POOR MATERIAL FOR SOLDIERS.

Some of our public continue reveal strange the requirements of military service Several cases have come light recently of judges suspendng jail sentences on condition that should join the army the governor of Arkansas has pardoned a penitentiary convict, sentenced to two-year oense against young girl condition that he shall join the National Guard

PAYING OUR DEBT TO FRANCE.

The most supendous charity in history has been un- dertaken. group of distinguished American citizens set raise fund of s1SOOOOOOO to support and educate French orphans. There are 100000 faherless French children already listed and there will be of thousands more.

THE NON-XOIER.

This republics chief menace" says Ira Landrith, Prohibition candidate for vice president, lis not the political activity of the vicious but the political indolence the virtuous Add the number good citizens who do the millions of ballots that indifferent integrity and egalized niquity would disappear any election day"
 It's admirable statement of a familiar truth which needs repitition.
 indifferent integrity" in politics in any thing else, is certainly integrity at all prac the vicious be fought and overcome; invites tagOnsm and conquest But the inactivity of the citizens who though passively viruous lack positive political opinions the desire to express them in action is ba ing They depended do definite duty. and they cheat and deceive the community by leaving it undone.
 They deserve less respect too than the who frankly participate politics for profit The latter at least dodgers hypocrites The evil they do is positive there's certain virtue positiveness of any kind.
 The non-voter is like Kiplings "Tomnson" the con. emptibe character who had held perfectly respectable opinions but who translated them action Saint Peter refused him to heaven because he had done positive good and Satan refused admit him to hell because he had done positive evil So he left dangling in the desolation between the two spirit worlds, punishment than hell itself until he back to earth and proceeded develop a real character.

CONFLICTING EVIDENCE.

 MT. Hughes said Grand Rapids Michigan, October IS: Our opponents say a for vote for war; criticism of the policy of the Administration necessarily in approval of war if a desire for .. am man of peace"
 Colonel Roosevelt said Louisville, Ky, the same day
 President Wilson's speeches models of adroit in suggestion and avoidance of downright statement But the other day Omaha he to have committed himself to that he willing to fight but was waiting something worth fighting for, for something which put all the corpuscles of his blood into shouting shape
 Tt would interesting know exactly what outrage on American citizens, the rights of humanity any where would make him the line between be ing willing fight and too proud to fight He certainly did regard treacherous murder of Boyd and Adar and this United States, something worth fighting for He did not even write a note about it.

Minstrel Show
Is Entertaining

When all is said and done, 1t
il the colored singer and come
dian that shines In a minstrel
show. This fact is proven by the
big success of The Dandy Dixie
Minstrels" featured on the new
bill that opened at tn eHippo-
drome theater yesterday. The
Africanders. as the company is
called, have done more with the
minstrel show than they did with
Southland" the musical comedy
and the result is continuous fun
and enjoyment for the Hippo
drome crowds.
The Hippodrome also has a
photoplay feature that will de-
light any audience. Flora Parker
de Haven was firm favorite in
the musical comedy field before
she went into pictures. Her pres
ent picture is The Madcap," a
comedy drama in five acts produc-
ed by the Red Feather company.
The photography is excellent as is
the cast that supports the star.
