IS WILSON'S REPLY
UNITED STATES CANNOT GRANT
ARMISTICE UNTIL HUN ARMIES
ARE OUT OF FRANCE
AND BEL GUM. -

United States deems Il necessary 10
assure himself Of the exact meaning
Of the note Of the imperial chancellor.
Does the imperial chancellor mean
that the imperial German government
accepts the terms laid down By tlle
president in his address to the con-
gress Of the United States on the 9Th
Of January last, and n subsequent ad-
dresses, and that It's object In enter
ing into discussions would be only to
agree upon the practical details Of
their application?
"The president feels bound 70 say
with regard to the suggestion Of an
armistice that he would not feel at iib-
erty to propose q cessation Of arms to
the governments with which the gov
eminent Of the United States h asso-
ciated against the central powers 90
long as the armies Of those powers
are upon their soil. The good faith Of
any discussion would manifestly de-
pend upon the consent Of the central
powers Immediately to withdraw their
forces everywhere from invaded ter
ritory. ..
1.-THE president also feels he Il juSti-
fed in asking whether the imperial
chancellor is speaking merely for the
constituted authorities Of the empire
who have so far conducted the war.
He deems the answers to these ques-
lions vital from every point Of view.

OVER IS per cent. of the sugar used in the United

about 800 900 of beet sugar and 100000 tons OF
sugar in Louisiana. The total consumption OF the
United States about 900 tons of sugar. which
makes about 1850, 900 tons of refined sugar
If our coasts were blockaded as Germany's now are,
we would have available for the Of the people Of the
United States only pound of for every four we
use Under such circumstances there is doubt that the
American people would get along this limited supply
without COMPLAINT.
The United States Food Administration Is asking
every American household to not more than two
pounds Of sugar per person each month for domestic
use. Reducing sugar consumption here means that
we will be able to help supply the needs of France Eng
land and Italy. Sugar conservation the American
table also mans conservation Of ships.

for ships. Save Our Ships to Transport Troops and
Munitions to France in order that may keep the fight

our own homes" is the message.
There is ample sugar in the world for all require

BETHLEHEM NINE
CLOSED TEMPORARILY

The new Bethlehem mill at Quapaw
has closed down temporarily, the
cause being the inability of the man.
agement to procure sufficient labor.
Continued efforts will be made to OBJ
tain shovelers and if the company
fails It will probably install power
shovels to handle the ore dirt. A
number Of the heaviest stock holders
were at the mine last week inspect
ing their property and said they were

ested that the mine will be a good
producer when sufficient labor has
been obtained to operate regularly.

It has been reported that the Baxter

CONGRESS AND THE WAR

The war draws the whole people IN
to a common purposeful mass; and
that combination acts through its
Constitutional representative body,
the Congress of the United States.
Every act in the tremendous drama
that is being enacted originated with
Congress, has been propelled and
guided by Congress, and the money to
pay for it has been appropriated from
vast stores of financial resources
raised by authority Of Congress. Fur
themore, whenever any action nee
essary to the conduct Of the war has
been taken, Congress has acted with
out partisanship.
Republicans have taken as great a
share in the measures for raising
armies and furnishing them with mu-
nitions and supplies as the other
party. When the President has said
the Government needed unusual pow
ers, Congress has granted them, and
in some cases the President would
have failed if he had been compelled
to depend upon the Democrats. The
campaign slogan Of the Democratic
candidates: "Stand by the President
and elect Democratic Congress" has,
therefore, no meaning and bears no
weight with thinking people who re-
member facts rs they exist.
Standing out from the mass Of &C
tivities in connection with the present
unparalleled situation are four great
actions by Congress: the declaration
of war, the army bill, the appropria-
ton necessary to carry them on and
the raising of the money to pay the
appropriations. Everything else, even
the mobilizing of the armed forces OF
the country, rests upon these four ele-
mentary actions by the Congress. Our
Congressman, Hon. Phil Campbell.
voted for all these measures and for
every bill that passed Congress that
had for its object the speeding mp Of
the war program and the Fastening
of the hour Of victory, whose dawn 10
now Frightening the east. This splen-
did record cannot be assailed by call
ing attention to some trifiing amend
ments that he or any other member Of
Congress may have voted for or
against.
It is worth while 10 pause and re-
member these things when election
day draws nigh. Let the people Of the
Third District testify to their sppre-
citation of the high and patriotic ser
vice of Congressman Phil Campbell by
returning him to Congress by even a
bigger majority than he has ever had.
It is also a good thing 10 remember
that q Republican Congress will spur
up the conduct Of the war and expose
grafters and profteers who feel Sc
cure from exposure under a Demo
cratic Congress that refuses invesh-
CATION Of expenditures on the speeious
plea that action Of that kind would be

After having been refused space
for their boiler plate service with a
poorly concealed threat that if not
used the paper would be made to suf-
fer, the Non-Partison League bosses
have hit upon another plan of get
ting into the despised country press.
Last week in several of the exchang-
es appeared communications identic-
al In wording, but each signed by a
farmer-member of that particular
community. Inquiry disclosed the
fact that these communications were
all written in St. Paul and sent out
to certain members with instructions
to copy them in longhand and take
them to the local editor. The St
Paul bunch of bosses simply used
the farmer to pull their own chest
nuts out of the fire, and those farm
ers became responsible for state
ments of which they know not the
truth and had no means of knowing
the truth.-Morris Tribune.
