"Half a lenirue! Half a league! il;iif a l-.t;"J-. onward! -l;itc the Jaws of death; into the mouth- of hell orii' one has blundered." A iid the question L are William Howard Taft, and other adherents of the cause of world peace, still bun- decehad by Fen. Warren G. Ilardinff'old two-facednessi. Do they still believe that the as-?uranc-s which en. Hardlr.sr has Riven them of hn friendliness- toward a L-aifue cf Nations wa worth anything? Sep.. Hardinc has been playing faJt and loose with the numbers of hia party in the matter of an international apreem-nt to prevent wars. Sens. I'.orah and Johnson, who are declaring that Amerlrn rii'ivt entr lnta no agreement with any European nation, can not be in harmony with former I'rfd't Taft, yet Sen. Harding, until recently, has iretended to subscribe to the opinions of each faction. Mr. Taft is president of the organization of several years' standing to enforce the peace of the world, yet he is working for the election of Sen. Harding, who only a few daya ago declared that th" idtn.s of Sen?. Dorah and Johnson on the League of Nations were in harmony with his own and Sens. Horah and Johnson want no agreement of any kind with the nations on peace. There must be a larpre number of republican voters who are not being deceived by the devious path taken by Sen. Harding on the paramount issue of the campaign. Voters who feel that only an agreement between nations can prevent war can hardly be misled by the declaration at Sen. Harding for an understanding patterened after the Hajrue tribunal. The hypocrisy of tho republican party in its dealir . s with the peace treaty and tho League f Nation must be plain to every voter who Kiv?s thought to th subject. The party Is pledged to destroy the League so far as the United States is concerned, and it is ready to make a separate peace with Germany. What can republicans who t,avo their sons in the cause of democracy think cf the proposal? o THE LURE OF THE OPEN. One envies tho two Brooklyn boy scouts who have Juh: completed a Journey afoot to the Pacific coast and back. With their feet planted on the soil at every step of the journey they ?aw a thousand Interesting thinsrs that the ordinary' traveler misses. The latter usually leaves the train only at cities, and American cities are more or less standardized. The streets of New York. Chicago, Denver and San Francisco present much the same appearance. To be ?ure, the railway traveler sees from the car window the striking features of the land.wape the farms, the towns, the rivera, the mountains; but only the pedestrian has a chance to observe in a leisurely and appreciative manner the changes in fauna and llora and the variations in the interests of the people that are encountered in crossing the continent. Few can spare the time for po long a journey. But all can have at least a taste of the pleasures of cross-country walking. There Is an almost country-wide resumption of interest In the formation of hiking club.s, afilllated with tho Lragud of Walker", an international association of pedestrian and alpine clubs, which offers prizes fordhe most lnteresMnply written narratives of walking trips and gives medals for such feats as the walking of 30 inlhvs in 24 hours. Organization of a hiking club is commended to the attention of persons who seek companionshiu on the r walks or d "5i-e guidanc? as to the mP.i. interesting routes for short Journeys afoot. o If John D. Rockefeller ha any worries about dying rich he might overcome some of them by cutting the price of gasoline. o A married man never seems to appreciate tho exercise he gets by Jumping through a hoop at tho command of his wife.

With the cost of living going down, the holdun men may not think it necessary to rob so many banks. o

More Truth Than Pcetry By JAMES J. MOiNTAGUE

BETTER HOLD POSTMORTEM. (Laportc Argos. ) The speech at Marion from the tool of the reactionary element and the parrot of the senate cabal was so al.Mird in its misrepresentations and sbrazen in its implied falsehoods that It would be beneath comment but for the fact that the speaker aspires to the leadership of the American people. The suggestion that tho president scrapped "his own League" might make an Impression on a kindergarden class, or an aggregation of mental deficients, but it will appeal to the people generally as a pitiful exhibition of skulldruggery. So Ignorant does Mr. Harding appear to be of International affairs that he apparently does not even yet know that the League has not been scrapped at all. On the contrary sirae Harding and Watson and the other reactionaries of the senate prevented this country's partim ipation in the great world-wide movement for the preservation cf peace, nation after nation has been hastening to the council chamber of the League. A league to which 4 0 nations have subscribed 1 an scarcely bo scrapped by 4 0 members of the senate of this country. The only thing the.se senators have strapped is the faith and honor of the nation. And it is pitiful, too, to Und a presidential nominee resorting to such cheap devices of deception as to say: "I give you a solemn pledge that as i.ng as I am president of the U. S. there will never le ar.y .-ort cf a substitute for the Stars and stripeK." Here we have the implied lie that pom is urgir-.g a substitute for tne Stars and Stripes. And that the Stars and Stripes are to be Kived by

th. g.4ng that has cone all within its power to plac upon the banner the -tain of national dishonor. The"'

pa. -rile nature cf this curbstone stuff lie in the fact

, that Mr. Harding tells us th: 40 nations of the

.arth have accepted a substitute for their Flags. What rot. And from a candidate for president. If Mr. Hnrdir.g would retain even a little respect ct the people he will either remain iient or come forth hke an h.n.st man and tell the people what h really does intend. The promise that he will invite th, iC-od-i nations now in an operating: League to v-rap that League and then get together in an effort to fir.d a .ub.titutc in manifestly dishonest. Mr. Harding cannot be so stupid. If he means by this

; that he v.-j.i permit us to sr.-nk ;n the back door, as j Mr. Borah appears t suspect, he t-hould have the j courage to so declare

The Horoscope

WEDNESDAY, OCT. 13. While the astrological testimonies hold a prospect for important and unexpected change, with satisfaction as regards the financial returns, yet a degree of caution need be exercised to avoid an influence sinister in its bearing upon affairs. The menace- relates plainly to the possibility of deception, fraud or betrayal to false friends, or through subtle attack. There is a malicious portent calling for constant precaution. .There is also some danger from ill-temper or rash and impetuous conduct. With these warnings heoded. important interests should flourish. Those whose birthday it s have the forecast of a prosperous year if they govern their tempters and guard against fraud and treachery. A child born on this day should be clever, successful and fortunate in its undertakings.

I1LMA. Irma is one of the many feminine names derived from Teutonic mythology. Its evolution is somewhat involved, and it cannot be definitely determined when or how its final form which comes to us as Irma, was reached. It is evidently the

Ansriiclzation of a patently Teuton- ! ic form. Curiously enough it sigr.i- j fies "public peace." , Tracing Irma back to its mytho- I logical origin, it is revealed that the third son cf Mannus was said to; bv Er. a deity worshipped as Irman ' or Ermln. The evolution f this j word through German nomencla- j ture, i irrelevant here, but the curious fact remains that its feminine j form appears In the Teutonic language as Herminie, not Irminle or Irma, as one might suppose. 1 In Italy, however, the name Er-; melinda arose and named a saintly ; virgin of the Sixth century. Spain had already received Irmln, and had , proceeded to give it various interpretatlons. until a certain Hermen- t burga was discovered among the roval princesses. This lady was of- !

red in marriage to a i-rar.K King..

but the honor was declined. Ermesinda was the name of the lady who carried the blue blood of the Balten to the line of Alfonso. ; Her name meant public dignity.
