Songs Of Different Tune.

The auntor Of "There'll Be a Hot
Time in Old Town Tonight" passed
away recently. That was the war song
par excellence Of the Spanish war, and
the lit Of it put pep into many sold
i:r who fought Tor Cuba Libre. Those
were the days when the United States
had the respect Of the world and we
had president Who vas not afraid to
stand steadfast for Righteousness.
The author Of Il didn't Raise My Boy
10 be Soldier still lives, l! is an
appropriate whine for the Administra-
ton now in control. The policy now
is dodge responsibilities, surrender
known rights, and bubble about words,
The navy is shorthanded, and the army
cannot secure recruits because the
leaders OF the party in power are et-
Terminate, vagarious and inspire con,

rolling up huge prophets from the sale

countries battling for a principle; more
Of us are feeling the pinch Of hunger
and the chill Of winter because prices
have gone TO LuciIerian heights. The
American people will have occasion
for tall amount OF thinking during
the next four years, and the result Of
their cognalions will give a pretty
good indication as 10 whether our
present political anemia is chronic or
acute.

Democratic Economies.

A striking, and what should be an
illuminating, situation is seen on near.
ing the end OF four years Of Democrat
ic administration at Washington and in
number Of states. In the great
Middle Western States Of Illinois and
Missouri. as well as at Washington,
Democrats came into executive office
as successors Of Republicans chosen
four years cashier. Mr.. Wilson was
iDaugurated standing on a platform,
adopted at Baltimore, in which alleged
Republican extravagance was denounc'
ed and the democratic party was
pledged TO such rigid economies and
J Jefsrsonian simplcities as would be
fit a Democratic government, and a
reduction in the number Of useless
ffices, the salaries Of which drain the
substance Of the people" At the be.
ginning Of last week Secretary McAdoo
Of the Department o! the Treasury
made public admission Of TACT he had
long tried 20 conceal in calling or
Congress TO make speedy provision
for raising S379,O73,O0O Of extraordi'
nary revenue needed TO meet a deficit
which the treasury will have 10 face in
less than year.
In Illinois, as at Washington, the
Democrats came into Office only
through Republican divisions. Their
{ platform was redundant Of promises tc
reduce the expense Of state govern
ment, and elcquen, in the anainmeD
OF the Republicans for alleged pro
figacy in the levying OF taxes TO raist
funds needed 10 meet extravagant ap
phopriation bills. The Republicans
now returning TO power in both tht
txocn,ive and legislative branches
find themselves confronted al ,ht
threshold OF their work With STATE
treasury empty.
n Missouri the fact OF deficiency
has long been known, and was tacitl.

No Publicity Desired.

Much opposition to the bill recently
debated in the House proposing 10 al
low the use OF school buildings in the
city OF Washington by community ior-
ums for the purpose Of discussing soci-
al and public questions appeared to be
based on the suspicion Of certain Dem
ocrats that subjects Of political
nature might be brought into the dis
cussions. Considering the dubious re-
cord Of the Democratic party ii is but
natural that its members should hesi'
tate in providing opportunity for free
expression OF the views Of the people
Of Washington, who have suffered
much in the way Of increased taxes and
cuttaiIed appropriations from D:mo'
cratic Congress-.

Condemned Cannon Not Given Away.

Fond Gu Lac, Wisconsin has inIoduc
ed bill providing for the donation by
the Secretary CT War TO that conmun'
ity Of four condemned brgnze or brass
cannon Tor the ornameniatiJn OF the
public park. This is one Of the little
jokes that Congressman occasionally
play en- their their trusting constituents
1t is well known to the initiated that
such bill when finally enacted into Law
mean absolutely nothing as they simply
authorize the Secretary in his disecre

Democrats Would Duplicate Appropriation

Another instance of the watchIullness
Of Hon. Jsmer R. Mann Of Illinois in
detecting Democratic schemes to in
sure success Of questionable legislation
occurred the other day when a bill, in
uoduced by DtmocIat, was reached
on the House Gale Ldar proposing to
establish fish cultural station Ia Cali

ed the iact that the same item had
been included in the omnibus fish

He called the matter 10 attention q

ought not TO take two chances. He
cannot ride 10 horses going in differen'

