WASHINGTON LETTER

Washington, Nov. 2l.--The sweep
ing Democratic victories on Novem"
Der 8, including the capture of numer-
Gus Republican strongholds, add to the
happy, harmonious and hopeful au'
spices under which the Hon. Cardel!
Hull assumes the craftsmanship OF the
Democratic National Committee.
Virginia returns the largest Demo-
cratic majority in it's history after
campaign in which the Republicans
had an exceptionally strong candidate
for Governor and after they had wag-
ed the most aggressive campaign ever
made by them in the state. Maryland
in a statewide vote has overturned an
unprecedented Republican majority
and Kentucky has redeemed her legls-
Iature from Republican rule.
While victory in New York City
was assured in advance the tremen-
dous majority there was surprising
and gratifying. Particularly crafty
ing were the Democratic victories IN
important cities and towns n upstate
New York, long under Republican
misrule and bossism.
The election of the first Democratic
mayor in Syracuse in fifteen years is
regarded as a personal reputation OF
the autocratic reactionary Republican,
ism of Gov. Miller in his home town.
Recent elections in Connecticut
where the turnover to the Democrats
was unusually large was followed on
Nov. 8 by a Democratic victory in the
important city of Bridgeport and the
ousting of a fve-term Republican
mayor.
As pointed out by Chairman Hull OF
the Democratic National Committee,
the elections generally indicate a
trend away from the Republican party
and a realization on the part of the
people that Republican obstruction
and defeat of the Democratic program
of reconstruction following the Ar
mistice has brought about disastrous
results to business and indutry.
The fact that the Democrats car
ried President Harding's home town
of Marion would seem to indicate the
waning of the personal popularity OF
the President. To this is added a
touch of irony in the fact that Marion
voted for the state soldiers bonus at
ter President Harding in speech tc
the Senate, had brought about the
postponement and perhaps the deatf
of the National Bonus Bill.
National Democrats 1T the Capita
are greatly heartened by these gen
eral Democratic victories, which the!
assert will mike for party solidarit!
and. as Chairman Hull expresses ii
will inspire Democrats everywher
to renewed efforts with increasing ex
pectations of success"

of desperate deeds, the printing of his
picture, are Qualifications to the young
fool who has been caught.
We would prohibit by law the print
ing of a thief's name. Give him a
number as soon as he is arrested.
We would make it impossible for
his picture to appear outside Of a

We would have the trial occur in q
barred court room. And we would
quit the use of romantic" words, such
as bandit. gunman and the like.
Let's call stealing, STEALING, and

And as for gunner, they are mere
ly common murderers. Also cowardly
ours, because, in holdup, they shoot
nnarmed, defenseless people.

by brushing with broom, or wash

vinegar and water.
Crack Filler for Old Floors.
Put 2 cups -four in a saucepan,
add enough water to mix, then
add one quart more of water.
Dissolve and bring to the boiling
point. Add one spoon alum and
shredded newspaper until the
paste is thick as putty. Boil and
stir until of Uniform consistency.
Pack we'll into cracks, and finish
level with the floor; this will be
almost as hard as the floors.
This paste thinned with gasoline
is a good floor filler; put on with
a paint brush, let dry and rub
across the grain of the wood.
This should be followed by a
good varnish or shellac to make
a hard finish.
Diamond parafne oil is a good
floor filler as it preserves the
floor and the parafine makes a
semi hard finish. \
If a very cheap floor stain is
wanted use the following: Bruise
one gallon of green walnuts and
cover with Il to 2 gallons of
water. Let stand overnight,
strain and to the liquid add Il to
2 or. of permanganate of..potash.
When thoroughly dissolved put
the stain on the clean floor with
a paint brush. When the floor is
dry you may add a coat of dia-
mond parafine oil with the same
brush.
Old and dingy floors may be
made attractive by first cleaning
thoroughly with lye and hot
water, then apply one coat of
white wash paint, first thinning
with diamond parafine oil, lin
seed oil or turpentine until the
coat of paint looks like a thin
veil; when dry add one coat of
shellac.
Cut off the ragged edges Of
old linoleum, stretch and tack;
paint the linoleum with coat or
two of any good wash paint. Or
give it a coat or two OF shellac
! and you will have practically a
new linoleum.
If your window shades have
become worn or cracked, get q
can of white paint, thin with tur.
pentine, then paint one side Of
the shades. If shades are green
'on one side, white on other, paint
the white side. Be sure to have
1.-THE paint very thin, or it will
crack off when rolled up after
drying.
If you wish a nice dining table

table, round off the corners, fill
the cracks perfectly smooth with
1.-THE crack filler given above
tcover the entire surface witt
Imahogony or walnut stain, ther
fill the cells with oil. Allow tht
table to stand until the cracl
filler is dry and hard; then polish
the surface with varnish or -shel
llac; you have an attractive tabl'
at a small cost.

