COL. BRYAN ON PARTISANSHIP AND PATRIOTISM. It was a pretty epigram if that hs the woru that Col. William Jennings Uryan employed in his speech at Plymouth, Monday; an epiprara rilled v,ith more partisan patriotism than we ever -:uppo.t cl parti-aii.-hip could be capable of. It is tigniticant in tliee tiine; partic ilarly so. Get it: "Political parties in America are patriotic at heart. Partisans think their part .stand fr the thinss that are, best for the country. proven by the manner in which partisan lines disappear when the nation's fundamentals are in danger." And here comes the tplcram: "In the niid.t of a political c impai-n parties mphasize their po.nt.s of difference; in a crisis like this, thfy emphasize their points of agreement the things which they hold in common." When you pet down t-. thinking it nur too, how much more important, and how much th' more vital, "their points of agreement" are? We would like t" commend that tpiram, een to our socialist friends; that is, unless they have no "points of agreement"; unless the I. W. V. has thf ir party siiliciently wormeaten that they have- adopted its initial declaration of principle?, and ci ntend that "the things that they hold in common" with the people, are nil. The fundamental ii-sue In this wi", so fur as America is concerned, is to "make safe the world for democracy" and there should be no difference between political parties, on that point. The "points of difference" can then li" democratically settled; they are not of such freat importance but that they can wait. No mor tallant plea for a united America in th? prosecution of the war has been made since the declaration that a state of war exists. Stephen lecatur, ithen he uld: "Our country with respect to her foreign relations may she ver be ri?ht, but right or wrong:, our country, " or words to that effect was no more emphatic than Col. Rryan, and the Kruff old warrior never spoke half so feelingly. Mr. Bryan put it this way: "No difference how much of a pacifist you ere before w ar w as declared; no difference what your views may h ie been with respect to the advisability of getting into this war. The fact is that we are in it, and that man is not fit to be an American, r,or is he an Americ.n;. who dares by act or word, to int r fere with the progress of the war. or lend any encourHKement or cheer to the enemy. We must fisht; every one of us must ficht, on the farm, in the kitchen, in the factory, in the mine, as well as on the battlefield or battleship, that th peace for which we had hoped, and which has been natched from us. may in the future be made more certain." Incident to which, if anyone can find anything inimical to the patriotism of "ol. Irun, they are welcome to it. has been ar.d i a man of ideals, including ideals of peace, which like a lot of the rest of us he has found it hard to ie up, but now that we are at war. there eems r.o more juestion in his mind but that It must be foucht to the winning end. Let those who would criticise him too because he is making speeches for conservation instead of shouldering a un; well, let no one criticise him unb -s they hae thornf elves shouldered a pun. He is linir.- .t treat work, and preat leader of men that be is. t lv.it man is unpatriotic who lets politic, or prejudice, provoke p.ny sneer at him, he he Veer-Ruzzled doni'rat. w hisky-so.tked re-

NOW A WORLD-HOLIDAY. News keeps ccmins; from all over the world. Europe as well as America, that the Fourth of Juiy this year was celebrated on an enormously renter scale than ever before in history. We are just beginning to appreciate the sismfu ancc of it. In France and England there was more. eoitement about it than in America. The whole Ihitish empire hailed it with enthusiasm, in Russia it was a day of rejoicing. Itaiy added it to her own historic holidays. It was celebrated literally around the world. Hundreds of millions of men and women learned the meaning: of our great national festival. It served as a matchless text for lessons of democratic freedom and aspiration. Thus July 4. 1317, marked the beginning of a new epoch of Anu-ri anism for America. We have soußht to carry American ideals forth over all the earth. We have ur-'ed our frcp institutions as models. We have regarded ourselves as having a historic mission for the deniocratiz iticn of the world. The worths engraved on the oi cracked Liberty bell that hangs in Independence hall registers our national purpose: "Proclaim liberty throughout the earth and to all the inhabitants thereof". We are righting now in the ureatest of wans to safeguard our own freedom and make it available for every people sufficiently enlightened for self-government. We want to se freedom, peace, order, national rightousness and individual opportunity prevailing everywhere. We want a United States of the World. Events are moving to that end. And when he goal is reached our Fourth will be glorious indeed. It may then serve as the natural festival of freedom for all nations. The Fcurth of July may be a world-holiday.

PAID FOR PATRIOTISM. The senate owls are going to blink and hoot for tome time over the question of Mat rate or progressive rate for the excess profits tax, and we have the following from those- who would "follow England" and establish t lie progressive late: "Such a rate should be dra.stic enough to take the major part of profits ureatly exceeeling the normal, without being s. heavy as to remove the incentives to maximum production." In other words, don't take all the war profits above normal profits, but leave the corporations enough of th? unholy war profits to bribe, them to do their best tor the war. And it is not at all unlikely that the I, st. senate will take this very stand, if, indeed, it doesn't let the war profits :i akers off with a low- flat rate. All the lives of all our best men for the war. but when it comes to war profits, we must be very careful lest we offend the profit-makers? and discourage maximum production of war mater'! If there's any answer to this sort of thing, sa- conscription or commandeering, what is it? Self-saerificin ? patriotism by those who have got tr) tight and die. and purchased patriotism by those with incomes of JC.'.OCO or over, or those in war profits up to their armpits!

