They line US up for Muster,
They line Us up for Pay;
We're lined up for Inspection,
We're lining up all day.
We line up when there's Roll Call,
For Chow, for Drill, to pray;
And sometimes they will line us up
just to see how we look that way.
They line us up for Guard Mount,
At Reveille Ito begin)
We line up when we draw out duds,
And when guy kicks in.
We line up ct the Canteen,
We line up for our mail,
We line up for our passes
As we do at some big sale.
They line US up at the Infirmary,
For innoculation and vaccination too,
We line up at fire call
And everything we do.
Wen be lined up forever
Until we pass away
And then youth hear some Johnnie

Revolution by Amendment.
(From the New York worldly

ktTOIu the NEW 1OTh NOIluJ
How many people in the states that
have ratified the national prohibition
amendment have given thought to
the inevitable effect of their action
upon the American system of govern
ment?
We have here dual sovereignty,
the nation supreme in it's sphere; the
states in their own. The most impor-
tant expression of home rule in the
states is that of police power. At
present the police powers of the Fed
eral Government are few, whereas
those OF the states are unlimited, be-
ing fundamental of their sovereignty
never yet surrendered to the nation.
Nobody has undertaken to define
what is called police power. In gem
eral terms it is the authority invoked
by self-governing peoples, for the
promotion of the public welfare.
Subject to constitutional restraint,
the police power Of states is exercised
for trivial as well as for momentous
causes 1t may be used to compel the
construction ola fence and again it
may be the sole means of protecting
life, health, morals and property, to
say nothing of liberty. Deprived Of
their power, American states may
easily become provinces or districts,
but they will not be self-governing in
any true sense.
AS the liquor traffic, like all other
social affairs, falls properly under this
power, the proposed amendment will
embody in the national Constitution a
principle in conflict with the basic
theory OF our Federal system. 1t is a
most emphatic denial Of local self

When the Yanks Came.


(From Rapid Fire, Aberdeen, Md.)
Sgt. Julius Voegtle, Co. B, Sd Anti
Aircraft, has sent the following poem,
copied from an English paper, that
reached him at the front:
Oh! the English and the Irish and the
'owling Scotties too,
The Canucks and the Australians
and airy French Poilu.
The thing that bothered us year be-
fore we knew
Was how in hell the Yanks would
look, and what in hell they'd do.
They hadn't had no training, they
didn't know the game,
They hadn't never marched it much
their shooting was the same
And the only thing that bothered us
that day in last July,
Was how in hell the line would hold
if they should run away.
Them leggy, nosey new ones just
come across the sea,
We couldn't help but wonder how in
hell their CUTS would be,
And the only thing that bothered US
in all our staggering ranks,
Was what in hell would happen when
the Huns would hit the Yanks.
My wordl it happened sudden when
the drive had first begun,
We see the "Yanksn q running
God Blimyi how they run!
But the only thing that bothered US
that saw the chase begin,
Was how in hell to stop 'em fore
they got into Berlin.
They didn't have no tactics, but the
bloody manual;
They hadn't learned no orders, but
20 my" and "give them hell"
But the only thing that bothered us
about them leggy lads,
Was how in hell to get the chow to
feed their Kamerads!
So when standing all together in q
stiffieh firing line,

If anyone should ask you, you can
sau uUa,ra doinor fro

say we're doing fine,
But the only thing that bothers us
and that don't bother much
Was how in hell to get the dirt to
bury all the ''Dutch."
Gods truth! it's rotten fighting that
all our troops has seen,
The HUNS dirty player because
he's always been;
But the only thing that bothers us in
handing him our thanks,
Is how in hell we'd done it if it
weren't for the Yanks.
Oh, the English and the Irish and the
'owling Scotties too,
The Canucks and the Australians,
and airy French Poilu,
The only thing that bothered US
don't bother US any more,
It's why in hell we didn't know the
Yankee lads before!

strain the rambling" dog, and no
doubt but that some measure will be
adopted with reference to the "sheep
killing" dog. have introduced 4
bills, amending certain statutes. /
shall devote my time to the correction
of existing laws, for I have long been
in favor of amending and perfecting
the laws we already have on the Stat
ute Books, rather than the enactment
of too many new laws. However,
desire to say, that l am heartily in
favor of the enactment of what is
known as'the "W orkmen's Compensa-
ton" measure, and the "Ohildren's
Code" already introduced in each
branch of the Assembly. I believe
that every boy and girl of school age,
ought to be in school each and every
day of the school term, till they have
completed the eighth grade, at least.
The State is responsible, in great
measure, for the kind and character
of its citizens. My experience as
teacher for ten years, and as lawyer
for as many years, cause me to believe
if we had a compulsory school law
that could and would be enforced, we
would have fewer criminals, for my
observation is, that the criminals do
not come, as a rule, from the educat-
ed class.
The restaurant in the Capitol Build
ing was opened for business to. day,
and it will fill long felt want, es-
pecially among the law makers. 1t
is certainly fine, and the prices charg-
ed are very reasonable.
The clerical force of the House is
larger by more than score, than it
was two years ago, when the House
was controlled by the Democrats.
1t is ridiculous, in my opinion, that
as many useless clerks and employees
are placed on the payroll. For in
stance, there have been placed on the
payroll of the House, twenty negroes
from St. Louis, l understand, as as
sistant door-keepers. There are three
main doors to the House chamber,
and two small doors leading to the
cloak room, and any person who has
not seen the new capitol would know
that so many assistant door keepers
would not be needed. They receive
SO. 80 per day while other parties who
are regularly employed about the cap
itol receive $500 per day. In my opin-
ion, rs or so clerks could do the work
and save thousands of dollars to the
state. The minority party is allowed
four pages and four stenographers, SO
you see we have most of our steno-
graphic work to do ourselves.
"Nepotism" is being practiced, so l
am told, among the majority party in
the House more than ever before, or
as much. am opposed TO THIS, ana
if I introduce any new measure, it
will be to prevent the placing on the
payroll relatives of the members of
the Assembly, and it ought to reach
every state and county officer, and l
have sometimes thought, School
Directors.
/ have written too much already,
and must close. 1 trust that every
citizen of Iron County will feel free
to write me about any legislation in
which they may be interested. 1t will
have my careful attention.
