SHEEP AND DOGS.


Putting aside the sentimental, and facing
the grim truth, there IS every argument for
replacing useless dogs of this nation in
great degree with sheep. The idea is not
new. and it has been placed before the
people in many forms, emphasizing eco
nomic advantages. It remained for A. D.
Folkner, county farm agent of Shawnee
county, Kansas, to compile definite figures
on dog population and food consumption.
According to Mr. FoIkner in his small
county a population of 6,0G0 dogs is
maintained They consume enough food
each day to feed 600 Belgian orphans, OF
$34 a year per dog. A sheep can BE- raised
for the cost of dog 1t will yield S. worth
of wool annually and $40 worth of meat
when killed as against a nominal killing
value on dogs in case their hides are turned
into gloves Mr.. Folkner believes that the
replacement of dogs with sheep would save
$4,000 worth of food for the country
yearly, and he favors federal tax on dogs
of S to $40, according to breed and use
fulness.
In icy-cold figures the Kansan is prob
ably correct 1t is more than possible that
his figures are placed too low. His conclu-
sions could be carried further TO show
added meat products to the nation supply,
increased wool supply, greater values from
fertilizer, and reduction in the high cost
of living
But, he is proposing the impossible-the
complete elimination of sentiment from
humans Imagine the boy of ten years
whose heart does not thrill at the possession
of a dog! Imagine the American who has
no love for pets
When you have conjured up in your
minds eye these creatures you have created
Boches. Only such men could hack off the
hands of Belgian babies, tear out the hearts
of Belgian women and shed the blood of
innocents. Perhaps Kultur might eliminate
the dogs and substitute sheep, but the sac
rifice of joy, sentiment, love, and Ameri-
canism is greater than the sacrifice of food
which goes to maintain American pets.
Arthur Brisbane Walker, in an editorial
in his Washington Times, upon the para
mount subject, Immortality, declares; y
predict that the mysterious force atom
called your soul will exist and know itself
and its friends ten thousand billions of cen
turtles from now and be as young as ever.
This is encouraging, especially that part
about knowing your friends again. To have
and hold friend a billion years is the most
cheering thought that could light candle
of deathless joy in the mind. As Walt
Mason, the Kansas philosopher ad poet
once said in his most famous poem:
I don't care for snowy gowns,
Or for harps and golden crowns,
For ! fear that endless songs
Would be bore;
But I'll meet my dear old friends
Where the sky of Aidenn bends
And well visit on a star forevermore.

Suffrage aud tho South

g UUTHERN members of Congress who were
~ not stampedcd into voting for the suf-
! trage amendment in the House need not
I make apology TO their people for their posi-
ton long they stand upon the high
ground of public welfare. But when they
| descend to Il defense Of their action on the
plea that they might lose their powerful
chairmanshps, through punitive measures
| because OF opposition to this amendment, they
will lose the sympathy Of most Southern
people.
These Southcrners have sound reasons for
fighting tho acknowledgment ut the women
Of America by sweeping constitutional
methods They may properly resent the
imposition Of woman suffrage upon their
States by the North and West They know
the dangers OF cnfranchisng millions of
negro women. and owe it to their constitu-
cncies to protect them against such cond-
ton as long as they may have the power to
do 1t. They do not need TO deprive any
Northern or Western State Of female enfran-
chiscmcnt. Those State extend voting
privileges 10 their women whenever they
choose without regard for the votes OF South
ern congressman.
But when representatives Of Southern COM
munities vote in Congress for a suffrage
amendment in order to escape possible pun
lshment in the loss of political prestige they
invite the scorn OF their people and the rdi-
cnlc or the whole country. Happily, only 4
small group OF Southerners-about forty in
al--scems to have been Influenced by such a
consideration. The great body of Congress
men from the South assumed whatever risk
there was involved in adverse vote upon
the amendment. They voiced their convic-
tons, serving notice upon the rema nder Of
the country that they are willing TO be de-
priYcd Of their influential positions in the
House. If that is to he the price they must
pay.
The suffrage amendment now goes before
the Senate The same impassioncd fight will
take place the floor OF that body for its
adoption The same issue will be forced
with respect to the Souths position, and
Southern Senators will be placed under ter
rife pressure from all quarters. It remains
TO be seen how many Of them will surrender
their convictions TO expedency. 1t remain
to be seen whether politics weighs more
heavily with them than the wclfarp or their
States.

German Dreams OF Conquest


DRESIDENT WILSON, in a mastery indict-
[ mcnt of the war party in Germany, has
shown the duplicity of the Berlin government
IN its dealings with Russia, and has exposed
tho utter hypocrisy of that government Ill
its appeal for support at homo on the ground
that its war with the allies is war Of self
defense. IL now remains to be seen If the
German people themselves consent to a war
Of conquest or if their real sentiment was ex-
pressed in the no-anrexation-no-indcm
resolution of tho Reichstag, passed in July.
The issue is squarely up to the German
people themselves. If they propose no sub
jugation Of any enemy, they can repudiate the
peace proposals which have been made to the
Russians. They may speak through the Reich
stag, the only parliamentary body in the en-
pire, and serve notice upon the world
that they will not sustain policy Of con-
quest on the part OF the government.
There is another phase of this matter to
be rcckoned with The German people have
poured out lmitless treasure in this war.
They have given their best blood to it, and
have sacrificed millions of lives in the conflict.
Arc they willing that peace shall be made
with Russia that gives them nothing in re-
turn for the expenditures which they havo
made? Does the German government dare
return to its people empty handed?
This is a serious question and one which
by Germany upon Russia. II may be, after
all, that the German people have the same
sense Of greed that actuates the military
party, and that they will refuse to repudiatc
that party as long it stands for the same
pound OF flesh which they covct.
If this proves to BIO true, the only end OF
this war is complete and crushing military
victory on the part OF the allies. The Ger
man people will have to BIO shown by the
only argument which they seem to understand
that they must surrender the lands which
they now occupy and must content them
selves with future within their own from
tiers.
Peace would be nearer if the people Of
Germany were made now to realize that ulti-
mate triumph is impossible. They are now
deluded, TO some extent, at least into the
belief that their armies are invncblc; that
the territory which they have taken can
never be reclaimed by force Of arms, and
that they arc, in effect, conquerors at this
moment. II this deiusion is destroyed, there
can be no doubt as 10 the Willingness OF the
Germans 10 accept such peace as President
Wilson and Lloyd George have offered them.
