The Editors Mail Bag

Editor Forum: The work of the
bandits in the town of Climax, Mich,
reported in Saturdays Forum,
prompts me TO say, that warning the
people of our state Of the posslbili-
ties Of just such acts as those by
the vandals who are abroad. in the
land made up a considerable portion
OF the work Mr.. Arnold anW myself
were doing in our recent patriotic
tour of the state. I sometimes won
der how long it is going to take the
people of this country to wake up
to-the fact that we are in a state OF
war, and that we should be prepar-
ed to meet war-like conditions right
here in our own communities. The
people OF Climax lost an opportunity
to cover themselves with glory by
not being on the alert and prepared
to administer justice to that gang OF
bandits which visited their town last
Saturday. My judgment Is, there are
many towns in this state where the
vandals would meet with a warm
reception If they should attempt such
raid on them. Wherever Mr..
Arnold and / went, we urged the
people to organize home defense
leagues or vigilant committees, con-
sisting of every man, woman, boy
and girl in the community old en-
ough to watch, and be on the alert
every hour of the day and night, in
order that they might not be taken
by surprise by any gang OF outlaws
which might attempt to raid their
localities. We urged that every able
bodied man should be sworn in as a
deputy sheriff, not for pay, but for
protection, and be armed and pre-
pared to meet any emergency that
might arise. Then we urged that
everybody else who did not have a
gun, get one, and IL they did
not know how to shoot, learn
to shoot, and then not shoot unless
they had to; but If they had to shoot,
shoot to kill.
These are strenuous war times,
and while we are not In the enemy's
country, the enemy is in our country,
and he il here, to commit all the
devastation he can. At one point in
our rounds we fought where there
was a conspiracy in which IL was
agreed among the conspirators that
our crops should not be harvested;
but IL they were harvested, they
should never be marketed. Nothing
can defeat these, and like conspira-
tors, but eternal vigilance on the
part of the organized, patriotic citi-
zenship of every community in the
state. The emissaries Of our cruel
and inhuman enemy are abroad in the
land, and they are instructed to rob,
burn and kill, and we should be
ready to smite that condition with
a swift and heavy hand.

Last Week of the Columbia Stock
Company.

Next Monday will begin the fare
well week Of this popular company,
and we can honestly say that, we are
sorry, it is the last week, for we think
that every one in Westminster has
certainly enjoyed the clever perform
ances given. The repertoire for next
week will be fully as good as the
preceding weeks. On Monday THE
Bachelor and the Girl" A very
clever four act comedy drama. On
Tuesday they will repeat from last
year The World And His Wife"
This is the play that made such a
favorable impression here last year.
On Wednesday a brand new play,
Just Plain Molly" a charming

gorgeous costumes. Mr.. William

Mystery" the most protentious play

Saturday night, for the closing per-

purposes only. 1t certainly fulfills
that purpose. It's even funnier than

1t was a revelation to the people
of Westminster last year and has
been again this year, how a company
can put on so many different plays in
such a short time. This shows the
clever management OF the Columbia
Stock Company, for several months
they have been getting ready for their
four weeks stay here, putting on
new play almost every week in order
to be in shape for Westminster, 9TH
erwise it would be an impOssibility
to produce a different play each night.
1t also shows that the Columbia
Stock Company appreciates the good
houses they are receiving here, by
working for them a month ahead OF
time, getting the scenery and cos
tunes ready and above all, getting
the lines of the play in their heads.
The Columbia Stock Company does
not use a prompter, they have on an
average of two rehearsals every day,
and by watching them we have found
out that an actors life is not all
bed of roses, when you figure that
they have a rehearsal at 10 a. m,
which lasts until II and then another
at 2 p. m, which runs until 4.30 p. M,

iurphy will, of course, remain in

N case Of democratic defeat change

Syas much or little to the gossip, it ceases

ible-Mr. Murphy may be expected to
lake a fresh hold and go on with his
work. The tiger knows where the raw
meat is and who dispenses it, and Mr..
Murphy, from long practice, knows how
to feed a tiger.
To secure state control again, Tam
many must have a good man to run for
governor. He will have to be strong,
because he will be pitted probably
against Gov. Whitman, who was re-
siected last year by very large ma

Soft Coal as Substitute.

Fuel Administrator Weaver suggests
that in this time Of hard coal shortage
local consumers should undertake the
burning of soft coal as a substitute.
This is not an easy matter, for most
stoves and furnaces are built for hard
;eoai burning. Yet with care the two
can be used together and the present
hard coal supply eked out until it has
been replenished from the mines Do
-nestic furnaces can be so managed with
"a bed of anthracite as base This
necessitates a little more attention than
needs TO be given to the exclusively hard
coal furnace, which usually requires no.
.tiee only four OF five times 4 day But
.n such an emergency as the present,
.,Eth the fuel supply decreasing. this is
comparatively q slight disadvantage. Or
course, the use OF soft coal in dwellings
will increase the smoke output, and it
will prove troublesome to housekeepers
in the dust that is occasioned by its
manipulation. But between smoke and
dust on one side and actual lack of
sufficient warmth on the other there is
no room for choice. Washington does
mot want to become a sooty, smoky city,
and it hopes for continued enforce
,nent in the main of the anti-smoke law,
yet if the use of soft coal should ma
teriaHy increase as measure Of ne
eessity, the District would willingly see
temporary relaxation in the official
vigilance over the ehimneys. However
extensive the use Of soft coal may be-
come to fill the gap opened at this
period of greatest demand, there will be
no justification for permanently relin-
ia1ishing the present high standard of
cleanliness.
