Ieee in Ex-Service Mems Behalf
Members of the Washburn A. z. F.
club are asking that free tuition be
given to all former soldiers and sail
ors. following suggestion of the Kan
sas Military Sisterhood organization.
In nearly all colleges of the state ex-
service men are given free tuition and
are exempted from foes A number
of Washburn men do not favor the
request, which is in. the form of a
petition, as they feel it is more appro-
pirate for the government to care for
former service men, than for private
colleges to do so.

THE COUNTY TICKET.

It was Col. Henry Watterson we believe, who
once said regarding the Democratic party that
it was "led through slaughter house to an open
grave" That was about what happened Tues
day last to the Democratic party in state and
nation and the local Democrats in this county
largely shared their fate. Some Of them were
particularly strong and popular with the people
by reason of the splendid record they had made
in office It is possible that few of them will
get in BY the skin Of their teeth when the full
returns are in and counted, but at this writing
it looks as though all of them except the two
district court judges, Judge Leslie and Ewing,
had fallen victims to the tidal wave of Repub-
lican votes that swept the state and nation
Tuesday last If that proves to be the fact they
at least have the consolation that they made
good fight and that their defeat is no personal
reflection on them. They went down under a
drift of public sentiment that made victims Of
nearly all Democratic candidates. The election
of our two district court Judges is due to the
fact that very large number Of voters except
the judicial office from partisan considerations.
This is as it should be, and Republican votes
saved Judges Leslie and Ewing from the general
slaughter.

creases the yield of sugar cane 70 per
cent. and decreases the cost of labor for
wedding so per cent. -,
Reclamation of waste is one of the
chemists most important fields of ser
vice. In the instance of the sugar mill
the bagasse became valuable because II
was right at hand and could be cheaply
converted into paper by the mill itself.
A more vital instance Of good material
neglected turned up in the south in con-
nection with the long leaf yellow pine.
This pine has been the mainstay of the
naval store industry, but now iumbermen
have begun to worry over the turpenune
and rosin prospects, for they figure that
the supply of virgin yellow pine is due
to last only about 10 or - years longer.
Valuable Stumps.
This proposition was put up to the in
dustrial chemists. They found that IN
the south there are thousands OF acres
of nine stumps. Experiments with some
of these discarded stumps showed that,
if they are shredded and solvent added
turpentine, rosin and pine oil can be ex-
tracted These stumps were proved TO
he richer in turpentine than the trees
themselves, and the soil from which they
were blasted is fertile enough to be good
land for cotton growing.
These fact. discovered about three
wears ago. are being appneu 10 shhaiA
extent now. Utilization of the stump
lands, however, Is more expensive than
the old method of tapping trees, SO that
II is not likely to become popular tor a
few years yet, or so long as the supply
Of trees lasts.
These are random examples gwen
here. but they serve to show how scien-
tific research, and especially chemical re-
search. is applied to any kind of business
Such assistance is not yet generally with
in the reach Of small Industrial concerns,
because it is an expensive proposition to
keep skilled chemists at work in labora-
tories equipped for all sorts of expert
ments.
This is not the only plant of the KIND
in the country. and as time goes on there
will doubtless be many more. Ihls
Cambridge company does claim the dis,
tinction of having as it's founder and
head one of the pioneers of industrial
chemistry-a man who 30 years ago
stated the astounding idea that chemistry
could help business. At that time, ne
says, such remarks were regarded as hu-
morous. and called for such pleasantries
as You'll uever blow up my shop with
your Internal gases" But this far-see-
ing chemist kept working, and now mil
lion dollar plants are confided to his care
to be experimental with as he sees fit.

THE LEAGUE OF NATIONS.

President Wilson asked for solemn referen- |
DUN on the League of Nations from the voters
Of the United States. He got it. The Demo |
cratic party platform made it the paramount
issue Of the campaign. So far as he could Gov. |
Cox the Democratic candidate for president,
made it the paramount issue in his public ad-
dresses His successful opponent "wiggled and
wobbled' on the issue good deal, but finally
definitely turned his back on the League Of Ma
tions saying he was in favor Of staying out with
or without reservations while Gov. Cox was in
favor of going in. The voters endorsed Harding
bv tremendous majority. They also re-elect
ed Senators Moses of New Hampshire Smoot of
Utah and Brandegee Of Connecticut, all bitter
enders opposed to the League of Nations or any
League of Nations 1t may fairly be said there
fore that the great majority Of the voters Of this
country are recorded as against the movement
to substitute reason for force in settling inter
national affairs through the League Of Nations
now comprising nearly all the civilized nations
in the world.
Senator Harding has said that he favors some
shad0Wy sort of association OF nations for SUB
stituting reason for war which he has not de-
fined but it seems very unlikely that he VIII be
able to scrap the present league and build new
one to suit his ideas, after he gets them, and ne
admits that he has no concrete ideas on the sub
iect at present and will await the birth OF ideas
in the clearest and best minds OF the nation ne
proposes to call into consultation to supply them
after he takes office The vote last tuesday
killed the League of Nations 50 Tar as the par
ticpation of the United States in 1t is concerned
We sadly admit the fact, because we regard 1t
as the very worst effect OF the late election and
one that will bring our beloved country into
much disfavor and i'll repute among the other
nations Of the earth. Some there are who do not
believe that the votes cast last Tuesday mean
reputation Of the League of Nations idea, but
are due to other causes Of dissatisfaction with
the administration, but while the motives of the
voters are hid in their own hearts, in demo-
cracy like this we can only take the vote of last
Tuesday as a reputation of the League Of Ma
tions and it's final rejection by the people.

