The most abject surrender Of latter-day
republicanism of which there Is any rec
ord is recorded in the minority report Of
the House committee on insular affairs.
1t opposes local self-government in the
Philippines, not because the people of the
islands are not prepared for it, not be-
cause it has not been promised to them
and not because it is in conflict with
American ideas, but solely for the reason
that even the discussion of the matter at
this time may involve US in difficulties
with the warning nations.
These are the counsels of timidity and
terpret them it is as if we should say
that we cannot establish self-government
in our own dominions without exposing
ourselves to the dangers of war on the
part of Japan or Germany; we cannot ex-
tend American ideas under our own flag
except as we invite hostility elsewhere:
we cannot keep faith with our own peo-
pie because there happens to be war in
the world. and it is never safe for the
greatest power on earth to do right If
lesser powers happen to be in conflict,
Jealous. ~revengeful and greedy.
What would the republican party of Lin
coin n Seward and Sumner have said to
this shameful proposition? 1t Is the most
shocking avowal ever made in. the name
of an American political party. Our
theory that men are fit to govern them
selves may be right or 1t may be wrong,
but who in the United States ever before
suggested Its suppression through fear of
kaiSers or mikadoS?

WESTERN IDEAS OF EDUCATION
Anyone Who Wants to Learn Any
thjno is Welcome to the University.

In the American Magazine, Ray Stan
nard Baker writes. III part, as follows
about the great new movement toward
democratic education in the west:
Comparing u civilization with the
life of the bee one might a that the
chief interest of the old education was
in the development of the individual
bee, while the new education is also
profoundly concerned with the life of
the hive. 1t does not consider the stu
dent as a thing apart, or the university
as an institution withdrawn from the
currents of life-out as Intimately re-
lated. AS Dean Davenport of the uni
versity of Illinois says: 1t is not our
object to ducate men to get the better
of some other men, or even, conscious
ly, to educate leaders, but rather to
make citizens who will serve the state.
If we can inspire our students with
the feeling that they are a part of the
movement toward a better civilization,
leadership will take care of ITSELF
1.-THE western universities are succeed
ing because they are opening vast and
hitherto untapped sources of human
energy.
Their doors are open wide. Any
man or woman who wants to know
anything upon any subject is welcome.

is his all, for the university does not
yer wait for the people to co,ne to
Champaign, but it goes out in special
trains. or by special lectures or in
st%ructors. and carries its influence to
every little town in the state. 1t is
there not to stand aloof, but to serve.
ut has always been the dread of the
old leaders that somehow education
would be cheapened. that there was
something about scholarship which
must not meet the rude breath of the
world. / asked Dean Davenport al
Illinois, President Van Hise. at Wis
consin and President Vincent at Min
nesota what effect the growth of the
new department of the university was
having on the old scholastic courses
and they all answered that instead OF
being crowded to the wall these courses
We're stronger than ever. While the
number of students taking the classica.
courses, still they have had a healthy
increase. And in all these institutions

+ MISS TAYLOR MEETS
ANTON ZABRlNSki


Prisoner by Winifred Louise lay
Tor, in Scribner's.
I was visiting at the penitentiary,
and during a conversation with a
young English convict, a semiprotege
of Mary Anderson, the actress, this
young man said to me: 9" wish you
knew my cellmate." 1 replied that
already knew too many men in that
prison. But if you would only see
little Anton I know o would be
mashed in a miiiute," the Englishman
confidently asserted. AS to that pos
sibility / was sileptical, but | was i'm
pressed by the earnestness of the
young man as he sketched the outline
Of Anton's story and urged me to see
him. 1 remember that he made a point
of this: The boy is so happy think
ing that he will get a pardon some
time, but he will die here if somebody
doesn't help him soon." To crafty the
Ehgishman / consented to see the
happy boy who was in danger of dy-
ing.
An attractive or interesting face is
rare among the inmates of our prisons
Notwithstanding his cell
mates enthusiasm, ] was thrilled with
surprise, and something deeper than
surprise, Wflen L saw Anton Zabf1nSkl.
The beauty of that young Polish pris-
oner shone like a star above the de-
grading convict suit. 1t was the face
of a Raphael, with the broad brow and
the large. luminous, far-apart eyes of
darkest blue. suggesting in their depths
all the beautiful repressed possibilities
eyes radiant with hope and with
childlike Innocence and trust. My
heart was instantly vibrant with SYM
pathy. and we were friends with the
first ~handclasp. The artistic tempera-
ment was a. evident in the lender,
highly developed hands as in his face.
At a glance 1 saw that his fate was
sealed, u his spirit of hope was ir-
resistable. and carried me on in it's own
current for the hour. Anton was like
a happy child. frankly and joyfully
opening his heart to Il friend whom he
seemed always to have known. That
bright hour was ~unclouded by any
dark forebodings in regard to illness or
an obdurate governor; we talked of
pardon and freedom and home and
happiness. l did not speak to him of
repentance or preparation for death. L
felt that When the m came to
that guileless spirit it could only be a
to a fuller life.

Mrs. Heinemann's Lecture.

Mrs. Eugenia A. Heinemann,
state secretary of the Young
Peoples Temperance work,
made two splendid addresses at
the Methodist church yesterday.
In the afternoon her subject
was the Life Story of Francis
E. Willard. From the beautiful
character and devoted service
of Miss Willard, Mrs. Heine-
mann drew lessons for the in
spiration and encouragement of
women today.
At the evening service she
spoke on the evils of intemper-
ance from scientific stand
point. She quoted eminent sci
entists, doctors and statesmen
in confederation of her charges
concerning the terribly debauch-
ing and degenerating effects of
the liquor traffic. Her words
proved well that she has made
q careful study of the liquor
question, and is ready with facts
to substantiate her every state
ment on the subject.
Mrs. Heinemann's short talk to
the young people at the Metho-
dist children's day service yes
terday morning was enjoyed by
all. As an object lesson, she
used ribbons in varying lengths
to illustrate the different
amounts of money spent for
different things in a year. The
ribbon representing the money
spent for liquor was many
times the length of that stand
ing for the money used in
spreading the Christian religion,
or spent in an effort to free our
country from the sale of rum.
Mrs. Heinenfann is in every
way an entertaining and an in
structive speaker and she is
making her influence felt in the
temperance cause throughout
the state. Contributed.

Senator Willard
Back from France
Ahead of the War

Yes, we got out of Europe just in
time" said Senator Joseph II. Willard
when he and his daughter Jessie arrived
in Omaha on their return from a trip to
Europe. They sailed from France on the
German ship George Washington week
ago Sunday night and arrived in New
York a few days ago. There will not
likely be another German ship out of
there for a good, long WHILE" said Mr..
Willard, land We feel lucky to be back
home. There was not the slightest inti-
nation OF war in Europe when we left.
At that time everything was nice and
peaceable and friendly between Germany
and France. 1t was last Thursday night
that we heard aboard ship that there
was war In Europe. Then / got the re-
port that the Bank of England had raised
It's rate of interest to 10 per cent and I
knew what that meant. The ordinary
rate of interest there Is 2 per cent, and
when they raise to 10 per cent 1t Is
sign OF critical situation
So far as the currency question Is con-
cerned in America as a result OF war.
Senator Willard said: 'The currency
question will take care of itself; there
will be plenty of currency"
Senator Mlllard and his daughter left
Arthur c. Smith and his party in France
only a few days before sailing They
do not know where the Smith party is.
