A HIGHLY MORAL OUTFIT.

The funniest thing that has happen
ed in the politics of this state Is
Roosevelt's endorseT Nent of Falconer's
candidacy for the senate, and Ole Han
sons denunciation of the bosses, big
and little, in the progressive party.
The progressives are splitting over the
offices, and not even their immense
devotion to principle and the covenant
with the people to consecrate them
selves to all that is beautiful, ideal,
socialistic and impossible, can hold
them in the fraternal bonds of love
under the fatherhood of Teddy and the
fellowship of Flynn. The Seattle Star,
which is supporting Hanson in its
characteristic fashion of damning the
ether fellows, meets the endorsement
c. Falconer by Roosevelt with the dec.
laration that it canard sprung by the
standpat press, while Hanson is fran
tically telegraphing to the big boss to
retract, or give him a like endorse
ment, and bitterly condemning Roose-
velts interference in the primary cam
paign as unfair and uncalled for.
Paulhamus has taken the stump for
Falconer, and now the Star and Han
son are bowling about Paulhamus
railroad lobbying record and painting
him in all the foul colors of faithless
reactionary and enemy to the PEG
PIE. 1t is a merry war and most di-
verting So many who were saints but
q day or so ago are now devils incar-
nate. The hosts of Armageddon, so
long sustained by spiritual ecstacy, al
the sight of meat, become like unto
r2venous beasts and rend and rip and
rive one another with all the ferocity
o: carnal savages.
This vulgar exhibition of fierce hui
man frailties and primal instincts
among those who tvt lately paraded
in the cloak of assumed virtues OF
superior excellence, would be describ-
ed by the scholarly colonel as a spe-
cies of atavism, or recurrence to the
CT stoms and manners of barbarisn
ancestry.

In publishing communications of

In publishing communications of a
v;irolic character in which partisan
sides are taken in discussion of the
European war the daily papers are
creating much ill feeling among for
eign born residents. Furthermore, it
is not complying with the mandate OF
the schoolmaster p 'esident that the
people of the United States must re-
frain from taking sides in favor of any
&C the nations engaged in hostilities
This is an order easy to issue bu'
very difficult to enforce, for it is but
human nature to have an opinion upor
matter of such momentous import
ance and human nature to express that
opinion.

FEAR RECKLESS EDITORS
H onest Newspaper Men in Danger
From Editors and Reporters Who
Distort the Truth. Declares Isaac D.
Conference.

Lawrence. Kan. May 1.-THE honest
men Of the country are in
danger from the reckless editors and
reporters who habitually distort the
truth. Isaac d. White. of the New York
World told the editors at the national
n eyrspap per conference at the University
of Kansas today.
Mr.. White discussed the legal re-
straint that is being imposed from the
freedom of the press in several states.
When the we'll seasoned Journalist
hears of some new law designed to
affect the newspapers declared Mr..
White. he is quite certain to resent the
idea without stopping to consider
whether it is good. bad or Indifferent
We seldom seriously consider the other
side Of the proposition that lawless
and hCentiOus press might prove worse
for all concerned, and particularly for
us as journalists, than no press at all.
When we diSSect and analyZe freedom
Of the press and look up its pedigree
and see il tried out in the courts we
discover that II has very well defined
limitations like ali liberties must have
under a popular government"

OWEN SCORES HUERTA.
Brands Him as Reasonable Usurper
and Saws Country Can Not Turn Back

Washington, May 14.-Assertins that
President Wilson was more than JUS
titled in refusing to recognize Nicto-
rjano Huerta as president of Mexico
and that the United States must not
turn back until it has esta b!lshed con-
stitutional government in that repuo-
lie. Senator Owen startled the senate
with a renarka Die 6enunciattOn OF the
Mexican dictator.
His speech was an intimate history
of Huerta. whom he called a treason
able usurper from the time he tore
the reins of power from the hands Oh
Madero TO the present day. Thru 1t
ran the color of blood and its story
reeked with murder intrigue and Vlo-
lence where innocent men who talked
too much went to silence behind prison
walls and Huerta by the force of arms
and the impelling power OF fear I'M
posed his will upon 12.o00,o0O people.
He rejuired. he said, that mediation
had been offered
| But he declared, ''iet 40 mistake be
made. We must demand order. consti-
| tutional self government, and that the
right of sovereignty be placed in the
hands Of the people Of Mexico, under
safeguards that will promise liberty.

ment to the people of Mexico and as
sure our own future peace and secur-

Adjournment; late today.
In his testimony Lieut.. s. j. Lamme,
a physician of La Veta. Colo, who acted
as aid to Major Hammock during the

Major Hammock to Captain Edwin 5.

members of Troop A, arrived from

The orders were" the witness said,
ito advance down the tracks in the d.
rection of the tent colony to the pump
house. where the strikers were en-
trenched, and the Colorado and South
ern bridge. and smoke 'em out.
did you understand that order to
mean to set fire to the tents?' ASKED
Colonel Lingenfelter. member Of the
court.
Not at all" replied Lamme. Il
construed il to mean that he shouiu
advance with heavy fire and dislodge
the strikers"
He declared he heard Major HamrocK

at the rear Of the tent colony. NO
