Your Flag and Ny Flag

The banner breaks in glory the breeze
The trumpets sing from all their brazen threats
chorused chant of thrilling harmones,
The drumbeats throb amid the ringing notes
An echo, but growing echo; yes,
An echo that is flung from hill to plain
An echo that shall never grow the less,
Born from the chord that not struck in vain.
The diapason of the booming guns
Blends with the shriller sounding OF the cheers
All, this had been foreheard by those great ones
Who planned the structure in the former years.
Who dreamed and dared and gave of wealth and life
That this great nation-song should never cease,
Who blent the surging song of somber strife
With all the after of honored peacel
And so today the southland and the north
Clasp hands with their bloodbrothered east and west
And in the mighty song their lips send forth
The fullness of our faith is all expressed.
And deeper than the very deepest chord
Are the foundations laid in days agone
When for hearth and home and manhood varied
The truths nation has been builded on.
And higher than the farthest reach of song
That quivers in the bosom OF the sky
There flames the flag of faith above the throng-
The flag whose plan and purpose cannot die.
The flag of promise floats from sea to sea,
The buges shout in answer to the drum
And send of strength to you and me
From days that were and are, and are to come!

Recent frosts have left their evil
dences on some of the garden plants
such as tomatoes, caulflower, etc.
The cold weather has also had a very
marked effect upon the fly nuisance,
and thus we have an evidence of the
truth of the proverb, "There is never
any very great loss without some
small gain"

COMMISSION PLAN GROWS

The growth of the commission gov
ernment plan is shown by the fact
that on October 1, 1916, 352 cities and
towns of all sizes were governed by
commissions. Sixteen years ago a
great flood caused Galveston hurriedly
to put its affairs in the hands of a
commission. 1t was then the only
city in the country with that form of
government.
Calamities of nature have forced
the plan on several cities, and they
found it so much better than the coun-
Gil system that it has been retained
Memphis, Tenn, during a yellow
fever plague in 1873, was placed un-
der a commission by the state. AL
though this was only temporary, it
was the first try-out of the plan.
Commission government seems to
flourish best in the Middle West, as
Kansas leads the states in this re-
spect, having forty cities with gov
erning commissions Few cities have
discarded the plan after trying it,
and most of those which did took an
other step and now have city mana
gers.
The city government is business
and one of the biggest businesses in
the city. Irrefutable arguments for
the commission plan are that it is
business-like, efficient and economical.

HOW TO BRING ABOUT
A GERMAN REVOLUTION

socialistic and have preached legality
(the kaiser's law), while discipline
has been their God. They have taught
obedience to the Socialist leaders
who-as we have seen-obey the
kaiser.
Think They Are VictOrs.
Nor has the war brought the Ger
man revolution nearer-as yet. The
whole German nation is under the
impression that Germany has been
steadily victorious and the Socialists
and the revolutionists have publicly
announced that this is their view
also. Now military victories make
an excellent basis for the German
made peace-fOr which all German
agents are now agitating. But they
; are not exactly a favorable soil for a
German revolution-as August Bebel,
the great Socialist leader, pointed out
only few years ago.
The view of well-informed Germans
is that of Victor Berger, who, after
making the usual German claim that
Germany would remain victorious on
land, concludes that there is no
prospect of a revolution in a victo-
rious Germany.
Dt,t lnt mil wi
their very memory be wiped out by a
series of equally numerous and de-
cisive defeats and the country may
begin to move towards revolution. The
military caste will never yield-except
under compulsion. That compulsion.
implying the complete reversal of
military discipline, can scarcely be
expected from militarized and nom
revolutionary people like the Ger
mans. The pressure will have to
come from without.
Must Smash Kaiser.
1t may be that a German revolu-
tiOn is near, or it may be that a Ger
man revolution is far. One thing is
certain-that the only hope of such
a revolution ms smashing and ire
trievable defeat for the kaiser's
armies.
The German revolution is already
being fought for-by the revolution
lists of Russia and the descendants of
the reyolutionists of France, Italy,
England and the United States.
Kaiserism left the worlds great de-
mocracies no choice. They had either
to allow themselves to be robbed of a
large part of the benefit of their own

Is a revolution at hand in Germany,
The Russian extremists go so far as
| to assert-against all facts-tha1
Germany is already "ablaze" with
revolution. And nearly all Russians
seem to be convinced that the Ger
mans will surely follow their exam
pie, and do to the kaiser what they
did to the car
In this connection it is eminently
worth while to note the differences
between Russia and Germany. Here
are a few of the most glaring:
Russia has been revolutionary for
half a century; it is more than half
a century since the last spark of rev.
olution died out in Germany.
The recent Russian revolution an
nounced itself by thousands of pre-
liminary outbreaks, spread through
more than a decade; Germany has not
produced single revolutionary out
break in sixty-seven years.
The majority of well-informed OBJ
servers had long predicted a revolu-
tion in Russia. No prominent Ger
man, and nobody who knows Ger
many, dreamed of predicting an early
revolution in the Fatherland-until
this war arose, and the wish became
father to the thought.
Few German Revolutionists.
The Duma elections as long ago as
1906 indicated that 80 per cent of the
Russian people were revolutiOnists
The revolutionists in Germany, a
minority of the Socialist party, prob
ably do not number half a million al
scarcely one per cent of
the German people.
In Germany it has been customary
for a handful of Socialists to sit a
few months in Jail for such mild mis-
behavior as lese majestic In Russia
hundreds of thousands of the flower
of the country have languished in
prison or exile, while tens of thou
sands have died, not for innocuous
verbal criticism of the government,
but for revolutionism.
The Russian Socialists are all rev.
olutionists. The German Socialists
95 per cent of them-have actually
attacked revolutionism as being un-

