the cost of acknowledgment that
their whole course has been one Of
fatuous folly. These leaders are not
large minded enough to sink their
personality in their cause. Their
regulations for political sagacity
which they have already forfeited
are more precious to themselves than
the victory which they have done
their best to postpone.
Following the Tammany methods
which they have adopted as a recon-
mendation that women would be en-
trusted with political power, they
are impudently claiming that the
presence of Miss Jeanette Rankin in
the halls of Congress is a reason for
the resumption of their offensive tao
tics. We presume that the first reso-
luton Miss Rankin will introduce
will be one for the adoption Of the
national amendment. This could
well be followed by a second resolu-
tion deprecating these insane mani
festations at this time, and disasso-
ciating herself from any sympathy
with the peculiar methods of the
Woman's Party.
It is well recognized that the pick
eters have been trying to attract at
tention to themselves anew by court
ing martyrdom. 1t is about time to
grant their wish. Immunity on ac-
count of sex should no longer
be tolerated. The real martyrdom
will be the indifference of the Amer
lean people to the deserved fate Of
the picketers and the oblivion that
will mercifully cover them. -.--..- o.

To the Lady From Montana:

Here's to your health, Miss
Rankin!
Your taking the oath of Office to
day as a Representative in Congress
is the beginning of a new epoch in
the political history of the United
States. You fairly won your nomi-
nation, and your election in a Demo
cratic State was a personal tribute
to your worth as well as a manifes-
tation of a purpose to give to women
the real equality of opportunity
which they have a right to demand.
Your coolness of behavior. under
the trying circumstances of your
conspicuous position, and the wisdom
both of your speech and your reti-
cence, has created confidence in your
ability well to represent not only
the people Of Montana, but half the
people of the United States, hitherto
represented only by proxy in the
persons of their fathers and hus-
bands and brothers and sons.
Upon the circumspection of your
speech and the wisdom of your
Eeourse as a legislator, one need not
remind you, much depends. You are
the forerunner of many women who
will sit in the House and in the Sen
ate, too, who will occupy responsible
positions in the Cabinet, and on the
bench, and, who knows, in the White
: House itself. whenever the time
comes that the most fitting candi-
date for that high place shall be a
: great woman.
; The Times wishes for you the full
measure of honor and success which
I is naturally due to the first Con-
I. Presswoman. The country needs the
woman's part in national as well as
in municipal housekeeping. May you
be able to prove to the most recalci-
trant anti-suffrage Congressman the
reality of that need!

Hard on the Pacifists

The sinking Of four more merchant
ships, without warning, with the
consequent loss of American lives,
comes as inopportune tidings from
the pacifist point of view. The
pacifsts are about to descend upon
Congress to persuade that patient
body that war is unnecessary. Ger
many is making it harder every day
for the pacifst to remain a. patriot.
The question viii recur, Is there any
thing Of insult or Of injury that will
make nation fight?
The destruction Of life on one of
these ships seems to have been ac-
companied with a barbarity not
heretofore exemplifed, in that a
trawler which was attempting to
rescue drowning men was warned
away from the scene. This report
comes from the United States con-
sui Yet the incident, which would
have inflamed the American people
beyond all bounds, some months ago,
is received now without excitement.
German brutality has reached the
point where no manifestation of it
surprises any one. But the main
thing is that the American people
has made up its collective mind to
protect its honor and its interests
and the lives of its citizens and the
principles of international law by
fighting for them. 1t has resolved
to 90 to war with Germany as
against an international outlaw
whose term of outlawry must be
brought to a close.
Pacifsm, which was a doctrine
universally respected three years
ago. has degenerated into an insin-
cere theory of national nonresistance
which cannot be defended in the
court either Of reason or of con-
science. Its present advocates are
obsessed with a species of fanaticism
which it may take severe measures
to cure. The real pacifsm that be-
lieves in the establishment of en-
during peace recognizes that a war
against Germany is a war against
war. Meanwhile. we suppose, for
the next few days, the nation will
have to put up with the shrill rasp-
ings of the grasshopper on the fence.
