THE WAR BOOSTERS.

Wall Street and those interest
ed in what that name implies were
among the first to unfurI flags and
say, go to It, we are with you,
Woodrow" when the break with
Germany came The attitude is
all right, if sincere; but sabse-
qnent events and revelations tend
70 make a dise0rd in any ring of
sincerity the ready aequiesenee of
the Street might have had. For
instance, the following day, points
out one Of many indications Of the
desirability of war on the part of
those who would not do the fight
ing, but would enrich their purses
thereby:
There is no shadow of doubt
in the mind of any fair thinking
man, said Senator Stone, tthat
there is q eabal of great news
papers in this country seeking to
create sentiment and eoerce the
government Of the United States
into an attitude of hostility with
one Of the belligerent powers "
That these newspapers referred
20 are largely owned and con-
frolled by those who would profit
most by war is hardly a secret any
more.

reIs you say they are, ism t it some
what of a knock to your town that
they are still at liberty to figure

We have often been impressed

Every one who has a farm on

worth naming, and should have
pride enough in the same TO give
il name. Why, in many parts
Of the world there are dinky little
patches whose products would
look like the slanged 80 cents COM
pared with crop from one of
these ranches, yet they are hon
ored with a name and that name
vastly adds to their Importance.
