when a treaty has been negotiated
with another country or countries and
that treaty is ratified by the Senate
Of the United States, it becomes the
supreme law, and any law upon the
statute books in conflict with the
terms of the treaty is wiped off the
statute books and becomes nil. The
working people of the Unitaed States
have struggled hard, have made many
sacrifices, have been misrepresented
and maligned and their motives i'm
pugned and their honor questioned,
but fighting true to the line we have
secured in the United States of Ameri-
e. from our Federal Government and
from our State Governments and mu-
inequalities, rights written into the
law.
"All the delegats from the coun-
tries sitting at the peace table and
devising the terms Of the treaty are
not prompted by the highest spirit
Of freedom and justice and democ-
racy. We have helped to make this
fight, we have helped to bring about
this victory and in the language Of
the declaration of March 18th (adopt-
ed in Washington by representatives
of organized labor), while we are
fighting for freedom and justice over
there, we are going to maintain the
freedom and the justice and the rights
of the masses over here.
"We have all of US had and have
implicit confidence in the leader of
the American people Woodrow Viii
son And he has been the spokesman
and Interpreter of democratic ideals
for this war and after, and we shall
continue to have confidence in him to
the end At the peace table he will be
tower of strength as he was a leader
of thought when the Allies were all
belligerent countries fighting the COM
mon battle against Germany and
Austria.
Watch Your Liberties.
More than one hundred years ago
one Of the greatest philosophers pro-
duced by the United States sounded
this warming Eternal vigilance is
the price of liberty Men of labor,
men and women of all walks of life,
don't let US fail to keep that warning
in mind, that eternal viligance is the
price of liberty now as much as, aye,
more SO, than at the time when JEFF
ferson coined the phrase. 1t will be
come increasingly necessary for US to
be viligant if we want to guarantee
and vouchsafe our liberty for the
| future.

USEFUL SEWING SCREEN.

A convenient piece of furniture for the household sewing room is sewing screen, and if the house is not large enough to permit of setting aside one room for sewing activities a sewing screen is a still greater convenience for the room of the woman who has her own or the family mending to at tend to or who just likes to sew.
 First of all, unless one has an apti- tude for carpentry it is well to have carpenter make the frame A three should be low, so that it contains may be within easy reach of the woman who likes to sit in a low chair to sew.
 The screen may be covered with chintz or cretone to match the hang ings of the room. Then it will seem to take up even less space in a small apartment, for it will fall back into line with the other furnishings rather than stand out as an individual, de- manding special space privileges. A good scheme is to cover the screen frame with a fiat layer of the ere tonne on each side of each section, reaching to within about six inches of the floor.
 Tack the cover on securely with small brass headed tacks. Then make ever so many little pockets of various sizes and fasten them securely. They will hold thread and mending materials and all sorts of sewing parapherualia. Larger pockets will be useful for holding small pieces of work or mend : ing.
 The pockets, of course, should be cut | larger than the space which they are 1 to cover and be either gathered or p1aited on. It is a wise scheme to use 1 a narrow elastic as running string

REVENUE LEGISLATION.

In connection with the matter of passing legislation dealing with more revenue the suggestion has been made by Senator Simmons that a special session be called for this purpose. This is apparently meant for the pur. pose of satisfying those who are cla- moring for an early adjournment of congress which it is thought can be taken by the first of July if the oues- ton of new revenue is not taken up at this time and those who are in- sisting that it should be delayed un- Ill the winter session which would be In plenty time to provide the money since the government has more than it can spend before provision can be made for more.
 The special session would thus he in the nature of a compromise. The whole matter seems to hinge at the present time on whether the facts in the case make it more advisable to keep congress ir session until it dis poses of this matter or to delay and bring up the question which is bound to require no little time at a session which is short and always crowded with business.
 It ought to be possible to determine without much trouble outside of any political effect which may be in. volyed whether the revenue legisla. tion should be passed now. that ths country may have time to understand it and prepare for it, or whether i can be wisely put off, and the deeis ion should rest upon the facts in tn, case. If it is wiser to do it now con gress must be expected to its part.

REPUBLICAN CITY TICKET.
HELP THE RED CROSS.

