The courtmartial at &111 Diego, Cal., which tried Col
Williams for intoxication on the accusation of Gen. Butler,
brought out some testimony of unusual interest.
Two dental experts! testjfying for the defense, explained
that when, the puritanic general thought he saw his host
staggering and babbling in a maudlin manner, the general
himself may have been suffering from "dental lesions"

So here are new resources for the great .American game
of Jawing.'' Hero' are precedents that may have a wide ap
plication hereafter.).... Many and many' a witness for' the
prosecution will have his testimony invalidated by the sin
gle statement that at the time he thought he saw the al
leged; offense committed, he had a dentul abscess. Many
a defendant ..will come off unscathed by the plea that it
wasn't bootleg Ixioze at all, but a docile patient's perfectly
proper indulgence in hexyl-resorcinol. That the courtmar-1
tial discounted such bunk is most creditable. -
J . UNIMPORTANCE OF POLITICS. .
A Urilifih investigator declares the economic condition
of the' Russian peasantry is better now, under the soviet
regime, than ever in the past.
It is .quite generally conceded that business and indus
IriaT conditions, in. Italy have liccn restored to a sound
basis under the dictatorship of Mussolini,
i A,-republican form of government did not prevent the
collapse of the French franc and has not brought Germany
out of her .-war-imposed bankruptcy.
. , . ho, United States, with its republican form of govern
mcnt;'.;cnjo.vs ' iinpipcedcnled prosperity in spite of a de
moralized world .trade and European chaos.
. $reeee-has a dictator 'ami is fairly prosperous, hut Mex
ico, 'whose president is. virtually a dictator, is always bank
rupt.'' r -i ' . . '
i The iicople of Ireland are no better off economically
under home rule than they were under British rule.
; From this recitation of facts the logical conclusion is
to be drawn that politics and economics are unrelated.
Economic: ills can not be cured by the simple expedient of
changing the form of government, although under certain
conditions any form of government may seriously impair
the economic position of the country.
A pure democracy is no guarantee of an economic
Utopia and the abolition of all poverty and want would
not .he-Impossible under an absolute monarchy or other dic
tatorship. We pay a lot of attention to politics and to
the ;weather, but regardless of how they turn out, things
seem to keep moving along fairly well.
