Show the more we try to solve the 11 ll v problem what the war is abo about u t the more we b become acome befuddled lord kitchener says that the war will continue for about three years and he is in a position to know V our ancestors anc esters got along without automobiles of course but just look at them they are mostly dead the kaiser will have to hurry if he is going to that christmas dinner in paris as he once boasted he would war is the outward expression of hate which is the emotion that europe has been cultivating for some time I 1 0 0 while having no regular day for it the mexican generals appear to resign oft enest on tuesdays and thursdays with characteristic precision japan has accomplished the part assigned it in the honorable war and now wishes to know what next its illustrious allies desire that fath er who shot and killed the defendant in a washington court room while being tried on the charge of assaulting the slayers ten year old daughter may have been justified in his act but he should not have been so reckless he also killed one of the jurors im paneled on the case it was rumored that some of those european generals had captured old santa claus and would not permit him to visit america this winter but we notice that he has already unloaded about a car load of hi s pack in some of the stores t 1 of roosevelt and nd must be hiding very near here the lackawanna railroad co has installed wireless telegraphy on their line from buffalo to new york city for all train order service they find it much cheaper than the regular wire telegraph and it cost much less than the old pole and wire system for its installation passengers can also receive and send met messages sages without leaving the train it strange that the D du u chesne correspondent of the reservation news is always full of the great and bright things that judge smith accomplishes A reader would naturally think that judge smith was the cheese in duchesne for heavens sake who is judge smith and what has he ever dons done except sign his name as chairman of the democratic central committee or the duchesne correspondent of the news suggests that judge smith should use his influence and get mr oneill out on an itonery in the next campaign and the socialists would have a walk away if it been for mr oneil and mr timothy gray buld have had easy sailing but they condemned the action of the vacancy committee in open speeches all over the county in placing a socialist on the democratic ticket arid and thereby defeated the socialist candidate for county attorney the plea that is being made for the belgians in a foreign land will cause many of our own ato suffer and s sirve in the midst mi ast dst of alenty Ol plenty enty there are thousands of persons many of them little orphans in our cities who seldom enjoy the pleasure of a full stomach and many of them will sit during a large part of the long evenings this winter by a stove that is cold it is no credit to the people of america that many of them can see nothing unless it is called to their attention by a brass bandor band or a battery of artillery we suggest that the government instruct local officers to make a record of the names of those who seem to think that because ak a few foolish americans who elected to remain in mexico in preference to this country have had their pr property confiscated and occasionally one of them kill killed ed the united states should coffier as a foolish sacrifice thousands of real americans who love their country well wel enough to live in it for future use then if it becomes at all al necessary to send a few targets across the line yank those fellows up and start them south with a line of bayonets behind them it would bean be an awful funny spectacle to see them on their way but sad to relate that thai they would never come back yet it would be a relief to be rid ric of their lings and yel pings in canada just now they are agitated over what is there regarded as a probable organization and mobilization of several hundred undred ti thousand german americans in the ur united cited states for the invasion and seizure of canada and a presentation of it to the kaiser as the contribution of his royal subjects in this country it is impossible to say just how profoundly stirred the canuck has allowed himself to become over this talk what we know is that the matter has hag been discussed in some of the public meetings in the dominion probably there is no class of citizens in the united states with a keener realization of the value of neutrality as a means of quickly restoring the prosperity of this country than the germans it is a noticeable noti cable fact that while kretchmen Krench men aus arians russians serviano ians and some englishmen have voluntarily returned to tc offer their services the german has stayed here and contributed his part to the assistance of the country of his adoption whatever his sentimental interest in the fatherland may be his practical interest is is all in the bro brothe therland and that is is the interest he is keeping an eye on to think of him arming himself and swarming over the canadian border to capture a prize for the kaiser by smashing the neutrality of the united states into smithereens is to conjure up before the mental vision one of the most amusing sights in the world
