Forget Not Britain!

We must not let our delight in the
astonishing achievements of our boys,
bearing themselves like veterans on the
bloodiest battlefields in history and
against the most intensively trained
troops ever sent into action, blind us to
the other "big things" that have been
and are being done in this tremendous
tournament of the nations. Even in our
appraisement of the great deeds of our
allies, we have naturally dwelt chiefly
upon the unexpected and the gloriously
bizarre-the staying of the Goliaths by
the daring Davids. Wehave not stopped
to comment on the solidity of Mont
Blanc.
But it is after all on this solidity of
the Mont Blanc that we build. We all
knew the stuff of which Old England
was made. What she has done in this
war-quietly. INCREASINGLY as is her
wont-has surprised no one who knew
English character, English stamina and
English history. Imaginative writers
have mentioned various moments al
which the laundering bully of Berlin lost
the war and his chance to conquer and en-
slave the world; but those who take long
views of things and recognize the pri-
NAL forces which have shaped the des.
tiny of nations since the disiptegration
of the Roman Empire will agree that
the doom of Germany's despotic ambi.
ton was sealed on the day that Britain s
councillors wheeled that nation into line
with the forces of freedom.

Michigan's "war governor" had no
opposition In the 1918 primary cleo
ton for the Republican nomination for
second term as governor OF the
state. 1t was the first time since the
primary was established in Michigan
that the Republicans have not wit
messed a battle for the gubernatorial
nomination and the fact presages a
return to Office of Gov. Sleeper by
splendidly complimentary vote in the
November elections.
When first elected two years ago as
chief executive of the state, Gov.
Sleeper was hailed as the man upon
whom Republicans had united to
bring Michigan back into the solidly
Republican column. His home district
in "the Thumb" had honored him pre-
viously by sending him to the state
senate and the Republicans of the en-
tire commonwealth had twice elected
him state treasurer, so that he was
widely and favorably known when
called to the governorship.
In Office only few months when
the United States was drawn into the
world war, Gov. Sleeper was first
among the executives of the nation TO
pledge his states complete service to
the cause Of the country. The legis-
lature, then in session, promptly back
ed up the governor by appropriating
FIVE million dollars for war purposes.
Michigan's instant patriotism made a
distinct hit throughout the United
States, as did its energetic work Ia
following up it's promises with action.
Yeoman work has been done by the
war preparedness board and other
patriotic boards of the state, under
the direction of Gov. Sleeper. Michi-
gan has been kept to the front in war
work in a way that has obtained OFF,
cial recognition from the federal gov.
eminent and in a way that has more
than pleased the loyal citizens of the
entire community.
In state affairs Gov. Sleeper has
headed much important work, the full
results of which will be obtained in
| the coming legislature. One of the
most important pieces of state effort
has been in behalf of a budget system,
| to which Gov. Sleeper stands pledged.
At his instance a budget commission
| was created by the 1917 legislature
and its work has been done between
sessions, now awaiting the action Of
the 1919 legislature. Another com.
mission named by Gov Sleeper has
been at work on the states compensa.
ton law, to suggest ways and means
by which that progressive legislation
may be bettered and more adequate
and timely compensation provided for
injured workmen and the dependents
of those killed in industry. The find
ings of this commission will form on
of the most important items of legis.
lation to come before the next legis.
lature.
Numerous other state enterprises
have occupied attention in the past
two years, as well as the national war
work, with the result that Gov.
Sleeper has been by far the busiest
state executive Michigan has had at
any time since It became a state.
Gov. Sleeper has more than earned
the compliment Of being returned for
second term, with no opposition
from within his own party, and with
only perfunctory opposition from 9th.
er parties in the November election.
