OUR BOVERBIOTY.
When a reglly clever and clears
minded maa clings to a sophistry
what don* ho expert really clover
and olwar-nvinded men to think of
him? Mr. Oacar Underwood aatd In
hie speech on the Panama ("anal tolls
question that 'the moat serious sur
render that the advocates of the Brlt
iah contentions desire to niakn la the
admission that we are not sovereign
In the Canal Zone "
Mr Underwood knows very well
what the I nitial Slates does not now
want and never did want to bo sover
eign in iho canal sons. Ho knows
that this country has pledged Itself
to certain regulations In the canal
tone, which It cannot disregard, uni
that it has never boon contemplated
that we should exercise full sovereign
rights over the canal
We biiiH the canal under a restro
tion upon our sovereignty, which wa«
clearly understood and freely acceded
to when the Hay-PanßCefote treaty
was signed. We are comltted to cer
tain other restrictions upon our sov
eroign'y through our lease of the
zone.
Mr, Vndsrwood aprons th*t except
fop fvittstwise shipping "the csniU
shall be frwe and open to the vessels
of commerce and war of all natlona
on equal terms,” »s the treaty speci
fies.
The New York World points out
that if we were sovereign over the
canal rone we could exclude the ves
sels of all other nations. We could
make the canal Rn American highway
open only to American ships. *<e
could give American vessel* an abso
lute monopoly of Its use. We could
done it to everybody except our
selves.
The mystery seems to be that Mr.
Underwood accepts certain restrle
eions but would repudiate others.
Why should not the ftrltlsh conten
tion accept this admission that we
are not sovereign just as surely on
the restrictions Mr. Underwood ac
cept|F as upon the one he would re
pudfcte for the purpose of granting a
subjdy?

Speaker Clark
Hi* Break With the President and
the Significance of It.
(From lit* Providence Journal.
If he takes a conspicuous part
aialnst the administration on this Im
portant lasuo the guapit mn will nat
urally ha aroused —though perhaps
without sufficient reason -that he Is
ready for a break with Mr. Wilson on
the question of the IltmomUc prer-l
--t uentlal nomination In 1918. Mr. Clark
has never forgotten what happened at
i Baltimore In I*l2, and It is possil le
that, reviewing hi* primary trlumpn*
In liiat year, he thinks a wider appli
cation of Ihe prirpary system im
, years home would give him a fighting
- hance to win the prise. Hut times
lists changed and the President's
I prestige has been vastly augmented.
The Question of Motive.
(From N«-w York Kvonlng Post.)
Wo will n»t question his motives. It
Is freely put about that he Is prepar
i lug to contest with Wilson the lead
t crshlp of the democratic party In I*l6.
But this would Imply a density on his
part greater than we have ever credit
ed hint with—and we have always been
generous In conceding him possesion
of that quality. His political ambi
tions may have been craftily played
upon by enemies of Wilson, hut they
would he the firs* to think It a huge
Joke for anybody seriously to suggest
that t'hamp Clark cun ever be elected
President.
Biding His Time,
(From the Poston Transcript)
The formal statement of Hpeakrr
Clark of Intention to antagonize the
administration's toll repeal bill gives
the presentation of a "gag rule'' as the
occasion for Ills revolt, but the cause,
as distinct from the occasion. Is plain.
Mr Wilson was nominated at tho Bal
timore convention, Mr. Clark was de
feated The cup of success was nutch
ctl from the rpeuker's lips just as he
begun to inhule its exquisite bouquet.
Ever since his Baltimore defeat the
speaker ha.< bee nbidlng his time, . .
That Speaker Clark has been led by
his personal bitterness and desire for
revenge Into a course perilous to his
own future Is a, plausible conclusion.
The house Is likely to support tie-
President snd we shal Isee the speak
er humbled hy It. A speaker who
heads a revolt against his party ad
ministration and falls has emphasized
the power of the former. He does not
become "available,” but quite the con
trary. Men worship not alone the
rising sun. hut the sun thnt breaks
through clouds and dissipates the
mists.
Former Opponent of Subsidies.
I Front the New York Tribune.)
No man In Congress has a clearer
record of hostility to direct subsidies to
manufacturing or shipping Interests
than Mr. t'lsrk has. He was caught
uoping two years ago. Just as Mr.
\\ llson was, bv the misleading argu
ments made by the free tolls conting
• ni His eyes are open now. If he
speak* ond votes for subsidies he will
bt.-ak with his convictions of many
ycurs (the year 1912 excepted), and
will show a petty nnxlety to withhold
fr ,m a Democratic President thnt
vote of confidence without which the
President, according to his own testi
mony. will be henceforth at a loss in
rordiiftlng this country' s relations
with foreign countries.

Daysey Mayme
And Her tolks
There are time* when Da)*oy
May tun Appleton, after languidly eat
ing the breakfast h*r mother ha* pre
pared, ha* retired to h'*r room that
•he may not he annoyed by the dust
f ng before her mother * broom, uor
have her nervo* racked hy the chatter
of i an* and UUhes, and there haa
given way to moods of deep depres
sion.
It I* then when ah* feel* her uge
lessiiess to the world; It I* then that
she dreams that life must tnesn mote
than fudge*, rouges and writing the
hungry longings of one’s soul In a
diary; It Is then thnt she become* to
absorbed In listening to a cry from
the wlldernes* for help that »he grow*
deaf to tho cry for help from the
kitchen, thu* proving that her longing
to do good I* essentially modern.
It was billowing one of these moods
of deep depression thnt she enlisted In
settlement work. With no working
knowledge of the difference between
a pie and a puree, and a di*|>o*ltlou to
heal the »lrk and the suffering by the
suggestion that they rest in the Arms
of Encircling Good, rather than en
gage In the plebeian task of making
a mustard plaster, she felt well
equipped for the work before her. No
one, she knew, had memorized more
helpful i oems than herself.
She had railed on a woman in one
of these neighborhoods where wifs
heatlng Is the king of Indoor sports,
and. with many apt quotations of
poetrv, had essayed to cheer the
weeping wife, whose countenance, be
fitting one who engaged in such royal
sport, was rapidly becoming purple
There were a half dozen children In
the room, ranging (rom six weeks to
ten tears, and the sight was one that
made Daysey Mamye contented with
*1 insterhood.
The husband, tho woman explained
a* the wept, beat her every day, and
never earned a cent. The story
aroused Daysey Mayme’l Indignation.
"I wouldn’t let a man beat me that
way," ahe aald In a burst of wrath.
The woman paused in her weeping
Pushing the straggling locks from
eyes that were fast swelling shut,
she asked;
“Have you a husband? —to which
Daysey Maytne responded that she
hadn’t.
“Gee” snid the woman, looking com
mlseratlngly at her visitor as well as
she could through the half eye-that
was still visible "it must be tough
to be an old maid!"
MISS FEBRUARY.

Things went along this way for a
couple of days and Bill did not go to
see Einllv —until, coming home one
evening after work, the landladv told
him a young lady and her mother had
been there to se? him that afternoon
and were coming back that evening.
When Bill heard this he was for go
ing right ou; and not coming back
until late. As he started out the
front door he met Emily and her
mother coming in. H. C.
