WHAT TIE FLAG MEANS

The essence Of the spirit 81. socialism in thsss days.
whether expressed In the Determinations ofsthe Russian
Bolsheviki or in the divers forms et actviy ~ which IT.
progress in the United States Is marked. Is contempt for
orderly government. and contempt for those national
emblems by means Of which regard for orderly govern
ment Is expressed. To call Old Glory . dirty rag is but
the ordinary and usual expression Of the typical Socialist.
and in like manner there is an irreconcialiableS antaEon-
between Socialism and the domestic virtues
As an example in contrasta think OF the socialistic
attitude toward the flag Of our nation and this charactsr-
ization Of the nag by william Mckinley:
rs it any wonder that the old soldier loves the old nag
under whose folds he fought and for which his comrades
shed 70 much blood? He loves it for what 1t IS and for
what 1t representa-. It embodies the purpose and history
of the government itself. It records the achievements OF
its defenders upon land and sea-. It heralds the heroism
and sacrifices Of our revolutionary fathers who planted
free government on this continent and dedicated it to
liberty forever. 1t attests the struggles Of our army and
the valor Of our citizens in all the wars Of the republic.
1t has been sanctihed by the blood Of our best and brav-
martyrdom Of Lincoln. It has been bathed in the tears
of sorrowing people. 1t has been elorihed in the hearts
of a freedom-loving people. not only at home but in
every part Of the world. Our flag expresses more than
any other flag: it means more than any other emblem.
1t expresses the will Of a free people. proclains that they
ereign but themselves. 1t never was assaulted that thous-
ands did not rise up to smite the assailant. Glorious old
banner!" '

A%NTAGONISTIC INTERESTS

In a. letter just received, opposing the league Of ma
tons, there is raised the familiar objection that the United
States will be merely one Of nine nations represented on
tho. executive council. and that the other eight will have
"a common interest against us in the Observation-Disclosures
Of the Panama canal. and in a number of other matters.
including the principles involved in our Monroe doctrine"
It would be interesting to have pointed out just what
some of these common interests are who are to bind
together the other eight nations which are to be rep
resented on the executive council, or any five Of them.
in such a manner as to hold them together and commit
them to a policy of international injustice. and to run
the risk, through that course Of injustice. of again
plunging themselves and the rest of the world into war.
For our edification there have been drawn many
narrowing pictures of Great Britain taking the lead in
destroying the Monroe doctrine and throwing the western
hemisphere open to European exploitation. Have those
VINO give such free rein to their imagination forgotten
the history Of the Monroe doctrine?
It has been stated that the inspiration foA the
historic declaration of President Monroe came from the
British cabinet. This has been questioned. But it is
a fact familiar to every reader of history txat the
definite announcement that the United States would re-
sist. by force if necessary, aggression by the nations of
the old world upon the new was welcomed with en-
thusiasm by the British government. The reason is well
understood. Great Britain had passed through some
strenuous experiences in which all her power was needed
to prevent her empire from being shattered to pieces.
She was particularly vulnerable to attack from the
Americas, first because Of her large possessions in North
America, and second because large holdings in North
or South America by a strong hostile power would have
menaced her trade routes and the integrity Of her en-
pire throughout the world. The policy which was dis
tinctly in accord with the interests and the sentiments OF
Americans was equally in accord with the interests of
Great Britain, and the two nations have stood together
and presented to the entire world an unbroken front in
support of the American policy enunciated by Monroe.
Great Britain has found that policy useful to her for a
century. 1t is not likely that she will take the extremely
hazardous course Of abandoning, now, that which has
served, and which still continues to serve, her interests
so we'll. ~
Britains interests are equally identical with ours
in relation to the Panama canal. For many years the
common. interests of the two nations were expressed in
treaties, and the Panama canal was actually built by the
United States, and this nation was permitted to retain
control Of it, in pursuance of an amicable understand'n g
with Great Britain.

