WOMEN MAY CONTROL ELECTION IN 1920 Mrs. Medill McCormick Makes Some Predictions Concerning the Presidency. Washington, D. C.—(Special)—Mrs. Medill McCormick, Chairman of the Republican Women’s National Execu- tive Committee, in an interview today stated her belief that no man can be nominated by the Republicans in 1920 who opposes women’s suffrage. “The fact should not be overlooked,” said Mrs. McCormick, “that over twenty states have decided to let their women vote for Presidential electors in 1920. Fifteen of these states are located west of the Mississippi. Prob- ably 8,000,000 or 9,000,000 women will vote and they will be able to dictate the choice of many electors, perhaps quite enough to turn the result one way or the other.” United States Senator Miles Poin- dexter puts his position on the pro- posed League of Nations tersely: “I am against war and for that reason I oppose such a League as President Wilson proposes, which will be simply a breeder of wars.” “The present Entente is far prefer- able to a League of Nations,” says Senator Miles Poindexter. ‘There are less chances for strife between a few nations combined together, than in a much larger organization, such as the proposed World's League.” Senator Poindexter says: “The pow- ers vested in a League of Nations must necessarily be exercised by men. If we may suppose that the mn who will first be chosen to act for the nations will be both good and wise, men to whom we can trust our great policies of state, our peace, security and the honor of our’ country, what guarantee have we that the changing personnel of the stpreme council will continue to be wise, benevolent, charit- able and humane? Good and great men have been scarce in the history of the world; and why should we as- sume that the League will be domi- nated only by the good and the great?” OLD NORTH CHURCH LANTERN BURNS AGAIN. Senator Poindexter’s speech was the greatest thing that has happened in the senate since the War of 1861. I heard him and I never saw him in bet- ter form, with all of his tremendous force in full play. The life of the nation was about to be destroyed and he was the first one to raise his voice in its defense. The others who took issue against the league of nations followed him, but he was the first to take that stand. He has left nothing unsaid that could have been said in defense of the Constitu- tion. While he spoke to the crowded gal- leries of distinguished visitors the past arose before me like a dream. I could see the lantern in the old North Church and hear the clatter of gallop- ing feet as Paul Revere rode out in the night. I could see the farmers gather- ing along the lanes of Lexington and hear the sharp reports of their rifles. I beheld Washington with his troops crossing the Delaware to attack the Hessian horde. Then I saw torn down from the battlements at Yorktown the flag of Cornwallis, and in its place arose the Starry Banner, never to be lowered again by human hands. The issue this speech has created will be the issue in the presidential campaign. It overshadows everything else taking place at the capitol. ‘On the night of George Washington’s birthday a strange thing happened; two lambs were born in the White House yard and one was named “Mar- tha” and the other named “George.” It looks like the spirit of Washington will live—W..A. P., in the Jacksonian, Camp Jackson, FAVORS A LARGER NAVY TO PATROL BOTH COASTS. Washington, D. C.—(Special)—When Congress meets again, within a few weeks, Senator Miles Poindexter of the state of Washington will become chairman of the Senate Naval Affairs Committee, according to the Republi- can reorganization plans ag finally prepared, It is understood that the senator favors the building up of a greater American navy and that he will insist upon an equal division of the battle- ship fleet between the Atlantic and Pacific seaboards. Up to this time few first class warships have been kept in Pacific waters. 4 DANGEROUS SITUATION FOR THE UNITED STATES. ~ The proposed constitution of the league of nations contains no provi- sions for disarmament. There is talk in it about disarmament, but there is no provision for disarmament. It pro- vides that the league might make a deeree reducing the armament of the several nations, Whether it will do so or not, upon what terms it will act, what the relative proportions of mili- tary strength shall be are left in the power of a combination in which Eu- rope and Asia will be predominant-— From Senator Poindexter’s address tc the Women’s Civic Association in San Francisco, When in Grangeville call at BRADBURY'S” for your Ice Cold Drinks Cigars, Etc.

Norah Martin, Sec. 19-2 ss E THE CONQUEROR WORM Lo! ‘tis a gala night Within the lonesome latter years, An angel throng, bewinged, bedight In veils, and drowned in tears, Sit in a theater to see , A play of’ hopes and fears, While the orchestra breathes fitfully The music of the spheres. Mimes, in the form of God on high, Mutter and mumble low; And hither and thither fly; Mere puppets they, who come and go, At bidding of vast formless things That shift the scenery to and fro, Flapping from out their condor wings Invisible woe, That motley drama—oh, be sure It shall not be forgot! With its Phantom chased for evermore By a crowd that seize it not, Through a circle that ever returneth in To the self-same spot; And much of Madness, and more of Sin, And Horror, the soul of the plot. But see amid the mimic rout A crawling shape intrude; A blood-red thing that writhes from out The scenic solitude! It writhes—it writhes!—with mortal pangs The mimes become its food, And seraphs sob at vermin fangs .In human gore imbrued, Out—out are the lights—out all, And over each quivering form The curtain, a funeral pall, Comes down with the rush of a storm, ‘While the angels, all pallid and wan, Uprising, unveiling, affirm That the play is the tragedy, “Man,” And its hero, the Conqueror Worm, —Edgar Allan Poe, “Umbrella Pants” and Prince Alberts May Be the Style That the men of this country will soon have to wear baggy trousers, or “umbrella pants,” was the intimation of tailors attending the twenty-third annual convention of the National As: sociation of Clothiers in New York recently. The abrogation of personal liberty is expected because of the vast quantity of cloth left on the clothiers’ hands by the war’s sudden ending. The clothiers advocated the double-breast- ed coat and the Prince Albert as means of using up surplus cloth, Record Coinage by U. S. of Undespised Penny in 1918; Rising Prices Was Reason Reports from the mints show a total of 307,614,000 one-cent pieces turned out by the United States in 1918, This is a record coinage. It stands for only a single year’s prog- ress, however, in a tide of pennies which has been rising steadily dur- ing the latter half of .the war period. The average annual output of one- recent pieces from 1907 to 1916 was about 100,000,000, Ostensibly the 1918 increase in our smallest of coins was made necessary by the call for small change to pay war taxes on goods sold at retail. Really, all sorts of economic causes are behind the rising demand for pen- nies. Rising prices of provisions and other staples have gone constantly into odd figures. At times and places of old in the United States, down on the gulf and out on the gold coast, the cent has been despised. Men boasted of spend- ing nothing less than a nickel, The copper coin now has its turn about. Nobody holds it in scorn. Poteet aad Cure Bent Backs by Suggestion. Suggestion plays a great part in the cure of physical ills of soldiers. Ac- cording to Lieut. Col. A. F. Hurst, all men suffering from bent backs can be cured by persuasion and _ re-educa- tion. The patient is told that his posture is a bad habit formed when his back was painful. He is asked to stand with his back to a wall, with his heels touching it. His shoulders are then mend? pushed back till they touch the wall, In most instances the soldier finds that in a few minutes he can stand erect without support, and after walk- ing a few times in the same posture his | First publication April 18, 1919. 16-4 cure is complete, Notice for Pubiication f Department of the Interior, U.
