November.

The republicans are preparing for a
large attendance at Chicago. Let us
sll hope they may not be disappointed
that the convention may prove a rec
ord breaker both for size and enthu.
siasm.
Let US all hope as much also for the
democrats-that the attendance at San
Francisco may be the largest in demo
cratic history.
Tns campaign should be opened with
. bang, and, from first to last, be made
a bang-up contest. The people should
come out, first to hear the discussions,
and then TO vote. There should be no
slaekers this year. The man or woman
with the right to vote who neglects OF
refuses to vote next November either
has no adequate conception Of what
is at stake, or lacks the sense Of public
duty. The country will be calling all
voters to the polls.

SHOOTING STARS.
BY PHILANDER JOHNSON.
Headaches of q. Nation.

Headaches of Z. Nation.
There is no wild convivial cheer
To drive sweet slumber from the
night;
Innocuous, the cup draws near
With gentle juices cleaning bright
Still the belated lamps we burn,
But not mid jovial acclaim.
We make an income tax return
And get a headache just the same.

AN Incompatible Navy"

Americas Navy is for Americas pur-
poses and Americas protection. 1t is
not a swaggcr gesture. 1t puts no one
nation, but. all the world, on notice
And that notice is that America is look
ing out for her own interests: that
she has no thought Of depending on
any nation, or any chance foreign
alignment, for that service.
Our purposes are well known. One
is to. establish broader business rela-
tions with the world than have hither-
to existed. We are preparing to be-
come world trader. That enterprise
calls for an American merchant ma
rine Of large size; and an American
merchant marine of large size calls
for an American Navy of large size.
American bottoms carrying American
products must be safe on all seas, and
will be if there is American force be-
hind them sufficient to insure safety.
There is no a1truism in trade. Trade
is business, and business is business.
II we are to establish a large foreign
trade. we must be able and willing to
follow accepted trade preeepts.
The general interests of the eoun-
try-the country itsef-must be pro-
tected at all times and at all hazards.
If America needed adequate protec-
tion before the war-and she did-she
needs it doubly SO now. Although the
war. closed sixteen months ago, the
world is still in violent commotion.
There arc important sections where
chaos reigns. Why. then, should we
relax our vigilancei What nation is
relaxing its vigilancei Who does not
know, and really fear, that hostilities
in some measure may be resumed!
We need, and should have, IAN in
comparable Navy" The President has
asked for it, and Secretary Daniels and
naval officers of the highest rank have
echoed the request 1t is matter that
should not be. postponed. Ships, and
especially fighting ships, are not built
while you wait. But the bare fact that
IN ambitious naval program had been
agreed upon, and first steps toward
carrying it out taken by Congress-,
would have an assuring effect at home
here, and steadying influence else
where. For the world knows that we
have the means to support our as
pirations. r., - - 20 -.'.
"An' incomparable Navy" will cost
money, but would be cheap at the
highest price. Indeed, the greater
part Of what Is 1t stake cannot be ex.
pressed in money terms. If because
Of weakness on the sea We should be
taken at a disadvantage and defeated
by an aggressive foreign power, our
money losses would be our smallest
losses. Oar loss Of prestige would be
extremely heavy; and years might be
necessary to retrieve it.
There is need of economy, and Con-
gress is recognizing the fact. But
nero saving is not always economy.
To neglect OF deny provision for =
highly lneritorious project sometimes
proves to be the very opposite Of
economy.

CALIFORNIA COMPANY
 BUYS ALASKAN DOGS

JUNEAU, Dec. 16. - Alaska dogs, secured through the local agency of the Ingersoll Rand Company for the Southern California Edison Company of Big Creek, California, were passen- gers on the steamer Princess Bea- trice on their way south in charge of Jerry Dwyer, dog musher.
 The team consists of seven dogs, four of which are huskies, two half wolves and the other just plain dog. The wolves are only about halftamed ard it is feared that after Dwyer turns them over to some cheechaco dog handler in California there may be some cases of hydrophobia regis tered from that section of the country.
 Dwyer may remain in charge of the freighting operations for which the dogs are wanted. These will consist of thirteen mile hauls to an elevation of from seven to nine thousand feet to a power plant of the company in the mountains of California.
