or Of this county who formerly
lived near Weston. His mother
and also his widow and two small
children reside near Pullman, Wash.
The sorrow Of Weston friends
over his death is mitigated by the
fact that his life was given to his
country--an end most glorious.
The editor Of the Leader received
a card from Private Taylor under
date Of Somewhere in France, April
z, 1918, in which he says:

could be conquered. Many people
helped in removing the furniture,

VOTE AS YOU SHOOT.

Following the days of the late un-
pleasantness between the States and
reaching up to within very recent times
it was no uncommon thing to hear the
expression, 'Vote as you shoot" Ths
"Yellow dog democrat" and the "stal-
wart" republican hewed to the line
marked by the division of '61. It was
enough to know that candidate was
Of 'our kind" Policies counted for
very little except as they related to
Great Question.
This custom had one very noticeable
efect-it served to keep alive burn
ing loyalty to the cause that was fought
for. Today, the old unionist and the
old confederate are equally proud of
their respective records.
The time has come when we-north,
south, east and west-need to adopt
the old slogan, only in modified form.
Let us "vote as we shoot"
All cannot shoot. Possibly there are
some who cannot give much, and some
who can serve but little. But every
qualified American citizen can vote,
and the elections are drawing near.
Leaders, state and national, are to be
chosen. 1t is vitslly important that in
this choosing no mistakes be made.
There Is but one vital issue in the
world today-the crushing and utter
annihilating of Kaiserism with all its
hellishness and all the unspeakable
policies 1t stands for.
Let us not bear the shame of send
ing to our legislative halls, any man
whose complete loyalty is in the slight
est degree questionable. The great
gravity of the situation demands that,
il need be, we subordinate every other
interest to this one supreme demand
utter, unquestioned loyalty to the
country and her cause.
Let NJ vote al we shoot-vote to
free the world from the great octopus
of Hunism; vote to give liberty to the
down trodden of earth's millions, and
to enthroRe right and justice and uni
vsrsal peace. But let Us remember, in
casting our ballots, that there 10 but
one way to accomplish these objects
fight to complete and glorious victory.
Our heroic lads will do the shooting.
Let every American vote back up
bullet.

I island in the West Indies, or coveted
control over the Panama Canal,
might at any time in the future pro.
woke another conflict unless Pan.
Germany is now decisively defeated.
Sooner or later we should clash over
the rights of trade and industry. We
might even expect an invasion of our
own territory While we were still a
neutral, Germany invited Mexico to
make common cause with her, to in
wade us, and to seize Texas, New
Mexico, and Arizona.
Second, a German victory would
mean the continuance of militarism
and the certainty of another war. If
the militarists of Germany win this
war, they can justify themselves to
their people by pointing With pride
to all that armed force has brought
to Germany.
But if Germany remains militaristic
all the rest of the world must arm in
self-defence. Unless we are willing
to devote billions of dollars of our
national income to the construction
of the greatest navy and army in the
world, and accept the harder condi.
tons of life which this expenditure
will necessitate, unless we are willing
to face future wars of even more
speeches. horror, we must fight on
now, though we fight alone, until mil.
itarism is crushed forever.
Third, a German victory would In
the end mean the death of democracy.
Why? Because Germany's victory
will prove that more slowly moving
democracies can be no match for a
highly organized autocracy And
what is more, because the German
autocracy to protect itself will sys-
tematically undermine popular gov
eminent everywhere, corrupting the
press, substituting speakers, control
ling education, encouraging exploita-
ton. and always promoting the reac-
tionaries into industrial and political
power.
Fourth. a German victory would
mean the imposition of a staggering
indemnity upon the United States. II
the war lasts until next August II
will have cost Pan-Germany fifty bill
lions of dollars. If this sum could be
collected from the people of the Unit
ed States, it would take approximately
one-fifth of the per capita wealth of
the country to pay 1t.
There is not the slightest doubt
that Germany will impose an indem.
nifty If she can. In June, 1915, pc.
tition signed by 1,341 leading intel
lectuals of Germany sent to the I'M
perial Chancellor as confidential
document, declared on the subject of
indemnities:
Should we be in the position
of exacting indemnity from Eng
land, which has always been so
thrifty in devoting English blood
to the war, no amount of money
that could be exacted would be
sufficiently large.
The United States has twice the
wealth of the British Empire. and
Germany hates US more. What would
not the German Imperialists do IL
they could lay their heavy, blood
soaked hands upon the fabulous
wealth of America?
Northern Wisconsin advertiser. [volume] (Wabeno, Wis.) 1898-1925, 1918-07-19

However great the sacrifice that
has already been made, and stagger.
ing the price that we shall yet have
to pay, it will cost US incomparably
less to win this war than to lose it.
There is no nation today, not even
England, which Germany hates as she
hates the United States of America.
The Kaiser's naughty threats, re-
peatedly made to Mr.. Gerard,
America had better look out after
this war;" and Il shall stand no non
sense from America after the wal"
must never be given the slightest
chance of translation into action.
Consider the price of our defeat.
Our dead would have died, and our
wounded would have suffered in vain;
billions of treasure would have been
spent to no purpose; international
law, upon the recognition of which
the safety of every nation in the
world depends, would have been over
thrown; might would have tTiumphed
over right, and terrorism would rule
the world. There are at least four
consequences Of paramount impOr-
lance to every man, woman, and
child in America that would follow
a German victory.
First, German victory would
mean the perpetuatlon and extension
of Pan-Germany, the gravest possible
menace to the independence of the
United States. Pan-Germany already
exists. Austria-Hungary, Bulgaria,
and Turkey are today vassals, not al
lies, of Germany, and she intends
that they shall so remain. In 1914,
the German military machine con.
trolled 6S,000,000 people; today about
176,000,0OO people are under the dom
nation of that machine. Can we af'
ford to let an INSCRIPTIONS military
class keep control of a population
that could furnish an army of 100000,
900? Kaiser Wilhelm might send
them forth as in 1914 he sent forth
his Army Of the East:
Remember that you are the
chosen people! The Spirit of the
Lord has descended upon me be-
cause | am the Emperor Of the
Germans. / am the instrument of
the Almighty. / am his sword,
his agent. Woe and death to all
those who shall oppose my will!
Woe and death to those who do
not believe in my missioni Woe
and death to the towards! Let
them perish, all the enemies of
the German people! God demands
their destruction, God who, by
my mouth, bids you to do His
will!
If Germany wins, there is not the
slightest shadow of a doubt that she
will seize the fleets of her enemies.
Then Pan-Germany need no longer
conf1ne herself to Europe and the
Near East. Instead the German octo-
pus can extend its tentacles and
seize the trade routes, lands, and
riches of the world.
Sooner or later we should clash
with her over the Monroe Doctrine.
Germany has never officially assent.
ed to this policy, and more than once
has sought to impair it. The estab-
