SAYS KINGS MUST GO

"The king must go and democracy
must triumph" was the solution of
the European war problem, presented
by Hamilton Holt, editor of the In
dependent, New York, at a meeting
of the Sunday Evening Club at Or
chestra Hall. -..
Democracy must triumph and the
king must CO." he declared. There
must be political organization bind
ing the nations together; law must
take the place of war. There must
be the cultivation of friendship
among all classes of people. -...
After the war is over" he said,
there ought to be no more secret
alliances among the nations. The
doctrine of the balance of power
ought to be given up.
mo king ought to be allowed to
declare war. If war is declared it
ought to be declared through the rep
resentatives of the people" ~

NEWSPAPER TRUST ATTACKED /
BY JUDGE SCULLY

Just how the newspapers have lost
out with the people as a result of
their attitude in the past is shown in
the way the people are taking the
attacks of Judge Thomas F. ScuIy,
Democratic nominee for county
judge, on the newspaper trust.
Scully has been denOuncing the
trust at from five to eight meetings
all over the city each night. These
meetings are attended by representa-
tive voters. And every attack on the
newspaper trust is greeted with
roar of approval.
Before these people Scully has ex-
planned the way in which the news
papers attempt to secure control of
every candidate who appears to have
a chance of election. ...
'You have probably read denun-
Citations of me in the trust papers"
ScuIy is telling the people. Their
attacks have never hurt me very
much. And l am glad to say that if 1
am elected l will not have to wear the
collar of Vic Lawson, the McCor-
micks or Andy Lawrence.
You people have seen the dan
ger of the newspapers controlling the
public offices. You saw it very clearly
in the newspaper strike of two years
ago when the newspaper trust practi-
cally ran the city.
"And yet these papers are still try
ing to tell the people who they should
vote for. Just how far they succeed
ed was shown by the recent primar-
les. l was in a very hot fight. The
newspapers said some very nasty
things about me. ..-.
But went out to the people. And
the people, who were weary of the
hypocrisy Of the newspapers, gave
me the nomination"
ScuIly is also attacking the alli-
ance between John NorthUp, his Re-
publican opponent, and Charley De-
neen and Roy West.

FAST DWINDLlNG
The city's $14,OOO,0O0 traction
fund, supposed to be used some time
in the future for buying street rail-
ways, will be grabbed off before it
ever gets big enough to buy a real
street railway with.
This is the view of the Union
Leader, the official paper of the street
car mems union. The paper discusses b..
action at the last council meeting and
says: -..
THE traction fund has dwindled a
million. HarbOr bonds have been
substituted. Little chance is there Of .
this traction fund ever being used for
it's original purpose. That is~cOnced-
ed by all practical observers who care
to express their honest belief. Nor
will it ever be able to meet the ever
increasing capitalization.
This fund of $14,00O,000 has been
taken from the nickels of passengers, .
most of whom are workers, and from
the wages of street railway employees. =
The reason for the traction fund is
joke and the passengers and en-
plOyes are the victims.

The Civil Service Employees Not Yet
Masters

1t is comforting to know that while the civil SER
vice employees. in conjunction with the police of this
city were able TO defeat the Mayors police reform
legislation, they were not quite strong enough TO
pass their own bill putting them into the court re
view or permanent job class. Yet they lacked only
four votes of the 76 required for passage.
For another year the public, which pays these
men their wages will be free from their dctation
of conditions under which they will consent to draw
the wages. The next time their bill comes up II is
TO be hoped the public will be sufficiently aroused
at their mpudent lobbying for special privilege over
all the other wage in the country to defeat

The division of Mexico, which is suggested II not

II is quite true that there is marked difference III

respectively north and south of-let us say-San
Luis Potosi But differences Of character do not

Racially and historically the country is one. and
logically il should remain There would be no
more assurance Of peace and stability in each OF
the two parts than in the unbroken whole. Central
America was not improved by dividing il into five

certainty Of hostties between the two states.
We cannot see. either, that relations with this

who are dancing this year. The soothing effect or

May this be true. 1t differs from almost every
other prescription we have seen in being

too good for belief, it seems. Yet if the doctor
says we must, why. of course must.

The Latest Sure Thing" in Racetrack
Gambling.

