from this cause. Spencer is expected
at once to succeed Whitley from Mis-
q uri and, If Nugent of Idaho is beaten,
mis- place will at once be filled by
Gooding, Republican.
Thus the Democratic strength in
the Senate may be promptly cut to
so. II Henderson OF Nevada is beaten
for reelection, it may be cut to 40.

fore. the election result will have no
effect on District affairs.
1t is the expectation, however. that
an extra session of Congress will be
held next spring.
Just now. practically all proposed
District legislation is at a standstill.
The profteering Legislation is
blocked because Of personal differ
ences between Mr.. johnson, Senator
Pomerene and other Senators.
The effect OF this feud is to hold
back other important District meas
ures. The probabilities are the feud
will continue as long as Mr.. Johnson
heads the committee.
MaPes Young Man.
Mr.. Mapes is one OF the young and
active members of the House, who
has taken considerable interest in
District matters. He has been re
elected by the largest majority he
ever received.
Not only will the District Committee
be changed, but the subcommittee of
the House Appropriations Committee
which makes up the District bill, will
be changed. II is now headed by Con-
gressman Sisson OF hlsslsslppl' DenO-
crat, a foe Of the "half-and-half" He
will be succeeded by a Republican If
the Republicans organize the COM
mittees.
The "haIfand-half' policy for the
District has always been upheld BY
Republican Congresses. While not a
few House Republicans are opposed to
il, II IS hardly likely that a Repuo-
Iican House. with big reconstruction
plans on it's hands, would make an Is
sue of II.
Senator John Walter Smiths sue
cessor. as a matter OF rank on the
committee, would be Senator Dilling-
han. but he will doubtless prefer an
other committee. This leaves Senator
Jones as the probable selection for
the chairmanship II he desires It SEN
ator Jones has always taken a close
interest In District matters.

CURRENT COMMENT.

THREE hundred thousand babies UNI
der II months Of age die each year
in this country. Sixty per cent OF
them, 1870, 900, die because their moth
ers do not know how to care for them.
Startling figures, but authoritative;
they come from Mrs. Schof, head of
the National Mothers congress. One
hundred and eighty thousand babies
dead each year through ignorance of
mothers! 1t is not all the fault of
the mothers. We are all to blame.
Every man and woman in this nation,
but, through ignorance, mostly. In
every state there is an agricultural
college, supported by public taxation,
To teach young men how to farm and
to breed better cattle and sheep and
hogs. But little attention is paid to
instruction in the rearing Of healthy
babies. The legislature of Indiana APP
propriated thousands of dollars recent
ly to cure and prevent hog cholera,
and then IL refused to appropriate a
few hundred dollars to print manual
on the care of infants. This is all go
ing to be changed. 1t is being realized
that a baby is worth a great many
times as much as the best hog or
steer or sheep in the world; worth
more in cold dollars, not just in senti-
ment. A healthy baby is an asset, and
ii is good business for the community
and for the nation to carefully guard
the life and health of that baby, and
see that it grows into a sound man
or woman. Realizing this, the federal
government, through its childrens bu-
reau, and civic bodies throughout the
country, have got behind movement
for baby conservation and are making
a serious business of it. They are
trying to teach all the rest of us how
important il is to the nation that ba-
b;es are well born and we'll nurtured.
We can't have strong race of men
and women unless we have sound ba-
bies. That is the meaning of the
"Baby Welfare Campaign which be-
gins in earnest today in this and most
other communities in this land. The
government has proclaimed the day,
and today, as part of the Fourth of
July celebration, we are to have a
baby judging contest, talks to young |
mothers and a lot of that sort of
thing, details Of which were set forth
last week in the news columns. II
you haven't already taken a hand get
behind the movement now, in some
way, and be booster for better ba-
bies.

