ADVICE TO STEEN.

It has been reported that State Treasurer,
John Steen, is being urged to run for governor
against Lynn J. Frazier. We know John Steen
and that means we Ike him. We believe him
to be square and straight. Yet there ought to
be enough politician about him to see that, II ne
lets the bunch run him against Frazier he is buck
ing up against the very stone wall that won him
reelection when every chance was against him
and that is the second term idea. Frazier is due
for second term, just Steen was, in 1916. Let
Steen wait two years and we guarantee he will be
governor for the acknowledgements Broadaxe

of the whole war He had become
known now as one man who could
act impetuously and yet, strange as
the paradox may seem, always with
scientific calculation - with "clear
thinking impulsiveness," as one Brit
ish military observer of note put it.
AS taciturn as Joffre on occasions, he
showed always nervous dash and
headlong method of attack never OBJ
served in the more cautious but very
able Joffre.
He is credited with being nearer the
hearts of his fighting men and with
knowing more of their thought, their
desires, their most insignificant long
ings, than any man in France. And
although he never permits of familiar
ity that would endanger discipline he
has learned to know the heart of the
French soldier by mingling with them
in the trenches, talking to them at first
hand, being of them but always above
them.

For next week, Manager Nigge-

new to Shubert patrons, "The Gin

the play, with a run of a solid year

to do with the oft-repeated nursery

explains why he is cold and hungry.

what fear it is, and, let me tell you
this, and speak from some knowl-

my knowledge through letters going
to the wrong man, that is thing that
has happened before in Irish history.
Some of the letters-police letters
among them-fell into the wrong
hands lately in Ireland. The ranks
of Sim Fein are honeycombed with
police spies and police agents, and
some of the most violent men today
who are urging the people on against
the military-against the law-are in
the pay of the police for the purpose
of imposing military law ON the whole
country.

set your faces against this madness,

MEN OF DRAFT AGE MUST
CARRY REGISTRATION CARDS

The Department of Justice an
nounces that all men within the draft
age must carry registration cards al
ways on their person. Section 6 of
the Selective Draft Regulations makes
it is misdemeaner punishable by not
more than one year in prison and the
loss of other valuable privileges for
failure to carry this registration card
always on their person, and produce it
at the demand of any officer.
The raids conducted last Saturday
night in the pool rooms, dance halls
and other places of resort for young
men, disclosed the fact that many of
the draftees are neglecting this impor.
tant bit of regulations, and forget that
they are subject to military discipline

I'm thinking now of other days,
Mid scenes across the foam,
of mountain paths and woodland braes
Around my childhood's home,
And fancy pictures doubly sweet
To wearied Exile eyes,
The old matched cottage white and
neat,
Meath Erin's azure skies.
Chorus.
The lark his wild notes singing
Midst the purple boys hear;
A cailin's voice comes ringing
From the meadows, fresh and clear;
The ripping rill's soft murmuring
Where oft l passed along
hear in my day dreaming,
Sure, it's loves sweet, sweet old
song.
In spirit thus I wander DER
Each meadow path with joy,
And meet the dear old friends of yore
loved when but boy;
While memory's voice, enchanting
sweet,
Calls fore my tired eyes
That old matched cottage, white and
neat,
Meath Erin's azure skies.
