JoSEPHUS THE GOAT


 Josephus Daniels has been pilloried and cartooned and carticatured and otherwise subjected to contempt and llalcuie and scorn so long and so per- s'stently that sympathy must ultimate 1 iy be aroused for the poor man and | mayhap turn into respect and admira-
 tion-if the editorial sneers and pie io,ial onsloughts be kept up and he live
 .o ripe old age. There Is a limit to most things, but Josephus begins to appear immune to rational limit.
 Of course, every cabinet must have it's scapegoat. Josephus is 1t. He has been 1t from the moment he enforced total abstinence aboard ship. Appar- cntly he cannot get over being 1t. He was the goat when lined up with the pacificists and Is the goat no less since bravely and accommodatingly in line for naval preparedness. As if he had not already enough to bear. he fell im- mediate heir to all the goatship shed by William Jennings Bryan when that .llustrious patriot abandoned the ship and sped Chatauquaward, and his bur den of goatship has steady increased and multiplied in all the weary interim. Today he is carrying staggering load of it. Every good word for the admin istration is coupled with an i'll word. # not the short and ugly word, for the administrations goat. Love of Wood row runs in the same channel with loathing of Josephus. To cherish the one Is to despise the other. MaIne goes Rpublican and Josephus iS tho goat.

 Forty years ago. however. the rich lands of the Dakotas and .Minnesota m.re rogaroed as hgntly as the arid aLi semi-arid lands of today. The government gave away hundreds of
 thousands of acres of the rich black loam, much of now worth from s100 to szO0 an acre. and at that time re- garaed as a part of the great American desert.
