Superheafed ldeaIism Gives Way
to American Common Sense
tFrom tho Ne W York sun

The frauds and false pretences OF
| superhested idealism are being swept
away by the irresistible rising tide OF
American common sense. The de-
moralizing doctrine OF flabbv interna-
fionalism preached by Woodrow Will
son has been oyerthrown by the i'm
pact Of sound, unadulterated. simon
pure nationalism The utOpian visions
seen by those who shut their ewes TO
the facts cannot be palmed off as ac-
curate pictures OF the world in which
we live, cannot deceive men and women
whose idealism is based on the solid
foundation Of knowledge and expert
ence.
Mr.. Wilson depicted to his fellow citi-
zens an earth whose peoples were not
interested in their own commercial wei
fare and politically were altruisfic in
the affairs OF their neighbors. His fell
low citizens looked about them and saw
the living peoples striving for self-ad-
vancement in industry and in trade,
zealously and jealOusly promoting their
own political prosperity. The fact
smashed the vision. The American peO-
pie. ruled by common sense in their
generosity and attachment to high
ideals, recognized the truth. They re-
fused to be fooled by fine words and
high phrases.
Nothing better could have happened
for the United States and the world
than the collapse OF Woodrow Wilson's
fantastic ediflce Of dreams. Nothing is
more dangerous for the peace of the
world than the treatment Of interna-
tional problems without heed 10 the
facts. Nothing more surely breeds bad
feeling, recrimination. the appeal to |
force between individuals or between
States than does the ignoring of the |
habits, the limitations, the passions i'm
posed on men by race or nationality. |
Nothing provOkes i'll will more surely !

w1IIING VICTIMS ALwAYs rINn nnnnrns.

THE American spirit apparently nnds it dnlcult "a
dnerentiate between being good fellow, and boine
good thing; between being easy going and an easy

Which IL 20 say, that reason prices are so high
Is because the buying public persists paying the price

And at eyorbitant prices
The cheaper cuts Of meat do not move any faster
when the better cuts double in price
Shop girls shod in the latest style Shoes whether
they cost five dollars or fifteen the pair.
The travelling public demands the best the finest hotels
have to offer, whether the price be three dollars day
or thirty.
The cafes and cabarets and grllls and similar resorts
hronged ever and tho cheaper restaurants

The only institution not patronzed in period Of in
