seem out Of question to comply with it.
But that's war! That's what the St.

it let them accept it without whining,
just as they demanded that drafted men
asked to give their lives, their all must do.
Stop bowling, St. Paul, and come across
with your super-excellent brand Of pa
triotism. It strikes us as the height of
irony for St. Paul to be sending commit
tee to Washington to pledge the support
Of the city to the war, and before they
arrive to have the folks back home set
up such hue and cry because they are
asked to make sacrifice for the sake
of winning the war. Sounds good deal
like the words of the woman who said
her two boys should not be called to
serve in the trenches because there are
"plenty of poor peoples sons. too many
Of them, in fact and it is just as well
if few of them are gotten rid of. Much
of the rampant loyalty in this country is
of that brand, and some OF it is going
to get smoked out before this war is
over. t

Belittling the Non-partisan league
movement and denying them the use
of meeting places as is done quite fire.
quently in this state, is not going to
stop the movement On tie contrary,
it is bound to have the opposite effect.
This opposition will drive men into the
fold of the Non-partisan league, who
would otherwise have never dreamt
of joining. We have always taken the
position that every one should have tie
right to express his views and honest
convictions at any time. If he has no
message for the people he will in a very
short time have talked himself to death.
If he has a message he should be heard.
Our professional men have no mortgage
on the gray matter supply in this world
and it may be barely possible that some
one of the common people" in home
spuns, may have ideas on economic
questions which if put into practice,
might revolutionize things. We do not
know definitely what the Non-partisan
league stands for, but we do know that
they have right to be heard, ;.

extensively or at all; at all events that
was their position prior to August, 1914;
but since the outbreak OF the war, these
men, rather crudely perhaps, but never
tke.ess very earnestly, have been asking.
questions of themselves and OF each
others concerning God and Gods nature.
I have heard men.in my billet talking
about religion in that questioning fashion.
and, on each occasion, the discussion
ended vaguely, nclusively. TIE men
were out of their depth, and they knew
that they We're out Of their depth, and
iso, having expressed their sense Of puzzle
ment, they left the matter there.
But I have noticed, particularly in
men who have been to the front, that
out Of that vagueness and puzzlement
is growing a curious sense Of fatalism.
4 One Of my comrades, a man who had
been through the fighting in the Persian
Gulf and elsewhere, told me one night
THAT the German bullet was not yet
made which would kill him. s An it
never will be- he added with extra
ordinary assurance. Ny friend, the
late Rupert Brooke, was equally assured
that he. would die during the war. The
commonest speech uttered by men in
