Reckless Driving.

Reckless driving between
Holyoke ond Haxtun last Fri.
day evening resulted in damag

giving a narrow escape to the
occupants OF the cars. As 70

the reckless driving in making
a trip to Haxtun. He met q
string of cars and run his car
SO close TO them that he struck
q wheel on the first car, caught
the next car, driven by Cooley
Crow, in such manner - to
tear q wheel from each car and
threw his car into the third car
with force enough to come near
knocking it into the ditch.

gree of self-government, There
is a good deal to be said on each
side Of the case, and we our
selves cannot truly profess any
particularly passionate zeal for
either. 1t impresses us as a
question which is to be decided
calmly, on the basis Of the mu.
tual and permanent welfare of
both the United States and the
various peoples of the Philip.
pine Islands.
On one point. however. there
should be no possible room for
any decent divergence of opin-
ion. That is, that however the
question may finally be decided
it is a question which lies be-
tween the United States and
the Philippines and between
them alone, and is to be decid-
ed by they and by them alone.
without the intervention of any
other power.
The astounding suggestion
has been made by senator of
the United States, Mr.. Walsh,
OF Massachusetts, that on the
initiative of this country the
Filipinos should he invited to
appeal to the Paris Peace Con-
gress against us aud to seek its
Intervention in their behalf.
We are not sure that more e.
gregiously self.stultifying prop
osition was ever made by any
responsible American states
man.
1t is, in brief, a proposal to
carry our own soiled linen be-
fore the public of the world for
washing. aud ask other nations
to manipulate til: soap and

feseion that we are probably

is indisputable that at prescnt
our sovereignty is ~ complete
over them as it is. for example.
over Alaska. 1t is 40 recogniz.
ed by every nation of the world
and Of course our responsibility
for them is equally complete
and indisputablr. In other
words. our relations with them
are purely domestic. and not a.
all international in character.
There il no more excuse for re-
ferring those relations to an a.
lian tribunal than there would
have been for thus referring g the

in 1861. or than there would
have been for referring

scored again today In their fight for
loyalty at Lowden. The grand jury
returned two indictments after cx-
amining about fifteeN witnesses. A,
Frund and II. W. AIbers were mdict-
ed.
Frund is merchant and WAS In,
dcted for Illegal sale OF deadly weap-

Aibers was indicted for carrying
concealed weapons,
'Albers was one of a force of special
officers whom the former mayor had
provided as bodyguard when the row
started at Lowden two weeks ago.
Soldier Struck walked thru the whole
squad which was armed like Albers,
and gave the mayor beating which
resulted in his resignation the next
day.
Later two councilmen were, forced
out and two others had to take a spe-
cial oath of 100 per cent Americanism.
Then the loyalists-appealed to the
grand jury to help clean up the COM
munity. The indictments resulted.
They will be test cases. The prose-
cutting attorney says that both cases

are charged with felonies.