lone of the best military writer's is
Frank Simonds. In a recent ar
ticle he expresses the following opti-
mistic opinion of the war situation:
Whether Austria collapses in revolt
ution or retires to a sullen and passive
defensive it is hardly too much to be-
lieve that Austria has shot her bolt for
the war and that Germany will be left
single handed to face the great West
ern Powers in the decisive campaign
of the war. The military value of the
Italian success on the Pave is con-
siderable locally and bound to have
influence on the other fronts. The
political importance Is tremendous,
and its effect in Vienna, Sofia and
Constantinople, as well as in Berlin,
can hardly be overstated. A hungry
offensive conducted by one of the
hungry Central Powers has resulted
not in the conquest Of food, but in
the loss of a great battle. The starv-
ing populace which was to be fed on
the unsubstantial but possibly cheer
ing fodder of military success must
now continue hungry, with only de-
feat for dessert. All Americans will
join in congratulating gallant ally on
a splendid military achievement. The
more splendid because it follows de-
feat and depression. Young ltaly's
proud motto: italia Fara Da Sc"
achieves new meaning and a new
glory. Italy has done it for herself,
but also for her allies, and her achieve
ment must be remembered gratefully
by all of us who will henceforth share
the profits. The Teutons, who expect
ed to find another Russia beyond the
Alps, have encountered another
France.

IMAGES are so big in certain lines
at the present time that you are
dissatisfied with your position and
think of resigning. If you have po-
sition with reliable firm or individ-
ual where there is chance of advance
ment or steady employment you had
better stick where you are. In your
contemplated change, consider the per-
manency of the place where you are
in comparison with the uncertainty
CT the one you covet. You must know
that the big wages are resultant from
rush orders in enormous quantity and
when the demand is satisfied the wag-
es will drop correspondingly. Then
what would become of you should the
business slump suddenly? You may
see an opportunity to better yourself
now, but if not permanently, you are
foolish to give up good. fair steady
job. Better look at the matter from
its many sides before you make a
move that you may regret. 1t has tax
en- you a long time to reach the place
of trust you now enjoy and you get
good wages with hope of comfortable
nest egg by saving little every day.
So stick to the steady job.

THERE has been much discussion IN
the newspapers in reference to the
vast amount of advertising asked for
by government for its many war enter
prises, and much injustice is done.
The government cannot afford so 1t
says, to pay for the advertising and
every newspaper desk is flooded with
articles which if printed, would bar
all else from the columns. For the
dignity and self respect of the news
paper business, payment for advertis-
ing matter should be accepted and
even demanded. The manufactures of
shoes and clothing might as well be
asked to furnish his goods free of
charge as that the newspaper give
its space free. There has been much
of unfairness in this matter. The
papers that have been patriotic en-
ough to do this work free have not
been given or offered cent for it,
while those who stick for payment
have been paid The great and inn
portant matter is without system, and
should be revised. 1t is manifestly UNI
fair and unjust to pay one man, and
ask another to do the same without
charge.

SUPPORT YOUR FAIR

Agricultural fairs and livestock
shows have been a strong factor in
community upbuilding. Their influ-
ence is growing. No rural community
can hope to make advancement or to
remain progressive without some
means of bringing before the public
the products of that community. A
fair, therefore, is an advertisement
If it is supported by the people of the
community, it advertises their prog
ress to the outside visitors. If it is
not supported by the people of the
community, it adyertises their back
wardness.
Fairs afford untold opportunities for
those who attend. Their exhibits are
entertaining and educational. The
greater the number of exhibits the
greater the attendance, the better are
the opportunities for entertainment
and education. The prizes, of course,
are offered as an inducement to the
exhibitors, but obviously all exhibit
ors cannot win. However, no exhib-
itor ever loses. for he gains inspira-
tion from having competed.

if he is to continue to advance in his
chosen industry. Farmers and stock
men recognize now, more than ever
before, the importance of mingling
with their friends and fellow-breeders,
of exchanging ideas, making criti-
cisms, and gathering information.
The man who neglects to make use
of his State, county, or district fair,
says S. T. Simpson of the University
of Missouri College of Agriculture,
not only weakens his own position,
but neglects to support movement
which is vital to the State in which
he lives. The public should realize
that nothing can do more to encourage
better breeding, feeding, and manage
ment of livestock than a successful
fair. The fair is just what the peo-
pie make it. By their attendance and
support it can be made great fac
tor in State and community better
ment. Without their support it must
tell to those few who do attend, the
story Of a non-progressive, inactive,
community.