Locally the Red Cross fund, as the result of the energetic campaign that has been waged has not as yet reach cd it's minimum. From the country in general there is the report that the S10O,O00,000 mark has been passed and that a determined effort will be made 70 carry the fund to the S150 900 000 mark. It is a worthy ambition in which the country should respond with enthusiasm, and while the rest of the nation is doing it's best to go so far over the top the same amount of in terest it is believed will result in q local oversubscription Certainly there is no cause which deserves ii more than the Red Cross.
 When the first s100,0oo, ,0oo was sought and secured there was much less to do than there is today The number in the army and navy was much smaller. But with the increase of our fighting forces to what they are today and their active entrance into the conflict with the daily cas. ualty lists, it is perfectly apparen, that there are bigger demands for the service rendered by the Red Cross Those demands, like the army ant navy, are growing every day. The work which is so fully understood i. of the most necessary character. Int money raised will be put to the bes use and while the campaign is under. way everyone should be eager to set that sufficient is provided so tha. there will be no nossibiIitv of a shnrt age. Our boys are entitled to every cent that will be raised. Don't fai to be identified with it.

and in view of the course pursued rel atiye to this underwater boat it is to be presumed that the, U-S9 will be treated likewise. and that the crew of the latter as well as that Of the for mer will be taken to an interior point for internment during the period of the war.
 Spain has reason to take good care that these vessels are not refitted and that the crews are not allowed to es- cape. It has had experience in deal ing with such cases which must have taught it lesson when it comes to safeguarding it's own welfare. Lem ieney which was previously shown re- suited not only in the escape of the crew but of the submarine. Spain has been no slight sufferer from the dep relations of the unrestricted warfare. It has lost 7S vessels and not few lives since the opening of the war and it should begin to realize that it is time to take precautions in it's own behalf. It cannot too rigidly enforce the provisions of the internment

HEvIv,Ne RUSSIA,

A million permanently disabled prisoners are being sent from Ger many back to Russia. They are be- ing returned under an agreement with Russia for two reasons. Germany wants to get rid of the trouble and expense of. taking care of them and it wants to get in return an equal number Of able German prisoners wha gre now detained in Russia. This is i1 keeping with the German interpre- ta tie- oi fair exchange being no robbery
 Ifut with this million of Russians. walking corpses as they have been termed because of their emaciatea condition. going back home what eff feet are they going to produce upon their countrymen Are they going to arouse their felIowmen to reaIiza- ton of the condition which they face under the plan of Prussian domination of Russia. or, are they going to con- vince by their tales that it would be the wisest thing to lie humbly down before the imperial German govern ment and let it complete the crush ing of the body on the neck of which it has so cruelty trannpled?
 Everything seems to substantiate the belief that these returning pris- oners, a million men who are bound to be permanent dependents because of the treatment which they have re- ceived at the hands of their captors. are going to arouse their countrymen to realization of the real condition of Russia today and the future which it faces unless it takes the bull by the horns and puts an end to Prus- sianism. Who can make a greater appeal for Russian unity, reorganiza- tion and resistance?

HUMAN MACHINERY.

We have headaches and colds, not at all realizing our body is in need of some good pure oxygen
 Mechanics take much better care of their machinery than they do of their own bodies. They know that unless the machine is cleaned, oiled and rest ed occasionally it will not run prop erly. How often do they think of the importance of caring for their human machinery? They run it at the high est tension, feed it on stale air and improper food and then become sur prised if it runs down.
 Upon arriving at the office in the morning open the window wide and air the room out for few minutes Of course, in warm weather the window should be kept open all day. Re member to have it open three or four inches from the top, inches from the top, as impure air rises and it es- capes from the room quicker that way In cold weather keep the window open a few inches, top and bottom, as with the steam turned on it is always warm enough.

THE GERMAN. .sINN FEN PLOTS.

Any who may have thought that the British were not justified in the ar rest recently of Sim Fein leaders in Ireland cannot fail to be convinced, as the result of the statement which has just been made by the British government, that the action was fully warranted All the evidence which the British possess has not been re- vealed There are many things in connection with the plots which have been discovered which it would cer- tainly be unwise to disclose at this time It has been shown however that. there has been a determined eff fort upon the part of Germany to weaken Great Britain by striking at it through Ireland. That all of the peo- therein is not to he supposed. It is even admitted that the nationalists were not only guiltless in this connec- ton but that they knew nothing about it. Those who were operating with Ger
 many in the secret dealings were even working for the betrayal of their own race as well as the English.
 Advantage was taken of working through the United States as long as such. was possible. and here much of the plotting was done for the Easter uprising in 1916. The arrest and exc cution of the leaders at that time did not deter Germany or the other Sim Feiners from making another endea- TOT, and no better evidence could be presented than that which showed that the British were so thoroughly in touch with the plots on each occasion that they were able to frustrate them hefore they could get the revelts un- derway. Such a revelation as has therefore been made is bound to car ry conviction wherever it is read.
