Irwin, of Columbus, as state coal administrator. Than Mr. Irwin there is in Indiana mo more capable, energetic or honest man. He was admirably equipped for this service in every respect save one—he was a Republican. This dlack sin rendered him persona non grata in Washing- ton and the adminjstration stalled and bucked-in an amazing manner. The smug and fat-witted- Garfleld, worried into some semblance of ac- tivity by the indignant telegrams from Indiana démanding relief, pussy- footed back and forth to the White House, and yesterday the name of Evans Woollen, ‘of Indianapolis, was announced as coal administrator for seething Hooslerdom. Mr. Woollen is a Democratic leader of Indianapolis, a man of high character, acknowledged ability as a banker, and a close. student of public affairs. He has worked effectively -with Mr. Hays \in the State Council of Defense and if he has the time to give to the settlement of our coal * troubles he may get.-by. Certainly it cannot be charged that the job was given to a piker. Nevertheless, culiar attitude when it cl it dismally yelps for everyone else to the president.” ‘More and more every that it President Wilson wishes party prejudices forgotten by of ghould himself céase playing politics every hour of the day. 7" YMr. Irwin no doubt is glad to escape a hard ‘tnsk, whl_h ‘e had ex- . presked s ‘willingness to undertake when solicited, yet he has been need- Jessly humiliated and belitted, and hie thousands.of friends qver the lt,/Ate chgrined and "offended. | Thé Washington administration udint licl,‘curlqus'nptloli of the decencles of life and the ‘methods best; culated to secure national solidarity at a time when sol{darity is essenti! By THIS IS 0UR WAR Senator Frederick Hale of Maine believes that the people of the-coun- try should be made to understand thoroughly the fact that.our own form of goliernment is at stake in this war as well as the democracies of Europe. He holds to the view that too much stress has been laid-on the statement that we are in the war to bring democracy to the world, and {hat we have not been sufficiently told that the democracy of the United States is ‘in peril. Mr. Halé concedes that the President’s address to Congress and his reply to the Popeé were great world messages, “but,” says he, “‘the mother who sees her son go across the sea to fight, perhaps never turn, = to justify his sacrifice than the to return, wants a more immediate reason infx_mring of democracy to the nations of Europe.” jana recommended Will the Washington -administration -places itself in-a pé- ings frantically to its blind :partisan bias ‘while uforget, party lines and’stand behind he ; SAVE ON LUXURIES = The Washington Post says that soomer or later there must be a re- duction in the manufacture of mon-essentials in order to conserve mater- ials and labor for production of articles necessary for the winning of the war. True, and the best way to reduce manufacture of luxuries is for people to quit buying them. Conservation of labor and material can be accomplished that way much more effectively than by a government order —and it is a much pleasanter method. Let every person save kis bit. Three-cent postage is all right, and we will pay it with a grin if it will help win the war. Still we can’t help thinking there should be some | way to extract a few dollars from the tons of matter carried out of Wash- ington under the franking system. Paderewski, the pianist, is numbered among the assistants gathered by Colonel House to help him collect and collate data for the peace confer- ence. Of course, anything that Paderewski does will not fail to be har- monious. : _—_—____—_————————_——___———__ APRLi! CAR OF FINE JONATHAN APPLES JUST ARRIVED.
