OTHER BaloHr PRETTY BABIES WAITING.

From eight or ten towns scattered
over a territory of about 5000 square
miles came requests by letter and
telephone and in person seeking to
adopt the Red Cross baby whose
orphan condition was set forth
In the local columns of the
Times Republican with an appeal
for adoption. Fifty families want
ed the baby. The requests
were so many and from such excellent
sources that those in charge find 1t
hard TO make a selection.
The Times-Republican while sorry
that each good family could not have
this baby has a suggestion to make
to the disappointed. There are little
children waiting for every open home.
There are institutions Of fine repute
in this state that will be most happy
10 supply the need and longing Of
those Ahildless homes. One, especially,
at Ottumwa was rev years ago
made the subject of close inquiry by
this newspaper and found to be all
that was claimed for It, a clearing
house between those who need child
rem and children who need homes
and love and care. Indeed there are
children in homes very close 70 US
who found their homes thence and
who are as dear 20 their adopted
parents as any children in the state.
The hunger for children in the
home should not be left unsatisfed
when the way is so easy. Those who
failed to gain their desire in the case
under discussion should not be con-
tent with their Disappointment.
There's a bright, handsome baby
waiting for them if they choose to
take II.

snlnrsRs AND SOLDIER CANDIDATES,

Il was predicted during the war
that service men would seek candi-
dacies for Office on their return
from the army, Behind this conclus-
ion Was the situation Immediately
after the civil war and which con-
tinued over many years when mill
tary service and especially d!stin-
guished war service was the key to
political preferment. It was hard
Shedding for any candidate for any
office from township supervisor or
town clerk up TO congressman and
president who had not been in the
army. Even with the fierce division
OF the principal parties succeeding
the war. which was almost as bitter
as the contest which had just closed,
a democrat in a republican district
held a good chance to win over a
republican who had no, been in the
army" So the prediction that army
men would seek and win the Offices
when they came home from the
world war was based on fairly COM
uerent premises.
But the world war soldiers have
not grasped at political advancement
and Office holding. With a very
noticeable modesty they have failed
to push themselves and their claims
Soldier candidates are not partic-
ularly in evidence. II seems TO re-
quire urgency on the part of theiI
friends to bring out soldier candi-
dates and those who have come out
are not basing their candidates. on
their war esrvice but upon theiI
fitness for office. OF course there is
no attempt TO conceal their service
but the soldier himself is not at.

psdiency and desire to have the
treaty centrovsrsy settled 1t an early
date. The most significant Of the
list 10 the Presidents letter, which.
while received by Senator Hitchcock
on Jan. %. was not made public until
Feb. z. a fortnight afterward. There
II hardly q doubt but that the letter
was made public In reply TO the
statement of vboount Grey that
European nations would accept the
ratification OF the treaty with reser-
vations instead OF unqualified. as tho
president has insisted. Those sena-
tors who see In Mr.. Wilson's utter
ances any change In his attitude are
able to extract sunbeams from Gu
cumbers.
The developments have reached the
point where tho president must dis
play unreasonable and unJustifiable
stubbornness amounting to SELFISH
ness or else he must display the quail
tiles OF statesman and accept COM
promises in order to permit the two
independent constitutional powers OF
treaty making to reach . mutual
agreement. II he does not yield to
reasonable senate views in order to
get the treaty ratification completed
he will show an attitude unworthy Of
statesman. because ne has been
told by those who speak the senti-
ments Of the important governments
with which the United States was
allied that they will accept ratihca-
ton with such reservations. The
Grey letter spoke unofficially. but
correctly. for British pubic opinion. II
not for the British government. Wis
count Grey In diplomatic language
knocked the props from under the
presidents contention that nothing
but unqualified ratification would
meet the demands of the allies or
be accepted by them.
