 Preparations for the parade are going on with increasing rapidity. There will be in line, it is estimated, between 5000 to 5000 people. The parade wll start at 1859 o'clock. In the first division of the parade floats and marchers provided by the patri- otic societies of the city will represent the wars of this country down to the present, and the seven organizations cooperating in the War Chest drive will have floats showing what each is doing for the boys in the trenches.
 Besides being an allegorical pag- cant, the parade will be a parade of all nations. The Chinese residents of the city for the first time will turn out in native costume.
 The Syrians of the city will have one float in the parade. This float l, will be decorated by the same man who dressed it up for the big New York parade of nations where it won first prize. One-half of the Syrians in the parade will be on horseback and will represent those among their ancient number who went over to the Phoenicians. The other half of the | Syrians will represent those who in historic times joined the Arabians The costumes of this section are said to be most picturesque.
 Some of the other groups which will participate in the parade will be | the Italians, the Greeks, the Polish
 the Czecho- -Slovaks;- the English ant
 the Scotch. All nationalities paradins
 will be attired in their native cos
 tunes, and this in itself will be novel sight for this city. For the pur' pose of making the parade uniform
 the parade committee has limited <-l
 number of persons to each float tt 100, The number was first limited tC | 50 but so great was the interest mani l fested and the demand to partlclpat Y that the limit was raised.

LENROOT'S LOYALTY RINGS TRUE

SENATOR LENRooT of this state was
recently called to New York to speak
on War before the Institutional Syn
agogue. The Senator got round of
handclapping when he said that 1.-THE
man who, coming to this country. sees
the Statue of Liberty for the first time
can be as good patriot as the man who
| is born here, and still more when he
said. 'the man who led the fight for war
legislation in congress was born in Ger
many - Representative julius Kahn of
California Senator Lenroot conclud-
ed by saying, The present war. the
greatest of all wars, must be fought
out until it is decisively won. 1t is a
war to save American ideals. Prussian
autocracy must be crushed out and we
must never permit peace negotiated
by the kaiser
And this is the same Mr. Lenroot
whom the high federal officials at Wash
ington together with the government
official pap. suckers of this state to a
man worked with sluring hammer and
tongs to defeat at the late spring cleo
tion. For shame Go bide yourselves
beneath the political cloak which you
so brazenly Haunted as loyalty. Not
one of you is qualified in the least de
gree to share with Senator Lenroot in
the honor of genuine loyalty.

"AMERICA FIRST AND EFFICIENT"
was the Republican party slogan in the
last presidential campaign. Nothing
wrong about that. In fact it is simply
sound patriotic sense. As Governor
Goodrich of Indiana says, "the greatest
thing in all the world to US today should
be America. America efficient. 1t is as
it has been for half century, the land
of freedom and unlimited opportunity I;
and its people are the noblest that
tread the earth today When we hear
men giving credit to this or that states
man or political leader for things accom-
plished let US not forget that the great
credit for all is due to the American
people. Their patriotism, their patient
self-sacrifce, their heroism and their
generosity in this war know no parallel.
To them then, and to no party or no
organization, is due the praise for the
victory which is to come. +"

AND now Speaker Clark is to be num-
bered among the Democratic inconsist-
ents. When President Wilson was urg-
ing congress to pass the CONSUMPTION bill
Clark was violently opposed to it, say
ing, II protest with all my heart and
mind and soul against having the slur
of being a conscript placed upon the
man of Missouri" Representatives
Kahn and Gardner, Republicans, were
the leaders in the support of the Presi-
dent and Clark attempted to belittle
them. But Clark has turned turtle
Last month he went into Indiana and
howled for a strict partisan fight on
the theory that discord, and possibly
party defeat, would follow unless the
executive, senate and house are all Of
one political mind" What's the matter
with making them Republican, Mr..
Clark You know, and to your pleas
ure and profit we are inclined to opine,
that the country never suffered when
Republicans were at the steering wheels
of these three important departments
of the federal government.
