Welcomes Conferences

Chairman Hitchcock of the senate foreign relations committee. expressed much qualification whens advised to- night of President Wilson's plans for consultation with the senate and house committees.
 'ln this matter, both democratic and republican members of the committee will be able to exchange views with the president" said MT. Hitchcock. He will come fresh from the scene. with impressions and. very probably, infor- nation which will be of immense value in consideration of the leagues con- stitution. I think the conference will be of great value"
 Senator Hitchcock said he was ready to meet the presidents request for postponement of discussion until after the White House conference. He said he knew of no plans by democratic senators to discuss the subject at pres ent.
 Democratic and republican leaders indicated that both patries were in clined to respect the presidents wishes in the matter of debate. although it was said some members might desire to express their views forthwith. IL had been thought there would be general discussion of the league. but only brief reference was made to it during consid- eration of the rivers and harbor bill.
 Lodge Grants Request Senator Lodge of Massachusetts. the republican leader, who will become chairman of the foreign relations con- mittee in the next congress, was looked to for an expression of his party's attitude, but declined to comment ex. plaining that he had not had time te study the details of the proposed con. stitution. Upon Senator Lodges re. quest, the text was put into the con. gressional record. The massachusetf, senator promptly agreed when Senate Pittman of Nevada asked that th, presidents address in presenting tn, document be included.
 outside of the chamber. many sena tors were as reticent on the subiec as they had been on the floor. but ther were number of expressions of ap proval from democrats.
 Reference to the league was made ol the floor of the senate during the da, by Senator Williams of Mississippi democrat, who said. while it had bee criticized as visionary. it appeared tn most practical thing to meet the situ ation.
 My quarrel with the proposed pla is that it does not go far enough" h added.
 Declaring that some sacrifices mus be made. he questioned the propriety C aiming general criticism at the presi dent in attacking the league.

WILSON ASKS CONGRESS TO
 WITHHOLD LEAGUE DEBATE,
Ca bles Committee That
 Every Word Has Meaning Suggests Conference At White House Dinner On Return-Hitc hcock Is Pleased-Lodge Gracious

WASHINGTON. Feb. 15.-President Wilson today cabled a request to the foreign relation committees of congress to defer debate on the constitution of the proposed league Of nations until he had an opportunity to go over 1t, article by article" with the members.
 '"Therc is a good and sufficient req son for the phraseology and substance of every article" declared the presi- dent in his message, transmitted through Secretary Tumulty.
 Members of the senate and house committee will dine at the White House on February 26. the day after the presi- dent is expected to land at Boston.
 This early meeting was interpreted as indicative of the presidents deter imitation to get the details of the new world federation for peace before con- gress as quickly as possible. The ca bled invitation did not name date for the conference, but almost immediately the time was announced. and this was taken to mean the president would proceed here direct from Boston after an address in that city.

THE FIRST three prominent head
lines of the Ashland Press Monday
told of different branches of labor in
that city being out on strike. The
strike bug seems to be prominent in
our sister city but when one stops to
investigate the demands of the men
are not the strikes justified? Over
at Odanah strike was started in the
mill of the Stearns Lumber company
by the teamsters, then the river men
followed suit and next came the
planning mill men. Now the mill
employees say if the demands of the
strikers are granted that they will
also refuse to go back unless given
a raise. 1t looks as if Stearns will
either have to raise the pay all around
or close down.

A GOOD many of the western
states have been hit by the re-
cent drought and crops have
been almost ruined. "A gentle
man from Montana was in the
city the past week and stated
that the drought was the worst
that has hit that country in
thirty years and the sight OF
Bayfield, county crops certainly
opened his eyes. In Bayfield,
county droughts are unheard OF
there is no such thing as hot
winds and hail to destroy crops,
there is plenty OF grass the sea
son around and crop failures are
unheard of. Oh but when you
come to think of it isn't this a
grand country to live in.

the buying power of the dollar has
shrunk to less than fifty cents, is
it any wonder that men are dissatis
fed with their present rate OF pay.
The last great strike called is the
railway shopworkers numbering more
than $50, 700 smen. These men
were promised additional pay by the
Railroad administration but the
money has not been Forthcoming and
the men have become dissatisfied.
They refuse to longer wait for an adj
justment of their differences. The
democratic administration is having
hard job trying to pacify labor with
promises while the price of every
thing which labor has to buy is al
lowed to soar. Labor is going to
have something to say when the next
general election rolls around and
they are not going to pin their faith
on democratic promises any longer.

