MILTON DECORATES
GRAVES OF SOLDIERS
FOLLOWING SPEECH

MILTON, Ind, June decoration
Day was observed at Milton, Monday
afternoon, the exercises being held at
the Boosters club hall. The stage
was beautifully decorated, the back
ground being formed with flags and
bunting while the foreground was
elaborately decorated with the Stars
and Stripes and potted plants.
The stage was occupied by the
speaker, the Rev. Walter Jerge, who
gave the opening prayer, the Milton
band and other officers of the day.
After several numbers given by the
band and the invocation, Mrs. Homer
Williams of Butte, Montana, gave
solo "The Grand Old Flag with
piano accompaniment by Miss Lora
Beeson and drum and bells by Olin
Davis. The Rev. Walter Jerge then
introduced the speaker, the Rev. l.. E..
Brown, who gave a very able and elo-
quent address. He said in part:
AS long as we celebrate Memorial
Day we keep in remembrance the men
who gave their lives and health for
the salvation of The Grand Old Flag
and the United Country. England has

the address the assemblage marched
TO the Westside cemetery where a
Maltese Cross was erected many
years ago, on which are written the
names of the dead who fell on the
field of battle and lie on Southern
Soil The procession was headed by
Ian1pc Williams Co1Or booror fol
lowed by the band. They were fol
lowed by children bearing wreaths for
the Cross after which came long
line of autos, and other conveyances
carrying Old Soldiers.
A committee was detailed for each
of the cemeteries at Doddridge chapel,
Franklin churchyard and Valley
Grove. The Friends cemetery was
visited on Sunday. At Westside cem-
etery the services were concluded by
beautiful eulogy by the Rev. F. c.
Mccormick and the benediction pro-
nounced by the Rev. F.. NJ Westhafer.

Democratic Doctors Disagree,

About 1916 the doctors-as doctors
will-disagree. 1t was only the other
day The Star quoted Dr. Watterson
to the effect that if the times did
not improve, and were as bad next
year as now, any old party on any
platform under any old leader could
drive the democracy from power. OF
course, DR.. Watterson thinks the
times will improve. and hopes to see
the democracy under Mr.. Wilson
continued in control
But now comes DR.. Lewis-the
senator from Illinois-and expresses
the opinion that the republicans have
no case now, and will have none next
year, and that the democracy under
Mr.. Wilson will again triumph, no
matter what next years condition
may be. This is the way he puts 1t
in an interview:
II prophesy if times are good, the
administration will get the credit and
Mr.. Wilson will be reelected. If
times are bad as a result of the war
and conditions of the war continue
TO such degree as will make times

The National Emblem.

The patriotic societies interested
in the enactment of a measure to
prevent the dissertation of the ma
tional flag are not discouraged by
their failure to secure action in the
Sixty-third Congress, but are deter
mined to continue their efforts at the
next session They should succeed in
getting Congress to pass the bill they
favor, which prohibits the use OF the
flag for profit or its display with
lettering. The banner OF the nation
should be held sacred from all pro-
fame and commercial uses. 1t should
be the emblem of the republic, and
not that of business, trade, enter
tainment enterprise or catch-penny
scheme. True patriotism demands
that the flag should stand solely and
always for the united people of the
country. so that its display may for
ever signify the government and the
nation, and should have no other
meaning. There is no sound basis
for opposition to the bill which
would by prohibitions and penalties
put an end to commercial desecra-
ton of the banner.

The Mexican Situation.

For two years President Wilson
has so managed as to keep the
United States out OF a war of Mexi-
can Intervention, though last spring
the actual clash seemed to have been
precipitated at Vera Cruz. Once
more the situation approaches a
crisis. Mexico City is menaced with
anarchy, foreign residents are in
peril. the diplomatic representatives
there are prepared for departure and
negotiations are in progress to effect
a truce in the hostilities to permit
the restoration of order at the capi-
tai. Apparently there is such a deep
rooted jealousy among the various
Mexican leaders, such unfathomable
intrigue and far-spreading bad faith,
that little or no reliance can be
placed in any pledges that may be
given for the adoption of a program
that will insure security for foreign
interests. Some form OF interna-
tional movement for intervention to
restore order may quickly become
necessary, unless Mexico is to be
abandoned to the self-destroying
forces now rending that unhappy
country.

The Joint Committee.

\ joint committee OF three sena-
tors and three representatives will
sit in September to consider the
question OF the fiscal relations be-
tween the federal government and
the District OF Columbia, under the
terms Of the lately enacted District
appropriation bill The Vice Presi-
dent and the Speaker have after
careful consideration named Sena-
tors Chiffon. Salisbury and Works
and Representative Rainey, Gard
and Cooper for this important duty.
These legislators are broad-minded.
capable men, and have been named
with especial regard for their unpre-
JUDGED attitude toward the District.
None has had directly to do with the
writing OF District appropriation bills
and consequently none is committed
to any policy affecting the fiscal rela-
tons between the District and the
federal government.
The District is profoundly graft
fed at the appointment of SO capa-
BILE a commission to consider the vi
tally important issue OF the wisdom
and justice and necessity OF contin-
ued federal contributions to National
Capital maintenance on the half-and-
half basis. Confident that its case,
if fully presented. will appeal to the
Judgment OF fair-minded men. it is
we'll pleased to have the question re-
ferred to this tribunal.
Not for at least six months will
the joint committee begin its ses-
sions. This gives the District time
to prepare its case for presentation.
By September the six legislators will
have rested from the strain OF the
almost continuous sessions of the
past two years and hall and will
be in form for thorough hearing OF
every aspect OF the situation. The
District welcomes the opportunity
that is thus afforded to meet with
facts and figures the unfounded al
legations that have been made
against it during the past few years,
and especially as the joint commit
tee is constituted of men of such abil-
ity and open-mindedness as those
who have been designated by the
two presiding officers OF Congress.

