There is only room for one flag in Lake county and that is the Stars and Stripes. There is room for only one- language and that is the languageof the people of the United States. NO TIME FOR PUSSY-FOOTING. The salvation of Hiis country H io be found in a militant, aggressive, red-blooded, plain spoken, courageous Republicanism. Xo one familiar with conditions throughout the country can be ignorant of the fact that the country is seething with resentment of Democratic incapacity and waste, to Uk?e no stronger term. This discontent will find expression some way. It will either turn the wheels of progress through the machinery of Republicanism, or it will collect as socialistic eteam In the governmental boiler until it bursts. Republicans do their party and their country no service when they depreciate plain speaking criticism of sins of omission and commission by the party in power which have unduly heaped up the tax burdens of the people, or have sacrificed the safety of our t-oldiers on the battlefield. This is no time for milk-and-water "Republicanism. For the safety and the welfare of Republicanism, partyleadership should take an unequivocal position in behalf of the party fundamentals. No loader whose position upon the.-e fundamentals is doubtful should be trusted with gretU responsibility. Party success is something more than electing some man or set of men to office. In fact, no man or set of men is very important as compared with the great principles and poiicie. for which a party worthy of the name contends in the arena of public opinion. , This paper has no apology for the definiteness with which it speaks in behalf of clear-cut Republicanism, and It ha no apology for any brand of Republicanism which now has time for trivialities. This is an hour of sharplydrawn issues, of well-defined differences between the great parties, and particularly between the Republican party and the foes of enlightened individualism, fervent nationalism and representative republican government.

JERRY HAS THE "JACK." AH this sob stuff about Germany being unable to pay the amounts in reparations and indemnities which Kurope demands and Mr. Wilson has thus far unsuccessfully op po-ed. seems to be discounted considerably on reading a general report on savings banks in Germany in IMS. appearing in Die Sparkasse. This report is baed on the

i individual reports of forty-eight of the principal savings

institutions in that country, the depo.-its in which during 191S, as compared with the previous year, increased in the aggregate about thirty-four per cent, or from full.OOO.ooo to $1. 2-9,Oi,'0.0h0. Berlin alone marked an increase of SlfiT.oon.noo in deposits. I? the Kritzes could salt money in that manner during the last and most oppres ive year of the war. they certainly could dig up with in the next half century a sum sufficient to indemnify, partially a; least, the Allies for the ruin wrought by Hunhellishness during the past four and a half years. So far Mr. Wilson alone seems to have been their special plad er in forma papueris.

TOO BUSY SHOPPING. Prince Albert of Great Britain, is busily engaged working in the offices of the air ministry. This is not the first instance of members of. royal families working since the beginning of the Great War. King Albert of Belgium headed his troops at the front, lived with them a.nd i-hared their hardships. The queen served in Red Cross hospitals. The Quen of England worked hour after hour touring the hospitals of England, cheering the wounded and aiding in every way she could. Yet, there nre those who say the "royal ones" never work. Just for the sake of comparison, how many of the royal family of the pre.-ent administration worked in the war? Oh, yes. the cabinet officers worked and some of their eons actually fought on the other side, but just sum them up. Did Mrs. Wilson tour the hospitals? Did she actually work for the Red Cro.-s? If so, w. have never heard about it?

WHY MEN DRINK. Our friend, Abe Martin, has just been trying to figure out "Why Men Drink," and presents some interesting facts. He says: "Nov that th' country is f go 'dry' July first we hear a whole lot o nonsense about th' establishment o" temperance buffets, dry clubs, soft drink bazsrs an' coffee houses places equipped with everything fer th' entertainment o' men, such as bowlin', pool, cards, dominoes, checkers, croquet in season, ice cream an' a la carte lunch. These establishments are t' replace th' saloon an serve as refuses fer men addiicted t' strong drink. Did anybuddy ever go in a saloon f play checkers? Did anybuddy ever f.ry t' worry down a piece o' fried liver in a saloon without a mug o" beer? Our kindly disposed friends seem f ferelt that one indisputable, undeniable fact is that men co in saloons f 'drir.k booze. If they have lots u t!me they drink beer, but if thr goin' f catch a train, or have t meet a fri"nd. they drink liquor. They never

SOCIALISM THE COMING POLITICAL ISSUE? j Within the next two years the democratic part , must either repudiate President VYiUon or it must em j

brHce practically all of the socialist doctrines, under N il-

non's leadership tlte democratic party has constantly re

duced our liberties and unnecessarily increased our taxes.

