PRESS CORPS IN NEXT WAR

II another war cloud should hover
over this country during the present
administration with Lindley ". Garri-
son as secretary OF war, he will be
able to inaugurate his plans for organ
izing war correspondents in the field.
The experience at Vera Cruz in April,
1914, has suggested that a. press corps
be organized. occupying a neutral po-
sitiOn on the field. and still having &C
cess to the points from which the news
can best be obtained. The secretary
suggests. says Joe Mitchell Chapple in
the National Magazine. that the CORE
spondents wear a special uniform, and
that strict rules be enforced concern
ing the qualifications for membership,
and have the membership limited as
far as possible, without running the
risk OF mourning the charge of dis
elimination. Secretary Garrison be-
lieves that the press corps should be
a separate military entity and carry
flag In time OF action bearing spe-
cial insignia, also to be displayed over
their camps, which would be recog-
nized by both armies. as the Red Cross
ensign is internationally respected.
The press corps, properly Differed and
ready for all the exisencies of.the field
and liable 20 be court martialed for
would eliminate the
sensational and irresponsible reports
that sometimes make more trouble
than muskets.
The secretary of war insists that
there is no time when IT is more i'm
portant that the people should have
authentic news than during hostilities,
and even more so when acute situa-
lions are to be met ii allaying racial
passions and war Jurors. Under these
the secretary has outlined
an innovation liable to be adopted by
other governments that will add real
glory to the war correspondents.

| one man out of five can keep up. The
| system provides for the elimination of
/ the four who can not keep up. The
committee on labor of the house has
just reported a bill prohibiting the use
of the stop-watch and other features

Now as to the campaign to require

appropriates in round numbers $780,

colossal sums are expended annually
with ring Of private manufacturers
for war materials. l have produced
a mass of evidence before congress
proving beyond successful contradic-
ton that the army and navy officers
have been permitting this ring TO out
rageously overcharge the government.
For instance, have directed atten-
ton to the fact that army officers have
been very generously paying the am
munition ring $500 for 3-inch finish
ed shrapnel case which Uncle Sam
can manufacture and is manufacturing
in the government arsenals for s1.75.
The army officers are paying the
ammunition ring $3.50 for q 3.S-inch
common shrapnel which they can man.

government arsenals for 1874. When
il is considered that the government
is each year procuring millions of
dollars worth of such supplies, it will
be seen that the saving that can be
effected to the taxpayers by a policy I!

EVENTUALLY, WHY NOT
NOW?

I Eventually the Rock river bridges
and the county Jail; why not now?
This query. borrowed from the ad-
vertising department, is a pertinent
one for the consideration of the voters
OF Rock Island county. No one denies
that we need both bridges and the
county jail, as well. Nobody doubts
that eventually we shall get all three.
So why wait longer for them, espe-
ciaIly since another opportunity in
which the cooperation OF Rock Island
and Moline IS assured may not come
Tor many years.
The objection most frequently met
with is that money is scarce and many
people are out of employment, and that
therefore this is a poor time to in
augurate Improvements. This is easily
answered.
Present conditions, especially in this
community, cannot be otherwise than
temporary. The war will not depopu-
late the world and the half engaged in
i must eat The United States will
have 70 feed a much larger number OF
people than ever before. That means
that there will be an unprecedented
demand for farm produce and that
prices will rule high for a couple of
years, at least.
OF course. agriculture alone is
not the chief industry of Rock Island
county, but farming and the manufac-
turing of farm implements together
furnish employment for the great ma
iOrity OF the workers. If the farmers
are prosperous the farm implement
makers must necessarily be so. The .
which will haul the farm
produce and the implements. Will have f.
plenty TO do and there Will be no les
sening OF the number OF men employ
ID by them IN this vicinity
Under such conditions, Rock Island
county as a whole must prosper. even

ers continue 90 be adversely affected

people here VIII be able 10 pay for i'm

CAPITAL Comment
BY CLYDE H. TAVENNER
CONGRESSMAN from tho Fourteenth District

ted for may be purchased from out
/ side private manufacturers. Ninety
per cent of the appropriations must
hereafter be expended for the manu-
! facture of tho supplies in the govern
ment arsenals. As a result of this
policy the government will save ON an
average 80 per cent, or millions of dol
lars annually, and the men who do
the actual work OF making the muni'
lions will receive higher wages and
better conditions than if the work was
awarded to the three firms comprising
the ammunition ring. which are motor
ious as the most bitter enemies of or
ganized labor in this country.
II all profit is taken out of war and
preparation for war. / predict that
some of the very millionaire patriots
who are now agitating for an ever and
ever increased amount Of armament,
in the certain knowledge they will
make huge profits by supplying the
same, will be the loudest to protest
against the annual expenditure of
S25O, 0OO. 900 for war in time of peace.
| have called the attention of con-
gress to the fact that at the Rock Is
land arsenal the government has two
great 100000 stone buildings stand
ing idle which could be used for man
ufacturing purposes, and also abso-
lutely free power as result of the
fact that the government owns a great
power plant in the Mississippi at Rock
Island arsenal and can manufacture
these war materials cheaper there than
at any other arsenal in the United
States.
/ am also carrying on a campaign
to have the government locate the
proposed 100000 government armor
plate factory at Rock Island, where
the government owns 500 acres of
land ideally located for such a pur-
pose, without having to buy land for
a site elsewhere. l am carrying on
campaign to acquaint members of
congress with the fact that the United
States government has a far greater
prize than it realizes in the Rock Is
land arsenal property, where it can do
its manufacturing cheaper than at any
other arsenal in the United States,
and 1 make the prediction that when
the government accepts the policy of
all its munitions of
war, as it is certain to do ultimately,
that the Rock Island arsenal will be-
come one OF the largest military man
centers in the world.

