APATRIOTIC SLOGAN.

A press dispatch from Washington
under date of December 8 reads: ''Win
the war first, then prohibition, is the
slogan of the Women's Christian Tenn
perance union delegates carried when
they left for their homes today at the
close of their annual convention
God bless the loyal temperance
women. They are heart and soul for
temperance, but they put their coun-
try's cause first.
There are those who will claim that
prohibition now will help to win the
war. But national prohibition is a
contentious issue. The main issue now
is the winning Of the war. Prohibition
will come. In many states it has al
ready come. But there are states
where the sentiment is pretty evenly
divided, and there are some states
where the advocates of bone dry pro-
hibition are in the minority.
The patriotic slogan of the Women's
Christian Temperance union expresses
our sentiments.

Things are coming. to a pretty pass
when it is found necessary to arraign
United States congressman and his
son upon the charge Of conspiracy to
evade the draft ac:. Congressman
John M. Nelson and son Of Madison,
Wis.,, are now out on bail upon this
identical charge. However, it is rea-
sonable to believe that Nelson is not
the only congressman who is guilty of
this and even worse offenses. Time
will, however, make mention-at the
next election the people will take a
hand in wedding out congressional un-
desirables who seek another term.
