growth of all the worst features OF
French and American republicanism
in its political life.
"NOt ASsimilated by Europe Yet"
The change is so enormous and
the circumstances of it so catastrO-
phic, that Europe has not. assimi-
lated it yet. The extremely easy
operation of putting the clock back
recommends itself to huge proper
ton of the people and Of the gov
erning classes as more feasible as
well as more congenial than the very
arduous operation of keeping it up 10
time.
The powers which are at present

ity is taken in BY the nonsense in
the press about his being there of
his own accord, as an unwelcome in
truder) are much more disposed to
put him back in Berlin than to toler-
ate Hebl.necht there, or even a So
cial-Democratic Republic. The La
Dor agitation is not preventing NJ.
Pichon from making war on the Rus
sian revolution as openly as Pitt did
on the French revolution.
In short, just as the 1915 allies,
after making war on Napoleon in the
character Of the knights of liberty
against tyranny, promptly re-estab-
lished the Bourbons when they had
disposed Of 'the Corsican usurper,"
under pretense of ridding the world
Of Jacobinism, there is every proba-
bility that the blockade may be
maintained today with the object Of
restoring monarchy in Russia, Po-
land. Austria and Germany under
pretense Of riddins the world Of Boil
shevism.
Mr.. Wilson can hardly become an
accomplice in these designs. If he
did SO he would be entering on a
course which would point to nothing
short Of the restoration Of monarchy
in the United States and its imposi-
ton on the rest Of the American
continent.
That is not the interest Of Ameri-
can capitalism any more than 1t is
the interest of the American people;
for capitalism flourishes more lux
uriantly in republics than in mon
arches, and opens the political ca
reer much more widely to the COM
mercial talent. There is a notion
prevalent among the middle classes
in England, especially the Liberal
middle classes, that kings do not
matter, as parliaments have now de-
prived them Of their power. Those
who are inside the governing classes
know better.

Cocoanut Oil Fine
For Washing Hair

If you want to keep your hair in
good condition, be careful what you
wash il with.
Most soaps and prepared shampoos
contain too much alkali. This dries
the scalp. makes the hair brittle, and
is very harmful. Just plain mulsificd
cocoanut oil (Which is pure and en-
tirely greaseless, is much better than
the most expensive soap or anything
else you can use for shampooing, as
this can't possibly iajurs the hair.
Simply moisten your hair with
water and rub It in. One or two tea
spoonfuls will make an abundance Of
rich, creamy lather, and cleanses the
hair and scalp thoroughly. The
lather rinses out easily and removes
every particle OF dust, dirt, dandruff
and excessive oil. The hair dries
quickly and evenly, and It leaves it
fine and silky, bright, fluffy and easy
10 manage.
You can get mUlsified cocoanUt oil
at most any drug store. 1t is very
cheap, and a few ounces is enough to
ast everyone in the family for months.

frontiers, which are seldom ethnog,
raphic. Meanwhile the rule should
be integration, not disruption.
And here it may be asked what is
to happen to the centralized tyranny
Of the British Isles? What about
Ireland? 0ne-quarter of Mr.. Will
sons constituents are either Irish or
German; and, reasonably or unrea-
sonably, they want him to settle both
the German and Irish questions dem.
ocratically.
Says Irish Question Is Simple.
The Irish question is very simple.
Home rule is nonsense, and always
has been nonsense. Neither Glad
stone nor Parnell, Redmond nor AS
quith could draft a home rule bill
that had any sort of constitutional
logic in it, and this not because they
were overrated statesmen, especially
Parnell, but because ropes of sand
are as impossible in politics as in
physics. Ireland must choose be-
tween being in the British empire or
out of it. If she chooses to be out
of it, it must be as a nominally indie
pendent state, like Greece or Bel
gium, whose recent experiences of
nominal independence and actual
subjugation are hardly encouraging,
and to attain this position the Irish
must wait for a miracle which will
reduce the British empire to impo-
tence.
In view of what has just happened
the wait would be a long one. What
is more, Separatist Ireland cannot
count upon the sympathy of the
United States, which in the civil war
of 1861 committed itself very prop
erly to the principle of unionism at
all costs. If, however, Ireland de-
cldes to remain in the British EN-
pire voluntarily it may fairly claim
to be in it on the same terms as Eng
land. II cannot reasonably demand
more or honorably accept less.
And this can be accomplished by a
federation Of the British Islands: a
solution at present objected to by
all the Irish parties in public, be-
cause it would destroy the national
industry OF grievance mongering,
and because the case for it exhibits
England as actually suffering more
from the absence OF a national Eng
lish Parliament than ireland, which.
having no Parliament of its own, has
at all events played the cuckoo in
the Imperial London Parliament by
the domestic affairs of Ire
land upon it almost to the exclusion
Of English domestic affairs.

