act with them.

worthy man, a conscientious man. But
he is inexperienced, he cannot be in
touch with the situation as is the man
who has been combating it from its
inception To say nothing Of the in
justice to the incumbent, it would be
most injudicious to make change in
the Sheriff's Office at this time.
We are inclined to believe that Gov.
Cats has been poorly advised. If he
will go to any or all of the communi-
ties of this county and ask for an ex-.
preston from the best citizenship of
the community he will find the people
are with the present Sheriff
The Governor has promised an au-
dience this afternoon to a representa-
tive committee of citizens They will
ask him not to do what they consider
a most unjust thing to the Sheriff and
a most unwise thing for the public
welfare. They come in a most kindly
and courteous spirit as representa-
tives of q gathering of some two
thousand persons-a gathering that
might have been double that number
had there been a few hours longer
notice.
1t is to be hoped the Governor will
give due attention to the plea of
these gentlemen. 1t is unfortunate
that he has already stated in advance
that what they have to say to him
will do no good-that "his mind is
made up leaving the inference that
the desires of the great bulk of the
best citizenship have no weight with
him.

Dearborn independently

If, in August, 1914, Germany had
submitted her differences with France
and Russia to a board of arbitration,
she would hvae found nothing to arbi-
trate. q
If she had waited for findings of o
board of arbitration before going to
! war there would have been no war.
Nations will have plenty of time to
cool off before going to war If the
Covenant of the League of Nations is
adopted.
In that document the members of
the League bind themselves to sub
NIT disputes to arbitration or to the
council and they agree "in no case to
resort to war until three months after
the award of the arbitrators on the
report of the council"
The council is given six months in
which to make it's report after the
facts have been submitted to it by the
nations in dispute. The nations in
dispute can do as. they like, submit
their differences either to the council
or to arbitrators of their own choos-
ing.
The binding part Of the agreement
is not to make war on the other ma
ton if that nation complies with the
findings of the council or arbitrators,
and in no case to make war inside of
three months from the time the find
ngs are reported.
If cause is just it will not lose any
of its virture in three months time.

WOULD GO GLIMMERlNG

A Nebraska court has decided that
the voters of Nebraska have the right
to vote to reject or approve the action
of the state legislature in ratifying
the federal prohibition amendment,
and until vote is taken, it cannot be
said that the legislature has ratified
the amendment. If that decision by
lower court is sustained by the SUI
preme court Of Nebraska, 1t will ma.
terially alter the position of the
eighteenth amendment.
But Nebraska is only one Of about
fourteen states that have the refer.
endum clause in their constitutions
and there is very strenuous effort
being made to call elections in all OF
these states to give the people an
opportunity to pass upon the ratifica
tions. If Nebraska has not lawfully
ratified the amendment, it Is quite
likely that other states have also act
ed without waiting to hear from the
people in referendum.
If, by any change, these fourteen
states should reverse the actions OF
their legislature, the eighteenth
amendment would go glimmering.-

League of Nations Prevents Countries
From DaShing Headlong Into War

In three months time those who
frequently make war, but who do not
do the fighting, will have time to hear
from those who usually do not vote
slaughter but get slaughtered.
There is no difference that can
arise which cannot be adjusted II both
sides are inclined to be fair. And the
very purpose of the League of Ma
lions is to prevent war by enforcing
fairness.
England had reason for going to
war because Germany, once in the
war, broke her agreement as to Bel
GUM. America had reason for going
to war because Germany, once in the
war and in desperate straits, violated
the rules of the sea. Germany never
thought England would come in,
much less America. Had she realized
how many nations would be pitted
against her before the finish there
would have been no beginning.
How much more careful will ma
ton be, then, about going to war il
declaring war means offense to 45
other nations, and how much less
likely is nation to declare war If
from six to nine months time is
taken to think it over?
The League of Nations plan con-
templates absolute justice, gives a
nation the right eventually to declare
war if it's people become convinced
they have just cause, but provides
that they shall think it over and
make sure they are right before go
ing ahead.

SHERIFF LoGAN'S REMOVAL

The removal of Sheriff John Logan
from his Office by Governor Cats is
disapproved, in our opinion, by seven
ty-ive per cent. of the people of Polk
county. There is absolutely no rea-
son, so far as the unprejudiced OBJ
server can see, for the Governors &C
ton. 1t cannot help matters; it may
make them infinitely worse.
If the Governor is playing politics,
it is poor politics, indeed, for the
friends of John Logan will resent his
removal to man, and they will re-
member those who are responsible
for it. And John Logan has been the
most popular official in this State, and
is today more popular than he ever
was.
If he is removed, and his removal
becomes effective, the State of Flori-
da will have his salary to pay as sure
as the next Legislature convenes.
Governor Cats hasty and ill-con-
sidered removal of public officials who
were re-instated by the last legisla-
ture has already cost the State many
thousands of dollars. In no instance
was there less cause for removal than
in the case of Sheriff Logan His re-
instatement by the Legislature is GER
tain.
II John Logan should be ousted and
takes his case to the people of Polk
county, we predict his election by the
largest majority even given candi-
date in the county, regardless of who
may run against, him.
He has been the most popular Sher-
1T the county has ever had. For
years he has administered his office
with the highest degree of efficiency.
He has practically stamped out all
the common and minor forms of
crime in this county.
Recently most unusual and trying
situation has confronted him. He
has met it with ability, courage, and
impartiality. We do not believe
there is a man in the State who could
have handled it better.
He has not had the backing he
should have received. He has been
harassed by unjust criticism, and op.
position to his efforts to enforce law
and order has been openly encour.
aged. The Governor himself has
been instrumental in widening the
breach which the Sheriff has been try.
ing to close.
Nevertheless, the Sheriff has done
well with the most delicate situation
that has developed. There have been
some disorders, but no human agency
could have prevented them. There
are crimes that no official precaution
could provide against; and those that
have shocked this county of late are
of that nature.
What reason is there to believe
that a new and untried man in the
Sheriff's office can cone with condi.
lions better?
We do not know Mr. Langford, Mr..
Logan's proposed successor We as.
