Wausau Pilot TUESDAY, FEB. 19. 1918. OFFICIAL CITYAND COUNTYPAPER. Euollshed weekly and entered at the Post Office at Wausau as second class matter. This paper Is a member of the Wisconsin Patriotic Press Association and pledges its uncompromising loyalty to our government in this war. COMMUNICATED What a man sows he shall reap. If we continue to sow hatred we shall reap its fruits. The campaign of hate promul gated in our country is gradually bearing its!fruit. Let’s cut it out, root it out quick, wherever found. No good can be accomplished by a campaign of hate. Much has been said and written re garding our recent election. Some peo ple want to make it appear that they were much surprised at the result. But why should they pretend to be. The result was inevitable in the face of meth ods used by a certain element among our voters., The proof for this statement can be found in the reading of the advertising used and the editorials that were written. Let us go back to the primary. What was the campaign there ? Was it against the socialistic candidate? No! Was it not rather against the two candidates with German names? It was against Marth and Paulus. Of course, the dem. ocrats and republicans did not want to see Marth win, but why should they op pose Paulus? Then why inject the loyalty question ? The inference made was that any candi date with a German name could not possibly be a loyal American citizen, and that’s the rub. Such stuff will not go down the throat of the man and woman of German extraction without resent ment. No man has a right to condemn 99 per cent of a class of citizenship for the 1 per cent that may not be what they ought to be. We would not kill off a whole • community beciuse one of its number had taken another’s life. No, there must he a reconstruction of our thinking Altogether too many men and w mien carry with them the thought that no man with a German name can pVisibly be loyal to this, his country. L.r a year or more we have been taught to suspect a large part o f our citizenship, and what the result will be no one knows. Countrymen, we are all in the same boat. You men who are suspecting your fellow citizens of German blood can’t get away from them and they can’t get away from you, We must not fight each other, lest we tip the boat and all are lost. There are very dark days ahead. America will need the undivided support of all of tts citizens to come out of this strife and turmoil whole and success fully. Let’s quit this despicable business of nagging each other and get to the oars. The need is calling for all of our strength, all that we are and have, let’s not waste one ounce of it in fighting each other. YOURS FOR AN UNITED PEOPLE.

The day previous had been an ideal day, spring-like and very warm and when the storm came up from the north east, the snow was damp and soft, next to a sleet, and everything out-of-doors was covered with a heavy coating of snow, such as one only has the privilege of wit nessing occasionally in a life time. Later, the wind increased until after the noon hour it became a perfect gale, the fine snow falling so thickly that one could hardly see only a dozen feet ahead. This continued until late in the evening, the weather growing colder all the time. The wind shifted around to the north and before Friday morning the clouds rolled away and zero weather was with us again. On the St. Paul road the storm was the most severe from the extreme end of the line north to Junction City. All through freights were suspended. The north and south bound passen gers were several hours late. The 7:30 a. m.. train. Friday morning was about four hours late. Freights were suspended on the C. & N. W. road Thursday and no pas senger trains. came over the road on Thursday night. Passenger trains due here at 9:05 and 10:05 Friday morning were three hours late. Throughout the county the roads were blockaded by large snow drifts and it took several days to open them for travel. The mail carriers were stalled* on Thursday, only one being able to go over his route. Friday conditions were even worse and none were able to make the rounds. The street cars were able to run but not on scheduje time exactly. It was necessary for the snow plow to be run over the line continually to prevent the line being blockaded. The company is to be congratulated on the excellent service given its patrons.

Thurs day, the evening on which the Fathers and Sons participated in supper in the Y. M. C. A. gymnasium, was the occa sion of the heaviest snow storm of the winter and yet it did not keep away those who had ordered plates re served for th§ supper, at which there were 130 seated. The supper was served by the Ladies’ Auxiliary of the Y. M. C. A. and how they managed to give such a splendid supper at 25 'cents per plate, was a riddle to the many heads of families present.

A., the hardest game of basket ball of the season was played before the larg est crowd of the year. The visitors were the West Green Bay high school team. Much enthusiasm was shown by the crowd in the way of cheering. In the first half superior playing was shown by the home boys and the score ended 21-14. During intermis sion, Mr. Batesole led the cheering, which certainly showed the team a fine backing up. During the second half the Green Bay team seemed to play the best game, tho’ they could not bring up the score in their favor. The closely contested game ended with the final score of 35-27 and our victory. The line-up was as follows: Hess, center; Schneider and Wolf, guards; Leak and Cook, forwards.

The first dose benefited him so much that I continued giving it to him until he was cured.” How Columbus Was Misled. Every schoolboy knows that when Columbus discovered the island of Cuba and the rest of the western world that he did not know he had discovered anew world, but thought he had circumnavigated the globe and had found anew way to cross the ocean to Asia. It is a curious fact that the Indians of the island of Cuba unconsciously confirmed this belief. H j asked them the name of one of the villages, and they said, “Cubanaca,” and Columbus thought that they were saying, “Kublaibahan,” the name of the Tartar village mentioned by Marco Pclo, whose record Columbus had read.
