LEADERSHIP AT WASHINGTON

Council Bluffs Nonpareil-Republi-
can leaders in Washington we trust
will have the good sense to under
stand that they cannot do anything
they please with the body of voters
which constitutes the party. Through
partisan arrogance President Wilson
has jostled himself out of line not only
with republicans but with large sec
ton Of his own party. The same kind
of folly on the part of republican lead
ers will do the same thing for said
leaders that it has done for Mr.. Will
son
What the people really desire to-
day in Washington is statesmen. Mere
opposition to Wilson is of little value.
Notwithstanding his arrogant assump-
tion of lone hand role in public af-
fairs Wilson stands for some things
which are eternally right We want
men in Washington today who will
stand with Wilson in spite or his
idiosyncracies when he is right and
oppose him only when he is wrong.

of politicians in Washington are as
suming a negative attitude to every
thing. They oppose the league of ma
tions. They oppose the treaty or
peace. They oppose participation on
the part of America in the business
of the world. The people will not ap-
prove these picayunish penurious and
selfish ideals.
1t may be well in this connection to
recall that the democratic leadership
of 1898 and 1902 committed the dem
ocratic party to a policy Of opposition
to what the leaders were pleased 10
call imperialism. They called them
selves anti-imperialists. The country
rejected their plea. II accepted man
datory for the Philippines. Today the
work this country has achieved in the
Philippines is a source Of pride and
satisfaction to all our people. The
people will not follow today a group
of little, shriveled souled politicians
with more zeal than they followed the
little fellows who opposed the broad
craftsmanship OF Mckinley, John Hay,
Elihu Root and Theodore Roosevelt
twenty years ago.
President Wilson has been foolishly
offensive in his Conduct of the coun-
try's business He has tried to be
the whole thing himself to such an ex-
tent that he has jeopardized good pui.
icies which he has championed. But
these personal things are as chaff in
the wind. What the people want is
men who will sift the wheat from the
chaff in governmental affairs and who
will support America in role in world
affairs which represents her as a great
unselfsh, Christian nation willing to
bear her share of responsibility for
the welfare of our fellow men.
Our responsibility to Armenia today
does not differ a whit from our respon-
sibility to the Filirinos twenty years
ago. We followed Mckinley then in
policy assuming manly responsible
ity We are not going TO follow Lodge
or anybody else in an opposite direc-
| tion now Republicans at Washington
ought to get these facts clearly in
mind.

HAS MOST CARS

The banner for having the largest
number of automobiles in proportion
10 population of any county in South
Dakota is claimed by this Moody
county. Licenses thus far have been
issued for 1850 automobiles. and it is
expected the total will aggregate not
less than 100. This Is one automO-
bile for every six persons in the coun-
ty. therefore every man, woman and
child in the county could 60 for Joy
ride at the same time.
