Every one who has the price of a
flag ought to let it float from his
home and thereby show his love of
country and its symbol, but the effect
will be lost when the action is manda-
tory as in Globe, Ariz., where an or
dinance provides a fine of 5000 or
200 days in Jail against the owner of
every business house, store front or
vehicle that fails to fly a flag. We
should like to see the flag displayed
everywhere in Stanford but not as a
compulsory act.

with the primary three months and

are trying for sheriff, while four
seek to be county clerk and the same
number to be assessor, with two or
more for each of the other offices:
The desire for Office springs eternal
in the human breast, but many are

WILLING TO TRADE
Kaiser COnceding Belgium to
Save His Own Scalp.
"But i'm Role of Peace Tempter
He Fools Nobody"
BY ]. w. T. MASON.

New York, Sept 15.-Germany's re-
ply to the pope's peace proposal is be-
ing preceded by German propaganda
suggesting that the kaiser's militarists
are willing to give up Belgium if the
allies do not insist upon the democrat
ization of the German government II
is apparent that this is to be the next
important move toward peace that the
kaiser will take. He is preparing to
bride the allies with territorial resti-
tuition if they will only permit him to
retain his irresponsible power over the
German people.
The time is approaching when the
normal strength of the allies will be
put to a supreme test. All indications
point to the kaiser's determination to
use the pope's interceSsion for peace
as a means to take the allies upon
high mountain and offer them dom

the German nation for material gain
To Maintain Control of Army.
The kaiser, above everything else,
wants the war to end with his con-
troll of the German government unim-
paired He will, in the end, forfeit
BELGIUM and northern France, and
even Alsace-Lorraine if the allies Will
let him off from making a constitu-
tional monarchy out of Germany.
Then, he will have better chance OF
saving the house of Hohenzollern;
lot as lODS DIS lllo hedlSSI anu ilOb lAlO
reichstag controls the army, a revolu-
ton in Germany after the war ends
will be highly improbable, no matter
what the terms of peace may be.
Now is the crucial time for the allies
to hold fast. A democracy must be
esta blished in Germany before peace
is signed, or it may never be. The
kaiser may give up whatever the al
lies demand, territorially; yet without
democracy to check him, either the
kaiser or the next Hohenzollern will
inevitably try new war of conquest
under more favorable conditions. The
kaiser in the role of peace tempter
should fool nobOdY.~

PEACE DOVE is NEAR?
But Springfield Unions Still Obdurate
BARRIERS Break Deadlock.

Springfield, ILL.,, Sept. 15.-Spring-
field saw the first glimmer of labor
peace today when the BARRIERS union
deserted the ranks of the strikers and
returned to work. At the same time
rumors are in circulation that-if the
city officials permit such a labor dem
onstration as was stopped last Sunday
the general strike will be over.
The rumors of the cessation of the
general strike followed meeting last
night of the local federation of labor,
after which leaders declared that the
strike would end when labor was
granted its constitutional rights
Governor Lowden also expressed the
hope today that the trouble between
the car men and the company would
be settled by tonight.

Congress Pressed on All Sides
for More Revenue.
Deficiency Bill Needs Couple
More Bullion Badly.
MUST EXTEND WAR TAXES
Club Dues, Jewelry, Amuse-
ments, Chewing Gum Are Hit.
Still S3,5OO,OOO 10000 Left Over
for December Term.

Washington. Sept 15.-Pressed on
all sides for more and more revenue.
both houses of congress today were
struggling with bills involving billions.
Representative Fitzgerald's announce
n,ent that additional S2,000,00O,00O
would have to be added to the urgent
deficiency bill was followed today by
demands by Secretary McAdoo for
SS4,OOO,OOO more in the revenue bill
now in conference.
Hinder the rules this added sum can
not be raised by increasing levies upon
profits or incomes, but must come by
restoration of some house provision
stricken out in the senate.
May Tax These.
1t probably will be derived by tax
ing the following: Club dues. 81, 5OO,-
of S19.OOO.0OO now carried in the bill;
chewing gum, $1,0OO.0O0; jewelry,
$1,000, 900; automobile and motor
cycles, S6S,0OO, 900. instead of the
ss0.OO0.OO0 now carried in the meas
ure.
These changes would net $4,000
900 of the amount asked.
The steady demand for additional
funds has stimulated the fight Of
wealthy conscriptionists and they are
now paving the way for a strenuous
assault on incomes and war profits
when the December session begins
work on money bills.
Agitate Wealth Consumption.
Consumption advocates already have
started their appeal for nationwide
support of their campaign. Senator
Borah will deliver the first of series
of speeches on the subject at st. Paul,
Mimi, Monday. His tour will take
him thru several western states. 9th
er friends of the Johnson Borah plan
will go out on speaking tours soon.
Secretary McAdoos statement that
beyond all the billions congress is
raising there is still needed $500,
600 600 more-to be left to the De-
cember session-will be the theme for
the conscriptionists in urging voters to
steer congress away from the policy
of giant bond issues and light draft
upon wealth.
