The plutocratic idea Of justice is
legal justice, and since this outrage
Gus villainy appears to be entirely
legal, the controlled papers play it
up as a clever trick showing how
much h,;rtter TIE hir- h,sire:s ..,.c,,'
is than the common herd. Perhaps
they are right. Most of us commonly
forget that public utility corpora
tion is a soulless person and not only
soulless but generally inspired by the
tactics and motives Of the devil
Ex-President Taft, who by no
stretch of the imagination could be
considered as - adical, has issued Il
warning to the American Legion
which deserves the praise of the pub
lie and Of the returned service men.
In voicing q protest against anarchy
under the pretense of patriotism, Mr..
Taft says:
1.-The disposition oi small groups vt
American Legion men to- take the
law into their own hands, to regulate
by force what shall appear OH tie
sage in opera or in a play, and to sup
press by threatened or actual v;o-
lence speech of which they tlo not
approve, should he .liscountenanced
and restrained. It in iawlcssncss
awakening the sympathy of the peo-
pie that is most dangerous to tlse
state and our liberties. It is in the
teeth of the lessons our boys had and
followed in their service during the
war. The law should take it's course.
Protest by the Legion or its local
division against any official nerli-
gence or inaction in cases calling for
quick attention and effective prosecu
ton will achieve every legitimate pus-
pose. The Legion, if it keeps within
the law, can carry such weight in in
fluencing popular judgment that no
municipal, county or state officer will
dare incur it's condemnation. I:ut if.
local groups of the Legion are per-
mitted to organize themselves into
vigilance committees, to act in dis
regard of law and lawful authority,
they will lose, and ought to lose, their
influence"
Czecho- Slovak forces Still held i'll
Siberia have sent a message TO the
allied representatives which throws
light On what is going on in that por-
ton Of the world. They have now
been under arms more than tive years,
and the powers have refused to send
transports for them--perhaps to keep
them in the service of Kolchak. Their
message reads as follows:
"Unbearable conditions cause Us to
ask the allies to consider a means of
safe conduct to the n:otherl.lnd,
which return the allies have ap-
proved.
The military authorities of the
government of Omsk are permitting
criminal actions that will staggcr the
entire world. The burning Of vii
lagos, the murder Of masses OF peace
full inhabitants and the shooting of
hundreds of persons of democratic
convictions, and also those only sus-
pected Of political disloyaltv, occur
daily The responsibility for this be-
fore the people of the world will fall
Oh US. inasmuch as We, possessing SUI
ficient strength, do not prevent this
laWlesS condition. Thus our passive
ness appears as direct consequence
of the. principles of neutrality and
in Russian internal
affairs, and we are becoming apparent
participants III these crimes us !. re-

The small boy who is preparing to-

earthworms-known by juvenile
anglers as "fshin' worns"-but his fa-
ther, with a particular pride in we'll

earthworms are injurious to lawns, but
the United States department of agri-
culture, through its bureau Of ento-
mology, says that the damage is prob
ably very light. In fact, it is believed
that instead of being injurious these
worms are really beneficial in increas-
ing the fertility of the soil by bringing
to the surface soil from lower depth,
and in this way keeping up very
slight but continual top dressing.
Under some circumstances it is bet
ter that the worms be extermfnated,
though they are not Objectionable on

You who are weary of sorrow and
SHINING
Here is a beautiful hope for YOU
A hope for me and a hope for you
All the past things are past and over,
The tasks are done and the tears
are shed;
Yesterdays errors let yesterday cover
Yesterdays wounds which smarted
and bled,
Are healed with the healing which
night has shed
Yesterday now is part of forever
Bound up in sheaf which God
holds tight;
With glad days and sad days and bad
days which never
Shall visit Us more with their bloom
and their blight,
Thair fuIuocc nf sunshine or eorrOw-

Let them go, since we cannot relieve
them,
Cannot Undo and cannot atone;
God in his mercy, receive, forgive
them;
Only the new days are our own
Today is ours and today alone.
Every day is a fresh beginning;
Listen, my soul, to the glad refrain
And, spite of old sorrow and older

And puzzles forecasted and possible
