No, the notice, signed by the Coun-
ty Judge and County Attorney, warn
ins the people against the spread of
contagious diseases, isn't published
just to get the names of those OIL
Gals in the paper. They are in
dead earnest about it. Measles is
already widely scattered over the
county, whooping cough Is prevalent
in several neighborhoods and small
pOx appears in at least four different
sections of the county. Only by the
closest cooperation of the people can
a calamity be averted. You had bet
ter take that official warning serious
ly, for we happen to know that prose-
cutions will surely follow any viola
lions of the warning given.

going to keep in touch with condi-

Let us hope the President is a
prophet when he predicts the war
will end this year, but there will be
other doubling Thomases besides the
writer. The German nation is the
most methOdical, the most logged
and the most highly centralized of all
the nations OF the earth. Respect for
authority and unity of action is more
highly developed there than else
where. 1t believes in itself with a
stubborn persistence that can be
shaken only by an overwhelming ca
tastrophe. Peace with Russia, and
recent far reaching eOnquests in Italy
must act as a powerful stimulant to
a nation so cOcksure of itself. View
ed from our angle only social rev.
olution in the central empires could
make peace a possibility this year,
and eyidnces are wanting that such
revolution Is imminent. 1t is our
opinion that the American people
should steel themselves against sac
rifces this country was never before,
and God grant may never again be,
called upon TO make.
