If by any such an impeachment pro. ceedings, members are to be com pelled to conceal their views or those of their constituents, the re- suit would be to reducu the Con gross of the United States to the level of the purely formal debating office of a German Rcichstag
 The United States is not sup posed to be anything else but a gov ernment of the people, by the peo- pie for the people. All the people are entitled to an expression of their views and if inside Congress is not the place for an airing of all sorts and conditions of opinions, where is there to be any freedom of opinon and speech.
 Unfortunately it appears to be overlooked that where intolerance gains sway, it is an evidence of dis;rust in the security of opinions held by those who are intolerant. And those people who think that the nation may be endangered b. an expression of opinion b. Lafoll' cite or the rest. think so bccau3r they have no absolute confidence ir the rectitudc and invulnerability of their own views.
 In this way all such are reflect ing upon their own position. They arc thus manifesting distrust in the right and truth and justice of their own beliefs and they are not able to conceive anything which might be urged against the attitude Of Lafolettc.
 In this they would be well &d- vised to turn to the policies of calm confidence and toleration ma infested not only in this. but as a general line of policy by President Wilson And wher these days be- come part of the recorded history of the times, it will be said that not the least Of the distir guished characteristics of Wilson has been his fine tolerance for opposition and consistent attitude Of conGd- cnce in the correctness of his atti- tude.
 It is the noisy, the blatant and generally the ignorant who are the most intolerart It is the man who l is unable to show the justice of his pos ition that will not tolerate any thing opposed to it.

arguments for the small man in business and were not without some effect.
 But because of the publicity giI ct these views, Big Business was mere in anger than ever against La toilette. They knew that he was sincere and they knew that his views were calcuated to impress not a few followers. Nor is his financial position weakened by req son of the fact that he has unques- tionably taken up the cu6gels for the majority of business men who are little businessmen, rather than for the minority who are the Big Business men. There will be no mistake about the fact that failure to adopt the principals enunciated by Lafollette in his minority report on the Revenue Bill will react somewhat harsley at later period upon the small banker. the small wholesaler and the small independ- cnt manufacturer. The money trust the industrial trust, the com mercial trust of whatever 'Iird, will simply thrive at the expense of the small fry.
 Latollette's attitude upon the war has not occasioned any such an out cry, it will be observed, as has his fiscal policy Even while opposing the President in the matter of a m ing American ships, in the matter of declaring war, in any and all of these things. when one would irla- gire his views would excite con, siderable disapproval, beyond news paper and other harmless denun- citations, no action was taken. B Il when he takes his keen scaipcl ard begins to dissect the majority ra- port of the Senate Finance Com mittee and lays bare with economic and financial fact how clearly il represents the interest of big bus mess, the hue and cry assumes the enormous dimensions of a call for impeachment and he is surely i'l bad.
 This fact, and it is not to be questioned. should give pause il the way of approving any impeach mont of the Senator from WiscOn. sin.

time the Chicago Socialist intimated that many of the greatest captains of industry were ra3lying to his stGndard. Of course that was non, sense. They could not possibly be so mistaken as to wnesre their in forest lay; not fer one minute and they knew what many do not, that Senator Lafollette was nothing if not absolutely sincere.
 Narrow are Lafollette'3 views, narrow with the narrOwness always characteristic of little business, just as little business finds it's viewpoint circumscribed on all sides by the mountainous borderland oG Big Business. but they are without doubt able and sincere.
 His financial views as pronounced in the Sencte have. in reality been responsible for much recent denun- citation. They were as consistent and as sincere as his other views
  l the resentment against the man.
 Lafolette held to the view that now during the war, those making profit from it should pay for it while the war was on. He did not intimate that that they should pay | for all the current expenses. but that the proportion collected fn taxes and the proportion to be ac- | quired by loans of the current eX- penses should always show that the 1 former wa&-to the latter at least in the ratio of 3 to |
 The most obtuse would realize that those making big money from the war would object strongly to this and th2t they would object just IS strongly to even an equal ratio.
 The best that could be conceded would be as 25 to 75, 25 per cent being collected in taxes ana 75 per cent being collected by loans. The reason for this is obvious. The money makers have more money than ever to invest in loans and more money than ever to be pre- tected from heavy taxation.
 The arguments advanced by Lafollette in support of his position also reveal with some degree oi accuracy that position.
 He urged that if the country was staggering under a load oi bonded indebtedness after the wal the little business man would face bankruptcy and general ipdustri al stagnGtiCn would follow: that ii money is collected to pay expenses now the interest is saved: that i, loans are taken up the interes which vii have to be paid there upon will be even higher than tho original indebtedness. All of these arc very sound and very plausibl,

 Ray May Be Attributed to over-
 Work.
 New Haven, March 2s.-Just as some baseball pitchers require several days rest between games some run ners need 8 like recuperating spell between hard races. and after We'd resday's race 1t is apparent that Overton is one of these. Johnny was nothing like the athlete that raced to victory in the 1000 yard national in- door championship last Saturday night. In spite of the snail-like pace in the early stages of last nights race Johnny did not measure up to the job of finishing with Ray for an in- stant. It was evident in his first ef- fort to get away from the westerner that Johnny was leg weary from last Saturdays effort This is not saying .that Ray would not have defeated Overton at his very best, but the Overton Of the A. A. U. games would have forced Ray much harder than Eli Johnny did Wednesday night. In the last lap of the race Overton's form went all to pieces Ray actually ran away from the Yale fter.
 4oie Ray himself hit the nail right on the head when he said the other day that the A. A. U. "1, 900" in which Overton defeated him, was just a nice speed workout for him. While that race cost the Yale boy his< best energy, it was just brushing up for the cocky little Chicagoan, who has been running much longer distances all winter.
