TURNER MUST PAY THE PENALTY

Ex-senator George Turner, perhap;
the brainiest democrat in the state 81
Washington, having announced his
candidacy for the senate to succeed
Senator JONES' Is going to have the
power of the national administration
used against him, or at least the pow
er of the administration is going to be
active in support Of his chief oppon-
ent, Mayor Cotteril of Seattle. Sena-
tor Turner is man of national prom
inence having not only served with
distinction in the senate, but has since
been appointed by republican presi-
dent to represent this government In
adjusting the Alaska boundary and to
appear before The Hague peace tri-
bunal in other international disputes.
Why, then, does the national admins
ttation go out of it's way to accom-
plish the defeat Of man of such rec
ognlzed ability? The answer is found
by going back to the democratic con-
vention at Baltimore which nominated
Woodrow Wilson for the presidency
Senator Turner was Champ Clark
man for the democratic nomination
and was member of the Washington
delegation which was instructed for
Clark. During the primary campaign
for the election of delegates to the ma,
tional convention he took occasion to
say some rather uncomplimentary
things about Mr.. Bryan, and when
that gentleman ignored his own in
structions to support Clark and threw
the nomination to Wilson after Clark
had fairly won the nomination by re-
ceiving majority on several ballots,
Senator Turner condemned the action
Of Mr.. Bryan In unmeasured terms.
Now that he again aspires to the SEN
ate. the presiden. and his secretary OF
state see an opportunity to get even.
The fact that the ex-senator took oc-
casion to publicly apologize for his re-
marks reflectiny upon Mr. Bryan and
to pledge his G rdiai support to the
president can not save him from the
wrath to come. He must be defeated
md Inundated by the men he defam
ID, and nothing he can do will change
lis fate. The PRECEDENT has so de-
reed. Thus this democratic president
ot only rules the representatives Of
he people when they reach the cap I
al, but he tells them who these rep
ssentatives shall De.

CONTROL OF WATER POWERS.

Seattle Post Intelligencer)
There was a significant division in
the national conservation congress

or the national government should
have control of water power develop
ment in the public land states-the
only states in which the national gov
eminent has any jurisdiction at all
over the matter of water power devel-
opment
The delegates from the public land
states. representing the people who
are to be the users Of the power to be
developed voted for state control. The
delegates from other states. delegates
representing people who have no direct
interest at all in the subject, voted
for the Pinchot idea that the only pro-
lection which the people Of the public
land states can have against a posi-
BILE monopoly" Of water powers is to
have the control of such powers vest
ed in a bureau at Washington City,
thousands Of miles away from the
power sites and in no touch at all with
the people who are to be the users Of
the power developed.
The Pinchot idea is a radical alb
surdity and will not bear analysis.
Federal government owns the power

power and authority ends. The states

government control, politics will offer
the sole avenue to possible reward.

THE cARABAO SONG.

President Wilson seems to be unduly
exercised over the doings at the re-
cent banquet Of the Military Order OF
Carabao 1t Is probably true tina.
neither officers of the army or navy
who have seen service in the Philip
pines takes any stock in the policy in
Iaugurated by the administration in the
islands. for they know the unfitness Of
the natives for self government. How
ever, they are too loyal to their gov.
eminent to knowingly give outward
expression to their personal feelings
lin the matter. The particular feature
Of the banquet that shocked the presi-
dent was the song which had for it's
refrain Damn, Damn. Damn the In
surrectos." AS a matter Of fact, this
had no reference whatever to present
day conditions In the Philippines. II
was composed and sung IA years ago
when the army and navy were engag-
ed in putting down the insurrection.
The author is unknown, but it was
probably some volunteer or regular
who penned it under the very condi-
lions his lines SO aptly describe. Here
lis the song:
In that land of dopey dreams, happy
peaceful Philippines,
Where the bolo man is hiking night
and day,
Where insurrectos steal and lie, where
Americanos die,
There you hear the soldiers sing
this evening lay:
CHORUS.
Damn, damn, damn the insurrectos,
cross-eyed Kakiack ladrones;
Underneath the starry flag,
ClNiFlZe EN- Win hTaS,
And return us to our own beloved
homes
Underneath the Nipa thatch where the
skinny chickens scratch,
Only refuge after hiking all day |
long,
When ! lay me down to sleep, Shiny
lizards DER me Creep
Then you hear the soldiers sing this
evening song:
Social customs there are few. all the
ladies smoke and chew,
And the men do things the padres
say are wrong;
But the padres cut no dee, for they
live on fish and rice,
When you hear the soldiers sing
this evening song:

LET YOUR LIGHT SHINE.
wv. J. Lampton)

