DRIVE YOUR OWN CAR.

Many patriotic men Of, wealth, dis

men doing nothing to help the gov
eminent, have dismissed their chauf-

them have been drafted anyway.
There are some men who have been
successful in everything else in life
they ever undertook, who are too ner-

see a car coming they get pannicky
for fear they will collide.

LA TOILETTE WINS.
Wisconsin House Votes Down Resolution
of Censure.

Madison, Wis. Feb. ga measure
empowering Governor Philip to appoint
a United States senator TO fill the va
cancy created by the death of Senator
Paul 0. Husting was defeated in the
Senate yesterday, q to 30.
In the assembly a resolution favoring
a special election for United States SEN
ator was adopted, so to Is.
The Otto resolution was killed in the
Senate by n vote of IL TO Is.
The sentiment of the Senate appar
entity favors no action to fill the vacancy
until the November election, and inter
est turns to mandamus proceedings, al
ready started, TO compel the calling of
an election. These seem to offer the only
chance for the state to get a representa-
tive into the United States Senate with

Governor Philip refused to give out
any statement but the belief was freely
expressed by Legislators that he would
not call special election of his wolf
iion.
The lower House adopted a resolution
plcdging Wisconsin's loyalty and sup
port of the war. An amendment cen
surins Senator La Toilette was defeated.

denly as he vanished, state Senator Dan

2arded as one of the biggest in New
Hampshire found himself on Monday

baffled New Hampshire as did the sud
den and mysterious departure of Sena-
tor Boyd on Jan. l6 last. Despite all eff
forts to trace him, nothing was heard
~untl Thursday afternoon.
To-day he lies in his home critically ill
with pneumonia. His family physician is
none too optimistic of his recovery. Until
such time as he does recover there seems
but little hope of securing any complete
and detailed account of his wanderings,

100000 NOW FIT
FOR CALL TO VAR
This Is the New Estimate of the Reg
istrants in Class

Washington, Feb 2S.-Nearly $500, 900
fit men will form Americas first line of
draft reserves, Provost Marshal General
Crowder's Office estimates.
This represents the approximate num-
Der of draft registrants of class ! that
will be found fit for military duty as a
result of the QUESTIONABLE system. 1t is
about 100000 more than the original es-
Inmates of Gen. Crowder
Although exact figures are not yet
available, officials stated the total num-
Der of class | men will be approximately
3ll6,000. The percentage OF physical dis
qualification is estimated at not more
than 20 per cent, and probably less, be-
cause of the recent lowering of physical
requirements. The percentage of 90
would mean that about 100000 would be
rejected, bringing the number of avail
able men down to 2,496, 900.
In classes and about 4000 900 have
been placed, practically equal numbers
being in each division. These classes are
largely made up of married men and
those with dependents. Glass win have
about 100000 men, because those phys
ically rejected from class viii be classed
there. About 100000 will be found in
class 3.

TOO MUCH TALK
ABOUT WAR AIMS
We Have No Desire to Dis
member Germany or Die
tate Her Government

| London, Feb. 23.-Viscount Miner,
member of the war cabinet, speaking at
Plymouth Thursday, deprecated too much
talk about war aims. Until peace nego.
tiations are reached" he said, 1--WE are
| fighting for our lives and the very exist
ence of the free nations of western Eu-
rope. As a result of the collapse of Rus
STA, the military party of Germany is
again firmly in the saddle. Doubtless
many OF the people of Germany loathe
the continuance of bloodshed for mere
aggression, but at present they are quite
poweress." He contended that it was no
longer question of destroying Prussian
militarism, but whether Prussian mill
tarism would destroy the allies and dom.
mate Europe and part of Asia.
president Wilson and Premier Lloyd
George have made it perfectly clear" he
continued, that we have no desire to
dismembef Germany, dictate her consti
tuition or exclude her from a fair share
of the worlds intercourse. There can be
but one answer to Germany's challenge,
and that answer may involve greater
sacrifice and endurance than heretofore.

explanation OF what we are fighting for
We are fighting for our lives and the
very existence of the free nations of
western Europe.
THE German military party has pro-
claimed quite openly that their sole OBJ
ject is to deal Knockout blow TO Italy,
France and Great Britain. The existence
of the free nations of western Europe
was all that prevented them from domi
mating Europe and greater part of
Asia, and the establishment of military
despotism which would dictate to the
whole world"
