ADJUSTMENTS AT
LOCAL HOUSES
MU RAY

There was a mere slip OF lad last
night who received one of the great
est expressions of appreciation ever
demonstrated by Murray audience.
He played most any kind OF musical
instrument and was equally proficient
on all. Long after the curtain had
been rung down, the vigorous ap-
plause insisted that the little star of
the Gallerini four give just one more
number. Skipper, Kennedy and Reeves
put over a singing act intermingled
with not little mirth. Johnnie Small
and the Small sisters tripped and sang
with youthful abandon. The bill was
introduced by Noble and Brooks and
Darto and RialtO.

WHERE G. O. P. FOOZLES.

While certain Republicans are shouting themselves hoarse in their
demand for a great army and denouncng the Democrats in general
and the president in particular for failure to uphold the dignity Of the
country" the great mass of the Republicans sin the house, aided by
som thirty Democrats, emphatcalLy reject the proposition for a regu-
lar army of 100000 men.
And the same day President Wilson, the mi who is blamed by
the Republican orators for failure to be sufficiently aggressive in nS
preparedness tells the antimiitarist delegates who come to him to
protest against his campaign for national defense, that he Cal see NJ
danger of miitarism is al army of a quarter OF a million.
The question arises, who really represents the Republicans of the
nation? are we to accept the loose and loud-mouthed declarations Of
politicians a to the sentiment of the Republican party, or shall re not
rather take the vote of the Republicans of the house a. truly showing
the Republican views?
If the country is backward in military preparedness low the blame
must rest n those who for nearly half a century have controlled the
affairs of the nation.
If we fail to meet present conditions, which admittedly are much
changed from those of five years ago, the blame must be placed on the
shoulders OF those who have refused to join with the president in his
attempt to strengthen the nation against the possible storms of the
lear future.
For those who, like Bryan and Ford and thousands of Others, sim
cerely believe there is II o necessity of military o naval preparedness,
we have all respect, although w e may OF agree with them; but those
who shout condemnation OF the president for neglect OF the nation
defenses and then vote against preparedness deserve the contempt Of
the American people.
The president, and not the Republicans is sincere in his deermi-
nation to place the country o n a safe and military foundation

& THE POLITICAL CRIME OF MANN.

II is no surprise that muuerings are being heard in Republican cir
Giles, especially in the east, against MIR. Manns leadership of the Repub-
Icans in the house OF representatives. The underlying JUS OF dis
satisfaction is doubtless Mr. NEanns antagonism to the leadership of
Senator Ladge o the issues relating to Germanys submarine warfare
An antagonsm which broke the Republican party in w on the armed
merchantmen question and more recently has disclosed a party split in
relation to the presidents latest demand o Germany.
But, more specifically perhaps dissatisfaction with Mr.. Mann
arises o account of the personal insult levied att the president by the
minority leader in publicly commenting on the presidents recent mes
sage to congress. He "a not content to charge the president with
using the submarine issue to promote his w reelection. Political
aspersons of that character are easily endured. Indeed, they are to
be expected.
There is one bunder' in American politics, however, which becomes
a polical. crime, in the party sense, if it is made sufficiently conspicu-
ous and that is dragging in cheap and vulgar abuse OF a mans religion.
The Presbyterian church is n of the influential sects in America and,
in denouncing the president of the United States as a "bue-nosed
Presbyterian" Mr. Mann insulted more than two million communi-
cants Of that religious body.
Mr.. Wilson and political friends may view the incident with n o
little satisfaction: excoriaton of the president could hardly be car
rid too far, if nothing but the political effect ell to be considered.
But Mr.. Mann's sharp tongue is stabbing the Republican party more
than it is the president. Mr.. Cannon "a infinitely o be preferred to
his uccesso as leader of his party, under such conditions as o pre-
vail-Springfield Republican.

print paper going up at one jump from
$53 to $50 a ton, other kinds of paper
going up even more than that, and
the merchants advertising very little,
it is absolutely necessary to reduce
