LOUIS G. EDER of Hammond, the
onl y candidate for County Treasurer who
was born, bred and brought up in Lake
County, is making a whirlwind race for
the nomination all over the County and is
confident of victory at the primaries next
Tuesday, May 7th, 1918 Mr. Eder saws
let the best man win ard / believe that
the people Of Lake County, who are some
what tired of politicians in office, will
vote for a candidate for County Treasurer
of Lake County for man who has never
been in office and who has never sought
office for county office Friends of Mr..
Elder say that this description fits him ex-
actly and they are making the forceful
argument that Mr. Elder has never taken
part in political fight and is not poll
tician.
Of Mr.. Elders competency to carry out
the duties of the Treasurer's office there
is no question. He has been for ten years
assistant cashier of the Citizens National
Bank of Hammond, Ind He knows the
banking business from the ground up and
as a County Treasurer to be a success
must be particularly we'll qualified in
banking and financial matters Mr. Elders
experience in that line Will be invaluable
He will be able to take care of the duties
of the office himself and will not be a fig
urehead and have somebody else to run
the office for him.
In his trails up and down Lake County
Mr.. Elder has met men of all stations in
life and all kinds of occupations and his
canvass has convinced him that the peo-
pie of Lake County are going to vote for
men for the office who are not in any way
connected with machine politics. They
are strong for the man who has no politi-
cal axes to grind Especially true is this
of the farmers and business men.
Taxpayers of Lake County will never
have to regret voting for a man of Mr..
Elders type He is popular wherever he
is known and has host of young repub-
icans over the County working for him
with all their might Much of this sup
port is spontaneous and comes to him
without effort. He has declined to use
hurrah tactics in his campaign and abhors
advertising stunts. He refuses to boost
himself into office by cheapening patriot
ism, though he has given up his time dur
ing the past few weeks to selling Liberty
Bonds and IN consequence has not been
able to give many the glad hand.

LET US BE PATIENT.

| It is someways easier to cultivate patience
lin time of struggle than at the time when sue
cess is achieved Patience at all times is vir-
tue; at some times a necessity We have pass
led through the time when there was universal
willingness to be patient; to endure what was
made necessary by the war and part in it.
AS soon as peace by armistice came great
motive to patience was removed and removed at
a time when patience will be most needed by
many of to avoid disputes, discomfort and
Encouragement Delays will seem doubly
moving, viii take on the aspect OF personal
grievances and the great effort of everybody to
get into the stride of normal life will appear
difficult of accomplishment. Our absent men
Will be missed more than when their work
no longer has the Importance of military ne
cessity. Calls for money will be likely to arouse
a reluctance because the great thing has been
done at great effort and sacrifice and the time
of reward seems slow in coming to the public.
All this is to be expected and must be counter i
acted by proper consideration of the havoc of
war to be repaired. There must be an average
of needs stuck as the program for action is de .
termined. The worst suffering must be mitigat-
ed first. It is not going to be easy to have pa
thence while this is done; but to have it will be
a great and helpful virtue.

LOCAL THINKING"

; DR.. Robert NJ. McElroy, educational d.rector
of the Security League, outlines plans for a
postwar educational campaign to be sponsored
by the League. The basic idea is Americaniza-
ton, but from the base grow ambitious projects.
DR.. McElroy foresees the need of breaking the
next generation from the habit of local think
ing to intelligent vision of the larger life of
the nation. There is something more than theo-
retic plausibihty in this project; the outlook
of many of our people has been narrow thu
proof of this is the history of the nations
thought on the war. The spirit of loyalty and
the ability to do have been fostered; the need
and local application of the wars result were
slow to be apprehended. DR.. McElroy wants
our children and more mature students to start
from the ending of this war on a course of study
that shall bring them to intelligent national
to citizenship that will make them
voters who realize the significance of the vote
and the function of the officials elected 1t isl
logical to see in the just concluded the basis
of new interest in the study of civics as an
for citizenship. But such study will
succeed only under good teaching. The first
condition of DR.. McElroy's program is a strong, |
sble, clear thinking teaching corps. To break
lp local thinking the teachers must lead in /
he process. An impartial well-informed and
patriotic teaching body will find great oppor- /
unity and use it. /

FARM LABOR.

Washington D. c., Post: Farmers
in the great agricultural states of the
west are more anxious regarding the
labor situation on the farms next
year than they we're at the beginning
OF this season. remarked II. l..
Davis, a prominent farmer OF Iowa,
at the Washington. There was, OF
course. shortage Of labor when the
planting time began this year. but it
was nothing like that which followed
during the harvest, and the prospects
now are anything but bright The
draft and the call OF the industries
took many thousands of men from
the farms, and it is not likely that
they viii be returned by the time
spring planting begins. Some time
ago the farmers, through their or
ganizstions, asked that no more men
be taken by the draft. and also that
the men be prevented in some way
from leaving the farms to go into the
industries, where they have been at
tracted by the higher wages
1T is difficult thing to keep men
from seeking employment where they
Will get more money than they have
been able to earn in their ordinary
and the farmers did not
realize until the farms had been al
most depleted of labor that they
were facing a situation that would
be hard to overcome later on. There
has been suggestion that men be
drafted for work on the farms. but
the government has given no encour-
agement to this proposition. The
president, however, has said that il
would be entirely consistent for the
farmers to undertake a great volun-
.eer force, and the agricultural asso-
cations have already formulated
plans toward this end. The situation /

THE RAINBows AT SEDAN.

Davenport Democrat. To have been

ON will in the future entitle a couple
OF million of Americans to especial
consideration. But there is one title
with which few others will rank, and
that one may be claimed only by a

have the right to say:

division was one OF the two that were

First except the regulars and the

KEoKUK's RAINBOW MEN.

A few days before the greatest war In al
history came to end by acceptance on the
part of the German delegates Of the terms OF
armistice conditioned by the United States and
the entente allies, Sedan, that historic city
wherein Napoleon surrendered his armies to
Germany in September, 1870, was captured by
American forces. What makes this of more
than passing interest to our people of Keokuk
is the fact that the Rainbow division was one of
the two divisions that We're first to enter Sedan.
This division, composed of enlisted men, had
in its ranks sixty-one soldiers who registered
from this city. The capture of Sedan is one of
the glories of war that is duly appreciated here
at home
