Veterans and the Emergency.

Champ Clark has been renominated,
snd, unless there is republican land
slide, will be re elected. The district
normally is democratic
Something that will work in Mr..
Clark's favor is the fact that if the
next House is democratic and he a
member, he will probably be Speaker
again. He served his party well in the
chair for eight years, and retired with
the thorough good will of both sides
of the cham Der. His experience, there
fore, as a presiding officer is an asset
his party will not be likely to over
look if the gavel comes its way again.
Mr.. Clark is veteran legislator.
He first appeared on Capitol Hill as a
representative in the Fifty third Con
gress. He was defeated for re-elec-
ton, but came back two years later,
and has been a member of every House
since.
1t is to he hoped that all the vet
Grams on both sides who have shown
quality in Office may be successful at
the polls this year. The card Of the

Mr.. Raosevelt's Western Tour.

Candidate Roosevelt's western tour
will be watched with considerable in
terest. He will cover much the same
territory the President covered last
year. He will stress the same subject
the President then stressed.
The President, it will be recalled,
drew enormous crowds. He aroused a
great deal of enthusiasm Everywhere
he spoke the people manifested the
liveliest pleasure, at his presence, and
applauded all of his utterances. He
gave himself SO thoroughly to his
cause he collapsed physically en- route
home.
The tour was intended to influence
sentiment in the Senate, where hos
tility to the Presidents performance
at Paris had appeared, and was in
creasing in power and aggressiveness.
But in that particular the tour was a
disappointment. The hostility con-
tinued, and in the end the peace treaty
failed of ratification. The Senate
would not have it in the form in which
the President had submitted it.
Mr.. Roosevelt cannot be expected to
draw as well as the President, though
he should draw well. As candidate
for Vice President he will have STRONG
claims on attention. AS speaker he
would not offer himself as rival of
the President, though he speaks we'll !;
and being in perfect agreement with
the President on the treaty he should
speak to the point on it, as doubtless
he will.
As for the effect of the tour on
the western electorate, that could not,
in the light of the Presidents ex-
perienee, be with safety forecast. 1t
will be risky to calculate ballot box
results in that section from the size
and enthusiasm of audiences gathered
to listen to explanation of the peace
pact and appeals for its ratification.

York police department, which is now
under sharp attack for its failure to
handle crime. In the first six months
of this year there have been fifty two
murders in Manhattan borough alone,
with no convictions for first degree
murder, one conviction for second de
gree and Ave for manslaughter: Of
unsolved murders without arrests there
have been sixteen, or nearly three a
month.
Crime tracing is largely a matter of
luck, but it is kind Of luck that must
be foetered by good management. In
this present case had net a member of
the police department been strictly on
the job and observed the suspicious
conduct of the man he later arrested
he would have gone on. possibly con
tinulng his robberies until he CHANGED
to be caught Ia the act. If he had de-
stroyed particular piece of jewelry
taken from his victim in March in
stead of presenting it to woman he
perhaps never would have been iden-
tilted ms the murderer.
Vigilance Is the price of protection
to the people. 1t must be unremitting
and it must be intelligent. 1t must be
intensely suspicious. and, although
sometimes injustice results from too
much suspicion, the net of this kind
Of watch fulness is for the good of the
community.

SHOOTING STARS.
BY PHILANDER JOHNSON.

lot of candid people are declaring
Just at present
That numerous conditions join to make
the world unpleasant,
But the breezes seem to whisper, as
the darkness yields to dawn,
That our trouble will be gone
Later on.
It's hardly sensible to think the world
was made for SORROW.
So let's forget the yesterday while toll
ing for tomorrow.
No matter what perplexities around
you may be drawn,
You'll find that they are gone
Later on.
The world has never been improved by
hurrying and hating.
1t moves ahead by hope and faith and
vigilance and waiting.
So if each simply does his part with
brain as well as Drawn,
We will find our troubles gone

Allen of Kansas.

