work of the Y. M. C. A. and kindred institutions in training camps," stated General Lloyd. "These instttutiona supply a want, and a very groat want, which it is :ni"-'ssible for any government organization to fulfill. Hie comfort which is provided and the possibility for ..ieii to spend their leisure ia quiet and reading ot-writ-.n gls of untold significance, pot only on their well-hcing but in other and more far-reaching was." "I do not think it possible to over-rate the work of the Y. M. C. A. in providing a civilized and humane background for troops in the battlefield," said Lord Milnor. "I have seen and admired its work. The great American army has already benefited by the American Y. M. C. A., and as its forces increase that work must develop enormously. I wish every success to the appeal to the generosity of the American people."

The United States Demands an Unconditional Surrender.

JUST REMEMBER THIS. JUST REMEMBER ONE THING WHEN YOU VOTE TOMORROW. KITCHEN, DEMOCRATIC CHAIRMAN OP THE WAYS AND MEANS COMMITTEE. SAID HE WAS GOING TO MAKE THE NORTH PAY" FOR THIS WAR. YOU KNOW WHAT THE WAR IS COSTING YOU. WELL, IF KITCHEN HAS ANYTHING TO SAY HE'S GOING TO MAKE YOU PAY MORE. NOW, THAT'S ALL THERE IS TO IT. CAN YOU VOTE FOR A DEMOCRATIC CONGRESS.

NOW WILL YOU BE GOOD! The announcement from Washington that our sugar sjllowance is to be increased from two to three pounds a month, coming as it does on the eve of election, may be for the purpose of sweetening our dispositions. At any rate, it is positively inexplicable in view of the announcement only three weeks ago that there was need of still further restriction and that families Instead of being permitted to buy by the week would be allowed only two purchases a month, thus losing the advantage of the extra two or three days' supply that came in between our former weekly purchases and the two purchases for the calendar month. The manner in which the Washington p dministration is flopping about keeps one guessing, says the Fort Wayne News.

THE PAMPERED SOUTH. If there remains In your mind any lingering doubt as to what is taking place remember that SIXTEEN" SOUTHERN STATES RECEIVED INITIAL EXPENDITURES FOR CANTONMENTS AND STRICTLY" WAR ACTIVITIES THE STUPENDOUS SUM OF $490,306,391.34. TO WHICH MAY BE INCIDENTALLY ADDED A PAYROLL OF $1,500,000 A MONTH. Contrast this with a total expenditure for like purposes In fourteen northern state amounting to $200,559,222.01, says the Lafayette Journal. On September 14, 1918, the revenue commissioner issued his report showing the amount of taxe3 collected for the current fiscal year. The group of sixteen southern states above referred to paid in round figures 5231,600.000, WHILE THE FOURTEEN NORTHERN STATES PAID IN TAXES $2,190,300,000. On the floor of congress Chairman Kitchin or the ways and means committee declared his intention of making the northern bankers pay for this war. A single example of the subscriptions to the Third Liberty loan is rather enlightening. For that purpose Indiana' and Iowa subscribed $201,940,630; their combined population is 5,060.26c. One group of six southern states consisting of ALABAMA, GEORGIA. NORTH CAROLINA. TENNESSEE, VIRGINIA AND LOUISIANA, subscribed ?139,213,"'30; their combined population is 1 4,068,669. Do you propose to let the democratic south reap financial wealth from this war" Well, that's what the democratic admini'ratLm van's it to do.

NO GOVERNMENT COULD DO IT. That It i3 impossible for any government organization to fulfill the mission of supplying the soldiers' and sailors' wants as do the seven welfare organizations combined in the United War Work campaign is the statement of Lieutenant-General Francis Lloyd of the P.ritish army, commanding the London district, in a statement just made public. Lord Milner, secretary of state for war, also indorses this view with a statement that the American fighters have phown the benefits of having these welfare agencies with them.

