THE NEWBERRY CASE

Conviction of Senator Newberry, of
Michigan, together with a number of
other conspiratOrs, who violated the
corrupt practice act by spending bar
rels Of money to defeat Henry Ford is
a sad blow at the old Mark Hanna
practice of buying elections. The Am
erican conscience has been aroused.
The. jury consisted of twelve Ameri-
cans, nine of whom had voted for
Newberry at the last election. If the
senate retains him for a single day
that body will be guilty of conspiring
to defeat honest government, includ-
ing the peace treaty
Newberry and his crowd make the
same plea as the Bisbee kidnapers-
that of extreme patriotism Such YER
diets as the Michigan case shows that
democracy has gained by the world
war. The profiteers, big and little
who are pilfering the pockets on sale
IF food, clothing and building mater
ial are equally guilty and they are
already under Indictment in the great
court of public opinion. These trait
orOus thieves are too busy stealing
and fighting honest labor. to see the
signs of the times. The gates OF
Leavenworth yawn to receive them
The reign of honesty is near at hand
Democracy is in the saddle to stav
! Special privilege must go. -Messeng-

SENATOR B0RAH DEMANDS TN.
VESTIGATION IN PARTY

Washington, April Fearing a
scandal in the ranks of their party
Senator William E. Borah, Of Idaho
and other Republicans Of progressive
leanings. are awaiting the answer of
Major General Leonard Wood to pub
lish charges that a group of million
aires have undertaken the under
writing Of a million dollar Wood
campaign fund to be used before the
chicago convention. ','' ~ -!4aa
In a formal statement, Senator Bor-
as asserts that sit is nothing less
than national peril that two months
before the convention the use of
money in the attempt to control the
convention has reached the point of a
scandal. For weeks these charges
nave been made and made by men
who profess to know the facts That
a vast sum of money is being spent
is perfectly apparent -- .+
Other Senators, including Senator
Kenyon, Republican of Iowa, are un-
derstood to be anxiously awaiting a
definite answer from General Wood
and his managers. That the attention
Of the Senate may be called to the
charges unless such answer is salts
factory is reported at the capital
So far the Wood headquarter have
issued no definite statement replying
% the specific charges made. Re-
preventative Gould, the eastern man
ager for Wood issued statement
saying General Wood did not have a
million dollar fund, but said he would
refuse to either affirm or deny the
list of alleged wealthy contributors to
the fund. This published list of "un-
derwriters" included corporation dir
.ctors, transportation and steel mag
mates, bankers and other milionaires.
Representative Gould in his statement
merely covered the general ground
that all classes of men were for Wood.
1t is generally understood that B2
rah Will demand the facts if the Wood
managers do not Ccmo forward win
a specific accounting, giving the
names of contributors and amounts
contributed Senator Borah said an
ordinary denial would not meet the
serious allegations. He added:
"They owe it to their candidate,
still more to the party and most OF all
10 the country to clear these charges
in an unmistakable way. And this
is the only way they can be cleared
up satisfactorily. The Republicans, In
| my judgement, will demand nothing
less"
Senator Borah said no presidential
candidate this year could carry thru

candidate of the wealth Of the coun-

BIG TRIBE OF INDIANS

The Navajo tribe of Indians IS re- ported to be the largest single tribe of redmen in the United States, the census showing that the yhave 7S44 members While the Apache are numerically larger than the Navajo they are split up into different tribes, the Mecaleros and the San Carlos, while many bands travelling under other names are part of the original tribe. The Navajo has maintained his position with the parent tribe, due, we suppose, to the fact that the tribe is rich in reservation lands and per sonal property, the Navajo being far ahead of the other tribes in manu factures and the raising of wool. Ow- ing to the enormous property inter ests at stake the tribe has been peace able during the past thirty or forty years and it is probable that the war path has seen the Navajo brave for the last time.

How Popular Terms Are Born,

It appears that the expression, "black coats," for the great army of salaried workers may now take a place in the dictionaries. This is something of an innovation, for dis tfnctions in terms of dress have more often been applied to manual work CTS in one form or another. Thus, in France, Germany and elsewhere the blouse has long been the special badge of the "workers" as opposed to the "writers." In the same way a cen tury ago the smock was the special mark of the agricultural laborer in this country, and it might be said that the apron was the badge of the "serv- ing woman" Such, at least, Beau Nash declared 1t on the famous occa- sion when the duchess of Queensberry dared Nash's prohibition by wearing one in the assembly rooms of Bath Boots, too, have had their part in so- cial distinctions. The ':hobnail" was long part and parcel of the laborer, while in the eighteenth century "top boots" generally carried with them the idea of the country squire-the old tory.-Manchester Guardian.

 Would suggest if you have any thing really worth while to print in your paper you "pass up" the local teapot tempest, alias the row over the Yucca school board, every town and hamlet of two persons seems des- tined to have it's disgruntled ones and Yucca is no exception.

But, "Nuff Said", we are giving the subject en- tirely too much time and attention for it's real merit. ''The king is dead Long live the King.
