Gov. Coz in Jollying Mood.

Yesterday, in Michigan. a republican
stronghold. Gov. Cox appealed r.
non-Iartisan support, and doubtless
his western journey.
Let us suppose the appeal effective.
Let rs suppose enough republicans
fiocking to his standard to give him
sistance by giving the country a non
partisan administration? Will he call
a republican or two into his cabinet. 50
as to give that body non partisan
character? And will he shape his rec
concentrations To Congress for legis-
lation on non-partisan lines
Or will he, after accepting repub-
lican support and triumphing with its
assistance. organize and conduct his
administration on strictly democratic
lines. and be guided solely by the San
Francisco platform in his commune
cations to Congress about new laws?
In considering, this appeal-if they

ence with Mr.. Wilson. In Congress
and out, they gave him support in the
fullest measure i'm all matters re.at-
ing to the war, only to be posted near
the close of the struggle as unrelia-
BILE. and to read a request by him for
another democratic Congress on the
score that he would need such a body
so controlled in the carrying out Of
his policies. He wanted to clinch the
fruits of non partisanship with straight
partisanship. The country responded
with straight-partisanshi hut of the
republican variety.
Gov. Cox is campaigning and in
dulging in the coddling that goes with
appeals for votes. He is a democrat
standing on democratic platform.
and if elected President will shape his
course strictly on democratic lines.

The Menace in Potomac Park.

Orders have been given to abandon
two of the barrack buildings in Pc.
tomac Park now used for the storage
Of government supplies. This is he
cause they are in a state of collapse
One of them yielded the other day to
the weight of the stores packed into
1t and nearly killed two men. An
other has developed such weakness
under the strain that il has been pro-
nounced unsafe. So both are to be
vacated
Why not all of these buildings? Why
continue to use any of them for this
purpose of departmental storage?
They are all in the same class. If
one collapses any other may do so.
Not one Of them is safe. Where is
the authority for continuing their use
when it is SO clearly proved and now
virtually admitted officially that they
are unfit and unsafe for the storage
OF heavy weights in supplies?
1t would be better to take the goods
out of these buildings and house them
IN tents under tarpauiins than to keep
them where they are. For every time
anything is needed from the stock
somebody must go after it. and that
person will be in peril while he is
In the building. The government is
not only risking its property by con.
tinuing to keep it in these fire-inviting
and coilapsible shacks. but it is risk
ing the lives of all who have to do
with its care and distribution.
And it may be asked whether the
two buildings that are to be vacated
which is to say emptied, will be per.
mitted to stand Or win they be RACED
and thus permanently removed from
the possibility of any future use?

No Early Suffrage Decision.

Denial by the chief justice of the
District Court Of Appeals of motion
to advance the suffrage amendment
injunction suit for early hearing by
the Supreme Court is regarded as a
setback to the opposition to the en-.
franchisement of the women. For ii
means that the case cannot possibly
be heard by the highest. court in time
for decision before November 9. when
the women will have their first chance
to vote the country over.
Yet those favorable TO nationwide
woman suffrage would have welcomed
an expedition of the case to insure .
final hearing before election day. II
is highly desirable that all possible
doubt on the score OF the validity OF
the nineteenth amendment should be
cleared up AT once. No question what
ever should rest upon the right Of the
women. regardless of state lines, Il
vote at the coming election.
Decision by the highest court In
favor of the validity of the amend
gment is by no means assured Two
points are involved that throw some
doubt upon the question. One is
whether the state constitutional lin,i
tation as to the time within which
the legislature can pass upon a con
stitutional change falls within the
range of the decision of the hixhes,
court on the question Of the liquor
referendum. The other is whether the
resembling Of the ratifyins vote ol
the Tennessee house cancels the af
firmation officially recorded with tho
Secretary of State.

identical in nature. as related to the
provision in the federal Constitution
that amendments proposed shall be

lures OF three-fourths Of the states,
it may hold that the Tennessee rati-

The new point. that there is no
Tennessee ratification because the
house has rescinded it's action. under

sideration within two Legislative days
from the original vote. is not yet he

scented. however. is virtually assured.
But yesterdays action by the Court

is no prospect that it will be finally

A question of Importance is whether,

Failure of the Brooklyn Strike.

The Brooklyn rapid transit strike
is failure. The court into whose
hands the property and interests OF

/ receivership proceedings has given
notice that a certain labor organiza-

| must be eliminated before hearing will
be given to the grievances Of the OPP

until the lines are again running at
close to the normal point, and it is
expected that by neutrality-suspicious. by

The net result Of this is that for
one week Brooklyn has been seriously
disconnected, heavy loss has been
imposed upon the people through the
need to use expensive substitutes for
the street car lines, the men have lost
a weeks wages, some people have
been injured in rioting and the op-
eratives are back where they started,
with lad record OF characterization
charged against them.

PURPLE DYE FROM SHELLFISH
Possibility That New Industry May Be
Developed, Since the Supply is
lnexhaustible.

On the Pacific coast of Costa Rlca
especially in the region about Cocos
bay, there abounds a kind of shellhsh
called the "nacascol," from which a
fine purple color is obtained. SO far
no way has been found for preserving
this dye, and the industry has remain
cd in the hands of the few old people
who take the trouble to dye a few
ounces Of thread every summer. The
process is very simple. On picking up
the shell from the beach or dctaching
it from a bowlder, the gatherer blows
her breath into it, whereupon a few
drops of greenish liquor oOze out.
This liquor ~ collected in a clamshell
and after sufficient quantity has
been collected the thread is passed
through it, soon after assuming, on eX-
posure to the sunlight, a beautiful
purple color, which is absolutely East
after it has turned purple 1t Is
thought possible that the dye turns
fast only on exposure to the air and
that the liquor could be preserved by
keeping the air from It, There is
little doubt that this industry of dye
ing thread could be extended to
greater proportions If an extensive de-
mand at good prices could be found
for the dyestuff.

medicine showed 1t to contain Is per

Syrup OF anise contained six per
cent alcohol, quarter of grain of
acetate of morphine to the ounce, oil
of anise and water. This was adver-
tised to cure sleeplessness, collie, dys-

to children.
