Men guilty Of desertion are to be
confined at Leavenworth Kans., in
what will be known as the United
States detention barracks, to be given
an opportunity to see the error of
desertion. and when, in the opinion
of the officers in charge, they have
had ample opportunity to reflect,
they will then be allowed to serve
the remainder of there enlistment
in the ranks. After which they
will again be given an opportunity
to reenlist if they so desire. This is
move in the right direction. De-
serters are not criminals and should
not be classed as such. Under the
new regime they will not be de-
prived of their citizenship rights.
This of course only applies to de-
sertion in times of peace.
Former Congressman Cole, of
Ohio, in an address before a jury
at Findlay, Ohio, defined love in the
following glowing terms: Love
shines brightest in the sunshine
and at the beginning of day. 1t stands
the test of time, endures and is pat
lent and CLOVIS with light, clear,
bright and steadfast when in the
travail Of gloom and sorrow. It's
effulgence shines with a matchless
radiance in disappointment and in
the dusk and twilight Of attack it
still remains"
This is the best definition of love
that it has ever been the writer's
privilege to read. As an old say
ing goes: 1T is all wool and
yard wide"

The portion OF Mr., Wickersham 8 ad-

Friend and foe have been treated
alike" he said. "and II truthfully has been

TELLS CONGRESS HE
DOES NOT APPROVE

WASHINGTON, Aug. 14.-President
Taft today vetoed the steel bill.
In a message to congress the presi-
dent said he disapproved the measure
because il provided for revenue only
and took no account of protection Tor
American industries. He condemned
the ways and means committee Tor re-
fusing public hearings on the Dill his
veto was expected.
Mr.. Taft gave as another reason for
his veto that the bill affected not only
the iron and steel industry, but lfty~
nine allied industries which, he said,
were worth separate classification.
Mr.. Taft wrote he was not prepared
to say there were no items In the steel
schedule which ought not to be re,
duced, but he pointed out that its ad
valorem rate was an apparent reductlon
of 10 per cent from the duties of tho
Wilson law.
"a bill for complete revision of
this schedule was presented to mo a
wear ago IN the extra session of this
congress- wrote the president Many
increases and decreases of rates are
now made from those named In the
former measure. The changes are not
explained, and indicate a hasty method
pursued in the preparation of both. Is
it not fair to ask, either on the basis
or protection or revenue, Whicn was
right9
''On the whole, therefore, I am not
willing to approve Of legislation of this
kind, which vitally affects not only
millions of working men and the fami-
les dependent on them, but hundreds
of millions Of dollars worth of stocks
of goods in the hands of storekecpers
and distributors, without first provid-
ing for careful and disinterested in"
ouiry into the conditions of the whole
industry.
"From the outset Of my administra-

the facts. I have provided the means
| for securing such information in the
appointment of a tariff board, Its
| thorough work, already completed on
several schedules, has justified my con
