THE ENHANCEMENT BUGAB0O

Senator Reed had one Of his Justly familiar ats in
the senate the other day over the prospect that through
the creation OF a league Of nations the United States was
to become entangled In the politics Of Europe and other
parts of the world less particularly specified.
Senator Reed is interesting as an example Of the
survival through all the changing scenes Of life OF the
bourbon politician, who never learns and never forgets.
To him that which was, is. and shall continue to be.
world without end.
OF late years the bombastic attitude Of Germany has
received no little unfavorable comment. We have seen,
or we have protested to see. in the German protestations
and convictions of their superiority over all the rest OF
the world. one of the moving causes OF the war. We
have insisted that any nation which entertains that sort
of opinion of itself is q dangerous neighbor. and that
Germany must be whipped into a different frame OF
peace with her. But Prussiap junkerdonn at its worst
has nothing on Senator Reed. With the lessons of HUI
mility taught by four years of>war right before him. Mr.,
Reed sets forth in a manner truly sophomore, the claims
Of American superiority to everything else in Me world.
and declares that when Germany had almost destroyed
freedom in Europe, this nation stepped unprepared and
unarmed into the conflict and decided 1t.
Mr. Reed might more appropriately have said that
after permitting other nations for nearly three years to
fight our battles for us we did at length take up arms
and that we made up in some measure by tn, rapidity of
our action for the hardness Of our entrance.
Naturally, a mentality Of that sort grows excited at
the prospect Of foreign ENHANCEMENT. The fact that our
most studious effort to remain aloof from a war in which
many of our people thought we had no part, was ineffect-
ual in keeping us out of it. In spite of ourselves we be-
came entangled, to the tune of fifty thousand lives and
perhaps fifty billion dollars. But Mr.. Reed thinks that
we should now withdraw into our shell and take no steps
to prevent another war. Isn't it remarkable that we
have made such progress in spite of men like Reed?

THE KAISER AND HOLLAND

The residence of William of Hohenzollern in Holland
has already caused some unfavorable comment, and If 1t
is prolonged it is certain to result in the development of
some delicate problems, both for the Allied nations and
for Holland.
In a general way the right of a nation to grant asylum
to q political refugee from another country is universally
conceded. But peculiar circumstances may modify the ex-
ercise of that right. A nation is not expected to permit
person. residing within its jurisdiction to conduct plots
and plans aimed at the destruction of the political sys-
TENS of other countries, or at acts unfriendly to them, es-
pecially if these plans partake Of a military nature. 1t
is easy to see why the nations which have SO lately been
at war with Germany, and which have not yet concluded
terms of peace with her. might regard the residence OF
the late kaiser so near his former territories as a menace
to the peace of the world, and that they should, on that
account, be led to make forceful representations to Hol-
land to induce her to expel the Hohenzollern from her
territories.
Even if no demand should be made by the Entente
powers for the expulsion of the ex-kaiser, it seems more
than likely that the Dutch government itself may take
steps to rid itself of the presence Of a man who must be
an unwelcome visitor. Whether or not William becomes
involved in plots looking toward his restoration. there
will always be the suspicion that he is active in this man.

WIRE WAS NECESSARY.

Portland, Or, Nov. 26.-Although
official christenings Of cargo carriers
which slide from Portland ways from
time to time are made with apple
Juice, loganberry juice or ginger ale,
due to the difficulty Of getting the
"real article" in dry territory, it has
been learned that none Of the ships
launched by the Northwest Steel COM
pany has been water-borne without
having an additional, although unof-
hcial, christening with champagne.
This Is hue to the superstition Of a
certain foreman, who has to do with
the construction OF all the 8,S00-ton
steel monsters built at the Northwest
cofnpany's yards. Soft drinks, In the
opinion Of this expert, are entirely In
adequate for purposes OF christening,
and. while some maid or matron,
chosen to perform the ceremony,
breaks q bottle of non-alcoholic con-
tent upon the deck Of the vessel, the
foreman stands ready with his quart

TO BE EXPECTED

An organization has been formed in Ohio for the
purpose, so it is announced. of crystallzing the sentiment
that already exists in favor Of the nomination and election
of General Pershing as president of the United States in
1920.
This was inevitable. No man distinguishes himself
in a large way but somebody proposes that he be made
president. And General Pershing has some highly cred
liable achievements to his credit. 1t would have been ut
terly out of keeping with the orderly sequence of things,
therefore, not to have a presidential boom started for
him.
General Pershing may be excellent presidential tim
Der for all we know. But the fact that he has organized
and directed great armies successfully does not prove it.
A man may be a fine soldier and a poor statesman. 1t
has been so in some cases in the past. One need 60 back
no further than the case of General Grant for an illus
trauon. Later We have the case Of Admiral Dewey. q
brilliant naval commander upon whom sorrow and hui
initiation were brought by the injudicious activity of I'M
discriminating friends who insisted on booming him for
the presidency.
In the immediate present we have the case OF Henry
Ford, not a military man, it is true. but a successful man
ufacturer, whose only contact with public life had been Of
such a nature as to demonstrate his utter unfitness for it.
but who, nevertheless, was considered, by virtue OF his
manufacturing success to be suitable for the totally differ
et work of the United States senate, and who came
within a handful of votes Of being elected to that body.
1t is no kindness to General Pershing to contribute
to a movement for his nomination for president on the
strength of his military record. If those who know the
man best, and who are competent to judge, are convinced
that in addition to his splendid military qualities he pos
sesses those which are needed in the discharge Of the
duties of president, we'll and good. But the presidency
Is too big a job to hand over to anybody merely as a re-
ward of merit.

GERMANS AND THEIR
WAR BILLS
:tFrom The Minneapolis Tribune

lFrom The Minneapolis Tribune.)
The Germans have learned by BIT
ter experience that It does not pay
to become an armed burglar and 60
forth to steal the world. The lesson
will sink deeper and deeper into Ger
man consciousness as the years 20 on.
The Teuton burglar did not get
away with the job he set out to do,
but he is responsible for a clash OF
forces that has cost the nations. ac-
cording to careful authority, $780,
C00,000.c00. Greater still than this
bill is, OF course. the toll OF human
l,fe and the manning Of human
bodies.
Stopped in his tracks, the burglar
was overpowered by superior forces
gtrt with the spirit Of right. He is
now being %pinioned. and the next
thing is for him to pay for his wicked
adventure.
Germany has a home war debt Of
435.000.00o, 000. The obligation is
owing almost entirely to the German
people who subscribed to German
bond Issues. II this debt 10 paid in

Seattle, Wash, Nov. 26.-That the
