A Final Appeal
What kind of a show will the
Round Up be? .lThe time is near.
The premiums on corn are fine.
The late crop report still shows
this county in the lead on corn.
If any other place beats US, why
can they do it? The questions
should come home to every farm
. er IN Charlton county. Will you
heed the call?
If you do not have any show
corn but somes"sgood seed, send
or bring US a bushel to be sold.
This will help US pay our prem
ium list in full, then if you will
do that we will know your heart
is in the right place. We can
make it a great event if all will
help.
Then if you have some fine
fed or garden or orchard pro-
ducts bring them in to show
what the county has. We have
no money for premiums ON such,
but it is matter of county pride
and improvement, rather than
a few cents in the way of a
prize.
Then the Big Dinner
Let every body who eats, bring
a few "eats" along. This din
: ner will be on Oct. 31st on Home
Coming day, for the soldier boys,
! for those who returned, and for
. those who never came back. I"

help to make it so? / am sure
| you will. You have not failed
so far, and / am sure you will

OVER 32OO ALIENS
 IN ENGLISH CLASSES
 IN STATE LAST YEAR

More than 32O0 foreigners attended English classes at night school throughout the state in the school year which ended last summer, according to a compilation of enrolment made public yesterday by the state commit tee on Americanization. The English classes for foreigners at Bisbee had by far the largest enrolment of the year with FPS men, women and chill dren. Jerome was second with $50, and Nogales third with 23S. Phoenix ranked fourth with 174.
 Last year the English classes for foreigners in various parts of the state were better prepared for the work than this year, it was fpointed out yesterday, as many of the schools had funds with which to meet ex- penses and carry on the work. This year, however, other means are being found and the work of teaching for eigners and making them Americans is being carried on. Definite figures on the enrolment in schools throughout the state follow:

The States Exposition.

Announcement that the project for
states exposition in Washington is
to be Immediately pressed vigorously
for early adoption opens the prospect
of active worb not only here but in
the states. Chairman Harper of the
exposition committee named at the
time Of the governors conference here
in March, 1917, is completing the per
sonnel of that committee, and believes
that the time is now ripe for system
attic campaign. Assurances have been
given by the governors of several of
the states Of their confident belief in
the practical value Of a states expo
sition here and their intention to work
hard to secure the participation of
their respective states in such an en-
terprise. If the states themselves will
recognize the advantages to them of
a permanent exhibit of their resources
here in representative buildings there
will be no difficulty in bringing this
plan to fruition. The immediate work
in hand, therefore, is to bring the
matter to the notice Of the states in
such a way as to enlist them for their
own interests.

Lusitania Day.

Four years ago today the steamer
Lusitania was sunk at sea by Ger
man submarine. All the world but
Germany and her allies was Mortified
by the crime. In Berlin, however,
there was wild rejoicing. The deed
/, was acclaimed as an act of justice and
heroism. A commemorating medal
was struck. Enthusiastic Germans re-
garded the sinking of the Lusitania as
presaging Germany's assured victory
through the choking of the allies by
submarine warfare.
+ Today at Versailles the peace treaty
is laid before the German delegates in
terms of such severity as the world
has never before known Germany
has lost her fight and now appears for
punishment. and it is fitting that the
anniversary of Lusitania day should,
perhaps by chance. have been selected
as the time for making known to the
representative VI ludl tHC
conditions upon which peace will be
declared.
The sinking of the Lusitania was
from a German point of view a ghast
ly mistake 1t and the succeeding sub
marine crimes shocked the world. 1t
aroused the American people out of
their technical neutrality into state
of intense partisanship against Ger
many. 1t made virtually certain the
ultimate entrance Of the United States
into the war, without which Germany
might have won. Lusitania day, once
celebrated as an occasion of glorious
accomplishment in Germany, now be-
comes date of the deepest gloom,
and, coupled with the presentation of
the treaty of peace, stands as the an
niversary of Germany's shame and hu-
initiation. E -

A Blockade Argument.

