Figures collected by the census bu-
reau show that about twice as many
people died from influenza In nine
weeks as were killed in our expedl-
tlonary forces in Europe from the time
the first contingent landed until the
signing of the armistice. Total deaths
in our army of 100000 are estimnted
at 10000. The figures collected by the
census bureau tor the Flu" epidemic
included only the larger cities of the
country and did not take into consld-
Grafton deaths from the epidemic in
smaller cities, towns and rural com
munities. In these larger cities about
$4,000 deaths We're recorded. Phla-
dephia was hit harder than any other
city and Baltimore next hardest.

Occasionally there is a suggestion
that the states have some rights in our
system of government. The matter
came up when the new senator from
New Hampshire, George IL, Moses,
was presented. There was a suspicion
that a little partisanship was injected
into the opposition to having Moses
sworn in, but the discussion turned
upon the right of state to be repre-
Sented. Short and strong arguments
were made on this subject by Senators
Underwood of Alabama and Reed of
Missouri. Afterward Senator Lewis of
Illinois remarked that many lawyers
in the senate clearly missed the point
when they referred to the fact of a
new senator presenting himself. THAT
is not the idea ut ALL" said Lewis. ut
was the sovereign state of New Hamp-
shire presenting a man TO the senate
10 represent her, and with certificate
under the seal of the state" At all
events, the idea was clearly brought
out that every state has right to be
represented and that the certificate
from the properly constituted authori-
ties of the state is prima facie evil
dence that the state has acted. What
may happen afterward in case con-
test is brought is for the senate to de
termine, but the right of a state to be
represented in the senate is considered
fundamental by those who discussed
the subject.

Heretofore there has been very lit
tie difficulty about raising money
for the various relief agencies
connected with the war, such as
the Red Cross. Y. NJ. c. A., Salvation
Army and kindred organizations. But
the great united war work drive this
time Jagged. One explanation. how
ever was the suggestion that lot of
this money was needed TO feed the
starving people of Germany. A great
many people who have been cheerful
givers heretofore still had the feeling
that we should first take care of the
people belonging to our allies, those
peoples who have been prosecuted,
scourged and suffered horrible atroci-
ties at the hands of the Germans, Aus
TRANS, Bulgarians and Turks; that
they should first receive the care and
attention of the United States. There
are many people in this country who
did not want their money used for the
purpose of relieving suffering in Ger
many until those who had suffered by
German acts had been relieved.

War work clerks are going home as
fast as they can make arrangements
to leave. In many of the large depart
ments devoted wholly to work brought
on by the war cards have been passed
around asking the clerks whether or
not they desire to remain or 20, and 1t
was surprising to the officials to find
how many were ready to leave as soon
as they could be spared. In very
short time it is expected that many
thousands of these war workers will
be at home. For the most part they
have had all they want of Washington
with its high prices and inconvenient
methods of living. Besides, with the
close of the war, the incentive which
brought them TO Washington and
caused them to engage in this war
work is gone. They feel that with the
war ended they are no longer war
workers. They took a pride in that
title, but like many men in the army.
they feel that there is really no further
necessity for them 10 continue in the
government service.

One day when only a few senators
were actually in the chamber, and I'M
important bills were being considered,
Senator Sheppard of Texas tried to
put over something to help prohibition,
which is his hobby. \ bill to permit
the construction of Il bridge over a
river In Tennessee came up, and Shep-
pard quietly offered an amendment
which would have made the District
of Columbia bone-dry. No one was
paying much attention and Sheppard
might have got away with IT had not
Vice President Marshall sounded an
alarm by remarking, The pending bill
is hardly an appropriate place for the
amendment" Senator King of Utah
then woke up and objected on the
ground that the amendment had moth

remarked the vice president.
Sheppard saw that his chance was
gone and withdrew his amendment,
after accusing Marshall of giving the
game away.

Elephants or observers of the condi-

can recollect that Immediately upon
the announcement of the cessation of
hostillties there was wild scramble
on the part of all the troops in Cuba

was prospect of further fighting with
the Filipinos in the Philippines, the
men did not care so much about leav-
Ing those islands.
As soon as the armlstice was signed
