SUPPOSE.

Some prominent advocates OF the
League OF Nations go so far as to
characterize those opposing the adop-
tion OF the league plan as given out
by Pres Wilson as small reactionary
or dishonest OF purpose. That is not
a fair statement and we are surprised
that so broadguaged a man as ex-
President Taft has shown himself to
be on the other occasions should In
this case deny 10 others the right to
analyze the proposal on all sides
One clause OF the proposed agree
ment says that the boundaries of all
nations to the pact when fixed by the
peace conference shall be guaranteed
for all time. Perhaps we, I'm our
small way, haven't grasped the full
meaning OF that paragraph. Anyway
we are led TO do some supposlng.
Suppose that this league had been
in existence in 1916. what would have
happened to George Washington and
the other leaders who gave the world
IFS first and greatest democracy? Sup
pose that the pact had been in effect
in 1898 when, through pure generos
ity and for humanitarian purposes
we went to the aid OF stricken Cuba
what would have happened?
Suppose that Il had been In effec
when President Monroe gave the no
'tice to the European nations which
we call the Monroe doctrine"
These are all logical suppositlons

SHOULDER ARMS AT GEM.

Charles Chaplin in Shoulder Arms"
will be shown at the Gem theater on
March LIST. This is his second million
dollar picture made for the First Ma
tional Exhibitors Circuit, is clever
intermingling of augh-provoking bur
lesque on trench life with deft touch
es of the drama and pathos of war
Taking the ludicrous happenings in
the life of the average doughboy as
the embellishing action, the famous
comedian has injected into the story
OF shoulder Arms" an occasional
suggestion OF the tragedy and grief
OF war in the devastated portions OF
Northern France. This makes an un-
usual combination in Chaplin come
dy portrayal. and serves to heighten
the effect OF the humorous situations.
The story pictured in Shoulder
Arms" takes Charlie through all OF
the training experiences OF a recruit
and then shows him in first line
trench, prepared for action with an
armament by which he could be mis-
taken for a soldiers cook, chamber
maid. a milkman, a valet, or plumb
er This equipment constitutes his
idea OF what doughboy should have
and doesn't get He is prepared for
every exigency, from cooties and rats
to the flooding OF his dugout.

Let's see. Away along in the early
years OF this nations history a man
gave utterance to this sentiment, "My
country, may she ever be right; but,
right or wrong. My Countryl" That

has been generally accepted as a

THE LEAGUE OF NATIONS.

There is very great sentiment
here for an association which will
iavC a tendency, at least, to put a
stop TO wars and the American peo-
PIE will gladly assume their share
OF the responsibility OF SO deporting
themselves as a member OF that asso-
citation as 10 remove the cause OF war,
However, It is a project in which
haste will be made slowly. The aver
age man isn't sufficiently versed in
all the intricacies OF European diplo-
macy to have very decided opinion
as 20 tust what is best for us TO do.
He does know that to surrender any
Of the sovereignty OF this nation, is
like signing deed OF ones home to
ones step-son; it's mighty hazardous,
and well think 1t over quite a
while before we sign.
The underlying desire in every
American heart Is to let others enjoy
the right or life, liberty and happiness
and to have them accord to us the
same rlsht We balk at mixing in the
affairs OF Europe We feel that IL is
our work 10 care for our hemisphere
and that the fellow across the water

from The known to the unknown and

of ideal.sm upon which President viii
son has set bis heart to their breasts
as their own without first looking on
all sides OF ii and then taking time tc
consider II is too deep question for
the average man to solve of hand.
Some there are who would oppose
any scheme that the president might
father because they don't like Wilson
others wouldn't approve Of II because
the democratic party fathers It. Thos,
reasons are neither valid nor sensible
They ought not cut any figure. How,

month or two ago meeting of
the republican state central commit
tee was held and columns were writ
ten about the affair. We were told as

