M. M. CORNER.

If there is one thing more than
another we have aimed to do, it is to
refrain from slurring any one, or any
society, so we were much surprised to
hear that a remark in our column, in
Feb. 9th issue of the Pilot, was felt
TO reflect unfavorably on the work of
the Federated Charities.
We are glad of the opportunity to
correct the impression.
What the mothers say and think, :"
are actual expressions, however, Aunt
Hannah admits herself entirely re-
sponsible for the statement in ques-
ton. 1t reads thus: "Wood is still
high in price. We are not all pau
pers,) if we we're we might share in
the benefits, including musty cereals,
marbled potatoes, wagon grease but
ter, ETC."
We see how statement may be
hastily written, and being read in
like manner, may give a false impress
sion.
In regard to the price of wood, we
have not yet learned where any one
can buy it any cheaper than before.
Some say it is only for the city's poor.
Our papers might enlighten u.s.
The wagon grease butter was some
a poor man paid cash for because he
asked no questions -: IL was not
Oleomargarine.
On the question of cereals we are
glad of chance to speak Evidently
the fault is with mills and factories.
Much of the package cereals are stale,
even wormy,-the goods in bulk are
often no better. We bought some
last spring of a grocer, who said he
would not recommend it, it tasted
fresh and good. As a test a glass
fruit can was filled, the top screwed
down tight, and placed in cool place.
At the end of two months a few
worms-apparently dead-were found
ms de
In closing let us state that the
"'dother's Meeting is, and has been
always in full accord with the work of
the Federated Charities as a whole.
We are glad to give out the state
ment of their Sec. that if poor goods
are ever sent out by them they ask
that it be reported TO them at once.
By the NJ. NJ. Sec.
In last weeks corner, the phrase
common food" should read cannon

Why Not Z?

William Jennings Bryan is against
having war, if we can keep out of it.
So are we all. He has had his own
opinions about war ever since the
European and Mexican troubles COM
menced. 1t was because of conflict
with President Wilson on this question
that Mr.. Bryan resigned as secretary
of state. He has the right of every
American citizen to believe as he
pleases, and certainly on the question
of war, only those who can get rid
of their ammunition or make vast
amounts of money IN war supplies,
really want to get into the miX-up.
These spectators are crying for war
all the time, whether there is any
provocation or not. These fire-eaters
claim for themselves the very essence
of patriotism. Some of the large pa
pers of our country also want war, and
some of the smaller ones feel the itch
ing sensation of wanting to shoulder
gun and go hunting after human be-
ings, but the truth is, if there was
a war declared, these loud-mouthed
writer's would be the first ones to
stink into a hiding place, and their
time would be taken up from the out
set, in trying to evade the draft.
Mr.. Bryan says that he will support
the administration to the end if there
is declaration of war, but up to that
time he is going to do all in his power
to prevent war. Surely, there is moth
ing in that stand which should war
rant the abuse han0ed out to him by
some of the brainless want-waridiots
who would run at the sight of a gun.
No one has any use for such, and we
do have few in every community.
Just think what a war means!
Thousands and thousands Of the best
young men of the United States killed.
A national debt which will take gen
erations to wipe out, and the cloud of
sorrow, as dark as night, which will
settle down upon us and never be
lifted while memory lasts.
These war patriots(?) say: What,
are you going to let other countries
walk all over us; slap us in the face
and not resent it? Are we to be de-
prived of our sacred privilege of go
ing where we please on the high seas?"
Our country is in the hands of its
ablest men, republicans as well as
democrats, who are working out these
1nSl Wdul W dNOlO wal
and all the TRADES which can be writ
ten by the shouters but not fighters,
will not swerve them an inch out of
their way in doing their duty to the
American people, as they see it.
True Americans will fight if they
have to, (this does not include the
above named shoutersl; and if the
time ever comes when war is declared,
there will be an united front
So, we say, it is the duty of every
patriotic citizen to further the cause
of keeping out of war" until war
must come and there is no alternative.
If that time comes, then all say with
Mr.. Bryan: IF war actually comes
the administration will have no more
loyal supporter than as long as war
lasts, but until war comes peace will
have no more ardent champion"

PLOT AGAINST THE
UNITED STATES

give general financial support and it
is understood that Mexico is to re-
conquer the lost territory in New Mex
leo, Texas and Arizona. The details
are left to you for settlement.
"You are instructed to inform the
president of Mexico of the above in the
greatest confidence as soon as it is GER
tain that there will be an outbreak
of war with the United States and
suggest that the president of Mexico
on his own initiative should communi-
cate with Japan, suggesting adherence
at once to this plan, at the same time
offer to mediate between Germany and
Japan.
"Please call the attention of the
president of Mexico that the employ
ment of ruthless submarine warfare
now promises to compel England to
make peace in a few months.
(Signed) Zimmerman"
This document has been in the
hands of this government since Presi-
dent Wilson broke off diplomatic re-
lations with Germany.
The news from Berlin admits the
existence of such plot, but claims 1t
is a war measure, and of no value or
Importance unless the United States
declared war against Germany.
The statement given out by the Mex
lean foreign minister says: "The gov
eminent of Mexico has not received in
behalf of the government of Germany
any proposal for an alliance looking
toward war with the United States.
Earlier dispatches. announced that
Japan had received no word of the
plot from Germany or elsewhere and
reiterated allegiance to the allied
cause and friendship toward the Unit
ed States.

