Fifty-six years ago on the '9th day of November, 1863, Abraham Lin coln, standing upon that holy ground, at Gettysburg's famous battlefield, where sleep tens of thousands of men who ' there died that this republic might live, spoke these memorable words: "It is, rather for us to be here dedicated to the great task remaining before us than from these honored dead wo take increasing devotion to that cause for which they gave the last full measure of devotion; that we here highly resolve that these dead ball not have died in vainj tbat this nation, under God, shall have a new birth of freedom and that the gov ernment of the people, by the people, for the people shall not perish from the earth."

GAME LAW The law makes it a misdemeanor to kill quail, pheasant and wild turkey at any other time than between No vember 15 and January 15, and it is a violation of the law to sell game birds of any kind, or to ship same out of the county. NO LOGICAL ANSWER Senator Medill McCormick of Illi nois is tireless in his search of all sources of information on the peace treaty. He is a constant student of the debates in the English Parliament, the French Chamber of Deputies, and the Canadian Parliament. Mr. Mc Cormick quotes from the proceedings of the House of Commons of Canada to prove that our Senate is not alone in its contention against the in equality of giving Great Britain six votes to our one in the league as sembly. Recently Mr. Fielding, a member of the Canadian House, spoke as follows: "I think the claim has a large measure of logic in it, when they say it is unfair that they, a Nation of over 100,000,000 people, should have only one represen tative in the assembly of the league of nations, while the British empire has six. I do not see any logical answer to them." NO PLACE FOR STRADDLERS The politician who tries to dodge or straddle on the question of putting public welfare ahead of the interests of a few labor unions will find that the great majority of the voters have little use for a straddler. ; Just before we went to press wi this issue of -the paperr news was received t this office that J. , C.
