THE ARREST

Some people are going to take no.
tice of few things from now on.
When government officials caused the
arrest OF Deputy Sheriff Schidler Of
Nye county yesterday, on charges of
seditious utterances, they took in a
whole lot more territory than might
DO supposed. More than one man,
and not only socialists by any means,
has remarked that this is a war of
capitalists and that the government
was dominated by Wall Street The
writer Of this article stood on an FL
ko corner one day and listened to the
same idlotic howl from one OF our
prominent socialists; this was be.
fore the war, however, and during
the La Toilette sensation in the sen.
ate. This man even had the nerve
to hold that senatorial lemon, La
Toilette, up as an ideal statesman
and a man who was fighting for the
good OF the people. Come to find out
both La Toilette and informant were
from the same district which Is a hot
bed of such thinkers anyway. II this
man Schidler has made scditious re-
marks he ought to be held up as an
everlasting example to- fow OF the
unthinking people OF this state who
still believe themselves capable, with
their puny talk, to turn upside down

MEMBER OF THE ASSOCIATED PRESS
MecARRAN is OUT

II is with extreme personal gratifi.
cation. and feeling that democracy
in Nevada has been greatly strength
ened, that we announce today the
withdrawal of Chief Justice p. A.
McCarran from the senatorial race.
1t is no small thing for a party TO be
suffering the internal throes natural.
ly caused by the threshing about OF
such prominent and powerful men as
Pat McCarran. While it has been a
matter of stock information for some
time. many years in fact, extending
even back to time dating before the
Judges election to the supreme bench
that he has had his eye on the Unit
ed States senatorship, the times have
not been propitious for the realization
OF his ambition. There is nothing to
be gained by defeat, either for pres.
ent or future. and the Judge has
again played a wise hand in biding
his time.
The qualification that we feel arises
from the fact that we consider Judge
McCarran a friend of ours and our
selves his friend. We would like to
peel our coats and go in for Pat, but
II he had persisted in coming this
year. We could not have done so. Chas.
iB. Henderson is the logical man for
the job and regardless of party lines
We think that people generally all
over the state REALIZE the truth OF
this statement. And then again it is
not right for men to be playing with
the gifts accorded them by the people
of their state. 1t is well enough TO
play sure game but man does not
rise in the estimation of his fellow.
citizens when he uses, or attempts
to use one place as a stepping stone
to another, and regardless of his at
utude along these lines some little
time ago Pat had evidently seen the
light on that proposition.
We cannot conceive of a man who
would make better showing in the
senate than Pat McCarran. Always
the child of adversely. we might say
he has continually risen to the occa
sion in true Irish spirit and smashed

Pat is not the man this time and he
knows the why's and wherefores OF II
Just as well as we do.
We are hoping, however, that at the
next senatorial election the crystal
will cloud with McCarran's image as
the man of the hour, for we would like
to see Pat there. and whether 1t Is
four years from now, or eight. OF
twelve, we feel more than ordinarily
confident that he will get there even
tually, for he senatorial timber and

MENTAL TESTS

American Soldiers VIII Be
Examined by New Psy-
Geological Process.

A mental inventory of all enlisted
men and newly-appointed officers in
the army will be taken at once. The
experiments along this line made at
four Divisional training camps have
proved wonderfully successful and
have warranted extensions of the
work. Recommendations to this ef-
feet by Surgeon Gen. Gorgas have
been approved by the Chief Of Staff.
The objects of these psychological
examinations are:
To aid in segregating and eliminat-
ing the mentally incompetent.
To classify men according to their
mental capacity.
To assist in selecting competent
men for responsible positions.
The results of the tests made thus
far show that approximately 2 per
cent of the drafted men as they ap-
pear in camp are so seriously defec-
tive in mental development that they
are either menaces or nuisances in
military organizations; that the intelli-
gence ratings of their men supplied to
the company commanders greatly as

Scores of drafted men, mentally in

in their military careers than would
have otherwise occurred. General
employment Of scientific procedure in
psychological examining will greatly
lessen military costs through the

Dhan Gopal Mukerjii Says
British Author Missed
Indian Spirit.

After q strictly vegetarian Hindu
has been forced to come into per-
+sonal contact, possibly through
shaking hands, with a meat-eating
person. he takes a bath at the ear
lest possible moment. Before he
moves into a house formerly occu-
pied by, a meat-eating person he has
the premises thoroughly white
washed. -.
These sidelights> on Hindu life
Were given by Dhan GopaI Mukerji
in his lecture at the home of former
Commissioner William P. Emo, 1771
street. last night on The India
of Tagore and Kipling." Mukerji
was clad in the rose-colored gar
ment of a high-easte Hindu.
Says KipIIng Failed.
According to MukeTji, Kipling
failed to touch the real heart of
Indian life, because, being a meat
eating Englishman. he came in in
innate contact, not with the true
Hindus, but only with the meat
eating Mohammedan element of the
Indian population. Among Kip
iing's writings there is but one
four-line translation in which he
has caught the true spirit Of India,
in the lecturers opinion. This
fragment is the couplet reading:
Corn for the cattle.
Fodder for the kline.
Mothers heart for sleepy head.
Little son of mine
In contrast to Kipling. Mukerji
claims that Tagore, in his poetry has
caught all the mystic qualities of the
Hindu mentality. The lecturer read
extracts from Tagore's verse with
splendid dramatic effect. in order to
nrove his statement. He also cited
hits from Tagore's plays, notably
The King of the Dark Chamber"
rhich he described as an excuse for
roetry,"
Mukerji described vividly the soul
illing qualities Of the MOhammedan
ale which preceded the British
animation of India. but stated that.
IA spite of MOhammedanism. the true
prevailing spirit OF India Is that OF
Hindu culture.
Mukerji speaks without a trace OF
accent, being a graduate of Leland
Stanford University. where he occu-
pied the chair Of philosophy for three
Years after he finished his course at
the college. He has written several
books on India.
The proceeds of last nights lecture
were given to the Red Cross. A part
OF the money will be- used by the
comfort section for the equipment of
the Convalescent houses which are
being built in connection with the
Walter Reed and base hospitals in
the cantonments near Washington.
Mukerji will lecture again on the
evening OF January IS in the small
ball room of the Willard. on THE His
tory of India. Its Problems and So
lutions." The proceeds will go to
war relief organizations.

Browning's Poetry
In Musical Setting

With the assistance of an elocu-
Zionist, a singer and a violinist,
Miss Pauline Jennings. staff lecturer
OF the New York Board of Educa-
tion. demonstrated vividly the rela-
tion Of Browning's poetry TO mUsi-
cal composition in a lecture before
the Arts Club last night.
In the opinion of Miss Jennings.
the verse of the great poet complies
with the laws Of musical compo-
sition as well as those OF poetry.
Miss Jennings was assisted by
Pauline Gates, eloCutionist; Mary
Isabel Hall: mezzo soprano, and An
ton Kaspar. Violinist. BrowninE's ;
poems set to music furnished the
basis of these artists efforts and
supported Miss Jennings argument
in regard to his music.
