Muscle Not Properly Applied.

Every day evidence appears that
the American male Is physically more
powerful than his ancestors. The bur
glars who entered an apartment on
Central Park West carried off not
merely the little valuables, but also a
safe weighing 400 pounds. Two
thieves who operated in a restaurant
in business hours abandoned the old
school method Of snatching the money
from the till and took the cash regis<
ter intact. Not a week passes but
some warehouse reports the theft Of
dozen barrels of whisky each Of which
weighs at least $50 pounds, School
Fairgrounds, the baseball fields and
the gymnasiums seem to have done
wonders for the biceps Of our youth
In certain lines. But why is it, when
an effort is made to divert some of
this magnificent strength to common
place work. that an apparent disinte-
grafton Of muscle ensues?-New York

1t looks as though the equal suf-
fragists have lost their case in Della
ware through overconfidence, They
appear to have relied on noisy propa-
ganda instead ofmaking a thorough
canvass. 1t is also whispered about
here in Vermont that it would not do
the cause of equal suffrage any good
TO call the Vermont legislature to-
gether. This is taken to mean that
while the suffragists have been try
ing to get Governor Clement to call the
Legislature in special session the op
Iponents have seenuand secured enough
pledges from among the doubtful
members and those who had no parti-
cuiar feeling in the matter to block
ratification in this state. II will only
serve to delay the ratification of the
amendment until next winter but it
cannot but prove an affront to the
women of many states to deny them
the right to participate in the national
election whensit is clearly the senti-
ment of the country that they be
given this privilege.

The conviction OF Senator Newberry
in Michigan shows what can be done
by special exertlpns Of the federal de.
ipartment Of Justice There is no lea-
son to doubt thet Senator Newberry
vas guilty OF technical violations. of
tive election laws, ii no more. So
probably is almost every man who
runs for gh office in any case where
there is u hot contest. 1t is to be
doubted il a candidate for governor in
Vermont during the past twenty years
who has had opposition has gone
through the campaign without doing
things for which. he might be indicted,
and Vermont contests have been
cleaner than those of most of the
states. Sometimes the offenses have
been committed innocently and with
out intent and sometimes with know
ledge that a chance was being taken.
If the same close scrutiny that was
giver in the Newberry case should be
applied all over the country the sena-
to-. would have lot of distinguished
company. 1t is openly charged that
Henry Ford's canvass against New
berry cost as much or more than that
OF his opponent and there seems no
reason why 1t ought not to be just as
closely examined as that of the con
victed senator.

Coliseum, Chicago, June s.-Sena-
tor Henry Cabot Lodge, who was
elected temporary chairman of the
republican convention by acclama-
ton, began his keynote" speech at
12 o'clock, noon.
The crowd roared when he declar-
ed that the democrats must be driv-
en- from power. He said that Presi-
dent Wilson must be put aside. He
termed Wilson a democratic fee-
trader with sociaistic tendencies"
There were cheers from the floor
when he referred to the presidents
incompetency. The galleries, how
ever, did not applaud here. The
crowd did not appear to be in much
of a hurrahing mood and paid the
closest attention to the speaker.
The statement of Lodge that the
men who run the government should
not run the railroads, was loudly ap--
plauded. He said government own
ership had failed and should not be
repeated. His appeal for a firmer
Mexican policy brought the biggest
cheer of ALL. He characterized the
Mexican situation as "shame and a
disgrace
