Trying to Make an Issue

Some minds grasp a change
slowly. They 60 on thinking along
certain lines to which they have
been accustomed after minds in
the mass have discarded that line
as obsolete. Now and then re-
publican speaker or republican
newspaper hanks back to the pro-
tective tariff, seemingly believing
that the public is still interested;
and that they can make a winning
political issue of it. Such men
need an awakening, and that the
political issues that might have
been considered worth talking
about in 1914 are SO no longer.
This war is breaking down the
barriers between nations and en-
larging them. The tremendous
tragedy of it all has aroused the
world to a wider vision and it has
taught all Of us that if there is 10
be a united front against COM
mon danger when il threatens
that there must be mutual under
standings about economic ques-
lions. and that q conciIiatory spirit
must be shown.

Other towns may be jealous Of
our city and its trade, but there
is no jealousy on the part of our
people. Our merchants and our
business men are liberal in their
dealings and hold out inducements
in both quality and price to draw
trade. They advertise this fact,
and when people come they find
things as advertised, and this,
with the disposition to please, are
sure trade winners. This is why
people are coming from other
towns to trade. You can't keep
them away.

HERR BALLIN TOLD
GERMANY OF ERROR.

LONDON, England (Monday) "A
notable letter was sent by Herr Bal
lin, former director of the Hamburg
American Line to Herr Rathenau,
director of the General Electric COM
pany, dated from Hamburg Dec. 4th
last.
In this letter, which is published
in the Handelsblad, he speaks Of the
critical situation of the German mer-
camille marine and says he is "ab-
solutely in despair" at the whole
state of affairs. He relates how he
uttered warnings against the ruthless
submarine campaign, when it was
launched, how he foretold the conse-
quences of American j ltervention.
and how he had detained the disas-
tfous economic consequences that
were bound to follow after the war.
He proceeds:
But if / am perturbed about our
relations with America | am still
more so about our relations with Eng
land. l see more clearly than ever
that all the growth of our wealth, all
the success of our enterprises in the
years before the war arose from our
connections with the British Empire.
England's harbors, possessions and
colonies stood wide open to our sail
ors and our traders. I have often
been astonished at its magnanimity
which I have even characterized as
madness.
Can one for moment expect that
the old relations will be restored?
see clearly that our method of war
fare with our Pan-German immeas-
urable insanity and with our deplor-
able press we have turned England's
indifference toward us into a loath-
ing so cold, so fierce, so serious, that
| shudder when l think of our econ
omic future. Is it not clear to our
idiotic Vaterland friends that we have
not a single harbOr where our ships
can anchor and expect a friendly re-
ception? The same holds good around
the entire American continent, in the
West Indies and Pacific.
"The huge British Empire has
enough for itself and we have not,
and all the military victories and all
the boasting from Hamburg TO Bag
dad will not in the least help us now"

OPEN SEASON IN EUROPE
REDUCES DEER KILLING.

Minocqua, Wis.-In northeastern
Wisconsin slaughter of deer during
the season just ended was only about
a third as heavy as year ago. This
is chiefly due to the fact that large
number of men who hunt deer every
year were serving in France or in
training camps and also to the fact
that during the last three days of the
season a driving snow storm compell-
ed the deer to seek shelter in thick
cover which hunters could penetrate
only with difficulty and to little pur-
pose.
Only between 20 and 25 per cent of
the deer shipped from northeastern
Wisconsin were bucks. The rest were
does, mostly small ones. Most hunt
ers seem to have complied with the
state conservation boards rules
against shooting fawns, but cases in
which fawns were wounded and kill
ed, sometimes by mistake and some
times deliberately, have come to light.
Men who know state that there is
urgent need of stricter regulation of
deer hunting and of guarding against
lack of cover for deer. They can
not survive in open country.

BRITISH MEET HATE
IN GERMAN RHINELAND.