Sixty-Fourth Congress

The Gath Congress passed out of ex-
istence on the 4th of March, at noon.
It ended in great excitement-ten SEN
ators filibustered to prevent the en-
actment of the administration bill,
which was in effect to give the pres1-
dent authority to safeguard American
lives and American rights and they
succeeded in doing it. LaFollette, who
was one of the leaders, wanted to UNI
load a dramatic speech at the closing
hours of congress, but he was man
euyered off the floor. He pranced
up and down the aisle and demanded
the right to be heard, but he had no
right to the floor. 1t was LaFolletteS
intention to explain his position, but
he lost the opportunity in his desire
to say the last word during the ex-
piring hours and go down in wave OF
excitement which he intended would
stir up the country from center to cir
conference. What a disappointment
it must have been to him.
President Wilson says he can see no
success in calling a special session
of congress and it probably will not
be called. The naval bill passed, which
however, was reduced from $685., 000,-
900 to 100000.
The 40 8O0-ton submarines were re-
duced to 20.
The senators who blocked the adj
ministration bill were LaFollette,
Clapp, Cummins, Kenyon, Gronna,
Kirby, Lane, Norris, o. German, Var
damon and Works.
The S4th congress will go into his
tory as making provision for for
tifcations, enlarged standing army,
building battleships, cruisers, torpedo
boat destroyers, submarines, etc., suf-
ficient to make the United States the
strongest nation in the world. 1t has
taken an appropriation of over one
half a billion dollars to do this. The
congress has also enacted the cur
rency, ship purchase, Adamson eight
hour railroad, and child labor laws
a law forbidding the immigration of IL
literate aliens; a rural credits law; q
vocational educational law, and an act
recognizing the government of Porto
Rico and extending citizenship of the
islanders. 1t has also closed the mails
to all liquor advertising, including
newspaper advertising. Neither car
letters soliciting orders be carried by
the mails.
Wausau pilot. [volume] (Wausau, Wis.) 1896-1940, 1917-03-06

The big sensation the past week in
this country, in the mix-up with Ger
many, has been plot to induce Mex
leo and Japan to join hands with Ger
many in an invasion of the United
States, in case of declaration of war
by the United States against Germany
Mexico for her reward, was to re-
ceive general financial support from
Germany, reconquer Texas, New Mex
leo and AriZona-lost provinces
share in the victorious peace terms
Germany contemplated.
Details were left to German Minister
Won Eckhardt, in Mexico City, who by
instructions signed by German For
eign Minister Zimmerman at Berlin,
January 10, 1917, was directed to pro-
pose the alliance with Mexico to Gen.
eral CarranZa, and suggest that Mex
leo seek to bring Japan into the plot.
These instructions were transmitted
to Won Eckhardt through Count Won
Bernstorff, former German ambassa-
dor here, now on his way home to Ger
many under safe conduct obtained
from his enemies by this country.
A copy of Zimmermann's instruc-
tions to Won Eckhardt sent through
Won Bernstorff is in possession of the
United States government. 1t is as
follows:
Berlin, Jan. 10, 1917.
"On the first of February we intend
to begin submarine warfare unrestrict-
ed In spite of this, it is our inten-
ton to endeavor to keep neutral the
United States of America.
IF this attempt is not successful,
we propose an alliance on the follow
ing basis with Mexico:
That we shall make war together
and together make peace. We shall

President Wilson has signed the
postoffice appropriation bill containing
the "bone dry" prohibition provision
on Saturday. The bone dry" pro-
vision of the postal bill is the most
far reaching prohibition legislation
ever enacted by the federal govern
ment, in fact il is the first direct leg
islation by the government prohibit
ing the liquor traffic.
At least fourteen states which have
prohibition laws. but do not prohibit
the importation of certain quantities
of liquor for personal use. will be
made bone dry by the new law, which
prohibits the importation of liquor in
to any state prohibiting Its manufac-
ture and sale" State legislation, re-
Gently passed and about to become
effective within the next few weeks
will largely increase the number of
bone dry states.
