away In mad outbursts Of excite
ment.
II Is impossible to set the farmers
OF the United States on fire by means
Of any sudden spark Of rumor or to
blow chance catch of flame among
them into 4 conflagration with any
hand bellows Of artificial agitation: :
but when the farmers do ignite they
burn with slow, hot fire, which no.
thing can put out. They are some
times the last to heat up. but they
stay hot, and In a long fight they
are always found sturdily carrying

They fight the slow rear guard &C.

'rhe farmer everywhere loves peace.
The American farmer especially
loves peace. Since the dawn Of his
tory, the farmer has been the man
who suffered most from war. All
that he possesses lies out Of doors In
plain sight. and is spoil Of war--his
house, his grain. his live stock. He
knows that he pays the price Of the
war "in steer and gear and stack"
and that the flames that light the
skies in the rear Of every invading
army are consuming the things that
yesterday represented his life work.
and the life labors Of past genera
tons Of farmers--the little coral ISL
ands Of comfort and wealth that de-
cades Of toll on the farm builds up.
But the farmer everywhere Is a
warrior when war is the only thing
which will make and keep him free
either a warrior or q serf. He can
not rally to the colors a. quickly "a
can the jewellers In the cities because
Il takes longer to send to the farms
than to the cities the fiery cross Of
the call to arms. II takes longer to
call the farmer from the fields than
the city jewellers from the shops;
for many do not hear the first blast
OF the trumpet, and others do not
at first understand It's meaning be-
cause they have not had the time to
talk the matter over with their &C.
Quaintances on the street corners.
in the stores. on the cars, In the
clubs. and at other gatherings. and
instead Of reading half a dozen ex-
tras a day the farmer may read the
weekly papers only instead Of the
dailies. and must have more time In
a sudden emergency to make up his
mind.
The work of the fields. the care oil
the live stock, and the mud and slush
OF the long road to town are all OBJ.

Invasion, subjugation, and national
death. We did not at first realize
this. but finally we saw that It was
so.
II the Imperial German govern
ment had made and enforced an or
der that no American farmer should
leave his own land, that he could not
haul load Of grain or drive head
of stock to town--if. in fact. the
Kaiser had laid an interdict on all
intercourse between farm and farm
and between farm and town. he
would have done only . little more
than he accomplished by his inter-
dict against American farmers use
|of the sea. What was the order
against which we rebelled when we
went into this war? Look at the
condition Of the American farmer in
the latter part Of 1914 and the first
half Of 1915 and see.
When the war broke out, through
terror and surprise and panic we
gave up for a while the use Of the
sea as highway. To a great extent
we gave It up. And So long as we
gave It up we. the farmers Of Amer
lea, were ruined. I know an Iowa
farmer who sold his 1914 crop OF
$4,000 bushels Of wheat for 70 cents
bushel. Farmers In the South sold
their cotton for half the cost Of pro-
ducing II. All this time those por.
lions Of the world whose ports were
open were ready to pay almost any
price for our products: and when W.
finally rallied and set once more In
motion the ships Of the world pros.
perity returned to the farms Of Am
erica. But prosperity never return.
ed to the farmers Of those nations
which remained cut off from thu
seas.
Take the case Of Australia, for in
stance. There three crops have re
NAMED unsold on the farms. There
were no ships which could be spared
to make the long voyage to Austria
liza; and SO. in spite Of the efforti
of the government to save the farm
ers from ruin, grain has rotted in tn,

THE ISSUE.

Good Americans will indorse out
right the program OF the National Sc
curity League to prevent the election
or reelection of any members of Con-
gress this year who are not known to
be vigorous proponents of the war or
who can be lured to support any spe-
ciOuS efforts at an inconcluSive peace.
The country needed such a nonpoliti-
cal organization as the league to lead
the fight against the milk fed office
holders and office seekers who, in
many parts Of the country are cater
ing to the hopes Of the people that
the war may be ended, eve though It
o not ended right. The league can
come to Colorado, for instance, and

HUSTLER At.
HALF PRICE
TO SOLDIERS

w. s. Wilson, secretary of North
Council of Defense after Wis
ting army camps returned and in a
letter made three sensible sug-
gestions. the first OF which follows:
First, send your home paper to
'At least one soldier at the camp.
Pick out one Of the men you know
and subscribe for your home pc
per and send It to him. Any mem.
Der of his family. will give you his
correct address. Write him a let
ter and tell him you are sending
It The cost viii be trffling. The
thought will be appreciated. 1t
is not an act Of charity, but an
act Of patriotic service.
In order to. do our bit we have de-
cided to offer the Hustler at half price
rs cents for six months or SO cents
for a. year, to any n wishing it sent
to a soldier.
This is a splendid way to do your
bit. Help us out in this effort to in
terest the soldier boys who are max
ing a sacrifice for their country.
The Hustler publishes more Hender-
son county news than all other news
papers combined therefore it is the
paper that Henderson county soldiers
want.

WORLD WARNED cong AGO.

| The war orators have been telling
the public fOr the past year that Ger
many has been planning for more
than q quarter Of a century to domi.
nate the world and collect tribute
from all nations and principahties.
1t has been q strange story to the
people of the United States and they
are wondering why we were not
warned in time to prepare for the
conflict. The Pail Mall Gazette in
London recently republished an edi-
torial appearing in it's columns 80
years ago warning Acknowledgements
ing people of impending danger.
Bismark had just called 100000
fathers of German families to army
training and was already ~forecasting
the next greatwar. At that time the
Pail Mall Gazette said:
prince Bismark has frankly told
US what kind of a war it will be. We
shall fight, he said, if we do fight,
until we are bled as white as veal.
1t will be a duel to the death-a war
in which the avowed object of the
cOmbatants is the utter destruction
of their adversary"
And then the writer continues the
warning with the following startling
statement: -
"'Saigner. a blanc to drain the
very life blood of your enemy until
you leave his carcass as white as that
: of the calf from which the butcher
seeks to drain every ruddy drop of
gore-that is the declared ideal of
the foremost nation of the continent
in the year of grace 1888. The i'm
agination refuses to picture what it
means. All our recent wars were
short. The longest was that of the
Crimea, which was little more than
the siege and defense of a single
fortress by professional soldiers. The
Franco-Italian war was almost a wal
of weeks. The Danish war was al
most over before it began. The
