LOYAL, BE 1T PEACE OR
WAR

nm ANY thousands strong
HW Pendleton people turn
ed out last night to
show theif. loyalty to the Unit
ed States and support of Pres
sdent Wilson and his admins
tration in any steps necessary
TO take in the performance OF
national duty.
The first lesson from the
demonstration last night is
that the people are responsive
70 the call of patriotism. In
their hearts the mass of peo-
pie are true Americans, ready
TO serve and sacrifice if needs
be in behalf of the nations
.veifare.
Our people have also been
awakened to the necessity of
preparedness. The present
war is bringing home to all the

fact that modern warfare lis
not at all like Lexington and
Bunker Hill or even Gettys-
burg. Nations now mass their
armies and navies upon a
mammoth scale and the equip
ment used is something stu
pendous. 1t is common sense
policy for the United States to
place itself in a fair degree of
readiness for trouble in the
event it breaks upon us.
Yet loyal as they are PEN
dleton people do not want war
if it can be avoided with safe
ty and honor. No sane Ame-
rican wants this country TO
enter the European war unless
it is necessary to do so from an
American standpoint. Those
who want us to get into the
fray for any other reason are
not pro-American they are
pro-ally and their counsel is to
be Stunned.
While the war cloud looms
cminously before us and peace
seems almost a vain hope the
real storm has not yet broken.
There is still a chance that
Germany may recede from her
submarine campaign
and so avoid driving the Uni
ted States into the ranks of the
allies.
The best hope of this coun-
try lies in the man in the |
White House. He is a sane |
and courageous minded Am
We may count upon it |
that under his leadership this |
country will sacrifice no prin-
ciple. He will fight if it is
necessary to fight. He will
keep the country in peace if he
can do so with credit and safe
" to the nation. Wait for
what Wilson says and mean
while neither be lulled to
'leep by the ultra pacifists nor
aroused to excess frenzy by
he over Jealous war makers.
Let US be loyal and back up

IN GERMANY

IF Germany wins the pres
J ent war despotic govern
ment under the kaiser will
be vindicated. The cause of
democracy in the Fatherland
will be set back immeasur-
ably. Prussian militarism will
become more firm in the sad
die with all that such implies.
If Germany should lose the
war there seems a good chance
for the overthrow of the
Hohenzollerens and the estab-
1ishment of a government by
the people and for the people.
In that case the common peo-
pie of Germany would gain
more than they could hope to
gain by a German victory in
the war.
In this respect the German
people are in a situation where
they will gain if they lose and
lose if they gain.
Germans in this country are
in position to see this feature
of the situation more plainly
than can the people in Europe.
The fact, has a bearing on ar
fairs between the Uniteo
States and Germany.

ships have been obliged to
learn that the German pro-
hibitiOn is effective and that
there is no question of distinc-
tive treatment for the Uniteo
States. In view of such losses
there is only one policy for the
United States, as for the small
European maritime powers,
namely, to retain their ships in
their own ports as long as the
war lasts"
In other words this man
who evidently states the view
of the Germany military party
gives US preemptory orders to
keep off the sea. 1t is line of
action unprecedented in his
tory. The allies take no such
high handed course. If they
find merchantmen with sup
plies for the enemy they fol-
low the rule of visit and search
not the policy of sinking on

The German policy is respon-
sible for the fact the United
States is almost at the point or
aligning with the allies against
the central powers. Germany
has done more for her enemies

A boon to women troubled with superfluous hair is the new phelactine process. It is totally unlike the depila- tory electrical and other methods heretofore employed for the removal of hairy growths. It is the only thing that enab bles one to remove the hair ompletely-roots and all-in ones own home, without the assistance of an expert. The result can not be doubted, for the user secs the hair roots with her own eyes.

SEVENTY GALLONS
 MORE f0R CREAMERY
Pastcurizcd Plant Will Start on 150 Gallons Milks Daily, so Have
 Been Assured.

