NIT that not all of the Berger vote

the party had attained notable
strength in the state before the war
broke out in 1914. Whatever Ber-

strength will be credited by Demo
Gratis and Republicans to the German
who cares more for his native than
his adopted country-"more for his
mother than his step-mother as 1t

Mr.. Lenroot and his forces have
not attacked the loyalty of the Demo,

though he has been called upon to
defend his attitude before America
