ExTRAvAeANcE AND TAXATION

st. Paul Pioneer Press: It is rare
proposition to be able to find any
thing to commend in the attitudes or
utterances of Senator Penrose, the
Ireactionary member from Pennsyl-
yania; and it is unfortunate for him
that his record is so far out OF favor
as to subtract from the value OF any
good thing that he might say When
he warned the senate OF the danger
of carrying taxation to the breaking
point and expressed the view that
the country was regarding national
expenditures as debauch of extraya
gance. he was nearer the truth than
will be believed by that large Ameri
can element which has been out of
patience with his general attitude in
the senate.
The only answer made to his
charges was of a partisan nature.
Senators of the opposing political
party found nothing more TO say than
THAT, if there has been extravagance
lin the outpouring of money and I'M
wisdom in the imposition of taxation,
Republicans as well as democrats
must take the responsibility, as
united support had been given all
measures involving both of the
charges.
This is neither excuse nor pallia-
ton. if Penrose is right in what he
says. 1t might be said that demo
Gratis are responsible for the record
of a congress they control as party;
that they might have prevented what
the republicans could not. But the
question is, what has been done, not
who did it. 1t is important, if the
reckless extravaganza is true and
the coming taxation onerous, that
such are the facts; it is less impor-
Itant who is responsible. unless the
fixing of the responsibility tends to-
ward a change in the direction of
remedy.
The Pioneer Press has no purpose
of aiding the republican party in
storing up political capital out of a
situation, if such II is, which calls
for businesslike handling. 1t is doubt
lful if 1t can get much out of it, in
the circumstances. That party, in
the next congress. will be judged by
what IT does in its control of ma
tional legislation, not by what share
lit may or may not have had in the
record of the sixty-fifth congress.

BERGER AND SOME OTHERS

Chicago Tribune: Victor Berger
and his associates have been sen
fenced to serve twenty years in the
penitentiary for violating the espion-
age act and for conspiring to obstruct
the United States in its war against
Germany.
We wish this point to be perfectly
emphasized in the minds of all Amer
leans. The defendants-Berger j..
Lewis Engdahl, William f. Kruse,
Adolph Germer. and Irving St. John
iTucker-were found guilty of break
ing the laws of the United States.
They were not in the remOtest sense
tried as to their political beliefs.
A great attempt has been made by
the defendants and their supporters
to obscure the issue in a fog of So
called political rights. Political free
dom has never at any point in the
contention of the government entered
into the prosecution.
1t is true that Berger and his CO.
defendants are members of the
socialist party; have been diligent
IN its affairs; Berger a congressman
elect on the socialist ticket. But it
cannot be alleged that their political
beliefs, except as insinuated by them
selves, have been PERMITTED the
slightest expression in the federal
court.
Two chief accusations were made
by the government. 1t was charged
that Berger and his colleagues openly
violated the espionage by expressing
contempt for the government at a
time when the sturdiest loyalty was
required of all Americans. 1t was
also charged that they conspired.
through devious agencies, to digcour-
age service in the United States army
and to incite rebellion against the
draft law. On both these counts,
and on no other, were they convicted.
The sentence of twenty years has
been meted on the conviction thus
obtained.
There has been no other issue.
Wherein, then, does it appear that
the political freedom of any of the
defendants has been abridged3
The government did not allege
| socialism as an offense. On the CON
trary, the ethics of the prosecution

hibited even the merest reference to
matters foreign to the evidence and
particularly as to the political
thought of those on trial Whatever
The daily Gate City and constitution-Democrat. (Keokuk, Iowa) 1916-1922, 1919-02-24

of socialist doctrine appeared in the
trial was introduced by the defense
and not by the prosecution. The
prosecution avoided it; the defense
welcomed it.
From this statement of facts only
one conclusion can be adduced: Ber-
ger and his fellows have sought to
justify their disloyalty to the United
States by raising the false issue OF
political rights. If this doctrine is
just it is possible to escape the PEN
atty of murder by like means.
Socialism cannot be urged as a
cloak for plain law violation. Sedi-
ton by a socialist is just as vicious
and as objectionable as Wy a repub-
lican or a democrat.
We have suggested before. and we
now repeat it, that it is strange to
behold men of obvious German origin
at the head and front of activities
offensive to the United States when
we were at war with Germany. Does
the public, believe for a moment that
these same men would have been
similarly obstructive had our war
been with England?
The charge was of giving comfort
/ to the enemy, and we know the
enemy was Germany. We do not
know that they would have sought
obstruction as against any other
nation; but we do know they COM
forted the empire of the kaiser. The
issue is far from socialism as such.

associates that they were victims of
"capitalistic conspiracy finds but

DR.. MARY WALKER.

The first woman whom many Americans ever
saw in male attire-trousers, frock coat and
high hat-has passed from her unconventional
career Dr. Mary Walker, with the weight of
years upon her, pioneer protagonist of the right
oil her sex to bifurcate their skirts, made her
exit from the stage just at the time when the
battle for whatever women wish to wear is prac-
tically won.
1t is within the facts to say that there was
little about DIR. Mary Walker that was winsome.
There was nothing artistic in her makeup, and
she would have passed mnoted in crowd as
q rather commonplace male of the lank-haired
reformer type. In fact this generation that
knew her by name listed her unique and
unelassifed freak; and the world had forgotten
that she ever lived until announcement came
on Saturday Of her death Unwomanly was
about the mildest word of condemnation ever
applied to her by the element in femininity

POISON DRAuGHT
KILLS JOHN DAVIS
Police Say Man Swallowed
Furniture Polish in
Saloon
ONLY MUTTERS
BEFORE DEATH

Thought by the police and coroner to
haae swallowed a quantity OF furniture
polish which he had been using on
tables IN the saloon OF J. r. McNin, at
No. 2ii East Front street last night,
John Davis. aged 80 years, died at tho
Delaware Hospital where he was taken
in the police patrol. Just what caused
Davis 10 take the poison was not stated.
Persons who were present at the
time were unable TO say when he
swallowed the fluid, he having been
busy about the place for some time
cleaning when he was seen TO stagger
about as II dazed.
McNln was the first one TO reach
Davis side, and while he tried 20 say
something, the best he could do was TO
utter some sounds and then fell uncon-
scious 90 the floor.
As far as could be learned Davis had
no regular home. travelling about the
country repairing moving machines.
He usually stayed Saturdays and sun
days at McNifrs saloon where he did
odd Jobs in return FOR his board.
The dead body was taken to the
morgue. Coroner Bullock said an au-
topsy had been performed at the hos
pltnl and that the inquest would be
held tonight
