SOME NEW VISITORS.

Tinker Bob walked leisurely
through the forest visiting one home
and then another to see if there
might be anything needed. Now and
then he noticed a track in the snow
which indicated that Sammy Squirrel
had been journeying recently \, from
one tree to the other. Then too he
saw signs Of O.. Possum's jaunting.
for there was q track In the snow
that looked much like the track Of
his own hand; Tinker Bob knew This
was the print of o. Possum's hind
foot. But he saw that this track was
old, perhaps made early the night be-
fore when o. Possun was searching
for food.
While Tinker Bob was. examining,
noise that sounded like the beating
TO a drum. He listened intently and
again he heard: 'aThump, !, thunip.
thump, ::thump.' He looked in the di
rection Of this sound but could see no
living thing. Again he heard .'Thump,
thump, thump," then a sound like a
kettle-drum: "Rup. rup. rup, rup. rup,
rup, rup, rup, r-r-r-r-r-r-r."
This seemed very strange indeed to
the King, for he had never heard
sound such as this in all Of his forest
life. He walked quietly in the direc-
tiQn from which the sound came. He
had not gotten far before it was re-
peated. This time his eye caught a
glimpse Of a peculiar creature stand,
ing on q log.

Dr. Edwards Olive Tablets are the

these tablets "a vegetable compound

They do all the good that calomel

WHY NOT?

Why not raise an increased part of the
enormous revenue which we need from
an increase in the tariff on foreign goods?
This is the richest nation on earth and
why should not the people of foreign
nations pay for the privilege of trading
in our markets and carrying off our cash?
Our own merchants have a first right to
our markets. They pay taxes. They
are of our own people. They spend a
part if not all their profits for food, cloth
ing. etc, right here at home. A foreign
resident whether he be merchant, crafts
man or laborer, pays no taxes here, either
municipal, state or national. He does not
employ any of our friends. He does not
deposit in our banks, nor does he spend
here penny for his own or his family's
support. There is neither reason nor
equity in allowing him to sell his goods
here, unless he pays and pays well for the
privileges. Whenever one finds pros
porous home market for American-made
goods he will find prosperous workmen.
Goods made in Germany or any other
foreign country will never, in the max
ing, add one penny to the pay roll of our
own workers.

A VALUABLE FLOUR SACK.

The "Shriners' Red Cross Sack of
Flour" sold at auction and started on its
travels in Islam Temple, San Francisco,
in May, 1917, has since visited Is tenn
pies in the United States, including Homo
lulu, and has been sold for sums amount
ing now to 1874, 1877 14-all turned over to
the local chapters of the American Red
Cross in the cities where the sack was
sold. The flour has travelled more than
$4,000 miles, or once around the globe,
and will continue on its journey till it
visits all of the $50 shrines in North
America. 1t has worn out 10 commercial
flour sacks, and when the flour visited
Honolulu the Shriners there wove
lauhala over the sack; al Helena, Mont,

the mobiles built miniature oil derrick of
nickel and silver around all the other

President Wilson made speech in the
University of Paris where was conferred
on him the degree of doctor Honoris
Causa." His speech was said, we pre-
sumo by George Creel, to be the greatest

up to that date In that speech the world
was informed Just what he meant when
he proposed a League of Nations. We
publish what he is reported to have said
for the information az of our readers.
my conception of the league of nations
is Just this-that it shall operate as the
organized moral force of men throughout
the world, and that whenever or where
ever wrong and aggression are planned or
contemplated this searching light of con-
science will be turned upon them and
men everywhere will ask, "What are the
purposes that you hold in your heart
gainst the fortunes of the world2"

phrases. Mr.. Wilson, Mr.. McAdoo, and
most of the other Spokesman for free
trade, are men of ample means. They
never dug their living from the earth.
They never wove yard of cloth or made
shoe They are not producers, but con-
sumers. AS individuals they have right
to be free traders. Nobody denies that.
They do not want tariff on silk stock
ings because that might make them more
expensive They wish to buy everything
they want where it can be bought for the
least money. They are not considering
the producer as being the most important
part of the body polite. They have a
right to feel that way but this state of
mind does not evince a high grade of
patriotism. Just now these gentlemen
are smitten with fear lest the nations of
the world will annihilate the United
States if its markets are not opened to
cheap foreign labor. If this country has
not the backbone to protect it's workers,
manage its own business and safeguard
what is its own, the Declaration of hide
pendence was written in vain.
We are not in the worry class of the
free traders. We are wondering what
would be the effect on the peace of the
world if unlimited streams of foreign
goods should extinguish the fires in our
factories and workshops How would
our 600, 00U cotton and wool operatives
feel toward England if English textiles
reduced their wages or closed the mills2
How would our 125, 900 silk operatives
feel toward Japan if Japanese silks domi-
mated our market? How would several
millions of our workers in other indus
tries feel, and how would their families
feel toward nations which by competition
were reducing the wages of the earners
and the comforts of their dependents?
What effect would that have on the
'good will" which we now have for for
eign governments? Even if it did not
light the flames of a foreign war it would
lead to domestic strife which might be
worse. A well fed, comfortable people
are pacific and easily governed. A poorly
paid or unemployed people will inevitably
become turbulent.
Our greatest danger in the not distant
future is right here at home The |. w.
W., the anarchists, the communists, fand
other believers in the overthrowing of all
government, are already much too nu-
merous. Hard times will strengthen them
immensely, perhaps to the point where
they will dare to risk all. Hard times
will surely follow free trade or near free
trade. The fears of the free traders are
foreign and far-fetched Our fears are
for the people of our own country.

