THEME OF ADDRESS
Dr.. Burnett Speaks Before
CiviCS Department of Wom-
ans Club.

Rev. DR.. ]. A. Burnett, in an in
teresting address before the civics
department Of the Woman's club
Friday afternoon on What IS
Americanism ?" said in the course
Of his remarks:
THE study Of this question lays
upon us the necessity OF consider
ing the nature, the ideals and the
limitations OF the state. We must
have some principles upon which 20
base our thought that we are not
deceived by what is superficial and
sentimental.
Patriotism assumes state
worthy Of the best we can give il,
even TO the extent of life, and il is
not a mere rhetorical utterance
when we say that the state, in its
philosophical sense, at least, has
reached its highest perfection in the
nation which we are pleased 10 call
our own. Its history, government
and institutions are stamped with
the genius OF the most perfect
civilization the world has ever
known. Like all states il had its
origin in mans nature for he is a
political animal" a social being.
Wonderfully and graciously con-
ceived, marvelously preserved
through almost a century and a
half, we have been able to work
out many of the great problems Of
social and civic life until America
has become the eye of the world.
The state is not an entity separate
from the individuals which compose
it. AS a collective body the peo-
pie are sovereign, as individuals
they are under authority.
Not Matter of Race.
"Americanism is not a matter of
race. We have been the melting
pot of the nations and diverse ele-
ments. with extensively varying ra-
cial characteristics, have been fused
into our life until they recognize
no allegiance excepting 10 the ma
ton which has transformed them
into larger and better individuals
Nor is Americanism a matter of
geography. There is no provincial
patriotism which sacrifices the in
terests of the whole people.
AN analysis of the declaration
out of which the nation grew re-
veals that Americanism is at the
very beginning the vesting of gov
eminent in the people. Individual
rights. which do not transgress the
TO every other consideration. All
government is under law. The con-
structive work of the colonists rec
ognized this principle, and he is the
truest patriot who obeys the laws
Of the land.
Another expression of American
ism is the distinct separation of
church and state. 1t is the con-
scious sense on the part of the citi-
zen, Of his heritage. and the main
tenance of the highest standard of
life which this heritage imposes.
AT the present time one great
fact stands out in the worlds life.
there is a general movement toward
the ideals of democracy which.
through the years, we have been
endeavoring to set before the ma
tions. Our nation holds in its hands
the fate of the coming generations
and every citizen should be worthy
of his supreme opportunity"

OLYMPIA, Sept. 26. = Altho
Washington state officials are in
terested in the decision Of Judge
Keller, in the West Virginia fed
eral court, to the effect that the
Reed federal amendment making
1t unlawful to ship liquor into dry
territory does not interfere with
the West Virginia quart a
month" law, they decline to ex-
press any public opinion.
1t is conceded that the West
Virginia quart month" law and
the Washington state permit sys-
tenn allowing the importation of
not to exceed two quarts in 20
days are almost identical. If the
West Virginia statute is permitted
to stand 1t is believed that the
Washington permit law will also
be held valid and the permit sys-
tenn restored.
The West Virginia decision is to
be appealed to the United States
supreme court.
However, for the present at
least, the decision has no effect in
this state. Washington and fed
eral authorities have held that the
Reed federal law makes this state
"bone-dry" and that no liquor can
be imported and no permits are
being issued.

DUMBA'S
INTRIGUE,
EXPOSED

WASHINGTON, ID. c., Sept. 26.
THAT the former Austrian AM
bassador Dumba was taking an
active hand in trying to get the
U. S. to declare an embargo on
munitions in 1915, is proven by
papers in government possession
today.
These documents show that he
abandoned hope of getting this
embargo after President Wilson
had declared against 1t. Instead,
he wrote his government that he
was in favor of trying for an en-
barge on munitions when shipped
aboard passenger ships, and cx-
pressed the view that then Secre-
tary Bryan "and his democratic
followers" might be favorable to
such q scheme.
Whether Dumba or Won Bern
storff spent money to influence
congress while the embargo was
up is not revealed. Dumba did
ask his government for $4,000
to finance his press campaign, of
which some revelations have al
ready been made. Papers show
that he sought to cause strikes in
the Bethlehem and Middle West
ern steel factories as well as at
Bridgeport.
State department communica-
ton from Bernstorffs show that
that he denied Germany was try
ing to buy up munitions plants to
thwart the allies, tho he defended
his right to do so, and made fer
vid protestations of his innocence
of any wrongdoing in this coun-
try.

'I'm certainly glad to hear that

President Wilson had asked At

Mooney in the preparedness par

General opinion was that either

wounded in the raids of Monday
and Tuesday night amounted to
los.
The American soldiers and sail
ors brought under the fire of the
raiders wanted to rush into the
street to see the attack at the
first sound of the guns.
The sergeant in command or
dered them first to remain at the
pool and card tables at which they
were playing. Then he COM
manded them to form in line, two
abreast. One man stopped, care
fully racked the pool balls and put
the cards away.
Shells Burst; Sammies Sing.
The sergeant sent his little de-
tachment forward and they
marched out and across the street
to cellars.
While shells were bursting high
overhead and lights sweeping the
sky, the voices of the Americans
were raised in their song of de-
fiance to the Kaiser.
A score of American women
war workers accompanied the sail
ors to the cellars prepared for
refuge during such a raid. They
were just as cool as the men.
When the "all clear" signal
was sounded, indicating that Ger
mans had been driven off, the
Sammies and sailors emerged
from = their cellars and returned
to their games in the Y. M. c. A.
hut.

shall Haig started another often
sive today.
East and northeast of Ypres at
$3.50 this morning we attacked on
wide front, making good prog
ress," he reported.
Elsewhere on the British front
Field Marshal Haig reported a
successful raid last night east of
Gouzeaucourt.
"In the face of strong opposi-
tion," he said, two occupied dug
outs were destroyed and many
other Germans killed by the bay
onet. A few were taken prisoner
and machine gun was captured.
The British assault is the third
great drive which has centered IN
the bloody "Ypres sector in two
months. 1t comes on the heels OF
bitter fighting which was the aft
ermath of a British success on
both sides of the Ypres-Menin
road last week.
Haig's report did not definitely
fix the wide front" over which
his troops went over. Last
weeks drive, which was also
initially described as least of
Ypres," extended for a distance of
about eight miles, four on each
side of the Ypres-Menin road.
British forces gained nearly a
mile advance i9,tbis push.
Then came a period OF German
counter thrusts of extraordinary
violence. Last nights reports
from Haig detailed a day full of
bloody encounters, mostly hand
o-hand, in which the British re-
pulsed these assaults. in. some
places from their own trenches.
The British offensive comma
after the German counter thrusts
had thus been broken up, was re-
garded, as heralding fighting OF a
ferocity heretofore unparalleled
on this front.

BUENOS AIRES, Sept. 20.-
Argentine still hesitated between
war and neutrality today, while
proof piled up that the general
strike thruout the nation was be-
ing actively fostered and aided by
German agents.
Best information available to-
day was that President Irigoyen
would either maintain neutrality
or declare war, that he would not
take the middle of the road course
of breaking relations.
His decision rests with his inter-
probation of Argentine public SEN
timent. A compelling proof of
this public state of mind may be
furnished tonight at a great war
mass meeting scheduled here.
A powerful impetus to the
movement for break has
been given by reports received
