A OHANCHS OP TACTICS
If David Lawrence, the independent and un
trammeled newspaper correspondent who is ac
companying Mr. Wilson in hia countrywide
tour, is right in interpreting the president's
speeches aa a change of tactics by which the
chief executive turns his philippics upon the
group of senators who seek to reject the treaty
altogether and holds out the olive branch to
the "mild reservationists," even declaring his
respect for this form of treaty criticism, then
the way to compromise is clearing. Moreover,
it is clearing because the president foresees
that there will be reservations or a total break
down to his treaty program. It will help when
this realization is aeeepted by both the presi
dent and his supporters in the senate, for then
effort and action will foous on a measure dis

necessary votes. Some such outcome has been

Des Molnea Register: The main
cause of present day discontent la the
fact that we are setting more for our
labor and lesa for our money.
Webster City Freeman-Journal: The
president, as evidenced by his
speeches out in Oregon and California,
is again playing on the non-partisan
string. He always does that when be
thinks it the best policy. Too bad he
didn't think of non-partisanship when
he was selecting somebody to repre

Council Bluffs Nonpareil: A few
weeks ago we were led to believe that
this country was going to the demnl
tion bow-wows because of the nefari
ous practices of the profiteers. But
they are still serenely doing business
at the old stand and are advertising in
the newspapers that prices are likely
to go still higher. Looks like this talk
of "getting the goats" of the profiteers
was nothing but political piffle.
Dubuque Telegraph-Herald: As long
as that treaty is dragging on the way,
it's a pity the people can't decide it at
the fail elections. ..*•
Iowa Forum: Senator Kenyon has
made upon the league of nations
speech that is certainly a pleasure to
those of his friends who agree with it.
The extent of the agreement is, of
course, a point yet more or less in
dispute but very certain it is that
the extent of agreement is much
greater now than would have been the
case with a similar spcech six months
ago.
Des Moines Register: Nowadays a
man considers himself in luck if he
gets through the day without discov
ering that something has gone up in

AMUSEMENTS.
"She Walked In Her Sleep."
"That which pleases long and
pleases many must have merit," is an
'Old adage which applies at the present
Itime to the most amusing farce "She
Walked In Her Sleep" which comes to
the Grand tomorrow night. The play
is an up-to-the-minute farce and- the
possibilities of the plot rest upon tho
'sleep-walking proclivities of a charm
ing young woman who wanders in a
somnambulistic state through the
rooms of a hotel, showing an uncanny
tendency to enter the roonrt of young
married couples and perfectly proper
bachelors.
The situations are screamingly
funny and the dramatist has dwelt
only upon the most Innocent features
of a most natural complication. Noth
ing of the risque Is needed to make
"She Walked in Her Sleep" one of the
funniest farces ever presented and
nothing but the best of comedy can be
used to carry out this particular idea.
Por that purpose a perfectly balanced
company of actors has been brought
together to interpret the farce and the
production is complete in every detail.
"Mutt and Jeff."
Next Saturday that best of all popu
lar priced musical farce spectacles,
•'Mutt and Jefrs Dream" comes to the
Grand with everything rearranged,
sparkling and rejuvenated. Mr. Hill
has replaced everything hertofore
used with entirely new up-to-date ma
terial and the consequence is a brand
new and thoroughly finiBhed farce
comedy, spectacular review of the lat
est fads and"funny things of the day.
"Mutt and Jeff" has long since earned
the top-notch position among extrava
gant farces. A brilliant and prettily
costumed chorus of youthful maidens
assists in the attractively arranged
ensembles and the modern popular
music leaves nothing to be desired in
a musical way. The specialties are
the best that ever appeared in any
musical farce comedy. A wealth of
money has been expended this season
to costume it beyond the fondest
dreams of the indulgent public.
