f ?hr Sillon ijprali |; v A. i. JORDAN Edito r Dillon, 8. On October 17, 1018. The kaiser says ho wants a peac baaed on justice. We don't belief tho kaiser wants that kind of peace Our forefathers had Spanish influ enaa years ago, but they called it i "bad case of the grip." Isn't there some way to delay th< annihilation of the Turks unti Thanksgiving Day? __ Do not expectorate in public places It spreads the "flu" and advertise: you ag a thoughtless and unpolishec non-gen tleiu an. If the "flu" had started last sum rner there are those who would hav< said it was anti-prohibition propa ganda. Don't think the "flu" is for the other fellow and not for you. The onlj person who is immune is the one whc observes simple health rules. Break these rules and the flu may break you. The Spanish influenza does not like lemons. The drinking of lemonade by those threatened with the disease in advocated by those whc claim to know. That reminds us thai hot lemonade is always considered good for a cold; and the Spanish influenza is an aggrava'ed cold with - - " nign ievcr anu umci ? ?io. The people jhould not take Cor niany's peace overtures too seriously The Gernvans are full of tricks am the readiness with which they agreet to accept the 14 peace proposals a: laid down by 'the president las spring docs not look so well on it face. Germany says she is willing t? evacuate conquered territory, bu she does not say she is willing to giv< up Alsace-Lorraine which she stol< fiom the French nearly 50 year ago. But the withdrawal of her ar mies from conquered territory am the surrender of Alsace?Lorraine an matters of minor importance. A fev weekH more of fighting will driv< the Germans back across the bordei and they will hold no conquered ter ritory. The main point ut issue is th< abdication of the kaiser. When Wil liam steps down and out and a pro visional government is formed witb a man of the people at its head then ana iiajii uiuy win mt: auiru iiauuur believe that Germany is in earnest. It ii a foregone conclusion that President Wilson will not treat with the German government so long the kaiser or any member of the Hoenzollern family or any ol' their ilk lias any hand in the administration of German affairs. The hour has struck for German aulrocracy and whether the kaiser steps down and out or is forced out at the point of the bayonet is a matter of indifference to America. That he is going out one way or the other is morally certain and his abdication would only hasten the end. Even if he should abdicate William will not be able to save himself, but he could save his country. There is no questioning the fact that Germany richly deserves the same treatment she has inflicted upon France, Belgium, Koumania and Serbia, to say nothing of her atrocities upon the high seas, but if she makes an unconditional surrender her people and hot cities would be protected by rules ol warfure which the Allies would hi compelled to obtorve. To enter German soil and kill or maltreat prisoners of war or to destroy properly 01 otherwise take vengeance upon tin German people would be a disgraceful repudiation of the principals foi which ao many of our young mei , have died upon the battlefields oi France, and this the kaiser knows. Ii is his one hope; of saving his coun try from the punishment it so riehlj deserves, and it is our firm convictioi that when our armies reach the Ger man border not only will this arcl criminal gladly relinquish his throne but will submit to any kind of peace terms the Allies see fit to dictate Therefore the nation is wnmer against taking his peace proposal! too seriously. Any effort to end hos tilities does not come out of the good nes8 of William's heart. If he had ant hope of winning the war he woulc prolong it indefinitely and sacrifiet the whole human family, with tlu exception possibly of himself and hi; six precious sons, hut he lias cast t* die and lost, and now coward am: pollron that he is, lie seeks to : a\e bis country from physical punishmen by appealing to those same huniai virtues which he spat upon and tram pled in the dust when he thought lu had the world ciuslnd and bleeding at his feet. | | STATEMENT. - Of th?
