MILITARY GERMANY GOES
OUT Of EX|STANCE WITH
ACTION Of PEACE COUNCIL

conducted with the Germans TO the
delivery of the documents and their
return for it's signature or such other
action as they desire to take.
1t Is known definitely that Count
Won Bernstorff. former German am
bassador to the United States, will
not be one of the German delegates at
Versailles.
The presence of Premier Lloyd
George in Paris is permitting of daily
conferences of the premiers of the
powers as a sort of steering commit
tee to direct the course of the main
work of the conference.
The session this morning was at
tended by Premiers Clemenceau and
Lloyd George and Col, Il. M. House,
representing President Wilson. Pre-
mier Orlando, OF Italy, will join the
other premiers tomorrow. and when
President Wilson arrives 1t Is expect
ed that these conferences of the gov
ernment heads gradually will take
the place OF the council of great pow
ers which experience has shown to
give too much time to speeches. The
conference of the premiers are pro-
viding an effective executive organi-
cation for the rapid discharge of bnsis
ness This rapidity insures the draft
ing of the peace treaty within the
limit fixed, a week from next Thurs
day.

Unicn City Nine. Lensky gave us q
new vision of Carmen. She visual
lied the tickle Spanish beauty in a
way that is appealing to all lovers
CT music. She has given the critics
something to ponder over. Certain
ly no more bewitching Carmen has
been seen on any stage. That is how
we would describe he: and her art.
1t may be ultra praise, but perhaps
we will be allowed a little latitude
in these comments. AS far as the
commentator is concerned it was by
far the finest "Habanera" we have
heard.
Nine. Lensky will not remember
us unkindly. Evidently the people
Of Union City saw her at her best
and they appreciated the compli-
ment. They were unstinted in her
praise and unreserved in the recep-
ton.

MIR. Kline.

! On Saturday afternoon and eve.
ming we had the Harvestcrs, very
interesting sketch Organization OF
three artists, featuring rural and
musical combinations. 1t was all
very fine. The voices arc good, es-
pecially the baritone, and one of the
finest bits of acting was his charac-
| ter work in the old checker player
The Harvesters had very kind re-
ception and they arc very clever in
| deed
On Saturday evening, Mr.. Kline,
very popular here with some of the
strongest supporters of the Chautau-
qua, was presented in one of the
finest addresses of all the platform
discussions we have had the pleas
ure of hearing. His subject was
"The New Competition, declaring
that practical idealism is an asset
of Americas greatness. r. E. P.
Kline's success with the Chautauqua
work is contemporaneous with it's
growth and he has in this, his lat
est effort, made a tremendous hit.
He is rather Wilsonesque in his
dress and appearance. His goggles
shine and his keep-cool suit is spot
less and shapely.
Mr.. Kline carried us over to Cleve-
land to illustrate his point of prac-
tfcal idealism. In the operation of
an industrial plant at that place the
profit sharing system was adopted.
The operatives who had been with
the company two years were allowed
to- enjoy, in addition to their wages,
the same dividends that were credit
ed to the security holders. Those
who had been there one year receiv-
ed fifty per cent of these dividends.
The industry was a phenomenal sue
cess. And so, the success particular
ly of those governments and BUSH
ness enterprises which maintain lib
eral and reciprocal relations.
Idealism as distinguished from
the baser of all systems, money-mak-
ing, is highly practical. 1t is in
deed, according to Mr.. Kline, the
only true conception of national and
individual opportunity.
1t was idealism which inspired the
colonists to seek the privileges of a
broader citizenship in America, and
it was still greater idealism which
prompted them to set UP an indie
pendent government of sovereign
states. In the League of Nations
covenant we have the most remark
able example of idealism, and Mr..
Kline begged to say that if we re-