fear of war-the country will con-
tinue President Wilson, on the
ground that having through such
peril maintained peace, 1t is wiser
and better for the nation to continue

some small commercial benefits. than

DR.. Watterson is an older practi-
toner than DR.. Lewis. He knows
the pharmacopoeia by heart, has at
tended the democracy in some of its
worst Spells and as a diagnosti-
clan, so to say, has much reputation.
He is not specialist, and does not
throw a patient into fits because OF
any superior knowledge of that COM
plant. His knowledge in his pro-
fession embraces everything between
science and "yarbs.'
In this case the Kentucky medico
is more persuasive than his brother
OF Illinois. If the democracy next
year, after four years OF power. is
in a bad way, and able to plead at
best only that the republican party
if called back would be in worse
way and unable to remedy ills, it will
be likely, as Dr. Watterson predicts.
to walk the plank. The voters will
be in no humor-they never arc III
humor-for nice distinctions. All
they will consider is that they arc in
bad way, and what they will de-
sire is change. and they will order
it at the polls.

The Federal Trade Commission.

The President has taken the step
expected A recess commission has
been issued to George Rublee, and
he will qualify at once as member
OF the federal trade tribunal.
Mr.. Rublee's appointment was not
rejected by the Senate, but failed of
confirmation because of objection
made by one OF the senators from
the state to which the appointee was
accredited In fact, there is an opin
ion that one of the reasons operat-
ing in the making OF the appoint
ment was personal to that senator.
Mr.. Gallinger had been prominent in
the flibuster against the ship bill,
and Mr.. Rub1ee had been prominent
in the effort made last year to de-
feat the senator for reelection.
What the Senate when it recon-
venes will do about the matter is 4
question. 1t had too little time to
consider the Presidents selections
when they were sent in. He had
taken months in making them. and
was allowing it only few days. In
measure they were disappointing to
the Senate. But four out of the FIVE
were confirmed, largely out of cour-
tesy to the President.
This commission would have a CO.
1ossal job on its hands even if univer-
sal peace prevailed, and American
business conditions were normal Its
powers are not only wide. but new.
1t is charged with stalking out a
course in an uncharted field. All
business, big and little, is concerned
about its operations.
But conditions are abnormal The
most experienced business men sur
vey the scene with apprehension.
The waste in Europe is almost past
belief. and growing. How long it
will continue no man may say. But
while it does continue it will be idle
for US to calculate with anything like
certainty about our affairs.
Here, then, is tribunal OF untried
men setting out upon quest Hide
fined and most difficult, with every
thing topsy-turvy and everybody
nervous. The natural hope is that it
may proceed slowly and with the ut
most caution. Old landmarks have
disappeared. New ones may be but
for day. All the national legisla-
ton of the past two years may have
next twelve months, not to mention
possible complications growing out
OF possible spread of the war.

The Trailer Car.

The public utilities commission has
granted a reprieve for the trailer
car, so to speak. by authorizing the
use of supplementary cars of this
type without the employment of
separate conductors, giving from
now until the first of July for ex-
pertinent as to their safety and ef-
fectiveness. The trailer is, generally
speaking, a nuisance and source of
danger, especially when it has no
conductor. In fact, any car that has
a conductor collecting fares after the
passengers have entered and taken
their seats, or straps, or places with

Zone-Fares and "JitneYs.'

Perhaps while waiting for a de-
cision on the pending questions re-
garding official classification and
regulation the local "jitney bus" pro-
motors may prohtably consider the
advisability of adopting the zone
fare system. In European cities the
trackless public vehicle prospers be-
cause it charges proportioned rate,
a small fare for short haul and a
larger fare for longer ride. There
are no local disadvantages to operate
against such a mode, and it might
prove the particular inducement to
bring public patronage. 1t is at least
worth contemplating.

out straps, is more or less of a bur-
den upon the public.
The only reason for permitting the
use of trailers is in case it is impos-
sible to run enough single cars to
carry the traffic. That is declared by
the railroad companies to be impos-
sible, especially at the rush hours.
Until some readjustment can be eff
fected to divert the present conges-
ton Of traffic at certain places where
the Roadway of the cars is reduced it
may be desirable to increase the size
of the cars, in effect, by allowing
the use of trailers, though whether
they should be operated without
conductors is matter of grave con-
sideration, to be determined after
watching the effect OF the present
order until the first of July.
