THAT OR THIS SIDE.

Those who are making objections to the government sending troops to the other side of the water ought 10 heed the statements made by Secretary Lane of the Interior Department He is q member of the cabinet and in a position to he properly informed He says of the situation
 If We don't fight the war on the other side we shall have 10 fight it on this side of the Atlantic
 That statement is sufficient within itself 10 prove up that we must either help the al ies win this war or 1t will come 10 us, and if it comes to us later when the allies have been whipped. we will have to fight alone.
 Clifford Pinchot one Of the besi. known conservation men in thi. coun. try, and who has volunteered his services 10 his country. sets out clear ly the situation with all of it's terrible conclusions unless we win this war. in the following.
 "The two great weapons in this war are arms and starvation. The war against German arms will be won or lost in France-the war against star yation will be wen or lost in America. The kaiser cannot whip the French and English armies and the English navy. while England has food. But it is still possible that the German submarines may be able to keep food enoQgh from reaching England to starye her into submission.
 "lf the submarines win, the first item in the kaisers terms of peace vii. be the English fleet. With the English fleet in his possession. the kaiser will be master of the world.
 "What will happen to us then? Every man who stops to think knows the an swer. We shall have money, fo d. labor, land-eyerything that is de. sirable in the wordl except the power to protect what we have Experts estimate that it will take us nine months to get ready to meet a Ger man army Of even 15O,000 men, with modern artil cry. Under such cir cumstances, would the Germans treat us better than they have already treated Belgium and France?"
