PROGRESSIVE VS.. ReAc1lonARv

Present-day political discussion pre-.

is or is not a reactionary i'm party
alignment-each contestant giving def
inition in strict accord with his own
political or party views; or, rather.
now affiliations. party leaders 90 be-
ing so divided with internecine war as
to presage the downfall of both.
The masses are not like to get a
fair or impartial understanding from
the said biased definitions. Herewith

ty. might well be considered an un-
prejudiced and impartial exposition of
what is what and as applied to each
Fraude, the historian. thus distin-
guishes between the progressive and
the reactionary:
Two kinds of men appear as lead
ers in times of change On one side
there are the men who have no con-
fidence in the people, who have no
passionate convictions, men who be-
lieve that all wholesome reforms pro-
ceed downward from the educated to
the multitudes. who regard with con-
tempt. qualified by terror, appeals to
the popular conscience or to popular
intelligence.
Opposite to these are the men of
faith, and by faith do not mean be-
lief in dogmas but belief in goodness.
belief in justice, in righteousness.
They are not contented with looking
for what may be useful or pleasant to
themselves; they look by quite other
methods for what is honorable. for
what is good. for what is just They
believe that if they can find out that,
then at all hazards and in spite of all
present consequences to themselves
that is to be preferred
When the air is heavy with impos-
ture and men live only to make money
and the kingdom of man is bought and
/ sold, and all that is high and pure in
man is smothered i'm corruption fire of
the same kind there bursts out in high
er natures a fierceness which can not
| be controlled, and, confident in truth
and right, they call fearlessly on the
seven thousand of Israel who have not
bowed the knee to Baal to rise and
stand by them.
They do not ask whether those
whom they address have wide knowl-
edge of history or science or philoso-
ply they ask rather that they shall
be honest; that they shall be brave.
| They know well that conscience is no
! exceptional privilege of the great or
the cultivated that to be generous and
unselfish is no prerogative of rank or
| intellect"
Do the times presage change as in
the days which brought forth the i'm.
mortal Lincoln, and upon which side
will the people line up? Are they all
looking for the right" man?

RESENT INVASION

TURAL POSSIBILITIES
OF EGYPT.

London, Nov. 30.-The Industrial in
vasion of Egypt by the Germans is
seriously disturbing English financial
circles, especially I'm view OF the fact
Just disclosed that enc of the biggest
German agricultural concerns in Up
per Egypt was originally financed by
London banks.
The agricultural possibilities of the
region IN which the German are work
ing was discovered by an expert Eng
lish irrigationist, who strollcd into the
country on his way home from some
irrigation works IN Asia Minor. Short
ly after this discovery according to
his story, a German company traveller
wandered into his camp and the lone
~ rnglishman told him all about the
possibilities Of the country due To the
discovery OF artesian water. The Ger
man went on his way and the engineer
fingered To search for the wonderful
ancient pottery sometimes found In
the region. In six months the Ger
man was back with the necessary
equipment and machinery for boring
wells and within two years the desert
was a garden. paying 20 per cent Givi-
dends to it's German owners. On his
belated return 10 London the disgust
ed engineer found that the German
company. which had undertaken the
work. had borrowed the money 10 un.

PRESENTS CASE
OF PUBLISHER
Brief Filed In Test Case on Con-
stitutionaIity of Law

Washington ID. c., Nov. 30--Former
Assistant Attorney General Beck filed
today in the Supreme Court, his brief
In the case brought by the Lewis Pub
fishing Co, to test the constitutionahty
of the newspaper publicity law.
The brief discusses fully the power
of the federal government, indirectly
10 censor the press through the regula-
ton of the mails and reviews at length
the struggle in England and America
to free the press from restraint and
the meaning of the first amendment
forbidding any abridgement OF the
freedom of the press. He denies the
regulation of newspaper ownership
and the enforced publicity of the bust
ness can be an appropriate means Of
carrying out the federal power over
the mails.
The brief argues that the enforced
publication of a newspaper company s
circumstances and publishers and
creditors would unduly burden the
power of weak newspaper, to COM
pete with stronger and In many cases
drive weak newspapers TO the wall
The attempt to compel a newspaper
to disclose either it's owners or credi-
tors or to compel it to mark as ad-
vertisement, matter which il publishes
for consideration, restricts freedom of
discussion and is contrary to the Gus
tom OF impersonal writing, which pre-
vailed generally in England and Am
erica when the constitution was
framed.
The brief further argues the appro-
prlation of newspaper columns To in
force publicity without compensation,
violates the NTH amendment. in TAX
ing property without due process OF
law.
The Supreme Court has specially set
Monday next for the arguments on
this test case.
