Chicago, Dec. 10.--Miss Annie Ro-

attorney announced, that she had
knowledge of frauds practicel upon
the courts of New York City and a
Justification of records. Her arrest
was caused by John /. Cotter, secre-
tary to the chief justice of the court
of special sessions in New York, who
said District Attorney Swami pos
sessed much information concerning
conspiracy between court clerks and
bondsmen in New York.
According to information disclosed
by MIR. Cotter to Assistant States At
torney Lowery, a court clerk and o
bondsman have been involved and
two shoplifters, one of them arrested
in$Denver, are held in New York in
connection with the alleged con-
spiracy.
According to Mr.. Lowery, the young
woman admitted that she paid a New
York bondsman $500 to provide bail
for her, and that he assured her her
presence in court would not be nee
essary, and that she left the city the
day before the case was set. 1t is
charged in connection with her case
that false entry was made on the
court records showing her case dis

part of Germans and Austrians that
the war was forced upon them. They
thought they saw their opportunity TO
subiugate Europe and dominate the
rest OF the world, and they took it.
In a dispatch published in London
and cabled to the Journal the Ber-
lin correspondent of the London Daily
Telegraph tells how Noske has crushed
opposition among his own people.
When one reads how Germans deal
with Germans, he can understand
something of how Germans dealt With
Belgians. French people. Poles, Ru-
manians and Serbians.
But, however much We may APP
prove the crushing defeat that has
come TO German and Austrian ambi-
lions, and however much the bitter
lessons being learned by both coun-
tries We're necessary, we know today
that both Germany and Austria are in
despair-particularIy Austria.
1t is possible that a period of rule
by the allies will do much toward
changing the psychology of the Ger
man people and eventually will prove
their salvation from themselves.

Famous Old Recipe
for Cough Syrup
Easily and cheaply made at home,
but 1t beats them all for
quick results.

Thousands OF housewives have found
that they can save two-thirds OF the
money usually spent for cough prepare
tions, by using the well-known old recipe
for making cough syrup at home. 1t
is simple and cheap but it has no equal
for prompt results. 1t takes right hold
of a cough and gives immediate relief,
usually stopping an ordinary cough IN
"a hours or less.
Get 90 ounces of Pinex from any
druggist, pour ii into pint bottle and
add plain granulated sugar syrup to
make a full pint. If you prefer, use
clarified molasses, honey, or corn syrup,
instead CT sugar syrup. Either way, 1t
tastes good, keeps perfectly, and Lasts
a family a long time.
It's truly astonishing how quickly Il
acts, penetrating through every air

RELIEF WORK IN
SERBIA PAINFUL
SMALL, IS REPORT
tsr sosa,so 1ouHAAl srte'At teAssp w'sH'

New YORK, Dec. 10 (by the ,Asso-
eiated Press Allan NJ. Gale, of the
Serbian Relief committee. commenting
on a recent dispatch from Belgrade,
stating that Serbia was on her feet
again, having recovered from the i'm
mediate effects of the war said:
The Serbian Relief committee Of
America and all who are giving their
lives and strength to the work, know
that great as the results accomplished
appear in the aggregate, they are in
comparison to the need, pitifully small.
Much. is made of the fact that this
years harvest gives the new kingdom
q surplus in cereals above its needs,
that the food situation is under cop-
troll and that actual starvation no
longer menaces the people, But these
facts have been long known by the
relief agencies and all interested in
Serbia, and have been very widely
published by them. And it should be
equally we'll known that the harvest
includes the crops of Bosnia and Her.
zcgovina, which, as Austrian territory
during the war, suffered very little
real damage.
There will perhaps he no genuine
starvation in Serbia through the win
ter, though the food supply, neither
quality nor quantity is suitable or
sufficient for the restoration of health
and strength of young children. one
slight indication of this is to be seen
in he recent shipment by Mr.. HooV-
er's administration of relief of four
large cargoes Of powdered milk for
use in central and southeastern Eu-
rope, including Serbia.
In Jugo-Slavia there are 100000
fatherless children of whom 10000
are absolutely destitute. Among them
tuberculosis, eye and skin disease are
rife. OF these children, up to July,
less than 1000 had been provided for,
largely because Of the tremendous diff
ficulues attending the work in an
utterly disorgani2ed community The
government at Belgrade and the great
American and English relief organiza-
tons are now working in thorough
harmony in their efforts to carry
these children safely through the win
ter. They can only succeed II there
is no Stacking of effort on the part of
the American and British publics."

said it should be the intention of all
railroads to put a Y. NJ. c. A. at every
division point
Mr. Fox said it was pointed out at
the convention that the American
nation was uneducated in practical
way, that one of the great weaknesses
of the educational system was that
real American citizenship has not
been taught as much Z t should be.
1t is the purpose of the Y. NJ C. A.
to encourage the growth of better
citizenship classes.
According TO Mr.. Fox it was en-
phasized at the convention that the
Y. NJ c. a. was a Christian associa-
ton and was founded on Christian
principles and that this should be
first and foremost in all activities. 1t
was the firm belief of a great many
of the delegates a. the convention
that the only solution of the great in
dustrial problems that confront the
nation at the present time, would be
the applying of Christian principles.

OUR REPUBLICAN DEMOCRACY.

Plato devotes one Of the saddest
cbapters of his Republic to showing
that the life Of any democracy is short,
and soon passes into tyranny. the
only democracy that Plato knew was
diract-iust q little more direct than
some of our direct primary methods
and his statement is sadly true Of this
form of government.
Athens found it impossible to pro
tect her constitution from the capFices
of the people, so ready to follow the
demagosues. In his Laws Plato
says that a democracy must be very
small. at most not more than five
thousand citizens. lie could not I'M
agjne more than that number meeting
together in public assembly.
That modern democracy has be
come the government of more than
one hundred million people. and has
eypanded over a vast continent, is due
to the scheme of representative gov
eminent, which forms the basic prin-
ciple of representation in the constl-
tuition. And this principle is the heart
of that immortal document
In these days many chafe under the
slow-moying character OF our democ-
racy. II takes time to make laws and
lime to execute them, but this very
delay is one safeguard Of democracy
which those appreciate who bring to
the problem the historic view.
If laws are to stand they must be
formulated by trained legislators, and
without haste. The initiative and
referendum bring with them the dan
ger Of caprice and whim, which have
been tine ruin of all direct democra-
cies.
The republican. party representa-
tives net in Washington yesterday
and named the city and the time for
holding the partys national conyen-
ton, which will be composed OF rep
resentatives Of the party in the vari-
GUS states and congressional districts
The democratic party representatives
viii hold a similar conference for q
like purpose. The same principle viii
extend to all the federal and state cleo
tons. Thus we shall secure our gov
ernment-through representation.
The federal constitution. in giving
written form to this principle Of rep
resentation. worked out the scheme Of
republican democracy. This princi-
pie must remain unchanged, however
much the surface forms and applca-
lions may alter. It makes our con-
sutuuon the covenant of permanent
democracy and individual liberty.
Since the adoption of the constitution
Dc has been much amended, and has
been stretched n judicial decisions and
interpretations to cover modern needs,
but its underlying principles remain
unchanged and interchangeable.
Just now the principles of our CON
sti,ution are being attacked bitterly.
Ii IS called a capitalistic document, be-
cause it provides Tor majority rule and
for control through law rather than
control through the passing whims OF
men.
We have organizations in this coun-
try whose very principles are antag-
onisuc to constituted authority and tc
rule by the will of the majority Fol
its owa good, such organizations mus
be crushed out ruthlessly.
