and all the major powers of Europe.
These older nations have found the
ministerial system of government to
be the only one ever devised that will
procure needed legislation without
back-scratching delays, the only eff
cient manner Of securing redress from
the multitude of troubles from which
the people suffer.
Republican France, monarchial Ger
many and constitutional England have
adopted the ministerial system of Or
iginating legislation. Even Canada,
across the border to the north, prac-
tees the plan. The United States is
the only major nation which has not
adopted it, despite the fact that there
is no obstacle to doing so.-
Against the system there will imme-
diately be raised the cry that you
cannot take away the Legislative pow
er of congress" The ministerial sys-
TEN does not take away that power. II
merely directs it in a logical way and
restricts the haphazard legislation
that has placed over $4,000 laws on our
statute books within the last five years,
80 per cent of which are dead letters
and have been since the day they were
passed.

OF PATRIOTISM. "

Professor William Lyon Phelps or
Yale is quoted as saying:
This war has cured me Of pa
triotism. regard patriotism as the
chief mischief at the bottom Of the
war. I am done with it."
That sounds revolutionary and dis
loyal, even anarchistic. But it all de-
ponds on what is meant by patriot
ism"
Professor Phelps presumably uses
the word to signify the national ego
tism which leads so many men and
women, Of all countries, to believe
themselves incomparably better than
the rest of the world. There is nc
denying that this crude sentiment
which usually masquerades as pat
riotism, is at the bottom Of Europe's
present troubles. II the leading bel
ligerents had not felt themselves sc
overwhelmingly superior, and so JUS
titled in going to any extremes to as
sert their superiority, the war would
never have occurred.
So-called patriotism" is too often
nothing but the aggregate selfish
ness, brutishness and bull-headedness
of nations least admirable individ.
uals. 1t often misrepreselts the ma
iority Of individuals, and leads then
astray. Citizens who, as men and
women, would never dream Of justify,
ing selfishness and brutality to gair
their personal ends will justify these
qualities in behalf of the nation OF
which they are part. They will
shout, unthinkingly. Our country

aid and abet their country in doing
wrong.
Needless to say, this is not true pa
| triotism. Patriotism is the flow.
ering of the finest personal qualitie!
of a nations men and women. 1t re
CARDS the nation as the sum Of all thu
gentlemen in it, and of all the ladies
and all the honest folk and the limo
cent children, and as something
more.
To the true patriot the nation is
great personality, worthy of all tn
fine service any citizen can give il
better than any member of it, too fin
and noble to be stained by any I'm
worthy cause or any dishonorable mo
tive.
Surely no good American woul
want to be cured" of this sort of pa
triotism.

THE BUDGET SYSTEM

The United States Is, as nations go,
comparatively young 1t is still in the
development age, particularly as to its
government, and each year is trying
new plans to better it's condition. Just
at present there is in Washington much
agitation in favor of the budget sys-
TEN of appropriations, after the Euro
pean fashion, which must naturally
call attention to European government
administration in general Such at
tention cannot refrain from compari-
son, in which the American plan must
suffer
Under the budget system, the power
to initiate appropriations is taken from
irresponsible members, willing to sub
itute economy for pork, and is plac-
ed in the hands of responsible and
expert department Of the administra-
ton. The completed budget is referred
to congress only for it's approval or
rejection for sufficient reasons. The
budget system absolutely precludes
the possibility of pork barrel appro-
priations as now practiced.
A similar plan of originating all leg
islation is incorporated in the govern
ments of England, France, Germany

DEMOCRACY SCORES A POINT.


Lindley NJ Garrison. who has just
resigned his post as secretary of war,
quits, he alleges, for number of rea-
sons. First, the president disagrees
with him; second, congress disagrees
with him; third, the president declines
to force congress to accept the Gar
rison plan for preparedness.
The step taken by the former sec
rotary of war serves to bring out a
number of facts we'll known to num-
Der Of democrats or great many
months. The first big fact that COM
mands attention is that the former sec
rotary of war has never been able to
assimilate his democracy. Doubtless
Mr.. Garrison believes that he is prop
erly a member of the party to which
President Wilson gives his allegiance,
but the car Of Russia Is quite as
much democrat as the New Jersey
Judge.
Here Is the situation as it existed |:
Garrison stood pat on the proposition
that this country must have con-
tinental army. 1t was also an article
of faith with him that to extend indie,
pendence to the Filipinos was grave
mistake.
With his plans opposed in both
branches of the congress, what did Mr.
Garrison propose? Simply that the
president use the powers of his Office
to coerce the congress into accepting
the Garrison proposition. Even wher
| they are examined specifically it il
apparent that Mr.. Garrison's PROPOSE
lions to the president constitute a de
liberate attack upon the very princi
pies Of representative government.
The congress disagrees with the sec
rotary Of war and that worthy calmly
advises the chief magistrate of the ma
ton that the time has come for decis
i've action. Congress must be forced
to accept the measures handed it. De
bate must come to an end. Discussion
must cease. Opposition must b.
crushed with an iron hand. Entertain
ing the views he did, the wonder
grows that Mr.. Garrison did not pro
pose that the regular army be utilized
in the effort to make the congress Sc,
theerrors of its ways. Such advice
would have been thoroughly in keeping
Rock Island Argus. (Rock Island, Ill.) 1893-1920, 1916-02-21
Selected by Tavenner

