WILSON AND REPUBLICANS.


find some flaw, in President Wilson'S
political armor. are sorely tried. About
the best they can do is to say. Well
maybe things won't turn out as well
as they look. and in that event Wilson
and the democratic party will be Kicked
ut."-Cedar Rapids Gazette.
The democratic and independent and
bull moose people have united in an
effort to make out the republican party
as one Of forbodlng and calamity. The
above from the Cedar Rapids paper is
sample Of expressions being made
almost universally by the press and
speakers OF the republican partys op-
ponents. The democrats forget that
for forty years they have been the
doleful ones Of the country. predicting
the nation was going to the dogs every
time the republicans elected a presi-
dent. They forget that all this time
prosperity was growing under the in
fluence of republican principals.
For this entire" time they strove al
most in vain to defeat their opponents
by the Cry of calamity, and it was only
when the republican party became
divided that they succeeded by a
minority vote in securing control Of the
government. Thousands Of republicans
deliberately assisted them in their VIC
tory. preferring that they should be
the dominant party than that Roose-
welt with his vagaries should seize the
reigns of government.
No president has ever had the sup.
port and backing that Wilson has.
Two thirds of the republican papers
have said give him a chance" And
they have, in their editorial columns,
carried out this fair attitude. 1t is an
attitude the forces, and the press OF
democracy never. for an instant held
toward any political enemy. Their
methods have been those of BUSH
whackers.
The democrats came into power I'M
der false colors. They deceived many
voters into casting their party's bal
lot by promising cheaper living. and
better times, and no injury Of any kind
to business. So far none of the
promises has been carried out. The
only claim they can make to dispo-
siton Of gloom in the part Of the re-
publicans is the warnings that have
been uttered by sane men OF that party
against some of their extrayagant poll
cies, which had they advocated before
election would have caused their utter
defeat.
Republicans do not hope for calam-
ity as the result of President Wilson's
policies. They have feared it. and Will
be mighty glad II the democratic
dreams happen ultimately to come
true. The welfare Of business, and
Of their country is their first thought
They honestly believe that only thru
the policies of the republican party
which have succeeded for years. can
real prosperity be continued in this
land.

POOL.
Jefferson Bee.J
Personally we do not think there is
any harm in pool. nor a deck of cards,
as far as the articles themselves are
concerned. 1t is what men make of
them. A pool hall, laxly managed as
most Of them are, permits swearing
and unseemly language, things more
harmful to the boy than the game is.
Pool, of course, has it's bad side in
the publicly conducted place. There
is no amusement more fascinating.
And, on the other hand, there is
nothing boy or man can engage in,
which from financial viewpoint, is as
poor sport. There is mot cent
in it," less by far than anything we
know of. except to the owner OF the
pool hall. man may gorge himself
with SIS dinner--but he has the din
ner inside. He may drink whisky-he
has the poison stuff in him. But when
he finishes game of pool, he hasn't
thing. Half the time he hasn't even
satisfaction-partcula If he got beat.
The boy who thinks he can satisfy him
self with pool is mistaken. because one
game only calls for another, and more
expenses. If he keeps it up all his
days, and, like lots Of men, let's it
interfere with his business, you will
find him. late in life. doing the most
mental work, and cursing the country
because the "guvv'ment never done
anything for a pore man"
Life has it's serious problems, but
amusements for the young man ought
not to be such a big one. The subject
is harped on too much, and mountains
made Of it where molehills only exist.
If questionable amusements are cut
out of the boys life Green nor any
other person ought to object to it. Good.
wholesome anusements can be found
in plenty, in every town in the land.
and in most rural sections. and there
is no use in magnifying the lack in
places where they do not exist.

APPROVES BOTTLED milk

U. S. Agricultural Experts Believe
It to Be Sanitary and Com
mercial Success.

The process Of bottling pasteurized milk
after 1t has been pasteurized in bulk
meets the appreciation Of experts Of the
the process has several advantages
which make it seem probable that this
method would prove both economical and
eficaeious when practiced on COM
mercial scale.
Laboratory experiments conducted by
the Investigators indicate that milk may
be paste,,rized, bottled hot. capped with
ordinary cardboard caps and cooled by
blast of cold air economically and
with very satisfactory bacterial reduc-
tons.
1t is said that this method results in
bacterial reductions as great as. or even
greater than, by pasteurization in bot
ties. The principal advantage of the lat
ter method for the ordinary systems in
commercial use is the impOssibility of
the milk becoming contaminated again
while being bottled. There Is also some
saving of milk, because there is no loss
from evaporation.
On the other hand. when milk is pas
teurized in bottles 1t is customary to
cool the bottles by placing them in cold
water. This necessitates the use Of alb

a The Searchli8ht |
A Movie" Panorama.

A moving picture apparatus has
been invented which throws its scenes
in continuous panorama in ring
around the surface of a cylindrical
screen. The spectators stand in the
center of the space inclosed by the
screen and take in only such parts of
the performance as they would be able
to get in real life. This new movie"
sort is more tantaliZing than six-ring
circus.
The effect produced upon the specta-
tor by the moving panorama is said to
be that of persuading him that he is
standing in the midst OF the actual
scene depicted. With pictures in prog
reks before, behind and on both sides
of one, the Illusion Is complete, and
the watchers instinctively duck for
cover every time an automobile careens
around the corner.
The new movie is best designed for
private exhibitions. 1t can be hung
above the heads of the spectators. The
effect is secured by combining much
the same principles of the ordinary
panorama machine with those of the
moving picture protector. The piano.
rama part of the device operates at
such high speed that breaks between
the pictures are not detachable.

Foreign Models and Our Gain.

AS far as the writer is able to deter
mine the Cleveland experiment Is the
first application Of the Cancellation idea
to the courts of an American city.
Judge Levine, who wrote the rule Gre
ating the court, used the Cancellation
courts Of Norway and Denmark as
models. In those countries courts of
conciliation have been in operation
since the eighteenth century. They
were successful from the first and have
been granted larger powers from gen.
GRAFTON to generation. Cancellation
there. is compulsory before a suit can
be brought in the ordinary law courts.
Four-fifths of all cases are settled in
this way. Some years ago North Da-
kota adopted the idea In the lower
courts of the state. but the powers thus
granted are small and suited only to
rural communities.
The pressure Of business In the regu-
lar court has been immeasurably re-
lieved by the adjustment of so many
small suits. More than all else Is the
gain in respect for American institu-
lions, which must come from the opera
tion in a great cosmopolitan city Of a

application of common sense alone.
