Anomalies Of a War

The war flame broke out between Austria
Hungary and servia, yet those countries have
been almost lost to view in the clash OF arms.
Attention has been conferred most on Germany
aggressive campaign. and the resistance OF Bel
gium. a neutral power Again the paradox Of
Italy. about to be forced TO fight for trying to
keep out of the fight, and Russia. which jumped
into the fray ahead of Germany, hardly as yet
figuring in the bulletins from the front
still another strange feature in that Il was
at first hailed as a race war-slav against Teu-
ton--unul Anglo-saxon Britain Joined in with
Slavic servia and Russia and Latin France.
Gaping the climax is the report that japan
threatens to swoop down upon the peaceful and
inoffensive German col6nists at Tsing-Tau
thousands OF miles away from the center Of
hostilities
This is war. TO be sure; in war all is fair and
customary When we get down TO the real
facts however, will any OF these incidents seem
more anomalous than for the peace-loving. hard
working masses Of any people to be torn from
their fields, their factories. their homes and
their families and rushed off to KILL or to be
killed. because others in high station come to
the place where they can no longer agree?

Restoring Our Prestige.

writing for THE Filipino People," propa-
gandist organ issued at Washington by Manuel
Quezon, resident commissioner from the Philip
pines Secretary Bryan says of the Jones bill now
pending in congress: This bill will when
passed restore the prestige which the nation
(the United states) lost when 1t entered upon
career of imperialism"
II would be interesting 20 know how our
country lost prestige and when and where it
ever enjoyed as great prestige as 1t does today
II would seem that Mr.. Bryan never changes:
He must have been deeply enough impressed, as
I the rest OF Americans have been before now,
with the graf humanitarian service We haO
wrought for the Filipinos, but It would be too
much 20 expect him to admit that system
which ne has so bitterly condemned has resulted
in so much good to race and to the world.
Prof. Dean c. Worcester. a member of the
Philippine commission from 1900 to 1913 and
secretary OF the interior OF the island from 1901
TO 1913, shows in his excellent book, THE Phil
ippines, Past and Present" how Aguinaldo ex-
pressed the hope in 1898 that the United states
would assume protection of the Philippines for
at least long enough TO allow the inhabitants to
establish government of their own" in the or
SANITATION Of which he would desire American
advice and assistance. That is exactly what our
government agreed to do and IT has kept every
pledge up till the present made with these peo-
pie. II agreed TO give them self-government
Just as rapidly rs they were capable OF It. and
that Il what It has done. II never went m
for imperialism, as Mr.. Bryan has always
known, but neither did Il assume this grave re-
sponsibility-which circumstances thrust upon
| with the idea OF Sinking or only partially
meeting Il. rt-
What It has done for these people in seven
teen years stands forth as one Of the marvels Of
civilization. Surely even MIR. Bryan has not the
! temerity to say that his policy could have done
half as much. His policy would have been &c
/ desert the islands and leave the people TO be
come the victims OF their own ignorance and
! semI-barbarous simplicity. The United States
/ never went about national task with graveI
/ concern for the ends of justice and deeene'
than has attended its efforts TO regenerate the
FiIipinos Nor has It ever better succeeded II
any undertaking. For the head Of the STATE
department at this late day TO continue to PLAY
on the eredulity OF the natives by denouncinl
his own government in this way is almost TOO
much for him.

This arrangement would have been bet

Voting by Mail.

But for a reminder the fact might have been
overlooked that the impending primary will fur
nish the first practical experiment with our Ne
braska law for voting by mail. According to
the provision OF that enactment anyone entitled
to vote at any primary or general election may
present himself before the judges and clerks in
any voting district in the state and swear him
self in with a special ballot to be transmitted and
counted by the canvassing board Of the county
In which he would have voted II he we're at
home.
The superstition of the lawmakers when they
passed this act was that they were filling long
felt want for the benefit of a large army of vot-
ers, particularly travelling men. disfranchised at
every election by enforced absence from home.
Discussing this law the Louisville Courier-Jour-
nal expresses doubt OF It's wisdom and foIIsees
a great abuse OF the privilege of voting by mail
with a wide-open gateway for imposition and
fraud which cannot be detected without con-
test. We do not have any such fears, but rather
apprehend that mighty few will attempt to take
advantage OF the scheme. and that II will merely
become another one of our dead letter statutes
fine in theory, but unavoidable in practice.

THE COSSACK OF THE DON

The bugle rings. his steed he strides,
The battle calls him on.
And forth to meet its shock he rides
The Cossack of the Don.
The fierce red Tartar blood that flows
Down from unconquered sires
Wakes. with the joy his wild heart knows
When blaze wars flaming fires.
God help the foe that meets them wher
The Cossacks ride 70 war:
The strong. swift. bearded fighting mel
Whose friends the gray wolves are:
Who make their Coverlets the SHOWS
When they lie down to sleep,
Who faster ride than wind that blows
When they their saddles leap.
No man has seen the Cossacks sword
Turn downward in the fight:
In vain have tides of battle poured
Against them in their might
The hoof beats of their steeds are known,
with all their wandering clan,
From bleak Siberian highways down
The sun-kissed Astrakhan.
When sits the White Car on his throne
Within his guarded gate.
Brooding, with brow of gloom alone,
Upon his empires fate,
He knows, through every vague alarm,
While ships and men fight on,
He still may trust his strong right arm
The Cossacks of the DON
John S. McGroarty.
