Nominate Non partisanS,

Can has been ISSUED for n mass
meeting for the nomination Of
nonpartiSan candidates for the

day night at 8 O'Clock.
For the first time in many years
there are indications of a nonpalti-
san ticket in the field for the cleo
ton of members of the city school
board. Judge John w. Wilson, city
chairman of the republicans, has re-
fused, under advice, it was said, to
join with the democratic city chair
man in the customary call.
But there is not likely to be much
of a fight, The CITY is ordinarily
democratic, and the labor unions have
endorsed the idea of u nonpartisan
ticket, and il is more than probable
that = not twenty-five votes could be
brought out for any partisan ticket
that might be nominated, SO univer-
sally do democrats. republicans, So
cialists and everybody else join in the
policy of keeping partisan politics out
of the schools.
Tho following call for nonparti-
san mass meeting wasf presented to
Judge w. c. Heacock, democratic city
chairman, who signed it promptly. 1t
was taken to Judge Wilson, republi-
can city chairman, who turned il
down cold. 1t was presented to the
labor organizations and was approved
by W. M. Cote. president of the Cen
trial Labor union. The wording Of the
call prohibits the labor organizations
from signing it other than by way OF
approval.

All this is history now. The
fighting is over and the boys are
coming home. They are coming
home proud Of their glorious
achievements to drop back
into civilian life and to enjoy
"life, liberty and the pursuit of
happiness" guaranteed to all
American acitizens, but which
would have been destroyed had
the Germans won.
Our boys over there on the
battle lines well knew the loss
of human life, the sufferings of
the wounded, and the hardships
the war had cost. They went
over there to win and would
willingly have stuck by the job
year if necessary to win
a victory for peace, and peace
was what they were fighting
for. j
Therefore, they are in position
to know how much Of human
life was spared, how much of
sorrow and broken homes and
leart aches was saved by the
of the war in Novem-
Ser, 1918, instead of in May,
1919.

PAYING FOR PEACE.

The Victory Liberty Loan, to

represent the price this country
is to pay FOR the victory which,
it is the hope Of all true lovers
Of liberty, is to insure permanent
peace among the nations of the
earth.
Truly, it is to be the price Of
peace.
1t is agreed among the allies
that the war was brought to
sudden (and to the enemy an ig-
nominous) end, last November,
by the undaunted spirit, the gal
lantry and intrepidity Of the
American fighters on the field Of
battle.
But there was something more
than that
The enemy well knew we had
mobilized and were training
enough of the same kind of sol
diers to double our fighting
force in Europe by early spring.
They knew we were manufacture
turing guns, shells, gas, airplanes
and tanks; that we were produc-
ing food to sustain our millions
of men along the battle front;
and they knew we were build |
ing ships to transport both men
and supplies across the Atlantic
as fast as we could use them.
The Germans knew this meant
not only defeat but annihila- !,
lion. !
