AT WAR WITH
GERMANY SAYS
u. S. SENATE
War Resolution is Passed by q
Vote Of So to 6-Debate in
the House Today
WILLIAMS FLAYS LAFOLLETTE
Plans for Army Numbering Millions
Placed in the Hands of Presi-
dent Wilson

The war resolution was passed by
the senate last night by vote Of 81
to 6. 1t went to the house this morn
ing where debate will continue until
action is taken.
The text Of the resolution follows:
whereas, the imperial German gov
ernment has committed repeated acts
Of war against the government and
the people of the United States of
America; therefore, be il
Resolved, by the senate and the
house of representatives Of the United
State Of America in congress assem-
bled, That state Of war between the
United States and the imperial Ger
man government which has thus been
thrust upon the United States, is here
by formally declared; and that the
president be and he is hereby author
lied and directed to employ the entire
naval and military forces of the United
States and the resources of the gov
ernment to carry on war against the
imperial German government; and Co
bring the conflict to a successful ter
mination, all the resources of the coun-
try are hereby pledged by the con-
gress Of the United States"
Senators who cast the negative
votes Were Gronna, of North Dakota.
LaFollette of Wisconsin, Norris of
Nebraska, Lane of Oregon, Stone of
Missouri and vardaman of Mississip-
pi.
Action in the senate came lust after
IL o'clock at the close of debate that
had lasted continuously since 10 o'clock
this morning. The climax was reach
ed late this afternoon when Senator
John Sharp Williams denounced a
speech of Senator LaFollette as more
worthy of Herr Won Bethmann-HolI-
veg than of an American senator.
The passage of the resolution was
not marked by any outburst from the
galleries and on the floor the senator's
themseles were unusually gr.,a-,
quiet. Many of the.,n-

had the president listened to some Of
the popular demands the break would
have come months ago.
America, he said, had been willing
to overlook the violation of interna-
tional law, the despoilation of Belgium
and the treatment of other small neu-
trails, the killing of noncombatants,
and the destruction of commerce and
that it had only drawn the line at the
reckless and wholesale murder Of our
citizens.
Postmaster Averill Beavers, speak
ing on Meeting the Crisis" made a
strong appeal to the people to stand
Loyalty back of the country's leaders.
He said the time had come to call a
spade a spade, time for every man to
stand forth and be counted and time
to count that man who was not for
this country as against it. There were
thousands of people in this country,
he said, who by reason Of blood and
birth, had been profound sympathisers
with Germany's cause. "We still re-
cognize the right Of these people to be
pro-German in their sympathies as
between Germany and any other Euro
pean country" said he, sbut as be-
tween the United States and Germany
only one sentiment can be tolerated
and that sentiment must be pro-Amer-
ican."
He urged the people to keep their
eyes and ears open and to promptly
report to the proper authorities any
suspicious act or word on the part of
any person. The speaker was fre-
quently interrupted by applause.
A. R. Gardner read an original poem
which at that time had not been given
a title, but which since has been named
"Why We Fight" Upon motion of
Mrs. s. M. Henderson the meeting
voted to request the publication of
the poem, and it is printed on the ed
itorial page of this issue.
I. One of the features of the rally was
a street parade. This was not on the
program as outlined by the ladies, but
was gotten up on short notice by May
or Geo. w. Sherk and Councilman Geo.
Tweedt. Headed by hastily formed
fife and drum corps, more than fifty
automobiles, each flying the Stars and
Stripes, paraded up and down Second
street. Conspicuous in the parade
We're four grizzled G.. A. r. veterans
and the handsome S. G. Cosgrove
memorial flag of the local post. These
veterans were given places Of honor
on the theatre stage.
Much of the credit for the success
of the rally is due to Mrs. Sheppard
and Mrs. Thomas McKain, who were
working as special finance commit
tee of the auxiliary.
M. w. Mattecheck made no charge
for the use of his Theatre and gave
up his regular first show period.

AFTER STRAWBERRY BUGS
Professor Yothers of Pullman Inspects
Kennewick and Richland Patches

Professor 1Others OF Pullman lnspects
Kennewick and Richland Patches
Professor Yothers, of Pullman, who
together with Prof. Melander, spent
several weeks here last summer in
studying the habits of the strawberry
root weevil in an effort to find some
method of protecting the patches
against its ravages, is in the Kenne-
wick Valley today.
Prof. Yothers has visited several ber-
ry patches and says that he finds that
the weevil, which is now in larvae
stage, is still here and that the grow
ers must put forth every effort possible
to protect their patches. The only ef-
fective method yet found to cope with
the pest is by fumigation which was
fully described by the college men
when here last year. The experiments
however, are to be continued this year.
Prof. Yothers will go from here to the
west side where the weevil has been
in evidence much longer than here.
