The Johnson immigration bill. prohibiting all im- migration for a period of one year has passed the Jower house of congress and has been sent to the senate for its approval or disapproval. Of the membership of. the house voting upon the measure 293 voted for it and 41 voted against it. Party cut no figure, it was regarded who! ‘ly in an economical light. It is predicted that the senate will disapprove the act because it has upon previous occasions withheld approval. of similar measures. On those occasions, however, conditions were radically different, the class of immigration was more desirable and there was urgent need, of labor in the country. At present all the argument is in the other direction, a large proportion of the peg- | ple coming to our shores is nét such material as we would select for. melting pot purposes. Too much of it is of the war derelict class, discontented, reck- less and desperate, made so by suffering and loss in the great war. They are Ishmaelites and’ in a land of personal freedom, unknown; to them in their previous life, they would be a constant source of trouble and danger. We have too great annoyance with the same.class already in the country to in- crease the number under the cénditions of: ureasi- ness now. obtaining among. the peaple. Aside from this, great numbers” throughout the industrial. districts are idle and*this number is like- ly to be increased during: the winter and; before congress can relieve the situation by legislation, provided it is within the scope of acts of congress to afford relief. The house has acted wisely upon the question and performed its duty promptly. The facts in the case are fully as well known to the senate as to the lower branch, While the senate has a number of measures upon the same subject alrady. before it a law meeting the situation as adequately: as it de- serves is the hope of the country. + The senate is equally as patriotic as the house: - It responds as readily to the will of the people and «it will be a matter of grievous disappointment if it -does not show a similar promptness and an equally high regard for the country’s welfare. The police departments of several of. the larg- er cities of the country have instituted a function » known as the week-end’ round-up: It consists of going out and driving the gamblers and criminals and red-lighters into the police stations and. fining ‘them on general principles. - : THE TRIUMPH OF DIPLOMACY. Holland has severed diplomatic relations with ~ Jugo-Slavia. It has a formidable enough sound, but in reality it doesn’t mean a thing. im European affairs. Not anything more than a “strict account- ability” communication from Mr. Wilson to the late Mr. Carranza. _ The. representatives at the respective capitals _of these two nations will return’ horne and ‘these “diminutive powers will be presumed to be “mad” _at each other and not on speaking tertis until it will some day be discovered what it is all about, when Jugo-Slavia. will tell Holland “far be it from hes to even dream of offering affront to let majeésty’s proud government and: the most excellent people of The Netherlands, whom she had always loved, etc.” Then the status quo will be restored, the world -will breath again and diplomacy will take credit for having averted another war. What. a wonderful bluff diplomacy: is. WATCHMAN! WHAT OF THE NIGHT? While there will never be afy place in the American scheme for rule by the iron hand, there bre tities when firmness of action, even drastic ction, becomes necessary. in, keeping our house in order, Those who would destroy our institutions, by acts of treason, are entitled to no more consid- eration under ouir free government than under the most autoeratic nile on earth. Unfortunately for us we are cursed with a de- partment of justice unfit to function in normal times and one that is wholly lost to a sense of its “responsibility in a time of danger.

The country is watching. with more than ordi- nary interest the outcome of the Hamon case in With the sordid) details. of Hamon’s life and. death, the public now has no funn curi- | osity, for it is the story enacted: after day and exploited) i ys news for the Deication of the cago reade:. The late Mr. Hamon happened to be the Republican national committeeman from Oklahoma and his removal leaves a vacancy to be filled by the Republican state committee ahd to be. confirmed: by the Repub- | lican national committee, | The late committeeman’s widow became a can- Hidate to succeed) him before the funeral was scarcely held; and so far offended, the proprieties as to announce her candidacy in the same breath with a discussion, in: public interviews, of her hus- band’s entanglements with other women, and’ with the particular womar’ who is charged with and is: now being sought for his murder. The lady has a perfect right to be a candidate for the committeeship for Oklahoma. It is not stated by those informed that she has the slightest qualification for the. office. It is purely a matter of | sentiment and of wanting the place. - Therefore: the interest in the Hamon: case at | this time is im learning. what view the ‘Republican party of Oklahoma takes of the wholé affair and | their notion of a successor to the late Mr. Hamon. | German newspapers are having a good) time | among themsélves poking fun at President Wilson on account of the recent award of the Nobel. peace | prize. The comment could be considered caustic. ONE LIBERTY LOAN. ' thesia It may not be comforting but it will certainly | be enlightening, to the people of the United, States to sit down and study the matter of disposal of the money they furnished for the Liberty loans floated by their government during the war period. The New. York Herald, takes occasion to show the peo- ple what becaine of one loan in this fashion: Men who know what they are talking about say government shipbuilding and government ship operation have cost the taxpayers $2,000,000,000 in extravagance, waste, graft and theft. Most of the taxpayers have no standard by which to gain comprehension of what $2,000,000,- 000 means. This amount of money is so great it overwhelms the imagination, Yet there is one comparison which may be use- ful: in. bringing home to everybody the. stupendous cost to the taxpayers of their betrayal by admin- istration incompetents. In June, 1911/7, the first Liberty loan was float- ed. The treasury appealed to every patriot in the country to help out. Four million, five hundred thousand men, women and. children subscribed. Some of them were poor, and: their subscriptions meant for them privations. Others subscribed more | than they could) afford. because the government had to have the money. The first Liberty loan was. for exactly $2,000,- 000,000, or the amount which the shipping trans- actions of the administration have cost the tax- payers in’ graft, waste and peculation. The men and women who worked and saved to buy the first Liberty loan will have at least ah idea. 6f what the scoundrels“and incompetents have | otis as thiB §. of Boaiiarty. | oh much like that of Another reptilian the season's foo! fiinged: iciegica (8 ney as fourd in is the use of gues, combined with white an it soft leathers, THE effect is to resemble an dder’a or dragon tongue.

TASTE FOR KNICKKNACKS, The Democratic party has nothing. to. show for eight years’ control of the government except a bad record, a jotten conscience and a deficit of $300,000. What anyone would want with the out- fit cannot well. be imagined, unless he were a col- lector of relics or a junk dealer. The administration wing of the party must cer- tainly be one or the other, for when George White, the chairman, threatened to liquidate the physical assets of the party organization to meet the deficit, the Wilson witig offered to assume the obligations | if givén a clear, title to the organization. | This means, of course, if the deal is consum- | mated; that the Wilson wing is done with the Cox } wing and that MeAdoo and Barney Baruth will pay 1-4 Off on all BOX SFATIONERY over $3.00, per box. 20: Per Cent Discount on all other Box Paper 20, Pett Cent Off on Traveling Cases and Manicuré.
