We regret to report that Congress adjourned without enacting a law com- polling man to wear a veil when he needs shave.
 An old saying that needs revision is the cne about ignorance being bliss. If this was true. about 90 men out of each hundred would be happy.
 After spending an evening with the gang in a kaif we are willing to admit that If it wasn't for the men, women would be the biggest gossips on earth.

 At that, prohibition isn't going to make any little tin Utopia out of this and go hungry and wear shabby clothes in the state in which they have had prohibition for many years
 And the pitiful thing about nation- wide prohibition is that 1t will close the saloons in Maine where prohibition has been in effect for half century.

Presidents Prestige

Should Not Be Impaired
 1HHAT influential newspaper, the q Philadelphia Public Ledger, cor rectly interprets the public view in saying:
 Whatever may be the feeling of
 Congress, individually and collective
 ly, toward the President at the mo-
 ment the country as a whole has un-
 doubtedly experienced sense of re-
 lief that there was no outward man.
 Hesitation of hostility or resentment toward the President and his policies
 on the eve of his departure for the
 peace conference
 The attitude of certain members of Congress, particularly in the Senate, has already created distinctly unfav- orable Impression abroad. Foreign newspapers in their comment express astonishment. They do not understand why there should be any question of President Wilson's motives, or the propriety of his attending the peace conference, when practically the whole world regards him as the proponent of those principles which will form the basis of peace
 As the Public Ledger rightly says, MT. Wilson will be |'the upstanding figure at the coming conference" The honors shown him will not only be an evidence of the esteem in which he is held personally, but will ex- press the feeling our allies have for America and appreciation for our part in the war.
 Regardless of whatever his critics may say, MT. Wilson represents the American people on his present mis- sion and will speak for them at the peace conference. His principles have been freely discussed and have been accepted by America and her allies. The attempt to make of Mir. Wilson an autocrat on a triumphal progress is absurd and in bad taste. To question his sincerity at this late day is re- flection on the American people who have supported him Loyalty in all his war policies. It is the cheapest kind of politics.

I It is the big obstacle to the new or. der of things. For there is new order of things in Ireland and it is the Sim | Fein order
 The Sim Feiners have abandoned the Home Rule cry, and the nationalist par ty has been practically plotted out. The Sim Feiners dominatethe country today Two-thirds of all. the Irish people are in the Sim Fein movement-,adnitted even in Ulster-and the Sim Fein movement stands for complete and entire separation from Great Britain, a separation in which every tie shall be broken. Nothing less than this is talked of by the Sim Fein- CTS. They claim England seized Ireland by force and has held herA.by force ever since. separate race speaking sep arate language. they claim 1t more en- titled to separate nationality than Belgium, switzerland, Holland< or Dem
 l mark, all of which it exceeds in terri tory. n
 The policy as givenaby the committee with whom l talked here is "Ceaseless agitation, ceaseless resistance and open rebellion ,as often as possible The British will crush these uprisings Our leaders will be shot and jailed We are prepared for that, but we knew others will take up the fight where we leave off Agitate, resist, rebel. In the end We will make her let <go.
 The speaker was one %vho had been jailed and sentenced to death last Easter but afterwards released
 *x* <
 The chief charge against Sim Fein was that it was disloyal during the war, accepted aid from Germany and plotted with the Hun to stab England in the back. In Dublin they admit and justify 1t by saying that "Englands difficulties were Irelands opportunities" and that England is our oppressor."
 When one was asked if they were pro- Germans, he answered:
 we are not. We are pro-Irish.' Yet you accepted aid from Germany" was asked.
 Yes. but we took it just as we would have taken it from America or from France or from anyone Nwho would aid us-against England. We incurred no obli- gation to Germany more than to others to lend us a hand.''
 Asked if it was true that there was a plan to land arms at an Irish port Sir Roger Easement, the reply was:
 Sir Roger was not in German employ. He was patriot. He sought assistance against England and he got it. Unfor- euidlely, HIS pldHS mlSCaTrled ana ne was arrested and executedl This was in 1916. long before America entered the war, We have had mo truck or>bargain with sGermany since
 Though Sir Roger was in custody we went ahead with our plans>for an upris- ing. We fought England with all our power and there were many casualties and much loss of life. We have been
