John C.
Dear John:
oh! the circus day parade, how
the bugles played and played"
Goodness, the very thought of a
circus sets my blood a-tingling! I'd
like to stay right with it when it
come to town. from the time the
big grey elephant wobbles down
the gang plank to the time the last
yellow car is speeding quickly out
Of sight, down the narrowing rail
road track: and that includes
marching in the parade, behind
one of the most mysterious looking
wagons, and sitting through both
performances. eating peanuts and
trying to keep one eye on the ring
leader. and one eye on the clown
with the sidewhiskerS. Do I like
circuses? oh my What is there,
that Is m9re fun! Aunt Polly.

Capering so gaily.
Going at a jiggy-jog

No one ever need inquire
Why you are so merry,
Why your twinkling legs don't tire
Though they're short-oh very!
Reason Is, you're close behind
Your beloved master!
Why. l don't belivee you'd mind
Going whole lot faster!
Loyal little puppy-dog,
Capering SO gaily,
Don't grow up, jiggy-jog
Past my window daily.

LeOline Klus.
Dear LeOline:
Should say not! That is. not
tiresome and tedious. Imagine a
scout being dull! And specially a
typewriter scout. Such a thing is
unthinkable. If you ever find any
one that things you are, just send
them to me, and I'll tell them such
lot of things about "Y" races. sol
der friends and skating Kinks. that
they won't ever think 1t again.
Friendly? Yes, you certainly are
that too. that is, except when some
one tries to do typewriter duet
with you, and then sometimes you
well you don't act exactly friend
ly, but that is very. very seldom.
As for being hungry. | wouldn't
doubt that you are that. most of
the time. Isn't that SO? Anyway
/ wouldn't like to offer you a box
Of candy, no matter what time of
the day 1t was, II 1t wasn't sup
posed to be eaten. 1t wouldn't be
safe, would it? Aunt Polly.

Where do you live?
Ruth Brugger.
Dear Ruth:
First want to thank you for
your little note, with Its New
Years greetings. Same to you.
Yes, indeed, we want every num-
Der OF the Junior to be full up"
with all kinds of good things"
And many OF these good things"
will come from Junior Boys and
Girls, for It's really your paper
you know, and I'm just a very
much interested Aunt, after all. So
all you Juniors want to catch that
story that's rushing around in your
head, so teasingly and by magic or
otherwise transfer 1t to paper, so
that all the other Juniors can read
1t.
Now as to the question.
II you should 60 down Main
street till you come to the place
where there isn't single thing
straight ahead of you except very
attractive looking, but very in
complete bridge; and II you should
ny across this space (or you can
take the slower way Of climbing
81 steps, then you would probably
land on West Main street, proyid-
ing you few straight; and then II
you walk west about five and
half short squares, you would find
in front of you, halfway up the
hill, a rather small house with
big welcome (only you can't see
the welcome) and that is where ]
happen to live.
The name of this house happens
to be THE Little Brown House."
and it's very human little house.
In fact, IL you look at it long
enough, you will probably see the
drowsy eyes that are in the long
green roof, open and close. and II
it finds you friendly, it may even
wink at you roguishly, or wrinkle
all up with laughter. OF course,
everyone that looks at the house,
doesn't sec these things. Just
some folks.
Wonder what it will do for you!

SHOOT EN- OR SHIP EN-"

That was the remedy Farmer San
dies, of Sandusky. Ohio proposed for
our preachers of anarchy. "Shoos
EN- or Ship En-, that's the only way
to handle 'em," said Farmer Sandles,
and when he said it all of the $500
delegates to the Farmers National
Congress at Hagerstown joined in a
mighty shout of approval and in an
outburst of vociferaus cheers.
Shoot EN- or Ship Emil" They
want direct action, these I. w. w.,
William z. Foster and Trotzky anar-
chists, and there they have it. Good,
hearty, American direct action. 1t
has the true out-of-doors ring, this
Sanddles prescription for anarchy
preachers. 1t smells of the soil.
There is the true vigor of American
farmer-bred horse sense about it, sug-
gestive of the bracing tonic of that
New England air on which so much
of our stalwart Americanism has been
nourished. No splitting of argumen-
tative hairs. No fine-spun theorizing
over plain case. There is no room
for anarchists here. Still less is there
room for preachers of anarchy. hey
have got to be got rid of. How are
you going to do it? Farmer Sandles
answers the question. He suggests
two ways, both effective, swift and
direct. If your anarchy bawler is en-
titled to the privileges of American
citizenship with the attendant respon-
sibilities, Shoot him. If he is and
alien, Ship him. And there you are.
Neat and Expeditions and everybody
satisfied, except the anarchist, and he
doesn't count. Of course, under a
martial law status. there might be
some obstacles in the way of applying
the firing squad remedy. But the
difficulty the anarchists themselves
may readily remove A reduction Of
anarchy preaching to anarchy prac-
tice would quickly do the trick. That
at once would open the way to a re-
moval of legal technicalities. The
American people would be indulgent.
They have about reached the poinnt
where they are not going to voice
cavils over clear case of ANARCHIST
determination provided the law and
the facts are with the exterminators.
And as for Shipping En-" that can
go right along. There has been by
far too much haggling and dallydally-