"I am very happy to testify to the excellence of the

DEMOCRACY'S AUTOCRATIC SPOKESMAN. Announcement is made in Washington that Col. E. M. House, "the president's personal representative," has arrived in Paris and will meet with the allied premiers in a diplomatic war council on Tuesday. Could anything mere anomalous be pictured as coming from what is supposed to be the greatest self-governing republic in the world? Col. House has no official position, is without legal authority and none but. himsolf and the president knows what he is there for and what he is likely to do We are more than 100,0000,0000 strong in the United Stales and have more than 2,000.000 nun overseas. We are buying bonds and doing out utmost to hack our government. Our soldiers in Franco tire giving up their lives. We all know what we want, but vre do r.ot knowtor what we are fighting. We are fighting for what Col. House thinks should be done and nobody but the presi dent has any idt3fi what the colonel thinks. Suppose Iing George were to send a "personal representative" without consulting anybody, what would happen? He would be told in no uncertain terms that this war is not an affair between "rulers" of nations to be settled by their "personal representatives." It probably would be intimated to him that the czar was the last one of the allies supposed to be a law unto himself; that this Is looked upon as a people's fight. We have repeatedly impressed on the enemy that we can not talk to the war lords because they do not represent the German people but do the bidding of the kaiser. Whom does Col. House represent? We have a constitution and laws providing for treaty making and the appointment, of men to speak for the people of the United States. So far as is known. Col. House is not acting under any authority excepting presidential mandate. Certainly the senate, which shares treaty making with the executive, knows nothing about his plans and did not even know he was on his way to Eurore until word of his arrival was made public, says the Indianapolis Star.

THE BEST JOKE IN THE CAMPAIGN. Absolutely and positively the funniest thing in the whole political campaign is the spectacle of old Sam Ralston calling George W. Wickersham "a reactionary politician of the old school." Now you know what the kettle calling the frying pan black means!

A TRIBUTE TO THE PARTY. Governor Lowden, our neighbor to the west, In a recent address, spoke of the war record of the repuMlcan party in the following glowing words: "But great as the republican party has been, I never was so proud of it as I am today when it is out of power. It has never risen to such exalted heights of patriotism and selflessness as it has in these years when a great tragedy has hovered above all the earth. It is easy enough for a party in power, formulating the policies of government and putting them into execution, to be patriotic, but when a party is in the minority, when it has nothing to do with framing policies, when it has nothing to do with executing them, when in other words, it la relegated to the ranks and must follow the leadership of others, then comes the supreme test of the loyalty and patriotism of a party. I submit that in all the history of the world there never has been an example of such absolute unselfishness, patriotism and devotion to country as the republican party exhibits in this crucial hour."

WHERE, OH WHERE, IS BILLY? Whore 13 William .Tenninss Bryan, erstwhile leader of the democratic party, candidate for piesider.t, maker cf at least one president, secretary of state, chautauqua lecturer, prohibitionist, pacifist and politician? For months his name has been absent from the press dispatches. No one knows where he is, what he think3 or what he is doing. He is not quoted, interviewed, interrogated or featured. He has dropped from the public eye and from all consideration. If ever he had any hold on the American people he has lost his grip. In short, Bryan is a dead dog politically and his influence is a thing of the pas. William Jennings Bryan is a splendid specimen of the genus demagog. He figured that America was opposed to war, and therefore, while occupying the office of secretary of state, he exerted his influence to keep America out of the war. It was Bryan who told the Austrian ambassador that President Wilson's Lusitania note was moant for home consumption only and did not mean what it said. It was Bryan who helped to prevent this government from making reasonable preparations fcr the war which was inevitable. It was Bryan who encouraged Henry Ford's peaco expedition, who Journeyed to New Y'ork to speed it on its way with Its cargo of freaks, and who prevailed upon democratic senators rnd congressmen to obstruct all efforts to put America in the conflict which Great Britain and Franco were engaged in fighting the battle for democracy and liberty. Today no one cares what Bryan says. No one wishes to be known as a Bryan follower. No one seeks his advice or asks his opinion. Y'et this man wa.s for years the idol of the majority of the democrats. No politician of his influence ever dropped out. of sight as quickly as has Bryan. The democratic party i3 no longer proud of him. The most of its members do not like to even have his name mentioned when they are present. Portland Tress.
