Dismemberment Essential.

But Austria's present maneuvers
toward peace ought not to deceive the
entente. She is willing no doubt to sacri-
fce some territory. but not enough to re-
move her as a menace. The dismember-
ment of Austria-Hungary is just as es-
sential to permanent peace in Europe as
the destruction of military Prussianism.
Bohemia with the Slovaks should
become a separate independent state.
The Italian elements in the monarchy
should go to Italy; the Rumanian ele-
ments to Rumania; the Ruthenians to
Russia; the Poles to Poland and the
south Slavs to Serbia. There would re-
main the German Austrians and the
Magyars in separate states. This is the
only possible way of crushing out the
mittel-Europa idea If Poland and Bo-
hernia are free central Europe cannot
exist.
II believe also that the dynasty in
Austria must go. The question is de-
mocracy or dynasty. Bohemia is for a
republican form of government. The
spirit of Austria must be changed.
Dynastic Austria will always be dar-
Eerous because so closely linked with
Germany. Nothing but democracy and
dismemberment can achieve really
democratic reconstruction of Europe"

did he believe that the executive

In other words, Mr.. Lincoln was
q conservative of the most pronounc-
ed type, an uncompromising protec-
zionist and an American. He believed
in peace, but in peace with victory,
for he wrote to Charles Francis
Adams, our ambassador to England,
as follows:
"If the British, government in any
way approach you, directly or indi-
rectly, with propositions which as
sumo or contemplate an appeal to the
president on the subject of our in
ternal affairs. whether it seems to i'm
ply purpose to dictate, or to mediate
or to advise, or even to solicit or per-
suade, you will answer that you are
forbidden to debate, to hear, or in
any way to receive, entertain or trans
NIT any communication of the kind
"It requires somewhat more than a
deep interest in man as man, some
what more than an abiding love of
counry, somewhat more than settled
convictions, to establish a similitude
with Abraham Lincoln"

MARRIED Fifty !.
YEARSFEB. s
Mr.. and Mrs. Herman LochmiIier, Of
East Boyer Township, Celebrate
Golden Wedding February 6
RELATIVES AND FRIENDS THERE
Mr.. Lochsniller Was Born in 1888 and
Mrs. Lochmiiler In Year 1872
six Children Born.

Mr.. and Mrs. Herman Lochmiller,
highly respected, citizens of East
Boyer township, celebrated their gold
en- wedding anniversary at their home
on Tuesday, February 9Th. Owing to
the fact that Mrs. Lochmiller is not
enjoying the best of health it was
deemed best not to indulge in the
usual large social function common
to celebrations of this kind. but the
day was celebrated by inviting only
the relatives and most intimate friends
of the family. 1t is needless to say
the occasion was most happy one
for Mr.. and Mrs. Lochmiller.. their
children attending to every detail to
make it success and one long to be
remembered by them.
Mr.. and Mrs. Lochmiller are among
the earliest settlers of Crawford coun-
ty, coming here more than fifty years
ago and since that time have been
continuous residents of the county:
Iowa was one large prairie when they
came here from Germany in the year
1866 and they have watched with in.
terest the great development which
has taken place since that time. or
course the early years of their resi-
dence in Crawford county were filled
with many hardships, but by careful
planning and frugality they were able
to acquire considerable property so
they are now able to enjoy the fruits
Of their labor.
Mr.. Lochmiller was born in Ger.
many in the year 1888 in the Province
of Westphalens and is now in his Saith
year and seemingly enjoying the best
of health. His estimable wife, Anna
Frese, was born in the same province
in Germany in 1912. For the past few
years Mrs. Lochmi!ler has been In
falling health. Mr.. Lochmiller came
to America in 1866, landing at New
Orleans, and a year later came to

The Valentine Custom.

Most sober married folks look back
with some amusement to the Februar-
les of old, when they used to send val
entines to their best loves. 1t was q
thrilling moment when the lacey and
sugary missives were dispatched. You
hardly dared meet your inamorata on
the street in your anxiety to know
how she had taken it. .,H
Do the boys and girls Of today send
those sentimental offerings of Cupid
anymore? To be sure the shops have
a lot of valentine stock. But they
seem to be more of the post card or.
der, little remembrances for children
to send each other before they have
arrived at the sickly and morbid age
of calf love.
Probably the old fashioned senti-
mental valentine has gone out. The
youth of today still entertain the same
old tender sentiments of yore. It's in
the blood. But they are more sensi-
tive to ridicule and hate to make them
selves absurd, so they assume coy
and of1ish airs and are not given to
frank avowal. 1t is just as we'll.

abolition of slavery by proclamation
was war measure and an incident

severance from the union were quite
as much displeased on account of the
protective tariff as upon the issue of
slavery. When the constitution of the
confederacy was adopted it expressly
prohibited a protective tariff and guar

Revise Premium List on Potatoes

On the advice of the agricultural eN-
tension department at Iowa State col
lege which thinks that it would be to
the financial interest of the potato
growers of the state to raise few
standard varieties rather than many
kinds, most of the fairs of Iowa now
offer premiums on only four to six
varieties of potatoes. They have also
greatly increased the amount of money
offered in each class and in many
cases increased the sum of prizes.
