ried to John Tailor Dawson in 1854.

In the Green county race for coun-
ty Judge, w. A Loveland of Monticel-
10. defeated Judge Becker by a ma
1ority OF 700 votes. Mr.. Loveland is
brother of Mrs. Chas. Lee of this city.
Becker was judge of Green county for
over twenty years. During the war
he was convicted and sentenced to
prison for disloyal conduct, but fol-
lowing the death of Judge Sherron he
was appointed by Gov. Blaine to fill
the unexpired term. The vote would
indicate that the people of Green
county did not approve the appoint
ment, and Mr.. Becker appears to be
politically dead. Mr. Loveland is a
young attorney of ability and will
make a good judge.-Shullsburg Pick

WILSON IRREcoNcILiAsLE

Former President Wilson, the most irreconciliable of the mall, is still for the whole league or none. He has come out against President Harding's proposal that the United States ratify the international court plan because it would not be consistent with the atti tude of the United States for candor and courage Full adhesion to the league with whatever responsibilities adhesion involves, is his program.
 It was this attitude in which the former president is consistent that prevented the United States from be- coming a member of the league of na- tions in 1919 or 1920. The senate, save for a few who could look ahead, was ready to join the league. The president was so insistent that it go in as he dictated that it did not go.in at all.
 Time has shown the judgment of the people in refusing to shoulder Europe's burdens By majority of 100000 the country rejected the league. Pop ular opinion is also against the world court.