There is no subject more vitality
important to the home maker
than a discussion of the practical
helps in keeping the walls and
floors of her home attractive and
sanitary with the least time,
strength and money. A good
wash.paint is sanitary, saves
medicine and physicians bills; it
is beautiful and artistic if thought
and skill are combined.
In furnishing a room harmony
of color plays an important part.
Red contracts, while blue and
yellow expand. Never put red
in a dark room as it absorbs the
light and makes the room gloomy
Yellow is a sunshiney color and
makes a room on the north side
of a house brighter. Blue COM
bined with a rich yellow is very
attractive. Bown and tan are
good for bedrooms and halls.
Walls painted in soft, quiet colors
are restful and can be kept clean
by brushing with broom, or wash
ing with soap and water, or weak
vinegar and water.

 These materials show strong mar ket today. indicating an increased de- mand which should and probably will advance the price somewhat. The bottom figure has been reached, it is believed, and a slight advance may be looked for in the near future.
 These figures should convey the fact to contemplating builders that the opRortune time is al hand to start construction, according to builders, while other material reports show that the lowest point has been reached in nearly all branches of the industry.
 Local builders and architects report that prospects for renewal Of build ing in the Warren District, as soon as the copper market revives, are good and almost certain. Other cities and towns in the state that are not so much affected by the copper situation have extensive building programs un- der way, and reports from through. out the state show rapid gains in construction lines.

JE EWFIl FIGHTS
 CIlT IN WAGES
Moves Wage Reduction Case Be Dismissed By Railway
 Labor Commission

CHICAGO, May 5-Summing up the iated with the American Federation of Labor. B. NJ. Jewell, head of the organization. today declared there was no justification for reduction of railway workers wages and moved that the wage reduction case before the railroad labor board be dismissed.
 He presented review of the charg- es made by the employees of ineffi- ciency and financial mismanagement by the railroads; the employees sta tistics on living costs and standards of living and the unions rebuttal to the carriers data on outside wages and the cost of living
 None of the railroads evidence would justify wage cut, Jewell con tended. declaring any argument of reduced living costs is fundamentally unsound" The only fair basis for a wage award, he said was on an American standard of living" reiter- ating the employees stand that any reduction now would reduce the wage of unskilled railway laborers to bare subsistence
 The attitude which should guide this board" he said, lis that any de- cline in prices now should be looked on merely as compensation for the losses sustained by the employees dur ing the war when wages failed to keep pace with the cost of living"
 Jewell also declared no wage deci- sion co,:ld rightfully be made until the rules controversy was threshed out.
 The board took short recess to take up the big four brotherhoods at a night session.

 Accompanied by Mrs. Harding and Senator Underwood. the pres ident visited the hospital on the occasion of an entertainment for wounded soldiers arranged by the Alabama Society.
 In expressing the wish that the maimed might be restored by the wave of some magic wand, the president declared that the next best thing was for the republic to prove it's gratitude by restoring the soldiers to a condition in which they might live as happily as possible.

GOVERNOR GRANTS RETRIEVE F0R
 MAYL0 sEGUhA

Governor Riggs yesterday granted a repneve to Maylo Segura in response to a tele- gram received from John A. Clark, attorney at Fairbanks stating that a petition had been sent to President Will son asking that Segura's tence be colnmuted to life. The petition has not yet had time to reach Washington, and the reprieve was grant ed until the president takes 4ction on the petition.
 Segura was convicted of killing George Riley in Idita- rod in 1918. He was sentenc- ed to hang on January 15. The case was appealed to the circuit court and affirm ed. He was resentenced and a petition to have the senten- tence commluted to life was to be forwarded to the pres ident, but signatures to the petition from residents in Fairbanks could not be got ten. The President ; has al- ready granted several re- prieves, the last expiring on January 15, 1921. Two weeks ago the president refused a petition asking the sentence be commuted to life.
 Within the past week tho thru the efforts of Father Monroe, another similar pc. tition has been signed by all the attorneys not holding a federal office, the mayor representatives of all the principal business houses. the postmaster, all clergy
 men, Senator Collins, the e
 tor of the News-Miner and a large number ot citizens. The president has been wir ed to that effect. Governor Riggs was wired to grant |; reprieve long enough to giv> sufficient time for the peti tion to reach Washington and be considered.
 Those particularly inter
 ested in the Segura case say that when the crime wa committed he was an. ignor
 ant foreigner and that dul
 ing the time he has served il jail he has educated hi1nsel ana is taking a cOrresDonr ence course in engineering Many believe that the crime does not deserve the deatl penalty. News Miner.
