CHAMP CLARK SCORES
HOUSE REPUBLICANS

Aptly referring to the Republl-
can party as a concentrated
growl," Champ Clark, Democrat
ic leader, flayed the carping crit
les of President Wilson in spir-
tied speech in the House of Rep
resentatives during debate over
the veto of the sundry civil SER
vice appropriation bill because of
the inadequate amount apportion-
ed for the vocational training of
disabled American soldiers. 1t
was noticeable that the remain
der of the debate was barren of
presidential criticism; moreover.
the appropriation for the soldiers
was raised from cix to fourteen
million dollars thru Democratic
insistence.
81 have not always agreed with
President Wilson," said Mr.. Clark.
"and l never do agree with every
thing that any man who ever liv-
ed does, and never will. When l
have differed with him l have
come out into the open and fought
like man, taking all the slander
lies and filth which editors, hop
ing for some reward, could heap
on me. l have not sidled in and
out as the gentleman from Wyom-
ing (Mondeli, Republican floor
leader) and his followers are do
ing.
"Certsinly the great Republi-
can party does not propose to re-
duce itself simply to a concen-
trated growl? But that is exact
ly what you are doing. The whole
speech Of the gentleman from
Wyoming was nothing but a growl
and he is getting to be the great
est growler on the American con-
tinent, bar none.
Anybody can find fault. That
is one of the easiest performances
known among men. Any plug can
go out with an ordinary telescope
and find spots on the sun. They
are there; they have always been
and always will be; but notwith-
standing the spots the sun con-
tinues to warm and light and
fructify the world. You can talk
all you please about the spots on
the present president of the Unit
ed States, but Notwithstanding.
the fact stands forth that by the
verdict of the civilized world he is
the foremost man in all the world.
He needs no eulogy. AS Daniel
Webster said about Massachu-
sets, There she stands and you
can judge for yourselves and
there is not a man in the House
who has any respect for his own
reputation, both for intelligence
and veracity, not single one, who
will deny that by the universal
suffrage of America he stands at
the top of the heap"

EVOLUTION
(Mel Euwell)

Evolution is the nifty branch of
speculative science which en-
deavors to explain how we got our
start as tadpoles in a pond and
eventually reach the stage of
NUTS as we are today. Darwin
is often mentioned as the high
brow who perpetuated the scandal
on the unsuspecting public, but in
reality the chap who did it was
named Lamack. Man is mystery
to everybody, including himself.
In the museum at Paris they have
the ascent of man laid out in pro-
gressive order from the single
cell stage on thru fish, quadruped,
monkey and missing link, to man,
but what puzzles the locker on is
how the various steps got tired of
being what they were and decided
that they should take cores
pondence course and be some
thing else.
Mr.. De Vries, a Teuton special
list of some note before the war.
claimed that it was done by muta-
ton, that is, they got hep to their
ambition and simply leaped
across the chasm of their desires.
This sounds all right, but what
worries us low brows is why the
links of evolution don't do some
jumping now.
The high brow explains this
question by simply stating that it
takes a billion or two years for a
single jump and none of us want
to stick around that long to see
whether it is so or not. For these
reasons, evolution doesn't go as
big as it used to go when it was
first dished out for the popular
mentality. We all believe, more
or less, in moral evolution, but
when it comes to physical evolu-
tion we stub our toes every time
we start to try and go somewhere.
Even the evolutionist has scratch
ed his bean bald headed trying to
make two and two behave like
they were five instead of like they
were four. That is the reason
in the refrigerator to cool off be-
fore further manipulation. AS
Josh Billings said about some
kinds of truths: at is all right
if it wasn't for the fact that there
is so much of it what amt So"

"Love ever lifts the common
place into grandeur: It trans
forms everything it touches. 1t
blesses the lover and his beloved.
1t changes the sex relations of
savagery into the homes of civ
ilization. Like redeeming angel,
it moves among the marts of men
and touches busy citizens here
and there till they forget them
, selves in patriotism and philan-
throphy. 1t has set up crosses in
men who scoffed at sacrifice. 1t
has kindled compassion in the
weakest and meanest of mankind.
1t has brought hope to the most
forlorn and shone its star in the
darkest nights despair. 1t has
broken down the barriers of man
kind, enlarged the boundaries of
human feeling and brotherhood,
and stimulated every larger and
richer impulse and hope in the
world. Love alone awakens the
harp of life into living music. 1t
is the only wealth which never
curses, the only beauty which
never fades, the only strength
which cannot be frightened by
the grave. Love exalts and i'm
mortalizes the commonest things
of life"

