 A committee, headed by Jacob NJ. Dickinson. former secretary of war. who was chairman of the mass meet ing and delivered a key note address was appointed to lay the resolutions before President Wilson. In his ad dress. MT.

If the outrages already inflicted are not sufficient to arouse the spirit of our people. then we are cravens i'm pervious to insult and inevitably will sink into a Chinese passiveism and inconsequence as a nation.
 Calls Paeifists Pests
 Ignorance cannot justly be charg- ed on us. We have so long and so constantly advised people that there has sprung up in our midst a noxious parasite, not from American soil, but attaching itself to the body polite. from which it drags its existence and whose protection it enjoys. mean those so-called pacifists who exalt a general theory of humanitarianism above the country that shelters them and who would denationaliZe us.
 If such pacifists try to terrify us with a cry of ''militarism," if there be such a risk. would take the chances and trust to the sense and strength of our people to deal with our own military rather than suffer the degra- dation and outrage that will come from foreign militarism if We pro claim the shameful doctrine of non resistance.

Why She Hated.

Governor Whitman said at a ban

Germany has the whole world
against her because she has attempted
TO change the eternal verities. The
eternal verities-that you mustn't sink

der babies, that you mustn't betray
your trusting friends, and so forth and
so on-all these things Germany has
tried TO change. But she has tried in
vain
Germany reminds me of the chap
who used to hold out dollar or two
from his envelope every pay day.
His wife suspected him, and to make
suspicion sure, she got q ready reckon

''The next pay day, after consulting
the ready reckoner, she said:
"'Are you sure that's all, GeorgeT

LETS see your ready reckoner,

tossed it contemporary aside.
