m
" poet. l can distinguish at least
n three men in President Wilson.
There is in him, first, the Christian, the
descendant of English Puritans. Grand
son of Scotch Calvinists, he is heir to
high and rigid moral and religious tradi-
ton. He possesses a conscience; ne con-
suits it before acting; he submits himself
10 It's decisions. When duty has spoken,
he follows it without looking backward.
Hence comes the solemnity of his utter
ances; hence, also, the austere unity OF
his conduct
To character Of such a stamp nothing
IS more insupportable than lying. Mr..
Wilson had been duped long enough, per-
haps. By German perjury, but after he had
discovered the truth, after he had learned
Of the plots Germany was fomenting, the
intrigues she was multiplying, the engage
ments she was violating, his honesty re-
VOTED against German criminal duplicity
and in all probability precipitated his final
decisions.
THIS high conscience which reproves
4 and condemns is not based on ration
alistic and secular" inspiration alone.
As it stands for the rights of humanity,
it also does not fear to speak of God 1t is
Of a religious origin, almost theological.
His attitude toward immoral Germany
is similar to that of some of the Popes of
me Middle Ages toward the evil doing
grandeur of the flesh He places her
under the ban he communicates her;
and his notes and messages are real en-
cyclical letters, fortunately supported by
n formidable cannons and innumerable bay
yorets.
This great Christian is also a jurist
pacifstic jurist. Formerly pro-
nssor OF law and president of Princeton,
he has retained his liking for judicial ar
lamentations Of a slightly abstract nature.
lie believes in the practical effectiveness
Of mis- intellectual creations and is always
astonished if they do not Immediately gain
the adhesion of wills and hearts. . =.
, Ut there came 4 day when he had 10
ID render 10 himself an account of the
matter. What weight can a judicial thesis
have with people who take pride in deny
ing their signatures and in tearing up the
most sacred treaties? How can peace be
made with a nation which is determined
20 wage war, and is we'll armed 20 do so?
Unarmed pacifsm is dupery and lie.
The day when Mr.. Wilson realized the
truth of this fact and realized Germanys
baseness he found himself different man.
The iurist became justiciary. The paci
fist became firm supporter Of war. And
without renouncing his ideal, but putting
IL of for the future, he resolutely entered
ne fray "up to his ears
He entered the war with an enthusiasm
that occasioned great surprise over here.
He realized that the more decisive the
American Intervention the grester will be
his personal authority in realizing his
dream, in laying the permanent foundation
of the Society of Nations"

sENsELEss DESTRUCTION OF BEEF
CATTLE

Warnings have been published and
circulated concerning the indiscriminate
slaughter of beef cattle in the west. IL
is said that cattle raisers are even sell

beeg being great, and prices unusually
high.
If we carry on the present war sue
Cessfully there must be as much saving
as there is spending. The old fable
about killing the goose that lays the
golden egg has application right here,
Beef cattle as a rule are prolific and
two year-old heifers are relied upon to
bring calves near that age. If there

States can be supplied with beef. If
there is slaughter of cows and heifers

never knew the price of butter to

so cents pound directly after the Civil
war and even higher. but the southern
people managed to keep some beef cat
tie to start with after hostilities ceased,
and there was some butter and milk

often took a beef COW to pay for bar

slaughter of stock cattle as is now re-

COUNTY FAIRS.

1t became a serious question this
wear. whether it would be possible TO
hold county fairs, so many of the farm

the future and such scarcity of farm
labor to gather the crops and prepare
for exhibits.
Nevertheless the patriotic citizens
of these various counties plucked up
courage and made the effort. Remark
able success has attended their endeav-
ors and the people have flocked to
them. Children enjoyed them more than

CHICAGO, oct 1.-THE consumer, al

Cereals have gone to unheard-of|

the producers of live stock tell us they
