As to just how Gov Hunts followers in the state senate can justify their action in opposing the anti-sabotage bill in time of war is past understanding Sabotage in the Arizona copper mines means failure to stand behind our soldiers in France. The l. w. w. Is the only labor organization that has ever admitted the practice of such a reprehensible thing. Surely these sena- tors do not wish to go on public record as trying to protect the ]. w. ". in Arizona. Winsor, Whipple, Mattox, Roberts, Kin ney, Colter voted to lay this measure over. Colter afterward changed his vote. Their stand in this matter is not only unpatriotic, but it appears in the light of stand against organized society in general. Sabotage is nothing less than destruction of property as malicious and indefensible as any petty crime defined by statute, or serious crime either, for that matter, for there have been cases of sabotage where the loss ran up into the thousands And Is it not also strange that all of these senators voting to lay over the anti-sabotage bill are Hunt followers? Just another powerful lot of circumstantial evidence against the governor in the matter of the charge of leaning towards the l. w. w. in His sympathy like the wobbly picture he had taken with his arm around his friend Perry, who was one of the chief witnesses for the defense in the trial of the l. w. w. in Chicago.

A blaze which entirely consumed the frame house owned by Isaac Lan- ders. on lower Firs; street. in Tomb stone, and threatened several adioin- ing houses occurred Thursday after noon about o'clock. Volunteer ire 6ghters turned out to help extinguish the blaze, but lack of organization was resr onsinle for water not being avail able for full ten minutes after they arrived st the scene. Their efforts were confined 10 saving another frame building adjoining the blazing house. The home of Mrs. Nellie Dalgleish. ad- joining the south side and the Pycatt residence across the street were threatened for a time until the wind changed. The origin of the fire was unknown as the occupants hads moved out the day before. A dog, which hai Crewled under the house, was burned to death, not being able to make his escape.

The captain directed him to pro-
coed to M. Clemenceau's automo-
bile, which he did. The premier
stepped out and slapped him upon
the back, handing him his war cross.
One of the generals remarked laugh
ingly:
"Never mind about being late.
You we're on time the other morn
ing; that is enough"
The soldier, in the excitement and
glory of the moment, forgot to sa-
lutte, but an American general came
to his rescue, whispering:
"Salute! Salute"
Can't Wear Them.
None of the decorated men can
wear their honors until authorized
by Congress. The premier went far
forward into an observation post
overlooking No Mans Land, the
German positions and the country
in the distance, then hidden in the
haze. He entered several dug-outs
under the ruins of houses brought
down since the arrival of the Am
erican troops. A few shells, both
friendly and hostile, whistled over
head while M. Clemenceau wa there
but none dropped ear The premier
seemed especially impressed with the
sturdy, healthy appearance of the
Americans, even those caked in mud,
who had just returned from the
front line. He spent the afternoon
in inspecting the billets in many
towns back of the lines and also Wis
tied a field hospital, where he talk
ed with the men wounded in the re-
cent raid, telling all of them they
had done finely.

With the American Army in
France, Sunday, March 3.-Premier
Clemenceau, who spent today on the
American front northwest of Toul,
decorated two l%ieutenants, two ser
geants, and two privates with the

heroism which they displayed in the
recent German raid in this sector.

Mans Land in broad daylight and
got a German prisoner.
M. Clemenceau, accompanied by
two French generals, arrived at
American headquarters at the front
at an early hour and Immediately
went to where the troops were drawn
up on three sides of a square in
companies.

The names of the men to be dec
grated were called, and they stepped
up, the French premier pinning the
decorations on them and saying a
word to each. One he patted upon
the shoulder and said:
"That's the way to do it."
The American blushed and retired
to the ranks.
One of the French generals said
to a lieutenant, newly decorated:
"We have got the Boches down
and we shall put them down deeper
if we keep working as we have"
Private Is Late.
At the end of the ceremony a
young private came running along
hurriedly. He spoke for a moment
with his captain, fearing apparently
that he was going to lose his medal

Snow
(From Tho LvrHo)

tFr0m Tho LtTto)
Out Of the silence,
Out of the dark and lonely sky broodng upon
the silence,
Floats the snow, and slips and sinks and
whispers
Whirling lightly over the frozen earth;
Trembling and wavering in its flight as fear
full
Of the harsh contact;
Lying quite still at last UNCHANGED. unal-
tered,
A pale ghost staring back at the black sky.
Drumming and thrashing rains
Break forth from clouds of summer;
Like clenched fists they beat upon the earth
With lost force they stream down from the
trees;
They are heavy and sorrowful
But earth receives them gladly,
When they have gone the grass becomes more
green,
The air feels fresher than before.
But it is far different
With the new-fallcn snow;
The earth is angry at its coming
1t will not open to it the secret doors;
The trees stand bleakly scowling,
The stiff stalks of the grass press through its
surface;
1t lies aloof, abandoned,
Colorless, dead.
Only the wind
Stirs in its heart the longing to fly back
To the forgetful sky from which it came.
Wearly floating;
In fine dry dust it springs aloft
Spinning in streaming ribbons
Before the breeze;
Sitting and drifting here and there.
Spent gittering particles
That slip back and lie still at last,
Where the black pine trees bar their path;
Sleeping in heavy drifts upon the earth.