THE REAL ISSUE

/ 1t is not so long until the country
will be buzzing with political gossip,
for another campaign looms ahead.
Six months ago, those whose livelihood
depends upon inflicting readable and
reasonable forecasts of future econo-
mic and political events upon a be-
wildered public, admitted they were
at sea when consideration was di-
rected to disecting the next president
ial campaign with view Of ascer-
tanning probable issues. In the first
place, events were moving too rapid
ly; anything might happen in few
months. The peace treaty, govern
ment control of public utilities-own-
ership if you please-federal extrava-
gance and many other matters of
national importance steadily refused
to develop into real political issues.
Even now. the horizon is clouded.
There seems only slight demarka-
ton line between Mr.. Average Re-
publican and his party principles and
Mr. Average Democrat and his pet
theories.
Today the situation is not mate
rally different But one thing has
developed to the stage where it dis
places in importance the peace
treaty, the railroads, prohibition, any
thing you have selected as a possible
issue. That Thing is Redism, Boil
shevism, radicalism or whatever you
may choose to call it.
Already Massachusetts, has definite

Armistice Day when l. w. WIS
fired on and killed at least four form
er service men for no other reason
than that they had worn the uni
form of the United States in preserv-
ing the world for liberal govern
ment
That, in America! That, where we
fly the flag of freedom and pride
ourselves on our sanity, our social
responsibility and respect for law and
order Never has America wit
messed an act which should more
arouse the nation to the gravity of
the industrial and social situation
which we face today. Mobs and all
to frequent brief courses of crime are
bad enough but they contrast pleas
htly with the deliberate, cold blooded
assassination of uniformed men, who,
in peace, as in war, have pledged
themselves to uphold and support
the government, decency and law and
order. What greater demonstration
of that fact could be desired than that
the comrades of the murdered men
actually guarded the jail in which
the alleged perpetrators of the crime
were lodged in the face of a menac-
ing mob?
Only one thing can be done to
curb the spread of creeds which make
such crimes possible. The United
States government has paved the
way if only red tape will permit a
thorough job. Deportation, impri-
sonment and where possible, execu-
ton are the only available remedies.
Justice cannot deal too harshly with
the men who are responsible for the
murder of former service men at
Centralia.

STILL STRIKING

Bituminous coal miners who walked
out early in November have not re-
turned to their work and practically
all OF the coal mines in the important
fields are still idle. Coal supplies
are daily dwindling with production
only about so per cent of consump-
ton.
Those men who have not returned
to work base their action on the con-
tention that Judge Anderson when he
issued his order set no date for the
men to return to work. Labor leaders,
in passing the order cancelling the
strike on to the men who walked
out, rescinded their strike order but
they made no effort to induce the men
to return to the production of that
commodity upon which the welfare
OF the Uniter States so largely de-
pends. In Oklahoma, the men re-
manned out because they said that the
order which came to them was not
signed. They had no way of telling,
they aver, whether that order was
official. In addition it did not ask
them to operate the mines but sim
ply rescinded the. strike order.
In general the situation is not
greatly different than it was when
Judge Anderson issued his now fam
Gus order from the federal court and
when the leaders of the striking
union finally accepted his edict. Am
erica is no nearer "a comfortable win
ter with industries operating at full
capacity than she was when the men
left the mines.
Striking miners and those RESPONSE
BILE for the present situation are not

conduct. In spirit, if not in letter.
they are violating an order of a
United States court. 1t smacks too
much OF sham and of horseplay to
meet with the sanction of the general
public. Labor has added another to
the long list Of debts which are so
rapidly undermining the confidence
the public has SO long held in organ
lied labor.

AMERIcAN1sM WINS AGAIN

Americanism won agin when the
jury brought in verdict in favor of
the defendant in the McKaig libel suit
against Frank Gooding and the States
man. Efforts. of Mr.. Gooding to
place before the people of Idaho the
truth concerning the Nonpartisan
league have been entirely INDICATED.
Ten men, after hearing all evidence,
have adjudged that Mr.. Gooding
stated facts. Ray McKaig may not
have been "hand in glove" with the
notorious Kate O'Hare but if he was
MT the type of men with whom he was
associated among the leaders of the
Nonpartisan league were SO undeniably
Socialistic, reeking with the faint of
disloyalty. that it was impossible for
Mckaig to convince a jury that he
was damaged in name and reputation
by being publicly placed in the same
category with her.
Behind the scenes lurked that ON
nipotent question of today. McKaig
was as much on trial, we believe, as
were Gooding and the Statesman.
And McKaig was found wanting.
Whatever else it may mean, that
trial spells the death knell of Nonpar-
tisan activities in Idaho. The league
has been losing caste for some time
IN this state. Members whose adj
herence to the American principles
OF government is above reproach have
been questioning themselves and the
league. Many, because of TownIey,s
conviction and the odium of continual
squabbles among Idaho league heads,
have definitely left the organization
and we predict that the McKaig fias-
Cot was hardly more-will swell
the ranks of those who choose to adj
here to out and out American organ
izations.
