PATRIOTISM

There's a countrywide call in all the papers and magazines of the nation for able bodied single men td bring the army and navy up to war footing. We, from a patriotic stand point, can hardly realize why a nation of one hundred million inhabitants finds it so difficult to secure the small number of men needed.
 We notice that at the employment offices the poolrooms, parks and oth- CT gathering places of the Warren District. are hundreds of single men out of employment. men without any responsibility and no other care in the world but their person. Some of them have hardly place to sleep, and dai- ly tramping over the trails looking for work at the mines and other plac- es rather than to respond to the pat riotic call of their country at this critical time.
 It is to be regretted that the indus tries of the Warren District do not follow the example in this regard that those of England and other countries ldoDted at the beginning of the pres ent war. That is: That any single men looking for employment were plainly told by the employer that heir duty was to their country. Fur her, any young man found shirking and refused to volunteer his services vas sent a white feather by his own -weetheart or lady friend. And this -vstem worked wonderfully for the esults were that they all in shame at naing so ostracized by society, were breed to enlist. Let us show our ~anadian cousins that We are equal D the occasion: let us show the vorld at large that this great nation funded on the principle of Liberty nd Justice, will defend it's rights and Dhold the banner of honor on every fcasion. Our flag has been tram led on, our people have been mur- cred in the coldest blooded manner, IT sovereign rights have been invad- !. which is a sufficient cause to -ousesthe red hot blood in any true merican veins.
 In conclusion, the writer of this ar icle wishes to state that he does not ait for anyone to take his place, as is going to offer his services to bis )untry whenever needed, immediate
 upon settlement of his private af- frs.
 Thanking you, my dear MT. Editor, )r your kindness in the publication 2 this article. am, Sir,
 Respectfully yours,

 With the exception of the First cav Ialry, which leaves for Monterey, Cal, upon the arrival of the Seventh cav airy from Fl Paso, there will be no more removal of troops from this dis trict; neither have arrangements been made for any additional troops, according to Gen Pershing.
