During a call at the Fastje Music

what was the most popular song to-

standing did the same. Their is no

Des Moines Capital: Governor Hard
ing, as temporary chairman (of the
republican state convention), made
the strongest speech he has yet made
He kept the delegates on tiptOe. His
speech was partisan, as was expected
but it was patriotic, without any quail
ifications. The governor pledged ev'
erything Iowa had to the winning OF
the war. He claimed many glories
for the republican party and proved
his claims to the satisfaction of those
who heard him. Republicans had not
heard republican speech for so long
they were not sure how it would
Sound.

HOW TO HANG A FLAG.

Every so often one hears a discus
sion of what is the correct way to
have the American flag hanging
When it is hanging lengthwise up and
down in window or on a wall it
should always have the starry field
of blue on the upper right hand cor
ner when looked at from the street
or the room as the case may be. IT
is safe guess that not over half OF
the flags so hung in town are cor
rectly placed.

DENVER, Dec. 24.-Inheritance tax collections on $320, 900 worth of Liberty bonds of the estate of Mrs. Aline Ma thilde Julia Gardener, who died recent ly in New Mexico, are the subject of controversy between officials of New Mexico and Colorado. The bonds were deposited by Mrs. Gardener in Denver banks, while on her way from Bar celona, Spein, to New Mexico, where she intended to make her home. The inheritance tax amounts to $13,100.
 Joseph E. Wilson of Albuquerque, executor, today entered into stipu- lation with the office of attorney gen. cral of Colorado, whereby the matter is to be tested in New MeXico's courts. Under this arrangements all the bonds were turned over to the eXecutor yes terday and all cash except S20,000, which will be held pending settlement of the controversy.
 New Mexican officials say the wom- an did not intend to make her home in Colorado and that she deposited the bonds and money with the inten- ton of later withdrawing the deposits.
 She was the widow of Domian Car doner of Barcelona, wealthy Spaniard. The fact that she was wealthy was unknown to friends in New Mexico. The estate, it was an- nounced tonight. totals $46l,332

 He will come" the Times adds, "at a critical period in our history. We have now to win peace and peace will not be won for this country or the world, unless it is based on the warm, active friendship of the two great English speaking nations.
 History never repeats itself, least wise in the same form; but our states men, American and British, now have the power to remake the destinies of the English speaking peoples; to re- mold them as they might have been molded if the two nations had parted not in anger, but in amity and good fellowship.
 There are many bonds of fellowship between us, but next to common lan- guage. is the joint possession of our common law. We are attempting to turn aspirations and international jurisprudence into genuine operative international law, and to endow it with sanctions like those of municipal laws. without the active good fellowship of England and America, it simply cannot | be done.
 Common In Many Ways we alone speak the common idiom or law, We only have It in us to trans late political ideas into the form of international legislation and only our cordial friendship can give this legis- lation the sanction necessary to give it validity.

 If President Wilson has great | popular following in Europe, it is be- cause he expressed this ideal of future | international relations with the great est clearness and force.

 But it is not of those alone that I would speak, when 1 speak of the de- votion that has carried you and your army to such triumphant success. I think with sadness and pride of those who have paid the last full measure of their devotions; and of weeping American wives and mothers and mourning children. I have no doubt that many and many a gallant Ameri- can soldier has, in his last breath, coupled with other names dear to him, your name, as the custodian and guar dian of American honor and glory honor and glory so dear to him, that for them he gave his life.
 Just as it is our president who hands to you this medal, so I seem to see from these thousands of glorious graves, pale hands reaching out to you and your comrades the laurel wreath of victory which they did so much to win.
