The deportation of more than 5000
interned aliens, regarded by officials
of the Government as highly unde-
sirable, will be possible under legis-
lation passed without a record vote
by the House last week. The aliens
include DR.. Carl Muck, formerly di-
rector of the Boston Symphony Or
chestra, who prior to his internment
refused to have the "Star-Spangled
Banner" played by his orchestra. In
all there are sI7 of the aliens who,
unless the bill passed by the House
becomes law before the treaty of
peace is ratified, must be released.
They are informed at Forts Ogle-
thorpe, Ga, and Douglas, Utah, and
are considered as proper subjects for
deportation, but cannot be sent from
the country under present laws.

Calls Halt to Hun Acts.

Paris, July 3o.-Premier Clemen-
ceau, as president of the Peace Con-
terence. sent letter today to the
German peace delegation protesting
against the action of Germany in sell
ing national properties in Schleswig,
in which plebiscites are to be taken
for decision by the population as to

Indemnity and that the Peace Con-
ference would hold Germany respon-
sible for the proceeds of such sales.

Then And Now.

Fhe following comparative prices
on cattle, hogs, and farm produce are
taken from the 20 years ago column
of the Adrian Journal. In looking
over the two lists one would be led
to suppose that the farmers would
have all of the money that there is in
a short time. But one must consid-
er that the farmer is paying $500 per
day for hands to care for his crop
and twenty years ago he could get
all of the hands that he needed at
about $I.oo per day, and that is about
the proportion that he is compelled
TO pay for all that he buys. He is
making good money, but he is not
getting all of the high prices by q

THOSE WHO DO NOT LEARN

More than year ago young man,
then about 20 years old, was sentenced
to year in a state institution on the
charge of burglary. A few days ago
he was caught after entering a home
In that city the night before. The first
arrest, the first sentence, did not cure
him of the ways of the criminal. What
should be done with such a person
In the first instance he did not learn
that burglary does not pay. Most
people are sorry when a young person
is arrested for a crime, but what else
can the authorities do? Here is a case
where the young man should have
known better, but failed to see that
ne would be tripped if he tried again.
The way Of an honest life is some
times harsh existence, but it pays in
the end to walk Alright.

It has been long, hard fight, but
keeping everlastingly at it brings sue
cess. Susan B. Anthony, almost hall
a century ago, went alone into the
United States senate and asked that
bill be introduced that would give
to the women of this country equality
at the polls. The whiskey interests
and few others have opposed the
movement all the way along, and with
the going of booze the women are
coming into their rights. The people
of the south oppose the cause on the
ground they do not want the southern
women at the polls, but this will avail
them little. The states will ratify
the amendment and no doubt by 1920
the women of America will have equal
rights at the polls.

MANY VICTORY
GARDENS GROW

About 500 school or victory gardens
are flourishing in Baraboo. These
gardens are being cultivated by the
boys and girls of the upper grades. 1t
is part of the course, and due credit
will be given to all who agitate the
hoe. But few have been exempt by
Superintendent Kingsford because OF
illness or for other reasons. Not only
will the gardens supply much food, but
the pupils will become acquainted with
Mr. Radish, Mr. Tomato, Mr.. Cabbage
and others of the garden family in a
real way 1t was found that some had
no idea of seed or how plants really
grow. The campaign has used up all
the available vacant lots as we'll as
land owned by the city for garden pur-
poses. The value of the products wilr
amount to great deal and they
will be sold or paid for by the fam
lilies. Next fall there will be an ex-
hibit of the flowers and vegetables
grown, suitable prizes being awarded
to the winners. There should be some
person at this season of the year de-
voting his whole time to advising and
inspecting, but E. H. Hawkins is do
ing what he can
The demand for tomato plants for
these 500 gardens was so great it al
most made famine in this particular
plant.
