Thought Insane Because OF Violent
Love Making.

Aberdeen, May A deputy sher-
iff has gone to Hecla in response to
an S. @. 5. call from residents of
that town who think Charles Phillips
a young man residing there, is in
sane. 1t is stated Phillips has been
showing persistent and decidedly un-
welcome attentions TO a young Wom-
an Of that place, and he also shows
a violent distaste for the smell of to-
bacco. When thwarted by his lady
love, or brought into contact with his
pet aversion, he is accused of using
extremely violent language. So the
neighbors have concluded the man is
insane, both because Of the violence
of his love making and his hatred
for the filthy weed.

SOME REMEDY MUST BE
FOUND

The impending railway strike has
brought the people Of the United
States face to face with q catastrophe
of gigantic proportions. Such strike
cannot take place without tremendous
loss to railway wage earners, to rail-
way investors. and most of all to the
general public.
The freight and passenger service
of the railways has come to be "a mat
ter of very vital necessity not only
to the business interests of the ma
ton but also to its domestic life.
We have been running along COM
fortably with the assurance that this
service would not be interrupted, for
when suddenly for no better reason
than that the railway managers and
the union labor leaders are unable to
agree upon the terms and conditions
of employment, we are confronted
with the practical certainty that rail
way service will cease for an indefi-
mite period.
Sued :. condition marks a break
down in our industrial system of
most serious import. Regardless OF
the merits of the controversy that
has caused this controversy, and re
gardless of its political aspects, the
condition is one that calls for rad
ical remedy.
The uninterrupted maintenance oil
railway communications in this coun-
try is a national necessity, and it Is
the supreme duty of government, mol
only to prevent this strike if possible
or to bring it to an end with the least
possible delay and loss, but also to
prevent the recurrence in future OF
such a grave menace to the prosper
ity, the comfort, the safety, and the
lives of the people Of the United
Statcs.-Pueblo Chieftain.

In the same week in which Scrre-
tary Daniels sent out his defence OF
the administration, pointing to the
naval appropriations as the proof that
the Democrats had not neglected ma
tional defence, another Wilson sup
porter sent out a circular letter de
signed to defend the Wilson admin
istration from the charge that it had
abandoned the policy of pacificism
and had come under the sway of the
militarists.
1t is true, says this latest apollo
gist, that the Democrats have appro-
priated an immense sum for the navy
but the appropriation bill contains a
provision putting it into the power of
the president to suspend or withhold
the spending of this money, so that
the appropriation is, in effect, mere
ly a grant of discretionary power to
the president to spend this money if
he wishes to do so.
An American of intelligence does
not need to be told that the presi-
dent can not run with the pacifist
hares and hunt with the prepared
ness hounds in any such way as this,
unless he is devoid of political integ
rity. Yet that is what he is said to
be doing by two prominent Democrat
ic authorities.
The Chieftain prefers the more
complimentary view that the Wilson
administration is not devoted either
to policy of consistent preparedness
or to a policy OF genuine and courag
eous pacificism. The main purpose
of the naval appropriation is not to
secure strong navy, but to give
Democratic orators something to
which they can "point with pride, .
after four vars Of wanton neglect
while at the same time a hole has
been left in the bill big enough for
the whole hosts of pacificism to pass
thru to the elysian fields Of dream
land beyond.-Pueblo Chieftain.