SEASONABLE SONG

like to talk of Christmas time,
along in mid-July; l like to speak
of cold and rime, snow falling
from the sky; like to tell of San
ia Claus, the dearest fake that
ever was, the most alluring guy. l
seem to see the crowded stores,
where eager shoppers swarm, and
tho outside tempest roars, in
there it's bright and warm; and l
behold the weary clerks who cuss
old Santa and his works and clam
or for reform. And l forgot the
summer heat, the weather that's
crime, while dreaming of the
crowded street at merry Christ
mas time; see the wreaths of ev-
ergreen, with holly berries strewn
between, and hear the glad bells
chime. The stormy clouds by
winds are rolled across the win
try sky; and tingling shoppers
cuss the cold and wish it were
July; "Ah, me-" they sigh, chow
fine 'twould be to sit beneath a
streaming tree, and simmer, bake
and fry!" see the children with
their sleds upon the cleaning
snow; and soon, to divers little
beds in ecstacy they'll go, to
dream of Kringle and his pack, of
reindeer on their shining track,
fine presents to bestow. And
dreaming thus of Christmas day.
the anguish in me dies; if dreams
will drive ones grief away, hold
that dreams are wise; and l look
blandly at the sun, and smile a
few, and take a gun, and shoot a
dozen fiies.-Walt Mason.

HOW WORLDS THINK
In ERS MIGHT HAVE
RENEFITEn nv TYPENRITER

HOW WORLDS IdiNN-
AOV ERS MIGHT HAVE
BENEFITED BY TYPEWRITER
"A contributor to one of the
current magazines deplores the
fact that Benjamin Franklin
had no typewriter. He says, and
truthfully, that II the great man
had not been compelled to use a
pen and pencil, he could have
accomplished much more than
he did-a statement that is so
obvious 1t is hardly worth quot
ing. The same thing can be said
of all other great men-Of Wash
ington and Jefferson and all the
rest. They accomplished much;
they left greater volume Of
writing than men do In the days
of the typewriter. But the fact
remains that with typewriter
any man can accomplish about
four times as much as he could
accomplish with pen and ink
in the way Of recording his
thoughts. If he sees fit to do so.
But the contributor overlooks
one thing, namely, that the
matter of writing 1t down is not
all of thinkers work, observes
Columbus Dispatch. If Frank
lin had had a typewriter, he
would not have been hammer
ing it all the time. 1t would
have aided him greatly; he
would have had more time in
which to do his thinking; he
would not have had to spend so
much time over a desk scrawling
with poor pen. But 1t is de-
batable whether he would have
actually produced more litera-
ture than he did.
Charles Dickens wrote all of
his novels with quill. He could
have done the writing in half
the time on a typewriter, and
the printers would have saved
half their time. But in these
days Of the typewriter we have
no novelists who are turning out
good literature any more rapidly
than Dickens did.
Thomas Jefferson left a whole
library of his writing-and he
wrote with a primitive pen. So,
L.
the greatest of time savers, while
it gives an increased product,
and more easily read product,
the fact is that the men of to-
day are not doing any more
writing than was done when the
matter had to be scratched upon
a sheet of paper with a stick
or quill.

New Form of City Government

Richmond has taken great interest in the
proposed legislation to enable municipalities to
adopt commission or manager form OF govern
ment in place of the present system. The South
ard BILL pending in the general assembly, provides
a method whereby cities may avail themselves OF
improved forms of city government.
The measure has not received careful analysis
by authorities city government, but the gen
eral principle which would enable city to adopt
either the manager of commission form OF gov
eminent is sound in its basic features. Almost
every progressive citizen will subscribe to the
principle
Citizens should make careful study not only
Of the Southland bill but also of the general prin-
ciple of the new forms of municipal government.
The day is rapidly approaching when scientific
administration of municipal affairs will be in
order. Richmond should be ready to act intelli-
gently on the legislation.
