The recent statement of John Burns, the
London Socialist leader, that true Socialism
had no sympathy with Anarchy, and that
Herr Most, In case he should come to Europe,
need expect no welcome from Socialists
either in London or Germany, is significant OF
the greater moderation now prevailing in the
Socialist movement i'll Europe. The great
Socialist Congress which assembled the
other day In Halle, Germany, was studiously
moderate in its tone. The conservative ele-
ments took control of the Congress at the be-
ginning and they have successfully held it
against every assault. Moderation was the
distinguishing mark CT everything that Con-
gress has DONE The bomb-throwing tactics
of Anarchists were contemptuouslY denounced
as the easy work of any fool The method of
seeking reform through parliamentary agi-
tation and peaceful discussion was endorsed
and in fact all the regular proposals of the
conservative leaders were endorsed. If So.
cialism is menace to society, this Congress
is of far more dangerous portent than it
would have been had the radicals of the
Most school obtained control. Its proceed
ings were of the kind to win converts by the
thousands. But 1t should not be assumed
too confidently that. Socialism in Germany
and Francois wholly menace to society.
1t is one of the great social forces there that,
by neutralizing each others power. are keep
log society and government stable. The
dominant militarism of Europe must be
counterbalanced by forces which make for
the elevation of the individual personality of
men instead of for the degradation of it to
anumber In rank and file.

The Iowa Decision.

The point raised against the Iowa prohibi-
tory law, that so much Of it as authorizes the
the seizure of liquor in the original package
while in the hands of the importer, is still
invalid, notwithstanding the recent act of
Congress which empowers the states to enact
such legislation has also, we believe, been
formally raised against the prohibitory law
of Maine. The argument made In support
OF the point is that law unconstitutional at
the time of its passage and therefore invalid,
cannot be made valid by any subsequent
event, though if that event had preceded the
enactment 1t would have rendered it constitu-
tional. The United States Supreme Court
had decided that so much of the prohibitory
laws of the states as were in the nature of
regulation of or an interference with, COM
merce between the states were unconstitu-
tional and consequently void because the
States had no authority to regulate inter-
state commerce. Up to the time therefore.
That Congress passed the act empowering
the States to prohibit the introduction of in
toxicating liquors within their borders. even
though such prohibition involved an inter-
ference with commerce between the states
there can be no question that so much of the
prohibitory law as authorized the seizure
Of liquors in the original package ana in the
ands Of the importer as of no effect.
The question is: Did the act of Congress
referred to bring to life these laws which
were admittedly dead before its passage?
One Of the Iowa Supreme judges has Just
decided that 1t did not, and that to make
the Iowa law valid 1t must be re-enacted by
the state legislature. TIE question is one
on which judges and courts are likely to dis
agree The Portland Advertiser thinks there
Is precedent In Maine which tends to show
that the opinion Of the Maine court is likely
70 De the reverse of that of the Iowa Judge.
Inc alleged precedent is the courts decision
that the State insolvency law which had

bankrupt law was revived on the repeal of

The brutal murder of the New Orleans
chief of police last week was undoubtedly
the work Of an Italian secret society. 1t
brings into prominence the interesting fact
that New Orleans has one of the oldest and
largest Italian colonies In this country made
up largely of immigrants from Sicily. This
Italian community has retained the terrible
vendetta, which has for years fourished in
New Orleans with almost as much immunity
as in Sicily. If Sicilian feels injured or
insulted, or cherishes hatred, whether it be
against single person or whole family, he
kills his man whenever he has good chance.
But he does not do 1t in an open fight The
victim has no chance, being struck from be-
hind or In the dark, generally with the sti-
letto. The Sicilian authorities do little to
suppress the vendetta, since 1t is so much an
institution of the country that even the rela-
tives of the murdered one look to 1t rather
than TO the laws for their satisfaction. The
Italians began coming to New Orleans long
before they were seen in New York, and the
vendetta came with them and has flourished
ever since. How many persons have been
killed II is impossible to say. A list of forty
killed In recent years has been published.
Hardly year passes without some assassin
atoms. In New Orleans the stiletto of Sicily
has been replaced by the pistol or shot gun;
but in other respects the method Of proceed
ure Is the same as in Sicily. The assassin
creeps up behind his victim. perhaps while
the latter is detained in conversation at a
public bar, places the pistol to his ear and
fires. There is no chance of failure. In ac-
cordance with the strange public sentiment
which seems to prevail in the South these
assassinations have been looked upon as
rather private and personal affairs of the
parties implicated, something like the duel;
and attempts to stop them have been made
with little energy. AS only Italians were
involved 1t was easier to take this course.
But Chief Hennessey has been endeavoring
to bring about more healthful state Of
affairs; and had secured the evidence

BIOGRAPHICAL SKETCH
Of Hon. J. R. Hallowell, the Republican
Nominee for Congress from the
Seventh Kansas District.

Colonel James Reed Hallowell was
born December -, 1912. in Montgomery
county. Pa. He was the oldest son OF
William r. and Margaret w. Hallowell.
His ancestors on his fathers side were of
old Quaker stock: his mother of German
and Scottish blood. When he was in his
It'll year his father removed from Penn
sylvania to Indiana and located near
Greencastle His father being a miller
by trade and also operating farm,
placed him at work at an early day, par
ticularly requiring him to perform duties
in the mill, and through his industrious
inclination he acquired a thorough
knowledge of the business.
He had the advantage of such schools
as Indiana afforded in the early sos I'M
til 1857, when his family removed to
Greencastle, where he was placed in a
class at the seminary under the manage
ment of the Methodist denomination. In
two wears he was ready to enter regu-
lar course in Asbury University. This
plan was concluded by a reverse of finan-
cial circumstances on the part of his
father. which resulted IN his fathers re-
moval with his family to Bellmore, Park
county. Indiana, where James engaged
with his father in the operation of mill.
After one wear he returned to Green
castle and entered college. and was a
member of one the classes IN that insti-
tuition when the war broke out.

WHATS THE MATTER WITH KANSAS
CITY?

What is the matter with Kansas City:
The Times pictorially declares that she
is going to "burst her bonds" Is her
commercial breeching getting slack,
her beIlyband showing,'a season-crack, or
has her steamboat failed to get back:
Such a wall for help and such cry for
her business men to rally, as she is get
ting off is little short of pitiful, Hold
carriers are implored to stiffen their
backs, dudes begged to pay up their
home tailors and everybody to inn
mediately make a simultaneous rush be-
fore something dreadful happens. She
groans about inactivity, means over
individual penuriousneSs," admits dis
COuraged manufacturers" bowls against
rate determinations" deplores ''opposi-
ton to public improvements" and scOlds
of a general disregard to home industries
Well, well, its all too bad.
With her near neighbors Leavenworth.
Atchison and Topeka all rolling in pros
perity, it is a little prepIexing if not en-
tirely unaccountable. May it not be that
her'trouble lies in the Kansas or tail end
of the corporation? Is it not barely pos
sible that there is too much of a ten
dency in the Kansas tail to wag the Mis-
souri, dog: Could it be that there is too
much cutting and slashing and packing
going on down in the Kaw boottms for
the comfort of the hill avenues: pudding
and smoke and dust in the Kansas val
ley below this hot weather for the con-
tinued health of the fellows higher up on
the Sni Hills; These are are only sug-
gestive queries. OF course at this great
distance and with only the Kansas City
papers as a source of information, it can
not be expected that the resident of a
city that is all life and prosperity could
understand but little if anything of a COM
mercial, financial and municipal situa-
ton so serious as that dipicted by the
Kansas City papers.
