States senatorship but the fact
has not swerved him from hi,
duty as he sees it.
Incidentally the HobSon am
endment is the logical climax
of prohibition efforts in the
United States and there are
good reasons for believing that
amendment or something SINH
lar is inevitable.
Certainly the request that
such an amendment be sub
mitted to the states is reason
able. Whether or not the
country wants prohibition
there can be no questioning
the fact the issue is suffici-
entity pressing to demand a
vote.

THE 1916 ISSUE

n HERE are widely differ
W ent ideas as to what will
constitute the chief issue
of the presidential campaign
of 1916. Some say the tariff
will be the live topic, others
preparedness, others prohibi-
ton, others America first. :"
No less paper than the New
York World believes the ques-
ton Of AmericaniSm will be
the chief point at stake next
year.
Mr.. Taft is mistaken when
he says that the tariff will be
the main issue in 1916" says
the World.
The main issue in that cam
paign has already been de-
fined by President Wilson in
two wOrds-'America first
Until that question is def
nitely settled, no other issue is
important. This country must
determine once and for all
whether in its national aspira-
tions, ideals and sympathieS it
is to be all American or half
alien"
In reality there may be no
one overshadowing issue and
the fight may hinge upon the
personal popularity of Presi-
dent Wilson due to his well
known ability and the fact the
country enjoys prosperity at
home and respect abroad.

ing form as a gigantic loop
hung from Riga and Nieuport
across all Europe.
The Belgian-French line
runs unbroken from the Chan
mel to the Swiss border. Be
ginning again near the Ortier,
the Italians carry it mainly on
mountain-tops and passes to
the Adriatic. Naval patrols
keep guard to Antivari, whence
Montenegrins, Serbs, French
and English in succession swing
! it north about Montenegro,
then south through Serbia to
Strumitza. If landings are
made at Kavala and Enos, this
line will be practically contin-
nous to Gallipoli; at sea it is
continuous now.
British submarines have in
terrupted traffic in the Helles-
pUnt, and Russian ships guard
the Black Sea. From Rouma,
ria north to Riga runs the
Russian line, much shortened
since Warsaw fell but still
more than 800 miles in length.
The land lines of trench and
mine and daily conflict and
concealed artillery, with their
windings, will alone extend
more than $500 miles if the
gap north of Kavala is present
ly filled, as expected.
Every conflict in this mighty
distance is for railroad lines:
in France, for the network
serving Lille and Sedan or
threatening Verdun; in the
Austrian mountains, for the
kep-points. Tobach, Villach,
Goritz; in Serbia, for the Bel
grade-ConstantinOple line; in
Russia chiefly for that connect
ing Riga and Dunaburg. The
advantage Of interior lines is
with the Kaiser. Within a few
days he can probably send a
through train from Ostend to
Constantinople. He can send
one now from Windau to the
Iron Gates Of the Danube.
For the allies, the loop cuts
the central power off from
every sea except in respect to
submarines. and from every
great food source in the world. /

sylVania is interesting. AS many ed
itOTs as are free themselves the
moment - resent the censorship of
university thought by political and
BUSINESS MANAGERS of a state
university.
This happens mostly in newspapers
owned by men too ignorant to under
stand that editors are resentful large
ly because they are in much the same
position as professors in colleges and
universities, endowed and supported
by the ignorant rich.
One reason we have no such thing
as a free. press is that newspapers are
published from the BUSINESS OF
FICE rather than from the editorial
room.
This is largely true also of the uni
versity and pulpit
In some newspapers the EDITOR
is made supreme, and the business
manager is subordinate to him; but in
most newspapers MONEY rules and
the BUSINESS MANAGER dominates
the editorial and news columns.
Where one man is both editor and
business manager of a newspaper,
the financial needs of the paper lead
to domination of the editorial func-
tons Of the publisher by his functions
as BUSINESS manager and ADVER-
Using solicitor.
In the church the preacher is both

editor and business manager; and
he can go no farther as editor than
his needs as BUSINESS manager
will permit. In begging money to sup
port the church and pay his own sal
cry he Oblgates himself to the mem
beTs who make the most liberal con-
tTibutiOns. That is to say, MONEY
rules because he needs the money.
If he is building a church and beg
ging the money with which to pay
the bills he must be the BUSINESS
manager and be good to the biggest
contributors. Certainly it won't help
his BUSINESS to preach a Christian
ity that Offends the rich members of
his congregation. Hence he can't go
very far preaching the kind of Chris
tianity Christ himself preached.
Christ didn't hamper himself with
BUSINESS management. He went
where the people outdoors IN
der the canopy of heaven. And the
people followed him. He was a MAN
builder, not a STEEPLE-bUilder.
Billy Sunday can't preach the
Christianity of Christ, for that would
not interest Big Business, and it
would not pay as a business prOpO-
sition. Ma Sunday is the BUSINESS
manager of the Sunday firm; and Ma
Sunday runs the whole show. Editor
Billy Sunday is managed from the
BUSINESS OFFICE.
Most colleges and universities are
beggars. One of the best things they
do is to pass the hat. They get
mighty few contributions from the
poor. And they get most of their ad-
vice where they get most of their
mOney-frOm the rich.
Successful business and profess
sionaI men are appointed on the
board Of trustees or governors. They
