lterprise-the terrible business of war l-war the most expensive enterprise
 humanity has ever. embarked in, and in this work Uncle. Sam finds it nec- essary to. appeal to his one hundred afd ten million stockho1ders Chat means you and ne) for the money to the cut throat methods of the kali ser. ~:
 | Remember you are, not called. upon to give your money you are only loan ing 1t at per cent. interest with all the wealth of, the country as collateral 1 When you remember that this wealth IS esumated 1t two hundred and fifty
 billions, that the earning capacity of the American people is not short of
 forty hil1ions, and that evey factory, mine, farm,- yes. every haystack in the United States is pledged as secur- ity, you will understand how gilt edge these bonds are as an investment 1 Eight per cent. of the earnings of the
 people of the United States will ab- sorb the entire five billions required. (This would mean $50. on every $1000 | Of the United States to save for their 1 own good. and for the advantage of the government in the successful pros ecution of the war. Number of the Innoesnta Uncle Sam has been a peace low 1 ing indi~idual for nineteen years and In that time has smelt no gun powder; he is likely to smell much and buy l more before this war is over. For years the nnusket of war. and the
 sword of victory have hung peacefully over his mantelpiece: then came a
 terrible insult. the murder Of his inno- cent men,. women and children: the 1 hush Of anger mounts his shock, the
 nau sket and sword are taken down a nd 1 they will not be returned to their
 peaceful abiding place until the Ho- l henzollerns are crushed.
 While the moneys employed in war l by our allies as well as by our enc 1 mics are exhaustlng the financial wealth of these countries and mak- ing the people poorer, our Liberty loan | in enect operates the other way
 around. The people are loaning the
 money to-. the government. and the government in turn spends the money 1 in the United States which puts this vast sum of money into circulation, bringing prosperity to the people: be- sides the money we loan to our allies which is now nearly two billions is paying us interest and will be return ed when the war is over. I have no fear but that this loan will be fully subscribed for-there are enough rich men in this country to take care of that; but that is not what I am here for.
 am here to impress upon you the importance of making this a popular loan as final answer to Germany that the people are behind the gov ernment. and will not end the war un- til a lasting peace is secured. There. fore. it behooves every patriotic man
 and woman to contribute of his and her substance to the utmost limit of our ability in order that this loan
 may be subscribed for not only by i've million people as was the last but by
 twenty-f1ve million people.
 Paid by Germans.
 | The pacifsts in the pay of the Ger man Eovernment-and some Of these are known by names not made in
 Germany-have said this war is un-
 popular. T am not constrained to ad-
 Wars and democracy have never gone
 well together. It is our business in
 this war to make all wars so unpopu-
 lar that no kaiser will ever dare to
 start another -.
 The cost to us at present is about billion dollars per month and while this seems huge sum it sinks into 1nsIsnIfcance when we remember Eng land is spending thirty-five million a day.
 :. Not long ago we. had the first bill non dollar congress, and the demo- about the republicans and their ex, travaeance. In this day of united eff fort there are no republicans and dem ocrats-just seditionists and patriots . Uncle sam never starts anything that he doesn't finish. In IT'S he f1n- ished the crazy King George III: in 1912 he finished the blundering states men of England in 1s4s he finished the rePacious MeIican: in 1898 he Finished the naughty Spaniard and in | 1913 or little sooner he'll finish. the Kaiser, Hindenburg & Co., .. Germany has been called, and with l right the most efficient nation in the even developed the art of blunderins She biundered when she tried to take ! Paris. she didn't do it; she blundared l when she tried to involve us in war |
 
 5lundered when she tried to tsubsidize l the American press for German propa 1 ganda, she didn't do it: she b1undered | when she tried to buy the American | storH didn't do it; but the most egre- | sious blunder of all was made when 1 she tried to corrupt American patriot ism. and she didn't do that, and she l never will!
 That Royal MaIady.
 We have just received word that the kaiser is sick. He is suffering rom that royal malady peculiar to breaking He had it in his system for nearly forty years and 1t broke out in 1914 when he invaded Belgium Now there is an tnterna tionaI physi- clan on the case-Uncfe Sam-and he is sure to cure him. He will prescribe a cleaning out of the bunker System. and then an eternal rest cure ,eans anose sbon,d or us snSh, wi1o want an early those who want the war carried to a finish that will put an end to Prus- sian militarism should subscribe for bonds. for. we should not forget that while soldiers win battles, money Wins wars.
 The great army of the United States is divided into three parts. The miIi- Iant. the indu strial and: the economic. The militant army are. the fighters who risk their lives that freedom may not perish from the earth: the in dustrial army are that great body of { men and women who toll that tbe lighters may be provided with the means to victory; and the economic army are. that home body which must make sacrifices that the sinews Of war ' money-may he abundantlv forth coming. So each Of us has something 4 0 do. and ach of must do that wininsly. Loyalty and pa rfofipa)Iy
