that our Senate yesterday failed to
perform Its duty, a duty that they
owe to their mothers, a duty that they
should have considered more patriot
ically than they did. They should
have passed the woman suffrage bill.
The women are deserving OF the pas
sage Of this bill. and II it were for
the women OF the navy we would not

Back the Fighting Men with TIE
Fighting Loan.

By HERBERT QUICK

YXZE MUST buy bonds to the last cent of our
wv ability, because our country is fighting for
its very life. Make no mistake, citizens of
America, the crisis is just that--sOe fighting
for our very life.
We must fight this through We must
fight it through to a peace the basis Of which
will be written by and allies.
Germany must not write single clause in
the Treaty. She must be whipped until she will
sign q treaty every word Of which will be drawn
by the Allies. Germany must not be allowed to
dot or cross a t.
Why?
Because Germany has become nothing but
a rolober empire q murderer empire, an empire
the rest Of the world. Such purposes admit Of
compromise. We must conquer die. II
do not conquer we shall nevertheless, die
and die slaves.
Germany began with the intention Of rob-
bing France Of her iron, her coal, her best land
and her great factories; Of making Belgium with
her rich nfneS great cities and immense fac
tories part Of Germany; Of gaining the Bel
gan coast, from which she might conquer Eng
land and Of combining under her flag the hordes
of MOhammedan Turks, and all the Balkan
States, SO that she might train soldiers in count
less millions, build navies to sweep the oceans,
and conquer the world.
The Daily Ardmoreite. [volume] (Ardmore, Okla.) 1893-current, 1918-09-26

This war was to be a step toward world
conquest.
If we do not fight the war through to COM
plete victory she will still keep and she
will succeed. She will surely succeed!
Russia with her nearly 2OO,OOO,OOO people
lies PROSTATE at Germany's feet. Germany could
now give up the Balkan States, give up Belgium,
force Austria to yield up the Italian territories.
up these, and even AlsaCe-Lorraine, and if al
lowed a free hand in Russia she would still
have won a victory greater than any Of which
she ever dreamed at the beginning Of the war.
Give her control Of Russia and she can, and
will, within few years come back with power
to take back AlsaCe-Lorrane, crush poor Bel
gium once more and destroy exhausted France,
sweep every vestige Of resistance from Europe.
Asia and Africa, and then what?
Then she will thunder at our doors-from
Asia she will invade the West, from Europe
on the East and from any possible seized vantage
point any side.
If Germany has control the terms of
peace, who read this will live to Of
the Kaiser's six Emperor Of America.
The time to whip Germany is now!
