DECREE OF THE MORAL GOVERNOR. .

In a recent patriotic sermon Cardinal Glib
bons quoted Benjamin Franklin as having de-
cared in the constitutional convention OF 1857,
that he had lived many years and the Older he
grew the more convinced he was that SUI
preme power intervenes in the affairs OF man
kind. The eminent prelate also pointed out
that all the chief magistrates OF the nation
since the foundation Of the republic have rec
ognized the 'smoral Governor of the world
and invoked His aid in their inaugural adj
dresses.
There is a feeling in many minds that IN
some year that lies ahead of us-a decade or
generation away, perhaps-men will not regard
this war as the nmitigated calamity it seems
to us but rather redemptive trlbuLatlon IN
which the love and wisdom of the earth s "mor-
al Governor are clearly seen. In a recent I'M
passioned pulpit address, Rev. DIR. Hills, OF
Brooklyn, quoted surgeon OF distinction, now
laboring on the battlefront in France, as say
ing that he had spoken once in Dr. Hills
church on the blessings of peace but II he ever
had that privilege again he would speak upon
| the blessings of war. He had never dreamed,
he said that men could be so noble; and he sees
now but for the chastisement of this war, Ber-
| lin and Vienna, London and Paris would have
descended into hell within three generations. :
1t must be that the nations will come some day
to see what their minds of deepest insight
glimpse already, that violations of the great
law made this war unacceptable, and that, IN
| this sense it was the fundamentally en-
iployed by the ''moral Governor OF the uni
verse for the evolutionary advancement OF the
race.

OUR INTEREST IN ITALY.

The first impulse of the German attack on the
Italians seems to be stayed and the Italian lines
to be in process of re-estabishment. Ii Gen
eral Cadorna can develop the same good fight
ing under difficulties from his troops that they
showed in stor1ning the heights and dislodging
the Austrians in their offensive, they should
hold back the man-Austrian troops until
such aid as is needed can be brought to Ca
dorna S use One factor must be taken into the
estimate of Italy S power to hold back her pres
ent foe; large German army commanded by
one of the ablest tacticians Of the German staff
is operating against her now. Austria has
shown neither the fighting strength nor the
strategic ability to make her the peer OF Ger
many, nor, indeed, of France and England. 1t
need not belittle Italy's power to regard it
now as subjected to a test far more severe than
it has before withstood.
1t is of great Importance to the cause against
Germany that Italy be helped to hold her own
against invasion. 1t is of special Importance to
us, since we are so committed to this war that
if italy be invaded by Germans along with their
Austrian allies, it is difficult to see how we can
avoid open war with Austria. This would pre-
sent complications, not alone foreign fields
but here at home Thus there is at stake in
Italv's resistance an issue of moment to this
nation

PARTY POLITICS.

Waterloo Times-Tribune: From
various quarters Of the state come
rumors OF fence building and slate
fixing for the elections of next year.
Party government is necessary to
a free and ordinary democracy; but
in the face of the great crisis now
upon our people little stress should
be laid upon party politics, for there
is one overshadowing problem to the
solving of which. If we would be
successful, all others must be held
in abeyance 1t is needless to say
that this refers to the war.
Lincoln said: The country cannot
remain half slave and half free" 1t
may safely be paraphrased in saying:
"The world cannot remain half autoc-
racy and half democracy" These
two great forces have met to deter
mine which shall rule; there is no
middle ground
The only strife there should be
among our people is honest emula-
ton as to the best means of crush
| ing the Hun. Other matters can
wait.
| He would indeed be a chemist OF
rare power who could distinguish the
blood Of a wounded democrat from

Don't stay bilious, sick. headachy,

don't you get a box Of Cascarets
from the drug store and eat one or
two tonight and enjoy the incest,
gentlest liver and bowel cleansing you
ever experienced? You will wake up
feeling fit and fine. Cascarets never
grippe or sicken like salts, pills and

thoroughly and are harmless.

CONGRESSIONAL EXEMPTION.

We are asked to give the real
truth" about an item printed in our
contemporary, the Tribune.
which is as follows and to-wit:
The action OF congress in ex-
empting its members from the in
come tax while soaking business
and professional men with like
and lesser revenues has called
forth the most bitter resentment
ever given publicity by the press.
The New York World character
ICES any congressman who thus
exempted himself as "at least
Stacker" adding that some might
suspect him of being a CRATER"
The Houston, (Tex.) Post adds
that mo congressman who votes
war taxes upon the people and
then takes unto himself immun-
ity therefrom is not fit to sit in a
hog caucus at the stock yards and
he ought to be driven from public
life at once" Our Senator Cum
minis vigorously denounced this
petty larceny steal when the
measure appeared in the senate
as "viciously discriminatory To
the credit of Congressman Good
it may be stated that he voted
against the amendment-and will
pay upon his income, having waiv-
ed exemption.
Well, as far as we know that is ths
real truth 1t is neither overstated
nor understated Congress did thar
very thing and it did it against many
protests. They did exempt not only
their own salaries, but official salarie:
generally, including the salary of the
president Of the United States and o
the Judges and the commissioners
who hold the fat offices and most o
whom make more money In three
months than they could make in {
year laboring on their own hook, a.
the rest of mankind has to do outside
of the offices.
We shall be disappointed IL ever.
official does not follow the example
which has been set by some con
gressmen, including Mr.. Good, ant
announce to the effect that they vii
not take advantage of law that is So
unpatriotic and so unjust. The mel
who draw their pay from the govern
merit, and most of whom draw i
mighty easily as well as superabun
dainty, for their talents, ought to b.
the first to step up and pay thei1
taxes and their super taxes, from thu
president down and any official wht
does not so step up must be set dowr
in the most disgraceful list of all thu
slackers with which the country /!
infested. That congressional exemp
ton law must be waived by the mel
who enacted it for their own benefi
or the nation, will be disgraced an,
when congress meets again that dis
graceful and outrageous law ought t.
be repealed That ought to be tn,
first thing that congress does, in OF
der that it's own good name may b.
redeemed and the nation be free,

MORE SHIPS NEEDED.

Lord Northcliffe, head Of Great Britain s
special mission to the United States, sticks to
the original English view, expressed when we
entered the war, that we should give first aid
in providing ships and supplies. Marshal
Joffre, speaking for the French government,
asked that men be sent at once, and President
Wilson, while he has said that the allies need
food and ships before they need men, has sent
many thousands of troops to Europe No one
whose opinion counts questions the wisdom of
that action. The heartening effect Of the pres
ence of American soldiers was seen as soon as
our men landed on French soil. But the ship
problem has not been solved, and Lord North
cliffe gives warning that any delay in the build
ing program will be dangerous. "We have
