Plans for the entertainment of the State Federation of Women's clubs, which will meet in Bisbee on April 6-7-S-9, were launched at a meeting of the Twentieth Century club held on Tuesday at the Y. w. c. A. Com mittees were appointed to consider the various details of the entertain ment and the arrangements somewhat perfected at a later meeting held on Friday afternoon. It is nrobable that the Bisbee meeting will attract a large number of club women from various parts of the state and ses- sions of unusual interest are in pros pect. Not the least of the program events will be a number of social af- fairs.
 Sweet peas and violets in attractive combination were used to give the color note at the tea at which Mes danes C. w. Cromwell and P. M. Buckwalter were hostesseG on Tues day.

The Cum mings will leave next Wednesday for Los Angeles and other parts of the Pacific coast. They will also visit a son who resides in Portland. Ore, and then return to their home in Michigan via the Canadian Pacific. The Bay View Reading club, the study section of the Bisbee Woman s club. met Friday afternoon at the club house.

A Dark Horse.

1t is much too soon to talk about q
dark horse in connection with the Chi
cago nomination. No active aspirant
for that honor has been put out Of
business yet.
There have been some surprises.
Gen. Wood has not proved as strong
as the forecasts of his friends had led
the public to expect. Senator John.
son has shown strength which had not
been forecast. Senator Harding, while
strong at home, did not in the primary
test show the strength expected Of q
favorite son.
But Gen. Wood is far from being
discouraged. Senator johnson. while
in buoyant mood, is fa~ from goal

had stopped him, replied that he had
NO thought of retiring from the race.

The Bonus Bill.

Indications appear that the plan for
soldiers bonus legislation at this ses
sion of Congress is not now likely OF
adoption. There has been steady
change of sentiment on the subject for
some time past, and members OF the
House, where the matter is under DIS
cussion, have been expressing them
selves in terms of a revision Of view.
On Thursday Representative Moore OF
Virginia. in a clear and effective
speech that held the attention of the
House, set forth the dangers of this
sort OF legislation and the burden that
it would impose upon the people OF
the country through any form OF taxa
'tion that might he adopted to finance 1t.
Not only is there a change Of feel
ing in the House on this subject. but
there has been a change III the attl-
tude of the veterans of the war. Many
who few months ago were strongly
urging bonus legislation of some sort
are now questioning its wisdom and
| its necessity There is feeling that
| if anything is done now it should be
for the benefit of those who were
wounded or injured and who are now
disabled and handicapped in the com
petition for livelihood.
| The present prospect is that nothing
will be done at this session, but that
the matter will be postponed until
after the election. The bonus matter
should not become partisan issue. 1t
should not enter into this present cam
paign, or any other campaign, in truth.
1t should be decided upon strictly as
a matter of propriety and patriotism,
and not as a political expedient or re-
sisted for partisan reasons. At present
any action that may be taken by Con-
gress will have the aspect of politics.
After the campaign this measure, in
some form or other, can be considered
strictly on it's merits, without any
taint of politics, and that, fortunately,
seems to be the course now in prospect

Wisconsin has had large investments
in beer, and the vets Of the state are

At Milwaukee Thursday q woman

"If you put plank in the platform
at San Francisco which gives light beer
and wine or makes other concessions

vote for the democratic party"
At Louisville Tuesday women took
prominent part in the democratic

Suffrage Postponed in Delaware.

Delaware has postponed action on the
suffrage amendment, the lower house
of the legislature adjourning until
May II, without voting on the rati-
fcation resolution, which the Senate
adopted. The senate, however, did not
actually transmit the resolution to the
house, and the present understanding
is that the suffrage forces are still a
few votes shy Of the majority and
that this maneuver is in the interest
of possible victory. If the resolution
had been sent to the house from the
senate the opposition in the lower
chamber might have preeipitated a
vote. Delay is to the interest Of rati-
fication, it would seem, as the present
tendency is steadily toward conver-
sion of opponents. The pressure on
the legislature from political leaders,
state and national, of both parties, il
intense, and it is felt that if time can
be had enough members will have been
won over to carry the resolution. Eff
forts have been renewed in Connect.

to take under serious consideration the

The Collectorship Change.

In filling the vacancy caused by the
resignation of Ben L. Prince as col
lector of taxes, the Commissioners
have continued their admirable policy
Of making promotions from within the
service which within few years has
prevailed at the District building. The
selection of Chatham NJ. Towers, dep
uty collector, to succeed Mr.. Prince is
justified by every consideration of fit
ness and practical availability. 1t,
moreover, is a recognition of merit
that, taken in connection with the
other appointments by promotion that
have prevailed in the District govern
ment, cannot fail to stimulate the en-
tire municipal force.
Mr.. Princes resignation for an i'm.
portant outside business connection re.
moves from the District building a
man who has during the last six years
demonstrated an exceptional ability in
administrative work. During the
course of his incumbency the task has
increased very greatly, and Mr.. Prince
though handicapped by an inadequate
force-which is the prevailing condi
tion at the District building in all OF
the municipal branches, owing to in
sufficient appropriati0ns-has main
tanned high standard Of promptnes,
and accuracy in the handling of thi
vitality important function of the loca
government. He will go into his new
work with the best wishes of the eiti
zens, especially as he is to remain her
in his new connection.

American Rule.

The London Morning Post. resent
ing the cable sent to Premier Lloyd
George by large number Of members
of the House on the subject of Ire
Land, says:
"Were Great Britain to pass rcso-
luton in both houses of parliament IN
favor of granting self government to
the Philippines, VIC imagine the Brit
ish foreign office would hear of II
within twenty four hours"
There may be room for discussion
about the wisdom of sending the com
munication in question, but there is
no analogy whatever between the case
of Ireland and that Of the Philippines
respecting independence.
The Irish have always held, and now
hold, that their country was Joined to
England by trick, and that English
rule in Ireland has always been, and
now is. tvrannical and prejudicial to
the country's interests. Part of this
view is subscribed to in influential
English circles; and the greatest Eng
,, lislman since the younger Pitt, not
even excepting George Canning-Mr.
Gladstone-spent the closing years Of
long and illustrious public life try
ing to soften the lot and advance the
fortunes of the Irish people.
The Philippines came to us fairly
and openly, and our rule there, by the
confessions of the Filipinos them
selves. has been productive only Of
good. The people, under our flag and
tutelage, have prospered in every way; ;
and the desire of those who desire in
ldependenee-the feeling is not shared
by all-is socketed in the training we
have given them in matters of public
business. They make the frankest ac
knowledgment of indebtedness to US,
and express the warmest friendship.
England prides herself on her rec
ord az a colonizer. But nothing she
has done anywhere on the globe holds
candle for effectiveness to what, in
a very few years, we have done in the
philippines and Hawaii. American
rule is without protest anywhere on
the score either Of oppression or Of
injury to the country ruled.
