A mere defeat, by a close vote, would not free the state from the taint of placed upen it by the action of the house. There must be decided action by the senate to kill this bill which is not| only ridiculous, but which, were it to law, would be declared un- constitutional promptly a test case to be brought. People who have this state, no matter what they think of | the wisdom or convenience of { light saving, will immensely re- leved if the Senate will, | take such a strong stand against the | passage of the bill that its passage by | the house may be considered but a phase of spring madness liable to afflict anyone or any group. been a de- fanaticism become a were pride in day- be tomorrow, PEPPER’S LEAGUE TALK. A report of the Speech of Senator Pepper aptly sums up his attitude. The report states that he believes the time has come for the United States to apply for entry into the league, “first insisting, however, that the League undergo certain changes which will make it conform on paper | to what it is in fact.” When the long discussion about en- tering the League was taking place its opponents said it sort of organization, said it was another Kkind of organiza- tion. It has the kind of organization its proponents insisted it was. Whether it is that sort an organization “on paper” or not, it was that sort of organization in the minds of these who favored en- tering it and its actions have proven it to be what those nents thought it was. No one, at the time of the Harding-Cox wanted the United States to enter league would compel this country to send troops the moment any trouble in Europe. They insisted would not require such action. ator Borah, however, speaking New Britain, insisted it maird just that.

Small favors, etc. Yes, certainly it was a hard winter and it must have been inconvenient to cut ice sometimes. A chap couldn't go out every day in his Paim Beach suit, and workers didn’t need palm- leaf fans while they were working. The ice dealers have a good alibi, looking at things superficially.

But certainly a greater shrinkage of the ice in the hot days of summer than there is of coal at any t.me.

We are sorry the ice dealers had such a hard time cutting their ice, but trust they won't lose moncy by raising the pric that a lot of ice will melt as it is car ried about the streets in the hot sum- | mer days only to be refused because the customers "have enough to last overnight.” we 50 CAREFUL!

Mrs, | Rohrer is the widow of Jake Hamon, | Oklahoma politician, who was slain by Clara Smith Hamon. Rohrer denied the charges of cruel- ity made against him in a recent di- vorce action which resulted in a de- cree being granted to Mrs. Rohrer. The decree was annulled iater so that she might file agafn in an effort to obtain alimony rights - which were waived in the first suit. A reconciliation was followed by another separation which Mr. Rohrer declared was irrecovable. “As for her statement that she is practically penniless, why I only wish I had her income,” he added. | RAILROAD YALUATION Tentative Price Put On Great North- ern System By Interstate Commerce | Commission is $395,353,655.