A Pasteurized creamery in Pine Bluff would be boon to the people, a good and profitable thing for those who have milk to sell, and would add materially to the upbuilding of the city, said E. B. Bloom, secretary of the chamber of commerce. Besides, it will give a new payroll for the city, and will increase the profits of those who have the milk to sell. Taking perspective view of things, he said, Pine Bluff should be shipping milk, butter and cottage cheese Ia Memphis, Little Rock and other mar cts.
 "Wc have been talking about a Pasteurized creamery for years," he continued, "but the trouble has been to get some one interested to invest. Those who would invest were under the impression that there are not a sufficient number of milk COWS in the county to provide suitable supply daily. Now we have someone ready to | invest, and we have the assurance of so gallons of milk day. but the mini mum supply for a creamery is l5o gallons"
 Mr. Bloom said surely Pine Bluff and Jefferson county should be able to furnish this much milk. He referred to tho efforts that were made through the co-opeartion of the daily papers to secure information from the peo- pie as to how many gallons of milk they would be able to sell tho cream cry. and the replies gave an aggre- gatc of 80 gallon per day.
 He called attention to the fact that ! Pasteurized creameries are not new; they have been established in every ,part of the country, and they provide an absolutely sanitary product for the consumer.
 These concerns usually increase in- stead of decreasing the profits of the producer of milk. No attempt has 1been, nor will be made to fix any prices, but the chamber of commerce wants to get the statistics as to the possible supply for the creamery, and Iieave it to the producer and manu- 'facturer to agree on prices. 1 A creamery here would provide a market for the milk, and the town
 and territory tributary thereto would realiz, an increase in their revenues, for it would stimulate the dairy in terests. and would encourage them to keep milch cows.
 1 On the other hand the creamery would employ from Is to 20 men, which would mean an additional pay roll for the city, an increase i'll the ilocal circulating medium that would prove beneficial to every local inter- lest. All that is needed to insure ,the creamery is the assurance ot ,1oO gallons g day, ot which amount 80 gallons have been promised, ano

Conscripfion's Success
(From The New York Trlbunel

The most impressive thing about
Tuesdays draft registration was its
lack Of what might be called moving
picture theatricality. That has never
been absent before in our attempts
70 raise armies lt was Mr. Bryan's
boast in his pacifist days that 1,00O,-
600 Americans would leap TO arms
overnight If war threatened us. They
would have made tremendous clat-
ter about it In that case-an incom-
parably greater clatter than was
made on Tuesday, when more than
100000 men were put at the gov
ernment's disposal with less excite
ment than usually accompanies an
ordinary State or local election.
What a contrast this noiseless and
matter-of-fact call to arms offers to
the old foverish, drum corps methods
OF volunteering No exhortation, no
artificial enthusiasm, no poster adver-
tising, no mass hyster'a. Only the
quiet pressure of a law Of universal
incidence democratic in form and
spirit, and therefore respected even by
the conscripts who are TO be the first
10 bear its burdens. No greater tri-
could be imagined than this sober
and cheerful acceptance Of It by a ma
tion which less than year ago
seemed welded to the noisy. wasteful,
haphazard and inequltable volunteer
theory.
Conscription was supposed to be too
undramatic and too commonplace a
method TO appeal to the restless, ex-.
citement-loving American. He would
answer the call of a Paul Revere, II
was said. But he would not take kindly
TO going quietly into a booth by gov
ernmental order and writing his name
down as q defender OF hrs country.
All that romantic nonsense has now
been exploded. With a calmness and
q whole-hearted appreciation OF the
value OF the new method for which
the nation was hardly prepared the
American conscript has dedicated
himself To- service-a service which he
knows is necessary and which he will
perform all the more faithfully he
cause he realizes that 1t is distributed
intelligently and equally.
Despite all fOrebodlngs due to the
presence here OF so large an element
Of German blood and sympathies, the
country is entering this war more
united in feeling than 1t has been in
any other of its wars, the war with
Spain being a possible exception. We
could not have had a national draft in
the Revolutionary War. A large and
influential part Of our population was
Tory. II was loyal to King George, and
suffered and fought for him. Another
large part Of the able-bodied colon
lists could not be induced TO fight ex-
