Yesterday. after being fugitive since

The men on the list nearing COM

so-called draft evaders are those who
failed to register.

acquisition of territory on the west

power. These are clearly implied In
the covenant as II Is. but the com

The men making this report are

1t may be asked If there be any real
merit In the criticisms of politicians
opposing the treaty, how was II pos
sible for the committee to reach the
foregoing conclusions?
One great trouble Ia that the aver

CANDIDATES.

Is the latest. Mr.. Cannon is the Agri-

Pity that men Of his character and
ability cannot be induced to enter the
race from the same party for the
House OF Representatives rather than
leave the field world without end to
the present Congressman from Idaho.
1wh0 are not particularly bright and

will better meet requirements. The

According to a Massachusetts paper,
commenting on the interest shown in
the citizenship schools which are be-
ing conducted for women. 1T Is gen
orally confessed by men that they.
the men. have In large measure be-
come prone to let the government
take care of itself to accept explana-
lions for failure to function as per
oath OF office. To complain q little
and then to continue minding their
own private business. But the women
are apparently awakening To the
fundamental need. not of playing poll,
tics. but Of taking part in government.
and this development is a progressive
step naturally following in the whole
general movement toward better
appreciation OF citizenship ohliga.
tons"
II has been said that men generally
are prone to let George do IL" when
any civic duty Is imposed upon them.
A public malefactor may break al
most any law that is enacted for the
peace, government and dignity of the
state. and some men will rather COM
mend than condemn him--if he gets
away with Il. They will tell you that
they know he Ia a crook. but that he Is
a smart one. Such misconduct in pri.
vate affairs with the butcher or baker
or candlestick maker would not only
bring loss of business but effective
public condemnation.
