PACIFISTs

There are pacifists and pacifists
One kind may be real useful citi-
zen: the other is nuisance or
worse.
VIM. J. Bryan was pacifist. So
was Robert LaFollette. So was
Henry Ford. War came on and
Bryan gave out the word that 1t was
the duty OF all Americans to stand
by the government. and has quietly
and in an unobstrusive way urged a
united nation behind the admins
tration.
LaFollette has felt the influence
OF the large German population
back In Wisconsin and has been
most outspoken in his anti-Ameri-
canism to a point which has called
for an Official inquiry as to whether
he should not be unseated from the
senate for seditious utterances.
How about Henry Ford He has
. big plant in Boston used for as
sembling his cars for New England
distribution. Recently federal au-
thorities decided that this plant
would serve very nicely an import
ant governmental need. Secretary
Baker wrote to Ford stating the
facts and asking whether the gov
ernment might not use the plant at
fair rental.
In less than half minute Ford
decided the matter,-and wired his
answer: mo rent-take IT,"
Still this is the man who fin
anced much derided peace = expe-
dition to Europe. A large share oil
the American people were, less than
a year ago, kicking Henry Ford
right and left. He is large enough
a man to see that real pacifism is
not in standing on the street corner
and shouting against his own gov.
ernment. but in helping to put dowr
those who make war necessary. Al
he himself has said, d,-"There is no.
body that fights like a pacifIst wher
he once gets started"

newspaper is taking advantage
Of the general public by over
charging for the legal printing.
There are many newspaper
men as well as men in other call
ings, who will stoop to anything
that is calculated to injure their
competitor and if they can pref
udice the mind Of the public and
also of the county officials they
do not hesitate even tho them
selves when their party was in
power charged the same rates
for legal printing.
So in some parts of the state
they have rallied at their compet-
itors insinuating if not coming
out and charging them with be-
ing grafters, and the boards Of
county commissioners have held
up the payment on their bills.
Now the legal rate of Colorado
is no higher than rhat of the adj
joining states and is lower than
that of some much older states.
The rate is 81 cents per inch for
first insertion and IA cents per
inch for each successive insertion
set in six point" which makes
twelve lines Of matter.
The uniform rate is fixed by
law very much the same as GER
tain fees for public service.
Whether or not it is Of statute
lawyers, for instance, have a GUS
tomary charge of $25.OO per day
for their services, and doctors,
likewise, have an ethical scale OF
charges.

stand that alreadypendino before
the legislature is a bill calculated
to cut off some Of the public fees
Of newspapers. More than likely
the bill originated with some law
yer who has ascended to the lof-
ty position Of senator or repre-.
sentative who is disgruntIed at
some newspaper man because he
would not split the fee with him,
as occasionally a lawyer has the
temerity to demand.
But we will gamble our last
nickle that there will be no bill
to take away any of his salary in
the legislature nor in anyway de
prive him Of his bread and but
ter.
Then there are the salaries Of
county officers, some of whom
are now falling in line with the
idea that the printer is robbing
the public. You don't hear them
complaining of the recent raise
Of salaries.
Newspapers are a public ne
cessity but the way some people
seek to deprive them of a reas-
enable right to exist would seem
that they are inclined to class
them as a public menace.
No, the legal rale in Colorado
is not too high, is not eXtortion-
ate, and the legislators can de-
vote their energies toward some
thing far more useful to the pub
lie than robbing the newspaper S
of their sustenance.
