Get Now i'm Lansing?

When the legislature meets next Jan

OF organized labor will be on the side-lines
to advocate measures designed for the
improvement of the condition of working
men and women of Michigan.

Two More Big Victories
Are Headed Our Way As
Result of Prohibition

By-products often become as valuable
as the article itself and the by-pro1uc,.
of prohibition are Of this nature
But they have been fairly well thresh-
ed out in these columns and we wish "a
call attention TO two things Of politica.
Importance, by which the city and state
are going TO be benefited thru this great
reform.
First and foremost, altho the city Of
Detroit has not succeeded in smashing
the machine Of the politicians which
turns out its grist, according to its pre-
else mechanism, determined by the
bosses, we believe that the machine will
eventually smash itself
The great lubricant of its system has
been almost completely taken away.
Its cogs and wheels, kept moist by the
saloon. will become clogged and rough.
A weakness viii become manifest in
some of its members and sooner or later
it will be doomed to disintegration.
For chain is as strong as its weakest
link, and machine built up on graft,
special privileges, personal appointments
and the rest of it, with the lubricating
fluid Of the liquor traffic gone, has very
weak links indeed.
This is no news to the reelected admin
istration.
II understood il well enough, sowed its
literature broadcast over the city and
sent its henchmen to guard" the polls.
All this is good and already We are
casting our eyes two years ahead when
the machine will go down thru its own
incapacity and rust.
But this is not all.
When the women Of Michigan four
years ago managed, after strenuous ef-
forts to submit TO the voters the amend
ment asking for equal suffrage, the
amendment was fairly won and for one
short day the wives, mothers and daugh-
ters of this state We're Jubilant
Then came a frost; chilling frost.
A charge of some vague dishonesty
was trumped up and a recount demanded
Who brought the charge?
Who demanded the recount?
No other than the liquor interests Of
the state Who had been caught mapping
and were beaten thru their negligence.
+, Was suffrage triumphant the following
spring?
No. A huge sum Of money had been
collected and every city, town and village
in Michigan had become partakers, in
some form or other, of the tainted spoils.
Some prehistoric souls who have come
down thru the ages untouched BY prog
ress, believe honestly that God did not
intend women to vote and that this simple
act will disrupt the American home and
send the children hungry into the streets
The average American citizen. divorced
from the liquor interests. is complacent
however, if not eager, and sees, wher
he troubles to turn his eyes, that tn,
twelve western suffrage states are run
ming on the same schedule as in forme
times.

The Blatherskite
BY Or. FRANK CRANE
Copyright. 1915. by Frank Crane)


1t is well for people to know its enc
mics We in the United States have
amongst US certain enemies. They are
working might and main to bring calam-
ity. They are mischief makers pure and
simple.
Besides. they are blatherskites of the
most penicious stripe.
They are those who are doing what
they can to get us into a quarrel with
other nations
At present there are four varieties
those who would embroil us with CD
Germany, (2) England 60 Mexico, and
60 Japan
With fifth variety consisting Of those
who would like 70 get US into trouble
generally with any nation
The causes Of all wars AZ bottom are
the same. They are trucuIence. touchi-
ness brag. boasting. violent language.
jingoiSm. and the other qualities Of the
bully and bravo
The opposite Of the bully is the gentle
man Whatever else may be said Of the
present occupant OF the presidential
chair. IT cannot be denied that for four
years. in critical time when all the
world seemed lapsIng into the crudities
ot >ayagery, he has conducted our inter-
national affairs upon the high plane OF
gentleman
The anti-German blatherskite would
have us plunge into the general war
against the central powers Of nlrope He
insists we should decide AZ once that the
Allies are wholly right and the Germanic
powers wholly wrong. that We should line
up with England and proceed to crush
Germany.
But the people Of the United States
believe no such thing on the contrary.
We believe that the cause Of the war was
the system of military preparedness Of
which all European nations were equally
guilty, and OF which war is the inevitable
outcome.
The ant-England bla,herskites we
nave always with us The cheapest,
commonest performance OF a certain
group is 10 twist the British lions tail
Fortunately the friendship OF England
and America has been so we'll cemented
during a hundred years Of intercourse
that these trouble makers offer little
more than amusement.
The anti--Mexican crowd is more sin
,ster Here We have n mixture Of greed,
race-hate and jingo-buncombe that has
already caused US much embarrassment.
and IS eager 70 grasp any opportunity to
cause more. Every friendly move Of the
administration has been attacked. con-
tested, and rdicued by these fustan
statesmen.
The anti-Japanese are perhaps the
most dangerou, of ALL Japan is farther
away and less understood than the other
countries. and henceforth 70 the pinch
beck patriot the most inviting field for
stirring up trouble The situation is
complicated by the most ignorant and
preJudiced form Of sand-lot race preJu-
dice on the western coast.
If war comes 10 u.s. or We 90 TO war, it
will be because some group of the bath-
rskite class has managed to stampede
The common sense and seli-COntrol OF the
American people.
The enemy OF the people, the breeder
Of war and It's infinite insanity, is the
eternal blatherskte from age to age
the same.

CONGRESS TO GET NEW BILL
FOR ENLARGED ARMY

Washington, Feb. 22.-One million
trained American soldiers in years,
including regulars, state militia and
reserves, was pretentious goal to-
ward which leaders in congress were

paredness program of senate and

General feeling is that Americans
must suffer consequences if they en-
bark on belligerent merchantmen car

TRACTION ENGINEERS FIND
LITTLE SENTIMENT FOR TUBES

After holding three public hearings
in the council chamber of the City
Hall, Chicago's new 100000 traction
commission has decided to hold fu-
ture public hearings and secret con-
ferences with persons interested in
improved transportation at the COM
missions headquarters, which will be
designated later.
At the public hearings only one or
two speakers even mentioned sub
ways, except in condemnation. State
street didn't even chirp. 1t allowed
speaker after speaker to come before
the three experts who are going to
give the public better transportation
and condemn the Marshall Field in
terests, the traction trust and the rest
of State street as being responsible
for the rotten service Chicago now
has.
The engineers listened and at the
conclusion. of the last meeting told a
Day Book reporter that they thought
public sentiment of Chicago was de-
cidedly against subways. However,
they are going to hear more speakers
when they open their headquarters.

AS TO BLOUSES.

Some of the newest lingerie ones de
signed for spring wearing are of sheer.
fine voiles or soft batistes In snowy
white. Most all have tucks. some
times combined with hemstitching,
sometimes with the frilly rufiies that
are so feminine and pretty. These are
not too expensive, have long sleeves
and usually low collars. But for those
who want them some have collars to
be worn high or low.