Germany's signature Of the peace
treaty is virtually assured by the pro-
posal to adopt blockade measures in
the event Of refusal to accept the
terms that are presented at Paris to-
day. The supreme economic council
has directed the framing and submis-
sion for the approval Of the council of
foreign ministers Of measures ito be
Immediately put into effect should the
associated governments desire to have
recourse to economic coercion"
The mere suggestion Of blockade
in case Of refusal to sign is almost
assuredly sufficient to insure the ac-
ceptance of the treaty Germany
could not endure a renewal of the
blockade. Already short of supplies,
her people depleted in strength by
lack of sustaining food, her industries
checked for want Of raw materials, q
blockade would complete her ruin.

to men Of education and intelligence
who are known for, or strongly sus-
pected of, notions about government
in conflict with the principles upon
which this government is founded.
Many such, it is now discovered, have
already passed through the gates, and
are spreading dangerous propaganda
widely They have come with a pur-
pose. and are busy with it. In public
addresses and otherwise they declare
for new order to supplant the exist
ing order, and bring the country, with
its vast wealth and resources, under
influences anything but democratic.
The case of Trotsky is cited. A
highly educated man of ability, but
opposed to everything American, he
came in without difficulty. made free
with his opinions while he stayed, and
planted seeds of ant nti-Americanism in
American soil At that time the dan
ger was not great The world was
very much racked by war, but no gov
ernments had yet toppled. But such
a man as Trotsky, with his talents for
agitation and organization. operating
in this country now, would be a very
undesirable resident, indeed.
Keeping out an ignorant man as yet
uncorrupted is an easy proposition by
comparison with keeping out an edu-
Gated man sehooled in chicane and

Congress Summoned.

The summoning of Congress in ex-
ira session to begin May 10, week
from next Monday, doubtless means
that President Wilson expects the
peace treaty to be signed before then
and that he will be either back in this
country or on his way here, or soon
to start.
An extra session of Congress has
been inevitable since the adjournment
on March without action on some of
the large appropriation bills. There
now remains work enough to be done
before the end of the fiscal year for
Congress. indeed, to have been called
together a month ago. With the ses-
sion beginning May 10 there will be
just six weeks before the 1st of July,
and in that time heavy program of
legislation must be enacted, involv-
ing vitally essential details.
Fortunately, there will be probably
little delay in organization The re-
publicans, who will control both
houses, have their plans we'll formed
They have virtually selected their Off
GERS and have framed their member
ship of the most important commit
tees. In the House the situation is so
well in hand that caucus, held prob
ably on the Saturday evening before
the meeting of Congress, will have but
to ratify the selections already made
In the Senate, where the republican
majority is narrow, there is less need
of haste, inasmuch as the appropria-
tion bills will originate in the House
and the urgent legislation cannot reach
the Senate stage for perhaps q fort
night after the first meeting.
This new Congress just called in ex-
ira session may remain at work for
several months, for there is much to
be done besides the passage Of the
money bills. The legislative program
comprises many measures of great ur-
gency for the national welfare. Prob
lens Of great intricacy must be solved.
The industrial situation calls for leg
islation. The railroad question may
come to an issue. The whole program
Of reconstruction will turn largely
upon the results of this sessions work.
1t is gratifying that the session,
though delayed somewhat, has been
called for the 18th. The probable dis,
posal Of the peace treaty at Paris will
permit Concentration of American
attention upon strictly domestic ques-
tions save as the Senate will devote
itself to consideration Of the treaty

The Waning of Bolshevism.

Hungary's bolshevist government
was short lived. 1t was a purely arti-
fetal creation, the result of Russian
intrigue and interference. AS soon as
it settled itself in place at Budapest
it was demonstrated to be unpopular,
to be unrepresentative of the Magyar
nation. The moment the Rumanian
and Czechoslovak forces assumed ag
gressve tactics the soviet system at
Budapest collapsed. 1t could not
maintain itself in the face of outside
pressure, because it did not have be-
hind it the full support of the people.
In just the same way the bolshevik
movement in Russia is weakening and
yielding to the pressure of popular
resistance. Petrograd has been evae
uated and it is reported the Firms
have occupied it. On practically all
of the military fronts the soviet forces
are giving ground. There is no gen
eral Russian support for the bolshevik
organization.
In Bavaria bolshevik movement
failed to gain sufficient support to
maintain soviet organization. The
conservative forces easily overthrow
the usurping administration. As the
case now stands, at no point beyond
the Russian boundaries has bolshevism
gained definite foothold, and within
those boundaries it is weakening and
at the present rate will soon cease to
be a factor for misrule and mischief.
