left for a greater length of time, par great and the officers scheme would allow this providing the ordinance is changed. It has been while he was on duty at the corner of Church and Main that he has used his eyes and wits to solve the parking difficult ties. This, then, is the plan. Allow indefinite parking along the south side of Church street and none at all on the north side, which is to be kept open for traffic. This would not make a one way street of Church street but merely make new parking re- strictions and at the same time allow a place near the center north of the Center church, where doctors and others on business about the center could leave their cars for a time.
 In defense of the plan Officer Lam phere points out that the tro1leys pass only one way along Church street and temporary parking to the north side
 
 condition in which automobiles or , trolleys have to stop to let the other Nass if they are headed in opposite directions. If there were cars parked on the north side this would not occur and an automobile would have a clear way in a westerly direC- tion even if a trolley were coming east. Automobiles going east, with the trolleys would be unable to pass them, probably, because of the cars that are parked on their side of the street, but there are. few times that that may be done, as things are now. Usually a machine has to follow the trolley until Elm street is reached, where the trolley may be passed. There is nothing to lose if the or dinance is adopted and there is a little gain. The use of one side of street for parking will be appreciat ted l by many.

lowing extra, On news then more than 21 days familiar to all newspaper readers among the Am meriCan people:
 "When the senator from Connect icut showed me thiS article before the assem bling Of the senate, it seemed to me inconceivable that the fourth article should be there. 1 supposed the editor, Col. Harvey, was very ac- curate and careful, but it seemed to me simply inconccivable. l saw d copy of the London Times containing the fourth article from the White Book which was laid before the house of commons, but I could not get a copy in private hands. However, I afterward tound a copy of the French paper Figaro It is a Paris paper un- der the date of July 3, and carried on it's front page this article, headed Guarantees of Peace.
 This is an excellent example of the myticism which antG-Dellum states men so often surround their actlNl- ties Talking about White Books and Thunderers. and Paris Figaros, to nresent an appearance Of knowing everything. these senatorial birds did not know that the facts they were nroCla1ming had been printed in every newspaper in their own country.

Col. Harvey is the same publisher who declared that America did not win the war, though General Persh- ing had reported the war won, Ca re- port also printed in every American newspaper), when the American doughboys severed the German line of communication beyond Argonne forest.
 Think of a great editor soemnIy telling his readers that the French treaty is new, three weeks after it has ben printed in every American news paper.
 Think of Lodge and Brandegee, who pose as authorities on foreign affairs, solemnly and ridiculously quoting from the British White Book, the London Times and the Paris Fi- garo, the terms of au important state paper. as being for the first time made known, V hen there was in the whole of the United States no news paper reader from a DOotblack to a millionaire who had not three weeks earlier read every last word of that important state paper in his own fav- orite newspaper.
 Do Harvey. Ledge and Brandegee know that Abraham Lincoln is dead? Do they know that the war is over? Do they know that the world is tired of war, and that it wants to make treaty providing against future wars? Fellow Americans, let us at the earliest opportunity get ourselves senators who ride on trolley cars, use telephones and read the newspapers, and who know what the people want.

 Whether Senator Brandegee of Connecticut and Senator Lodge of Massachusetts are possessed this spe- clal information does not appear. but they have achieved more massive and more truly comprehensive ignor- ancc.
 In the afternoon pIpers on July g. and in the morning newspapers of July f, the text of the treaty for the defense of Frarce was printed yer Uatin.
 Just three wells later Harvcv's Weekly printed the text of the treaty, in the belief that it was doing some thing new, and for the information of it's readers added that ito the best of our knowledge it has not been pub lished in this country.''

RACE RIOTS IN CHICAGO.

Though the development of racial antagonism in any district whatever is a subject which is extremely dis tasteful to us and one difficult to discuss, the troubles in Chicago, following closely upon those in Washington, between whites and blacks, will not bear further slight when a dissertation upon the days news is undertaken. The riots in Washington are now, we hope, matter of history and the results are we'll known. Those in Chicago are seemingly still in their infancy. While this is being written the wires from the Western city are telling of new killings and the total of 22S persons murdered by mobs has now been reached. Chicago is scarcely a healthy place to be about in, Tor either race.
 When news stories of the past are taken into consideration, one cannot help but wonder if the riots are a reaction from the earlier attempts of prO-Germans to stir up race an- tagonism hereabOuts. We were told of plots in the South to antagonize the blacks against their white coun- trymen and regarded them with little anticipation of their fulfllment Now we pay more attention. Peculiarly enough the trouble has developed in the two cities where we might SUD- pose that propaganda work would be entrated-Washingt gton, the cap- ital of the nation. and Chicago, whose pro- German tendencies are already known. There are a greater number of German citizens in Chicago than in any other American city in pro- portion to the population. Can that have anything to do with the riots?
 The negro, ordinarily, is a law some outside infuence There are some of the race that are prone to commit deeds of violence and no one deplores their usual punishment, even their own race. But the organized shooting affrays of the past few weeks are not common with the to fight in this manner. He must be getting encouragement from some outside source.
