SOMEWHAT TWISTED

A little 8 year old girl was going
about last week selling tickets. A
lady importuned to purchase, asked
what the tickets were for and the
child glibly replied, "For the Worlds
Famous Fashion Plate," by which
she meant, it is surmised, "The
Worlds Famous Passion Play" AT
least the tickets so announced.

Socialists Very Much ID iyided.

The Socialist party made desperate
effort, this year, to frame platform
which should appeal TO labor, but sue
ceeded only in bringing on another OF the
period splits in IT'S own ranks. At the be
ginning of the war II split on pacIhsm,
and AZ the end Of the war on the ADVISABLE
itv of violence as means OF making the
Socialist revolutionary dream come true
Now It is splitting on question OF doc
trine or formula Doctrines, indeed. have
ALWAYS aroused more interest among
orthodox Socialists than facts.
At the time of the recent SOCIALIST
party convention some OF the leaders
thought they saw a unique opportunity Tor
the party to express the unrest which has
undeniablv been active IN the ranks OF
| labor. But when il came 70 the question
! Of how to express IT, or just what TO ex-
press. the convention was all at sea. The
| Younger. more radical. element advocated
| the Bolshcvlst formulas Of the Soviet and
| the dictatorship Of the proletsriat I
| The old stalwarts, led by Victor Berger.
| whose pacihsm kept HIM out Of Congress
| and led him to the doors Of the jail, would
| stand for no change in the Socialist creed.
/ The resulting compromise more an ae-
acknowledgement Of failure than coinpro-
rnise-was that the party agreed TO adopt
no formula at all.
This struggle is interestingly shown -
the Delaware Socialist party The execu.
tive committee is trying to frame plat
| form, and reports of its activities show
that al least one leader has dropped out
because most of the members, who hav'
done al their thinking IN the infoxibl'
channels laid down ninety years ago by
Karl Marx, cannot adapt themselves Y
the changing face Of facts.

GARNET CRISIS IN ITALY.

that such combination could not be

No one who Is familiar with the retiring
Premier's record will fail to applaud the
courage which he has shown and the
ability which he has manifested. His most
salient characteristic must be recognized
in a sense Of reality which the Italian
politician is so apt TO lack He has con-

organization to prove there was even an

spect Of the platform commendation Of the
Republican Congress for increasing the

Why the OmiasiOn2

II appears from a statement issued by
the clerk of the National House OF Hep
resentatives that Congressman from about
thirty States have failed to file reports OF
money expended in campaigns tor nomina-
tions to Congress. as required by law.
This leaves II an interesting question
whether these omissions were due to the
fact that nominations were secured with
out the expenditure of a penny by the
aspirants. or the successful candidates
have simply ignored the law, regardless OF
the extent of their expenditures. One
Congressman reported an expenditure OF
only two cents, for postage stamps, whiie
the highest spent $4,000.
Among the States from which no tate
ments were filed are Delaware, Massa-
chusetts. New Jersey, New York, ONO
and Rhode island In respect OF Deia-
ware II is altogether probable DIR. Calep

order for his nomination went out from

But as 10 what it cost TO secure ms
election and the election OF all the othef
candidates on the Republican ticket there
is no official information whatever al

However. there is no reason why 'he