Talk happiness. What if you're not
AS light and as bright as the skies,
Where the sun ever shines
Down the silvery lines
That swing out of Paradise;
VIII the shadows you feel
And do not conceal
Make the shine of the sun any brighter?
Will the burdens you bear
And expose everywhere
Make the load of the weary ones
lighter?
Talk happiness. What though
You've got an overplus Of woe.
Conceal 1t somehow. You will find
There's plenty Of the other kind
To talk their troubles. Don't you let
Yourself be caught in any net
With such bunch. Brace UP and
show
Yourself superior to woe
OF course 1t is bluff; but, say
You needn't give yourself away,
And those who listen need not know
What lies behind your cheerful show
Talk happiness. BY that
You rise above the dreary flat
OF trouble talkers and command
A passing glimpse of Happy Land.
A passing glimpse that brings some
cheer
To you no less than those who hear
The words you speak, and hearing, lift
Their heavy eyes up to the rift
That breaks the clouds and lets the
blue.
With it's good cheer come streaming
through.
Talk happiness. It's hard, no doubt,
But there's enough to talk about.
And though it isn't yours, perhaps,
Rejoice at other peoples snaps.
If you have troubles cut them out,
Or leave to friends to talk about.
Talk happiness, although
Your bosom may be full Of woe.
But If you can't-if you must tell
How far the Lord has not done we'll
By you, go out and throw your words
OF woe and trouble to the birds.

MYLIUS is GIVEN
ANOTHER CHANCE

New York. Jan. 1S.-Edward F.
Mylius, the British journalist barred
by Secretary Nagel, is not to go back
toFFrancsz nntilSthe, United States su-
preme court has decided his case.
Edward Holton James, in whose pa
per, the Liberator, appeared the atti-
Gle for which Mylius served a year in
prison, said this positively yesterday.
In his statement he was backed up by
Simon o. Pollock of the Political Ref
ugee Defense league. who is acting as
counsel for the young man now at
Ellis island.
Mr. Pollock began proceedings yes
terday when he obtained a writ of
habeas corpus from Judge George c.
Holt of the federal court, directing
Commissioner of immigration William
Williams to produce Mylius in court
next Friday.
Mr.. James said also there would be
a mass meeting at Cooper Union on the
evening of Jan. 27 to organize an ag-
gressive campaign for the admittance
of the man who circulated the Liberia
tor, which set forth that King George
of England had married the daughter
of Rear Admiral Culme-Seymour in the
early sos.
In his petition Mr. Pollock, after al
leging Mylius is illegally detained on
the island. says the evidence before
the special board of inquiry was in
competent and that it set forth that
the detained man had been convicted
of a crime involving moral turpitude.
1t was not that, he asserts, but a pO-
litical crime, as the chief justice who
tried Mylius plainly said.
There is no such thing as libel
against the king of England, Mr.. Pol.
lock holds, and Mylius could only be
accused of sedition. Mr.. Pollock wants
all the evidence before the special
boards brought into court
"Of course we are going to fight
said Mr. James. I'VE are going to car.
~ this case to the highest court OF
the land. II is incredible that this
country should lend itself to such con
duct as that in the Mylius case. There
/ is no law TO justify It, no reason, and
no right-only a sickly sentimental
, ity."

WOMEN WORKERS
BEAT POLICEMAN

New York, Jan. 1S.-With hatpins
and umbrellas, several hundred wo-
men fought the police today in one Of
the fercest riots since the beginning
Of the garment workers strike. A lone
policeman, trying to protect male
strike breakers, was beaten TO a fraz-
zle. The policeman arrested one wo-
man. but had TO summon 12 more
bluecOats before he could get the Yo-
man TO a station.
The police accomplished this by
forming a hollow square, which was
beset on all sides by battling garment
workers. Five women were arrested
in another riot, started when women
assaulted a truck driver delivering
mattresses for use of strike breakers
The strike of dress and shirtwaist
makers, one of the several trades in.
vclved in the garment workers strike,
was settled today and most of the 81.
600 will return to the shops Monday.
| The garment workers strike proper
continues. with 10000 involved.

WOMAN TURNS UP
2 AUTO ROBBERS

Chicago, Jan. 1s.-Vengeance of a
woman scorned is said to have been
responsible for the betrayal and ar
rest of James Perry. confessed lead
er of automobile bandits, and his com
panion, Walter Scott. The woman
with whom Perry was on friendly
terms for several years and with whom
he qUarreled is said to have betrayed
the alleged bandits. She is said to
have telephoned the police a tip that
led to the arrest of the men. The
woman is said to have quarreled with
Perry over money matters.
Perry denied he and his companion
committed all the automobile robber-
les of the past months. Il think we
we're the first to start out in the
business this winter, but other gangs
followed our footsteps" said Perry.
81 think there were a dozen gangs
like ours at work at the time we
were caught. Our arrest probably
frightened the others away" Perry
said he would rather hang than di-
vulge the identity of his companions.
Three men who robbed a billiard
room on the west side were captured
today after a running revolver battle
with two detectives.

CHICAGO UNITED
POLICE DISBANDS

Chicago, Jan. 1S.-Another chapter
In the United Police scandal was writ
ten yesterday when the executive COM
mittee and collectors met at 1863 North
LaSalle street and unanimously voted
to disband the organization. The fin
al installment probably will be given
to the public next Wednesday when
the civil service commission will hear
charges against officers and members
of the executive board of the dissolved
organization.
The disbanding of the United Police
is direct result of the recent "sIush
fund hearing by the civil service COM
mission. 1t is understood the commits
sion insits report to the council Mon
day will recommend the dissolution
of the police body. Voluntary action
by the organization plainly was to
forestall forced disbanding.
