JAMIESON ON STAND

Archibald Jamieson, also of Central News, told of the conference in Secre- tary Lansing's office on December 20. at which newspaper men were informed that a note would be ready at o'clock for release in morning papers. Jamie- son said he telephoned his office, say ing that the President and Secretary Lansing were particularly anxious that the matter be held in strict confidence because they wished no leak to get out that might affect the stock market.
 'On what did you base that state ment regarding the injuction against a leak to the stock market?" asked Rep Iresentative Harrison
 My impression is that Secretary Lansing said that, said Jamieson.
 Representative Lenroot questioned the witness to show that Secretary Lansing himself had testified he did no, have the stock market in mind when he talked to the newspapermen. Representative Henry asked Jamieson if he knew whether his confidential message regarding the note was so kept by his employer in New York.
 Jamieson said he had been so in- formed.

 "The Weaker Sext' the great Triangle Kay Bee production now showing at the Triangle, will not be cut. A majority ol the board of commissioners approve the play.
 At a private showing of this picture drama Tuesday night, a particular scene was offensive to the commissioner of public justice.

A REMARKABLE OCCURRENCE.

Under the Preferential Selection
Act more than million men were
summoned from peaceful civil occu-
pations and called to the colors last
week.
Disloyal organizations, few Junker
newspapers and reasonable lndividu-
ais Moderated vigorously against the
act and advocated forcible resistance;
yet the selection passed off without a
single riot there was not as, much
disturbance as usually takes place at
a presidential! election and 900 out
of every 100 summoned will willingly
respond.
This section demonstrated the
true spirit of America.
1t showed our people take the war
seriously.
1t was a complete and crushing
answer to those who have claimed the
country is divided and that the people
are not hack Of the government.
It set up a new milestone IN the
highway of nations.
No parallel circumstance ever oc~
CURED II the history Of the world.
The Republic is vindi&at@d.

on the shores of Rum river in the

he was.
"a Thomas cat, that fought at fifteen
pounds,
And other cats got up and slid when
this ERE cat came round"
If Bob was the same broth of boy
now as he was then, at the first bugle
blast of war he would have emitted
one explosive shout of 'Erin-go-
braugh"-and if necessary, would
have dumped his beloved "Union'
and all the rest of his belongings in
to the lake, and you could have played
marbles on his coat-tails as he plung-
ed for the nearest recruiting station
not ripining the sacrifices he had
made, by thanking his Maker at every
jump for the great opportunity OF
serving his country and if need be-
dying for men, and Mrs. Dunn, ever
the better man of the two, instead of
trying to hold him back would have
smiled proudly through her tears and
cried after his disappearing form
"Hop to it, Bob, old boy, come back
to me in honor or don't come back
at all, and she would be the one that
made the sacrifices and Bob would be
accepting privilege.
Praise be the Lord, God of Hosts,
our American army and navy of to-
day are made up of the Dunns, Cor
dons, and men of their class
forty years ago. They do not 60 at
their country's call reluctantly,
mourning sacrifice, but rejoicingly
singing:
''He has sounded forth the bugle, that
shall never call retreat,
He is sitting out the hearts of men
before His Judgment seat.
Be swift my soul to answer, be JUDI
LIANT my feet. GLORY, GLORY,
HALLELUJAUH."
Once more we retiterate. 1t is
those that send that make the great,
soul-hurting sacrifice.

CRITICISM.

We have been writing newspaper
articles, editorials and paragraphs
for many years. We have received
many Communications of our work anc
we have published some Of these from
time to time, to crafty our vanity
We have also received large number
of criticisms in the press, through the
mails and by word of mouth, and il
seems only fair that we make some OF
these public:
"They are too long"
"They are too short
"The contain too much politics."
There is not enough politics in
your stuff"
You deal too largely with national
questions"
They do not contain enough about
national Affair.""
They are written in too serious
strain"
"You try too hard to be humorous u
They are too religious"
"Your illusions are sacriligous."
TOO much stress is laid on NOR
atty"
Some Of your screeds are in
decent"
You take too much pains to be
accurate
The truth is not in you
your writings hurt the paper in
which thsy >are published. They are
50 bum l never read them"

The following letter has been re-
ceived in Washington from women
in North Dakota: "Tom Robertson

the draft on, account of being married.
He is of no use to me I am support

1t Might be Well.
1t might be we'll for those polite
ians who are so busy retiring Sena-
tor Nelson and naming his successor
to get Uncle Knute's views on retir-
ing before proceeding further.
A Big Difference.
There is big difference between
giving a man good send-off and Civ
ing him big kickoff.
Greatest Blessings.
Some Of the greatest blessings that
we have to be thankful for in this
life are the things we want and can't
get.
IF
If there had been one-half as much
work and study spent in making our
election laws simple and understand
able as there has been in making
them complicated and un-understand-
able the benefcient results would
have astounded the country.
No Reason.
Simply because man wants an Of
flee is no reason that it should be
given him.
Always Favored.
When spanking time comes the kid
that looks like it's mother never has
to take down it's pants.
All In the Same Class.
The only things man must pro-
cure license for before he can do
them, is, to keep dog, peddle, sell
cigars, run a circus, keep a saloon
and get married.
A Philosopher.
p A philosopher is man that is Sc
well satisfied with himself that he is
thoroughly convinced that the world is
satisfied with him also.
