HAVOC CERTAIN

One does not have 10 make an eX- haustive study of the war to realize that Kaiser Wilhelm has learned well the military tactics of Alexander, misnamed the Great" or of that worlds greatest butcher, Napoleon l.
 The motto of Alexander was: "Stop at nothing that will weaken your ene- my. There will be those that come after. to explain"
 Others of his gentle reminders to ambitious ores were; Everything is forgiven the victor; strike first give no quarter and press home every ad- vantage at whatever cost"
 And the entire history of the great struggle shows that he has been do- ing his best to follow the maxims to the letter while trying to go them one better. Innocence slaughtered, wom- anhood outraged, deceit and duplicity are the evidences that he has done his best to master the lessons of his falsely illustrious forbear and that other living incarnation of murder whose name fills a leading place on the blood stained pages of mar tial history.
 That the Kaiser IS a war paranoiac is clearly evident. When such an one with lovable traits outside his obses- sion gets into place of power, havoc always results.

A CONSCIENTIOUS oBJEcToR

There are d lot of people still run ming around loaded to the gunnels with disgusted criticism of Americas 8 first ngresswoman, Miss Jeanette Rankin, because of her refusal to vote for war on that momentous April day when America decided to cast her lot with the allies.
 Most ofthese critics affect to see in the action of Miss Rankin an angu- ment against the admission of women into the higher political fields because of what is termed their "emotional- ism" In the view of these critical one's, Miss Rankin's display of emo- ton was an evidence of womans in- capacity to face the sterner aspects of life with the same calm considera- tion of the issues involved possessed by the sterner sex, and was therefore a conclusive demonstration that woman is too frail a vessel to be en- trusted with the handling of grave and portentiOus affairs.
 But, we submit that Miss Rankin displayed on that occasion a moral courage worthy of a hero. Her re- fusal to vote for war, instead of being a display of weakness, was really a sign that she possessed moral strength which no lordly opinioned male but should not be proud to pos sesss. It required moral courage of the higher order for Miss Rankin to vote on that tumuluous day on the unpopular side. Her "emotion" was simply an evidence of master courage and did credit to both head and heart. Standing before the bar of national opinion; aware of the tremendous import of the hour and the mighty issues depending upon the decision of that day; knowing that what she was about to do was against the inclination of those who turned expectant eyes upon her from ihe floor of one of the worlds great est administrative assembla ges, she, nevertheless. voted the conviction of her conscience with courage su- preme.
 Her words: Loyal to my country hut cannot vote for war" are worthy to stand with the Presidents Peace

without Victory" or the prayer for Peace uttered by the great Lincoln.
 The man who finds her emotion a reason why she should not have been there-who swells out his chest and says: "A man for a mans job" is a mighty little fellow who doesn't think or comprehend.
