Some people are inclined not to take the epidemic of influenza that IS now ravaging the country at large seriously enough, while others take it too seriously. In other words, there are some who are careless and indif- ferent of this disease, failing to take even ordinary precautions against it, while others are so nervous and frightened about 1t that they get into a mental condition wherein they are liable to fall an easy victim. There is the middle ground of common sense and practical precaution. This epidemic Is not to be taken lightly. It has swept from the Atlantic to the Pacific coast in an incredibly short time, claiming quarter ot million victims and death toll of more than ten thousand. Strong young men with the best care and medical attendance Tn the best hospitals in the land have died from this disease. On the other hand, probably eighty per cent of the cases have been light and easily and quickly yielded to treatment The disease Is now raging in Arizona, especl- ally in the northern part of the state. The head of our state board of health wires to he Bisbee city physician from Winslow, where twenty deaths have resulted from some two hundred cases, urging him to take every precaution and to urge upon the people of the district their earnest cooper ation to check this malady. Only by the aid and intelligent effort of every one can the disease be checked. Care, courage and caution are three mighty fine preventatlves.

Has the German imperial policy changed any under pressure, desertion and defeat? Is the Hun repentant as he asks for peace9 Consider the murder of some hundreds of Americans on board that torpedoed ship this last week as an answer. The ship was sinking and these men and women were turning to life rafts and boats for safety and they were murdered by shrapnel fire as they fled Consider also the burning of every French village and city and farmhouse as . the Hun is forced back in France. Con- sider the robbers retreating, laden with every species of plunder and spoil from a candIestick taken from a church altar to little girls doll cradle and dresses. Con- slider the driving of Belgian and French citi- zens like cattle, away from their homes and into German slavery. Same Hunl In fact, he Is worse It is feared by allied leaders who are in touch with the battle front that he will commit worse and greater crimes of
 murder, destruction and loot than ever he has committed before And so our work is yet to do. We have still to smite this beast hard enough and long enough to make him loosen his clutch on the best things that humanity holds dear today.

American soldiers fought three weeks to advance two miles west, between the Mouse and the Argonne, and they face hotter fire and harder line than ever now. But will they lie down and quit? Will they? Has Prince Max hypnotized them? He has-not But the American people, facing the fourth Liberty loan, seem to lag and lin- ger and loiter on the way. THIS WAR IS YET TO WIN, and every Tank on the bat tie line knows it. This entire nation has six months more of terrible effort and sac rifice to make before it will have an army in the field of France strong enough to really smash the Cermens and follow ur d victory with a stroke that shall bring disaster. This is true as gospel writ. Oh, that short sighted, thoughtless, careless, easily over wrought people could be brought to see it. Any man who closely studies war map along with the daily dispatches in his hand knows it we'll Unless we can yet bring disaster to the Ludendorff forces before winter, we will have to drive against at least two million men in arms under this keen, resourceful and most able commander next spring. Better face this fact now and strive now, if you wish to win next year.

Prince Max seeks peace and blandly swallows all the fourteen conditions laid down by President Wilson. That is, all ex- cept the voluntary evacuation of any con ouered soil and the giving up of Alsace- Lorraine. Bear this in mind always when considering the machinations of this kaiser clerk. America is pledged heart and soul to fight until Alsace-Lorraine are restored to France and every German bayonet clear ot their borders. Whether 1t be month or a year or two years hence, we are pledged to fight to this fulfillment. Prince Max has been chancellor only a few days but he has already emitted more piffle than any of his many predecessors had been able to spread in as many months Beware of this Prince Max.

That Roulers sector up in Belgium has been quiet for ten days. It Is here that the next great blow is sure to fall for toch will never allow the big gain into the enemy lines at this point to go for nothing. It IS from Roulers and Menin southeast that allied bayonets will drive the Germans from the Lille line, where it Is reported they will try to hold for the winter. Again, only by the development of the Roulers success will the allies be able to close up the Belgian submarine bases for the winter. The sub marine has been very troublesome lately, Big ships are being sunk with heavy loss of lite these days with monotonous regularity. The Belgian submarine bases MUST be taken this-fa Thus will the Hun have to depend upon his frozen North Sea ports alone for U-boat activities all winter.

How are the allies to know2 Will she give up Alsace- Lorraine. Prince Max and the German papers and officials have declared since the last German note was sent that they would not Nor that they would not leave Russia and Poland. This exchange of notes with such power is dangerous, foolish and full
 of complications. Unconditional surrender is the first last and only word to Germany.

Those Americans of the Lost Battalion in the Argonne forest began to eat oak leaves on the third day, but they still held out and replied to German demands to surrender with the well known, emphatic and for from polite American expression, Go to h--ll' These Americans of the towns and farmssof the United States are eating three squares" every day and hold ing cut agairnst the fourth Liberty loan salesmen and salesladies, thus making a far different reply to the German demand to give up the war half won by letting the loan drag and die. How do you suppose those gallant boys of that Lost Battalion would feel if the word were sent to them that the folks at home fai.ed on the loan Why should they eat oak leaves and fight to the end against any odds for us It is high time we, too, ate oak leaves, tigur- atively speaking, in a final effort to carry through the Fourth Loan.
