What America needs is unity

cordant unities. The former
means irresistible national
strength; the latter stands fol
perpetuated decrepitude.
If we are to be united we
must get to know each other.
We must get together-!iter-

crease the means of geogra-

The railroads can't do every
thing-a n d they certainly
don't. The whole country
should be a network of well
kept highways.
Nearly every man who
draws union wages regularly
and has an average acquain-
lance with machinery can af-
ford to buy and maintain a low
or medium priced automobile.
There are few farmers who
can't. The per capita proper
ton of cars to population is
growing so fast that problems
of locomotion are rapidly solv-
ing themselves. Already we
find governors of adjoining
states cooperating to promote
road building schemes.
No project is more whole

sounder political judgment.
When our 10O,0O0,O00 popu-
lation ceases to be a motley
group of disjointed common
wealths, each commonwealth

lars and patois, then. and not
till then, will we present to the

THE ABSTRACT AND
THE CONCRETE

A fairly harmless form of
diversion consists of arguing
the question who won the
war;" Perhaps even we in
Lancaster can hardly claim i'm
munity from the epidemic. On
our streets and in our corner
stores we are liable TO see ex-
hibitions of this popular form
of relaxation.
When Swedes and Scotch
men get together-Poles and
ltalians-the question is likely
10 be debated with lively We
hemence. In northern France
at the close of 1918 certain
acrimonies were inflamed al
most TO the point of open hos
tility between Americans and
Observation-Disclosures an d
NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS. and
Frenchmen. The partisans
shows a strange similarity in
one particular. Without en-
ception they always claimed
that they alone were the fair
haired boys. Among the sober
minded of all nationalities the
absurdity of this pickering was
recognized: but there was
plenty of il.
But no japanese ever claims
that his country won the war.
He never points TO his country's
army, or navy, or munition
shops as factors indispensable
TO allied victory.
The japanese don't even

think that they won the war
They know for a fact that they
didn't. And this fact appar.
emily worries them as rain wor-
ries ducks.
If there is anything in the
world that ranks at zero in i'm.
portance to the Japanese it is
the question Of credit for win
ming the war. We can have it
all, if we want it. They don't.
What do we get out of IT,"
is all they ask. They don't
want the glory: they want the
gravy-at least, they did until
they got it.
We Americans in Lancaster
and elsewhere should not blind
ourselves to facts. Nations of
the world are no more interest
ed in the veal of humanity
than they were five years ago.
They are interested in their
own prosperity-and, perhaps.
ACKNOWLEDGEMENT.
Americas altrustic attitude

same. seeing that the world is

man gargling machine oil.
The mildness of our immi.
grafton laws has cursed us with
an inundation of undesirables
who attribute their own con-
tinued failures to political con-
ditions in the land of their
birth. If conditions at home
were wrong, why did they not
put them right? If their kings
were tyrannical, why did they
not deposc them, or limit their
authority?
The sturdy French and Eng
lish do not come fleeing to this
country to escape from despotic
government at home. They
had backbone enough to elimi-
nate defective features in their
constitutions without wrecking
economic structures and pre-
cipitating universal poverty.
Stricter immigration laws are
needed to exclude the element
that accomplished nothing re-
formative in Europe and Great
es nothing progressive here.

STEEL STRIKE STANTON RE-
MAINS UNCHANGED.

PTTTSBURG, Oct. 2.-The steel
strike situation in the Pittsburg
district remained virtually unchang-
ed Labor leaders advanced
the claim that the unions offensive
to extend the strike, launched Mon
day, had met with success, while
representatives of the employers de-
MED this emphatically, and said that
their efforts to operate additional
plants Monday had been marked by
the return of many men to their
places in the mills.
The offensive by the employers
will be- continued and for the
remainder of the week, according to
their representatives and the opinion
is freely expressed that before next
Sunday plants which were forced to
shut down because of the strike will
be operating on full time.
Strike leaders, countering this
offensive, say they will keep a large
force of union organizers in the field
every day, and will exert every eff
fort to make the walkout more effect
i've by bringing additional workers
into the union.

OMAHA AFFAIR WORST IN HIS
TORY OF STATE.

OMAHA, NEB., Oct. with
800 troops from Forts Omaha and
Crook, Neb., and Camp Dodge, Iowa,
on riot duty, Omaha officials
are confident that there would
be no further outbreak of the
race rioting which Sunday resulted
in the death of two persons, injuries
to several others, an attempt to
lynch Mayor E p. Smith and partial
destruction by fire of the county
court house.
The troops have machine guns
ready to put into use if necessary.
The mob organized early Sunday
with the intention of demanding Will
liam Brown, a negro, who was in the
county jail on charge of attacking
white girl on the outskirts of the
city.
Mayor Smith was at the court
house and went down to the crowd
to appeal to law and order and some
one shout "He's upholding the negro,
lynch him." and a handy rope was
thrown about his neck. He was
dragged two blocks by the crazed
mob before he was rescued by the
police.
In an unconscious condition he
was removed to hospital, where he
regained consciousness late Monday
The Mayor was unable to give a
coherent story of the mob's attack
upon him He had been on the roof
of the courthouse and had come
down to ask the mob to obey the law
when he was seized. The fire that
was started in the courthouse left
that structure a mass Of ruins. The
property was valued at 81 100000.
The damage to records could not
be estimated Monday, but it is be-
lieved a number have been Destroy
ed beyond reclamation. Statistics
vital to county affairs are believed
to have been destroyed. =
The mob gained entrance to the
burning building pushed past Sheriff
Clark and his Deputies and forced
their way into the cell corridor. Here
it was that the negro was turned
over to them.
Throwing rope around his neck
these men, numbering about so,
dragged him to the ground floor,
down sitting stairways and through
binding smoke to the street. When
they appeared at the Harvey Street
entrance to the courthouse they were
greeted by bowling mob of thou
sands. ,-i
Brown practically was dead be-
fore his form was strung to the light
pole. Two bullets were fired into
his body as he was dragged through
the crowd. He never was heard to
utter a word, and he did not have
an opportunity to speak before be-
