Perfectly Plain.

ut is perfectly PLAIN you cannot go
on increasing taxation on the neces-
saries and comforts of life,' says Mr..
Asquith In these words Great Bri-
tain's former prime minister express
es what possibly millions Of people
have been thinking concerning the
latest development in the industrial
situation. Labor has laid down its
demands in unmistakable terms, and
these can be summed up in the phrase,
"a better standard Of living" To at
tain that standard, something more
is needed than the raising Of wages.
To replace the deficit consequent upon
higher pay by substituting higher
costs or increased taxation does not
meet the issue, and it is for that reas-
on that too much emphasis cannot be
placed upon Mr.. Asquith's statement.
"A better standard Of living is demand
ed by the workers, and it is upon the
fu1fillment Of that demand that the
Industrial peace Of the future depends.

Senate Doing Its DUTY.


True to its traditions, the United
States senate is steadfastly perform
ing the functions for which it was
intended by our wise forefathers. It
was conceived as check upon hasty
and ill-advised legislation, as bar
to dangerous executive appointments,
and as a preventive against entering
into improper treaties whereby true
Americanism might be compromised
or sacrificed. In all it's history, no mat
ter what it's political complexion, the
senate has been stabilizer in times
of national stress. And so today, that
dignified body, properly ignoring criti-
cism and complaint, is proceeding
with it's consideration of the peace
treaty and with it's dissection Of the
covenant of the league of nations. 1t
is for the welfare Of the American
people that the senate has refused. to
be driven into any hastily considered
action on such momentous question,
no matter what the final result may
be. It stands today an mistaken de-
tense against rash experiments in
government, and is our chief bulwark
against that anarchy which is stalk
ing abroad in the world. Columbus

Williams Disgraceful Tactics.

The publication of the bitter anti
Irish speech of Senator John Sharpe
Williams, democrat, of Mississippi, in
the Congressional Record four days af-
ter it's delivery on the senate floor, has
added new interest to this remarka-
BILE affair because of the notable diff
ference between the printed speech
and the spoken version as heard by
those who were in the senate chamber
at the time. 1t also differs widely
from the stenographic report taken
by the official reporters Of the senate,
who are experts in their line, and most
of whom have spent the greater part
of their life in their present positions.
1t is customary for senators to make
slight corrections in these stem
ographic reports as changes
in grammer and punctuation but it
has never been considered their priv
ilege to make essential alterations in
their remarks without the consent
Of the senate. This fact gives added
interest to the great discrepancy be-
tween Senator Williams speech as
it was originally recorded, as it was
published in the leading newspapers
and as it eventually appeared in
print.
The Congressional Record shows
that Senator Williams passed the
following reflection upon the part Of
the Irish in the civil war:
AS matter Of fact, Of course, the
Irish never whipped the south at all
They could not whip the south any
where at any time They have always
commended that they have done every.
thing, everywhere, at every time"
It is here that notable omission
occurs, as shown by the original
transcript. Between the second and
third lines Of the paragraph Senator
Williams appears also to have said:
1T is q part Of the braggart nature
Of the Irish" Further along. ii the
same paragraph, the printed speech
omits the following declarations 81
the democratic statesman:
~ am tired Of this business. y T am
tired Of this vanity and nonsense.

Our Halloween Party.-The Hal
lowe'en party which was given by the
juniors for the freshmen and the facul-
ty on Friday night was decided sue
cess. AS the freshmen and teachers
entered they were seized by ghost on
either hand and ushered into dimly
lighted room, the doors Of which were
guarded by tall, stately ghosts which
readily suggested the spookiness of
Halloween, and here they were kept
until time for initiation. The sopho-
mores considered themselves lucky to
have escaped this part of the program
and the sedate tell that they have al
ready passed through the trying or
deal Of freshmen; consequently our
spooks ushered them to the auditor
ium, which was very appropriately
decorated and lighted by jock-o-lan-
terms only. Perhaps the boys enjoyed
themselves mostly in trying to find
their girls and thereby often courted
the wrong one. Everyone seemed to
enjoy themselves as good deal of
laughing was done during the "catch
a train" contest and peanut and marsh
mallow races. Mr.. Hall, who was one
of the contestants in "catch train,'
made long run through the halls.
In spite of the fact he was awarded one
of the first prizes. Evidently Mr..
Hall is a good runner. You should
have seen the contestants chewing a
two-yard string to get m.rshmallow.
Mrs. Stroeter was too busy watching
and laughing at the others so she for
got to chew her string, and her OPP
ponent, Byron Hannay got the marsh
mallow. Delicious refreshments were
served and Of course eaten. The jun
>iors who removed the sad remains of
this great feast on Saturday morning,
also consumed a gallon of ice cream
which was left from the previous
evening. Judging by that the juniors
not only worked hard in preparing this
party but also worked hard removing
the remains.

Clipped From Our Dumb Animals.
It is not only the suffering Of the
animal that we are trying to prevent,
it is also the moral degradation Of the
person who causes this suffering. It
is the ignorant person who is cruel to
animals. ~,
Why say to a cruel, heartless man,
you beast?" Beasts could not. If
they would, sink to the levels to which
men descend. Some beast, however,
outraged at the conduct of his fellow
animal, might well express his con-
tempt, if he could, by crying out, .'You
mani" ,Es
There is an old saying to the effect
that when the foot Of a horse is gone
there is no horse left. This is true
since horse is unfit for labor if he
cannot walk. Hence the Importance
Of giving careful attention to the
horses hoofs and going to the shoe
shop whenever horse gives signs Of
distress.
A teacher in Syracuse said: "Noth-
ing ever helped me so much to manage
these rough boys as teaching kindness
to animals In two large cities have
tough" districts been civilized by the
same means. Any teacher can in a
weekly talk Of five minutes, impress
upon pupils the rights Of animals and
the duty and advantage Of kind meth
DDS in using them. Why not do 50?
A child that is cruel to animals, dis
dainful Of their sufferings when in pur-
suit Of his pleasure, cannot be trusted
to be kind to younger sister, weak
er companion, or valued pet. Cruel.
ty is vice of the bascst and most
cowardlya mark of the savage and

this, not only in her prccepts, but in
the example she gives her children.

Judge Bryson had him bested when
the cards were played in police court.
The four aces that Molisse held were
found on his person when he was
searched in the police station after
being arrested on a charge of being
~disorderly, and the judge knew before
hand what he held, so that gave him
an advantage.

judge. II hold a straight flush and