Getting Down to War Realities

Disilution is al work silently, buI
powerfully, in the nations fighting each
other. A third winter finds great
aamies in deadlock Of deep trenches,
but under a strain OF vigilance like
that Of an active campaign. This sit
ua;ion was not Ioreseen By army bureaus
before the war began, and must be
worked ont according TO circumstances
with all sides keyed up to the stress
OF immediate attack or defense. Here
nothing Of the anticipated orderly
marches in irresistable masses. The
enemy is in touch, but not in sight,
for field operations. On the sea also
the unexpected has happened. Sub
marines show a deadly efficiency un-
thought Of three years ago. They
come and 90 in the Mediterranean,
and cross and recross the atlantic.
The toll they have taken in shipping
is immense. So it happens that both
on land and sea the existing facts are
essentially different from those figured
on BY expert strategists, tacticians and
war boards. Adversaries have not
been walked over as imagined in ad
vance. Even turkey has been able 20
hold itslines in the main, and to de-
liver some telling defensive strokes.
The failure at Gallipoli was made Ger
tain when submarines, their presents
unknown, began to play havoc among
the entent battleships.
National debts among the combat
ants are piling up beyond precedent,
and there can be no intrenchmen,
against their huge increases while !he
war goes on. In air fight the small
machines have been considerable de-
veloped, but the large ones are dis
appointment in offensive movements.
They have sustained greater losses
than they inflicted. The shortage in
food is widely felt and may become
acute. AT first there were visions ol
rapid, unquestionable success. But
the results in general at this time are
indecisive. The clamor OF triumph'
to be won have faded. Chicken;
counted before hatched are conspic
uous by absence. The actual arrange
ment has no relation 10 the preauange
ment in cabinets and high military
Offices. Grim realty has taken tht
place Of Aattering suppositions. 1
has been said that war legislates. And
disillusion is one Of the methods BY
which it works. Globe Democrat.

admitted by the state administration
in its appropriation Of state schoo
funds to pay other expenses, a ,spol'
iation scheme which it was necessary
to appeal to the courts to prevent.
The real extent of the deficiency is
now indicated IN the auditors report
to Nj Gradner, which, however, he
states 10 be incomplete in setting out
all outstanding liabilities. Unpaid
state bills now exceed Sl,500,000.

The Legislatures First Duty.

The chlel task before the MIS-
souri Legislature, the one duty above
all others that conIronts it, is the re-
establishment Of the state upon a firm
financial basis. The eternal conflict
between parties, the almost eternal
conflict between the "wets" and the
"drys,' should not be permitted to
stand in the way OF the restoration Of
our credit and the adoption oI fair and
equitable measures to give the state a
sufficient income for the proper con
duct Of its business along enlightened
and advanced lines. The last Legis-
lature and the outgowing administration
have created an Indebtedness Of ap'
proximately S2,OO0,O00 above current
resources. 1t is useless now to hurl
examinations and recriminalions. The
facts are matters OF public knowledge
and the responsibility definitely fixed.
The state has danced, and DOW willy
nilly, it must pay the piper To re
pair the wrong, to find means to iqui'
date the outstanding bills, and to pro-
vide for such future revenues as will,
with proper economy Of administration,
prevent a recurrence Of this disgrace
lul state Of affairs, is the difficult and
paramount work which this Legislature
is called upon TO do.
It's work TO be accomplished oi
which every patriotic Republican in the
Legislature should lend his assistance.
1t is human nature, and also politics
OF sort, to say They got US into
this, now let them getus out" but ii
isn't patriotism. II the measures in,
augurated by the majority 10 this end
are right snd just and give promise o.
effectiveness, they should be support
ed. Any opposition should be based
upon sincere belief in their unwisdon
and no, upon partisanship. So, too
with the "wets" and the "drys," The
liquor question is but a single issue,
and whatever importance may be at
tached TO it, it should be permitted 81
10 dominate legislation as 10 interfere
with the necessary work along othe
lines, particularly not with the con
sideraion and passage Of proper rev
enue measures.
The nature OF the measures TO bt
presented is yet TO be revealed. The.
may embody part or all Of the re
Communications Of Cvl. Gardner or the,
may be constructed on different line
and principles, But whatever the
are, they should stand strictly on thei
merits and be supported or oppose,
on the single basis Of right. -Giob