ROtgen, Germany-Detachme of
the British army pushed out across
the frontier to German soil and the
once forbidden domain of militarism
now is furnishing billets for the con
temptible little army which aroused
German scorn in 1914. The forces
advanced from Veryiers through Eu-
pen to Rotgen. Some gathered by
the roadside to pay their respects to
the troops, but for the most part stol-
i'd Indifference or hatred were en-
countered.
Once over the border the contrast
has been strange-from gaily decor
CLANS to roadways lined with sullen
people. Thousands of German fam
lilies kept indoors rather than endure
seeing the hated British. The streets
of Eupen were filled with residents.
They maintained unconcern or tared
with hatred upon the soldiers Some
tried to be friendly. There was no
fraternizing.
The German people encountered APP
peared to be well fed They were
dressed well and their farms looked
prosperous. Large numbers of cat
tie and cows were seen. Outwardly
the villages showed no sign of dis
tress. 1t was impossible that the
Germans along at least this section
of the border could have felt the hand
of war heavy.
The advance of the British through
VerViers, Limburg and other towns
during the last few days has been one
triumphal procession. The popula-
ton abandoned themselves to holt
day rejoicing. The towns were ablaze
with entente colors for miles. The
highways were decorated with tri-
umphal arches, flags and notices,
and the boys in khaki were showered
with flowers and given a royal well
come.

DECLARES WILSON
PLAYS LONE HAND
COUNTRY DOES NOT KNOW WHAT
HIS POLICY is,
SAYS CRITIC.
BY Frank II. Simonds.

New YOrk-Mr. Wilson is going to
Versailles to express his own views
as to peace terms. The views in
the broadcast and vaguest possible
terms have been set forth in the vari-
GUS addresses Mr. Wilson on and and
after Jan. s. But in no address has
he made clear what he means exact
ly with respect of any controversial
point. Our British friends have clear
ly demonstrated that in the matter of
the freedom of the SEAS" vital to
them, they will necessarily consult
their interests, which are matters of
life and death for them. The British
colonies have publicly affirmed their
determination not to return German
colonies, conquered by their arms af-
ter having served as bases for attack
Those who speak with apparent
knowledge of Mr.. Wilson's views are
most outspoken in championship of
ideals antagonistic to British and CO.
lonial interests.
Mr.. Wilson goes to Europe to
champion the formation of a league
of nations, but there has been no Am
erican Endorsement Of this idea. We
know he regards it as more import
ant than all else to be decided at Yer
tables. His friends have suggested
that all else must be subordinated and
sacrificed to it. But there is no Am
erican warrant for such a policy,
either by congressional resolution or
common agreement expressed by the
press and public.
Not less clear have been the indi-
cations that the country was united
in the determination of the public
to compel the costs of her crimes to
restore what she had stolen, to sur
render what she had annexed Every
German maneuver and trick calculat-
ed to save Germany from the just
consequences of her crimes has been
greeted with universal indignation in
America.
Finally, again and again, we, as
people, have proven our er-growing
appreciation of what our associates
and particularly Great Britain and
France, have done in a cause we on
ly tardily recognized was our own.
Today the mere suggestion that eth
er for Utopian or personal considera-
tons we should be brought into con-
fiict with our allies is received with
prompt and impressive disapproval
So much, then, is clear. Mr.. Wilson
as president of the United States and
spokesman of these sentiments and
principles, will have the support of
his fellow countrymen. But as he
has chosen to act. without asking the
approval and agreement of his fell
low countrymen, he must expect that
the country will reserve its right to
reject what is submitted to them in
Versailles and not at Washington.
Meantime it will be well if our
European associates recognize clear
ly what the fact is. 1t will serve to
clarity much in the future. 1t may
eliminate possible bitterness hereaf-
ter. Not until the United States has
had an opportunity to pass upon
President Wilson'S policy, will it be
an American policy, will it be more
than Mr.. Wilson's own policy. That
time has not yet arrived