Hay Fever.

Now that the closed season for hay
fever has arrived we may safely ven
ture to discuss this delicate question.
Victims of the disease have poured in
a veritable avalanche of inquiries
about in which we made up our mind
TO answer in this article-after the sea
son had closed. 1t seemed foolhardy
TO risk saying anything about it while
the country was up in arms.
What is hay fever, alias ragweed
fever, rose cold, autumnal catarrh,
periodic rhinitis? 1t is a neurosis, like
hives or hysteria, to which certain in
dividuals are susceptible under certain
provocation. Some people have hives
if they eat lobster or crabs. Some
go into Mysteries when excited. Some
make a great TODD over a microscopic
bit OF vegetable pollen or other organic
particles floating in the air-that is,
develop hay fever. All of these, re-
actions are attributed to a peculiar
hereditary sensitiveness of nerve
cells. And it is safe to say that each
OF them, hay fever included, can be
overcome by educating the nerve cells.
For instance, a physician handled
for the first time an anaesthetic, anti
septic busting powder in treating a
wound. In a few hours he suffered a
severe eruption of erythema and hives
which rendered him unrecognizable. II
laid him low for over a week. for he
had never exhibited any particular idi-
osyncrasy or hypersensitiveness he
fore. But a few weeks later he again
busted a wound with the same pow
der, and once more suffered a severe
erythema, and this time II was not so
and did not disable him. Now
he began TO be suspicious He care
fully refrained from handling the drug

doubts finally. and he cautiously I'M !

Why? Because, by repeated small
loses (absorbed by inhalation or poss-
bly, through the skim he had immu-

The Daily Story
Tragedy of Mining Camp-By F. A. Mitchell
Copyrighted 1919. by Associated literary

In n western miners camp composed
If a number OF men and a few women.
the latter mostly the wives OF the for
mer, was a girl about seventeen years
old who belonged to no one. She was
the property of the camp. not having
q relative or a friend in it. Just how
she happened to be there, where she
had come from. what was her name,
no one knew. They called her MadGe.
but who had given her the name was
also unknown. If any one asked her
about her antecedents she replied that
she had grown up with the camp.
If Madge had been well dressed and
clean she might have been considered
comely, but since no one had seen her
under these conditions it never occur
red to those who saw her that she
could be anything but homely. The
only part of her person that was ever
clean was her hands, and since this
came from washing dishes they were
usually greasy. She attached herself
to a household to do its dirty work I'M
til the temper of her mistress rendered
her position intoIerabe when she
would find another abiding place.
The men, who were as rough as the
women. if they did not illtreat Madge,
inflicted upon her their coarse jokes.
When she was spoken TO in way cal
culated to hurt the feelings of any Of
her sex she would show no repugnance.
no pain, though she never returned the
insult in kind. If her hair was de-
scribed as a mop she would neither
take offense nor would she comb it.
There was a man called John in the
camp whose position correspondent with
Madge's, only sMadge worked and John
did not. He made a living no one knew
how, though all admitted that he did
not make it honestly. When persons
desired to be facetious at Madge's ex- |
pense she would be asked why she +
didn't make a match with John. The /
thrust was all the more cutting mas /
much as John was the only man in the /
camp who illtreated the girl other than /

THE QUALIFICATIONS OF A
HDGE

The course Probate Judge B. S. Bell
has taken in the Alice Lyness case is
likely to prove unfortunate for him in
view of the fact that he is now a candi-
date for reelection. Coming at this
particular time it raises a serious ques-
ton of his fitness for the office
I In this case he may have been, and
undoubtedly was, actuated by only the
. best of motives. but now that the facts
( have been brought out, they show that
he acted hastily and with poor judg-
ment.
Citations have been pointed out
showing that he even failed to take in
to consideration the legal aspect of the
case, laying himself open to the charge
that he was not fully versed in the
procedure and in the relative powers
OF courts.
There can be little doubt that he
was Influenced to take part in an ar
rangement for the purpose of evading
the decree OF the circuit court and he
himself has admitted that he employed
the unusual plan OF entering a fictitious
.name In his minutes in order to &C
complish that end. The least that can
he said is. that he suffered himself 10
be actuated by partisan motives in a
case when, as a judge, he was sup
posed TO view the issues without preju-
dice.
Under the circumstances, the peo-
pie may we'll ask themselves whether
he has exhibited the poise and the tenn
permanent which a position on the
bench demands-in other words
whether on his record he is entitled to
reelection.
