German statesmen denounce Pre-
sident Wilson as an autocrat, and
attempt to favorably compare their
government with this, on the ground
that they shave the kings pledge
that the general, direct, equal and
secret ballot, the most liberal cleo
toral franchise in the world, will now
become an institution in Prussia"
All very fine and Understanding, but
we might remind our teuton critics
that this same general, direct, equal
and secret ballot" has always pre-
vailed in this country, and that it is
solidly and unanimously behind our
President. Those German states
men might enlighten the world by
stating to just what extent the mas

BAR THE, GERMAN LANGUAGE

The Des Moines Qa.) Capital very
sensibly suggest that the United
States prohibit the printing of news
papers, books and pamphlets in the
German language.
The suggestion is worthy of adop-
ton. And in this connection we
would urge the barring of the Ger
man language from our schools.
There is absolutely no reason why
the children of loyal American par
ents should be saturated, during the
most impressionable period of their
lives, with the literature of a nation
whose ideas and ideals are so great
" at variance with those of this
country as are those of Germany.
There can be no doubt that the
dissemination of the German Ian
guage in this country tends to create
certain sympathy for the people
who speak that language. Our SYM
pathies follow our associations to n
great extent. 1t is impossible to ac-
quire working knowledge of any
language without developing sympa-
thy for its people. Just at this. time,
sympathy for Germany is a misft in
the breast of any American. True
there are many German-Americans
among us, but the time has come
when these must be either flesh or
fowl-Amercians or Germans. The
lhyphenated nationality must cease.
In plain words. this country has no
longer any room for the person OF
divided allegiance, The German
American must go, and in his place
must be either the American or the
German.
IL may sound harsh TO say thai
our citizens of foreign birth must
forswear and forget the land of
their birth, but if we are to be a ma
ton, and not a polygot mixture Of
al races, TINS is precisely what they
must do.
The paper quoted above concludes
its article with the assertion that
"there is not loyal German lan-
guage newspaper in America" The
statement may be too strong; but be
chat as il may, the cultivation of the
language affords. to say the least,

THE BIRD SEASON.

The quail season will open Novenl-
Der 10, and Nimrods in the city and
county are already making prepara-
tiOns to make an advance all along
the entire front" Some sections of
inc county report cartridges scarce,
while other localities report a pretty
fair supply. However, it may be that
they are little scarce as compared
to the past several years. All per-
sons who have no license and expect
to hunt quail should get them before
going into the field.

TEACH PRACTICAL PATRIOTISM

In seeking for an explanation for
the apathy and lack Of patriotism
manifested in many parts of the
country, one is confronted in almost
every instance with the one under
lying inhuence-ignorance. Ignor-
ance of American ideals, traditions
and principles. Ignorance Of the
plain duty of every citizen of a bene-
fcient government. to preserve ana
defend the institutions of that gov
eminent.
In the schools Of this country
from this time on, a department OIL
practical patriotism should have
foremost place. Love of country is
not all hereditary. A practIcal
knowlegede of all that our coutry
and our government stands for in
the lives of its citizens is essential
to the development of the highest
type of patriotic citizenship.
1t is not enough that people
should have a sentimental love 1or
the soil that bred them Thousands
of aliens within our borders, now
loyal citizens of our country, have
this love. 1t is noticeable however,
that this does not detraet from their
full allegiance to the government
that has received and nurtured them.
There must be more than this to
make the true American type. There
must be first Knowledge full rea-
Iization Of the superiority of our IN
stitutions; full appreciation of the
great benefits that we as INDIVID-
UALS have received and are contin-
ually receiving from them. Add to
this carefully cultivated sense of
gratitude, and the country will be
safe in the hands Of its citizens.
In the past years much has been
said of the privileges of our land.
The time has come when we must
emphasize the DUTIES of the people
to the government that makes those
great privileges.
Teachers and parents of America,
its up to YOU.