WEST AND EAST

The hysterical East, unpatriotic as
compared with the peace-loving but
intensely patriotic West, is thus
sharply criticized in the New York
Independent:
'It would be well if the East could
be made to understand that one rea-
son why the West is reluctant to en-
ter a war is because it feels that it
will have to do more than its fair
share. The common saying used TO
be: THE East is always getting the
United States into trouble and then
leaving it to the West to do the fight
ing If this assertion is challenged,
the Westerner would point to the
more than filled their quota by volun-
teering while Eastern rioters were re-
sisting the draft, and to the Spanish
War, when the young men of the West
answered with enthusiasm the call to
the colors, while in New York City,
which boasted of having made the
war; two regiments of the national
guard refused to serve.
THE British dominions have some
thing of the same feeling as our
West, that England involves the en-
pire in war and then, in Kipling's
phrase, she fawns on the younger ma
tions for the men that can shoot and
ride Where the fighting is hardest,
in Gallipoli, at Arras or on the
Somme, the names of Australians,
New Zealanders and Canadians figure
most in the dispatches.
However exaggerated this feeling
is, however unwarranted it may be.
it nevertheless exists, and if Eastern
ers refuse to recognize it they will
have to reckon with it. If the East
ern newspapers keep up their custom
airy jibes at the West during the war
the rapidly widening breach between
the two sections will seriously impair
the unity of effort of the United
States"

RAILROAD COOPERATION

Every now and then we read of ac-
tions of railroads which cause US to
believe that they are not heartless
brutes, but corporations with souls.
The other day the directors of the
Atchison, Topeka and Santa Fe rail-
way voted to advance money for the
purchasing of seed wheat for needy
farmers along their lines. Instead of
the local banks being compelled to
carry the burden, the railway will
shoulder it.
The plan is to lend the farmer

lined by President Wilson-to brine

money in the local banks to cover all
loans made to the farmers for this
purpose. Such actions not only Gre

business, but they show that the rail-
roads realize the value of the farmer

Vacations and the
War

lhe man who counsels against taking a
vacation this summer because this country is at war
is simple-minded.
Not only is it stupid policy to curtail nor
NAL circulation of money throughout the country,
but far stupid it to jeopardize our citizen
health and happiness
We shall need every ounce of vitality we
possess to carry the burdens we have assumed Rest
recreation, and recuperation are important in main
tanning our individual and national stamina. Our
man-power--and woman -power---is going to be
pushed to the utmost, and it is just as patriotic to
safeguard health as it is to safeguard liberty.
Vacation trips also stimulate the vitality of
commerce and industry and help foster prosperity.
This is particularly true that foreign shores are
closed to tourists
Secretary OF the Interior Lane says: cit is
even more important now than in times of peace that
that the health and vitality of the nations ctzen-
ship be conserved"

ton habit-7He Chicago T,15uue.

Sayings of the Day
to them.

You must understand that the
United States stands in a relation to
Russia different from that of any
other country. The activity of Great
Britain in the war is to Russian eyes
of obvious origin. Russians also un-
derstand that, while France is fight
ing for democracy, it is also fighting
for Alsace and Lorraine. Italy is
generally, although know erroneous
ly, viewed as fighting only for Tren-
tino and Trieste; but the first propo-
stion that the Russians heard in re-
gard to the United States and the
war was that the United States had
come in for disinterested purposes
Charles Edward Russell.
Before our nation enters a war it
is proper to discuss the wisdom of
going to war, but the discussion is
closed when Congress acts. After
that, no one should be permitted to
cloak attacks upon government, or
aid to the enemy, under the claim
that he is exercising freedom of
speech. No sympathy can be wasted
on those arrested for unpatriotic ut
terances. They abuse free speech.
And this applies to attacks on the AL
lies as well as attacks on the United
States. We can no more allow our
Allies to be crushed than we can af-
ford to be crushed ourselves. The
defeat of our Allies would throw the
whole burden of the war upon us.
We must stand together and fight it
through. There are only two sides
to a war. Every American must be
on the. side of the United States.-

Washington. April 24-The first
American loan to the allied nations Will
go to Great Britain. The amount and
other details probably will be made
public by Secretary McAdoo within a
few days. Whatever the sum. the
amount will be available out Of the
proceeds Of the $4,000. OO0. 900 bond is
sue soon to be offered to the public. OF
which $3.OOO.OO0,0OO will be loaned to
the allies. ..
Announcement to this effect was
made last night at the treasury depart
ment after q day crowded with con-
ferences participated In by Secretary
McAdoo. federal reserve board officials,
American bankers and bond dealers,
and official representatives Of Great
Britain and France.
Another development was the an
nouncement that the size Of the first
issue Of bonds authorized under the
81, ,000, 100000 war finance measure will
depend largely on the immediate needs
OF the allies. Reports as to this have
yet to be received in detail.
The entire s5.00O.00O, 900 of authorized

sum. according to present tentative
