United States. but the whole country
loses a great benefactor His whole
life has been devoted to the uplift Of
his race and TO render it more fit for

very much needed. When we consider
that but a little more than a half cen

in "A state of abject bondage and ig-
norance, we must concede that the
have made remarkable prosress, and
much OF IL has been due, perhaps
more Of it than 10 any other man, to
the labors of Booker T. Washington.
His school at Tuskegee has, indeed,
become a model for even the white
race to pattern after The spirit and
methods introduced there are even
finding their way into the public
schools Of the land through vocation
al and Industrial training departments
AMI thus Booker T. Washington has
been something OF a leader among the
white men as we'll as among the
blacks. He has won the respect Of
the people of the whole land, even TO
an extent in the still somewhat ra-
cially aristocratic south. He will be
missed. not only by his own people,
but by other races that will perhaps
feel more of the burden that death
has taken from his shoulders.
For be il remembered that what DR..
washington did for the Negroes, the
race that once held them IN bondage
and ignorance has been relieved of
the necessity Of doing. 1t was his
theory, and it has worked out we'll in
practice, as it always does, that men
of all races who improve by self-im-
provement, are of a better quality
than are those who are merely boil

ment from without. He lived and
worked among his own people whose
shortcomings and impulses he knew,
and the marks of his genius have
been indelibly stamped. least To some
extent, upon virtually every Afro
Americans mind in the land.
Indeed, yes, the death of Booker
T. Washington removes one of the i'm
portant factors in the building of
American history.

European socialists have a plan for
compelling the observance OF treaties.
AS set forth by Edgar Midland, pro-
fessor OF international law in the Uni
versity OF Geneva. Switzerland. the
way TO make treaties sacred is 10
relieve all signatories OF any treaty
OF any obligation toward a violator
OF it."
How this plan would work is ex-
emplihed by the case of Belgium. He
explains that, when Germany violated
the treaty guaranteeing Belgium 5
neutrality. all the other nations that
were parties 10 that treaty would
have turned against her. Belgium
would have been aided not only by
France and England. but also by her
neutral neighbors. Il would be per-
fectly proper. he argues. for Holland

ity as at present. This security is the
result of the passing of the new cur
rency bill, which divides the surplus
funds Of the country into the various
sections, according to their needs, in
stead Of concentrating all in New
York city, where Wall ST. markets
controlled the supply Of money OF
legitimate business.
If the democratic party had done no
other thing since the beginning of this
administration, the currency measure
would have justified it's continuation
in power. The 500 million loan TO
England and France did not disturb
local margets or raise the rate Of in
terest. Under the old financial sys-
tenn every bank would have boarded
its gold and watched its reserve. The
people know that a panic can not
come on the country as it did in 1907.
1t is this feeling of security that
prompts men TO undertake great bust
ness enterprises that require years TO
carry out. And ii is this confidence
that is largely responsible for the won
derful prosperity that is increasing
month by month. Business in the
United States is on the solidest basis

While they looked and looked in

And every disappointed son Of them
Lost his commuter train.

GRATITUDE TO ENGLAND.

a citizen who disapproves Of the
critical attitude the United States has
taken toward Great Britain reminds
us that our exports have increased
about 100 per cent and our favorable
trade balance nearly 500 per cent.
And this. he says, is the gift which
the British fleet has made to Amer
lea"
He seems to think it highly I'M
grateful of us, then, to demand that
England stop interfering with such of
our export trade as she disapproves
Of
It's a curious reasoning. There S
no question that our great increase of
exports to the allies has been facili-
tated by British control of the sea.
But for all that. it doesn't follow that
We owe Great Britain any particular
debt. If she has protected our ex-
ports, il is because she has wanted
them just as badly as we wanted to
sell them to her Her fleet has been
used solely for her own purposes
Oily llltAututdllN lOA Jul ciNAN ANITA Et.
Her real motive appears in the fact
that the moment there is any ques-
ton as to whether a cargo is destined
TO benefit the allies or not, England
solves the problem by holding it up
or confscating it, regardless Of law
and precedent.
If naval conditions were reversed
and Germany controlled the sea, the
exports now going to the allies in
such volume would naturally so to
the German powers. IN that case
We should not owe Germany any more
gratitude than we now owe England
for she, too, would merely be using
her fleet for her own designs.

we owe much gratitude TO any bellig-

JAPAN'S BUSINESS.
cleveland Plain Dealer.


