Now he is slipping off s coat. He may need to roll uf his sleeves. | president is a mild-mannered and long-suffering man. but’ there comes a time when patience ceases to be a) political virtue. “What with ‘blocs,’ lack of leadtrship and one thing end another, it is no party secret that congress has not been delivering uccording to specifications indi-} cated by the ad: stration. Disliking to follow the tactics Woodrow Wilson in dealing with congress, the president has kept hands off. It appears that cir- umstances are about to force the administration to | get in and put a shoulder to the wheel. “There have bee signs and portents. Last Thurs-| ident gave a little party to Senators/ , Kenyon of Iowa, and Kellogg of ‘farm blocesters.’ The president nted to argue things out with them. He did, and/ when the party broke up there was perfect agreement} —that there was no agreement. “Came Saturday night, and there was another party| at which John T. Adams of Iowa, chairman of the Re-, publican national committee, was present. ‘Adminis-| tration’ leaders were on hand.

Every one of these southern Democratic senators} who took part in the debate come into court with un- clean hands. They may not have used money to se- cure thelr nomination and election but they used| means far worse. They violated the constitution of the United States by a system of disfranhisement whereby millions of legal colored voters were denied their rightful privilege of voting, by intimidation, the fear of loss of money and property and even of life it-| self if they dared to offer to exercise their constitu tional rights. No one defends the excessive use of money in poli- ties. Ford, backed by the Wilson administration, sim- ply started in through his agents to buy his way into the United States eenate. The friends of Newberry matched the Ford dollars and won. The senate so dis- covered and seated Newberry on the face of the re- turns as it had a perfect right to do. But the howl of the southern Democratic colonels comes with mighty poor grace when the titles of every) ene of them are tainted by violation of the consti-| tution. oo THE MOVIES NEED HAYS.

The decision was reached thet it might be best to make a test case out of the allied war debt refunding bill and call for a showdown on the part of the folks on Capitol Hill. The argument can be used that the funding bill can/ be tied up with soldier-bonus legisiation and the ad- istration thereby get two birds with a,single stone. “The president is likely to get his ‘vote of confi-| dence’ on this. The ‘farm bloc’ is not hunting trouble in that dire nm so long as the bonus is not hooked up with a sales tax. “This will be more of a skirmish than a real battle. from the White House and foreshadow the beginnings} of leadership, White House directed.

They cleared the jungle, ¢ many miles <f juss drainage ditches, and planted the land to sugar cane. Several of their sugar mills for crushing the cane, made in Spain of an fron of wonderful endurance, still remain in @ fair state of preservation are today objects of wonder to winter tourists. The Minorean colony, struggling agatzst the foces of nature and hostile neighbors, worked with tools of Yery primitive character. In fact they had absolutely nothing cor responding to what we know as labor- saying devices. Soon hundreds of acres ot most luxuriant growth of sugar cane swayed to the fanning .ot the trade winds. Just as a rich re ward was almost in their hands, a series of terrible misfortunes came te pass through cruel enemies, and very few escaped to tell the tale. Nature; as though jealous at the intrusion, quickiy restored the state of dense jungle, until there remained little trace of the once prosperous colony except the sugar mills and the great drainage | remarkable state of preservation and still doing useful service. During the past decade attempts, in @ amall way only, have bene made to raise sugar cane in another part of the state.

In one year or a little more, the hard roads and tramways will bring in long trains of wagons and cars loaded with sugar cane to the crnuehing mills, from which the sweet juice will Mow night and day through a system of pipe lines to the refinery, work on which has already begun.
