WISER now ARE
THE FISHERMAN
They Are Fined Fifty Dollars Each
in Friendship Court and Are
Now in Sackcloth

The three fishermen who dashed
across the Briggsville pond with Con
seryation Warden Dockham and Viii.
liam Schneider on their trail, have
been caught and landed high and dry.
The number on their automobile gave
the clue after the net and set line had
been located. Having the number of
the machine it was easy to find the
owner and obtain the whole story. In
court at Friendship the trio, Messrs
Ripley, Elliott and Novak, were each
fined fifty dollars. The first two paid
and the last named gave bond to pay
later. Novak had never gone fishing
before and had no money to pay the
fine. The next time the three start for
the Briggsville pond they will carry
copy of the game laws, and a tele-
scope to aid them in keeping a look
out for wardens. The three fishermen
reside at Grand Marsh, a short dis
tance east of Friendship.

WE'LL GIVE EN-
| WAR TILL THEY
ABHOR NAME
Secretary Lansing, Speaking at
Columbia u, Condemns Peace
Condoning Prussianism
MUST IGNORE TERMS
BEARING GERMAN STAMP
To Heed Such Proposals Would
Be Compromising International
Felony, Declares Lansing

Suggestion of peace based on a
'perpetuation of Prussianism' and
criticism of the government and the
conduct of the war which are not con,
structive, were condemned by Secre-
tary Lansing in New York yesterday.
Prussia having wickedly sought
war, it is the determination of the
American people 'that Prussia shall
have war and more war, and more
war; until the very thought of war is
abhorred by the Prussian mind"
"In the gigantic task of waging
war;" Secretary Lansing said, "let us
not continually look behind to see
where we stumbled, but look forward
the critic of public affairs who is man
ifestly inspired by political or selfish
motives, by conceit, or by desire of
notoriety, l have profound contempt.
"As we turn the periscope and look
deep into our souls so we must not re-
lent our efforts to listen to insincere
suggestions of peace filtering through
from Germany by various channels. A
Prussian peace woud only prolong the
final struggle.
"'It is the supreme task of civiliza-
ton to end Prussianism. To listen to
a proposal of Prussian peace and to
listen to butchers of individuals and
of nations so that they would gain a
benefit by their crime would be to
compound an international felony
which this republic will never do"
Mr. Lansing declared that force is
the only way to end Prussianism "be-
cause it is the only thing that Prus-
sianism respects" He recognizes the
fact that the enemy is strong and Stub
born, and predicted bitter struggle,
but predicted "a day Of complete VIC
tory" for the Supreme Ruler Of the
universe could not decree otherwise.
He has imposed on us and our allies
the task of freeing mankind from the
curse of avarice and inhumanity.

our attention has been called to the
dangerous, boiling caldron of inter
national intrigue and crimes Of that
part of the world, we have cried out,
let it alonei What have we to do
with Turkey? etc. That is what we
said about the war in Europe for two
years and eight months, only to find
out that we could not let it alone
This war began as a part of a series
of problems connected with Turkey
with it's Moslem civilization that has
been the direct or indirect cause of
many wars. Yet many people say,
What have we to do with Moham-
mechanism? Let it alone When will
be realized that we dare not leave
Mohammedanism alone? For our own
safety, if for no other reason, we
dare not leave any single spot unin-
fuenced by Christian civilization"

escaped. Some weeks ago a pile OF
books was removed from the class
room, the German department being
in charge of Miss Christian Wright

have been those taken at that time
H. Fl. Coates, the janitor, says he

This morning he found a basket be-

of the building, and believes the bas-

to the street. Paint was literally used
on the chimney and other places, the
outstanding characters being '18.
Hugh Kelley, who has charge of the
boiler room, and whose basket was
used last night, claimed that when the
books were taken some weeks ago he
showed them into the furnace, but
since the escapade last night, it now
looks as if there might have been r.

HOOVER AGAINST
DRY MEASURE

Food Administrator Hoover is op-
posed to the dry measure and in favor
of the brewer, giving the following
reasons:
The amount Of grain used in beer
making is negligible, while the manu-
facture Of wine involves the use of no
foodstuffs that could otherwise be
employed.
If beer and wine were prohibited
the country would be put on a whiskey
basis, there being three years supply
of whiskey on hand.

vIGILANTES WAR NOTES.

The leaders of organized labor who
belong to the American Alliance for La
Dor and Democracy do not seem to be
lieve in peace discussions just now. Here
| is Frank Bohn, for instance, saying:
There is but one way for peace TO
come quickly, and that is by revolution
| in Germany. There is but one way to
secure revolution in Germany, and that
| is by our htTriedly organizing every man
and woman. every dollar and days work,
for the field of battle. Every word now
spoken for peace weakens the force Of
the revolutionary element in Germany.
Every word spoken and deed done for
uncompromising war hastens the day Of
the German revolution"
Chester NJ. Wright, editor of the or
ganizatlon, says:
There was once a paciflst.
"He opposed the war bitterly.
There was once blind man.
sHe couldn't see the mad dog coming.
"These were two very sad cases"
To this he adds this report of the re-
cent meeting of the American Bolsheviki,
as the pacifists are now canned ironi-
cally;
"Some paeifsts have Just held a meet
ing in New York to talk about peace.
There were the usual peace gabbers in
attendance. And there was again this
fact that stands out in almost every
meeting of pacifists:
"A large number of those most promi-
nent in the peace talk were those most
active in all attempts to disrupt the
American labor movement
ut is noteworthy that in every gath
ering of pacifists there are to be found
the enemies of labor, The labor seces-
sionist is almost sure to be pacifst.
The American Maximalist--the ultra /.
revolutionist who dreams
about red clouds while he fights every
practical move forwards almost sure
to be pacifist /
"The enemies of progress oppose this
war because il is war Of progress. And
the little groups of pacifists that meet
here and there may take what consola-
ton they may find in being among the
worlds most unseeing reactionists."
