HISTORY REPEATED

The foreign policy of the United States today al though much more puzzing and complicated IS repet- tOn of the international troubles George Washington faced when he was president of the country.
 Washington had as serious problem with France as Wilson has with Mexico
 During WaShingtonS first term the people of France revolting and calling upon the United States for return of the help France gave during our revou tOn
 The revoutionsts sent an envoy Genet, here to en- list our aid.
 The country seemed to be wild with enthusiasm and sympathyfor the revOutiOniSS But Washington insist ed on waiting until the heat of public opinion cooled down.
 Tt on great occasions only and after time has been given for cool and deliberate refectiOn, Washington said tha the real voice of the people can be known and Wilson adds in his biography of the first president but great risk must be run in waiting to know it."

In starting a campaign for the city
beautiful and for the city healthful
this spring, the first thing that
should claim attention OF the au-
thorities is the Seventh street sewer.
It is a constant disgrace that this
sewer should be maintained with an
outlet into the river above the steel
bridge, polluting the waters Of the
lake above the old dam. and attract
ing the attention Of every passer.
II. perchance. the condition Of the
stream below the. discharge OF the
sewer should escape the eye. there is
the insistent attack upon the olfac-
tory nerve to advertise the presence.
The outlet should be below the dam
in the rapid water. More unfavor-
able comment was directed toward
this sewer last summer by strangers
than through all other causes COM
bined within the city.

THROTTLING THE PRESS

When q man assumes public Of

is affected by the course Of the pub
lie servant"
Representative Sweeney has been
q most industrious member OF the
lower house Of the legislature. His
industry and his good intention can
only be exceeded by his amiability.
But the fact that the Courier, in
common with great many other OF
the newspapers of the state. has seen
much to criticise in some OF the bills
that have been introduced because
Of this industry and amiablity has
brought down upon itself the wrath
of the gentleman from Josephine"
In a letter which he has distributed
with great industry. but lacking the
usual amiability, Mr.. Sweeney makes
various threats Of something to hap
pen II the Courier is not throttled in
its criticism.
The Courier at no time has had a
word Of criticism for Mr. Sweeney
as a man, neither does II offer a
word against his industry as a leg
islator. II indorses what Mr..
Sweeney himself says upon that
score, though II Is somewhat inclin-
ed to credit the other SO members
OF the legislature with having been
party to the enactment OF some Of
the good things that will result from
the session. Furthermore, 1t cred
It's also the other 80 members with
the extreme good Judgment OF hav-
ing prevented some OF the things
that Mr.. Sweeney wonld have made
into law. In his letter OF threat
against the Courier publisher II the
Courier was not stilled. Mr. Sweeney
speaks as follows OF his work.

bigger industrial prosperity than We
have ever seen before. You can judge
for yourself from my committee as
signments how much have had to
do to bring about these things"
But in spite Of all that has been
done. the Courier views with alarm"
and stands appalled," at what would
have been the result II each Of the
30 members OF the legislature had
presented a bill. and had It enacted
into law as portentious Of mischief
as the Sweeney switching bill. or the
Sweeney gun license bill, or other
measures that might be classed in
the same category. The saving fea-
ture OF the situation is that the worst
damage these unwise bills do is to
consume time at $3.50 per minute.
