EDITORIAL COMMENT

The national prohibition con.
vention, held in St. Paul last week,
nominated Mr.. j. Frank Hanly,
former governor of Indiana, as
their candidate for president, DR..
Ira D. Landrith, of Nashville,
Tenn, as vice.president. The
effort to form coalition with the
Progressive party failed as the ant.
lers of the moose didn't seem to
appear becoming on the camel.
Ex.Gov. 6ulzer, of New York, was
also candidate, and appealed to
the convention to nominate him on
the ground that the American par.
ty, the Anti Catholic organization,
would endorse bis nomination, and
he would thus get two million
votes. To the credit of the prohi-
bition party this effort to unite
church and state was turned do wn.

England has made up a list OF
about eighty firms in this country
that nave been placed on the black
list and which they refuse to pat.
ronize in their commercial dealings.
The reason assigned is that these
firms are either operated by Ger.
mans or by German sympathisers,
and that the profits of the firms go
to Germany. There may be some
precedents that would justify a
discrimination against company
operated in this country by Ger.
man citizens, but this country can
not afford to sanction any dis
crimination again st loyal Americ.

During the past ten days every
freight train from Sioux City has
been loaded with harvest hands,
but until Monday they have not
attempted to monopolize the pas.
senger trains. The train Monday
was covered on top of the coaches,
on the blind baggage and the ten.
der. The train crew was powerless
to handle them, although they we're
a menace to the travelling pubic.
There we're organizers in the bunch
who made the rounds of the train
at each station and demanded that
every man identify himself with
the l. W. VS., or get off the train.
It is about time that the state au-
thorities should take hand and
insure the safety of ordinary travel.
ers. If such band of toughs are
to continue to monopolize railroad
traffic it looks as though the SER
vices of our National Guard will
be needed more at home than thew
are on the Mexican border.

seIf.LIshtino smudse Pot.

BY the invention of simple thermo
static controlling device, Los An
geles man has developed an ingenious
apparatus for rendering the smudge
pots used by orchardists self-operat-
ing, says Popular Mechanics. The ap-
pliance, which may be fitted to any
standard type of pot, is regulated by a
small copper rod. When the atmos-
pheric temperature drops to prede-
termined point the contraction OF the
rod is sufficiently great to release a
cup containing an acid. The liquid is
poured into small chamber provided
in the smudge pot. This holds a
chemical substance which burns upon
the addition of the acid, producing a
flame that ignites the crude oil used
in the pot. The thermostat may be
adjusted so as to release the acid
when the temperature falls to any spe-
cific degree. With this apparatus in
use, an orchard may be protected from
frost without personal attention being
given II. u

The departure of the German
submarine Deutschland, laden with
q cargo of merchandise is likely to
lead to some more diplomatic com.
plications. This government has
declared this submarine to be sim.
ply q merchant vessel; and under
international rules it cannot be
attacked without warning. II
has been customary to treat all
submarines as war vessels. It is
impossible to tell whether q sub.

warning what would be the con.

the third copy is filed with the dist

it appears that the official election of

CONSIDERED AND

REJECTED
(By Associated Press.)

NEW ORLEANS, Nov. 16.-Pro-
posed amendments to the constitution
of the National association of pro-
fessional baseball leagues were con-
sidered at the annual meeting here.
Among the amendments were pro-
posals to reduce the membership of
the national board from nine to five,
providing for representation by minor
leagues, re-classification of leagues
and other matters.
The minor league clubs at the
afternoon session voted unanimously
to table four demands of the base
ball players fraternity. The demands
we're as follows: Elimination of al
legged contracts permitting clubs to
suspend injured players; giving
players the right to sign new con-
tracts Immediately after their un-
conditional release; allowance to
minor league players of travelling ex-
penses from their home clubs to the
clubs city or its spring training
camp; and changes in the procedure
of the national board in players
claims cases, so as to give the fra
tenity notice of the clubs defense
and opportunity to reply.