Potato Bugs! How to Get Rid of Them

CONGRATULATIONS, KANSAS! The Kansas ( ouncil of Defense is not ready yet to rest from its labors. Hut it pauses for a brief time to look over what it has already accomplished before it uoes on to new endeavor. And it deserves r.ot a little credit for the work it has done this spring. A statement on the crop production increase, recently completed, is of general interest. At the council's instigation, two million, five hundred thousand acres of abandoned wheat land were put into corn this spring. ne-half of the five million acres of winter-killed wheat went promptly to corn.. A half million acres went into

oats, seven hundred and fifty thousand acres went into J

the grain sorghums, two hundred and fifty thousand aires went into barley and a similar amount into other spring crops. There are three thousand more acres of potatoes in Kansas this year than ever before. The State Council of Defense accomplished all this by a well-handled mpaign. It not only urged farmers to do more than cur before. It helped the farmer by ar ranging for the uistribution of farm power. It secured the seed and got it delivered at the right time to the farmers who could plant it. It's a good ! ecord. and one that promises more achievement throughout the coming season in harvesting and marketing.

Has anybody cornered whisky? Congress has fixed ud a lovely insp'iation for it.

County Agent John Pordner has issued a warning against young potato bugs resulting from the last few warm days. It follows: IIY .JOHN S. P,()UI)M:k. The potato bugs are not bugs but beetles, but who cares what they are. How to get rid etf them and save the tender juicy potato tops is the concern of all. and doubly so this year when "spuds" are selling for, $4.00 per bushel, and when the seed alone costs from $.10 to $40 per acre. f course, if there were hut a few of them, any old way of destroying them might serve, but when there are literally millions of them the small boy, whose duty it used to be to collect this outlaw of the potato patch is apt to say "Cood nisht." and so did many others last year. Well .he bugs are here again and in a.s large numbers as last year, and picking them by hand is out of the juestion on patches of any size, and then even where the old" bugs are controlled In this way. each female may deposit as many as l.ooo eggs on the underside of the leaves before she is captured, hence the great crop of young bugs. So a word Ihg killing ammunition. Arsenical poisons have been used for years for this purpose and are good when of good quality and properly applied. The two most commonly used are paris green and arsenate of lead. These are sold with their ingredients written in plain English on the outside of the package, hence there is no excuse for buying a material of poor quality. The proper application of either arsenate of lead or paris green will get results. Those who get the best results go about it in this way. i'so of Palis Given. One pound of paris green is worked into a thin paste with some hot water this is then diluted with con

stant stirring for some in or i. minutes. This is enough for 100 gallons of spray. C.ood stone lime slaked with hot water is prepared and what is approximately one pound of lime

in the form of a white wash is used for every loo gallons of the spray. Proportional quantities larger or smaller than this amount may be prepared. The prepared paris green and lime should always be run through a strainer and should not be added to the water until ready for use. lsc of Arvonalo of Ioatl. From six to eight pounds of arsenate of lead is gradually added to several gallons of hot water with constant stirring for at least in or K. minutes. It is best to do this the day before it is to be used in spraying. This is enough to make 1"0 galions of spray. Leüs quantities may be made up. Two quarts of glucose added to either of the above formula for each 10ft gallons will glue the poison to the foilage. f course, it H highly Important that the spray is applied in a very f.ne mist which will cover every part of the plant. One thorough application will do more good thru half a dozen carelessly applied application. He careful in every step because careless work will not kill the bugs. As a blight preventive. F.ordeaux solution may b- used with either of the above poisons added, bordeaux is made by using from six to eight pounds of copper sulphate and eight to ten pounds of good stone lime to 100 gallons of spray.

WASHINGTON. July Upoi the entry of the United States in the war against Germany, Gen. Mclntyre was appointed military censor and immediately was assigned to duty of censoring all messages transmitted by telegraph and telephone across the Mexican border. The

task was not a nw one to him, having occupied a similar position while serving in the Philippine islands. In the present war Gen. Mclntyre has endeavored to perform his official function without the least interference with legitimate business, and already has earned for himself a reputation of fairness which he gained during his Philippine service. Gen. Mclntyre also is press censor, and his idea of censoring is to keep from the public only such information as will be of service to the enemy. He believes that this is a war of the people, and that it is being fought by the people and paid for by them, and that, therefore, they are entitled to know what their forces are doing. With this policy it is his plan to tell the public everything and to thereby cooperate to the fullest degree with the Washington correspondents. As chief of the bureau of insular affairs. Clen.
