says it is peace.
The Truth is that it is more than
war. 1t is war without honor and
murder without reparation. It's
condition that makes. every
true citizen ashamed of the
spectacle Ue haUe become in the
eyes of other nations.

r,HURcH NOT PROPER PLACE

A well-known vicar gives a curl
GUS experience which is well worth
relating. It was his custom to point
his sermons with either Dearly be-
loved brethren" or Nov, my
brothers" until one day a lady MEM
Der of the congregation took excep-
ton to this, and asked him why he
always preached to the gentlemen
and never to the ladies.
my dear lady" said the beaming
vicar, zone embraces the other"
But not in church, was the reply
Of the astonished lady.

HOW HE FELT

The conditions in the trenches
were dreary in the extreme after the
drenching and long-continued rain
fall, but the irrepressible spirits of
the Pals were not yet entirely
quenched when the order came to
leave the trenches.
Hurry up out of this, my gallant
soldiers" was the CHEEKY call of the
sergeant to his waist-deep and rain
sidden men.
"Soldiers!" came the derisive an
swer from one of them. 'I'm not a
soldier; Pm blooming bulrush!'

The head is a long structure COM
handing the altitude record of the
human framework!
It just acts as knob to keep the
backbone from unwinding.
Most heads are just used as a
place for a hat to rest on. The only
thing that comes out of the majority
of heads is hair.
There are many kinds of heads,
fat heads, fiat heads, boneheads and
wrestlers. You really couldn't call
it head with any of the above, it's
just a kind of blemish on the Shout
ders, so to speak.
The original idea for head was
a piece of machinery for thinking,
but they're not using 'em for that
purpose any more.
Especially as is the case with the
clowned heads of Europe. When
waste gets caught in the gears, you
know blooie!

HIS NEED

For three successive nights New
pop had walked the floor with the
baby. On the fourth night he be-
came desperate and bought bottle
of soothing syrup.
'Why, James," exclaimed his wife,
when she saw the bottle, what did
you buy that for? Don't you know
it is very dangerous to give a child
anything like that?"
Don't worry" was her husbands
reply. 'Tm going to take it myself"

LITTLE SUFFERING
 FROM FOOD PRICES
faepubIican A. p. Leased wIrel

LONDON. Dec. 16.-Welfare work CTS in the great East End report that families In that district have suffer ed much less than might have been expected from the high cost of food.
 The six penny meal. which used to include three pence worth of meat, q penny's worth of green vegetables, a rennys worth of potatoes and a pcnny's worth of bread is however a hing of the past. Fish and eggs are now unattainable luxurios. But the housekeepers buy more beans and cereals than they used to do, and as always they buy great quantities of bread
 Most Of these families would feel the pinch severely were 1t not for the tact that the women are all at work. And welfare workers insist that the work which the East End women are doing has in many cases been great boon to them physically as well as financially Onefragile women. for instance, is lifting heavy sacks in flour mill, others are screening coal and handling eight tons to every five tons formerly handled by the men they have replaced. In addition. these women are doing their own house. work and caring for their children at hours when a man would be done for the day. The reasons given for their fitness are significant. As one re- nort phrases it, they are now earn ing enough to feed themselves prop arly, and they are freed for the first lime from the weekly worry of pro- viding food for Friday and Saturday from an empty purse

 The cottonseed oil is sent in place of animal fat, which are not eaten in Armenia and Syria. The Red Cros was informed that olive oil was con sidered highly desirable but the cost was prohibitiYe and cottonse ed was substituted.
