President Wilson has written cam

Senator Francis Warren Of Wyoming,
one Of the most indefatigable war sena-

THE WILSON PAPERS DISTRESSED
Newspapers Of the better class among
those which support President Wilson
thru thick and thin are just now afflict-
ed by his political activities and are Sc
verely censuring his dictatorial interior
ence in congressional contests. Thus the
New York World sees in it grave dan
ger" the Times is more than little per-
picked to find the clue and key to Mr..
Wilson's selections, Endorsements and re-
quotations Of candidates." while the Ev-
ening Post, Of that city, makes stern
protest:
We have never before in this
country seen a president openly as
ume the right to say who should
nd who should not be elected to
ongress. Wilson seems to desire
>set up in Congress body analo-
;ous to those members Of parlia-
lnent in the time Of George III who
we're known as the "lings fril Ids"
It is not simply punishment for the
past that the president appears to
have in mind. He would erect a
kind Of moral terrorism for the fu-
ture. This latest evidence of Pres
ident Wilson's masterful ways will
appear disquieting and dangerous
to sober minded Americans.
One might suspect lack of csndor in
these newspapers, for in the past they
have condoned and defended far more
reprehensible political maneuvering by
the president; but we think the inconsist-
ency is unconscious. In any case, their
sconern is not over the fact Of presiden-
tial politics, nor even over the evil effects
but in reality it is due to the circumstance
that Mr.. Wilson is playing his politics
very badly. $685.
No weli-informed American can be
genuinely surprised by the recent evil
sdences of his singular ideas. No other
president has played politics 50 continu.
Ously as he. Some Of his activities in this
direction have been defensible even iusti-
fable; some have been of dubious ma
ture, yet not seriously harmful; but many
have been personal, partisan and vindic-
tive.
Largely for this reason there Is sharp
division Of opinion as to the role Of Presi-
dent Wilson in our national affairs. His
admirers acclaim him as statesman, and
predict that in history his name will rank
high in that classification. His critics
contend, on the other hand, that as an
executive he has shown that he lacks in
itiative and the power of constructive
thought; his policies are plagarized, be-
ing adopted belatedly and under pres
sure; that he has no capacity to foresee
events and not enough vision or courage
to prepare against them; THAT HE is
IA DRIFTING OPPORTUNIST RATH.
Err THAN A LEADER. And hence
they say, HE DOES NOT POSSESS
THE ESSENTIAL QUALITIES OF
CRAFTSMANSHIP, BUT IS MERELY

DRIVE FOR SHIP WORKERS ON
Chairman Hurley States Vital Need
and Asks but Slight Sacrifices
From Men.

Washington, Feb. 11.-Because ships
are the primary factor in the winning
of this war, and their construction de-
ponds upon labor, 100000 men are to
be enrolled during the present week in
the United States shipyard volunteers.
Registration week" has been set
aside by proclamation In each state,
and the organization for enrolment Is
complete. The board wants men will
ing to give a good days work for
good days pay, and does not ask them
to sacrifice present positions until
called upon.
The need is great. The shipping
board has the money; the housing of
men is being arranged for; the yards
are being completed, and tho mate
rails are available. All that now is
lacking is the spirit in the nation that
will send the best mechanics to the
wards not to disrupt business.

commons on Tuesday that when 1T
came to the real substance of the de-

Mr.. LlOyd-GeOrge said the govern

trades union representatives early this
year. The government, he added. did
not recede in the least from it's war
aims, as they had been stated. 1t
was no use, he said, crying peace
when there was no peace.
Regarding the supreme war council,
Mr.. LloydGeOrge said it was impossi-
bic to make a statement as to the de-
cisions it reached without giving IL
formation to the enemy.
The premier said he would like any
member to point out anything in the
speeches of Count CZernin or Count
Won Hertling which could possibly be
regarded as proof that the central
powers were prepared to make peace
on terms which could be regarded as
inst and reasonable
Germany's Offers Hollow.
Germanys action regarding Russia,
the premier pointed out, proved that
her declarations regarding no annexa-
lions had no real meaning.
Until there was some better proof
than had been provided in any of the
speeches to which he referred that
the central powers were prepared to
consider the aims and ideals for which
the allies were fighting, said Mr..
Lloyd George, it would be the nations
regrettable duty to go on and make
preparations necessary in order to es-
tablish international right.

CHAPTER XVIII.
MacBeard Finds His Destiny.


He gazed at it still hypnotized; he
was trying to fight his way back into
consciousness. For a few moments
he did not know where he was, or
what was happening.
Then, gradually, he began to be
aware Of his surroundings. He saw
the body at his feet, and the high cliffs
Clouts and Davies running toward the
mOtorboat.
Ida stood watching Donald. She
was still hesitating. MacBeard had
found that he could start his engine.
His hand was ON hers. Davies and
Clouts were fifty PAGES away.
Gomez" said MacBeard.
The girl shuddered, and suddenly
she leaped into the boat. MacBeard
threw himself against the gunwale and
pushed it into deep water. He sprang
aboard. He was twenty PAGES from
the shore when his pursuers arrived
at the water line. Davies whipped out
his revolver.
MacBeard crouched behind Ida and
raised her body before him for a
shield. The girl knew nothing of this
maneuver, for she had tainted.
Surrender, you blackguard," shout
ed Davies, hoarse with passion.
MacBeard, trembling, covered be-
hind the girl With his hand, stretched
out behind her, he guided the little
craft. The distance was increasing
swiftly.
Davies let his revolver hand fall. He
knew that at that distance it was i'm
possible to hit MacBeard with any GER
tainty. And he could not run the risk
of shooting Ida.
Impetuously he plunged into the wa"
ter. At first his desperate strokes
seemed almost to carry him as fast as
the motorboat But soon this was
shown to be delusive. The distance
was Increasing every instant. Davies
chung to ledge Of rock and painted
for breath. He shook his free fist at
MacBeard, who laughed scornfully.
He had seen the F55 settle beneath
the waves, and knew that by no pos
sible chance could Donald catch him.
He turned to Ida, who was just
opening her eyes. He took her hand.
It lay limp and cold in his own. He
saw her shudder, and diabolical fury
oyercame him. He struck her across
the face with his open hand.

her arms out toward him. She fell
upon her knees.
Her face was visible now, and Dom

In 1t. The beauty that had dazzled
MIN was gone. A milky pallor, spread
ing along the veins and arteries, suf-
fused the flesh. The same change was
passing over her that had passed over
the dying monster in the house in Bal

With horror Donald realized that
she was dying.
She crouched at his feet; she raised
her eyes to his once more in that mute
yearning. And her face was that of
an aged woman.
For few seconds longer the eyes
looked into Donald's. Then, without
closing, they seemed to glaze. A film
passed over ~nem, and, with shudder,
the queen fell at his feet-dead!
She had given her life in payment
for her disobedience to the racial law.
1t is by such disobedience that the race
evolves into something higher than
