The N1,ooEr printcd

The NUGGET printed dispatch from Washington which quoted ont Henry Lane Wilson as sayng thai the present American administrative was a lot of old maids and that the present policy wns n mother hu.'I,ar. policy, whatever that meant.
 There may be. nay there are. mon h President Wilson's cabinet who are not much more use to the presiden! than would be lot of old maids. Bu; these gentlemen who hold their posi- tions for purely political reasons, do not seem to be doing so much talk ing just now us they did while back and 1t would appear that Prcsi- dent Wilson himself Is handling the Mexican affair and surely no one can accuse him of being an old maid or political biathersisite.
 As for the mother hubbard policy, we do not know just what the ex- ambassador means by that. hut if It Is looking in the cubbard and finding 1t bare of any sort of policy at all to feed to the Mexican dog he is not far from wrong as to what the con- ditions were before tho president him- self took hold of the affair.
 We remember saying ourselves a while back that Washington had been searched in vain for some sort of U policy and none had been found. Since that time the president of the United States has himself evolved policy and the fact that he has not taken the people into his confidence In rec aged to what It is does not matter fo- MT. Woodrow Wilson is not a man of falacious theories.
 Hut even if the president of the United States was as big a political clown as some of his eminent coun- trymen 1t little behooves n disgraced and discreditcd diplomat to enter the nation's capital in tho guise of a lcc- turer and openly cast q slur on the man who removed him from oflicc for cause. It could not happen in any country save the United States and it is . disgrace to the republic that t can happen here.
 It would hayc bcen n sublime cxhi- bition of patriotism on tho part of the audience at tho Belasco theater night before last in Washington if 1t had arisen and left tho shcatcr to the sole occupancy Of Mir. Henry Lane Wilson. late ambassadors to Mexico.

 The people who can afford to inc dulge in these pleasing pastimes are getting together and things are l,e- ginning to movo along in a fairly enthusiastic manner. It looks as if everybody was going to have a gooi time. Everybody? Wait IS every body going to have a good time md q good Christmas:

 Most of us have nude plans of one kind or another for the passing of the winter in a pleasant and profita- bic manner. It is right that we should do this and that we should get every ounce of enjoyment possible out of what Is going on. hut we must not s'rget that there may be some cthors to wlIcm the winter holds no such picspxts ns pleasant evenings over the card tables in the company of congenlal friends. No dances loom O. thc orizons of some as beacon lights thro' tho dark winter and no cheerful Christmas dinnr invitingiy' becons some on to the happy days of the holy season.
 In making our preparations do no. lot us forget In our own enjoyment those who through force of circuin- stances cannot look forward to the cheerful oases in the long winter weeks. Those for whom the winter means but one long chcerless dreary round of days. Especially is 1t im- portant that there bc no littic children who wiil miss the God given right of every child to a season of happiness and good cheer at Christmas time.
 It is far more important that thesc little ones should be made happy by some extraordinary pleasure connect cd with tho holy time of Christmss than it is for the srownups to pass n few pleasant hours.

A NICARAGUA CANAL
BELIEVED BY MINISTER cASTRlL.
10 THAT iT WILL BE BUILT
az v. ..
WOULD SHORTEN PANAMABY2OOo Nj.
Nicarasuan Government Has Ap
proved Of Treaty Negotiated by
ex-President Taft-Secretary
Bryan Favors Plan.

Another great Atlantic-P Pacific wa.
terway. making ship route between
the eastern and western coasts of the
United States, 1000 miles shorter than
through the Panama canal, will be
built soon by the United States, Is the
opinion Of DR.. Salvador Castrillo, retir-
ing Nicaraguan minister In q state
ment recently DR.. Castrillo said he
believed canal treaty would be nego-
tiated between the United States and
Nicaragua and that the canal would be
constructed across his country.
The canal treaty, which is an inner.
itance from the Taft administration,
was negotiated by Minister Weitzel
last winter and has received the ap-
prevail of the Nicaraguan government.
BY its terms Nicaragua, for $4,000, 900,
would grant the United States the ex-
elusive right to construct canal
across Nicaragua by way Of the San
Juan river and Lake Nicaragua. This
government also would have right to
acquire coaling station in the bay OF
FOnseca on the Pacific side.
"Of course, the pending treaty may
be modified" said DR.. Castrillo. "but
! am greatly encouraged by Mr.. Bry-
ans assurance that he takes a broad
view of the subject after careful ex-
animation OF the provisions Of the pro
posed rOtue.
After all, the Panama is OF military
and strategic Importance. but when 1t
is realized that Nicaraguan canal
would shorten the route to the Pacific
coast by an additional 1000 miles am
convinced that 1t will be built"

Or. Mary Walker Says Men Are Not
to Blame That Girls Go Wrong.
1.-THE widespread immortality among
men and women. boys and girls, the
horrible menace # social disease, the
physical weakness Of nearly all women
and the blindness, curvature Of the
spine. club feet. tuberculosis. rupture.
infantile paralysis and other Ills from
which so many children suffer, are all
directly traccable to one thing the
immoral. unhealthful and ridiculous
style Of women's dress"
That 10 what the most famous advo-
cate In womens dress-Dr. Mary
Walker said, when asked her opinion
Of the low-necked, short-sleeved, tight
skirted, petticoatless costume Of 1918.
It is no new theory with her. She
has been advocating It for little mat
ter Of IS years, having donned trousers
herself at the age Of IS. worn them
constantly and preached for male at
tire for women in season and out Of
season ever since. Now, ct the age OF
73, still going about the world In rssn's
trousers, frock coat, silk hat standing
linen collfr. cravat and mems shoes.
she Is more positive than ever that the
solution Of nine-tenths Of society's
troubles Ia for women to dress like
men.
