PRESIDENT WILSON'S POLITICS.

We have looked in vain in the
columns of Republican newspapers
for protests against the action of the
President in urging the Democrats
of Minnesota to support Senator Mel
son, a Republican, for reelection
which WaXed indignant at what they
termed 'partlsanship' when the
president advocated the election of
Davies, the Democratic candidate IN
the recent Wisconsin vote. would also
resent this other suggestion from Nh.
Wilson in regard to Senator Nelson.
But strange to say, they have not let
a peep" out Of them. We wonder
also what they will have to say to
the action of the Democratic State
Committee in Minnesota, which, III
view of the Presidents attitude to-
ward Senator Nelson, has decided not
to nominate any candidate to oppose
tho latter. In our opinion the Presl-
dent deserves great credit for his de-
can in the election of men to the
House or the Senate, who will be
sure to support the Government in
its war measures, whether they are
Republicans or Democrats. Mr.. Will
son did not advocate the election of
Mr.. Davies, BECAUSE, the latter is a
Democrat. neither does he desire to
see Senator Nelson returned to office
BECAUSE he happens to be a Re
publican. What the President does
want is to assure the Administration
that it will be backed up by a loyal
Congress composed of men who place
the welfare of the nation above party
aspirations. We think that if the
President we're to express himself as
did Governor HOlcomb recently he
TOO, would hear a nation wide
Amen to the now famous phrase
Damn politics."

was getting back to the Navy Yard

bottoms were drained. Water poured,
then dribbled out of the flooded

thinned to brownsh drops a wiry

came six more crabs. even fatter.
A mud -splattered negro in the dock

imprisoned by the mat. He took

Boycott the Food Profiteer.
Waterbury Democracy.

War has been declared upon retail
ers of foodstuffs who exact excessive
profits for their goods. The food ad-
ministration. which is going ham
mer and tongs" fashion after the
''gouging" retailer has appealed to
consumers everywhere to aid the duly
authorized agents of the government
in protecting the American pocket
book from extortion.
State administrators have been ad-
monished to make a thorough can
NaSs of all localities in their states
and round up retail dealers who
charge more than a fair price on
necessary foods. Administrator Hoov-
er stated that househ olders in every
community will be relied upon to re-
port either to their state food con-
trollers or to the food administration
in Washingtn fragrant cases of prof
iteering. IT has been made plain by
Mr.. Hoover that hardened violators,
who persist in these practices, after
they have been warned. will be cut
off from further supplies of basic
foods now being handled under the
license syston>. Wholesalers and
jobbers will be instructed not to sell
to such offenders. Right here in
Waterbury there is enough food prof
iteerlng to close UP half the local re-
tailcrs if the truth OF the matter were
known In Washington. For example
the price of turkeys for Thanksgiv-
ing has already been set, in some
cases as high as siXty-seven cents
pound. However we have reason to
believe that this little extortion coup
is going to be nipped in the bud in
Waterbury by the shipment into one
wholesaler of enough turkeys to al
most supply the entire city at about
half that price. However. even if
this cannot be done. why is it neces-
sary to eat turkey on Thanksgiving
The only remedy for high prices is
for the people to boycott the article |

PEACE OF JUSTICE,

that to speak of German JUSTICE is to
be adsurdly paradoxical. The peace
which will bring this war to an end
must be, then, an Allied peace. die

at heart the safety of the world Such
a peace, by which is guaranteed to
small nations the same rights of self
development and government as the
large ones, will be truly permanent

ITALIAN TROOPS IN FRANCO.

AT the moment when the battle in
Picardy is raging hottest, when the
Teuton hosts arc striving to roll back
the Allied lines, when French, Amer
lean, British, Belgian and Portugese
heroes are fighting with valor and
stubborness unequalled in the annals
Of history, comes the announcement
from Italy's prime minister that that
country'S soldiers are being de-
spatched with all possible haste to
join their comrades in their struggle
to the death with the Hun. A more
lifting time for such action could
hardly have been chosen. The sons
of Italy, inspired by the magnificent
defense their Allies have put I'D dur
ing the past weeks against tremen-
dous odds, are no longer able to re-
main at home to guard their own
borders. but are anxiousIy hurrving
to the battlofields Of France and
Flanders to fight shoulder to shout
Ger with their comrades in arms.
Thus will Italy prove to the world
that the fight of her Allies is indeed
her fight, and that regardless Of
whether the battlefield be within her
troops will always be found where
the cause of Liberty is being Defend

TODAY'S TABLOID TALE

The objectionable Sin.
Excepting Il very few high
German military officials, the
suicide of General Deutsch-
sprecken is still shrouded in
deepest mystery. In todays4
story the general public will,
for the first time, share the
peculiar secret.
For two weeks the Germans
had been bombarding the little
Belgian town of Allumette.
