AMERICAS NEXT TASK.

The next great undertaking of these
United States of America will be the
civilization of Mexico. That task is
one of supreme moment to the world
primarily because of the importance
of the country in undeveloped re-
source and because the people have
been in a state of continuous anarchy
and rebellion for half a century. What
Mexico needs and must have is what
Cuba and the Philippine Islands have
had, protectorate government by Un-
Gle Sans lavish hand at showing them
how to take care of themselves. With
Go1conda riches bullying from the sides
of her mountains and millions of graz
ing lands on our very border Mexico
could prove country of inexhaustible
resources that are needed all over the
world But when America takes over
the job of remaking Mexico it will be
finished product.

POLITICAL TRADING.

One of the smart ways of winning
elections is to "get something on the
other fellow, and then hold it over his
head. There has reached the ears of
the Palisadian statement coming
from a reliable source that in GER
tain borough one of the opposing cam
paigners of a political party APP
preached a so called leader and pro-
posed trade" A trade in politics
is generally selling OUT the other fell
low. In this case the man TO BE
"sold out" was the innocent party to
the deal. The party to the trade was
the one who was the victim of the
squeeze play" by the other side He
had to deliver, fearing exposure.
He did. Further Developments are
awaited.

LiGHTNINe-FAsT ADVERTISING.

The greatest single piece of adver-
Using of all record, so far as lightning
fast results are concerned, was the
false alarm fake report sent out last
week about the German surrender.
The old saying, Twas in the news
paper, and now all the world knows
it." had its most forceful eXemplifica-
across the front pages of the New
York newspapers last week Thursday.
Almost before the ink was dry on the
printed page, the response was appar-
ent Thousands upon thousands OF
people from every conceivable spot in
the great city began to leave their
work or places of business and rush to
some one of the great thoroughfares
to see what truth there might be in
the news that Germany had really sur
rendered. 1t matters not that the
news was false. This editorial has to
do with the facts of the value of adj
vertising The newspapers said the
Germans had surrendered, and this
concrete statement was all that was
needed to start four million people off
on delirium of excitement over the
war being over, as everybody sup
posed. No other medium could have
brought the news so quickly to the
hearts of the millions all over like
the newspaper. 1t was the one medium
that made such sensational outpour-
ing of people possible. Certainly the

A REPUBLICAN PROBLEM.

Sober minded Republicans, says the
ing that organization of house and SEN
ate will not be automatic. On the con-
trary, it is bit of a problem. This
is particularly the case with the SEN
ate, where the much heralded "majori-
ty of two" includes not only Senator
Nelson, who had the Presidents in
dOrsement, but also the unpredictable
La Toilette, whose detection would
leave an exact balance of parties.
Here is one more chance for the new
harmony Gossip concerning the
speakership points towards Gillett of
Massachusetts. This is not due solely
to Representative Mann's state of
health; it is confession that the Re
publicans must put their best foot for
ward if they are to crown their vic
tories of Tuesday by greater one in
1920. But the real test of their quality
is that which eX-President Taft is
promptly setting before them-their
willingness to cooperate with Presi-
dent Wilson in "a policy in the inter-
est OF the country ana the world.
They have been returned to power in
one branch of the government upon
their audacious prOtestations that they
were more Wilsonian than the Demo-
Gratis. We shall see how sincere they
are in this. Any attempt to upset the
general lines of the Presidents pro-
gram for peace and the reconstruction
of Europe will upset their own plans
for a continuance in office.

only just war against the falsest
form of government the world ever
knew. There have been empires and
kingdoms before Germany's time, but
many of these were ruled by just men.
Germany was never true to any ideals.
She represented the most that was
possible in selfish caste and greed.
She wanted a whole world subservi-
ent to her WILL She never had a just
relation with any other government,
for the reason that she made no treaty
that was sacred She violated any
obligation at WILL This is why the
triumph of truth finally laid Germany
low in the scale of nations. Today she
is riven apart, her career ended in
shame.
SO to the Germans still in America,
it may be told with every degree of
feeling and consideration that they
cannot hold to any German ideal and
maintain their own self respect. In
their ignorance they may be led into
the indiscretion of saying word
favorable to the Fatherland They
need not feel that any article in use
could be better made in Germany, for
the Americans do not want to hear
anything about Germany. If Ameri-
can products do not suit these fastidi-
Gus people, let them go without for it
is dead certainty that no red-blooded
American is going to have anything to
do with Germany for a long time, if
ever he does.

A CLOSE AT HOME KAISER.

The world has been filled with the
despised history of the German people
so long that whatever suggests auto
cratic attitude is at once placed on the
list of things not desired. The day of
the autocrat is doomed, so far as it re-
.lates to the government of people.
And yet here at home we have exam
pies of the autocrat in far more intensi-
fed form than we are willing to adj
nit. There are men in office elected
by the votes of the people who rule not
only with an iron hand, but with the
audacity of the devil himself. There
is mayor we could name who is more
of an autocrat than the kaiser in the
heydey of his now inglorious career.
His indifference to the meaning of a
moral obligation is prOverbial, and his
ideas of the standards that should ac-
tuate man of integrity are cheaper
ing to the last degree. The people I'M
der his rulership have about as much
to say in the affairs of government as
if they did not exist or as the Ger
mans did under the kaiser before
America jumped into the ring and lick
ed him out of his hypocritical boots.
When shall we have an end of this
modern near-at-home kaiser? He has
no more right. to the power he holds
than a cur, yet he yields it with a rod
of iron. Promises with him are like
the German chancellor's scrap of pa
per. He has broken faith on every
position and promise of his campaigns
yet the people stand for him when he
should be impeached and run out OF
town on rail-

A WARNING TO GERMANS HERE

There are many millions of Ger
mans in America. Many of these have
no doubt tried hard during the period
that America has been in the war to
live at least on the surface as loyal
Americans should. There is yet an
other element that perhaps will never
be anything but German in life and
German in death. For these there
can be little hope or pity, for they
cannot be even commiserated. They
still believe in the cause of Germany
and have the hope that German prin-
ciples will live again. 1t is just as
well to serve warning on this class of
our population that they will have to
walk mighty straight in the road here
after. The world has been patient
with Germans in this country-far
more so than they deserved. They
should realize that we have waged

him particularly was the scientific
way in which the allied fighting is

Marked With Colors.

Most of the shells are marked with
different colors, according to the ma
tture Of the poison in which Germany
specializes. There were shrapnel
shells. high explosive ptojectiles, with
time charges and other kinds Of am
munition. A rough count showed
$4,000 shells for 77-caliber guns alone.
The number is being rapidly reduced,
as their own shells are being hurled
back against the Germans from the
captured cannon.
The work in the ammunition parks
is extremely dangerous, and picked
men are used for it. When 1 visited
one of these places Saturday two men
had just returned after carrying to

The stuff was hauled to the Ameri-

according to the caliber Of the pro-

charges. There are millions of
rounds of cartridges and all sizes of
shells from 81 millimeter direct fire
guns to 220 millimeter long-range
heavies.
