SHAKING OFF THE WINNERS.

December exports over imports
were 900, or the largest
ever known. The January figures,
yet to come out, will be even larger.
Partial returns for the first week in
February indicate balance of ex-
ports over imports of $44,5O0,000
This is at the rate Of $3.50, 100000 a
full month and above OO0,O0O,0O0
a year, and President Farrell Of the
United States Steel Corporation has
said that the practical assurance of
a balance of at least 1000, 100000
for 1915 ought to mean an unprece-
dented Industrial boom.
This is not only what it ought to
mean. 1t is what it must, mean as
an irresistible effect of trade forces.
The calamity howlers will howl in
vain, and vain in the end will be the
efforts of the standpat obstruction
lists to stop it. The country is al
ready in full command of all the for
eign exchanges, its outside debt is
being paid off at an unprecedented
rate, and even gold exported at the
outset of the war is beginning to
come back.
The winners who whine from hab-
it or for political effect, or to regain
a hand-hold on the public treasury,
will continue to whine. The country
is now in a way to move along with
out them.

HOW LONG?

Does the United States senate re-
alize the effect produced .on public
opinion by its childish and idiotic
performances over the ship-purchase
bill?
This is supposed to be govern
ment that rests on the consent of the
governed-in short, a government by
popular majorities. The two houses
of congress are supposed to deliber-
ate first, and then act. Deliberation
over the bill in question ended in the
senate weeks ago, and was succeeded
by an attempt on the part OF the
minority hitherto successful
prevent the will of the majority from
prevailing This means contempt for
democracy, contempt for the consti-
tuition OF the United States, contempt
for popular opinion.
The minority senators ought to
teke counsel with selves. This

A GREAT BIRTHDAY.

A glance at the list of men born
on Feb. IL is almost enough to make
one superstitious.
This day gave Lincoln to America
and to the world, and for that alone
deserves to be celebrated to the ends
of the earth He is one of the most
splendid characters in history, and
he is all our own. Some smartly
sophisticated critics have told us that
Lincoln was not typical Ameri-
can" because he possessed an ele-
rental patience foreign to our rest
less breed. That may be true-but
Will the cavaliers tell US where, ex-
cept in America, such man could
have risen to the chief magistracy OF
nation and won a place in the
heart of great people like that
which Lincoln holds today?
Across the water, on the same day
OF the same year, was born Charles
Robert Darwin, by common consent
the greatest figure the scientific
world has known since the death OF
Newton. The history of some Of the
most important branches of human
tbousht is divided into two periods,
that tetore Darwin published his
Origin of Species" and that since.
Moreoye.-a religions have been
founded on less curious condolences
than this--Darwin had the same
limitless patience and kindness that
distinguished Lincoln.
Go little farther. Thaddeus
one of the finest heroes
of brave and unhappy Poland, was
born Feb IL, 1746. John Winthrop
the younger, who coaxed charter
for Puritan Connecticut out of
Charles H., was born Feb. u, 1906.
Peter Cooper, whose philanthropies
have we'll nigh eclipsed his industrial
genius, had the same suspicious
in 1891; and Elizur Wright
abolitionist and financier, the man
who put sure in life insurance,
chose the same day in 1904 to enter
on his long life of reforming activit-
les.
All these were workers of good
deeds, and the list might be extend
ed A rather unusual number OF
men in the second rank of science
have Feb. II as a birthday-and not
a single tyrant, oppressor, or destroy
er Of mankind seems to have found
that date good one for starting his
career.
Not a single one? Stay Let not
astrology plume itself too soon. Per-
naps the one real service to mankind
rendered by Cotton Mather, witch
raft inquisitor of Salem, was his
choice in 1868 Of a birth date al
ready rendered respectable by Win
thrOn and later IN ha p1Orified bV

NEEDED-A LAW.

Some sensible legislator should
frame and introduce bill whereby
the lazy or low lived husband and
father who refuses to work or who If
working spends his earnings to the
neglect of his dependents can be
brought to book. Some way must be
provided whereby those fellows may
be forced to care for their families.
For instance: Take a man who
earns $12 a week, spends 81 a week
or it for lunches at restaurants while
his wife and four children live on
bread and potatoes and not enough OF
that; who draws his wages and leav-
ing the family without food or coal
bctakes himself on jaunt to another
town leaving them to depend upon
the charitable inclinations of strang-
ers. Now what would you do with an
able bodied man like that? Do you
know what you can do? Just nothing
except feed the hungry and warm the
freezing while he spends the wage
that belongs to them as he sees fit
If his wife were to file an informa-
ton of desertion against him some
lawyer of the type that defends such
men would have him back home in a
day or two coolly asserting that de-
sertion was the farthest from his
thoughts. Oughtn't to live with him?
OF course she oughtn't but she Won
ders what she would do with four or
five children and she hopes always
that he twill do better
Now man to man, Mr.: Legislator,
oughtn't we to set stakes for that
kind of cattle Wouldn't it be wise
for proper law that would permit
authority to take that man over and
give him a chance between hard labor
on the roads, in a quarry or work
house at wages to be converted to the
support of his dependents and a
measure of self reform that would
support his family? Many an honest
and Woodworking man has found
himself in desperate situations for
lack of opportunity to work. His case
and his family's case is bad enough
but to be borne by them and sym
pathized with by the public. But
that class that refuses to work when
work is available and that diverts
the wage from the family when it
does work, wouldn't it be merely
plain justice and in the interests of
charity, to give decency and charity
and humanity chance at these
loafers.
1t is easy enough to see how
husband and wife may be so alienat-
ed that they can't live together and
to an extent that neither has any
just claim upon the other, but has
any man right to turn his children
over to charity and the compassion
of neighbors while he loafs or spends
his wage foolishly or viciously? Isn't
it fair to public and private charity
and the family and the man himself
to put him under restrain and col
lect from his big lazy body the price
of his self assumed and self accept
ed responsibilities.
A law is needed Needed in pro-
lection of children, of women, of the
public. Let's work the loafer and
the cur who repudiates the children
of his loins. -Marshalltown Times

LINCOLN'S BIRTHDAY.

