Not Much Difference.

All gallant persons who believe that
politics would be purified by the partlci-
patton of women have something to learn
from the publicity tactics. of both suflra-
gists and anti-sulfragists in the campaign
now coming to close in this State. II
happens that the most striking instance
was furnished by an anti-suffrage paper,
The Woman Patriot: but the suffragists
have shown the same tendency to handle
the situation with certain amount OF
freedom
The contribution of The Woman
Patriot Vas a story in which Representa-
tive J, T. McNabb, leader OF the anti
suffrage cohorts in the House at Dover,
figured as the prosecuted hero. lie was
called on the long-distance telephone by
the designing suflragists. the paper SAID,
in order to break up speech which ne
was making. and a person designated WIN
impressive vaeucness as zone of the high
est officials of New York State was charg-
ed with trying to prevent his appearance
at an anti-suffragc meeting IN Now YORK.
Now. Representative McNabb is as
strongly anti-suffragc as The Woman
Patriot and has no objection to showing
UP the high crimes and misdemeanors
of the suffragists lie would be as eager
as anyone TO publish the details OF an at
tempt to silence him. if such an attempt
were made. But as to this story, he arises
to say there is nothing to it.
Mere man has long been prone to claim
that women did not know how to fight
according to Marquis of Queenshury
rules. He has been unchivalrous enough
to saw that the tendency of women, when
they fight, is to forget all rules and ''go IT
rough-and-tImblo" The Delaware suf-
fragc campaign indicates that this is at
least partly true in political fighting

Trembling in Right Leg and
Arm Is Growing Worse

Berlin, Jan. 3.-The Hague CORE
spondent of the Tageblatt gives a
rather unusual picture of the form
er Kaiser in a lengthy article re-
garding his personal appearance. He
says the Kaiser has grown much old
er and has been struck in his vital
strength. The trembling in his right
arm and leg is very noticeable tld he
has become corpulent. though he eats
little.
The correspondent adds the ''Kaiser's s
attitude is still soldierly but he ap-
pears TO have grown shorter. 1t IS
noticeable how slowly he speaks IN
contrast to his old habit He livens
up only when remembrances of old
days come to him. This often oc-
ours in the middle of a conversation
Only pity can be felt on such occa-
sions" In the opinion Of the corre-
spondent the former emperor has pur-
chased Dorm House as proof that he
has given up all thoughts of return

new ARMY BILL
DETAILS AIRED
Radical Changes in Present Mil
itary System Are Proposed
by House Committee.

Washington. Jan. 3.-Radical changes
in the present military system would
be made by the new army bill, de-
tails of which were announced to-
day by Chairman Wadsworth of the
military committee.
It would create one army divided
into three divisions. the standing
army. the national guard and a citi-
zens' or reserve army. The first COM
posed of $4,000 men and $4,000 officers
would be used for garrisoning and
training purposes while the national
guard would be available for service
within the states and to reinforce the
states in emergencies. 1t also would
be used under federal supervision for
training purposes under the universal
training plan.
The citizens army would be COM
posed originally of veterans OF the
world war volunteering to enroll for
short periods and later by boys COM
pleting the course of compulsory
training. who would be enrolled for
five years. Members of this reserve
however would not be subject to mill
tary service except in an emergency.
Compulsory military training would
consist of four months service by
youths of 10 years and voca tional
training in appropriate trades, includ-
ing scientific agriculture. Veterans of
the world war would be excused from
service.
The bill also provided for the or
ganization OF the air service as a
separate combat branch of the army
and for a chief of each combat service
including the infantry and cavalry.
