By an overwhelming majority, the people have expressed their desire for a change in administration and a change in national policies. With decisive majorities in both houses of congres3 and in full control of the executive department, the republican party can have no excuse for not making good. The result of the election surprises no one-r-it was appar ent lorfg before the campaign began, a natural reaction fol lowing the war and due to the unrest and discontent prevalent In all nations in periods of reconstruction. The same dis satisfaction and restlessness that is creating industrial and political turmoil in Europe has created a political upheaval in America in the vain hope that a change in administrations ' will be the magic cure-all of human ills Salem.

The nassions and prejudices of our foreign born population were artfully played upon to unite the hyphenated citizens in opposition to the party conducting the war and sponsoring the peace treaty. " - The Republicans were well organized and amply financed. The democrats disorganized and without requisite funds. The personality of the candidates commanded slight atten tion. Governor Cox made a gallant single-handed fight against over-whelming odds and proved an able campaigner.

The final test of life is not the dis tant heights that man has readied, The captain's reputation fades if once the ship he sails Is beached, And he who rises high to fame may come at last some day to see That humbler men by patient toil have lived far noljler lives than he.

"Why not?" Brownie inquired. "Because " said Tired Tim, " because the wind will blow every house away. It will snatch up the sticks of which the hous?s are built' and carry them over the top of Blue Mountain. Then I guess you'll wish you had taken my ad vice and not built that new house of yours." "I shall be safe enough," the lazy rascal continued.

Root, Taft and Hughes promised the League in the name of the party and Johnson, Borah and Brandagee promised rejection of the League in the name of the candidate, who blew hot and cold on the subject. The peace treaty will probably be speedily ratified, with amendments, now that delay has served its political purposes. It will be said, of course, that the election is a rejection of President Wilson and his policies. With a maximum of achievement and a plentitude of mistakes, the Wilson ad ministration can afford to wait for the verdict of history. When the present generation has passed away, the name and achievements of Woodrow Wilson will live and be acclaimed 4y future generations with those of Washington, Jefferson and Lincoln, as one who helped make the world a better place to live in. To have united the vast population of this country with its divergent nationalities, opposing creeds, and conflicting -.interests was a wonderful feat of statesmanship. To have raised, equipped and transported in a few fleeting months an army of 2,000,000 men across the hostile seas and landed them in Europe without the loss of a man, where their gal lantry rendered imperishable glory to America; to have re turned them safely and quickly disbanded them without a breath of scandal, such as followed the Spanish-American war: and to have financed the whole through the Reserve hank, a creation of his administration, are sufficient to per petuate Woodrow Wilson's name in history. To have by his leadership united the free nations of the world in the war upon autocracy and become spokesman of democracy and by bis utterances to have destroyed the A few more weeks of this, and one wiH no longer be ashamed to Ask for a dollar's worth of something ' You cn say one thing for holdings.

He had nt- ,'er even thought or looking at the matter from such an angle. And after Janet went away into the dim depths of the house, he remained standing there, ponder ing old Irishwoman's answer. Suddesly his heart grew full onil the tears were salt in his thront i hot and wet in his closed eyes.

Grandaddy Beaver declared. "I saw one once before in these parts, years before anybody else in this village was born. And when I see a cyclone a-caming I cap generally tell it a long way off."
