SEES FIVE PARTIES
OUT FOR PRESIDENT
Ex-senator Lewis Predicts EIec.
ton Will Go To House
Tor Decision.

Former United States Senator
James Hamilton Lewis, of Illinois,
foresees a five-cornered fight for the
Presidency, according to a statement
he issued recently.
Some months ago in Washington
Mr.. Lewis issued a prophecy in
which he predicted that next yecr
there would be four political par
there has been inaugurated a move
ment for a labor party, and more
recently a proposal for the forria-
ton of a new party by the Commit
tee of Forty-eight.
THE country will have five ma
tional parties, with five candidates
for Decentralization, Demo-
crat, Socialist, Labor and Liberal"
said Mr. Lewis yesterday. The
last two will contain many farmers
local political organizations of the
West and Southwest The result
of the next election will be So uncer-
tain as to throw the Presidency into
the House of Representative for,
decision-another Hayes-TildGn Is
rs contest, without its political
crimes.
The sprouts of political candi-
dates now up and out" he says,
will be withered from winter cold
long before next June's conventions.
The open house of all conventions
means that new men will be brought
forth as nominees-some of them
not now named-in the West. New
York has McAdoo and Lansing on
the tongue as heirs to Wilson, while
Lewis Nixon and James w. Gerard
are the suggestions for Vice Presi-
dent of the nominee is picked from
the West. ..-..
Attorney General Palmer and
Herbert Hoover are most spoken of
after leaving New York, until the
Middle West is reached. There is a
quiet movement in the Middle West
to put Vice President Marshall in
the first place. as compromise. to
avoid conflict in the Democratic con-
vention.
THE Republicans will be domi-
mated by the expressions at the pri-
maris to be held from now on to
May in eleven big States. The Amer
;can people will see the first South
erner on both tickets since the Civ
il War.
1.-THE one solemn fact, regretta-
BILE to. have to be admitted is that
the next election for President, Vice
President and Congressman is to be
decided by votes on issues that have
to do only with every other country
than the United States. A large
portion of our Irish votes will be
Cast as the interest of ireland over
England suggests. The Italians will
vote to vindicate the claim to Fiume.
the Greeks to get Thrace, the Ger
man-American voter TO resent the
peace treaty terms, while the Rus
sian and Scandinavian sympathizers
will vote their sentiments on the
Russian and Polish sitution.
THE United Sites, for the first
time in its life, will be controlled in
its elections, and in tbs next national
officials, by voters of foreign birth
or foreign blood, who will be indif-
ferent to the needs or the welfare
of this. land in their zeal to vindi-
cate or resent the treatment they
imagine or feel has been the fate of
foreign fatherlands under our in
fiuence, in the world peace treaty.
at is this that makes the future
strange and dangerous"

JURY Ex0NERATES WIFE
FOR KILLING w. H. BIEBER
Returns to Hospital, Still Suffer
ins-son Testifies at Morgue
Of Fathers Assault.

Mrs. Grace L. Bieber, suffering from
cuts and bruises she is said to have re-
ceived at the hands of her husband,
William H. Bieber. a fireman, at their
home in Southwest Washington We'd
nesday morning just before she shot and
killed him. appeared at the morRue yes
terday afternoon. told her story Of the
anair and was exonerated by a coroner 3
Jury. Following her exoneYation she
was returned to Casualty Hospital.
The morgue was filed with spectators,
most OF them women. when Mrs. Bieker,
escorted by Attorney James A. O'Shea
and relatives and in charge Of a police
woman, appeared. Following the testi-
mony OF the physicians, Edgar Biebef
young son Of the couple, told Of his
fathers conduct just prior to the shoot
ing.
Edgar said he had refused to accom-
pany his father to the country be-
cause the latter had been drinking, and
his father, he testified, chased him to
the street with a strap. He also told of
the language his father used toward his
mother, and declared he also assaulted
her.

husbands conduct on numerous occa-
sions. and the wife related the story of

Ju,netime

:. How beautiful this old world
is, along about this time of year!
I look around and cry, Gee
whiz! 1t makes me glad just to
be here! l would not give a
ricayune for one who lets the
t. ardrops leak; these are the ia
NOUS days of June, of which the
" ell known poets speak" In all
the ages bards have spelled
about this seasons joys and
charms, have sung the lilies of
the field, and handed nosegays
tc the farms. Inspired by June,
the poet squirms, and, like the
grounding, leaves his hole, and
chants lay in ringing terms,
with all the fervor of his soul.
And though we pelt the board
with bricks, because we're
down on odes and things, he
voices thoughts that we poor
hicks can't give expression,
when he sings. In June we all
would poets be, if we knew how
to handle Tyres; the brooks, the
woods, the fowery lea. all serve
to light poetic fires. Emotions
strange our bosoms thrill; we
wish we had harp or pen, and
we'd embalm the sunlit hill, the
zephyr singing through the
glen. We'd like TO voice the
thoughts that throng, about the
landscape and the skies; we
strive to plan noble song, and
end by saying. "Dern the flies!"

A resolution adopted unanimously at
the meeting held in the Brightwood
public school stated:
I'VE protest, as residents of the Dis
trict Of Columbia, this un-American
way of doing an un-American thing
at time when the American banner
flies highest at the worlds mast
head. and we insist, without local
rights of our own, upon being treated
as national Americans-justly, fairly
and honestly-by Congress, and we
petition those members of both leg
islative houses who believe in fair
play and substantial justice to kill
the District appropriation bill rather
than pass it annulling our city's
charter without an opportunity for
any resident taxpayer to be heard in
its behalf"
Anti-Weapon Law Urged.

ton. presented by c. c. Lancaster.
