"Not that - .re love our country more, but that we would risk anything to harm our opponents In power" appears to he the principle upon which Senator Dodge and his son-in-law. Represen tative Gardner, are now working. In standing for preparedness for war these gentlemen are not alone. They have with them Democratic com pany which no douhl they feel has «ome unhidden to their particular monopoly of this particular sentiment, but In their attempt to make partisan Issue out of a patriotic cause we trust they will find themselves more Iso lated than they at first supposed. It 1* assuredly regrettable that such n movement should not have been Urged of partisan malevolence and a determination to turn enthusiasm Into prejudice. Against present powers. Representative Gardner, having dls rourteously rebuffed his president by yefuslng to discuss the question with him at the White House, excuses hlm pelf hy saying that he fears the presi dent means “to lay the cold hand of death upon the whole movement." So lar as the movement concerns itself with rlsrupttng discipline In the army, (encouraging Ohnuvantsm, and stirring kip party strife, we trust the "cold band of death" may he unstintedly Applied, hut we venture to say that the work of preparing our country for Idefense will go on just the same. It is amusing to henr these Repub lican* clamoring for Investigations of their own failures and errors. They deed not imagine that the public Is Atuptd enough to forget that for the past sixteen years the control of these affairs has been In Republican hands •nd they need not imagine that the present wise and deliberate adminis tration will hesitate to let the Ameri can people know the whole truth about our expenditures, what they the getting for us and what they hav* (failed to get for us. The Democrats do not want secret government, but Jin one who is truly patriotic wants ko see the fires of partisanship, hatred •nd Jingoism kindled out of the dts- I cue*ton of preparedness for war. Surely it takes but a grain or two i of common senae to bring us to a real- I I sat lon that the work of preparedness ! for war mutt he carried on In a spirit ) of sobriety, calm Judgment and a cau- ! tlous spirit of neutrality. It is In no : sense a party issue and the effort to fan the flames of party antagonism through it is unpatriotic, even to the I •xtent of being treasonable. CHANGE CHICAGO TIME. Chicago.—Reprcsentstlve* of bank ing. railway, manufacturing and other‘ Interests attended a meeting here to- 1 (lay, called by the Chicago Association Of Commerce, to dlscusa Ihe question of extending the eastern time ton* to the Mississippi rlvsr. The chunge would cause Chicago to gel up an hour earlier and go to bed an hour earlier than under the present (Central) time. “We merely want to give Chicago more daylight Into work and recre ate," aald E. IT. Kim hark, chairman of the committee. "It Is not a ques tion for Chicago alone to decide, as the change would have to be made over the territory east of the Missis sippi.” Hill US, ' x Ifi s&srifc i&sts- I J ) /nyrat/ot> a SOU-4 -SOME PMVJICAU oaj you . HOW BILLY PIG’S TAIL WAS CURLED. "Where are you going, Billy Goat?" asked Hilly Pig one morning as ltllly Goat was passing (he garden where he was working. "Oh, I am going (o the barber's to have my whiskera trimmed a. hit and have an extra curl pul In my hornH,” replied Billy Goat. "You better come along if you are going to the party over at Spotty Pig'H tonight." So he dropped his hoe, and without telling ills mother where he was going went along with Billy Goat to the bar ber’s. Now, the barber was old Mr. Dog. and when he aaw Billy Pig coming along with IMIly Goat he was very much pleased, for never before had a pig been lo bin shop, although he had tried many times to have one of them come in and have a curl put In his tail. 11l .1 1/vr 40C H4P 1 h H *rwfcVA Billy Pig watched Billy Goat while Mr. Dog trimmed his whiskers and then curled hta horns, although Hilly Ilg could not see that Billy Goat's horns curled one hit more than when he sat down In Mr. Dog's chair. He did not wish to he Impolite, though, so he sshl he thought Hilly Goat looked very fine. Indeed, and If he could look half as well himself, he should feel repaid for coming.

George Haywood, of INDOOR SPORTS not want Billy Goat to hear me say so, h»it you are a much finer looking follow than Hilly Goat, and when you got your tail curled ho will be terribly Jealous, I expect.” Hilly Pig sat down feeling a little frightened, even with all of Mr. Dog’s assurance (hat it would hurt only the least bit, if at all. All the time Mr. Dog went on talk ing and telling him what a beautiful tail he had to curl. And then something happened, for Mr. Dog had been heating tho curling Iron all this time, and when it was hot enough he wound Rilly Pig’s tail around It. Hilly Pig squealed loud enough to be heard a mile and Jumped, and Hilly Goat, who was standing outside wait ing, poked his head in the door to see what Imd happened, nnd out came Hilly l’lg, bumping into him and over they rolled on the ground. Mr. Dog burned his paw when Hilly Pig Jumped, and he wns harking as loud as lie eould, telling Hilly Pig he was a careless fellow to Jump and spoil everything when it would have only hurt one little hit longer. When Hilly Pig and Hilly Goat got on their feet again Hilly Pig kept dancing about ad squealing with pain. "Come In here," railed Mr. Dog. "If you had not Jumped you would he all right now. I was Just going to put homethlng on so you would not feel the hurt when you Jumped.” "Your tall is curled,” said Hilly Goat; "It looks a little red, hut It 1b curled.” Billy Pig stopped squealing when he heard this nnd tried to look at It. “Come In and look in the mirror," said Mr. Dog, "and I assure you I will not hurt you again.” Hilly Pig went in slowly, hut kept his face toward Mr. Dog. Ills tall was curled, hut the pain was not gone, and Hilly Pig was not sure It ever would. "Don’t you think It looks hand some?" Rsked Mr. Dog. "Yes,” answered Hilly rig, but"but It hurts a great deal to look handsdme; I would rather have It straight ” "Your tail will never uncurl." said Mr. Dog. "Tt will curl naturally all Ihe rest of your days, and you should he very grateful to me for making you such a handsome fellow."
