REPORT YOUR INCOME

H. A. Baldwin of the First Ma
tional Bank calls our attention to the
fact that the time for reporting In
comes has been extended from March

not yet made a report of incomes
should do so before that time, to avoid
future unpleasantness. Single men
with incomes of one thousand dollars
or more per year should report, as
also married men having incomes OF
two thousand or over. These reports
should receive immediate attention.

BRISBANES APPEAL TO WOMEN
VOTERS.

tCedar Rapids Republican,
David Lawrence. a writer who halls
from Tennessee having had some
thing to say about the effect of the
defeat Of woman suffrage on the DEM
ocratic party in this coming election,
Arthur Brisbane undismayed by the
humiliating revelations that were re-
Gently made in the affai. of the Wash
ington Times, burries to reply as fol-
lows:
Any woman voting against the DEM
ocratiC ticket this year votes against
Woodrow Wilson, Commander-i in chief
Of the United States army and navy
let that he remembered.
Any woman voting against the dem
ocratic party this year votes against
the president Of the United States,
votes to weaken his influence in con-
gress. votes 20 increase his difficulties.
This is the idea that vas recently
expressed in the platform of the DEM
ocratic party in the state Of Illinois,
1t is trying 20 recall the flaming post
ers that were put up at Camp Grant
in the senatorial elections in Wiscon-
sin last spring. posters on which 1t
was declared that the president as
communicative chief of the army and
navy was asking the soldier boys to
vote for the democratic candidate to
win the war. That poster has since
been repudia;ed by Mr.. Tumulty for
the president 1t is admitted that its
use was not only unauthorized, but
that it was scandalous, a misuse OF
the office of the president, made by
cheap politicians in Wisconsin and IL
.linois. -'.. II
There is no such issue involved in
the present election. To vote for the
war and for winning it, ii is not nee
essary to vote for any one party. 1t Is
villainous for wild men like Brisbane
to try to make out that one party is
loyal and the other Is not. All parties
have been loyal in this war and the
republican party has fairly We'd with

TIE w" wa IS GAZING ~.

Thank God. We will now get our
boys back exclaimed the nation in
heartfelt gladness at the first news
that perhaps the war was over. 1t
was the natural parental emotion at
the first joy OF possible deliverance,
but today wisdom restraints our i'm
pulses and VIC are as determined as
ever that the war can not end until 1t
ends rightly. The murderer has at
asst offered to stop numbering but he is
still a trespasser upon the lands OF
our friends armed to Kill and he has
not yet been punished for the murders
he has ben committing. 1t may be his
desire TO surrender Internationally
and il may be that is trying to drive
bargain which will save him from that
surrender. At any rate the war is not
yet ended and we must console our
selves with the hope that the be-
ginning of the end may have come.
There weeks ago Austria asked for
a conference TO talk about peace and
President Wilson replied that the fight
would 60 on until the. central powers
were willing to accept peace upon the
terms which he had previously out
lined. The next day Bulgaria sur
rendered Internationally opening Aus
tria to attack from the rear. Turkeys
army has since been captured while
her forts have been cut off from Ger
man aid and this last week the Hin
denbury line Of forts protecting the
German army has caved in Now Ger
many and her allies are willing TO ac-
cept peace, as they say, upon Presi-
dent Wilson's terms.
Those terms were generalities to be
he followed after the German army
had surrendered and the power of the
entente allies to enforce the settlement
should stand unquestioned before the
world. How to arrive at them while
millions OF armed men are still able TO
resist IS another problem. However.
Germany has sued for peace. The
kaiser tells his army that. their Mace
DOMAIN front has crumbled and they
must sue for peace but he talks about
an honorable peace. The war may go
on which will cause Turkey 10 sur
render unconditionally as Bulgaria did
when Austria's bid was denied. Then
the Salcniki army will invade AVS
trIa and next spring Austria will sur
render. or. perhaps. Germany's cry Tor
peace will cause the entente allies to
name specific terms as to surrender OF
hcr army or evacuation of France and
Belgium as an evidence of good faith
before peace upon President Wilson's
terms can even be discussed. Germany
may then grab at any terms 10 quit or
she NAV continue the fight hoping for
easier terms.
1.-THE war may yet end before CHRIST
mas and it may 90 on turnout another
year. Nobody knows but viewed from
Germany looking out it would seem
that the roof of the earth was falling
in.

| Ukraine Is In a state Of anarchy and
northern Russia Is starving. Where
has Germany to look for even a glim-
mer Of hope?

and money which are the real test OF
strength rather than the acquisition Of
fcred most and must suffer more Sc
vcrely as the war goes on. She can
not replace either men or metal. There
remain but two things before Germany.
She can shorten her lines and make a
shambles OF the territory just outside
her boundaries and Of her own soil.
That is che only thing Germany has to
trade for lenency in peace terms-her
power to continue killing.
Germanys one desire now is to avoid
being utterly broken. The ruling class
desire some concessions that will afford
them opportunity to go to The common
people OF Germany with a camouflage
of honorable peace" 1t is the only
way the rulers can avoid complete dis
crediting of themselves Perhaps 1t is
the only way TO save the empire and
dodge a republic.
There is also the economic side 10
be considered. Germany did not desire
to fight America. She made the ulti-
mate mistake when sh gambled that
America could not be forced into he
war. The future commercial relation
snip with America and with the woril
for the matter of that is worrying Ger
many She knows that she can not
defeat America. She knows that it
would be commercial disaster if she
could and that If she holds out until
she is utterly crushed by America that
the result will be practically the same.
The attempt OF Germany TO find
peace will not stop F>och and his armies
in their forward push. The war will go

of escape. There will be no armistice
that will give Germany opportunity to
shorten her lines or improve her mill
tary position At home there must be
the same determination and the same
offensive carried on The war isn't
over. The end is not in sight Ger
many will have little TO say as to peace
terms. The allies will write them. And
such terms as Tiger ClemenCeau
and Lloyd George may agree to will
probably be found satisfactory to Am
erica.
But there is no doubt that Germany
is anxiously feeling for peace. But she
is as anxiously seeking some way
whereby she may camouflage the bill
of costs in men and money and pres
tige and trade that must be presented
to the German people for payment