Gov. Allen Of Kansas, candidate for
denomination, is leading his opponent
by vote Of 3 to l. 1t is a deserved
Endorsement of a worthy man who has
made an excellent official. He came
to Office with a good record made in
Y. NJ. G. A. service overseas. In Office
he has shown fine capacity for direct
ing affairs in times Of peace. His re-
nomination probably means his re-
election. and Kansas will thus enjoy
further use of his talents for public
business.
This man came into national notice
at the time of the widespread strike of
the coal miners. which had for its OBJ
ject bringing public sentiment to bear
in favor of the demand of the miners
for higher pay and shorter hours Of
labor. 1t produced, however, the very
opposite effect Public sentiment con-
demned the strike: 1t rejected the
proposition that freezing the people of
the country was the proper means for
increasing the pay of a comparatively
few wage earners.
Gov. Allen took the matter in hand
for the state over whose affairs he
was presiding. He called for volun-
teers to dig coal, and the response was
such that coal in sufficient quantities
to serve the peoples needs and com
forts was produced. He then asked for
legislation to meet the future, and he
legislature gave him what is called
the industrial cOurt-a tribunal for try
ing disputes between capital and labor
where the public is interested, and
with power to enforce its decisions.
In this move the Kansas executive
did not challenge anybody, but cham
pioned everybody. He stood for all
the people, the miners themselves in
eluded, and did so SO firmly, intelli-
gently and successfully, his name fig
ured in the speculation about the Chi
cagO nomination for President.

A Murder Mystery Solved.

Solution of one of the local murder
mysteries is announced by the police
as result of some fortunate and
shrewd detective work. A man arrest
ed on suspicion of having stolen a
woman's purse was found to have
committed a number of robberies. A
searching inquiry into his career was
conducted, and eventually a ring that
had belonged to Mrs. Gertrude Mann,
who was killed nearly FIVE months ago
near Chevy Chase, was traced to him.
Now it is announced that he has con-
fessed this killing.
Although some capital crimes remain
unsolved here. very small percentage
is scored against the local police o..
gauisatien. Its record in this respect
is much better than that Of the New

At IA early time as possible We
need to get firmly and steadily on our
feet again. 1t has been six years since
the world war began, and little more
than three years since we entered it.

since the armistice was signed.

The Red Menace.

Both from a political and military
viewpoint the Russian-Poland situation
is decidedly bad. The bolshevik ar
mics are continuing their advance into
Poland, menacing Warsaw and, what
is more threatening, the Danzig "sea
corridor" by means of which Poland
secures her supplies. Preparations
are being hastily made for the evacu-
alton of Warsaw. The Polish armies,
stiffened somewhat by the arrival of
French officers. have proved unequal
to the situation and are able at no
point to make an effective resistance.
Conflicting reports are received from
London and Paris as to the purposes
of the allied governments in this
emergency. 1t is rumored that prep
arations are being made for the i'm
mediate dispatch of a large French
force, including the assemblage of a
considerable number of railway work
efs to man the transport lines across
Germany A similar Interpretation is
put upon a dispatch recently sent by
Lord Curzon to the Moscow soviet gov
eminent, which, however, is suscepti-
merely declares that the plan for
a conference will be annulled if Rus
at IN q
peace with Poland.
Russian trade representatives in
London. who have an unofficial diplo-
matte status, have wired Moscow urg
ing that the advance into Poland be
checked and that a conference be held.
In the absence of reply it has been
impossible to foretell the effect of this
advice. 1t is, however, to be feared
that nothing will step the Russian ad-
vance short of military force.
Important light is thrown upon the
Russian plan by publication of what
it is claimed is the outline of secret
treaty recently negotiated between
Russia and Germany. According to
this publication Russia is to be allowed
to occupy Poland and to appropriate
all her arms, munitions, rolling stock
and foodstuffs Russian commission
efs are to control the export of Polish
supplies. Russia, then. is to evacuate
Poland in favor of Germany, which
will hold Poland as guarantee
against future credits to Russia and
in return for German goods and labor.
1t is stated that the Russian purpose
is actually to repudiate this treaty
when once it has gained possession of
Poland, taking advantage of Germany's
comparative helplessness.
If Poland is occupied by Russia the
frontier of bolshevism is advanced
into the heart of Europe. Apart from
the tragedy of PelaHd's political col
lapse and economic ruin, this would
be menace to the peace and security
o. western Europe. and. indeed, a
threat against America. Yet the al
lied countries of western and south
eTn Europe hesitate about conducting
a campaign to prevent this disaster.
Bolshevik influence has pervaded those
countries and caused a serious reac-
tion of reluctance and opposition on
the part of the people against inter
vention. The tax burdens in England,
France and Italy, particularly the
first named, are so heavy today that
another military campaign, possibly
ON scale as great as that of 1914. is
viewed as a calamity perhaps greater
even than that of the Russian menace.
