outcome of any of the amendments | maJorUy „f republicans, and that
may be concerned, yet the people par(V wj|) not dare defy the ideals
for which they fought side by side
with men of all political creeds.
Partisanship was forgotten In all
ranks when it came to the laudable
work of upholding American prin-
ciples and American Ideas of right
and Justice and those principles and
tho^e ideals are largely at stake in
the Italian cris.s.
Senator I/Odge, therefore, political-
feel that the men who offered their
services in this war have everything
coming to them and least of all do
they want to see the ballot withheld.
Jt has been hard to understand how
the men who so gallantly defended
the flag could be robbed of a voice
in the government—constitutional
technicalities and election law pro-
visions notwithstanding.

are in the service and it Is quite like- j
ly that the margin between the sue- i
cess and failure of any of the \
amendments In the May or Novem- !
ber elections will exceed the total j
number of soldier votes cast.
But regardless of this fact the i
discharged soldier Is entitled to a
vote and the citizens of the state—
both pro and antl on all of the
amendments—want to see that he ;
gets that vote. For this reason the !
called session of the leg.slature will
be very popular if a law enfranch- !
Mng the discharged service men is'
speedily enacted. j
It Is pretty certain that In the j
■wake of the storm which followed
the veto of the unconstitutional bill
senator Is regarded as an authority
on international law, but his action
of late proves him to be distinctively
a member of the old school, admir-
ing, seemingly, the cleverness i f Jjis-
marck.
GOVF.ItV \IF.NT OWN ! JtSHI I'.
Because of rapid fire attacks from
all sides tile postmaster general has
been forced to abandon his policy of
making the telephone and telegraph
; service a part of the federal postal
J department. If there was ever any
I virtue in that seemingly plausible
i idea, that virtue has been null.fied
! by the opposition following the tak-
! Ing over of the wires—and govern-
j ment ownership of any public utility
| now privately owned Is placed fju--
ther In the future.
Mr. Burleson frankly announced
i that the next congress w ould not
! tolerate his policies, so It was nec-
essary to let the wires revert to their
extending this privilege the legisla- !

Tiie recalcitrant public will be ap-

Senator !/>dge of Massachusetts,
the veteran republican who Is to be
Chairman of the foreign relations-
committee In the next congress, has
seemingly adopted as his chief en-
terprise the sinister business of
hatching up schemes to embarrass
President V.'!l;-on In international
policies.

wires are tA be returned, though the

bad stain upon the government's rec-

also, to live this blunder down—
since taking over the wires is an
admitted blunder when it is announ-
ced that the congress will not toler-

therefore, become an actual fact it

Song of I'raise.
Oh, Ihe day Is bright and sunny,
and the winter tiine in gone, and
I'm chipper as a bunny that is play-
ing on the lawn; all mjt cares and
won are banished and I'm standing
un my head, for the wintertime has
vanished and It didn't leave me dead.
Many things there were to fret me
when the winter days were here;
punk diseases tried to get me and to
lay me on my bier; I had jaundice
and rheumatics till I almost gava up
hope, and the doctors combed their
attics, raking up all sorts of dope. I
had Itch and bllllous fever and a
lot of other ills, and the druggist,
like a beaver, worked, compounding
noxious pills. Every hour J sought
the basement, there to feed the furn-
ace coal, which was shoveled through
the casement by a man who got my
roll. And my uncle saw me dally,
soaking pictures from my wall, which
I'd purchased blithely, gayly. In the
summer and the fall. Oh, for win-
ter there's no pardon, and I'm glad
the blamed thing's gone, as I whoop
around my garden, turning hand-
springs on tfee lawn. When this
ding-donged pome Is written 1 shall
bust a lot of chairs, for I'm happy
as a kitten, and 1 have no woes or
cares.
