The preslaent end Lansing are above suspicion in this matter ln the mlnds ot all lair mInoed men. They have exoneraled Tunluily and that alone saves nm from suspicion. But there was leak. this is undoubted. Some one did II and number of people men were among that number. In the preliminary hearing before the house committee no facts were brought out that would warrant a conglessloaal investigation. There is llot IIuen 70 50 On, only the tact that there was a leak and certain people made money by 1t. There IS no4hlng illegal about either one thing or the other. It Is really a small matter for congress to be bothered with. And yet such Is the nature of many human m4nus that very many
 people believe congress is "white-
 washing over very nasty mess.
 Doubtless If vote Of the free and laueil.genl people of Nome were taken
 tooay at least a third Of them after reading the disaptches on the sub
 tect would say congress whltew'tsn- eu the whole thIng over by orders of the administration. In other words so far as a certain element of our people go the administration, includ- ing the president has been smirched. Az said beiore, had this happened previous to election Mir. Wilson would have undoubtedly lost thousands of votes which would have cost him the re- election. It would have been unfair. unjust for him to have lost on such g1 ounds but that Is the way things go in a world that Is peopled mostly by those who gee through glass darkly, who are easily misled by false premises or by predispositions and desires.
 The conclusion of the whole matter i5 something like this. Some chap got wind of the note and sold his in- for very good money, but he was not guilty of any crime. Wall street brokers and bankers and others pi ofited by this advance information, and there was no crime on their part. The only crime in the whole matter Is that anybody Is allowed to pile up by any means whatever millions of dcliars which ultimately have to be furnished by the laoor of thousands of men who get almost nothing out of their lives except forced labor ard worry.

There Is ample testimony to the ef-
 feet that Great Britain is intending to
 mTke great drive at the German
 hies on the west front sometime be-
 fore the middle of next summer. Jap
 a-.st observers passing through our country have declared this to be .ilo case. 'n fact, 1t Is an open secret. The exact points of atack, time when
 1t will begin. and other details are, ot course, withheld. Britain has the mt .the money, the cannon. the am munition and the determination. Very n.sny people in America expect t.iat the Cerma.s will be forced back. out of ranUe, out of Belgium. md at .eV as far as the German cr ''t CT. This Is expecting either a great deal of the British arm yor very little of tie German f0caS. That the 3-rman line will be breed back some dis tan. .e from time to time Is very prob. re e, and even a complete break 's possible. But after reading a -nte- :atn: by Field Marshal von Hinden. burg. chief of the German general str on this subject the most hopc.nl pro. ally Is liable to pause and con- slider whether anything will be ac- compiished that Is worth the nrice required for 1t.

The Fine Art of SmiIino.

Why do we not always smile when
we meet fellow being? That is the
true recognition which ought to pass
from soul to soul. Little children do
this involuntarily. The honest-hearted
peasant does it. It is the magical sun
light all through that simple land, the
perpetual greeting on the right hand
or the left between strangers as they
pass each other, never without a
smile. This, then, is the "fne art OF
smiling"-like all fine art, true art,
