say First, history proves the loyalty
of the German born citizen to his
adopted country.
Second if vilifying and damning
everything German will win the war
if it saves humanity and civilization
and does away with all the kings and
emperors, keep on with the good work.
Third, do not hold all the German
people responsible for an article
written by certain German pastor
somewhere.
Fourth, to forbid the preaching Of
the gospel to the people in their
mother tongue reminds one of the in
QUESTION in the middle ages which
was the voice of the historical or the
fanatic.
Fifth, if the Acknowledgement Of the
English language embodies loyalty
and patriotism, my conception of 10y
atty and patriotism is wrong. Surely
there are other ways to inspire pa
than to humiliate and en-
barrass those who are trying to be
good citizens, and who are helping |
along every good cause as well as
les in their power.
Just as religion cannot be forced |
Ipon a person so neither can loyalty
nd patriotism. The flag that stands

zen makes the foreign born citizen
eel his responsibility toward his

PEOPLE URGED TO ELECT
REPUBLICAN CONGRESS

Washington, D. c., Nov. Election
of a Republican House and Senate
November 5th would be a guarantee
to the people of the Republic that af-
ter the wal ends Congress will prompt
ly resume all the extraordinary pow
ers conferred on the Executive for the
duration of the conflict.
Election of a Democratic Congress
in November would not be an assur-
ance to the people that all these eX-
traordinary war powers, now in the
hands of the Administration, would be
promptly returned to the people, after
the war.
1t is a fac known to every American
that President Wilson is the absolute
master of the present Congress. Mr..
Wilson orders in legislative matters
and Congress obeys.
The Republicans are now in a mi
nority in House and Senate. Their
influence, votes, and even their pro-
tests are futile in face of the solid
Democratic majority, which votes
practically zen bloc" at the Presidents
command. No Democratic represen-
tative or senator now dares to oppose
the Presidents will on any important
legislative measure. The fate of Var
, daman, of Hardwick, and of Slayden
is ever in their minds. On minor and
comparatively ~unimportant measures
the Democrats vote with a semblance
| of independence, but when the White
House whip cracks they obediently fall
into line and bow to the Presidential
mandate.
If, after peace is declared, and there
is still a Democratic Congress, Presi.
dent Wilson should not wish to surren.
der ALL of the extraordinary war pow
ers now in his possession, believing
that the Executive should retain some
of these powers, would such a Congress
resist him. In view of the present sub
servient attitude of the Democratic
majority, the question nswe itself.
I This condition, with its ominous and
dangerous possibilities of the future,
would be changed if a Republican Con-
gress is elected in November.
A Republican Congress could act in.
, dependently of the Executive will, if
necessary, for the welfare of the coun-
try. 1t would represent the people and
not the White House.
At the same time it would most Wig
orously and successfully support all
| Administration measures for winning
the war, should the war not be ended.
A Republican Congress would guar
antee to the people that the rights
they have voluntarily surrendered I'M
| der the stress of war would be return
ed to them unimpaired.
1t is for the people to choose what
kind of a Congress they want for the
after-the-war period.

An Old Time Idea.

More than one newspaper that ought
to know better persists IN manltestIng
and promulgating belief that the day
light saving law will be an entirely new
experiment in this country. The con,
trary is the truth
Many years ago, long before what is
called standard time had been adopted by
the railroad companies and accepted by
the people, daylightsaying was prac-
ticed by some, if not all, of the mill cor
porations in various sections of New
England. Clock hands were moved back
for winter and forward for summer with
out hesitation and without proclamation.
Everybody in the mill towns became ac-
customed to the semi-annual changes,
and, although whole hours were not saved
in that manner, it was a simple day
light saving project.
One disadvantage of the pioneer re-
form was the fact that it was necessary
to keep in mind always two measure
ments of time-the fixed schedule, used
BY the railroads, and the corporation
standard, so called.-Boston Traveller.

Conditions in Germany.

An intelligent American, who has just
arrived from Europe, but whose name
we cannot disclose, reports that condi-
tions in Germany have become exceed
ingly serious. and that if people could
ever be starved into submission, this
would soon be the fate of the Germans.
From what he knows of their temper of
mind, however. he feels that they Will
bear their misfortunes in sullen silence.
even il starving Is necessary; and that
only q military decision can end the war.
He SAYS that Germany, with all her
real and tabled preparedness. never had
in con smplstion a war Of such duration
and intensity as this one has become.
In consequence. she has gone to pieces IN
most Of the great fundamentals 81 life.
The rolling stock Of her railroads has
sunk To deplorable condition, FAR worse
than We know anything about here. Her
railroads were prepared for sharp
strain. but not for 80 long a pull. In

VERMONT AND THE THIRD LIB
ERTY LOAN.

Beginning next Saturday, April D. the
campaign for the third Liberty loan viii
be instituted in Vermont as throughout
the entire country, The nation is asked
to raise S3,OOO,OOO,OOO for the prosecu-
ton Of the war, and Ncrmont's quota OF
that amount is approximately $1,000
0O0. The mnttcr has been before the
people of the country so long in tenta'
tive form that they are probably better
prepared for this loan than they were
for either one Of the previous loans. For
the most part there is better organ
ization because of the experience gained
in the floating of the other two loans
Nevertheless there will have 20 be a very
general quickening on the part of the
people in order TO raise the desired sum-
Particularly is this true of Vermont,
where the people are somewhat slow TO
get started in a big movement of this
sort. But, though Vermont is slow TO
get aroused, she is nearly always sure
TO come along fast toward the end. In
this case the Green Mountain state can
not afford to be outdone in a display OF
patriotism; we should raise our quota
within the four weeks that are allotted
for the drive. BY so doing, and by the
nation so doing, we can show to the
German war lords that the morale OF the
American people has not been weakened
during a year of participation in the
war and that they are as ready as ever
TO stand back OF their fighting men
abroad and to aid our allies in the com
mon purpose of breaking down the sway
of militarism. Let us in Vermont do our
full part.

Industrial Accident Insurance Direct.

# the opinion of the attorney. general
refusing the Barre Granite Manufactur
ers' association the right to carry their
own risks under the state workmen's
compensation act. Is good law, then we
have some bad law on the statute books
When the aforesaid workmen's com
pensation act was pending some friends
of the system urged that provisions be
inserted for the states carrying the in
surance called for, or for a provision per.
hitting employers to enter into volun,
tary associations and carry their own
risks. This was not done, the progeni-
tors of the bill fearing TO create too
much machinery,
Well. ii seems that some employers
can carry their own risks cheaper than
and lust al safely as the regular casual.
ty companies, vet, under Nermont's in
suranee laws, designed for an entirely
different purpose, they cannot do 50. We
say this is poor law and it calls for a
remedy,
Certainly there can be no good reason
why such respectable organizations as
the Granite Manufacturers association,
the Quarrymens association, the marble
and slate manufacturers organizations
or the railroads should not be permitted
to carry these risks themselves, under
such regulations as the commissioner OF
industries or the insurance commissioner
might prescribe.
Furthermore. The Herald has a notion
that such employers will very speedily
and effectually demand that right before
