H. DENU, Manager. - \ SCREEN NO LONGER SERVES.. 4 (Gary, Ind., Tribune.) i The. democratic press of the state is throwing up. geysers of| wrath and charges of disloyalty because of the republican: state! convention last week. The Hoosier republicans, you know, Sl were guilty of lese majestie against the president. They dared. to intimate that Mr. Wilson avas a partisan democrat, and thpt affairs at Washington were conducted on a partisan basis. Hoosier republicans did not believe the:administration had done all it ought to have done during the first.year of the war. The republican party. of the state will-stand by its plat- form, let the democratic howl continue until Rome-wakes up. Ty That platform was mild in view of existing conditions at Wash- ington, where politics enter into everything from contracts to commissions _in the army. i 1 The cry of disloyalty will stop no republican after the pronouncement-of the convention. - That cry has been used as a screen for a vast amonnt of inefficiency and what not. The screen no longer covers, . o i “HORSE PLAY’* ON THE LIQUOR BUSINESS. - Just why the president should hesitate to take the booze game by the neck and toss it on the scrap heap, during the war at least, is something of a problem to many. If booze is a good thing for the government to sponsor and support why M- not allow the entire nation to have booze, cut out the cam- ouflage and play the game clear across the board.. ‘Let every- body have a supply of beer and whiskey, as it is said is-ngcessary *to speeding up the ship yards work, and make the nation hum with industry as she never did before. When Captain Hobson said the president’s “arm was paralyzed by the liquor regime,” it would seem that the~captain i knew what he was talking about. 0 PFAENDER MANFULLY ADMITS HE ERRED. On July 4, the anniversary of the birth ‘of independence b of what is now the greatest nation on, earth, Albert Pfaender, an attorney of New Ulm, removed as city attorney for sedition and traitorous. utterances at public meetings, arose. at Gaylord, Minn., before a large audience and delivered a ringing patriot’s address. He is a decedent of parents of the kaiser’s domain. . He spoke before the-same strain at Gaylord. In his speech he manfully confessed he had been in the wrong, and we are i willing to wipe the blotch off Pfaender’s patriotic slate. & A BEMIDJI HOUSEWIVES ARE SORELY PUZZLED. , Just now the industrious and patriotic housewife is sorely g -~ puzzled and it happens somewhat thusly; s { The federal food administration loudly proclaims: “Can! Can and conserve food! Can anything! Can everything! Can!” | And then somebody in authority says to the housewife, I . “All the sugar you can use is 25 pounds for canning purposes.” e © ' 'We are willing to leave it to the housewives to solve. ; RIEEE Hurray!

S We're glad to hear Hoover admit that for no one else thought g it did and the people ought to know. In fact, it wouldn’t be out of place for some other officials to “come clean” and admit vyhat the patriots of the country know, too. Might' create a little better spirit in some directions. . TI}e busy thoroughfares of the city are poor playgrounds for children, and they likewise are poor places to be walking around on in the congested districts. That's what the police have been ende{woring to impress upon the people but it seems to be a rather difficult and thankless undertaking. £ Women’s —_— 1 Since the passage of the $21,000,000 bill for military ex- penses, the United States government has the world’s record for spending.