admirable qualities of her work, and
she convinced us CT range and ver-
satility practically unlimited. It
was all really wonderful to have one
SO gifted to sing to an audience in
Union City in tent without any
support but the piano (by the way
in the hands of another artist. 1t
was trying test to sing under a
canvas muffling the voice and over
Z campus partly covered with wat az.
Contrast this with a prima donna
singing to metropolitan audience
in a house CT scientific acoustics and
supported by company of artists, a
superb orchestra and talented cho-
rue. All this occurred to us, but it
was not until "Habanera," the song
number from Carmen, was render
ed that we positively marveled. New
er before has anyone heard a more
charming interpretation of Bizets
popular love song. Probably the
queen of all Carmens was Calve. In
any event she was accorded first
place both as an actress and as a
singer in the title role of the opera,
and right we'll did she reign in the
part. But on Monday evening in
The commercial. (Union City, Tenn.) 190?-193?, 1919-06-27

was enjoyed immensely. The artists
all came together for the evening
performance at the tent. The audi
ence was unusually large, stimulat-
ed no doubt by the afternoon con-
cert, and the enthusiasm was :iber-
al indeed. But it must not be for
gotten that the quality of discrim-
nation prevailed. Our musicians
were all there and they seemed to be
completely charmed with the per-
formance.
Nine. Lonsky appeared for the
first few numbers She seemed to
be pleased with the reception. The
string quartette followed with like
demonstration of approval. They
played program of varied themes
and movements, and the quality
which seemed to make them SO pop
ular was a mutual sympathy and un-
derstanding. So well trained and
drilled have they become that the
effects produced az wonderful.
They seem to come frGm marvel
ously blended combination of string
cd voices. Indeed they were almost
counterpart of the human voice.
1t must be remembered that next
to the voice the violin best inter-
prets that organ when the instru-
ment is in the hands of master. A
few years ago l mistoOk tie NOES of
violin for the real voice. The
music came from an adjoining room,
and | was told that It was our own
"Joe" playing his violin. No man
probably has ever produced pufer
notes on al. instrument. The string
co artists are worthy CT the tri-
umphs they have achieved. They
were with tho President on the Geo.
Washington and he was very fond of
their work. This is one of Mr.. Har
rison's best numbers.
But of Nine Lensky. Shall we
say that Union City has never before
heard so charming an artist? That
would be unfair probably to the 9th
or singers that have visited us be-
fore. But the audience undoubted
ly acted like it. The applause was
first gentle, then it swelled with
each separate appearance until it be-
came an outburst of demonstration
all over tho tent. Nine. Lensky has
many artistic qualities to be record
ed to her credit. To start with she
has a vocal organ of exceptional
tone beauty. She has true musical in
stincts, and upon foundation like
this she has become an artist in the
musical world. She has no eccen-
tricities. There are no breaks, and
the sustaining power and purity of
her work is really marvellous The
program consisted of numbers suit
ably arranged to bring, out the many

Artists Day.

Evidently there has been no de-
cline in the real Chautauqua spirit
in Union City and community, judg-
ing from the reception accorded the
Great Lakes String Quartette and
Nine. Lenska last Monday. The rain
Monday morning brought change
in location for the afternoon per-
Torrance, which was held at the
Methodist Church. The general
plans and arrangements, however,
were in nowise disadvantageous. The
church was packed and the music

fuse to sanction that covenant the
| United States would make the most
stupenduous blunder and We would
sink to the levels of contempt.
The resources of the United States
are valued at $240, 900, 100000. We
have the smallest national debt OF
any of the leading nations. But our
greatness is not in our wealth; it is
not in our resources. The United
States is the greatest of all the ma
lions of the earth because of its
idealism, it's altruism. 1t is great be-
cause the competition of hate does
not exist. 1t is great because it is
loyal to its ideals.
Mr.. Kline's defense of the League
of Nations covenant found very
receptive audience. He stated that
Congress could not object on the
ground that it's right to declare war
had been altered or abridged. The
Hague conference pact of thirty ma
lions included among its provisions
that before any of these nations
could declare war one year in which
arbitration is considered should
have elapsed. This was Bryan's
peace movement and it was readily
accepted by Congress. Therefore
the League of Nations covenant
which defers the right to declare
war for a period of only three
months. could not be Objectionable.
Not only so but before war can be
declared the vote of the assembly
must be unanimous. If the delegate
from the United States dissents the
United States cannot be forced to en-
ter war. But should he agree to war
then the right to declare war is
still vested in Congress. Mr.. Kline
then took up the objection urged
against the covenant because it is
alleged that it destroyed the Monroe
doctrine. The different presidents
had interpreted the Monroe doctrine
until it had become sort of vague
proposition, but the covenant does
not, so the speaker proceeded to
prove, place any limitations on the
principles Monroe promulgated. On
the other hand these principles are
in the fact that the
covenant contemplated no more
wars of conquest and no political
colonies from Europe in the West
ern Hemisphere.
Mr.. Kline recalled the fact that |
the constitution of the United States
was bitterly assailed by statesmen
and brilliant mon. That document !
was declared the greatest of all ex-
listing at the time and up to the
present day. And so we have to adj
nit that there are brilliant men to-
day assailing the covenant of the
League of Nations, but they cannot
and should not prevail if our coun-
try is to maintain its supremacy and
continue to grow.
Mr.. Kline closed in a ctorm of ap-
plause.

