NINETY-FIRST TO ARRIVE
ON SATURDAY.
When the boys of the 91st division made their drives in Fiance
and Belgium, pride in their glorious achievements was no where great-1
er than in the west, the home of the soldiers of the Wild West unit
of the army.
Tomorrow the soldier boys are to arrive in Ogden. Among the he
roic fighters are sons of Utah, and Ogden is well represented. It
would be a slight, if we were to allow those noble fellows to pass
through without manifesting our love for them and our appreciation
of the sacrifices they hae made.
No country is worthy of a soldiers' devotion that does not show
gratitude.
Ogden should give the 9,1st a rousing reception.
i. POLITICAL YEARNINGS OF
I OGDEN CITIZENS.
tj
June is the month of brides, and May brings blossoms, but April
c 'is the time of political promptings.
It was in the month of April when more than one good man was
v induced to emerge from private life, stait on a career of publicity,
leading to notorietv and office holding, and in after life to regret it
S all.
a And this is April in Ogden and, while the buds of political ambi
tions are bursting, there are a few backward tender plants that, to
escape the early frosts, are not swelling into prominence.
Still, what is not in evidence, is made up for by reports from that
famous scrutinizer of things seen and hidden, Gossip.
r: Now Gossip says that A. R. Heywood once more is being persuad-
f ed to allow his name to be presented as a candidate for the office of
fi mayor.
"But," says Gossip, "let it not be understood that Abbott R. is
alone flirting with the gay damsel. Miss Political Chance. There is
a Samuel G. Dye, well known banker, who is not a stranger to the roses
A strewn in the path that Abbot Rodney walks. G! Samuel is cautious
en as to how he acccDts the beautiful flowers offered him, as he says
thorns sometimes are hidden beneath rich foliage."
to There is John Spargo. He is a young business man not afraid to 1
speak out in meeting. He, too, is being glibly talked about by the!
in Old Woman who tattles.
J Samuel Browning, present mayor, whose first initial is T which'
pi stands for plain Thomas, is said to be not adserse to accepting a sec-;
ond term. What he will do when he sees Abbot R. coming back can
:n! only be conjectured.
f J So here is the present line up
. T. Samuel Browning
A. R. Heywood
Samuel G. Dye
John N. Spargo
Tomorrow The Standard will continue this little serial, entitled,
"Political Yearnings," by introducing the following:
Miles L. Jones
Captain J. Ray Ward
to Earl Geiger
John Forristall.

SENATOR SMOOT AND
p McADOO.
ac
. 1 Senator Reed Smoot is offended be-
p" cause William G McAdoo insinuates
th,
that Utah's senior senator was comou
flaging when he declared his opposi
tion to the covenant of peace
Tin senator declares the amend
ments have so changed the original
that his conscience will allow liira to
withdraw from the npsl Dl thi iound
robin.
Senator Smoot should wrestle with
his conscience until he can reconcile
his present attitude with his position
at the time of signing the. round-robin
vrhen he Joined in declaring that he i
stood with George Wellington in op
position to entangling alliances with
Europe.
It will bo shocking if the senator
finally goes back on the Father of his

GENEVA AS SEAT
OF PEACE.
The New York World is pleased
over the naming of Geneva as the seat
of the League of Nations. The World
says
The Swiss city is designated as the
moral capital of the world, the site of
I the temple of International justice,
and it was inevitable that there should
be other contestants for the distinc
tion And If the award Were in re
quital for Injuries sustained in the
war, the claims of Geneva would ob-
viously be subordinate to those of
Brussels
J But it is precisely for these rea
I SOUS that the choice is logical and
sound, Geneva is a neutral city In the
Country which more tlum any other in
Europe has exemplified the highest
i traditions of neutrality for centuries.
l Is because Switzerland has always
stood for the principles of freedom
and justice which are embodied in the
i ovenant of the League of Nations be
cause It has always been an asylum
for the oppressed of other nations,
that there is ;i peculiar appropriate-
ness in the selection of om- Q its chief!
cities to keep the ark of that cove-
nant. The country that defied the pow-j
er of England rather than surrender
one of the regicides has a lone rec-1
ord of championship of human liberty,
And where else in all Europe could I
a city be chosen for this honor more
acceptable as respects situation, en
vironment and intellectual and spirit-!
ual traditions?

WHY THE LOAN SHOULD
BE SUBSCRIBED.
Monday the Victory loan will be be
fore the people of Ogden. Here is whal
a prominent authority says of the new
bonds :
It is the general verdict that the def
inite terms of the victory loan arc
satisfactory. Tne rate of return to
invet prs is increased over that al
lowed by the previous war loans.
Those who pay only Qic normal rate
or war taxation are able to obtain a
security that is exempt from all state
and local taxes as well as from the
normal federal tax. and yet yield 1
per cent on the investment. The aver
ago investor has only to compare this
return with that yielded by other safe
investments in order to realize fully
the advantages that are offered to him
in the new loan.
The four year maturity feature will
assist greatly in preventing depreri?
tion of the victory notes belos their
face value. Thus any moderate oi
f mall investor who may be forced by
accident or misfortune to sell his le
tory notes and no one should sell any
of the government's war securities un
less forced by necessity to do so
presumably will not be called upon to
Mistain even a slight loss.
While the new loan Is a most desir
able form of investment, the app il ol
the great army of campaigners cannot
and should not be limited to business
considerations. Four and a half bil
lions is a "huge amount, to raise," as a
member of the federal reserve ban!

BASEBALL ON THE
RHINE.
This is the season of baseball. With
the fine days of spring, and between
shower?, young America is out with
t be ball and bat.
We notice in the pictures from Cob
lens, German- that the American sol-J
dier? are popular with the children on
the Rhine. There is noi a group of
douphboys without a little German boy
or girl sandwiched in. In a camera
View of the old 69th, taken before the
famous n-giruent left for home, are
to be seen boys, ranging in ages from
6 to 14 years, and they are in the front
l'ne The youngsters have good faces,;
are neatly dressed in knickerbockerr ,
and show no signs of privation.
But what relation Is there between
baseball and the soldiers on the Rhine
and why are the children brought into
tho story?
Well, here is the answer:
We wonder what those boys in knee
breeches who trail after the soldiers
will be doing when thc spring itch for
baseball, that breaks out on the aver
age American, begins to manifest it
1 self at Coblenz? They will be mysti
fied at f Irat and be lo9t in the intri
cacies of the game. The German boy
knows nothing of America's national
pastime. But, before the end of this
season baseball will be a craze on the
back lots of the territory occupied by
Pershing's men
How to throw and bat and run . how
to slip and slide and catch; 'how to
yell all those things young Heinie
will learn.
The fathers of young Germany may
shake their heads, and with disgurt
exclaim "Och!" but the hopcfulb will
go on playing and at least one indeli
ble mark of the American occupation
will remain
When the troops come home and
only a remembrance of thc American
invasion is left to nag at the hearts of
the inhabitants of Rhineland, baseball
will recall the days when the athletic
Btfldlers who crossed the ocean were