ago in Carlisle, Pa. Among other things
he said: II venture the assertion that
the good will existing between the allied
governments which now exists, will not
last five years unless reciprocal trade re-
lations are arranged between them" This
statement is merely dilution of the

the removal, as far as possible, of all
economic trade barriers The dominant
leaders of the Democratic party favor
free trade. 1t is useless for them to try
to veil their desire for it by vague

A New World in the Making
BY Hon. Calvin Coolidge, Governor-EIe
of Massachusetts.

On every side resound the echoes of
the hammer blows of the Master Builder.
The world is being made over, transform
ed, re-created. At the summons of a
Voice of imperative command the world
has reused itself from Incidence and in
difference. Men of every cline and con-
dltion have felt the stirring of new
sense of duty, the impulse of grander
effort, the quickening of a world sweep
ing purpose
In the distant isles of the most unfre-
quented seas and in the capitals of the
nations that boast of the greatest pro-
gress and advancement, men are hearing
and needing call that makes the care
less, coura geous, and the humble, heroic.
Boys, in day, have been made men, and
men have found a new and greater pur-
pose in life. The pursuit of personal ends
has given way to an awakened sense of
public duty; selfishness has been trans
formed into service.
We live in an epoch making time; the
creations of centuries are crumbing and
on the ashes and ruins of the old order we
are clearing ground for finer civilization
than the world has yet known. We miss
the significance of these days if we CEN
ter our thought on material changes. 1t
is not the massive structures of stone, it
it is not the imposing buildings framed of
tier on tier of steel, it is not streets and
parks and houses that comprise nation,
The real city is the manhood and woman
hood that dwell within it. A country is
the heart and soul and conscience of the
men and women who inhabit it. When
we speak of Germany we do not think of
the territory within the borders of the
German empire nor of the cities builded
therein, we think of greed and cruelty
and crime. Germany is organized OPP
preston. Germany is man made mad
Men tell us that we are in the midst of
changing world, that out of the struggle
and sacrifice new world is being born,
that out of the pain and blood of war will
emerge new civilization. If they mean
merely new adjustments of national
boundaries, new groupings of national
interest, new opportunities for profit and
plumber they wholly misinterpret the
tragic events which we are witnessing
and of which we are part, and wofully
misjudge the divine purpose. Not new
cities, nor alliances, nor new boundaries
can justify the terror and torture of this
awful war; The only Justification of the
agony of the world is a new manhood
and new Womanhood.
Dimly we sense the dawn of new day
and the coming of better civilization.
We see Justice triumphing over injustice;
liberty breaking the bonds of oppression,
and righteousness, truth, and honor dis
placing selfishness, cruelty and greed.
What is our part in this new order and
this new world? 1t is to Undue the ma
ton with that spirit of heroic service
that has inspired our boys ''over there"
to perform deeds of heroism that will live
forever in the memory of the world. 1t
is to bring into the common affairs of life
higher sense of honor and into the rela-
tons of one to another deeper sense of
the brotherhood of man. 1t is to make
the reconstruction of the world recon-
secration to high ideals.

BURLESON KNOWS NO LAW.

The contempt of the autocrats of the
present Administration for all processes,
even to court proceedings, that may be
instituted to thwart their schemes is
strikingly shown in the correspondence
relating to the taking over and amalga-
nation by the Government of the lines
of the two transatlantic cable COM
panies. The President of the Commercial
Gable Company notified Mr.. Burleson
that he had filed bill in equity in the
United States Court at New York to pre-
vent such an amalgamation. To which
the Postmaster General replied in utter
disdain, II am not interested in any suit
you may have filed or contemplate filing,
as l do not regard such action as of any
importance"
