GERMANY MUST FIGHT TO LAST
GASP AS PEACE WITHOUT IN
IDENTITIES is IMPOSSIBLE
AND DANGEROUS"
CHANCELLOR'S STATEMENT
FAILS TO QUIET CRITICS
Socialists and Centrallst Leaders De
mand Immediate Reforms and Pan
Germanists Are Boldly As
sailed for War
Aims.

Zurich, July 11-Dr Won Bethmann.
Hollweg, German imperial chancellor,
regards the formula of peace without
annexations or indemnities as ''im-
possible and dangerous" He stands
pat upon his refusal to state Ger.
many's peace terms. He backs it with
the assertion:
Germany must fight to the last
gasp"
Far From Agreement.
Brief Berlin official statements and
dispatches quoting leading German
newspapers furnished the first insight
into the political turmoil raging in the
empire. They contained brief but sig.
nificant resumes Of the preliminary
battles fought in the meetings Of the
Reichstag's main committee. They
showed that these battles are indie
cisive. Nothing resembling provi
sional agreement was reached.
When the Reichstag met in full SEES
sion the big parties seemed hopeless
ly divided and unequivocally opposed
to compromise.
Aside from fragmentary quotations
the chancellors speech before the
main committee which is being sup
pressed by the German censor the
most important bit of news revolved
around DIR. Matthias Erzberger, the
Centralist leader, who Embossed the
whole storm by his violent attack on
the pro-annexations and on U-boat
warfare in the secret session of the
main committee.
Threatens to Desert Government.
The Catholic leader has repeated
his utterances. He asserted the situa
ton demanded immediate and decid
ed action by the Reichstag.
IF the government does not sepa
rate itself from the Pan-Germanists,'
he threatened, just before the full
Reichstag session, the entire Socialist
party and others will rally behind the
opposition
Reform Move VIII Not Down.
The surrender by the Prussian gov
eminent to the reform movement is
issued from the Teuton capital This
bulletin announced that the Prussiar
government will submit to the Prussian
diet a proposed law granting electoral
reforms instead of waiting until after
the war. The bill also provides for
the universal suffrage and for a limit
ed extension OF the rights Of voters.

A Mutiny at Camp Randall in 1861
Just as all over the United States,
recruits are hocking to the training
camps so, in 1861, Wisconsin's boys
and young men docked to Camp Ran
dial at Madison to prepare themselves
for taking part in the Civil War. AL
though overlooking with patriotism
the soldier boys did not always enjoy
the process of being broken in to their
new trade On June 5, 1861, discomfort
over the discipline imposed upon them
led to a small sized mutiny on the part
of the soldiers. An old diary now in
the State Historical Library, kept by
a student of the University at the time,
thus tells the story: 1.-THE sentry at
the gun challenged the grand rounds
when the officer not giving the counter
sign right he pricked him with his
bayonet, when his gun was snatched
away from him and he pitched in to
the officer with his fists for which he
was put in the guardhouse, which the
Capt. of his company LA Crosse)
having heard, he ordered him to be
taken out; that not being done he
ordered his company to charge bayonets
and the whole regiment being reused
they broke into the guardhouse and
released thd man, and also all other
prisoners who were there

HELPING THE FIGHTING MEN

By organizing a mutual employ
er's and employees association, the
Milwaukee Electric Rail and Light
Company has reduced the amount OF
sickness among employees by one
half. Both employer and employe
apparently consider the investment
we'll worth while from purely dol
lars and cents point of view
After making great gains in the
health of the employees themselves,
the company found it to be a good
business to extend the service to
the families Of the employees as
well. 1t was determined that no
man was as good at his work as he
ought to be if his mind was dis
turbed by thoughts of sick wife or
child at home. In the instance of
the train employees, it is believed
that the company will save itself,
| it's passengers, and the public gen
orally. many accidents which might
ne very cOSCIy Ill uoIid1S anu IL
lives!
That experience offers great
lesson to public officials and the
people generally in the war predlca-
ment in which we now find our
selves. President Wilson, Governor
Philip, State and Local Defense
Councils are urging that our success
in war depends as much upon our
productiveness in various forms OF
manufacturing and agricultural indus
tries as in the strength and effect
| iveness of our fighting men.
Obviously, the health of workers
on farms and in villages and cities
| is a most important factor in deter
mining what the productiveness OF
the country will be. Likewise, in the
matter of economies, if the amount
of sickness could be reduced by one
half an enormous sum of money
would be directly saved.
Every community, every family,
and every Individual can do a great
deal to reduce illness by two
means, first by building UP health
and resistance; second, by prevent
ing disease and curing it as rapidly
as possible. 1t is a patriotic duty
now to avoid abuses which invite
kickness, to eat and exercise prop
erly, and secure proper rest. The Sc
cret of preventing and rapidly cur
ing disease is just as simple. In
general, it consists in discovering
little ills early and removing them
before they become big.
That has been the method of the
electric company 1t is method
that can be equally well employed
by the public if an equal amount OF
will and intelligence is employed on
the Job.
