WILSON THE CONQUERER.

woodrow wilson mas conquered
the world with an ideal. The masses
are with him and statesmen are al
ready jumping over each other to de-
clare how strongly they favor Lea
que of Nations. 1t was not always so.
Europe the American Tories, know
ing well his purpore as he knew
theirs, raised repeated objections to
his violation of precedent in leaving
the country. A goodly number of
honest but credulous people welded
to the dead past, chimed in with this
spurious opposition, not knowing at
the time of the great crisis the world
was facing. Most of these have since
seen the light and are grateful that
Mr.. Wilson is near the theater of
action
On the other side of the Atlantic
leading statesmen appeared skept1-
cal and assumed a luke-warm atti-
tude towards the formation of a Lea
que of Nations. One of them had the
boldness to declare for a treaty Of
peace based on the old balance OF
Power" idea. Objections were raised
such as: England would never sur
render her mastery of the seas"
France would not agree to the appli-
cation of the principle of self-deter-
mination to Alsace-Lorraine," and
Italy and the new Jugo Slav re-
public could not be reconciled as to
the northern boundary of Italy,"
These have all since faded away.
Mr.. Wilson's speeches to the people
of England, France and Italy have
cinched the League of Nations. It's
organization is coming with the
treaty of peace, and woe be unto the
statesman in any country who would
dare to place an obstacle in its way.
Yesterdays dream of Woodrow
Wilson is today's possibility and to-
morrow's realization Again we say:
Thank God for Woodrow Wilson.

C|vICS and POLITICS
FATHER OF SOCIALISM,

FATHER OF SOCIALISM,
Question: Who was the first advo-
cate Of Socialism?
Answer: It is said that Heraclitus
is the founder Of Socialism,. He was
born in 535 B. c. and died ATS B. c.
His modern disciple was Ferdinand
Lassalle, German writer, who
founded the German Social Democ-
racy, in the middle of the Nineteenth
century. He was the author Of a
large work in two volumes on Hera-
clitus emphasizing THE latter's mater
:ialisn1, made it the basis Of that view
Of the world and of society which

Heracliteanism in politics and. econ

sense. Heraclitus may be said to be the
father of Socialism and to be very
much alive among us today.

MILLING TRUST PROFITEERs

The Non-Partisan league claims the
millers of Minnesota doubled the price
of bran and middlings Immediately
after the armistice was signed. The
day before the federal regulation was
lifted bran sold for $2773 and mid
dlings sold for s29.73 When the
regulation was removed the price of
bran shot to Sal ton, with mid
dlings selling at $46. A few days later
the price of bran went to $43 a ton
at the mill. and to actual users $50 a.
ton. ..
/ The farmers in Minnesota are up
in the air on this bit of mad profiteer-
ing, particularly because the price of
wheat they sell is still regulated by
the government

1T WAS SHABBY TREATMENT.

The Duluth-to-the-Sea gathering
last week was a corker in every re-
spect but one. The committee having
the affair in charge invited the presi-
dent OF the Superior Commercial club
to the dinner and notified him that he
would be asked to speak. He sat dur
ing the speaking, and what must have
| been his humiliation when the meeting
adjourned without calling on him {?
The Herald made matters worse by
publishing the undelivered speech. with
mild apology for the oversight, when
it should have roundly scored those
responsible.
There is all together too much civic
sef1shness in these movements having
for their purpose the general benefit
of the head Of the lakes. Anything
that will help Duluth will help Supe-
| rior and vici versa. A deep water
way to the Atlantic ocean will not be

A JUST TONNAGE TAX SCHEME,
! The Labor World is the recipient of
many fine compliments for its stand
on tonnage tax law, which If passed
would give blessings to the people OF
! Minnesota for all time when only
empty holes remain in the great iron
country north of us.
! We proposed that when a tonnage
tax is levied the money received
therefrom should never be spent, but
should be invested in city, county and
other public bonds, and the interest
derived from this investment should
be used to run the state forever, and
particularly to reclaim the waste
lands in the north country Come or
with your criticism to this kind OF
a tax.

