If war can be avoided, Presi-
dent Wilson will avoid it. If it
cannot be avoided Presidtut Will
son will vindicate the honor OF
the country and protect as far as
. ,ssible the lives of our people.
He will not concede to Germany
the right to destroy our vessels
without warning and to drown
our people. He will resist with
all the power, with which he is
invested and he will be support
ed by the patriotic people of the
country without regard to parti-
san politics.
That there is 4 small minority
that will condemn the President
whatever he may do. is to be ex-
pected. In the revolutionary
war there were tories, and should
Germany force us into war. we
would naturally expect the same
class to be against the United
States Government.
This minority is composed OF
different elements :
First, Those who from disap'
pointment in seeking Office. bla mt
the President for their failure.
Second. Extremists of bitter
partisan feeling who would op
pose any policy, however good i
may be, if favored by the admin
istration.
Third. Those of German de
scent who can see nothing
good, unless it has the favor o
saurkraut.
Fourth. Germans who hav'
immigrated to this country, hav'
engaged in business here, Blu
still cling to the father land.
President Wilson has exhibite,
remarkable patience and cour
age. He has safely steered tn
ship of State through the break

tors would have plunged US int,

mining and other properties il
