There is nothing in the constitu-

vent the President from going beyond
the boundaries of the country. No
President, however, had departed
from the custom of remaining within

Cleveland, who was fond of the

GOOD TRAINING ~

Building Telephone Lines
in Fire District.

Soldiers in training for the army
signal corps at the University of Min
nesota are obtaining some practical
experience in building telephone lines
'under adverse conditions in the area
around Duluth recently devastated by
forest fires, when telephone lines and
other property Of the Northwestern
Telephone Exchange company, VALUED
at 100000, were destroyed.
Skilled Men Gone.
The loss Of a large number Of
skilled maintenance and construction
men from the telephone" company
who have entered military service has
been felt in this emergency, but army
officials are cooperating with the
telephone people to aid in restoring
communication promptly and at the
same time giving the soldiers in train
ing some practical experience.
Army officials elsewhere are work
ing with the telephone companies in
meeting emergency conditions. Ir,
Nebraska a recent sleet storm broke
off over 500 poles on the transconti-
mental telephone line and a detail of
signal corps men from Fort Omaha
was sent out to help restore service.

TT WAS VERY FUNNY.

Three ministers were arrested at a
prayer meeting in Los Angeles when
about to discuss the danger of the
militarist spirit in our churches.
After being held in. Jail for three
months, during which time they lost
their churches and contracted disease
from the filthy. pen, they were
brought into court They had been
charged with the remarkable offense
of intending to say things that might
cause some patriotic citizen to assault
them. But the prosecuting attorney
admitted that he had no lawful
charge and that his indictment was
the only way he had to get them. The
judges of the supreme court then
laughed heartily and dismissed the
case. 1t was very funny, and the
| ministers probably enjoyed this prac-
tical joke too.
In San Francisco Tom Mooney was
sentenced to be hung on perjured
testimony AND labor is supposed to
| like it. In Minnesota a governor
won denomination through false
indictments, and organized farmers
! are supposed to like it. No harm
was meant-just little fun with
labor and the farmers. It's the new
style in American jokes. The COM
mon people are a little dull and slow
in appreciation that's all. If they
can't see the joke, why, they can
leave the country: "She's all right,
just as she is," the best people, who
are entitled to an opinion, declare.

Employment Service Places

Developed Ability.

The United States employment serv.
ice not only helps o woman to find a.
job, but in many cases the service
helps woman to find herself. The
average woman who has never earned
a dollar in her life is very often under
the impression she is not Qualified for
any vocation, yet she may have had
real training. Here is case in point.
A woman of refinement called at a.
United States employment Office in
New York city, said she had no quail
ifications, had never earned money,
and asked for suggestions on what
kind Of training to take. The examiner
in charge questioned the woman very
carefully and discovered she had done
considerable research work in the last
four years on some important law
cases for her husband and had also
done a great deal of statistical work
for him. The examiner found the
applicant a. place at 800 a month
doing statistical work. In short
time the woman was promoted to a
$1,000 a year job. In less than a year
this woman qualified so successfully
she is now holding down a $4,000 job.

THE ANvIL.CHORUs LEADER.

If Mr.. Roosevelt has not exploded
about something or other in connec-
ton with the terms of the armistice,
before this goes to press, we admon-
ish our readers to be patient little
longer. Either the terms of Foch
will not be sufficiently drastic or
President Wilson will spoil the broth,
or something else will happen to give
the bombastic colonel of the Rough
Riders an excuse to beat the air and
otherwise promote his candidacy for
1920.s
We thought for a while that the
News Tribune had found the excuse
for the expected Rooseveltian out
burst when it opined that John J.
Pershing might make as good a
preside mt as he has made a general -
Perhaps General Pershing is due to
get his from the colonel next. Who
can tell? Pershing is said to be a
Republican and, therefore, extremely
dangerous--to Roosevelt.
Just little more patience, dear
reader. The irrespressible colonel
will be heard from soon, and he will
run true to form.

to change it's mind. Two or three
billions Topped Off OF war profits
taxation will be a handsome return
for the few millions spent in the elec-

Rockefeller, can make on a straight
Oil selling proposition---200 or 500
per cent.
AS usual the big papers missed t1is

cent election hinged on the ''loyalty"
issue. Isn't it funny the way the

Of big deal like this until it was
