COUNTRY GETTING TIRED OF
PUERILE WORD TRICKS

Mr.. Wilson's talk about Ireland
getting relief from the League of Ma
tons is purely humbug, whether con-
scious or visionary. There is no pro-
vision in the League Covenant for an
appeal by a province or section of
any member-nation directed against
such nation to any branch of the
League. There is a provision by
which member of the League may
introduce the case of a non-member,
but assuming that Ireland could get
some Government-Japan, for in
stance-to raise the question of her
future, Great Britain would reply at
once that Ireland was a non-member
but was part of a member. viz. of
Great Britain herself, and could be
represented only by the regular Brit
ish plenipotentiaries.
But if in spite of this protest the
League Council or Assembly insisted
on hearing the Irish plea and assum-
ing that Great Britain consented to
sit in and listen, of what use would
any majority decision be to Ireland?
1t is Mr.. Wilson himself who insists
that maiorties count for nothing in
the League. Every conclusion must
be unanimous to be effective. Any
Power may by its sole, single vote
veto the action of all the rest.
This is the reason why Mr.. Wilson
tells the people of the United States
that they can safely accept the HUI
initiation of Great Britain having six
votes in the League while this coun
try has only one. He asks us to con-
slider that this country can control
the Leagues action by it's one vote,
yet Ireland can get justice or indie
pendence in spite of highlands six
Can fatuous false pretence go fur
Their?
Americans, naturally, are forced
to ask, in view of Mr.. Wilson's latest
bid for class vote, whether Porto
Rico and Hawaii and the Philippines
can also bring the desire of some of
their inhabitants for separation from
the United States before the League,
and secure hearing and decree in
their favor under Article XI. Or is
the League sort of double back-ac
ton" affair. as Sam Weller used to
say, which works one way in one case
and another way in another case,
according as it suits Mr.. Wilson's
convenience?
Really the country is tired of such
puerile juggling with words.

TO BREAK WORLD HEART
A RHETORICAL TRAGEDY
So Says Senator Warren G. Harding
Who Voices League Opposition

If the Senate should break the heart
of the world in rejecting the peace
treaty in the exact form which it was
presented for its consideration, it
would cause arhetorical tragedy alone,
according to Senator Warren G. Hard
ing, of Ohio. OF the League he said,
as member of the Foreign Relations
Committee:
1t is my deliberate conviction that
the league of nations covenant, at
Versailles, either creates super-gov-
eminent of the nations which enter it
or it will prove the colossal disap-
pointment of the ages. Though it
would be vastly more serious as the
former, | can not believe this Re-
public ought to sanction it in either
case. Why proclaim a promise that
will embitter the worlds disappoint-
ment?
Let US note, first, the probability of
disappointment. Does it effect dis
armament? The member nations de-
eide for themselves the necessary size
OF their armed forces, which are not
to be increased except with the
leagues approval. Of course there is
to be studied recommendation for re-
duction, but any two powers in con-
certed action may reject the entire
program. Who has heard of a pro-
posed elimination of the great British
Navy, which hold Great Britain's un-
disputed mistress of the worlds seas
Few will question Great Britian's wis
dom in her well-known attitude.
Surely no British subject will question
it. She has an empire to defend and a
commerce to guard, without which
England's glory is at an end.
Only a few days ago the cabled
news told us that France will main
tain a larger army than that Republic
possessed when she entered the World
War. Doubtless Frances security de-
mands it. in spite of the negotiated al
lance which calls the United States
and Great Britain to her aid in case of
renewed German assault. We know
little about Japan, but we do know
that Japan may fix her own limitations
as to army and navy, taking into ac-
count geographical conditions and ma
tional safety" until under this treaty
we give our sons and our resources
to the enforcement of international
agreement by common action under
articles and 10.
Is disarmament looming as a hope
realized? Look for an instant at
home. With the league confidently
expected, with all its blessings of
peace, limited only by "interpreta-
tons" we are contemplating an army
of half million, seven times our
previous establishment in peace.

UNSELFISHNESS.

Unselfsh hearts shall honors great
receive,
Yet humbly and with kindly hearts
shall they
Bestow the honor on their parents and
friends,
And thoughtful e'er of God who
lead their way.
They never boast, though great
heights they attain,
But trusting in their Pilot greater
still
Twas God, they say, who guided their
way;
They were but faithful to His will
Unselfish hearts are beautiful. are
great,
And blessed fore'er, for in their
humble way
They look to God in faith for strength
To live their steadfast life and wav.

