There will be 1900 good mountain

The political barometer gives indi-
cation OF the approaching storm.
Maine. long accepted as state which
by it's general election indicates the
trend Of the nations voters, has
elected Republicans. but II is a sick
ly majority that the Republican par
ty has polled in comparison to the
$4,000 majority given to Mr.. Harding
in the presidential race.
With the Democratic vote holding
close to that of two years ago. the
Republican total shows a heavy loss
The political revolution which swept
the Republican party into power will
not this year meet the complete reac
ton which is due. The reaction. how.
ever. as Maine testifies, is on the
way. Dissatisfaction at the lack OF
results is widespread among those
who voted for "a change"
The Republicans have won in
Maine, but theirs is victory which
forecasts defeat There will be little
rejoicing among the followers Of the
G. o. P. standard over the outcome.

There is going TO be big repro
duction of Belshazzar's feast at the
Hotel Astor in New York on Octo-
Der 8. Senator Smoot Republican,
of Utah, is to be the principal guest.
The hosts are to be members OF the
Committee Of American Business
Men, representing a billion dollars
and all the individual and corporate
benefciaries Of the Republican profit
eers' tariff bill.
All the big trusts and monopolies
win be at the dinner with Mr..
Smoot. The railroad trust the
chemical trust. the electrical trust.
the steel trust, the coal trust--in fact
J all the great combines win have rep
resentatives at the tables. Senator
Smoot will feel as much at home as
IL he were in the senate finance com
mittee's room during the preparation
Of a Republican tariff bill.
This testimonial dinner to Senator
Smoot is to cost $40 head. II will
cost more IL the profiteer's tariff bill
is in operation on that date, but that
won't make any difference, since the
diners will have got enough profits
in advance to Offset the increase, and
more. According TO George Henry
Payne, of New York, who has sent
out the invitations to the dinner,
Senator Smoot has been singled out
for this honor because of the fight
he has made for a sound taxation
program" This is doubtless a CRATE
full recollection of his part in reduc-
ing the excess profit taxes and the
high surtaxes by an aggregate OF
$50 100000 and for his valiant SER
vice in making the Fordney-McCum-
Der tariff bill the biggest gouge ever
devised even by Republicans.
The date of the dinner-October 8
is just a month previous to the con-
gressional elections. By that time the
handwriting on the wall ought to be
pretty plain and not in Babylonian,
but in good English. Senator Smoot
is a fair Judge of writing. He help
ed write the tariff bill and the tax
bill and that letter demanding that
the Cuban planters reduce their crop
of sugar in the interest of the sugar
trust. If he can't make it out then,
however, it will be unmistakable on
November s.

FAREW ELL

Farewell, old town. farewell to thee,
Farewell to friends, if farewell it

love this town and some folks we'll,
Still I'm going away, forever to dwell.

For / have worn 1t upon my sleeve;

But my heart, it seems, right here
will stay.
There's some one. too, in this old

His eyes are blue as the sky by day,
And it's too bad that ] have to go
away.
With hair as light as a moonlit bay,

Now, don't ask me, for I'll not con-
fess-
But who he is you will have to guess.

I'll imagine a hero for this time.

CAN'T KEEP HERO ON FARM
French Veteran of World War, Re-
turning TO Paris, Succumbs to
Clty's Lure.

Paris.-The problem of how to keep
'em down on the farm after they have
seen Paree doesn't apply only to the
Americans.
For instance, there is Felix Queven,
who, before the war, was farmland
In Brittany. During the war he col
lected five wounds, the Cross of the
Legion of Honor, the Medaille Mill
taire and the Croix de Guerre with
nine palms and eleven stars. Upon
demobilization he returned to the
farm, but In 1919 was summoned to
take part in the parade during the
peace celebration. After his march
the lure of Paris got him and he de.
cided that never again would he re-
turn to the fields of Brittany. He is
a Paris street payer now, and enjoy.
ing the delights of the capital.

ARMISTICE DAY

Tomorrow, November the
eleventh., is Afmistice Day, the one
day which throughout the universe
and by all nations should be
observed in commemoration OF the
cessation Of hostilities during the
World War. the most atrocious, the
bloodiest war that was ever waged
and the ending of which was attri-
butable to the American soldiery
that left home and comfort to stop
the inhuman onslaught of the cruel
Hun.
Many Of those brave boys still
sleep in Flanders Fields" beneath
the waving peoples; the bodies Of
many others have been brought
back TO rest in American soil while
az cad Mementoes we see many a
mother, sister and sweet heart
draped in crepe. while on all sides
we see what was once q stalwart
youth with promise of health and
longevity of days rendered helpless
invalids and cripples.
Who has not that patriotic bload
coursing his or her veins that does
not prompt the outpouring o! a
spirit of honor to such boys who
made the sacrifice OF home, even for
a periodP Who can but admire IN
true Americanism that unity Of
spirit, action and sacrifice that
made possible Christian peace
which cost enough to last unto infin-
ity?
Armistice Day should be fittingly
observed throughout the world, and
even if there is not u public celehra-
ton in your neighborhood. at least
hang out flag from the home and at
eleven o'clock on the eleventh day oil
every eleventh month in the year,
bow your head in sweet obeisanceto
the spirits pride and offer silent
prayer of thanksgiving unto the
great God who imbued us with the
shirt OF Christian right and love for
our fellow man that brought such a
conflict to a close.

ISN'T THIS TRUE?

One of our exchanges has the
following to say, which we herewith
quote without malice toward. our
subscribers, though in the hope
chat they'll digest it.
A child is born in the neighbor-
hood; the editor gives the loud
lunged youngster and the happy
parents" a send-off and gets 500.
It is christened and the officiating
minister gets IS and the editor gets
800. The editor strains himself
and tells about dozen lies about
the beautiful and accomplished
bride and the worthy groom. The
minister gets $40 and a big piece OF
cake and the editor gets 800. In
the course Of TIME she dies; the
doctor gets from $l5 to 500, the
minister perhaps gets another So,
gets from 800 to $500,
editor publishes a notice of the
death, an obituary of unseeny
length and card of thanks and
gets SEQ more. Is it any wonder
that SO many country editors have
to squeal perpetually for what's due
them and go cold III the winter and
hungry throughout the year?
