The bayOnet has returned to it's own
rs one of the most destructive of all
weapons ever devised. It's thrust is
sdeadlter than the cut Of the sword or
the blow OF the axe or club. And the
moral effect of 1t is incomparably
greater. The defense against a blow is
instructive and effective-the arm up

is no natural defense against the
thrust, and, worse still. it comes
.sickeningly at the seat Of human cour-
age. the pit OF the stomach. In

great deal OF routine work with
practically no exertion. Once the,

Washington Britain's pre-
liminary reply to the American note
of protest concerning neutral com
merce. while gratifying in the con-
cessions it makes, has in many re-
spects failed to satisfy the United
States government
Officials confidently hope that the
second and complete answer from
England will give the specific inform
alton requested by the United States
and clear up the uncertainties which,
according to the Washington govern
ment, surrounds the commerce of
neutrals.
This disposition on the part of the
Washington administration was re-
vealed in high official quarters Mon
day although there was no formal
comment.
when the British ambassador
called on Secretary Bryan to inform
him that the British supplementary
note would not be forthcoming for sew
eral days, the secretary told him that
the American government would'make
no comment until the note arrived.

amendment to the federal constitution
to enfranchise women.
The vote, the second in the history
of Congress on the woman suffrage
issue, came at the close of a day OF
long prepared for oratory, during
which many of the speakers, includ-
ing Representative Taylor of Colo

evidence of approval or disapproval
by packed galleries. The question
was before the House ON the MondelI

amendment providing that the right of

A two-thirds affirmative vote was
necessary to pass the resolution; it
was defeated by majority of thirty.
Party lines were not strictly drawn
in the fight, though Democratic Lead

his party that suffrage is state is
sue. strongly opposed the resolution,
while Republican Leader Mann was
one of the chief speakers for the suf-
fragists.
