Young men who have become 21 years Of age since June 3. 1918, the last registration day. must now reg ister on Aug. 2. between the hours of a. m and p. m.

THE MOB AND THE CAUSE.


Here and there some one insists thai
the Audubon county people who deal'
vigorously last week with pair OF
citizens constituted mob.
There Is color Of truth IN this allie
cation. And mobs do not always act
wisely. Mob law is dangerous,
But, II men charged with the MAX
ing and execution Of laws arc as wise
az they should be. they will take cog
nizance of the elements which create
mobs, especially like that one which
did business in Audubon.
What sort OF man " II, for illus
tration, that refuses when the coun-
try is at war to do his bit according
to his wealth and his ability? What
sort Of laws do We have for dealing
with slackers?
Tho government asks the people to
loan It sums so vast that every man
with money or credit must put his
shoulder 70 sthe wheel and help. The
sums are specifically allotted to states
and then 70 counties and towns. Au-
duboc county was asked in the recent
Liberty loan % come across with q
specific sum. All other counties were
asked to do likewise. Now in all these
counties a few rich ttshtwads refused
to help. The government asked the
people 70 make the loan but 1t left
them legally helpless to compel an
unpatriotic man to do his share.
Clearly. tho government Is response

TAKING CARE OF IRE SOLDIERS.

| The governor said things were not
! as they should be at Camp Cody. Major
Phllpott says the governors talk was
political bunk" Mayhap both are right.
| There are two sides to shield.
| Everybody that knows anything
about camps knows that heating was
delayed. Perhaps it would be more
correct to say that the men were as
! sembled before the heating had been
| installed for the environments went up
| with a rush. Cold weather came on
early this year and October was cold
| month. So there is no doubt that men
! used TO warm homes and comforts SUI
| fered in the camps But it is also true
| that soldiers expect certain hardships
and that soldering in the fields and III
camps is "roughing it, to a consider
able extent. At worst the conditions
at the camps were not wore than con-
ditions in construction camps, logging
camps, and were no doubt vastly better
than in the field or the trenches or
the camps Of the railway engineers in
France Moreover all was new ana
strange to the boys, The change was
sudden and the hOmesick fellows felt
speaking the reports of men who have
been in camps long enough to AAd
themselves are of good food. good
treatment. good conditions. Anyway it
is reasonable and natural that the view
point and the aims of soldiers and poll
tivians should differ.
A story comes from camp where
considerable pneumonia has developed
10 the effect that men have had 10
stand in line in a chilled atmosphere
stripped TO the waist for an hour
awaiting medical inspection. How often
was not stated but man in the bun
need not stand naked long for often
to assist pneumonia germs on their
way and in their daily work. However
that Is one instance of medical mar
tinet who should be out OF the ser'-
ice. Such instances may occur. Brutes
and martinets are not all dead or dis
covered. The fact remains that in gen.
eral no army ever brought together has
had as much earnest attention LOOKING
toward its health and comfort.
Midway between the politician ana
the officer the people stand behind the
soldier The soldier is the central fig
ure Of this war, very close to the
hearts of the people; for he is their
own. The American soldier is not to
be the plaything of politicians. Neither
is he to be considered merely as can
non fodder" by officers. And in the
end we may trust the intelligence and
citizenship Of the enlisted men OF this
war to take care OF themselves in
general way. They are mighty cap
able bunch.

FORTY DETERMINED MEN,"

Another story from Audubon states
that forty determined men" were
seeking Starck. one of the men who
narrowly escaped lynchng at that
place recently. They searched the
town Of Manning where it was sus-
pected he had taken refuge after being
sent out Of Audubon. A house in
Manning was surrounded and searched.
Starck was not found. I. was said
he had escaped on a train shortly be-
fore.
This case at Audubon seems to call
for Immediate action on the part OF
federal or state officers. II Starck is
guilty as alleged, he should be in
termed or otherwise punished as the
laws provide. Sooner or later unless
the matter is taken in charge by the
proper officers and adjudicated by
process OF law Starck or somebody like
him will be hanged over in Audubon
county by some bunch OF determined
men," a contamination as little to be
desired by those who hold to law and
order as 1t is desired by Starck him
self. Forty or 500 determined gentle
men may make mistakes. Lynch law,
swift as 1t Is in procedure, Is proverb-
tally lacking in poise. We want no
mob executions in Iowa. But II
Starck Is guilty he should be under
restraint legally and properly as one
dangerous to the country in time uf
war. If he deserves hanging nobody
will object to the execution Of the pen
| atty lawfully. But mob justice is a
| ticklish thing.
The suggestion again forces itsel:
that officers charged with the duty
should become az We in suppress sion
Of disloyal talk. And the suggestion
should be sufficiently plain 10 those
| Inclined to toJ>sh and disloyal utter
ances that u cloGe mouth catches M

Men speak readily and fluently of
ideals and of sacrifice for an idea but
the mothers Of men live idealism and
sacrifice for an idea and a faith is
their daily life.
Thousands upon thousands OF
mothers have sent their sons to the
army from a sense Of duty, bid their
boys goodby with smiles that hid the
agony Of their hearts because they be-
lieve in God and human liberty, in the
integrity of this country and hold faith
in its future. The parting Of mother
from her manchild Is a tragedy. He is
hers first bone OF her bone and flesh Of
her flesh as Of none other. She suffered
that he might be. Her pride in him Is
strongest, her hopes for him the high
est her plans for him part Of her ex-
| istence. Nothing that poetry has sung
| or eloquence said exaggerates the
| mothers love for her son as he turns
the corner from boyhood to manhood.
| Her sacrifice is the greatest OF all
and the truest. Commercial advan-
tages and acquisition Of territory do
not sway her. Her sacrifice Is based
on the eternal verities. She gives him
to the greater good simply and in faith
in the purposes Of God. She gives him
to complete his, full manlness, as a
duty she owes the right. He is her
standing Of righteousness.
Good mothers do not calculate sor-
didly where their sons are deeply con-
concerned. She hopes that he will be
prosperous but below that the founda-
tons Of her hope is that he will be a
good man. That Is the fundament OF
every good mothers hope. Against
that no financial advantage personal
or national, holds. She does not look
forward to extension of wealth, power
or territory but to the prospect of a
fine, clean, useful man. And when she
offers him to his country she makes the
holiest sacrifice. He Is her ark of the
covenant. There is depth Of feeling
and height of abnegation in hel
sacrifice that no other can plumb o.
reach. Pride of maturity, staff OF hel
declining years, core Of her heart ant
her hopes from the cradle to her grave

all mankind they are the greatest ant
trnest and finest. God bless them al