at the intimation that the expenditures
in the Newberry campaign were not

OF the house OF representatives at
Lansing took up the cudgel In de-
fense OF those expenditures, etc, etc.
all calculated to give out the impress
sion that the republicans OF Michigan
had given the stamp OF legitimacy TO
those acts. But, last week a republi-
can convention said just as little as
IL could upon the subject and neatly
camouflaged what IL did say by refer
ring to the expenditures as necessary
TO counteract the influence of the best
advertised man in America, forget
ting all the time that the expenditures

all. Evidently there were some in

chief interest was not legitimizing

We have seen and heard some harsh
criticisms made by the rabid advocates
OF the proposed league of nations of
those who question It, and, so far,
most OF them have been made by that
band OF gatriots whose favorite an
them in 1914 was, IL Didn't Raise My
Boy to be a Soldier" Now one of
the sections of the constitution OF the
proposed league makes 1t mandatory
upon this nation, II called upon, to
lend hand in policing the refractory
nations. Suppose Turkey is given us

who didn't raise boys to be soldiers
are raising them to police Turkey
We suppose that they expect George

Passed Sixty Billion Mark.

1t is safe to say that the annual
yearly shipments from the Superior
district have passed the sixty million
ton mark yearly. The amount will
undoubtedly increase much beyond
that figure but will not again fall be-
low that amount. IL the iron trade
had TO depend upon Michigan for it,
entire supply the known ore would be
swallowed up in less than two years
and the known and expected ore
would all be mined and shipped in
four years.
So, that isn't SO much OF margin
after all. Michigan ships annually
in the neighborhood OF 100000 tons.
At that rate the known ore reserves
in this state will have been shipped
away inside OF one decade
or course, the big bulk OF the ore
comes from the Mesabi range and
there are vast stores OF II there, but
at the rate OF forty-five million tons
per year shipments from that range
ten years will make big hole in what
is there. and the limits OF the Mesabi
! range are well known.

Standard Coming Down.

But, there isn't any danger OF the
Superior district running dry OF iron
ore-not for longs long time. The
reason is that by the lowering OF the
standard which has been going on
right along, a greatly extended lot of
iron stone is made available. We
are putting ore on our waste dumps
that the Europeans would melt up. We
simply haven't got down that far yet,
but we are coming to 1t, perhaps. with

Take the low grade ores of the Me-
nominee range in the vicinity of Iron

of iron stone in the hills of that sec
tion that will be mined yet. They are
OF no value today. Iron county has

Attention Turned TO Separating.

The fore runner OF the coming into
use OF the low grade material is the
effort which is increasing on every
hand 10 rid iron stone of its impurities
and thus save the freight and extra
fluXing material and extra fuel neces-
sary to get rid OF it at the furnace.
The first effort in this line was the
washing of the fine ores on the west
ern end OF the Mesabi range. Mil
lions OF dollars have been spent in
erecting washing plants and millions
of tons OF ore made available as n
result The process is no longer an
experiment. The experience of the
operators in Kidding this ore OF its
dross has encouraged others to expert
ment along the same or different
lines-in concentration, in drying and
in roasting.
Concentration OF the low grade
ores OF the east is now being proposed
on quite an extensive scale and Il is
expected that when the process Is
perfected on the ores lying close to
the manufacturing centers, II will be
applied to ores that can be handled

court yesterday for three lists of

timony was taken elsewhere than in

Physicians have learned from ex-

ant factors in the prevention of hu

active so that the digestive organs
may be in perfect working order and
the system thereby enabled to throw

sist serious complications. For this
purpose they have found that the
new. nausealess calomel tablets called
Calotabs, are far more effective even
than the old style calomel which was
formerly the universal favorite, as
Calotzbs do not weaken the patient
nor interfere with the appetite and
digestion
At the first sign OF cold or sore
throat, doctors recommend one Cal
otab at bed time with a swallow of
water-that's all No salts. no nau-