SCATTERED NEWS AND COMMENT
RO1SHEvIsNI IN CHICAGO.

BOLSHEVISM IN CHICAGO.
The American Bolsheviki have the
habit Of using every labor misfortune
to advance their propaganda. Earnest
trade unionists, with practical ideas,
called a convention in Chicago to de-
wise plans to lawfully get innocent
Tom Mooney out Of prison. The Boil
sheviki were on the job bright and
early. They tried to run the conven-
ton, but were beaten two to one.
They haven't said much about poor
Tom MONEYS plight. They are prin-
cipally interested in starting "revo-
luton" in this country. Well let them
start one. We know of no better way
of satisfying them, and incidentally to
quiet them. =
KEEPING BURNQUIST IN BAD.
Some persons in Governor Burn
quist's confidence seem to delight in
keeping him in bad with organized
labor. In his recent address to the
legislature the governor dug into the
graveyard Of discarded legislation and
resurrected the anti-union employers
pet scheme for the incorporation Of
~ COO uUlO11S ~ COlHpcl 10 Keep
agreements.
Will the governor kindly tell us
when and where a trade union, even
organized as it is today, ever violated
it's agreement with a single employer
Incorporation does not make men keep
their agreements. If it did the Twin
City Rapid Transit company would
have escaped a lot OF unpleasantness
last year. Has Governor Burnquist
read this provision Of the federal law:
THE labor power of an individual
shall not be regarded as an article of
commerce or trade" Better study up,
Governor.

Charles Edward Russell and Will

their way to Europe to represent the
United States pro-war Socialists in

Socialists to stand pat and they de-
scribe the democratic Socialists Of all

all have heard repeated so many times
from the lips Of our precious children,
Suffer little children to come unto
Me, and forbid them not, for Of such

cases one can remember when their
own loved darling lisped these words,
and thus for this reason they are held
In tender memory. There had been a
discussion. between the disciples as to

which they were anticipating. About
this time, also came mothers with their
children for the blessing and notice of
the Master. It was then the misguid-
ed hearts of the disciples which prompt
ed them to issue the order that the lit
tie ones would annoy Him. This was
the occasion for the great words which
] have just given. Jesus took one Of
the midst said that any who received
child in His name, would be receiving
Him. He also said that believers on
His gospel must come with the faith of
the trusting child, and be as such in
His kingdom. 1t was a great day for
the children. Jesus went further and
said that they were precious in His
sight, and that any one who led little

depth Of the sea. That. is a pretty
strong way, to put the case, but it puts
up a fearful responsibility on any who
with intent debauch the morals and
the life Of a boy or girl, who but for
this bad influence, would have been
pure and good. XIV
How pSoud can every christian be Of
his religion in view of the care Of the
little ones, which it teaches. It is only
where the bible is lived up to, that the
babes are held of any repute. In China
the country is dotted with places where
1t Is the custom to throw the babes to
die. In India the girls are held in no
esteem and with the system Of Child
widows" the lives of millions Of these
are made too horrible to here tell about.
All glory to the Blessed Jesus for His
words as to the little ones.
II there is anything which one can
have little patience with, it is narrow
ness in religion. in social circles, and in.
business relations. In our lesson of to-
day Jesus proclaims a thought which
makes every christian proud and to
glory in being follower Of the bible
religion. 1t appears that one Of the
disciples reported that he had found
one casting out devils in the name of
Jesus; and that the disciple had forbid
the man; because "he followeth not with
US. Jesus replied, Forbid him not;
for he that is not against us is for u.s."
It 10 all too common for religious bodies
and religious people to feel that with
them alone is the true faith and that
they are specially in the right in their
methods of worship and church policy.
There il the feeling to forbid others
from naming the name Of Jesus and
