ARE SPECULATING.

Several applications for liquor licen-
ses have been made to the city council
and are published this week. Tie
gentlemen who have made the apph-
cations have done so with the under
standing that their money will be re-
turned if the nation goes dry on July
first, which without doubt it will.
The state law provides for the return
of their money in case the country
goes dry and they ace simply taking a
chance that President Wilson may
delay national prohibition by issuing
a proclamation declaring demoblllza-
ton completed. From every lndlca-
ton, however, the President will not
issue the proclamation and the thirsty
ones, hoping for reprieve at the last
minute, will find that liquor sales VIII
end on July first as stated in the war
tine prohibition law enacted by
congress.-H. c. S. -..s

WHY NOT A PAVILION Fob
SAUK CENTRE?

Sousa's famous band will visit
Glenwood June 26th and this means a
great deal to the people Of that city
outside of the entertainment afforded.
The fact that Glenwood has pavil-
ion which will accommodate an
audience of sufficient size to warrant
the visit Of this famous organization
is in itself credit to that city. Sank
Centre needs a pavilion on its beauti-
full lake shore, both for the entertain
ment of the public and as a business
asset to draw people to the city
during the summer as well as the
winter months. A structure of this
kind, erected with view of the fu-
ture needs Of the city, would give
housing for crowds that could in no
other way be accommodated. It would
be of especial value for Memorial Day
services, which in the future will be
of greater interest to the people. With
the closing of the saloons on July
first, some means of entertainment
and places of amusement must be
started to comply with the demands
of the public for wholesome recrea-,
ton. There is no prettier lake in
Minnesota than Sank Lake and it
certainly needs pavilion on its
shores at Sank Centre to complete its
usefulness to the community as a
recreation ground.-H. c. S.

INTERN ATIONALISM VERSUS
AMERICANISM. ..-

On Memorial Day President Wilson
and Gen. John ]. Pershing delivered
addresses to different branches OF the
A. E. F. in France.
In the Presidents address he SET
forth the claim that the American
bows laid down their lives in France
in defense of the League of Nations;
in effect that they were willing TO
change the American form OF govern
ment into one of internationalism.
In his talk to the boys Gen. Perish
ing enunciated the great and simple
principles of pure Americanism; that
the fallen heroes fought that the
4gIory of our independence must re-
main the leaven and our flag the
emblem of all that free men love and
cherished"

The Presidents address reads
like political propaganda; the address
of Gen. Pershing came from his
heart and represents the great prin-
ciples which actuated the millions OF
young American manhood to offer
their lives as sacrifice upon the
altar of their country. The salient
points of the two addresses are pub
lished herewith:
By President Wilson
"The thing that these men let US,
though they did not in their counsels
conceive it, is the great instrument
which we have just erected in the
League of Nations.
"These men have given their lives
in order to secure the freedom of
mankind, and / look forward to an
age when it will be just as impos-
sible to regret the results of their
labor as it is now impossible to regret
the results of the labor of those men
who fought for the union of the
States. -
81 look for the time when every
man who now puts his counsel against
the united service of mankind under
the League of Nations will be just as
ashamed of it as if he now regretted
the union Of the States.
"There is here and there an attempt
to insert into the counsel of statesmen
the old reckoning of selfshness and
bargaining and national advantage
which were the roots of this war, and
any man who counsels these things
advocates renewal of the sacrifice
which these men have made, for if
this is not the final battle for right
there will be another that will be
final. .ez III; s
"Let these gentlemen who suppose
that it is possible for them to. ac-
complish this return to an order of
which we are ashamed and that we
are ready to forget, realize they can
not accomplish it." &,
. BY General Pershing-
"The principles which our fore;
fathers fought to establish. the
heroic dead who lie here fought to
maintain, and their ideals have
brought our gift to the Old World.
"The times demand of US clearness
in thought and firmness in action.
The solidity of our national institu
tons must be the bulwark against
insidious and destructive tendencies.
"The glory of our independence
must remain the leaven and our flag
the emblem of all that freemen love
and cherish. ~.
strengthened by the practical
test of war, and with an abiding faith
in the Almighty, let US be steadfast
in upholding the integrity Of our
traditions as a guide to future gen.
erations at home and beacon to all
who are oppressed.
"Those to whom America pays
tribute here today came with US in
the full vigor of their youth. = =
AS they went to battle they were
united with holy inspiration, realiz-
ing their mighty task and their obi
cations to their country, and they
fought with unparalleled stoicism and
determination.
"And now, dear comrades, farewell.
Here under the clear skies, on the
hillsides and amid the Towering fields
of France, in the quiet hush of peace
we leave YOU forever in Gods keep
ing."-A. M. w.

WET YET-MAYBE

Kentucky distillers have won the decision over the government re- garding the removal of liquors in bonded warehouses. This decision makes it possible to remove some 10000 gallons of whiskey from the warehouse, which possibly will be exported or held in readiness for the short "wet" spell that is expected before national prohibition becomes effective. ,s.
 President Wilson stated that as soon as the peace treaty is ratified by Congress, wartime prohibition will be ended. Even prohibition leaders predict short period when high per cent. intoxicants may be had, so the time cannot be far distant when friends of John Barleycorn can cele- brate his return to earth.
