A QUICK NIGHT

A trainload of newly drafted men
reached their cantonment late in the af-
ternoon. BY the time they had passed
through the receiving station and the
hands of the doctors it was nearly mid
night. Several of them were awakened
at four o'clock the following morning to
assist the cook in preparing breakfast.

vHE RECONSTRUCTION PERIOD

The war is over and policies OF indus
trial and economic construction will be
the order of the day.
In nearly all Of the western states the
elections showed strong disposition OF
the voter to stand for sound policies.
Candidates and organizations TOO
strongly loaded up with socialistic inclln-
ations or revolutionary propositions were
showed under.
Initiatives and referendums, amend
ments to constitutions and proposed con-
stitutional conventions generally went by
the board.
While radical labor politicians were ev..
erywhere defeated the determination OF
the western states is not against labor as
such.
Fair wage and living conditions are re-
garded as essential to permanent and
peaceful relations between Industry and
capital.
Now comes the long strong pull to-
gether for upholding the payrolls and the
productive resources of the western
states.
The undeveloped and unoccupied lands,
the millions of acres Of logged-off,
brush, swamy and timber lands are the
problem. .,.
How to get labor to bring them under
cultivation and make them produce the
necessities Of life for the world is the
problem.
The canning and preserving of vege-
tables and fruits and the increase of dairy
products make cheap farm labor indis-
pensible
How to get this labor for the period OF
reconstruction and necessary extension

There must be some patriotic coopera.

views to make our country productive.

THE GREAT EXPERIMENT.
BY Franklin X. Lane

There is no such thing as Americanism
unless Americanism is in our soul. We
have got to feel it first and then we have
got to put it out among other people.
American is an inspiration. American
is spirit. It is the constant and contin-
uous searching of the human heart for
the thing that is better.
Our wars have been fought by men Of
foreign birth, We see their name every
day in the list of those who are dead on
the battlefields of France.
There is no such thing as an American
race, except the Indians. We are fash
Joining out new people. We are doing
the unprecedented thing in saying that
Slav, Teuton, Celt, and the other races
that make up the civilized world are ca
pable Of being blended here, and we say
this upon the theory that blood alone does
not control the desting Of men; that out
Of his environment his education, the
food he eats, the neighbors that he has,
the work that he does, there can be form
ed and realized spirit, an ideal which
will master his blood
We are trying great experiment in
the United States. Can we gather to-
gether people of different races, creeds,
conditions and aspirations who can be
merged into one?
If we cannot do this, we will fail indeed
we will have already failed. If we do this
we will produce the greatest of all ma
tons, new race that will hold long a
compelling place in the world.

TURN THE AMERICANS LOOSE

When as q whole the American nation
pr0spered more in fifty years before the
war without socialism than any Of the
socialistic or paternalistic nations Of the
rest of the world, it is worth renarldng
that the sooner the American people are
left to resume normal conditions OF at
tending to their own business the better.
All the boards, commissions, functionar- !
les and army experts and specialists that
have been created by the war are saying
their services are indispensable for at
least two years to keep the country from
going to the bow bows.
This is not the case, Americans do not
need to be coddled. War measures are
one thing, peace measures another.
All citizens should be free to resume
normal activities and private initiative
should be free to reach out for starting
everything from the smallest to the great
est enterprises. The sooner the entangle-
ments of red tape can be taken off the
better for our country. The military es.
Establishment will take several years to adj
Just itself to peace conditions, but the CIV
il army of directing officialism in food,
farming, building, manufacturing and
transportation must also be disbanded
and Americans must resume the Ameri-
can ways if business is to prosper and in
dustries are to become normal. Ameri-
cans can be trusted to storm the breast
works of business apathy and the fort
resses of suspended or congested circula-
ton and restore the equilibrium.

An exchange has got into hot water for expressing the
belief that American soldier killed in France will have
his sins forgiven For expressing this belief the paper
has been severely criticised by some of the orthodox
sisters and it made haste to confess that it knows but
little about theology. The Sun is than ever con-
WINGED that it will be vel for editors to refrain from
expressing opinions upon such subjects We don't be-
eve that editor knows any about what becomes
of man after he is dead than any one else-than a
preacher, for instance. ".
