SUFFERING from a complete phys
ical and nervous breakdown. President
Wilson was compelled to suddenly end
his western tour in which he sought
to place before the people the
principles of the League of Nations,
and he has been brought back home to
Washington a very sick man. His
condition is such that he must have alb
soIute quiet and rest for weeks to
come, and it will be a long time be-
fore he will be able to attend to pub.
lie business.
President Wilson has done a giants
work in formulating the terms Of a
lasting peace among the nations Of the
earth, and his unceasing labors, taxing
his strength beyond the limits of hui
man endurance, have brought the pres
ent collapse. Had he received loyal
cooperation from our own people he
would not now be in this condition.
But partisan rancor and political malice
and personal hatred have been so Bit
tcrly directed that he has had to bear
more than he can stand.
The friends Of justice and world
wide peace will earnestly pray that the
President may speedily recover and re-
gain his strength in such measure as
will enable him to confound his
enemies and bring peace to the earth
according to the principles Of the
League Of Nations.

THE strike Of the iron and steel
workers continues, but the chances that
the men will win are growing less day
by day. There are dissensions in the

servatives opposing the foreign ele-

which is trying to involve other branch
es of industry. VIM. z. Foster, the
strike leader. is becoming decidedly I'M
popular as his record is being shown
up, and men of sense are losing what
little confidence they had in him. In
the meantime, most of the big plants
are running in fairly good order. and
each day shows an improvement in
conditions. Foster tried to engineer a
big strike among the employees of the
Bethlehem Steel Company, but it was
fiat failure.
The opinion is growing that the strike
is in reality the work of Bolshevists
and German propagandists, who are
using the foreign element in this coun-

ideas.

THE city of Omaha seems to have
reverted to type. II gave itself over
to an orgy of rioting last Saturday and
Sunday that is almost unparalleled. A
negro had committed a dreadful crime
against a white girl, for which he was
arrested and lodged in jail. A mob
clamored for him, but he was protect
ed from them by the police and city
officials. The mob then went wild and
captured the city. The mayor was
beaten almost to death and narrowly
escaped hanging, the million-dollar
courthouse was burned, one man was
killed and forty others were injured.
They got the negro, shot him, dragged
him through the streets, burned him
and then hung UP to pole what was
left of him. United States soldiers
had to be called in to take charge of the
city, and order has once more been re-
stored.
Critics will kindly take notice that
Omaha is not a Southern city.