1t was Japan's business in the war
to drive Germany out OF Asia. The
work was done effectively and expedi-
tiously. This seemed TO be the end
OF Japan's part, and Japan ceased to
labor
Officially and theoretically Japan
and Germany are still at war But
they are not fighting. There are no
Germans left in Asia for Japan to
fight, and Japan has not conceived it
to be her duty to come over into Eu-
rope to help the seven nations that are
hammering at Germany.
Japan is the only power which
does not go beyond her own continent
to seek a sphere of influence. Europe
and America are not open to Japanese
colonization, and Africa is not worth
while. Japan, therefore, confines her
activities TO Asia. Just at present she
Is attending TO the rather heavy task
| of Japanizlng China
But the time may come when
Japan's purely Asiatic business may
compel her to participate in the Euro
pean war. 1t Will be a sad day for
Japan If Germany wins. The Japanese
attacked Germany when she was help
less, and their action Will not be for
gotten or forgiven.
II the present German drive against
Serbia proves successful the direct in
terest OF Japan in the European war
will be immeasurably increased. Union
OF Turk and Teuton will almost in
evitably mean an attack on Suez with
a good chance of success. Capture of
Suez will mean a Turco- Teuton Egypt.
and eventually a German India. Next
beyond India in the line of German ex-
pansion lies Japan.
With Serbia crushed, with Ottoman,
! Prussian, Bulgar and Magyar united
and triumphant, the japanese out
! look would be distinctly dismal. Nip
pom would probably not be invaded.
at least not for years, but a period
would be put to Japanese greatness.
So the efficient little fighters of the
mikado may yet appear in Europe.
They will appear as soon as the mi
kado's government is convinced that
their appearance would be to the in
! terest Of Japan. They will be well
coined by Serb, Briton and Muscovtte.
| There is, really. nothing illogical in
the sending Of Japanese fighters TO
| Europe. The European war has al
ready seen the drafting of Ghurkas,
/ Turcos and Senegalese by one side
and the employment Of Kurds and
Senussi by the other Japan's par
ticipation would be neither immoral
nor amazing.

: WHAT THE PAPERS SAY
ARE PROGRESSIVES FLOCKING
ANYWHERE?
(Indianapolis Star

An examination Of the figures to
find whence came the progressive
vote in Massachusetts, and wither it
has gone does not bear out the con-
tention Of the republicans that the
recent election was evidence of a
great movement in their direction.
The lineup in Massachusetts in the
presidential election of 1908 was. in
round numbers: Democrats, $1,000;
republicans. 266, 600; scattering, A.
600, making a total of $435.000. The
figures had shifted in 1912 to demo-
Gratis. $4,000; republicans, 156. 900;
progressives, 1000, scattering, 16,-
000 making a total Of 4S7 600.
There was an increase of 90, 900 in
the 1912 total over that of four years
before OF that 1000 went to the
little parties, leaving $4,000 TO be di-
vided among the others. Had there
been no progressives in the field and
had its prOportionate share of the in
creased vote, 10000 would have gone
10 the democratic party and $4,000 to
the republicans. The democrats did
record an increase of $4,000, while
the republican party lost 10. 900. That
loss added to the $4,000 the G.. o.
P's proportion of the increased vote.
equailed the 142 900 polIed by the pro-
| gressiVes.
It is quite apparent that an over
whelming percentage Of the progress
sive vote in 1912 would have been re-
publican had il not been for the split
at the Chicago convention. When
that vote dropped from $4,000 to
I 5000 last Tuesday. II would not have
/ been surprising If conditions had re-
verified TO something approXimating
those OF pre-progressive days when
/ the democrats had $4,000 and the
republicans $4,000. But such was
not the case.
/ The democrats showed up with q
\ total of $4,000 and the republicans
one OF $4,000. That was a gain OF
/ 600 for democracy and 5000 for
the republicans, total equal to the
\ 10000 the progressives lost. Appar-
| entity. while the Massachusetts pro-
/ gressives came from the republican
( and democratic parties in a ratio OF
/ something like 10 10 one, they are
going back in proportion OF eight
\ 20 FIVE. In other words they are going
whittier they please rather than
whence they came.

which our standpat friends have over
looked in Indiana II is an absolute
fact that during the year just closed

greater percentage of taxes in the his

there is less delinquent taxes on the

FARM COMMUNITIES.

Heretofore, in rural land develop
ment." says Benton MacKaye Of the
United States forest service, 1T has
always been the single farm that has
been opened up. Instead OF that the
development should include a group
Of farms. 1t is the community and
not the farm that should be the unit
Of development" If the community
plan were generally adopted, he
argues, the opening up Of unoccu-
pied land would proceed much more
rapidly.
In laying out farms. each commu-
nifty would be grouped around some
center. preferably a shipping point
on railway. The families occupying
these farms would then constitute a
sort Of rural town. Though farther
removed from each other than neigh
bors in the city, they would still have
much the same relations to each
other. The houses would be placed
for convenient access. There should
be cooperative arrangements for SELL
ing farm products and perhaps also
for buying farm supplies. Both for
business and social purposes much
could be done to add to the conven-
fence and pleasure Of country life.
Undoubtedly the chief obstacle to
modern pioneering is the loneliness of
the pioneer farm. And that obstacle
exists also in most of the older COM
munities, where farms have been laid
out as separate units rather than
parts Of an organized rural commu-
nifty.
In most European countries farm
ers have their houses grouped in little
villages, in the center OF the land they
cultivate. Thus they combine country
labor with community life. American
farmers prefer to have their houses
on their farms, and American farms
are so large as rule that the houses
are necessarily eparated by a cOnsid-
cradle distance. There is no reason,
however, why farmers can't live closer
to each other than they usually do,
both literally and figuratively.
