Tn MUSGRAVE'S store in Scranton town

And likewise ice.cream cones.

Correcting pains and ills,
And in his time has doubtless sold,
A million bilious pills.

A winter evening, but the frozen land
Presents one cheerful picture there below,
Shaking as tho with laughter, poplars stand,
And warm their fingers at the sunset glow.

TTERE the two theories clash brightly
III enough. And yet Colonel Roosevelt and
his critics have not yet attempted to do more
than touch the surface of a question that
becomes larger every day. Certainly when
peace is declared we shall have no easy time

national politics. Endless morasses lie in
that direction. Emotional and intellectual
forces. tremendous and immeasurable. are

Of our old eXcluSivenesS and, perhaps, not a
little of our national energy. No one can get
the measure of the new world that Is to be.
So far it is only possible to perceive the
looming difficulties vaguely. That we shall
have to make stupendous decisions when the
war ends Is certain. Shall we decide to re-
turn to the old point OF view. to withdraw
to our own borders and leave Europe to make
the best use possible of the gifts we have
put in her hands? To what extent, on the
other hand. shall we assume responsibility
for new and shaky European governments?
Which is the safe and most honorable way?
Could the League of Nations keep the in
diyidual members in order? Will the new
little nations maintain in peace the ideals
that they are warning for? If they do not
shall we go abroad to make future wars?
These are but superficial queries related to
a great central question of our future course,
and yet no man can answer them until he
has seen the forms and shapes into which
civilized opinions settle in a made-over world
fresh from the fire.

You tame and soothe despair that else

For art like yours must make a raging

For time hasn't made one bosom with care

We voice the same old longings, the same

And dwell upon the words a poet made in

And sip a little honey from his sad refrain.

TaE address that carried Colonel Roose-

of hysteria was delivered a few days ago.

and children. Internationalism corresponds

orally. TO substitute nationalism for inter-
nationalism means to do away with patriot
ism. 1t Is as vicious and as profoundly de-
moralizing as TO put promiscuous devotion
to all other persons in the place of the stead

This address has been answered by Colonel
RooseVelt's adVersaries in various ways

sacrifice all the blood in America to make
Poland free and insure unto the Czecho-
Slavs a place in the much-talked-of sun?

THE Colonel is just emerging from one of
i these cnCOunters-perhaps the mosts sig
nihCant encounter of the year. And a new
and shining thing is visible in the dust of
the scufile. 1t begins to appear that Colonel
Roosevelt has been able to uncover a really
formidable issue for the campaign of 1920
that he has performed a miracle that was
beyond the power even of Mr.. Lodge in his
listening post at Washington. The Colonel,
with his usual genius for reaching the mass
consciousness in a sensitive place, seems to
have laid his hands upon an issue that may
grow to prodigious Importance that should
serve to touch the popular Imagination
swiftly and surely, and that is touched. too,
with the hues Of romance. 1t is an issue
that has the added advantage of being star
Spangled.
recent address is whether the United States,
through a rhilosophically minded and ideally
disposed Democratic administration shall
commit itself fully to a program of interna-
tionalism whether it will merge its austere
identity with other nations in the course of
peacemakinE whether the republic is to re-
main proudly aloof. self-suficient and free
from the confusing interests of alien policies
and the novel concerns sure to be involved
in q program of close corporations with for
eign nations old and new. Nothing that has
been turned up by the swift current of recent
events is so alluring as this general query
or so potential as a rousing challenge to
national feeling. The principle upon which
Colonel Roosevelt seems bent on sounding the
country and his own party is opposed, in
many of its aspects, to the present trend of
administrative philosophy at Washington.
Undoubtedly the country is being taught to
think more and more IN terms of interna-
tionalism. The question to be raised is, of
course. how far we can go with safety.

TT IS Colonel Roosevelt's fate-or should
= one say his pleasure?-to inspire in his
critics a fiery. an almost religious. zeal. Those
who instincttvely oppose themselves to the
Colonel In all things great and small are
clever men. They are almost as clever as
the Colonel. And the Colonel keeps them talk
ing. He keeps their minds going in twenty
four-hour shifts. He compels them to rake
their gifted souls for the sort of elemental
truth which they deem necessary to lay him
stark and low.
The process Is one that serves to enrich
general intelligence and to clarity popular
opinion. So, in a manner singularly novel
and picturesque. the most tumultuous ex-
President in this or any other world still
manages to do his country an immense serr-
Ice. 1t does not matter that he is often upon
questionable ground or that his adversaries
are often on questionable ground. Between
them they give us light to see by.
1t is easy to visualize Colonel Roosevelt
as n solitary, Cloaked figure %plodding indus
triously among the Unanswerable Questions
of the Hour and trailed always by a close
Knit. shadowY group, well armed and intent
upon an enveloping or f1anking movement
designed to make him a prisoner of logic or
n major casualty. Attacks and impacts are
frequent. They are not casual. They are
sudden. noisy, furious. There are sorties in
the dusk, sCuffles. shouts and cries Of pain.
No one is ever victorious. But the clash of
stupendous weapons. of ideas sharp and new,
brings sparks that often leave a momentary
revealing light upon the No Mans Land OF
national politics.
