WITH THE EDITORS
JAPAN'S COURSE

Confirmatiye of earlier indications that Japan
was not planning to dive into Siberia headfore-
most, comes the report now Of ministerial crisis
imminent at Toxic, with the consequent removal of
the Siberian question to indefinite future There
is every reason to believe that the urgency of the
problem has been exaggerated in good many
quarters, and that the truth is what our Washing
ton correspondent reported it to be some time
ago. That is to say, Japan presented no demands
to her allies in the matter Of Siberia, but merely
asked for advice. 1t was an all-round consultation,
the result Of which is apparently that the very
serious doubts entertained in Japan were strength
ened by similar doubts at Washington, and the
matter is now in allegiance. The blood -and-iron
interventionists have called upon to trust Japan.
But obviously, one way to trust Japan was to
trust her good sense in recognizing the immense
moral difficulties and dangers Of the undertaking,
and to trust in Japan's loyalty to the allied cause
in not adding to the allied problem in Russia by
precipitate action. Of the many supposed reasons
of gravity calling for intervention it has smmered
down to the menace from the Teuton prisoners
who are now reported fighting on the side of the
Bosheviki But we have also had reports of
Teuton prisoners in European Russia fighting
with the Bolsheviki against the German troops,
and being shot down as deserters. 1t simply means
that in the huge number of Teuton prisoners in
Russia there are great many socialists and that
some of these have joined with their fellow social
lists, the Bolshevik against what they call coun-
er-revolution.-New York Post.

WAKE UP, AMERICA

At the head of the German legions that now
are hammering their bloody way through the de-
lenses Of western democracy, there ought to be
place for Lenine and TrotZky
We may thank the Bolsheviki of Russia for
the slaughter of the German drive, and for the
peril it brings to the cause Of representative de-
mocracy-the democracy of England of France of
these United States.
Let the American people learn today the les
son of this CHASTITY and devastating joke. Side by
side march Hindenburg and Lenine, Ludendorf and
TrotZky, over the torn bodies of republicans The
kaiser intends to impose kutur upon the world by
force. The Bolsheviki intend to impose commun-
ism upon the world by force They are allies
against republicansm. One attacks it from with
out. The other attacks it from within. Their
collaboration is seen today on the blood running
fields of France.
This is the time for Americans to be Amer-
cans. If disloyalty and Bolshevism are eating
away at the roots of our American house, this is
the time to burn them out with the white hot iron
of American patriotism This is the time for
America to be herself, erect, swift, strong united
in the will to victory
We have wasted precious time. We have re-
fused to see our weakness and unreadness. We
have preferred to hug our decisions rather than TO
prepare for the fiery trail which comes to all great
nations 1t is time, and past time, to have done
with our comfortable faacies and face the terrific
realities of this time. i .s
T-as american people are not half awake. The
.-.nerNan government is rot half awake. Today,
nearly year after our entrance into the var,
German might is mghtier than ever. The thunder
of German cannon shakes the houses of Kent. Ger
man shells are falling in Paris. American soldiers,
armed with weapons borrowed from the stores Of
our allies, on the front CALAMITY fighting, but
where there is one ten are needed. We are behind
in our pledges to feed our allies. We are behind
in our aircraft plans. We are behind in our ship
ping The American giant is half awake, yet the
freedom of the world is in the balance. III
This is no moment for fear or hesitation. This
is no moment for shutting our eyes either to the
might of the enemy or the weakness Of our own
conditions. It is, above all other times, the time
to look the whole truth-the truth abroad, the
truth at home squarely in the face.
1t is time for America to rise to her full stat
ure, to put down the seditionist, to put out the
incompetent, to put forth every ounce of her vast
strength.
" In that strength, we need not for moment
doubt, is victory Our noble allies will not fail to

said. The cow was Cynthia XIII. We remember
the titles to this day. Seth gave them to US 1877
times, during the two hours, as minutes he talked
to show his necessary courtesy. Caesars ghost
What was courtesy for Ma Beardsley was courtesy
for Seth, wasn't it? If not let Biddy Bye tell why
not
On the third call, not only were ma and pa
there with the courtesy but Bill, their footthree
son, was present with his. We hated Bill. He
licked US twice, in early school days. for winning
his marbles. "You," said Bill, meaning u.s. FUSED
to be smart at figures. Now if that calf has calf
in two years, and her calf calves in time and her
calves calves calf seasonably, and so on, and Gym
thia XIII keeps on, how long will it be before we
have drove of 900 Holstein-Friesans? Remem-
Der, Cynthia is one-quarter blood miscellaneous"
We had figured on it up to 1887 p. m. when
Seth raised up from his settee and said
bill, a good deal seems to depend on that calf
accordin to the young gents figures Can't you
find warmer place for the calf these zero
nights?'
"Sure" replied Bill, who went outdoors, and
returned by II p m. bearing the calf, which he laid
on the hearth between Marinda and US. And
Winked at US, cuss him!
Well sir, we decided right then that we were
getting too blamed much necessary courtesy and
too little Marinda And maybe that's why she's
leading the correct life of an old spinster to this
day.
Bet you, we're not going to let Miss Biddy Bye
off without moral to this story:
Courtesy may be beautiful and necessary
thing, but you can make a perfectly rotten appli-
cation of it.

THE DIFFERENTlAL RATE


Uncle Sam has the railroads. He can do about
as he pleases with their operation. He can make
schedules and freight rates to suit himself.
We hope he tackles the dfferential freight
rate, and that he kicks it higher than the proven
bal kite >,
The differentia rate encourages the hauling
of freight over the longer route, thereby costing
more in fuel, labor and time. These three elements
Of transportation are now more important than
ever before They should be conserved. o>
Governor Capper Of Kansas points to just one
instance of the absurdity and costliness OF the
differential rate -s
The freight rate from certain Kansas town,
many miles nearer certain Texas town that IS
Kansas City, is higher than the rate from Kansas
City to that same Texas town. Freight from the
nearer Kansas town is first sent to Kansas City
where it is reshipped to the Texas point, gong
through the same town where it originally start
ed. Shipping the freight into Kansas City involves
the expenditure Of time, fuel and labor. Besides
it helps to clog up terminals and makes for car
shortages.
Government ownership may not be an un-
qualified success, but it doesn't have to be that to
be tremendous improvement over private owner
ship.

WANT A SOFT PLACE TO FALL ON

Now the express companies want tne govern,
mont to assume control of their businesses and
guarantee them profits based upon their earnings
of the last three years.
Since the government took over the railroads.
representatives of the express companies nave
conferred repeatedly with railroad administration
officials, urging that the government take over
their interests
The express companies earnings dropped far
down within the last year. Hence, the desire tor
government control-and government profits.
It must not be forgotten that these same eX-
press companies bitterly foug ht the government s
own "express company'-the parcel post-for
years before it came into existence and ever since.
Now that parcel post is an unqualified success, the
express companies beg to come into the govern
ment fold.

finest spirit of cooperation, swallowed yards and
yards of Miss Biddy's etiquet stunts, partly be-
cause we liked 'em and partly because anybody
putting US in "good form" has our sympathy, but
the lady is surely barking up the wrong tree, when
she puts before us this: :,
When man calls upon young lady it is
always correct for her mother to appear IN the
parlor for few moments. This is necessary
courtesy for mothers to observe
Oh! doggone it all, Biddy! there may be cor

sity whatever, and the correctness is largely o.
noxious and no good, every time. Moreover, that