sort, is almost impossible when it
touches the throne; that is why re-
form is always beginning at the
bottom, and never where it mostly
should begin, at the top. We can get
factory code in the teeth Of the
Manchester school after long strug-
gle, but a university and public
school code, an army code, a landed
estates code, are not even thought of; +;
not because they are not far more
needed than the palliations of the lot
Of the poor which are the staple of
progressive politics, but because the
court and the country house, the
public schools and the army are still
practically above the law.
Note, however, that it has been
found impossible to impose this
tyranny on the colonies. The attempt
ended in America in the breaking
away of New England and the for
nation of a federal republic. To
avoid the same disruption elsewhere,
the British empire had to grant Can
ada, Australia, and South Africa
constitutions which aSsimilated them
to the federated republics and make
it impossible to impose on them the
monarchial conditions which still pre-
vail in London, and were supreme
until the recent revolutions in Ber-
lin, Vienna, and Petrograd.
Before the war one could say that
the whole of North America and
Australia and a considerable part
of Africa had reached the federal
republican stage of political develop
ment, and were visibly lost forever
to what all good Americans call "this
king business. In the course of the
war the king business suddenly
crashed in Russia, Germany and
Austria; that is, in the bulk of
Europe, leaving problem of politi-
cal reconstruction that can only be
solved in one Of two ways, a restora-
ton or a system of federated repub-
lies.
Republican Federation Possible.
The French Republic, One and
Indivisible, is conceivable in Russia,
but hardly possible, whereas it is
neither conceivable nor possible in
Germany and Austria. What Is
both conceivable and possible is re-
publican federation. We do not want
the Austrian Empire, to which
provinces like Bosnia owe so much
of their material civilization, re-
placed by half a dozen Mexicos any
more than we want the Hapsburgs
back again. Yet even a ramshackle
empire may be an advance on an
anarchy of warlike tribes. Let us
not forget the experience of the
United States. Federation is no
more compatible than empire with
secession. Federal uniops must keep
together.
No American can have the face
to urge Bavaria and Prussia to
break asUnder instead Of maintain |
ing their organization in a German 1
federated republic; and what is good .
for the German goose is good for the /
Austrian gander. No doubt present
frontiers are unscientitic and should .
frontiers are ethnographic frontiers;
frontiers are etnographic frontiers:
and until the League of Nations .
abolishes war the only politically ,
possible frontiers are strategic .

with Great Britain as long as the
government of Ireland openly sets at
nOught every principle on which the
alliance is supposed to be based. he
certainly cannot suggest for ireland
a secession which his own federatlon
denied to Virginia, Alabama ana the
rest at the price OF a most oloody
civil war.
In short, Mr.. Wilson will be, for
the purpose of the peace conference
a republican federalist as against the
reactionists to monarchy and cen
tralization. If he could secure that
form Of government for Germany,
Austria, Russia, Slavia, and the Brlt-
ish Islands, he would make it the
rule for Europe instead of, as before
the war, the exception; and the
United States would Immediately
succeed to the political headship OF
the world.
The American President would be
the doyen among the heads Of states,
the Charlemagne, the Holy Roman
Emperor, the Apostolic Majesty, in
place of the Hapsburgs, abolished.
Let no one think that this change
has no value. 1t seems only yester-
day that the late Lord Salisbury, who
gave Heligoland to the Kaiser, re-
fused to send a British official rep
resentative to a Paris exhibition, on
the ground that a respectable king
dom could have no avoidable rela-
tons with that transitory eruption
of riff-raff called a republic. Even
so sound and recent a republican as
Mark Twain thought the United
States ambassadors in Europe would
look better in court liveries.
Health Proposed in Buckingham.
Today, as 1 write these lines, the
United States President has had his
health proposed in Buckingham
Palace by the King Of England, and
has, in that dignity of speech which
is the only reality left to majesty,
played that King of the stage. For
this, however, you must not blame
King George, who is allowed to
bring the famous gold table service
from Windsor Castle to entertain his
visitor and brother poten-
tate, but, though his worst enemies
(if he has any have never accused
him of not having plenty to say, Is
not allowed to speak for himself, but
must perforce learn by rote and re-
peat speeches the composition of

author for the post of printers devil
