WISCONSIN TOBACCO MARKET.
EDGERToN, WIS.,. Nov. Is, 1917.


November thus far has proven so
mild and pleasant as to work great
improvement in the curing of the to-
bacco and were the fogs less frequent
and the temperature few degrees
warmer the curing would be still fur
ther advanced Every warm day how
ever, helps. Much of the crop is still a
long ways from stripping condition and
it is quite possible that the bulk of it
ought to hang in the sheds until the
early spring months at which time it is
thought most of the fat stems will be
dried out. Growers will be assuming
long chances if the heavy stems are not
kept separate and delivered in bundles
by themselves.
There is little news concerning old
leaf in the local markets these days.
Stemming is the only industry furnish
ing employment about the warehouses
and there is more of this work being
carried on in the state this season than
ever before
The shipments out of storage reach
300cs and cars of bundles from this
market to all points since last report.

Says Secretary Lansing

patriotism, more self-denial and a
truer vision to wage war on distant
shores than to repel an invader or de-
fend ones home"
Briefly Mr.. Lansing recounted the
broken treaties, butchered hostages, de-
molshed communities, which blaZed
the trail OF Germany's path toward
world supremacy as an answer TO any
one who might doubt the probability of
German invasion of the United
States. Before the war, he pointed out,
such atrocities were regarded as i'm
possible, "and yet" he exclaimed, "God
help US, these things have come to pass
and Iron Crosses have been awarded to
the perpetrators
Intrigues in Many Lands
"But there is more, far more" he
continued. (which might be added TO
this record of unbelievable things
which the German government has
done. It only is necessary to mention
the attempt of the Foreign Once at
Berlin to bribe Mexico to make war
upon us by promising her American
territory. It was only one OF many in
trigues which the German government
was carrying on in many lands. Spies
and cons spirators were sent throughout
the world
Civil discord was encouraged to
weaken the potential strength of ma
tions which might be obstacles to the
lust of Germany's rulers for world
mastery. Those of German blood who
owed allegiance to other countries were
appealed to to support the Fatherland,
which beloved name masked the mill
tary clique at Berlin.
My friends, | am firmly convinced
that the independence of no nation is
safe. that the liberty of no individual
is sure, until the military despotism
which holds the German people in the
hollow of its hand has been made i'm
potent and harmless forever. Appeals
TO Justice. to moral obligation. TO honor,
no longer avail with such power.
There is but one way to restore peace TO
the world, and that is by overcoming
the physical might of German lmpe-
rialism by force of arms.
"If enthusiasm and ardor can make
success sure, then we Americans have
no cause for anxiety. no reason to
doubt the outcome of the conflict. But
enthusiasm and ardor are not all; they
must be founded upon a profound con-
victon Of the righteousness OF your
cause and on an implicit faith that the
god OF battles will strengthen the arm
Of him who fights for the right"

Praise for America
British Minister Asserts Entry
of u. S. Makes Clear Issue
of Democracy

London. July 2e.-Confdence that
Russia once more will be brought into
effective cooperation with the Entente
Allies, and that America will in good
time give material aid of overwhelm-
ing power, which will make an end OF
all doubts as to the completeness OF
victory by the Allies was expressed
to-day by Sir Edward II. Carson. min
lister without portfolio, in a statement
to The Associated Press in behalf OF
the British War Cabinet, of which he
is a member. Sir Edward also voiced
the determination Of Great Britain "to
see this thing through until we have
attained the aims we proclaimed at the
beginning" His statement follows.
During the third year OF the war,
which is just ending, two events OF
outstanding Importance occurred which
must have decisive influence on the
last phase Of the war and on the peace
that is to follow. These are the revo-
luton in Russia and the entrance of
the United States into the war in alli-
ance with the Entente powers.
"The immediate effect Of the Rus
sian revolution, from a military point
of view, gives cause for great anxiety
and has up to the present proved dis
astrous. But it must be borne in mind
that the government of the late Rus
sian Emperor was Matching positive
treachery to the alliance and would
have caused much greater disaster to
us by concluding separate peace with
Germany.
Revolution Welcomed
"The revolution, even from a mill
tary point of view, has been far better
than rhe regime which it displaced.
And from a political and social point
of view we in England welcome it
without reserve. We are confident that
the inevitable disturbance which se-
companies every revolution when the
seat of existing authority is over
turned will settle into constitutional
order based en- free democratic insti-
tutions, and that as soon as this is
brought about the ingrained patriot
ism of the Russian people, combined
with their splendid military qualities,
proved on a thousand battlefelds, once
more will bring that great country
INTO line in effective cooperation with
her allies in striking at the common
enemy CT all.
The Russian revolution, moreover,
has drawn a clear cut line between the
contenGing nations, ranging them as
