OUR CHALLENGE TO SEA RIVALS. In announcing plana for the constructloa of two giant sea liners. 1.200 feet In length and capable of thirty knot3

an hour, which will enable them to raa-ke the trip between New York and Plymouth in four days, the United States shipping board issues a significant challenge to America's rivals on the sea. The scheme involves the development of the Fort Pond harbor at the eastern end ot Long Island' and the double tracking of the Pennsylvania railroad, which will bring passengers into the heart of New York City without delay. At present vessels using the Ambrose channel are often held up from six to eight hours because of unfavorable tides. The great depth of Fort Pond bay permits the deepest draft vessel to enter and depart at any stage of the tide. The largest ship ever built is the Leviathan, formerly the Vaterland. 950 long and 100 feet. wide. Th AquiUnia of the Cunard line is 901 feet long and J7 feet wide. The White Star liner Olympic, sister of the lamented Titanic, is $S2 feet long and 92 feet wide. In 1901 the Celtic, then the biggest of all, was launched and it was thought she would hold the record for size. She was 697 feet long and 75 broad. Put the firt boats to Install ths wonderfully luxurious features that make an

ocean trip comparable in comfort to a stay at the finest hotel were the Mauretania and the Lusitania. The equipment of the new great American liners is to include winter gardens, ballrooms, Turkish baths, swimming pools, moving picture theaters, g: ill rooms, promenades, gym-

WATSON AND WILSON. The first time that league of nation sentiment has been tried out In this corner of the state was on Saturday at Crown Point, when thousands gathered to hear Senator James E. Watson tear into a number of President "Wilson's pet points and theory. If sentiment at the Crown Point meeting was any criterion the league without reservations would stand a ghost of a chance if put to a referendum in this county. Senator Watson's shots were vociferously received and warmly applauded. Mr. Wilson on his tour is very emphatic in his statements that the people are with him- Well, the people over this broad land must be a lot different from Lake county folk if they are supporting the propositions that the president is advocating.

There will be no excuse for not buing flowers and candy and even new hats for one's wife. Offices with roll top desks and typewriters can be rented by gentlemen wishing to conduct their business and stenographers who know how to spell will be available. It all sounds impressively modern and progressive, but some old-fashioned folks will prefer to take a simple sailing vessel, if thfy can find one, when next they go

i to sea.

ANOTHER 14 POINTS. Here are 14 points against the ratiScation of the peace treaty: 1- The Shantung provision is international piracy, bringing dishonor to any nation party to it. 2. Great Britain is given six votes to America's one, without justification in reason. 3. By entering the league America would abandon her traditional policy of non-interference in European affairs. 4. The Monroe doctrine would be subject to interpretation by the league council, as asserted by British officials without contradiction. 5. The United States would be bound to maintain armies in Europe to regulate purely European affairs. Our constitutional provision that congress shall have the power to raise armies would be violated. 7. Domestic questions, such as immigration, taril and coastwise trade, will come within the jurisdiction of the league if the foreign council so decides. 8. Insignificant nations, like Liberia, Hedjaz, etc., would have voting power in the assembly equal with the United States. 9. The United States would be bound to preserve the territorial integrity and political Independence of every member of the league, many of them monarchies. 10. By bringing the charge that it involves a threat of war, any nation could require the United States to submit any question to the league for decision11. Requiring free transit and equitable treatment

MURDER STILL SAFE. Another large mine operator has been slain in Mexico by members of that gang of Greaser cut-throats who seem to have been given letters of marque and reprisal by Venus Carranzo. It looks as if an attempt were being made to "pass the buck" for the administration by suggesting that the victim. Adam Sbaefer, was a British subject, although the American Smelting and Refining Company declares him to have been an American citizen of British birth. Anyhow, he is dead, and Great Britain cannot take action without hurting our feelings, and we cannot take action for fear of. hurting the feelings of Carranza. So the life of an American or a Britisher in Mexico has as much protection as that of a coyote-

HONOR TO THE LEADERS. When it is all over, we shall look back with gratitude to the act of the thirty-nine senators who, on March 4th, gave formal, written notice that they would not stand for surrender of American sovereignty. They were men with true vision of the future.

KICK THEM OUT OF THE COUNTRY. Another instance of trouble started by the alien slackers who hid behind our boys .during the war and at the same time tried to stab them in the back is furnished in news from Chicago of an attempt by I. W. W. agitators t6 force a strike of lunchroom employes. During the excitement some of the agitators boasted of being "Russian Bolshevists." They should not be permitted to remain in this country a day longer than is required to arrange for their deportation. Congress should provide quickly any further legislation that is needed, and the authorities should go to the limit in applying such laws as we have for getting rT3 ot undesirable aliens. Who wants them to stay? They showed their ingratitude and treachery during the war and are still showing it.

STUFF will never taste the same. EVERY n-an imagines that there is only one GREAT problem in the world AND that is the one worrying him. l'Ol'ULARITT depends on how we

WE notice an argument in a fashion magazine as to whether TOO much or too little bust development is worse BUT we decline to enter into the discussion as we have trouble enough. WHAT wo think makes no difference of course BUT it looks as if It took Redfield a LONG time to find out he DIDN'T like the cabinet. COFFE merchants are said to have found grounds FOR raising prices. A MODERN mother's idea of discipline is to FUSS all day without whipping- children BUT we don't believe it makes any difference

OUR mother used to have to Jam the DAYLIGHTS out of us when we were a young devil AND we never got any medals for GOOD behavior.

and as the handiest meant to that end hs 'invokes that great and Justifiable weapon, the strike- Under any and all circumstances he would strike or

ha would have somebody strike for him on the theory that if production It stopped capitalism will be driven to the wall and the process of dividing will begin forthwith. Undoubtedly there Is much unrest In the ranks of Industry, but undoubtedly much of this unrest is artificially created for the political and anarchistic ends of the fomenters of 'itrlfa. The great friends and leaders of labor, the president of the United States and the president of the American Federation of Labor, have pointed to the necessity for Judicious restraint and the great mass of the workers

13. The league covenant obligates the United States

to give full and frank information concerning industries adaptable to war-like purposes, thu3 putting American industry at a disadvantage, since most important industries are of such character. 14. America has nothing to gain and much to lose by entering the league.

SEVEN days more for Austria to decide whether to say "yes" or "no." Great waste of time, isn't it?

(THE UNION.) "Socialists and bolshevists are masquerading under the more euphonious and less offensive title of radicals. Everywhere this is In evidence and under this disguise the vicious elements are carrying on an aggressive campaign that is not the less sinister because it is camouflagedAnd labor must beware of the new offensive. It must stand by those leaders and those policies which have brought labor to its present condition of strength; who have made it to be esteemed because of its outstanding quality of Americanism and Its order of regard for the rights of all citizens. Under the broad term of radicalism all evil may be included as, indeed, mush good for humanity has been promoted. And danger lurks in the radicalism under which socialism

hides its viper head. For socialism,

driven forth from the ranks of labor, now posing as radicalism seeks to undermine the great institution which stands for labor in the mass and through which It negotiates Its rights under the law; it bids for recruits among the men who work by offering sophistries that are worldold. And it alms at the disruption of the Industrial and social fabric. For a socialist is just what he was so aptly described In a recent labor gathering: "A fellow who has nothing and wants to divide with the fellow who has something." And his idea of providing the means to this end Is to stop production In same way any way. Once he can bring the people to the idea that capitalism Is wholly Inimical to the man who capitalizes his labor it will be easy sledding for the socialist. Hence the radical, as the socialist calls himself these days, foments strife
