have criticized the method of Presi-
dent Wilson's reelection upon his
party battlecry of che kept us out of
war" They have criticized Senator
Stone because he insisted on repre-
senting a ST. Louis German constit-
uency and, with Reed, kept Missouri
in the doubtful column in regard to
its position upon the war issue until
Missouri was ashamed of its two rep
resentatives in the nations highest
tribunal, and the rest of the nation
looked in askance upon the great
commonwealth which Stone and Reed
did so much to put in wrong with
the rest of the states.
So far as Roosevelt is concerned
he can take care of himself with
Senator Stone. He has been the Lord
Northcliffe of America and without
Lord Northcliffe Britain today would
be broken and spent as a result of
inefficiency and round pegs in square
holes.
The country doesn't need any more
Stones at this time. 1t does need
some more Roosevelt's to stand on the
ramparts and yell for greater effic-
iency, more munitions, more clothing,
less politics, and more brains in
Washington.
When President Mckinley had the
Spanish-American war on his hands,
Democracy didn't criticize" until
Secretary Alger had to give up his
war portfolio, didn't boiler about
embalmed beef, didn't refer to Cen
eral Shafter as conducting the war
from a hammock" didn't hail with
great alacrity Roosevelt's round
robin, while their peerless leader
of that day went about the country
and shouted imperialism"
There were certain Democrats, too,
in Lincoln's time, who sought no
constructive criticism of the admins
tration; Vallidinghams and their like
who shot from the rear while a
southern Democracy shot from in
front. No Republican is shooting
from behind in this war. They are
critisizing and have a right to crit
lcize where inefficiency and red tape
are delaying things. 1t is their war
much more than it is Democracy's
war and they will no doubt continue
to kick until all men in high places
give way to men who know a howit-
ger from a rifle and starboard from

will thank Roosevelt and the rest OF
the kickers for kicking the admin.

County Treasurer w. T. James has
completed the collection of the first
installment of the 1917 taxes and
has delivered the tax rolls to the
county auditor for notification. Treas
urer James has completed the work
of his office in record time and the
dispatch with which the work is
handled is due in large measure to
Mr.. James experience in this depart
ment and to the fact that he has in
stalled systems of method and time
economy which are a model in the
state.

total of $68,102.98 has been paid
into the treasury; that $52,545.19 of

Keith's leading attraction this
week is Theodore Kosloff with his
Russian ballet. Each number pre-
sented by this aggregation of art
lists is a choreographic cameo. In a
setting reminiscent of an interior
in the Petrograd Winter Palace, the
Russian performers show what
dancing means. From the strange
barbaric rhythms of an Aztec
Poem" throbbfng with the half-sav-
age soul of old Mexico, to the visit
full. complicated harmonies of Tsch-
aikowsky's music. Kosloff showed
himself a master. of his art, both in
technique and in spirit The OPEN
ing number. THE Romance of Rus
sian Winter" was wonderfully done
by Vera Fredowa in a strange set
ting suggestive of the reflected
light from snow. Natacha Rambova
and Maria Maslova also distin-
guished themselves, respectively, in
the aztec Poem" and Classic Ada
gio." A unique feature of the act
is the orchestra's presence on the
stage9
'The One Way Out" with Robert
T. Haines, is a new way of dealing
with the old triangle motif. 1t tells
the gap of death itself TO set his
wife's feet on the path of happiness
with his friend as her companion.
The tremendous climax of the play
cannot be surpassed.
Alfred Bergen's excellent baritone
voice and well selected songs won
him heavy applause. The Mar
seiIlaise" and The Battle Hymn
of the Republic" were especially
well received. AS a concluding
number, he sang THE Hanging of
Danny Deever'' with power and
feeling. Mr.. Bergen wore a service
band on his sleeve with three stars
on his arm which he said was. the
Christmas gift of his mother who
wished him to wear 1t for her three
sons in the service. 'Tn about two
weeks there1l be another star on

Joe Cooke has a vaudeville show

ciated II nightly. Pat Rooney has
given up his newsstand and become
a lawyer. but he can still dance in
the inimitable Rooney style. James
Diamond and Sibyl Brennan pleased
with their amusing patter and SOL
der songs. Miss Brennan's hustle
gown of gold cloth was a real ad-
dition to the act. Bailey and Cowan
showed all the possibilities of the
banjo. Jack C. McLallen and May
Carson presented a clever series Of
modern dances in a gay black and
red setting.
The Hearst-Pathe pictorial con-
cluded the performance.

PoIps-Gwhen Love L. Young.s

when Love Is Young" a military
musical comedy in two acts, was well
presented last evening by the Poll
Musical Comedy Players. This COM
pany is steadily improving each week,
as was clearly shown by the generous
applause by the large audience pres
ent.
The plot was good and delightfully."-
executed, showing the trials and
tribulations Of a pair OF young lovers
before they finally overcome the OBJ
jections Of a determined and ambi-
tious mother, who wants her daugh-
ter to marry millions instead of fol-
lowing the dictates of her heart and
a contrary uncle, who refuses to rem
der assistance to his pecuniary
nephew.
The musical numbers were very
pleasing, especially the Hello, Hello
song by the entire cast, and 'I Don't
Know Why L Kissed YOU" by Miss
Young and Mr.. Lynn, the latter being
repeatedly encored.
The principals, including Miss Louise
Mink as Eileen Mclean, Miss Eulalie
Young as Madge Blake, Miss Sarah
Edwards as Mrs. Mclean, Miss Lii
liam Crossman as Grace Henderson,
Jack Squires as Tony Allen, Billy
Lynn as Chick Sewell, Clarence

in early in the program and Is care

other tunes that will cling. "Pm
Only Dreaming" is a delightful air
and a song worth while. This Is the
one whose effect is heightened by
the novel scenic device in the second
act, by which the singer swings
dreamily over the heads of the au-
dience on a derrick attached to the

This steamer deck setting Is one
of the prettiest and most real Of

Scientific
Optimism

Some wit defined op-
tirnism as not caring what
happens just so it doesn't
happen to me"
That kind of optimism
Is not possible IN the world
any more. Nor is the op-
tinism which says peace,
peace when there is no
peace"
The ends of the world
are too close to each other,
the universal problem is
too complex, all men are
too interdependent.
These very conditions
have made necessary a
great world newspaper
such as The Christian

From its own news
bureaus all over the world
TO its subscribers in every

the news Of the great con-

the Secretary q copy Of the bill to

The days hearing was taken up by
experts on wool and army uniforms.
Col John p. Wood, formerly president
OF the National Association of Wool
Growers, said the present uniform
was quite warm enough for the SOL

found il not warm enough abroad, the
snsciitcations could be altered and

the association, said in q telegram to

there had been since April sufficient
wool in this country to give soldiers

means wool, not shoddy." Winthrop

demonstrate her ability to register
emotion than any of the other recent

divorced her husband and secured
employment as a manikin in a
