STILL FIGHTING FOR FREEDOM

1t is more than a century and a
quarter since our forefathers in this
country fought their battle for inde'
pendence with the result that great
republic was established but still the
fight for freedom goes on. It re
NAMED for the rulers of Germany
to challenge the free peoples of the
world to combat to determine wheth-
er democracy or autocracy shall gov
ern, and America has accepted that
challenge.
That the principles Of liberty are
at stake in the present war cannot
be questioned and that America must
lose her priceless freedom unless
she wins the fight is just as certain,
That is why we had no alternative
when the issue was checked up to us !;
1t was fight or surrender all that our
forefathers won in the past, bowling
to the will of a despotic foreign pow
er.
President Wilson has voiced the
answer of America to Kaiser Will
helms challenge and that answer is
force, force, force to the utmost"
The answer of our president is the
answer of every patriot That is
why the people of this country will
throw into the struggle every ounce
Of their energy, their money, their
man-power, their all if need be.
We are about to celebrate the
birthday of our nation and we can
dc 1t in no more fitting way than to
re-dedicate ourselves to the compile
ton of the task which was begun by
our forefathers, resolved that the
freedom won by them shall be pre-
served and that our rights as a free
people shall not be trodden under
foot by any foreign power.
In this war of nations and peoples
every individual has his part to play.
The celebration of the nations birth
day should quicken us anew to our
duties and obligations as patriots,
strengthening us in our determina-
tion to serve and sacrifice to the
limit till our freedom is made secure

CHICkASHA WILL PLEDGE
QUOTA

A resolute company of men met
with Judge Linn, chairman of the
city w. s. committee, at the court
house Tuesday evening, and they
were unanimous in the determination
that Chickasha's full quota of War
Savings Stamps must be pledged
That the plans agreed on will be car.
ried out there is no doubt, but it is
going to take several days to work
them out
We feel sure that the patriotic peO
pie of Chickasha are unwilling that
this city shall go on record as being
Stacker and that they will cheer
fully fall in line with the commit
tees who are doing the work. 1t
means a lot of hard toll for the men
who are pushing the campaign and
they must have the hearty co-opera-
tion of the entire community. Chick
asha is going to demonstrate that the
fires of patriotism burn just as
brightly here as they do in the hearts
of the farmers of the county who
have already made their pledges
To raise the city's quota will re.
quire little more effort on the
part of everybody. Some of us will
have to sacrifice and it is up to each
of us to accept our full share of re,
sponsibility in the matter. If sin
gle person slacks, it simply means
that the burden is shifted to some
body else who will have to bear more
than his just share of it. 1t is a
time for complete unity Of action, and
the spirit of patriotism and civic
pride should so thoroughly permeate
the community that the result of the
new drive cannot be Questionable.
"Over the top" for Chickasha is
the new slogan. We have never yet
failed in our patriotic duty and we
must not fall down this time

INFLATED hospital supplies to fight the
epidemic. A call also will be made
for volunteers to go into the homes
where mothers and housckeepers are
III and assume the management Of the
household.
In further effort to curb the
spread OF the disease, Surgeon General
Blue Of the public health service has
suggested to all state health officers
that schools and places of amusement
be closed and public meetings discon-
dnued in all places where the malady
becomes prevalent Importance Of re-
porting cases also was urged by DR..
Blue.
Reports to the public health service
showed both that the disease is spread
ing and that the number Of cases re-
ported where it had been prevalent
heretofore Is increasing.

OPPOSITION TO PEACE
FEELER VOICED IN THE
UPPER HOUSE.
Leaders Are Most Emphatic in De-
handing Rejection Of Tender Of

Face Defeat

misunderstanding Germany
peace offer in the senate on Monday,
Senator Hitchcock of Nebraska, chair
man OF the foreign relations commit
tee, declared absolutely ahhorrent'
even a thought OF suspension Of hos
tillties now, and recommended the adj
dition to the principles previously laid
down by the president as basis for
peace, one providing that the allies
would deal only with real representa-
tives of the German people.
Senator McCumber of North Dakota
introduced a resolution, which was re-
ferred to the foreign relations commit
tee providing that before the United
States agrees to any armistice, Ger
many must disband her army, surren-
der her navy, arms and munitions, and
agree to pay for damages to cities and
country devastated, restore Alsace-LOr-
raine to France, together with the pen
atty exacted from France In 1870.
Discussion OF Germany's peace Offer
began in the senate soon after the SEES
sion convened. Senator Polndexter OF
| Washington, Republican, declared the
proposal for an armistice a most in
sidlous danger"
When Senator Poindexter declared
an armistice would mean the end Of all
military action, and If accompanied by
enemy evacuation Of Belgium and
France, would be a victory for Ger
many, Senator Hitchcock of Nebraska,
chairman of the foreign relations com
mittee, pointed out that the German
offer also provides for acceptance OF
the IA terms laid down by the presi-
dent in his address Of January g.
Acceptance of Germany's offer only
upon evacuation Of Belgium and
France, Senator Hitchcock said, would
be preposterous, but he declared res
toration Of Alsace-Lorraine to France
and as well reparation for Belgium and
France are among the presidents
terms which Germany proposed to
accept.
| Senator Polndexter said the senate
foreign relations committee should
seek consultation on any negotiations
entered into by the government. and
that the country should be warned
against the insidiousness of published
suggestions that an armistice should
be agreed to upon withdrawal of Ger
many from occupied territory.
Republican Leader Lodge, ranking
minority member of the foreign rela
lions committee, declared that an armi
stice would mean the loss Of the wal
and all we have fought for"
