James Anderson resigned the posi-
ton of chairman of the republican
county committee. UnderSheriff Chris
Muth was chosen to fill the vacancy.
The outside editor of the Pilot takes
the liberty to inform the public of the
unanimous election of John Nagle to
the presidency of the Wisconsin Edi-
toral association. Newspaper reports
indicate that his colleagues accord him
high rank as an editorial writer, but a
ludicrous mistake is made in ascribing
to him superabundance of modesty.
There is a wee bit of that commodity
about him but It has shown itself in
only one direction. II Is responsible for
his leading life of single blessedness
His friends at home still hope, how
ever, that time may change things.

Little-KnOwn Race.

In the extreme north of the Russian
province of Archangel dwells one of
the queerest and least known races of
mankind. These are the Samoyedes,
the wandering tribes of the vast froz-
en- marches which extend in these re-
gions from the forest belt to the
shores of the Arctic ocean. They wor-
ship idols and their sole wealth con-
sists in reindeer. Living, the reindeer
draws the sledge which transports the
Samorede and his belongings from
spot to spot in search of the game and
fish, which constitute his principal
sustenance. Dead, it provides him
with meat in times of scarcity, and
with skin for his family tent. With
its sharpened bones he tips his wooden
fishing harpoons and hunting spears.
It's sinews he uses to sew together
the shirt, breeches, and boots of seal
skin, which are the attire alike of the
Samoyede men, women and children.

THE AMERICAN
OPPORTUNITY

1t is clear, at least, that the destiny
OF the American people is now mark
| ed out for the great mission of leading
the world to a new phase of civiliza-
ton. By the wealth they have, and by
their power for good oreyil, they have
controlling influence in the reshap-
ing of the world after its commissions.
They cannot escape from that power,
even though they shrink from its re-
sponsibility. Their weight thrown one
way or the other will turn the scale of
all the balance of the worlds desires.
Peoples of destiny, they have the
choice OF arranging the fate of many
peoples. By their action they may
plunge the world into strife again or
settle its peace. They may kill or
cure. They may be reconcilers or de-.
stroyers.. They may be kind or cruel.
1t is terrific power for any people
to hold. If were a citizen of the
United States / should be afraid-a-
fraid lest my country should by pas
sion, or by ignorance, or by sheer care
lessness, take the wrong way.
think some Americans have that
fear. | have met some who are an
xious and distressed. But think that
the majority of Americans do not rea-
lie the power that has come to them,
nor their new place in the world. They
have boisterous sense of Importance
and prestige, but rather as a young
college man is aware of his lustiness
and vitality without considering the
duties and the dangers that have come
to him with manhood They are in
clined to false humility, saying:
1--WE aren't our brothers keepers, any
way. We needn't go fussing around.
Let's keep to our own job and let the
other people settle their own affairs .
But meanwhile the other people know
that American policy, American deci-
sions, the American attitude in world
problems, will either make or mar
them. 1t is essential for the safety
of the world, and Of civilization it.
self, that the United States should
realize their responsibilities, and full
fill the destiny that has come to them
by the evolution of history. To those
whom call the people of destiny
humbly write the words, "'Let the
world have peace"

British War Show Opens

King George, accompanied by Queen
Mary and Princess Mary today open
ed the Imperial War Museum at the
Crystal Palace, incidentally reopening
the famous glass structure at Syden-
ham after six years war service. The
Crystal Palace is the original building
erected in Hyde Park for the famous
fair of 1851, and transferred to its
present south London home some
years later. Since the outbreak of the
war, it has been used as a training
depot for recruits, transport and mo-
tor-lorry depot, and rehabilitation
center.
The Imperial War Museum is to be
permanent, but this year it is being
run in conjunction with the great
victory exhibition, a combinations
which taxes even the capacity OF the
worlds largest exhibition building.

MORNINGS NOW
Was So Run Down That Work Was
a Grind Like New Man Since
Taking Tanlac.

."My four years of troubles had pull
ed me down until my work was daily

recently of his remarkable recovery
by the use of Tanlac, Mr.. Follmer is
a. well-known employee of the Armour

commenced taking Tanlac that | was

over my body that kept me in misery
all day long," continued Mr.. Follmer.
My kidneys were badly disordered
and were continually worrying me, /
had pains in my back and joints that
were almost unbeatable and my joints
were SO stiff | could hardly bend them
at all. My sides hurt me terribly and
at times the pains were so severe they
nearly ran me wild. My work requires
sound physical constitution, and it
is no wonder that / suffered agony
every day and could hardly hold out
until night came.
81 had tried treatment after treat
ment, but nothing did me any good
until heard about Tanlac and started
taking it. Well, sir, it went straight
after my troubles and now it has
fixed me up so fine that my work
is a pleasure to me. My kidneys are
in good condition and the pains in my
back have disappeared entirely. The
stiffness in my joints have all left
me and the pains in my side are COM
pletely gone. l get up every morning
after a good nights rest and go off
to my work feeling just fine. have

telling all my friends what Tanlac has
done for me, and / am glad to give
this statement SO / can tell others

are increasing prices and rents and
wages and costs until, unless we take
heed, we shall not be able to sell a
cotton handkerchief in competition
with any other country that makes
then-and we need chemistry to save
US, to help us economic. Chemistry
aids industries; that is already estab-
lished, although many industries are
laggard in research. But our more i'm
mediate need is to bring it into daily
life.
We must, for instance, find some
bleaching agent other than chlorine
for the family wash. Chemical indus
try furnishes the chlorine in one form
or another to the laundries, and the
laundries can stand it, but the families
cannot. A fellow of the Mellon in
stitute made some experiments with
mems collars to determine the effect
of chlorine bleach. He Numbered one
series bleach another series without
it, and the bleached collars broke after
seven to nine washings, while the I'M
bleached stood 25 washings. Threads
which broke when a weight of LIPS
grams was attached to them were
washed and bleached 20 times and
then weight of100 grams broke them.
It is economically wrong to go on
making and destroying cotton cloth
that way-especially when cotton is
both scarce and expensive. On the
other hand, there is no reason why
we should not sprinkle our streets
with chlorinated water in the interest
of good health. That is something

though the experiment was tried, once
over a small area, in Philadelphia, for
a little while, without keeping any re-
cords and, since nobody noticed any
thing, the plan was given up. In the
meantime we let our streets go foul,
and literally we rend our garments
with chlorine, in the name of progress!

BOTH SIDES TRY TO SHIFT
BLAME FOR TREATY DELAY
Each SQuabbIes Over Past Efforts,
and Claims All the Credit
for Compromises

Washington, Feb. 21.-The question
OF party responsibility for the peace
treaty deadlock was threshed over In
militant fashion on the senate floor
yesterday, with both Republicans and
Democrats seeking to wash their hands
of the senate's failure to act and Of
any consequences in the political cam
paign.
Although both sides professed an
earnest desire to compromise and
squabbIed for the credit for past com
promise efforts, there was such note
OF hopelessness In the discussion that
the treaty's irreconcilable opponents
told the opposing party leaders they
might as well put the question of rati-
ficntion out Of their minds and turn
the senate's attention to the business
of legislation.
Among other things, the debate
brought out u disagreement Of fact as
to which side originated the bipartisan
conferences. In which five Democrats
and four Republicans sought unsuc-
cessfnlly to work out an agreement
and as 10 what transpired behind the
closed doors of the session.
