A Short Creed.

The League of Nations cove
nant, which is a tumble of 50,-
900 words providing mostly that
the United States will assist Eu-
ropean countries in fighting their
battles and furnish the money to
pay the bills, would have been a
more acceptable document if Mr..
Wilson would have let the cove
nant be drafted by j. S. Bache,
a New York banker. He has
given the matter considerable
study. and he gives out a shorter
creed for a league to prevent
war with two clauses as follows:
"All war except in the defen-
sive, is illegal, and an interna-
tional code shall be drawn up in
every way qualifying what a de-
fensive war means. j."
"The punishment for violation
of the first clause should mean
death to those making the de-
claration or affixing their sigma
lures thereto. "
According to the banker these
two clauses are all sufficient tc
maintain a world peace, except
the adoption of a few rules reg.
ulating the methods of trial o1
| the criminals.

are away on the summer vaca-

If President Wilson had re-
mained at home, and selected
five commissioners from the re-
publican and democratic ranks to
draw the treaty and League of
Nations covenant which is now
before the people, we doubt not
that only a small per cent of the
people of this country would be
in favor of it's adoption. But
with Mr.. Wilson as the titular
head of the democratic party,
party loyalty is more the moving
spirit in urging it's adoption than
Americanism. 1t is about time
the American people should learn
that party loyalty is not as es-
sential as strict adherence tC
some religious faith that promis-
es eternal glory in the hereafter
as a reward. The professional
politician who is looking for some
office is expected to heartily en-
dorse everything the party does
or advocates, but the rank and
file should exercise a little indie.

In the matter of the adjust
ment of water rates which will
come up before the commission

lose sight of the fact that the

reasonable dividends on it's In

Just as much interested in the
maintenance of the trees and
lawns as any other good citizen,
and cooperate to that end. The
present minimum rate is $1.75
for 30OO gallons, and II rate OF
S1.OO for the next 1000 was es-
tablished, that would furnish all
the water necessary for ordinary
domestic uses of the average
family. Water used in excess of
5000 is clearly for irrigating the
trees and lawns, and this should
be furnished at a rate not to ex-
ceed zoe per 1000 gallons. If
necessary to prevent imposition
on the company, have this spec
ial rate apply from April to Oc-
tober. If this matter is taken
up in a spirit of amity with the

results will follow.

WASHINGTON, Feb. 3.-Major Cen
eral Enoch Crowder will be reap
pointed army judge advocate general,
Intinations that he was to be
shelved were dissipated today when
lit was learned on reliable authority
that President Wilson will again name
him for the post.
Crowder's friends were doubtful as
to his re-appointment until today.
Some of them claimed that he would
automatically go out Of the service If
not renominated before February 10.
They feared that what amounted to
bad blood between him and Chief OF
Staff March would operate to side
track him.
They declared privately that many
obstacles had been put in the way
Of the man, who made the draft ma
chine an admitted success. They
claimed, too, that a reprimand from
the chief of staff still lay against
Crowder's record. Whether or not
this is true, the war department has
refused to allow his record to be
made public. Secretary of War Baker
and Chief of Staff March have con-
isistently declined to discuss the re-
port, while Crowder's friends have
accused Baker privately, of failing to
act to clean the record after promis-
ing to do so.
However, President Wilson does
not intend to let army politics or
feuds stand in the way, it was stated
today He will rename Crowder as
chief legal authority of the war de-

BIG FUNERAL OF
NICHOLAS BYRNE
The obsequies at Mount Sterling
were Impressive and Partici-
pated in by Many
Associates.

A correspondent at Mount Ster-
ling, Illinois, gives the following ac-
count of the impressive funeral of
Conductor Nicholas Byrne, of Keo-
kuk, who fell dead on his train at
Carthage last week:
The remains of Nicholas Byrne
were brought here Thursday night
from Clayton and taken to the home
OF his sister, Mrs. Patrick McEntee,
in the north part of town, where
they were viewed by many of the
friends of the deceased.
The funeral services were held Fri
day morning from st. Mary's church
with services in charge of Fir. T. j..
Carroll and interment in the Cath
Ole cemetery.
A carload of the members of the
Order of Railway Conductors, of
which Conductor Byrne was one of
the active members, arrived on the
S:43 a. M train and held their serv-
ices at the home of his sister, Mrs.
Patrick McEntee. The services were
very impressive. Mr. Byrne had been
a member of the order for many
years and always took an interest
in it. George Know, conductor of
the Springeld-Quincy run, arrived
Thursday afternoon to make the
necessary arrangements for services
to be conducted by the conductors.
Mr.. Byrne was also member of
the Knights Of Columbus and that
order turned out in full force to the
funeral as did many of his friends
from this city and other towns in
this part of the state, where he was
known to practically all the people