with the secretary of wars general
attitude.
Finding that President Wilson would
not support him in a program OF
"frightfulness," as far as the congress
was concerned, Mr.. Garrison retires
from public. II there are any more
men In public life whose views coin
eide with those entertained by the for
mer secretary of war, the fervent hope
is that they go and do>likewise.
The insistent demand for a contin-
entail army serves to indicate how dan
egrous such an organization might be-
come in the hands of men who believe
the power Of the executive should be
used to override the will Of the legis-
lative branch of the government. Sec
rotary Garrison was not prepared to
submit his views either to the con-
gress or to the people. He demanded
and was prepared to use the machinery
of government to enforce his demands.
Mr.. Garrison's whole proposition was
founded upon the theory of compul-
sion. President Wilson calls attention
to this fact in the letter to his secre-
tary of war, in which the chief exec
utive says:
"As you know, l do not at all agree
with you In favoring compulsory en-
listment for training, and I fear the
advocacy of compulsion before the
committee of the house on the part OF
representatives of the department OF
war has greatly prejudiced the house
against the proposal for continental
army"
| Garrison, however, had no patience
with any policy that recognized the
right of congress to pass upon plans
prepared by the war department. Ac-
cording to the Garrison view, he and
congress were coordinate bodies. AND
since he was not able to dissolve the
congress he concluded to resign.
There are many militarists who will
of course, regret Garrison's departure
from the cabinet. The crowd that has
been clamoring for universal and com.
pulsory enlistment placed great faith
in Garrison. The advocates of an army
of "a million men or more" tied tC
Garrison The secretary Of war repre-
scented the cause of militarists. Mr.
Garrison's recognition, therefore, is al
least temporary victory for democ-
!racy-Johnston Pa) Democrat.

THE VIRGTNIUS AFFAIR.

Fifty years ago, the Civil war having
ended, the United States was at peace
with all the world and was beginning
to reconstruct the southern states
which had fallen from grace in 1861.
But many citizens in various portions
of the country, longing for excitement
and war" interested themselves in
Cuban affairs, that island seeking to
divorce itself from Spain and form an
Independent government. Many plans
were formed by citizens Of the United
States to give aid to Cuba. Those en-
gagged in forming these plans and in
carrying military supplies to Cuba,
were called "filibusters." Their move
ments supplied large part Of the SEN
sational news of the 70's, when their
adventures were at their height. The
Virginius affair was the most noted of
these and came near drawing the
United States into war with Spain, at
that time republic.
The people of this country who re-
member the details of the "Virginius
affair" are comparatively few. and yet
1t was only AZ years ago since Captain
Fry made record In history as one of
the most daring adventures Of modern
times. Few If any of the high school
pupils of today are familiar with, II
they know anything about, the exploits
of the Virginius and the fate Of its
captain and his gallant men.
The death of the Rev. Duncan Fl.
Kinds, which occurred few days ago
In Ontario, recalls the "Virginius af-
fair" as he was one Of the prominent
actors In It's brief but adventurous rec
ord, the near consequences Of which
filled columns Of the newspapers Of
that time for months.
The Virginius filibustering expedi-
ton started from New York in the year
1873 to land men and munitions to aid
engaged In the Ten Years War" with
Spain. The ship was captured by a
Spanish cruiser and taken to Santiago.
and, although the ship was flying the
American flag. her captain, Joseph
Fry, and 36 OF the crew were shot. The
next day IL more men OF the expedi-
ton were shot The third day 100 men
of the expedition. nearly all of them
Americans, were condemned 10 be shot,
but the carrying out OF the death was
postponed for few days.
Kinds was a telegrapher and in a
moment when he was not watched by
