LEST WE FORGET

From the beginning Of the pres
emit world war let It be said of the
leaders of the republican party that
they have thrown politics to the
wind and have Loyalty supported a
democratic president. Even when
his own party representatives have
stood against him. republicans have
come to the center and Supported
his measures. In response to such
support a democratic senator who
stood with the Huns early in the
struggle. delivered in the senate a
vicious attack on republicans and
shouted Of his feaIty to the govern
ment he had twice betrayed. His
clacking jaws had scarcely closed
when wiser heads in the party
choked him OF and the teapot temp
est soon blew over.
Now, the hydra headed monster OF
Hunism rises in Wisconsin and a re-
publican is nominated for senator
against that brand OF treason known
as LaFolIetteism. The loyal support
Of the republican party is forgotten
in wild scramble for political pap
!. and the vice president of the United
States is sent into the field to wage
political warfare. Does the admin.
istration stand for this sort Of thing!
II not, why is It permitted
Let it not be forgotten that We
are in the midst Of bloody war and
American citizens will not stand fol
politics at this time. II 1t is forced
on the people there will be scraI
at home. in the halls of congress and
in every political division Of the
country and everybody will want t.
know why the trouble was started
We seriously doubt the desire Of the
administration for the recent move
OF his party leaders in Wisconsin, fol
he is too astute man not to realize
what serious results must follow.
