Here is the enemy of government employees
This man, with distorted sense of justice,
would force an eight-hour day on workers for the
government with utter disregard to the view of
President Wilson, the advice OF the Council of
National Defense and the principles established by
the National War Labor Board.
The Council OF National Defense, with the ap-
proval of the President. during the early portion
OF the war announced as its view that the hours
OF labor should not be increased and that there
should be other disturbance of existing standards
OF labor until after full investigation and recon-
mcndation by the Council OF National Defense.
Mr.. Borland, by his legislation has not only
violated this principle OF fairness but will actually
reduce the rate OF pay OF thousands OF government
employees when every other concern in the country
is being forced by the governments own labor
administrative organs to increase wages.
What IS Mr.. Borland's idea?
For two years he has been fighting for an eight
hour day. Atcr numerous defeats nc has finally
succeeded. Such persistence must surely have
some goal
II his motive is political say that this is
no time for politics. Yet how many OF our Sena-
tors and Representatives have veiled themselves in
the gusc OF patriotism for political aggrandize-
mcnt
Were Mr. Borland's efforts superirduced solely
by the desire for political prefermcnt in that he
hopes to profit by the enactment of such legislation
before his constituents having been instrumental
in securing legislation which will reduce expendi-
lures OF the government approximately SIoyooo,ooo
year?
If such is Mr. Bor1ands idea he will some day
be disappointed man. As a matter OF fact, no
reduction in expenditures whatever is contemplated
or probable on account OF such legislation.
Fortunately President Wilson is vested with
the power OF veto.

The EXPLANATION.

The conversation at a social affair turned TO the
thoughtess mista kes that occasionally makes,
when the following incident was contributed by
Congressman Samuel E. Winslow of Massachu-
setts:
Recently it was noticed that an engaged coupIc
were acting rather distandy toward each other and
eventually it became known that the bridegroom-to-
be had been given back his ring
Il am awfully sorry to hear that you and Adele
have quarrelled, old man." sympathetcally remark
ed friend What in the world is the matter?"
:. Nothing very much" responded the Tilted one,
disconsolately. "She got peevish because / stole
a kiss"
Great Scott" was the amazed rejoinder of the
other. y ou don't mean tosay that she objected
TO one little kiss from the man she was going
to marry?" eOs
That's the trouble, explained the Tilted one.

Our Responsibility.

1t Is cca- that Americas vital role in the war Is
not to be PLAYED the Western front alone.
President Wilson has assumed allied leadership
in regard to Russia 1t is his nov. AMI his will is
law No man in the world will envy him the
burden he has taken on his shoulders. Certainly
no statesman in London or Paris will care to re-
lieve him OF it.
The United States. in large sense, has taken
Russia under her wing and is today debating
allied policy in regard to that distracted nation
That policy today has no positive values it is en-
tirely negative. What the President has done sc
lar is to block Japanese intervention in Siberia
In the words OF the Philadelphia Public Ledger:
When the announcement came from Tokyo
within the last forty-eight hours that Japan
had definitely decided against military inter-
vcntion in Russia, thus turning from the
counsels OF the entente powers to deter to the
wishes of the government OF the United
States the world gained some insight into
the weight Of responsibility that rests today
upon the shoulders of President Wilson.
to this nation to determine the course of ac-
tion which shall be followed by the allies in
= dealing with the intricate and vital prob
lem caused by the Russian overthrow and the
Russian chaos. For it is thoroughly appre-
ciated now, except apparently by those who
have been most clamorous for decisive
ures to create anew an Eastern front" that
one false step by the friends of Russia would
convert the Russians into foes and tighten
forging Tor her PROSTATE eastern neighbor
% and erstwhie foe.
Tremendous pressure has been brought to
bear for immediate intervention by way OF
Siberia, mainly by the military forces of
Japan, backed up by the moral support OF
the allies Advocated originally by England
and France the campaign to bring about the
adoption OF this policy has been fierce and
determined Powerful influences from
end to the other of this country en-
listed in the of meeting German ag-
gression-material and physical-by the sin
gle weapon OF physical force Even the name
OF Gen. Foch was dragged into the discus
sion, and his voice and arguments were ex-
pected to clear away all remaining doubts in
the mind of the President and win that as
sent which has thus far been the sole re-
straining had upon the leash which held back
the great adventure across Siberia. ...
Here, then, is what the President has done
played lone hand against London and Paris, held
back Japanese intervention in the Russian situa-
ton, aud made decision of historical Importance
ION his own'-just as he did with Mexico five
years ago.
The entire liberal world thanks him, although,
pretends to know whether from the point
OF view Of real politics. the Presidents policy is

FIT FOR A KING.

By the intensive employment of some 300 workers the Presidential quarters on the George Washington, formerly of the North German Lloyd were placed in fit condition to re- ceive their august guest. Mir. Will sons suite of rooms was done in darl; mahogany and grey, while in Mrs. Wilson's apartments pink was made the dominant color with the mahog- any. The entire main deck was glass ed in that the rigors of North Allan tic breezes might not penetrate and inflame the presidential throat. Of course the fitting up of this ocean White House for a few days occu- pancy by Mir. Wilson cost sum of money. But what of that? We are in the midst of big sale of war sav- ings stamps, and it will take only a few thousand of them to pay for the improvements.

Since the arlnistice we have noted tendency on the part of certain per sons to claim all or the lions share of credit for the victory over the com mon foe for this, that or the other AL ly, according to the writr's or speak. CTS nationality.
 We suppose that this is the psycho- logical time for this particular species of fool to afflict an already sorely tried world. We further suppose that a certain number of equally loose thinkers will be more or less influ- enced by the utterances of the claim alls, and that these two classes of humans will attract to themselves about the same attention that a pick pocket gains in a company of honest men.
 In other words, for a time these impolitic people may, and probably will, cause a feeling of resentment in some quarters. But the great com nonsense majority of the Allied peo- pies will always remember (and glad ly give credit accordingly that the war was won by all of the Allies fighting as one great Army of Lib erty.-Stars and Stripes.

POLITICS AND GROCERIES.

Arizona not only needs lot of commercial development, but she needs some political developing as we'll. It begins to look as though DO. litical development should come first in order that there may be "some works instead of so many fine speeches" In this day and age of the world if the man who is supposed to represent the people, cannot deliver the goods, and the people still keel him on the job representing" then the people are properly represented and the majority should be thus rep resented. Politics is a great old game, "but man must vote his party ticket" Just think what might hap pen if man was elected from the op- position who also happened to be not only competent but efficient.
 Just think what would happen if people voted like they bought dry goods and groceries-not like they buy tickets to a sideshow.
