CANDIDACY

Former Attorney General Monnett has declared HIM
sell = candidate for vice president at the Ohio primaries
in uppositicn to the policies and the candidacy tor pres1-
DEM of Mr.. Wilson. This makes the situation a very
curious one, inasmuch as there is as yet no other candl-
dat fer the democratic presidential nomination in the
Ohio primaries and no opposition to Wilson's renomlna-
lion Monnett is not running for president, and Wilson
is net running for vice president, but for president.
Ii is not impossible that both Wilson and Monnett
will be successful in the Ohio primaries. The delegates
% the democratic national convention may be instructed
TOR both men. They would then be obligated to vote tor
Nilsson lor president and Monnett for vice president, who
is running on a platform in opposition to the candidacy
of Wilson. 1t may come out all right, but these %presiden-
:al primaries are certainly wonderfully made and new
complications constantly appear.

HOBOS WELCOME

Congressman London, the socialist member iron.
New York, is at least consistent. lie has voted against
all army measures and made it perfectly clear that II ne
had his way the United States would be left absolutely
defenseless, an easy prey to any power that might see
fit to conquer and despoil. That is Mr.. London view
of the fitness of things, and he has the glorious right to
cherish it. However, we are blessed, indeed, that we
have not enough like him in congress to deliver us bound
to those who would rob and enslave us. thoughtful
citizens may well be careful how they commit their at
fairs to the keeping of those SO mentally deficient. The
millennium has not yet arrived and it behooves us nightly
to keep the smoke house locked and the shot gun loaded
Mr.. London and his popeyed associates, however, would
throw both lock and gun in the mill pond, open wide
the door, and above it nail a sign reading "Hobos Wei
come"

Japan MAKING Hay

1t is said there are 5000 loaded cars in and around
Seattle, and more of them in and around Vancouver.
They are loaded with freights destined for Russia via
Nladivostok. Much of the material has been diverted
from eastern railroads because they are already jammed
full. Cotton, wire and knock-down cars are said to be
the principal items. The freight carriers of the Pacific
are busy and not able to handle the traffic. The japanese
companies are making plenty of money now, and so are
the Americans, what is left of them. Japan has prospered
out of the war and it is the only nation in the world that
has been lowering its public Indebtedness, reducing it by
some twenty-seven millions during the past year.
Japan is making hay while the sun goes on shining,
and maybe some time after dark our congress will wake
up and explain from the gloom why this great nation
still has no merchant marine.

MIR. Bryan isn't saying much about disarming right
now. And, by the way, if Mr.. Bryan's brand of states
manship had prevailed when our present inefficient force
was provided for, we wouldn't have had enough troops
under arms to have even guarded themselves. We
couldn't have risked our "army" within a thousand miles
of the border. This country has many things to be
thankful for, but chief among all these was its deliver
ance from Bryan.

Baron Ishii, speaking to an American delegation in
Japan, said that in the past "a certain European power
had tried to embroil the United States and Japan, to
serve its own aspirations for dominance But that GER

and America ought to be able to adjust their differences
The Japanese statesman did not name the certain power,
but one can guess which one it is.

TESTING OUR MILITARY ARM

This little expedition into Mexico should be of value
to us in another way than in merely putting an end to
the vicious forays over our border by the bandits OF that
land of outlaws. 1t will give our soldiers a little expert
ence-a much needed eXperience-ln warfare and should
be made to serve as a school for officers. If the trouble
develops to the proportions that most people believe it
will develop. it will be invaluable to our army as a test OF
its points of strength and weakness. 1t will teach the
people of the country how efficient or inefficient their
fighting arm is, and what will be needed to equip it for
a contest with a real enemy. That may be a somewhat
cold -blooded way of looking at the matter, but this is a
cold-blooded age and it behooves us to be prepared for
any emergency that this cold-blooded era may bring. No
man can say that next month may not find us at war
with a genuine world power.

The rooms arc crowded and the work
is hampered. The building cannot be
enlarged save at great expense to the
owner, who may not wish to add to his
investment on the uncertain tenure OF
a public Office, which may some day be
sent into q aforementioned house of
its own. So one Of the branches Of the
department is now looking for home
outside.
The Department Of Justice, another
of those originally slated for accommo-
dation on the five-square site, is now
being fitted with a new Temporary
home by private enterprise. Some doubt
is already expressed whether it will be
big enough at the time of the transfer
from the widely scattered Offices in
which the legal branch of the govern
ment does its work under heavy handi-
cap. -
The State Department is still partly
housed in the tri-department building,
which was outgrown by the tenants al
most as soon as it was occupied. And
the government is collecting rents from
the tenants of the fve-square site which
do not begin to compensate for the
rents it is paying and is soon to pay
for inadequate quarters for the offices
which should be housed on this land.