For Sheriff,
Very Plausible.

| object to the statement made by
Chancellor Newman, in his opinion in
regard to the woman's suffrage act,
that no person has the inherent right
to vote, but that this right is granted
The reference to the technical error OF
separate ballot boxes and to the proba-
BILE lack OF legislative authority for the
extension OF franchise is plausible. bu
the exceedingly arrogant assumption
that universal suffrage is not firmly
rooted, grounded and guaranteed under
the constitution, that it is privilege to
be extended or withdrawn at the whim
or pleasure OF set of political doctors or
gangsters, is wholly gratuitous and I'M
solicited. The point of order is merely
technical The form of government is
fortunately one 10 which the people
create the state and federal constitutions,
and they are the custodians OF the bal
lot, which has been fixed and establish
ed. Then, waving formality, the truth
remains that the right to vote belongs
to the people and that right is inherent
under the constitution of the United
States.
Granting for argument that, under
the constitution, the people do not in
herit the right of suffrage, who has the
right to grant or forbid that privilege !?
Certainly, no court or assembly which
cannot alter or abolish the constitution.
This must be done by constitutional
majority, and that majority is directly
or indirectly indicated by the voice of
the people. In this the question of
state sovereignty holds good, and that
sovereignty comes from the people to
the state assemblies. The people there
fore inherit universal suffrage. They
fought for it at Concord, Lexington and
Bunker Hill and they are entitled to it.
Again, object to that overcoming
custom among people in office to COM
ment upon or to judge of what political
or religious liberties the people may en-
Joy. This kind of thing might be ever
SO proper and legitimate with Prussian
or Turkish states, but not in country
like ours. The man clothed with lit
tie official authority too often forgets
the people who elected him. He first
forgets the democracy Of Jesus Christ,
and then he forgets, conveniently and
selfshly so, that he is one of the people.
He likes to think of himself as man
OF authority to confer happiness and to
control the peaceful pursuits Of man
kind. Power has been conferred upon
him by the people to protect society in
the enjoyment of peace and happiness,
but not to grant, destroy or limit these
privileges.
All human law ends with the people
and sovereignty is inherent. Self ap-
pointed rulers may prevail for time.

the loyalty of the French and Ger
mans to their brothers in arms.
A German soldier who was dy-
ing from loss of blood, in an Amer
lean hospital, could be saved if only
some one would give him some fresh
blood. There were three hundred
German prisoners nearby. Twice
an appeal was made to these men,
but not one responded, and their
comrade died from the loss of blood,
while French and Americans daily
gave their own blood to their COM
rades, gladly.
Miss Billiard made a particularly
interesting point in regard to the
wonderful help of the local Red
Cross chapters in winning the war
She related how the admiration of
some French surgeons was called
forth at the timely aid of an emer-
gency kit just when it was most
needed. The surgeons compliment
ed Miss Billiard and the American
Red Cross in the two expressive,
terse words, American Efficiency"
This efficiency would not have been
possible without the earnest work
of the Red Cross chapters every
where in the United States.
In the close of her address Miss
Billiard impressed upon the people
the need of a course in home nursing
for every community. Each com
munity should have it's community
nurse. In this manner So many dis
eases might be prevented and so
much unnecessary i'll health might
be prevented.
