Pale Neutrality

The last number of the Cho-
teau Acantha contained an
article that was a perfect
specimen of d d 6 i n e-and-
ducking neutrality-neutrality
that men minus convictions or
vertabrae to back conviction
resort to in times when issues
of great moment are at stake.
The writer opens with a
stereotyped line of platitu-
dinous palaver and buncombe;
asserting that there is no
difference between the DOM
inant parties and that the can
didates are both excellent
fellows, just about alike in all
their little ways and with only
s~hadow-like differences of
opinion, which g two-minute
parlor meeting might settle,
yes?
Then it rambles on down to
county officials and we get
more milk and water. A
primary requisite to this or
iginal thinker is social quality
that may enable them the
county officials) to adorn the
public building with their
presence" Percy, don't forget
your finger bowl!
Mush and milk neutrality of
this brand we have had all too
much Of in the last few
months. It is brother to Grape
Juice Diplomacy and a first
cousin of Too Proud to Fight.
1t is also connected by blood
ties to the wheeze. He has
kept us out of war;" Small
wonder that T. R. caught the
country when he coined that
apt phrase weasel words"

Publications of the type of
the Appeal to Reason and
the Menace find themselves
IN a rather anomalous DOS
ition. These papers have
been screeching in black
type gainst members of a
certain christian religion,
alleging that it was not
American in spirit. Now
they are crying against the
American interference in
Mexican affairs, asserting
that it is inspired by this
sect. In brief, their bigotry
has forced them to take a
stand against the thing that
every good American wants
to see accomplished; the
cleaning up of Mexico. But
fanaticism is seldom consist
ent.
