the president had no power to dis
solve the parliament, and that 1t was
dissolved unconstitutionally in 1917
as in 1914. The northern group, which
is now in control of the government,
holds on the other hand that as par
Lament did not discharge its duties
satisfactorily, and as the constitution
does not expressly prohibit the disco
luton of q parliament by the presi-
dent, he may exercise the right IL he
deems it necessary.
AS the time for electing a new
president approaches, however, the
question Of paramount Importance
seems to be getting the right men in
parliament for the election. China's
entrance into the war has taught her
that she must think and act in nation
al terms if she is to be an effective
ally. and she is anxious to have a
governing body composed of men fit
to deal with national issues. y
The election of the new parliament
was originally scheduled for June 10
but it is thought that it will not now
be completed before the end Of Aug
ust. On assembling. the election Of
the new president will Immediately
take place. the inauguration to fol-
low on October IL. j.
Indications are that the principal
candidates for the Office of president
will be Feng Kuo-chahg, acting pres
identsS Tuan .Chi-jui. premier; Hsu
S~hih-chang. who has held many Inn
portant government positions and is q
leader OF the official classes, and Lu
~Yung-ting, a southern general OF
great influence.

A CANADIAN CANNING PLAN

Following the publication of an. article in these col
umns on community canning, there came to the editorial
desk an article describing a method which has been en-
ployed in Saskatoon, sask, for the saving of labor and
expense in canning, and which is said to be giving good
results. The plan is described as follows:
With the assistance Of two home economic experts
from the provincial university and the department Of ag-
riculture, several hundred women belonging to the
Daughters of the Empire are operating a community
canning kitchen in Saskatoon. Tons OF %perishable veg
etables and fruits raised by the municipal parks board,
the Rotary club and other civic organizations to reduce
the city's consumption Of foodstuffs required overseas
are being preserved, for distribution along with lac
quantities of potatoes, turnips, carrots and other vege-
tables stored in the city's root houses for sale at a NOM
inal charge during the winter.
1.-THE project was endorsed by the city council which
gave the use Of q large. curling rink adjacent to the nu-
tnicipal power house, granted permission to use the ex-
haust steam from the power plant, and allowing $500 for
the purchase Of canning apparatus. One Of the features
is a playground at the rink for children to amuse them
selves while their mothers are canning the family. supply
OF winter sweets and srsens''

ldence. Some special In

thing more than mere coincidence. Some special in
fuence was at work.
One influence was the circulation IN the German
districts Of the report that II John steen were elected
governor a deliberate systam Of persecution Of those
who speak the German language would be undertaken,
that the circulation Of papers printed in German would
be prohibited. and that German could neither be taught
or spoken in. public or private schools, ana that the use
of that language in religious services would be pro-,
hibited. t
AS to the manner in which the German; vote was
cast, tho record is there and it is conclusive. AS to the
circulation Of these rulnors which were intended to in
Huence the vote. there is the evidence Of printed cir
cuplars which were freely circulated in the German dis
tricts, as we'll as abundant evidence of the spreading Of
these statements by word Of mouth. knowledge Of the
circulation Of these false reports came too late for them
to be contradicted effectively, and the record Of the vote
cast shows that they had their eneo.
No such plans as those indicated were ever contem-
plated by Mr.. Steen or those who supported him, and
the men who met recently at Minot and endorsed the
candidacy Of Mr.. Doyle for governor have placed them
selves on record as endorsing the attitude Of President
Wilson in regard to these matters, and as holding, fur

BAKER TELLS LAWMAKERS
YOUNG MEN WILL WIN WAR
End Of Conflict Will Depend Upon
Throwing of Resources in Fighting
Area in Great Quantities.

