OTTAWA, Ont. Feb. ga dis

ed Feb. 25 to the Reuters Limited
agency here, says that as the season
allowances and the shadow Of the ex-

it is comforting to know that the
French are ready in every sector on
a long line to meet the blow wherever
it falls.
Behind the French front as behind
the British front, the dispatch says.
the winter has been the time of silent
and methodical preparation. lnnum-
cradle miles of trenches have been
dug, communicating roads have been
improved fresh aud monotrous
growths of wire spring up on every
road and field
ARTILLERY and munitions are ready
in quantities" the dispatch continues.
The Germans have never before en-
countered such preparation, but an
even surer and stronger defense is
the unconquerable spirit of the
French army.

Springfield Republican-The first gov

the danger of mob rule in connection
with war issues and passions is the gov
ernor of Michigan, who has done a
most admirable thing in issuing a pro-
clamation on the subject. In this appeal
Gov. Sleeper said that he appreciated
that conditions had aroused some citi-
zens, but urged all to have patience
and thereby retain the respect of peo-
pies of other governments. I call upon
all our people to make this time Of
stress a period of CAREFUL law 6bserv:
ance,' he said. "The authorities of
each community and county must see to
it that peace and good order prevail
and that that the laws of the state are
upheld Gov. S1eeper's example
should be noted and followed by the
governor of every other state. Some
highly regrettable incidents might thus
be prevented.

to q trial Of violations Of the sedition