He has already driven the democratic party to the reluc-1

tant support of many socialistic measures. Unless his power is challenged before hi-- term expires, ihe democratic party will be irrevocably committed by Wilson to socialism under the name of progressive democracy. . This is the startling and deliberate written opinion of no less a democrat than Senator Bailey of Texas. Alongside this statement should be placed the views of George D. Ilerron, an expatriated American residing in Switzerland. Ilerron is a revolutionary socialist, an embryo Bolshevist who calls for the overthrow of our present "capitalistic society" by the complete abolition of the right of private property, substituting instead abolute communism which is to be brought about by the development of a class consciousness among the "working class." In 19 16 and 1917 Herron wrote several article- in the European press about the President, which he published in a little volume entitled, "Wooodrow Wilson and the World's Peace." Ilerron describes Wilson as follows: "He is knowingly undermined certain of the foundation? upon which our capitalist society rests." He has indeed been extraordinarily shifty in the accomplishment of the tilings he believes basic and right." "He has shown more profoundly conscious of the working class than many of the working class leaders." "If we could look deep into this man's soul I think we should find there the ideal of a world at last arriving at a universal communism of production and distribution." "He is revolutionary beyond anything his words reveal, beyond anything his contemporaries have discerned." "As compared with Woodrow Wilson, there are socialist spoke-men who are Bourbon in their understanding and sympathy. As contrasted with America's President, the parliamentary leaders of German socialism are mediaeval reactionaries." The?e writings of Herron's account for the wild enthusiasm with which Wilson was greeted last winter by the extreme European socialists. What does th President think of Herron's account ,'or the wild enthusiasm with which Wilson was greeted itast. winter by the extreme European socallsts. What does the President think of Herron's picture of him? Has he ever manifested any public disapproval? Far from it. Wilson selected and designated this same

j George D. Herron to be a representative of the United

States at the proposed conference with the Russian Bolshevists in the sea of Marmora. Surely no one will construe that appointment as a repudiation of Herron. If Herron's picture of Wihon is correct. Senator Bailey has understated the case. Boston News Bureau.

f INTERNATIONAL NEWS SERVICE LONDON. May (By Mail). All London society is agitated by the latent fashion which decrees that Women's backs shall be bare. It is not merely a little "V" shaped exhibition of Jlilady's back but a wide expanse ail the way down on both sides of the. t-pinal column. A chorus of disapproval of this fashion is heard from prominent society women. Says the Viscountess Churchill: "I do not think that any ladies will adopt this fashion. I go to dances often with my daughters, but I have never seen one of these fashionable backs. One "seldom sees an arm or back good enough to be exposed in public. If 1 were perfect one would look at them as one regards a statue." Lady Asquith sums up her opinion thus: "I dislike th fashions for two reasons: First, because it Kiv's too much jf a display to the public gaze; second, because on most women the fashion is ugly they are not beautiful enough for n. Lady Eyron. dame of the order of the

liritish empire, says that evidently the reason why women favor the ultra decollette is that they probably think it makes them more attractive in the eyes of men. "My experience." says Lady Byron, "is that even the gayest Lothario prefers a woman who makes at least some pretense at modesty." Lady DeRamscy thinks that the bareback style is an "atrocious fashion," and

j -on f esses that she has seen it in the

ball-room but believes that no nic.: women will adopt it. The most pointed observation comes from Lady Price, who says: "It is more than sad that women should allow their young girls to make a mock of their womanhood in the man-

:ner this fashion entails."

"That it is done to please the men Is a fallacy." said she. "I have heard very many young men, especially those who have been fighting in the trenches overseas, say they have no idea where to place their hands when dancing as they can touch nothing but

bare flesh. Many say that they will

give up dancing- entirely as a consequence."
