THE EVENING REPUBLICAN* RENSSELAER, IND.

With a demand that is country wjde. and almost unanimous for preparedness, congress dallies jn the mo3t shameful' manner in taking steps to provide for adequate defense. The Chicago Tribune castigate® it in severe terms, calling the senate “thfi. most deliberative body in the world.” The pursqit of Villa is a leap in the dark and any little adversity would necessitate the use of troops not now available. It it safe to say that it would require from a month to three months before the national guard could be equipped and trained sufficiently well to put them on the firingv line. The war department says it would take ~ix months. Congress, blind to danger and truckling to a constituency- thaL will vote on it again this fall, listens to the peace at any price talk that holds a man to be .a trained soldier the minute you hand him a gun. Some one who knows the right from the wrong, whose veins are filled with the patriotic fire of devotion to America and who fears neither the opposition of the president nor the effect at the coming election should make the air blue for a time in the pointing out to the dilatory lawmakers their patriotic duty. TheriT is no issue so important now as preparedness. It is the dominant and vital affair of the time. People see it on every hand and congress is taking months to the consideration of a feiw little details that have no material consequence in the settlement of the question. They are mistaking the issue, believing it to be method and not result. If as a consequence of their delay there the Mexican border or serious trouble should come from another source the caustic words of the Chicago Tribune will have proven too weak to express a country’s criticism. There is only one way ±o_ repair.- the thoughtless., indifference of the past and that is to put into training enough men to furnish protection in case of “danger. The president is said to fear that Mexico might misinterpret the act of putting tMoops in training. Mexico be hanged. If that is the attitude of Mexico the trouble will come and the ..force of trained soldiers should be so strong that Mexico could not misinterpret our decision to protect our citizens and their in-' vestments wherever they may be. Are we developing into a nation that dares not prepare to defend itself for fear we will be misunderstood? China is that sort of a nation. Let congress awake. Let its patriots speak. Let its shiver at the results.

'* % The Hammond Times would have it appear that Lake county felt terribly slighted because it did jicrt get the district chairman. As a matter of fact, while three Lake county men were scrambling for it, the rank and file felt that harmony could not’ be secured in Lake county unless the district chairman was selected from outside the county. Lake county politicians who attended the meeting in Rensselaer did not return home with a grouch on, but feelfhg well satisfied that the defeat of all three of the Lake county applicants fpr the job was the best thing for the district and for Lake county also. The Times’ effort to make the politicians there feel bad won’t succeed very well.
