No Repetition of History Here.

Efforts of Washington analysts to establish
an analogy between the situation of President
Wilson and that of Grover Cleveland when he
took Office, or of Mr.. Taft during the latter half
of his term are scarcely warranted by facts.
Mr.. Cleveland faced a republican congress,
pledged to certain fundamental policies at vari-
ance with the thought of the executive How
ever, he found ample support for many substan-
tial reforms brought about under his admins
tration General conditions were then much
different from those now prevailing. The coun-
try under Hayes, Garfield and Arthur, had but
emerged from the reconstruction period and
was taking on its new life. To these problems
Mr.. Cleveland addressed himself with wisdom,
and while he did not succeed in bringing sup
port to his notions of the tariff, his was sue
cessful administration in many ways.
Mr.. Taft was suddenly confronted by DEM
ocratic house, bent on undoing everything of a
constructive character he had undertaken. With
Champ Clark in the speakers chair, the demo-
cratic majority cut down the plans for national
defense, destroyed the tariff commission, hooted
at the presidents recommendations for reform
ing the administrative work of the government,
tossed the proposed budget plan into the dis
card and generally upset all the program for
progress.
Nothing like that impends with the forth
coming congress. Republicans are pledged to
the protection of the national rights and insti-
tutions at home and abroad. Whatever is
necessary for the successful prosecution OF the
war will be amply provided. Greater than this,
all that is prudent or wise for the re-establish-
ment of industry and commerce on peace
basis will be carefully attended to. Mr.. Will
sons personal views will receive respectful con-
sideration at all times, so that he will lose none
of his constitutional prestige as president of
the United States and commandment chief of
its army and navy.
White House schemes for the perpetuation
of the democratic party in power will be re-
garded as such, but the government Of the coun-
try and its proper administration will be the
gamer because of renewed republican control
of congress. The people understood the issues
clearly and made their decision accordingly.

A Vision for Foch.

In one of the great galleries at Berlin hangs
picture that has been reverenced by Germans
for years 1t depicts Bismarck at Versailles,
debating to the French commissioners the
harshest terms for peace ever enforced on a
conquered nation in civilized times. The great
Prussian, with cold-blooded deliberatfon, laid
down conditions intended not only to remind
the French crushed and Inundated as they were,
of their impotence to resist at the time, but to
keep them defenseless against Germany for gen.
erations. Bismarck spared them nothing Fer
dinand Foch was lieutenant in the army then
destroyed by Prussia He has grown with
France, has seen the wreaths laid on the Strass-
burg statue and has dreamed the dream of all
patriotic Frenchmen. He has gone through
the stress and trials of this wonderful war and
knows just what it has cost France and human
ity. When the German white flag party calls
at his headquarters he will have in mind that
picture which inspired the Hun at the outset of
the war. Therefore, we may safely leave it to
Foch. His judgment will be righteous

THE MEETING POINT,

From out Of the wilds Of Africa
dusky soldier came,
Brave and firm and ready to fight,
Proud was he Of his name
When first he heard the lannon's roar
And felt the rain of lead
Down on his knees he fell at once
And worshipped his long gone dead.
A polu marched to the battle front
To give his all for France;
OF courage strong and brave at heart
He longed for true mans chance.
One day he saw an image stand
In the midst Of a shell-wrecked inn;
"Cest Dieu," he cried, as he fell on his
knees
And repented for all his sin.
A British Tommy went to war
Not care had he;
And he wished right well to meet the
And strike for Democracy.
From out Of He'll he came one day.
Free from any wound:
And he thanked the Lord that he was
still
In the trenches, eastward bound
Months passed by, and these three men
stood
After battle won,
And looked upon Red Cross nurse
Give aid to wounded son.
Each one in turn his hat removed,
Each one murmured low;
Cor here on the bloodstained battle
ground
Each did true God know.

Soothing the Sweet Tooth

The latest order of the food board, increasing
the allowance of sugar from two pounds
month for each individual to three pounds, will
be hailed with relief in millions of homes. An
increase of one-half in the consumption of sugar
will take the hardship out of situation which
has taxed the ingenuity of housewives and of the
chefs and stewards of hotels and restaurants
Mr.. Hoover's explanation of the increase is
that the saving has been great during the last
four months of conservation, that the crop of
western beet sugar is now coming into the mar
ket rapidly; that the transportation for the beet
sugar and the cane crop from Louisiana has
greatly improved while in the offing there is
big crop coming from Cuba. All these contrib
uting factors no doubt help in increasing the
sugar supply. But there is behind more far
reaching and dominant factor in the situation
Fewer ships are to be required to take soldiers
overseas and it will be possible to find vessels
to bring sugar from the East Indies, where the
production has not been interfered with by the
war, but the market has been well nigh de.
stroyed.
Only week or two ago housewives were
asked to pledge themselves to use only two
pounds mouth for each member of their fam
lies, on the basis Of an indefinite demand abroad
and an indefinite restriction in the sources Of
supply to this country and Cuba. The in
dehniteness is being removed from the situation
In great chunks every day, and with the grow
ing belief that the end of the war is in sight Mr..
Hoover relaxes his restrictions as he did not
dare to do even fortnight ago. The fruits OF
victory are sweet in the mouth already.-Brook-
lyn Eagle.

NEBRASKA REPUBLICAN.

The extent of the republican revival is no.
where more strikingly demonstrated than right
here in Nebraska.
Nebraska, after the first of the year, will
have republican governor and complete set
of republican officers in the state house.
Nebraska will be represented in the lower
house at Washington by six republican con-
gressmen and has reelected its republican
United States senator.
Nebraska will have legislature so over
whelmingly republican in both branches that
it will take searching party to find the dem
ocratic members.
Nebraska county offices for the next four
years will be manned by republicans in greater
numbers than ever in their history.
Not since before old populist days has there
been anything approaching counterpart of
this political situation.
The republican party has been reinstated in
control witt manifestation of trust and conf
rlence by the people of Nebraska that calls for
thorough appreciation of the responsibility i'm
posed.
1t devolves upon every officer elected as a
republican not only to do his duty as required
by law, but to do it in way to reflect credit
on those who put him there
The republican party can stay in power in
Nebraska indefinitely if it will deserve tiff the
men it has honored will conscientously en-
deavor to deliver the goods the people have a
right to expect from them.