election. Such slight returns as are at hand IN
dicate similar result in North Dakota and
Minnesota Both these are too meager to rest
any solid conviction on and it may be some days
before reliable information as to results may be
available in these states.
But there is no doubt about Montana. The
Republicans are in full and absolute control ana
Ex-senator Dixon will be governor for the next
four years It is almost generation since
Republican governor occupied the governors
office at the state capital at Helena. The Tri-
bune has not supported the Republican candidate
for governor at this election. Neither has it
supported his opponent for reasons that seemed
sound to us then and now However, we are
ready to say, as we would have said in the event
of Wheeler's election, that we hope that the ad-
ministration of the new governor-elect will show
that we were mistaken in our view OF his char
acter and qualifications for office, and that we
will not hesitate to admit the fact if the facts
show it to be true. We will be just as ready to
praise good state administration at the hands
of Gov Dixon as though we had supported his
candidacy as enthusiastically as did his support
ers. Most certainly on the other hand we will
find ourselves free to crticise if the facts war
rant.

A REPUBLICAN LANDSLIDE.
w. M. BOLE, Editor
C.. S. WARDEN. MANAGER

The national election is Republican landslide
Apparently Harding and Coolidge carried every
northern and western state, and perhaps soilAe
Of the southern states. It is an unprecedented
Republican victory. The senate and mouse OF
representatives are also Republican by good
working maiorities. There can be no question
that the verdict of the nation is against the
Democatic party and in favor OF the Repuohcan
party policies, and like good Democrats we are
nrenared TO bow to the will Of the majority and
wish them ioy Of their victory. The Republican
marty has promised to reduce taxes and at the
same time put in force protective tariff which
will check the inflow of imports in competition
with our home products, to pay the soldiers OF
the late war bonus amounting to a billion and
a half dollars, to put money enough into the
reclamation fund to finish up all the irrigation
projects, to make a separate peace with Ger-
manv, to scrap the League Of Nations and con-
struct new and better one, to cut down tne ex-
pense of government, stimulate business and re-
duce the cost of living It is surely an ambitious
program and if it is able to keep these promises
it is deserving Of all the credit it will get
We can sincerely say that we are glad that
the success of the Republicans was 50 sweeping
as long as they were to win at all Ihere can
now be no divided responsibility. Ihey are en-
titled to credit for any Improvement that may be
shown in the conduct Of the government and
the prosperity resulting from it. And by the
same token they are entitled to the full blame
for opposite results. So we will wait and see
what they do with their opportunity. For eight
years or nearly that time the Democrats have
been in charge of the affairs of the nation and
during that time the nation has enjoyed great
degree Of prosperity. Wages have been high
and emplovment plentiful The business men
of the country have grown wealthy. Failures
have been few. The Republicans have good
record to supplant with better one if they can
We have an idea that they have hard task be-
fore them to show better record, but we nope
they will do it. The large majority Of the coun-
try wanted a change. They are entitled to have
it and enjoy it as they may That is democracy.
The will of the majority is its law. There is no
question at all about what that will is in the
light of the ballots cast last Tuesday.

ANFU CLIQUE HEADS

FALL IS COMPLETE
Rewards Offered for Capture OF
Leaders of Pro-Japanese
Party i'm China.

Picking, Sept 10-tCorrespondence
of the Associated Pressl-The fall Of
the "Anfu clique" commonly identified
as the pro- japanese party OF China be
cause of the facility with which the
Japanese have concluded loans with
China III exchange for valuable conces-
sjons and privileges during the period
Of its predoininance is seemingly com
nlete and irrevocable. So complete is the
collapse that its chief representatives,
are at the moment in hiding with prices
on their heads
For five days every avenue leading

ont Chinese or foreign, has been subject

IN THE STATE.

At the time this is written less than half the
precincts in the state have reported their cleo
ton returns and there is room for some changes,
but not in results The Republicans have car
ried the state by good majority for their en-
tire state ticket and they probably have the leg
islature also by a very ponderous majority. On
the present figures Dixon leads Wheeler for
governor by more than twenty thousand major
itv and the entire Republican state ticket has
about the same lead It is possible that later re-
turns may cut this down somewhat, and again
it is quite possible that they may increase it.
The most recent returns leave it around the
twenty thousand mark, neither increasing or
diminishing it.
The results are astonishing to the practical
politicians Many Of the strongest Nonpartisan
league districts gave two to one majority
against the Nonpartisan eague-Lab0r ticket.
On the other hand many of the strongholds Of
the labor vote did the same thing They not
only voted the Republican state ticket but they
voted equally strong for the Republican national
and congressional ticket. Of course large num-
Der Of Independent Democrats voted with the
Republicans this year in resentment over the
fact that the Labor Nonpartisan league combi-
nation had seized their primaries and were run
of the returns would give strength to the deduc-
ton that the independent movement was equally
fatal to the national ticket, though officially
they indorsed Cox and Roosevelt, for Harding
and Dixon for governor ran very close together
in the vote
One Of the surprises of the campaign was that
in many voting precincts in the state Wheeler
actually got less votes at the election than he
got in the primary in the precinct last
August. Either between the nominating pri-
mary and election day good many voters
changed their minds about his qualifications for
governor of Montana, good many voters
went into the Democratic primary last August
and voted for Wheeler who had no intention Of
supporting him for election.
Tt may be wise to await the full official re-
turns before making much comment on the
breakdown of the labor-farmer combination at
the polls, but the partial returns at hand it
looks as though the labor vote failed to support
the farmers and the farmers failed to support
the labor end. Both wings Of the combination
failed to deliver the goods as expected.
At all events Montana is not going to become
tail to the Townley- North Dakota kite at this