THE LIE DIRECT

The denial from the White House Of the accuracy
OF the reports relating to the presidents comments on
the Irish situation has come with what appears to be
unnecessary heat. Moreover, when the facts are known
there appears to be no justification whatever for the
charge that the published report is a deliberate false
hood. On the contrary, the report appears to be sub
stantially correct. 1t is not probable that the presidents
exact language was given. but according to the testimony
Of Senator John Sharp Williams, which is accepted as
correct by Senator Hitchcock, both Of whom were at
the White House meeting, the president did refer to the
Irish question in a general way as a domestic question
with which the league Of nations would not be concerned.
That being the case, the statement by Mr.. Tumulty that
the published report Of the conversation was a DELHI
crate falsehood was extremely far-fetched and utterly
lnjustifiable. The case seems to be one in which the
president expressed himself injudiciously and is now
anxious to avoid the consequence of his own statement,
AS a matter Of fact, the president might better have
Jet the matter go as it was first reported. The statement
that the Irish question was one of a domestic nature ana
the inference that it was beyond the jurisdiction of the
league Of nations are both correct. 1t may have been
injudicious for Mr.. Wilson to refer to these facts when
he did, but having stated his views he might better have
let it go at that Z.

THAT NEWSPAPER BILL !
The neHspar

Ine newspaper bill proposed and supported by the
league managers, and which received the support OF
league members of the legislature, has, in a measure,
been regarded as a Joke by a good many people. There
has been a sort Of assumption that the bill represented
a scrap between rival classes Of newspaper publishers,
with which the general public was in no way concerned.
There has been q disposition to say Go it old man: go
it bear: and I don't care which licks."
But. far from being a subject with which the general
has no concern. the newspaper bill embodies
dangerous and vicious tendencies which are the concern
Of every citizen.
In the first place. the purpose Of the bill is to use
the machinery Of the state government for the purpose
of rewarding private individuals for partisan political
work. 1t has been hoped and intended thot the passage
of this bill would result in the selection as ofhcial papers
only those publications which have been conducted in the
interest Of the league and in harmony with the wishes OF
its managers. And. in order to pay the owners of these
papers for their effort it is proposed that the selection OF
Official mediums for the publication Of Official informa-
ton shall be taken out Of the hands Of local individuals
and local bodies. and lodged in the hands Of persons who,
is supposed. may be depended, on to distribute the pub.
LEGATION favors where they will do the greatest good to
the organization.
Secondly, it is the purpose Of the bill to drive out of
business all publishers who are not supporters Of the
league. Doubtless all Of the larger newspapers in the
state can survive this attack that is made on them. The
u "SA6Ab u uS assault VIA y q AOlC Oy the STRUGGLING
weekly papers, whose circulation is necessarily limited,
whose advertising patronage is necessarily small, and to
which the little revenue derived from legal notices be-
comes a matter of real importance, as it often spans the
gap between profit and loss. The purpose. and the tend
ency Of any movement such as this is to bring to bear
or individuals who are DESTROYS Of conducting a legit-
innate business in a legitimate way Of their own, choosing
the full pressure Of the power Of the state government,
to lead them to espouse principles and policies which
in reality they do not approve. The purpose is to use
both reward and punishment to induce men to violate
their own principles and abandon their own beliefs.
A third purpose is to choke and smother all the
sources Of independent opinion. No press organized and
as is the Nonpartisan league press Of this state
can be impartial. independent or Trustworthy. It's utter
ances are all directly or indirectly dictated from league
headquarters. No editor Of a league newspaper is, or can
be. his own man. And the inevitable result of the pass
age Of any such legislation as this bill must be to render
more overbearing and more pictorial the control of a
little group of irresponsible men over the expression Of
opinion through the newspapers.

The French government is said to have decided that
any of the German ships awarded to France shall not be
SUNK but shall be used as a means Of augmenting the
French navy. notwithstanding some impressive author

not be good policy with reference to all the important
German ships.
