Must Have a Place in School

(From the Chicago Defender)
Our naval training camp has every
nationality under the sun. AS a red
flag to flout into the face of the bull.
we have Cinnamon out there, the
Filipino out there, the Greek out there,
the Hebrew out there, the Italian out
there, and God himself only knows
what else out there, but we do know
that if we are anywhere near there
we are near the bathroom with a mon
and broom. Space must be made for
the boy of the Colored race in the
school for which we are paying taxes.

The Shame Of Illinois.

(FT0m the Chicago Tribune.)
The riot at East St. Louis is one of
the worst blots on the good name of
an American community in our whole
history. Illinois must bow her head
in shame before this disgrace. We
have no excuse. There can be no ex-
cuse for such a break down of the
most primitive safeguards of civil gov
eminent, for such betrayal of the first
duty of ordered society.

NEITHER OLD PARTY HAS
CONTROL OF CONGRESS
Independents to Determine Which
Side VIII Control House
Organization.

Revised figures on returns Of the
last election show definitely that
neither Democrats nor Republicans
will have majority Of the next
house necessary to elect speaker,
and that q few Independents will de-
termine which side will control the
Organization.
Conceding seats to candidates in
possession of certificates of election,
because they are certain to partici-
pate in the organization of the

Republicans, 214; Democrats, 213:
independents, 2; Progressives, 2;

A majority is 218; hence, should
either Democrats or Republicans win
both Of the contests, they still would
be short of a majority.

Today is the anniversary of one OF
the famous battles of the second war
with Great Britain, the memorable
battle of New Orleans when Gen.
Jackson on the 9Th of January, 1915,
vanquished Gen, Pakenham in a half
hours contest in which the enemy
lost $500 of their number in wound
ed and slain while the American loss
was eight killed and 10 wounded.
Never in the history of the world
was battle fought with so great a
disparity Of loss.
The Light & Power company have
prepared a form of trust deed en-
bodying the consideration upon
which they will extend their electric
railway system to Tumwater and op-
crate a first-class service between
the two cities. A. A. Phillips is
made the trustee to hold such dona-
tons of land as may be made until
the conditions are fully complied
with.
About 500 people assembled at

BULL MOOSE.0LO
GUARD FIGHT IS ON
PARTY FIGHT REVIVED IN sen.
ATE TO GUST FORMER
LEADERS.

The old war in the United States
senate between the old guard and the
progressives for control of the Re-
publican party has broken out again
in an intensity rivalling the vio-
lence of the 1912 revolution, says R.
B. Smith, staff correspondent of tho
International News Service.
The armed truce of the last two
years is ended. Each side is blaming
the other for the Republican defeat
in November and the whir of the
grindstone sharpening the avenging
cutlasses for an open declaration of
war is being heard in both camps.
To Break Old Guard.
The progressive group in the SEN
ate is determined that the old guard
leadership. the Gallinger-Smoot-
Penrose triumvirate, must 60. The
old guard is equally determined Ito
stay. The progressive clique showed
it's temper the other day when it
supported Senator Moses E. Clapp of
Minnesota for president pro tenn
against Senator Gallinger, the regu-
lar Republican leader.
This first progressive mutiny was
led by Senator LaFollette of Wiscon-
sin. He was joined by Senators
Borah of Idaho, Kenyon and Cum
Minis of Iowa and Morris of Nebras-
ka. They hadn't been consulted by
the old guard when certain minor
committee appointments were made
recently and the election of the pres
ident pro tenn gave them their first
opportunity for revenge.
The five mutineers are almost GER
tain to get the support of Senators
Poindexter of Washington and Gron-
ma of North Dakota. In the next ses-
sion they will get new and power
| full ally in the person of Senator-elect
Hiram johnson of California.
The Progressive Dictum.
This is the progressive senator's
platform. as given to the Interna-
tional News Service by one Of the re-
voting clique:
Hughes defeat was largely due
to irreconciliable progressives, who
refused to vote the Republican ticket
because they feared it would put
control of the national government
back in the hands of the reactionaries
against whom the 1912 revolt was
directed. To win in 1920 the Re-
publican leadership must be recon-
structed.
1.-THE Republican party can never
expect to win back the progressive
West as long as it keeps the CALM
gers, Shoots and Penroses In power.
The voters of the West expressed
their aversion to this sort of leader
ship in November and they will con-
tinue to do so as long as such leader
ship is maintained.
1.-THE time to begin ousting the
old guard, which cost us the election.
Is now. The old guard must 60"
