HUMAN NATURE. :

HUMAN NATURE (By N. D.
Cochran).- One reason most news
papers are not human is because they
try to be sUperhUman. Editors are
always dealing with human nature as
they think it ought to be, rather than
as it actually is. That's why so few
editorials are worth reading. They
are even less interesting much of the
time than sermons, in which we are
told what we ought to be and know
all the time that it isn't what we want
to be.
We are all liars, of course, because
we are always pretending, to be bet
ter than we really are. We not only
bluff and fOurfush with our friends
and acquaintance, but we do it with
members of our own. families. We
want others to think we are good"
whatever that is-and others want
us to think they are good; yet each
of us is trying to figure out just how
much the other is lying. We know
all of us are lying more or less, of
course; and the game is to find out
how much. And 1 sometimes won
der whether anybody actually knows
what is good and what is evil or bad.
Most of us understand that to be
good is to be something we are not
something that requires effort, some
thing that isn't quite comfortable
and is generally inconvenient.
For about 1900 years many of us
have been trying to be Christians,
yet have never yet met one who

eye. Anyhow, not until he got very
old and past wanting anything but
rest. That's one of the good"
things about old age, It's easier then
to be good, for one is past being any
thing else.
Understand, l don't know what BEES
ing good" really is. am talking
not about what each of us really
wants to be, but about what we want
the other fellow to be. And 1 some-G
times wonder if we haven't got
things all mixed up as to good and
bad, and whether after all human
nature itself isn't really good instead
of bad.
Most of the laws whiih govern us
are made by the ruling class and are
intended to make US 'be good" Yeti
the people who make them are not
good according to their own laws. So
the laws must be made for the people
they rule. That would mean that
most laws are. made to make the poor
be good" That works out when
you figure it out--that most of the
laws are for the protection Of prop.
erty. Certainly the poor haven't any
property to be protected. )
Even the laws to protect life are
mostly laws to protect human life
from violence-hke. murder, assault
and other crimes against the person.
We have plenty of law for protection
against that kind of violation of the
person. But it is very difficult to get
laws passed protecting the lives Of
children from the murder of their
souls. and bodies by hard labor, or to
protect working people from occupa-.
tional disease or hfe-destroying
working conditions .-
