do their full share in meeting the
crisis, but they do justly object to
having other people making money
while they are making sacrifices, be-
cause OF the war.
If the government exercises the
right of drafting the farmers sons
to risk their lives in defense of the
flag, it should also exercise the right
of drafting the manufacturing
plants and the wealth of the nation
to carry on the war If the young
men of the country are asked to
fight in the trenches for a few dol
lars a month, the services of fac
tories and banks should be requi-
sitioned at a nominal profit over the
cost Of operation.
The spirit of 1875 still burns in
the hearts of the people They are
willing to vote billions for defense,
bnt not one cent for tribute to the
selfish interests, which favor war
because of the opportunity it affords
to make big profits.

WHAT OF RUSSIAN SOCIALISM?
Editor Herald:

Editor Herald:
[ wonder if our country is alto
gether proud of her progress when
she sees it in the light of Russia S
new awakening day?
Its revolution has borne a fruit
that fayors the pomegranite, as
compared with our persimmon-like
variety
Our colonists retained the old in
direct vote method because of the in
born fear that common men lacked
in the mentality necessary for direct
expression.
We vote that meandering way to-
day. Some morning we will arise
to read in our daily that Russia has
beaten us to it.
Ever since Dr. Anna Shaw took
up the cudgels for her sex and de-
manded equal suffrage. that sex has
been the butt of masculine jeers.
(When Nature was tabulating her
characteristics executive ability"
was only placed in the male" col
umn.)
A fortnight ago Russia said
women shall vote"
The small, crowded states of our
Atlantic seaboard that were the
cradle for the revolution which freed
England of her undesirables, do not
let their women utter one word re-
garding their desires for govern
menc.
And in the southland a social caste
prevails to the extinction of all nat
ural female progressive thought
But social caste is crumbling in
Russia, long the stangnant pool of
corrupt political censure and it's mar
row degraded existence for the lower
strata of its human life.
On the day when the dead of it's
revolution were inferred in one long
grave, its women, peasant and noble,
marched side by side, chanting the
ritual for peace to their common
heroes.
Following the peasantry were the
soldiery, precedent unheard of in
| Petrograd.
The cold, bleak, sky sent down a
driving sleet that chilled the living
and dampened the new flag of Rus
STA that draped the silent forms OF
those who had loved her. But it did
not quench the flame of social
equality that sprang into existence
that day Socialism without reser-
walton; social and sex equality. That
is what we will see take life on the
lonely steppes of the East.
The new Cossack will be a
woman, Listen!

BILLIONS FOR DEFENSE But
NOT ONE CENT FOR TRIBUTE

Without a dissenting vote, both
houses of congress have passed a bill
appropriating $7.000,0O0,0OO for
the prosecution of the war with
Germany. This is a staggering sum,
but the people of the United States
Will not begrudge it. They will
strenuously object, however. if a
penny of it goes as tribute to the
manufacturers of armor plate. war
munitions and supplies or to the
food spectators who will try to
make profits out of the necessity of
their country
Strong pressure is being brought
on congress to fix. the price of grain
and other products of the farm. No
one can object to this plan, provided
the prices of all other commodities
are fixed on the same basis: but it
would be manifestIy unfair for the
government to fix the price of what
the farmer has to sell, while not fix
ing the price of what he has to bug
A repetition of the profit extortion
practiced by big business during the
Civil and Spanish-American wars
will result in serious complications
Men who are offering their lives
and making great sacrifices fol
their country will not tolerate the
amassing of great fortunes from the
war by some OF their greedy and I'M
patriotic countrymen.
II the government should issue ar
edict that no one will be permitted

out Of the war and proceed to rig

A CLOSED INCIDENT

Friends of the State College deep
ly regret the friction which has re-
suited in the dismissal of Dr. Ira d.
Cardiff, director of the state agricul-
tural experiment station and head
of the department of botany, but all
must admit that the board of regents
acted wisely in eliminating the fric-
ton.
As to who was at fault there may
have heretofore been some differ
ence of opinion. but the action of the
regents was taken by unanimous
vote after a thorough Investigation
and with a full knowledge of all the
facts. They were in a better posi-
ton than anyone else to decide the
matter on its merits and their de-
cision should be accepted as final
Just now, as never before, CO.
operation and teamwork are need
ed in the faculty OF the State Col
lege as we'll as in the several depart
ments of the national government.
Harmony promotes efficiency, frc-
ton destroys it, Post-mortem dis
cussion and criticism OF the action of
the regents will not help matters,
but will prove detrimental both to
the interests of the college and of
DR., Cardiff. The incident is closed
and the sooner it is forgotten the
better it will be for all parties con-
cerned.