The war in Europen has divided
the American people into camps
among which the antagonisms are
not unlike those which divided the
fighting nations of Europe. Old
patriotism inherited from other lands
and other days underlying American
patriotism confront each other in a
spirit that is far from friendly. 1t
is as if some domestic difficulty re-
motely threatened war at home.
Looking abroad, this country finds
itself unwillingly involved in
troubles that are not of our making.
We are being jostled in a mob OF
nations. and are trying to keep our
spirit calm and our hands at our
sides under circumstances that occa-
sionally tempt us to more vigorous
action Difficulties are arising al
most every day which might be turn
ed into war if the American people
or their leaders were tolose their bal
ance. In order to get along as pleas
antly as may be at home and to main
tain an honorable peace with the rest
of the world Americans need to, call
upon forbearance and calm reason
ableness. They need sagacity, firm
ness, patriotism, sympathy and pa
thence. Among ourselves little Of
the sweetening influence of humor
would save deal of i'll feeling and
again and again patriotism, sympa-
thy and patience must have play.
Today is the birthday of Abraham
Lincoln. In a time Of even greater
peril than the present he served the
A mprican npOn1n and carried the
heavy load of government. We may
draw from the memory of his great
qualities inspiration for present day
tasks and let our keen sense of re-
greet in view of attacks made upon
his acts and policies beget in us a
finer loyalty to present leadership, a
deeper appreciation of present states
manship.-S Louis Republic

OUR sHACKLED SENATE.

The only legislative body on earth
which is not at all times ruled by a
majority, the senate Of the United
States has two members at least who
are willing to contemplate a change.
Mr.. Thomas of Colorado, expresses
himself unqualifiedly in favor of
clcture. Mr.. Stone of Missouri here
tofore opposed to it, intimates that he
may support it. Opposition to the
limitation of debate rests upon the
theory advanced by Mr.. Clapp of Min
nesota, that senators are ambassa-
doris of states.
If senators were really ambassa-
doris of states and governed by rules
of diplomacy, they would have fewer
opportunities for filibustering than
they now enjoy. Ambassadors do not
talk against time. They do not pro-
tract their conferences for days and
weeks merely to gain selfish end.
Ambassadors may be adroit, but they
cannot be openly insincere and dis
honest. An ambassador who UNDER
took to talk an adversary to death
would soon go out of the business.
Senator'S may once have assumed
that they were ambassadors of states,
but there is no longer a basis for that
contention They became in time the
ambassadors of silver, wood, iron,
steel, glass, cotton, sugar, railroads,
copper, salt, and steamships, and
when this relationship grew SO SCAN
dalous that it could be tolerated no
more, an amendment to the constitu-
ton was adopted making them am
bassadors of the people.
The Wilson administration has yet
two years of life. In the sixty-fourth
congress the senate will have demo-
cratic majority of sixteen. The vice
president who presides over that
body is a democrat The congress
soon to expire has written into the
laws of the republic democratic ideas
that, no matter what the ordinary POI
litical changes of the next few years
may be, will not soon be obliterated.
It's successor can and should crown
this record by emancipating the SEN.
ate from the control of minorities.
{ Most of our notable party triumphs
have been popular triumphs, and as
such have benefited all parties. The
party that gives the people suprcm-
acy in the United States senate will
profit by its achievement for genera
tons to come.-New York World. 3

WHAT WAR MEANS.
Wanton Destruction May Mark tho
Progress Of an Army.

"All is fair in love and war;" runs the
old saying, and Mr.. e. A. ViZetelly IN
his volume of "reminiscences, "My Days
of Adventure proves the truth of it.
Referring to the appearance of the rail.
way station at Nantes during the
Franco-German war, he says:
Never since have seen anything re-
sembling it. A thousand panes of glass
belonging to windows or roofing had
been shivered to atoms. Every mirror
in either. waiting or refreshment rooms
had been pounded to pieces, every gilt
frame broken into little bits The clock
|. lay about in small fragments; account
books and printed forms had been torn
to scraps; partitions, chairs, tables,
benches, boxes, nests of drawers, had
been hacked, split, broken, reduced to
mere strips of wood; the large stoves
were overturned and broken, and the
marble refreshment counter, some thir-
ty feet long and previously one Of the
features of the station, now strewed
the floor in particles, suggesting gravel.
1t was indeed an amazing sight, the
more amazing as no such work of de-
struction could have been accomplished
without extreme labor.
when we returned to the inn for
dinner asked some questions.
"'Who did it?
"'The first German troops that came
here was the answer.
why did they do it? Was it be-
cause your men had cut the telegraph
wires and destroyed some of the per-
manent way?'
"'Oh, no! They expected to find
something to drink in the refreshment
room, and when they discovered that
everything had been taken away they
set about breaking the fixtures.

Steam Power.

The name of the first man to dis
cover the power of steam will never
be known. AS early as $50 B. c., at
Alexandria, Egypt, we hear of 'Heros
engine" sort Of steam using engine.
From the time Of Hero to the seven.
teenth century the subject is unheard
of. About 1901, Giovanni Battista del
la Porta wrote a treatise on the steam
engine The great name In the his
