Washington, Sept. 3.-ln a lengthy prepared address on what he called unofficial and personal government Senator Sherman of illinois, Repub lican, made a scathing attack in the Senate today on President Wilson and his administration, and. particularly Colonel T. M House, the Presidents personal friend and adviser.
 With ironical references to the itics is adjourned, the senator asserted that, having elected the president al most single handed Colonel House and a coterie of Texas politicians "are in the saddle and they are doing poll tics in the same old way
 Under pretense of war powers, ha said, the administration is placing control of the country in the hands or a few politicians and labor leaders, to be used relentlessly for the election Of party candidates now and a president in 1920
 "I denounce.' he added, "a political autocracy covertly engaged in when the nation is in the stress of war in institutional civil lbertJ.' '
 Colonel House was characterized ty Senator sherman as this alleged, In- elected, unofficial assistant president" "| The senator gave an analysis of al novel said to have been written by| A1 .I I1 t1I autobiography telling a tale of poli-I tics, civil war, love and reform with a meat aX showing how to get rid otI the constitution.
 Secretary Baker was referred to asi "one who thinks of the war as threel quantity of production of combatsaero- planes, delays three months the draftI law amendment of 1918, opposes uni-I versal military training and saysl Washinetons soldiers at Valley Forget were drunkards and chicken thieyesl only 10 be declared by executive pro-l clamation to be the most capable of-l ficial that distinguished functlonary ever knew
 Regarding Secretary of Commercel Redfield, Senator sherman said he had made some sparkling contributions to trade" including the shocking infor, nation that the high cost of living was caused by too many delivery wagons an epic on fish and clans along with al sonnet or two on sheep-kilhng dogs
 Former Secretary Bryan, the senator declared, resigned when he had played second fiddle long enough ana his power for harm had waned."
 Politics began there and it's never adjourned since, in domestic affairs. '" said Mir. Sherman Was there ever a more sordid revelation of selfish, politics with the first executive office. next only to the Pres ident, shuflled about as plunder to suit partisan ends?'
 In criticising Colonel House, Senator sherman said as personal representa- tive envoy of the President while abroad he exercised and usurped powers of government" and "his grat- uitous advice to settle the U-boat dispute provoked the derision of Germany and the impatience of the alles'
 Declaring the administration seeks even to dictate Republican candidates in Republican states, the senator said ::
 Ford is to be made Senator from Michigan by executive order"
 Denouncing what he described as socialistic plans of "a coterie of poli- ticians gilded and plated by group

Elections and Atoms.

Atoms are minute particles of mat
ter each about One-three-hundredth
part of an inch in diameter. They are
so small that if the earth were made
up of baseballs it would be a fair
model of a drop of water made up OF
atoms. The electron is smaller still. 1t
has diameter of about One-hundred-
thousandth that Of an atom, so that II
an atom were represented by sphere
100 yards in diameter the efectron
would be about the size of a pins
head. 1t has been said that the cleo
irons which form an atom can be COM
pared to a swarm of gnats in cathe-
dral or other large building. AS atoms
are made up of electrons, so molsGvdes
are made up of atoms.

prompt and full compliance with the
request without the least hesitation,
equivocation or evasion. Concerted
action at this time will go long
ways toward winning the war. Our
armies in the field would not get
very far if subordinates were per-

people at large question the judg-

There IS only an occasional oQiCoI,
.(of which the editor of this paper is
not one such) who can # o d an
automobile and the following may
SAVIOR somewhat of sour grapes.
With the foregoing preface to show
the angle from which the situation
is viewed attention is called to the
large falling off in automobile traffic
last Sunday due to the Garfield or
der but attention is also called to
the fact that there were a consider
able number Of automobile parties
apparently violating the request. 1t
should be understood that the re-
quest places no restriction whatever
upon driving for business but many
of the parties Sunday bore unmis-
taxable ear marks of pleasure part
les.
The excuses G i've by different
drivers were varied; some did not
know of the request, some knew OF
the request but were abroad on
business which served as an excuse
for pleasure jaunt and could have
been easily transacted on a secular
day, some considered the order as
not founded on good judgment and
rode regardless and some of course
were transacting business and were
not subject to criticism.
An analysis of the different classes
made by the excuses given exoner-
ates the first class, those who drove
in ignorance f the request, from
liability to criticism for last Sun
days driving but with w e s
publicity given the request no one
should offer that excuse next Sun
day; with reference to the second
class the request defines definitely
those lines Of business which serve
as a valid excuse for the consump-
ton of gasoline on Sunday and no
good citizen should seek an excuse
for pleasure riding in the transac-
ton Of business which could be done
on a secular day; in the third class
are those who placed their judg-
ment against the Judgment ola Fuel
Administration which is in posses
cion of all the facts and failure to
comply with the request by these
persons in time of war reflects SER
iously upon their citizenship. Those
in the third class and t h e who
rode in utter disregard of the re.
quest and with knowledge of it are
subject to the most severe criticism
and add one more branch to t h e
Stacker" category as outlined in
our article of two weeks ago.
Drivers should consider the in
fuence upon their neighbors; 1T is
hard for neighbor to sit at home
and see others going by in their
automobiles and this feature should
be considered in determining wheth-
er or not they will ride on Sunday.
The gasoline consumed by each
Individual is of little Importance but
the saving in the aggregate is enor-
NOUS and at time of this k n d