"In regard to the amendments gen.
orally" says Senator Lodge, sit should
be stated at the outset that nothing is
more groundless than the sedulously
cultivated and constantly expressed
fear that textual amendments would
require summoning of the peace con-
ference and thereby cause great de-
lay. There will be no necessity of
summoning the peace conference be-
cause it is now in session in Paris,
with delegates fully representing all
the signatory powers. as it has been
for six months, and as it is likely to
be for six months more"

cat this moment" says Senator
Lodge, "the United States is free from
entanglements or obligations which
legally or in the name of honor would
compel her to do anything contrary to
the dictates of conscience or to free
dom and the interests of the American
people. This is the hour when we can
say precisely what we will do and ex-
actly what we will not do, and no man
can ever question our good faith if we
speak now. When we are once caught
in the meshes of the treaty of alliance
or league of nations composed of &c
other powers our freedom of action is
gone"

''In view of the fact that six months

If interest in Milwaukee.


The fair this year was the best ever
held, in agricultural and stock dis
plays. There were 1868 head of cattle
with one shorthorn bull alone weigh
ing 3015 pounds. Races, aeroplane
flights and the battle of Chateau
Thierry furnished the main attrac-
tions.
There were club teams from all
parts of the State, putting on Various
kinds of demonstrations. In the elm
nation contest, Ellsworth won first
lplace in dyeing, New Richmond in
canning, Bayfield, in potatoes and Fort
Atkinson in poultry. In the final con-
test, the winners of which go to Sioux
City Iowa, to compete in the Inter
State contests, Ellsworth took the
| honors. Every boy and girl of the
State of Wisconsin should take advan-
| tage of the great opportunities offered
them in club work. There are not only
the chances of winning the prizes
offered, but also of seeing the State
Fair, which is one of the great educa-
tional features in the state. The boys
and girls exhibits at the State Fair,
showed their increasing interest in
club work This shows that boy or
girl will take more interest in what
| they raise themselves and can claim
as the result Of their efforts.

The Pioneer Poultry Club Returns

The Pioneer Poultry Club Returns
From State Fair.
The Pioneer Poultry Club returned
Sunday morning from the State Fair
held at Milwaukee.
At the State Fair we gave poultry
delousing demonstration, which was
the last of four demonstrations given
by our team
Our team was made up of Rudolph
Hansen, Chester Cooklar, and Edwin
Sagen, and was trained and managed
by Mr.. Madden, the local club leader.
We were rather handicapped by. a
short training period, but still we did
not come out at the short end of the
Contest
Rudolph Hansen took up the gener-
al Importance of combating mites and
lice, and was followed by Edwin Sagen
giving classification of mites and
lice, comparison of mites and lice,
|
ton of applying various means of con-
troll. Chester Cooklar followed with
a talk and demonstration on keeping
the chicken quarters free from mites
and lice.
The first demonstration we gave
was held at the Farmers picnic at
Kinney's Grove At this demonstration
the chicken which was used, ran away
and as it was so easily caught and
handled, someone made the remark
that it was trained. While giving the
demonstration at the Ashland County
fair, we acquired the name of chicken
doctors" Our last demonstration be-
fore leaving for the State Fair, was
given before the Washburn High
School agricultural club.
Our trip to the State Fair was one
of interest and education from start
to finish. We made the Boys and girls
camp which was directed by the Y.
nj. =. A., our headquarters. There
were about three hundred in this camp
from various parts of the State. One
large tent servd as a dining room,
while we had two large tents for
sleeping quarters. The boisterousness
of Rudolph Hansen and Edwin Sagen
kept Mr.. Madden, and many others,
from getting a full nights sleep. Meal
time was one round of laughter, and
jokes, from start to finish, as the
camp director saw to it that not a
single minute passed without some
form of merrymaking. One night was
set aside as "stunt night" and each
group or table put on a stunt, from a
song to first class vaudeville act

SALOON MEN who had an idea
that war time prohibition did
not amount to much are not as
confident as they used to be and
some of them who since July Isl
have been selling what is known
as 275 beer are endeavoring to
get out Of the business as quiet
~ as possible until there is some
decision in the matter. fearing
that government officials may
get them for violation of the war
time prohibition act.
The action of the Wisconsin
Legislature in passing a bill
permitting the sale of beer and
wines with alcohol content of
not more than 275 as a non-in
toxicating drink, has com piicated,
matters somewhat for it was IN
direct contradiction of the gov
eminent ruling which was to
effect that no drink having more
than $ alcoholic content should
be sold as beverage.
Over in Ashland the saloon
men were rejoicing over the fact
that the City Council in
tended to grant licenses for the
sale of 2.75 per cent beer upon
the payment of license fee of
$3.50 but when it was learned
that they would be required
to put up a bond as in fcr-
mer years and that the city
would only issue 3 receipt for
the money and not regular
license, then some of them be-
came doubtful. One bonding
company which has been doing
large business in Ashland III
former years by going on the
saloon mems bonds this year
instructed it's local agent not to
accept applications for bonds.
while attorneys have notified
clients that the taking out Of a
city license was no protection
however in case of prosecutions.
Ia many places, however. sa-
looms continue to operate and
the government continues to
make arrests and the outcome
is being watched with keen in