The Lady Captain Of Tuscany

New York is still mildly amused and
excited over its subway guards and street
car conductors in skirts. Mr.. Shonts
deems the moment auspicious to paste up
one of his graceful little window notes
bespeaklng courtesy and nickels-but es-
pecially nickels-for these new additions
to his force, The novelty is yet with US
even if already on the wane.
SO we cannot be exactly dazz1ed by this
tale of Italy's girl sea captain. Signora
Belluomini, OF Viaregglo, on the Ligurian
Sea. Storms and tempests are surely
not more difficult to handle than SUBJ
way jam. If the preliminary learning IS
more extensive, the courage and hardi-
hood OF facing curious New York in Mr..
Shonts's ungracious uniforms fairly equal.

The Climbing Rabbit
CFrom The Miluauhee Journal

(from The MNlrduhee JoluMuD
And now the climbing rabbit.
The time once was, not so very long ago
either, when one could buy a fine fat rabbit
for 10 cents, or 20 cents at the most. That
time is past. In the restaurants nowadays
one has to pay 40 to GO cents for piece OF
rabbit the size of Miss Molly Cottontal's
track. And one is lucky if one gets the left
hind leg even without the lucky foot.
Those of us who remember our Uncle
Remus will recollect the time when the low
able old nature faker told about Brer Rab-
bits getting so hard pushed he had to climb
a tree. Whereupon the little boy objected
that rabbits couldn't climb trees "But,'
said Uncle Remus, che jes' materially had ter
do it, honey; he jes had ter do it,"
In the present days of advancing prices
there may not be adequate reason for Brea
Rabbits climbing SO exorbitantly on the
hotel and restaurant menu cards. But he Just
naturally has to do it to keep in good society
with Brer Bull, Miss Lamb Uncle Hog and
Sister Chicken.
New-York tribune., 1918-02-03

admirable suggestion was made by DR..
Albert Shaw. That was to call for the
enlistment, if need be, of volunteer army
of shipbuilders. If we can enlist near to
half million men Of enlistment age for
the army, at $50 a month, it does not seem
as if it ought to be difficult to enlist half
this number for an industrial army, to
serve the nation at home at wages of Sc
or So a day. But what is wanted is some-
thing more than just men working for a
wage. We need earnestness and enthu-
siasm. We need workers with war spirit,
the kind who every day at their jobs feel
that they are helping this country to ego
over the top" Why, as DR.. Shaw said,
should not such men be entitled to some
thing of the saMe honor and consideration
as the men who go to France? They are
Just as surely helping to win the war. And
if they had the will they could work
very hard.
We feel that what is lacking here is not
measured in dollars. The workers Of
America have now the highest wages that
have ever been known in the history Of
the world. They have enough. What they
seek now is what all men seek when they
have satisfied their primal hungers That
is, distinction, recognition, feeling of
achievement. They need, they deserve, a
nations applause Touch this string OF
the human harp, and we believe that very
large part of the problem will be solved.
When our men go marching off to war,
when they come marching home from war,
why should they not be passed in review
by another army, home army, an indus
trial army, likewise in unifornl-an army
that has built the ships that have carried
the food and the guns and the shells and
the men who have brought triumph to
the Allied arms, and made Americas con-
tribution the decisive factor in the war?

The shake-up on the staff of Field Marshal
Haig, reported several days ago in cables from
London, has been quickly followed at Camp
Devens by a shake-up in the whole system of
voice culture at that cantonment Unham-
pered by the censor the correspondents on
the ground have given to the people "the

inally engaged to supervise this phase Of

ganst, who will be given full swing, and an
early'improvement in the singing of the diyis-
ion is confidently expected. We are not told
whether the retiring musician is to be called
to Washington to place upon superwar

Why have there never been lady sea
captains before? Well, why have there
never been lady conductors? Simply be-
cause there haven't been, apparently
The dispatch from Italy telling Of Signora
Belluomini does not ascribe her ambitions
and her final obtaining of masters
ocean-going license to war conditions. But
such, we suspect, was the case The war
is not transforming women into new
breed Of human beings. 1t is simply let
ting them, for the first time, do all the
things that they always could have done.
There was "Moran of the Lady Lefty"
some time ago, for instance, one of the
ablest sea captains in or out of fiction.
Who has not felt personal warmth of
gratitude to Frank Norris for presenting
her? We cannot recall that Joseph Con-
rad has ever matched her with a genuine
ocean-going captain. But that seems more
chance than anything significant. Surely,
for one, that strange, fearless heroine Of
"Victory," Lena, would have faced the
worst the sea can say without tremor.
Ladies have gone down to the sea as
figureheads long enough. Hail the mis-
tress Of the ship