Washington, April 24.-"Men of &C.
tion-younger men"-are needed for
America to win the war.
This was the belief expressed by
Secretary OF War Baker to members
of the house military committee. He
added that his experiences and OBJ
servations while abroad convinced him
that the success of the war depends
on young rather than old men.
A most promising picture Of the
vast preparations the United States
is making in France for the fighting
men sums up the secretary's talk be-
fore the committee.
Our storage facilities over there"
he said, "if lined up would be build
ing so feet wide and 200 miles long
practically the distance between Wash
ington and New York" Baker said.
The artillery and aviation schools
the United States has established in
France are absolutely the finest in the
world and have won the admiration
of our allies, Baker declaI ed. Amer
lean artillery and aviation will be two
of the leading factors in winning the
war, he predicted.
Although very optimistic over the
general situation, Baker emphasized
that the end of the war probably will
depend upon the throwing of American
resOurces-both men and supplies-in
the fighting area in great quantities.
"He made it clear" said Represent
ative Kahn, that America must de-
liver great big punch before the war
is over"
"These crucial times have failed to
shake the firm belief of every allied
statesman and military man as to the
final outcome" Baker said before the
executive session.
Members of the committee were
plainly pleased with Bakers report.
"The keynote of the secretary's re-
view is that there are no pessimists
over there" said Representative An

dent that victory will come to the al
lies. according to Mr.. Baker"

NURSES DOING NOBLE WORK.
Bright Spot in SaVaqery Of War To-
day Is the Effort Toward Re-
lief of Suffering.

What a flood of light Sir Evelyn
Wood throws on pre-Nightingale days
in his story of being savagely beaten
on the face during Crimean days,
while lying in hospital with both hip
bones through the skin. Sarah Camp
found her way to the Crimean front
in spite of the Lady of the Lamp, and
into Sir Evelyn's dormitory. She was
the highest yet" before Florence
Nightingale took matters in hand. Lady
PalmerSton thought the Sarah Camps
good, and If they did drink-well, so
did the ladies' nurses, land nothing
could be better for them poor people"
War is more terrible now than in Sir
Evelyn's day, but mercy and science
march hand in hand to the relief OF
suffering, and he may well be an opti-
mist. The Crimea established the Brit
ish as leaders Of the world IN medi-
cine, surgery, nursing and hygiene.
Out of this modern agony new ameli-
orative triumphs emerge. And splen--
did girls of gentle blood who toll I'M
noted all day in military hospitals or

fort Of travelling soldiers mad sailors,

u. S. MEN WIN IN
RAID NEAR VERDUN
Attack Made Near the Heights of the
Meuse-TWo Missing Yankees
Found.

With the French Army in France
April 27.-American troops Sunday
made a successful trench raid near the
heights of the Mouse, in the vicinity of
Vaux-les-Palameix Con the front below
Verdun, nine miles north of st. Mi
hief). Their French comrades har-
assed the enemy in the same way at
number of places in Lorraine and in
the VOSges.
The sector along which the Germans
made heavy attack against the Amer
leans is situated among very broken,
billy country, about II miles eastward
Of the important st. Mihiel salient on
the road between st. Pizier and Metz.
The town Of Seicheprey is surrounded
by hills about 800 feet high.
The line of the allies passes 1000
yards north of Seicheprey and few
hundred yards from the edge of Rem
neres wood The Germans were able
to seize this wood and a strip OF
ground 1000 yards long and half mile
wide lying west of the wood, on Sat
urday morning and the attack on the
American sector in the vicinity of
Seicheprey was a sequel to this ac-
ton.
With the American Army in France,
April 27--Two American soldiers,
wounded in the engagement around
Seicheprey, were found alive in dug
out in mo Mans Land" The dugOut
had been badly smashed by German
shellfire and how the men managed
to keep alive in the rain and mud and
under continuous German lombard
ments, physicians say, is little short of
miraculous.
Another soldier, Raymond Demun-
sky of New Haven, Conn, was buried
alive for three days when he crawled
to the surface Demunsky was born
in Russia, but had been naturalized.
He was found by American Red Cross
stretcher bearers, who went out into
"NO Mans Land" in the morning. The
Germans fired on the Red Cross flag,
but the stretcher bearers kept waving
it and the enemy's fire stopped.
The American troops in the Seiche-
prey fight, additional details show,
were outnumbered in some instances
eight to one. The latest reports are
that the American casualties are
much under the first estimates.
