BurnQuist is a weakling and those

and therefore the mighty effort to

It is freely predicted that Burn
quist, his safety commission and
his plunderbund, have overplayed
their loyalty stuff and that it will
react upon them by giving the other
republican candidate the empty
honor that will be contained in the
republican gubernatorial nomina-

We haven't any interest in the

THE WEAPON OF HATE

The Tribune naturally agrees with Max Ehrmun. In so many words he says that the sooner we drop half-and-half measures the better. The sooner We talk hate act hate and dispense hatred to the Hun the better.
 There is mo need for further camouhage. We dcspisc the kaiser and his government; we are out to sweep what he and it stands for from the globe.
 And we need feel our hatred of these things day by day and bare our arms for thc blow that will end them.
 Who can view the starving children of many nations; the widowed women, young and old; the mothers who will never see their sons again; the mighty sepulchre of soldiers; the corpscs at the bottom of the sea without feeling hate arise in his heart
 Even Gcrman-bom citizens of this coun- try are consumed with hatred of the kaiser, the responsible head for this world-cata- clysm.
 The other date Max Ehrman wrote the following in the New York Sun:
 The kaiser spares his own sons, yet up- on his head is the blood of ten million men, In Dante pictures of hell he has no equal. He is the brutal soul of savage beasts put into human shape, the maddened dog that learned our common speech, a viper stand ing upright, clothed as man. For vanity he set the world aflame.

 Our troops here at home are in wretched blight. There is little clothing for them. Less than 30 per cent of the men have prop r shoes. "So it happens that only half of he men can be sent training at one time. On their return. the others will put on their boots

But this country romance has been
blasted. Miss King yesterday filed

says: ~rhat the plaintiff and defend

has always been ready and willing
TO marry the defendant. yet the de-
fendant has neglected and refused to

claims $4,000 damages"
Further than this the plaintiff re-