COULDN'T EAT PET
Children Baked at Idea of Max
ing Meal of "Jerry."
Outspoken Revolt at Dinner Table Re-
suited in Neighbors Having Poetic
Revenge and Enjoying Dainty
Dish Of Roast Pig.

A well-known physician in town has
family of small children who are
crazy about animals, and every stray
dog or cat is always sure of good
home If they happen TO wander near
the doctors spacious residence. In
deed, the doctor calls his home the
Zoo Annex" for it harbors not only
dogs and cats galore, but three cana
ries, two white mice, five pigeons, one
conversational and profane parrot and
a brown squirrel, so an animal or two
more doesn't count.
Somebody gave the children a baby
pig, a nice little pink-and-white pig
with funny little squinty eyes and a
cute little curl to its tail.
The children were wild with Joy over
their new pet, and installed it in the
laundry, but evidently the little pig
didn't adapt himself to his surround
ings, and persisted In staying up late
nights and giving voice to such lugu-
brious lamentations that the doctor
christened him Jeremiah" This name
was toe long for the children to man.
age, 50 they called him Jerry and loved
him to death.
Jerry grew so fat he could hardly
waddle, but he was great fun and frOl-
licked with the youngsters and had a
grand time, and ever his squeal had a
Joyous note In 1t by day, but once night
fell Jerry seemed to grow so low In his
mind that he refused to be comforted.
and his tones were as shrill and pierre
ing as banshee's.
He grew 80 big that lie looked like
young mountain lion In the arms Of the
children. and occasionally he would es-
cape to the front Of the house and wad-
ding up the steps, would lie
down and drop into slumber, so that
visiting patients had to fall over OF
step over the reclining Terry. Then
to add to the general discomfort his
squeals grew deeper, like unto the vo-
call efforts of basso profundo, so
the doctor, losing all patience, de-
clared that Jerry must pass on and
pass out. So one day when his
children were In school Jerry took his
first automobile ride, ending up at the
butchers, who had orders to return
Jerry right side up with care, ready
for the oven and the Sunday dinner.
The children, In ignorance of this
foul deed, searched high and low for
the missing pig. but he couldn't be
found. and after weeping violently for

WE want to give the present

WE want to give the present
County Highway Committee and
the Highway Commissioners
credit for having a lot Of good
sense. They do not try to de-
ceive themselves into believing
that a piece of machinery is a
good thing when it is not, but it
is not hit and miss guess with
them for they have proven be-
fore hand that they are right.
When the present committee
took hold of the highway work
in Bayfield, county the county
was possessed with three trac-
tors. purchased year before
at a good figure. but which
proved to be a failure so far as
the county road work was con-
cerned. The committee con-
vinced themselves by actual
trial that the tractors we're not
what the county should have and
now after convincing themselves
they are going to auction off this
machinery to the highest bidder
and the day Of the auction has
been set for August 18th. at ten
O'Clock in the forenoon, at the
county tool house at Washburn.
These tractors are too light
for heavy grading and too heavy
for light work and some farmer
in the county is going to benefit
by the former com mittee's mis-.
take by purchasing tractors at
their own figure, The tractors
are all right for general farm
work but not what the county
wants.
We believe the committee have
acted wisely in getting what
they can out Of this machinery
and we believe they will be wise
enough to determine what they
are getting the next time some
some salesman tries to work off
wha5 he has to sell unto the
county. You are on the right
track boys.

Explaining New Stars.

The mystery of new stars, which
flash into view for few days and
may spread outward thousands of
miles a second, remains one of the
greatest problems of the heavens. DR..
J. Bosler of the Meudon observatory
finds that the sudden appearance of
the nova is opposed to any theory of
radioactiyity, and that the brief dura-
ton ard relative frequence make 1t
unlikely that the phenomenon is Gua
to direct collision of tw dark stars.
The idea of Seeliger that dark or
faint star passes through an obscure
nebulous cloud seems to fit better. If
this is the cause the heating effects
must be superficial, as In the case Of
a meteor In the earth's atmosphere,
and the observed spectroscopic changes
can be clearly explained.

Gambling Spirit Strong.

Mazarin's passion for gambling was

a large table with his great courtiers
and other dissolute persons and with
