Germany has signed the treaty of
Versailles which declares peace be-
tween that country and the ratifying
allied powers. Of the "big five" the
United States stands alone as not hav-
ing ratified, and there is a reason-the
bullhcadedness of President Wilson in
refusing to accept the senate reserva-
ticns. But the senate knows best what
is good for the country and very prop
erly refuses to be cajoled by would

Mexicans continue to slay American
citizens, and the only measure our
government is taking in the premises
is to direct it's consular agents to in
vestigate the cases and, if warranted
by the circumstances, urge local au-
thorities to arrest and punish the muir
derers, which, of course, is never done.
The time has arrived when something
more than coddling Carranza should
be resorted to. The old bandit. is
merely laughing in his sleeve. at the
'watchful waiting" tactics of Profess
sor Wilson, whom he is treating with
contempt.

This 'Bryan-for- president" move
ment is at least peculiar if for no
other reason than that the majority of
those who have set it afoot are Bills
oldtime enemies. Whether their
scheme is in the nature Of making
amends to Bill for their erstwhile
knavery or merely trick to give him
another swift kick is not clearly ap-
parent to the average observer.

TO decorate civilian noncombatants
is, in our opinion, scarcely the right
thing for the war OR navy department
to do. We contend that the boys who
were in the army and navy during the
war should alone be honored with
medals and crosses, and that civilians
are not entitled thereto, but they are
being handed out to such men. While
the doughboys and jackies do not ap-
pear to mind it, they certainly have
grounds for protest.

If, as Attorney General Palmer
tells us, the packers combine has
been dissolved, how would it be for the
department of which he is chief to
figuratively speaking sever those I'M
foreground tentacles which run from
the packing plants to the tables Of the
ultimate consumers through pipes
which add to the prices all along the
line; in other words, to dissolve the in
termediate combines?

A dispatch from Amerongen, Hol-
land, to the daily papers-which are
not very particular as to the truth Of
the stories they print-says that the
dethroned kaiser is a raving maniac.
Merely a falsehood, we take it, from
one of the scoundrels press agents to
prevent him from being brought to
Justice before an allied tribunal.

With print paper at $160 ton
and poor quality at that-whcn a
few years ago $50 ton was consid-
cred high for a good grade, is it any
surprise that it his been found abso.
.lutely necessary to advance subscrip-
ton rates in an effort to make both
ends meet? That there is a we'll
organized system Of profteering in the
print paper industry cannot be re.
futed-a gentlemen's agreement
which is no more or less than a com
bine, evidently exists.

OUT WITH THEM!

The vote of the national house OF
representatives-328 to O. denying q
seat in that body to Victor Berger
socialist representative-elect and con.
victed seditionist from the fifth Wis.
consin district, shows clearly how the
members stand in their attitude for OF
against the constitution of the United
States, UNDER the provisions of which
Berger has been twice excluded and
can never more be eligible to member
ship.
This vote on Berger is important as
it tells the story Of the makeup of
those who cast their ballot in the house
at the time the convict was denied a
seat. Three hundred and twenty eight
voted to uphold the constitution Of the
United States and six sought to con-
vert it into mere scrap Of paper. 1t
is scarcely necessary to state that
those who voted for the rejection of
the convict are 100 per cent Americans,
while the opposing six are sympathiz-
ers with seditionists-or at least with
one seditionist.
Now, are not these six representa-
tives equally as bad as Convict Berg
er? In voting for him their colors
were plainly shown. Were they Amer
leans at heart they would surely not
favor the seating of a seditionist.
These members are evidently tarred
with the same stick as Berger.
Then why not GUST them from their
seats? The country has come to a
pretty pass when anarchist sympathiz-
ers are permitted to hold seats in
Out with them!

1t is pity that the parlor bolshe-
visits of New York and other large
cities who are raising funds with
which to fight the deportation of their
brothers in iniquity are not rounded up
and deported with the common herd.
Is it because these fellows are wealthy
that they are escaping prosecution
Or what? They certainly need the at
tention of the department Of justice.