The spread Of horse racing and betting on races
in Germany has been rapid in recent years. 1t has
accompanied the growth of interest in outdoor
sports Public gambling there has had much the
same effects as it had here. 1t has demoralized
many people Of small means who cannot afford to
lose. Instead of suppressng the "bookes" as we
have done. the German government has tried to
discourage betting by diverting the profits OF the
odds LAYERS and the winnings Of the lucky into the
public treasury.
The "pari-mutuels' are to pay a commission to
the government of 1919 per cent. The bookmakers
are 10 pay per cent on the money they take In
and the winners are 10 pay from to 20 per cent
on what they win. t is an ingenious. open-handed
scheme After q season two all the floating CAPT
tai about the racctracks will have passed into the
possession of the German government There were

rnentcd institutions for the improvement OF the
breed But no American with money to burn ever

the feminist movement, and says in con-
clusion that their differences "are dia-
metrical except on the plane where all
the groups meet-in the demand for wom-
ans judicial and political equality with

suffrage ought, above all, to be demanded
from the point OF view OF the social value
and consequent right Of freedom Of move
ment OF womans powers" These senti-
ments can scarcely be considered the point
Of view which an anti-suffragist would ex-
press.
Mrs. Hale also stated that the other
leading femin;sts, W. j. George and Dora
Marsden. were anarchists. who did not
believe in any government and. therefore,
they could not be classed as suffragists.
II this be true, then the suffragists are
guilty Of recommending books written by
avowed anarchists as desirable reading
for those who wish to be enlightened on
the question of woman suffrage. In A
bulletin issued by one OF the suffrage as

that he was. almost an unknown poet TO the larger
public of the world He is dead. rich in years ana
in the affections of his fellow ProvencaIs, with out
scant fame for the real genius that was DIS.
The attempted Gaelic revival in Ireland comes 10

movement Both lands are rich in sentiment rlch
Of tongue of varied memory. But there Is FMS
great difference: That whereas Gaelic has dwndled
TO the edge of being dead language Provencai mas
maintained n lively existence on the tongues or
those who were born to II.
1t is not hard for any on who loves his South OF
France to understand why Mistral deliberately
chose his native dialect as his literary vehicle. As
another Provencal poet has said: Il love my village

than thy province; I love France more than all
Warm and tender is the country and the speech,

high roads with their swiftfying motors.

Making Jailbirds Support Their Families

Legislature provides that these men may be EN-

and that wages Of 20 cents day may be paid, not,

Hitherto the prisoners have been maintained In

A HINT FOR THE EXPRESS COM.
PANIES
Pilferins from Farmers Shipments IA
Large Source of Complaint.

To the Editor OF The Tribune.
Sir: Facing serious competition from
the parcel post service the express com.
panies are now widely publishing new
rates and making special bids in various
directions for new business To the farm.
er they are giving allurlng rates and
other inducements, but / fail to read any
promise to deliver intact 10 the consignes
the products intrusted TO them.
IL is a notorious fact that extensive p-
fering is done from fruit and vegetable
shipments while in the hands OF the ex-
press companies. My own experience con-
firms this. IL very rarely happens that
any box or crate sent from my farm
reaches its destination without having
more or less OF its contents removed
This evil is not confined 10 any par
ticular locality, as I know Of Others vide
~ separated as are Ohio, Connection,
and Long Island who complain Of the
same conditions. In view Of this the e1-
press companies will have 10 give some
assurance of safe deliveries If they eA'
pect the farmers TO irtrust their smaller
shipments 10 them. y. y. FARMER

Ulster, the Officers and the Enlisted Mer

One factor in the British army situation is not
sufficiently understood taken into account enough
here. And that is the actual dislike which the sol
diers and their officers feel for the Nationaliss.
The reason for this dislike is simple The National
lists took an anti British tone during the BOer War.
Some of hem even fought on the BOer side. One OF
them Mr. Lynch convicted of treason. now
occupies Nationalist seat In the House OF Com
mons The British officers resented the fact that
they were asked-as they thOught-to pull chest
nuts out Of the fire for a party which they con
sidered their natural enemies.
And the enlisted men-"Ihe Manchester Qua r.
dian" to the contrary Observation-Disclosures exactly
the same way. They are said to have cheered
Cough on his return TO the Curragh. They. more
than their officers. have been declaring that they
would not shoot the CoveDanters The men Of the
ROYAL Scotch Fusiliers said six months ago.
They were transferred. The of the Cheshire
Regiment said so three months ago. The Dorsets
and the BedfOrds are saying now.
For the uniform which they has been a
badge of tyranny to the Nationalist for time out
Of mind The British army in Dublin is hooted.
The flag is booted The enlisted have been
