"Americanism" at Ardmore.

Citizens of Ardmore, Okl., have sent 4
message to Senator Reed, warning him not to
come there to deliver an address opposing the
League of Nations. This is clearly within their
right, although it appears to be an extraordi-
nary exercise of the right. Accompanying the
warning, which is intended to be prohibition,
these censorious Oklahomans also denounce as
"un-American and undemocratic' the course
pursued by Senators Reed and Gore. We. are
willing to admit that it is "undemocratic'" to
decline to accept anything ami everything that
emanates from the president. That is the true
and acid test of democracy, and only such as
swallow whole whatever comes from the White
House are worthy to be listed as democrats.
As to the Americansm involved, we fancy
most folks will differ with and from the earnest
Ardmoreans. Senators Reed and Gore merely
are discharging the duty laid on the senate by
the constitution. The power to make treaties
entrusted to the president is limited by the right
of review vested in the senate. 1t is true that
Mr.. Wilson has in effect given his orders to the
present senate that his treaty must be accepted,
and it is equally true that the senate has shown
no disposition to accept that order at its face
value. Ardmore and other blind followers Of
the pleSlQeHtS lcdu ignore TIC Hlipoi tdHt luHS-
ton of the senate, just as did the executive
when he set about to negotiate the treaty.
Honest differences of opinion have arisen as
to the advisability of entering into the compact
signed at Versailles Certain democratic sena-
tors have felt moved to place patriotic duty
above party service. To denounce these men
as un-American is straining to the uttermost
that bitterness of partisanship which Mr.. Will
son has urged all to avoid in considering the
great question.

Confidence is the Key.

That restoration of order and normal condi-
tons in Omaha after the recent turbulence is
we'll under way is plainly visible.
Confidence in the purpose and ability of the
military authorities who are in charge is the
key to the situation.
Everybody feels without the slightest doubt
that General Wood with the troops under his
command, will permit nothing that even savors
of the mob spirit to get started, and with that
feeling prevalent, the streets of Omaha are as
safe today as they ever were and probably safer.
The rapidity of the recovery and the
fastening of the return to civil government ex-
clusively will depend upon the good behavior
of our own people. Let one and all help to get
over this period of trial as fast as possible.

TarlY1Q the Rent Prof1teers

The members OF the Board of Estimate have
been slow in reaching the definite announce
ment that they would favor increased salaries
for policemen, fremen and street-sweepers and
for other employees of the city receiving less
than 81 800 a year; and that the money is to
be found by raising assessments upon landlords
who have raised their rents. 1t has long been
evident that this course must be pursued
Conditions strongly favor such a course. In
the five war years real estate assessments in
New York have been raised but about 3.5 per
cent. its increase in population being much
greater. 1t is common knowledge that within
the past year rental property has risen in value
by an increase of rents, or has at the very least
been stabilized in value by more moderate
changes.
Assessors must be guided by the law in
using uniform rule of valuation, but even the
more grasping option gamblers cannot COM
plain at the employment of rule by which
they themselves are guided. Show one of them
the, rent-roll of tenement-house and he can
state its value almost without looking at it.
And that speculative value allows fair return
to investment, even if rents should later fall
somewhat.
(. It is estimated that the total increase of
realty assessments may be $200,000,0OO Such
figure which is by no means excessive would
take care of the inevitable growth in the
budget.-New York World.

NOT IN GOOD GRACE.

Two days after the catastrophe, Governor
McKelvie comes to Omaha ostentatiously to
investigate" the causes of the riot, but preludes
his activities by reading the citizens long
moral lecture. 1t is barely possible that mad
the governor investigated first and talked after
wards, he might have talked differently. Par
ticularly in decrying criticism Of public Off
Gals would he have withheld the rebuff he so
pompously hands those who were uneasy over
the manifestly incompetent police control OF
the city until Uncle Sans soldiers took it over.
Most amazing is the governors statement
that he had = report from his special agent,
Gus" Hyers, as early as Friday afternoon,
which made the precariousness of the situation
clear to him, in connection with the absence
of any record that following this he took any
step to forestall trouble in Omaha or to boil
ster up the police. When the riot broke, and
an appeal was made to Lincoln for aid that
could be secured only through the governors
office it was the lieutenant governor who called
the secretary of war by telephone, and secured
an order to General Wood for troops to be
sent here
The governors effort to paliate the failure
of the police administration OF Omaha by in
voking for it immunity from criticism is as
lame as his attempt to turn the Sunday out
awry into an argument for his plan for a state
constabulary. If he really was warned in ad-
vance, as he says, it was his duty to advise
with the Omaha authorities without delay, to
have remained on watch until the threatened
danger was averted, and to have gone the limit
to uphold the law. Under the circumstances it
does not come with good grace for the gov
ernor to curtan-lecture the citizens OF Omaha,
who have borne so long with maladministration
of the law that must have been known even at
Lincoln

Postponement of Ak-Sar-Ben.

Only the thoughtess will question the wis
dom of the postponement of the Ak-Sar-Ben
celebration. Disappointing it is, it is far
better to have the carnival season set back a
few days. or to have it 60 over entirely for the
season, rather than to incur any risk of trouble
by permitting large assemblages under the cir
cumstances. Quiet is being restored to Omaha,
and the passions, famed to explosive intensity
are cooling down, but only when the military
authorities are satisfied that no more danger of
an outbreak exists will it be safe to invite great
gatherings to assemble on the streets for any
purpose. Ak-Sar-Ben is too we'll established
as an institution to materially suffer from this
All the expenditures made of money and labor
in preparation has not been wasted, for it is

derstand the misfortune of the present, as we'll

STUPID L1quor Interests

In prosecution at Trenton for violation OF
the wartime prohibition law the New Jersey
LIQUOR Dealers Protective league has deemed
+ wise as measure of defense to subpoena
General Pershing and Secretaries Baker and
Daniels as witnesses. What they hope to prove
by these gentlemen is that the war is over and
that the liquor traffic, may now be resumed

hibtion next January. :,

termined and proclaimed by the president of
the United States"
Nobody but brewer or a saloon keeper or
one of their numerous hangers-on could
imagine that anything is to be gained from the
testimony of the officials named, close as their
relations to the war have been. They. in COM
mon with all their subordnates and the whole
body OF the people, can have no knowledge or

Stance the facts are to be determined and pro-
claimed by the president, who cannot be sub

personal liberty are approached chiefly with a
ievity that is both shocking and stupid-New

"The White Mans Burden"

Landing of the marines at Trau is now ad-
mitted to have been in conformity with the
obligation we assumed when we entered the
war. 1t is apparently part of the aftermath
from which we are not yet relieved just as was
the sending of troops to Siberia and Russia. 1t
is only single phase of "the white mans bur-
den" and some of the others are fast coming
into view One of these is included to con-
siderable extent in the visit of the king and
queen of Belgium. Preceding them will be ex-
hibited some specially prepared films, which
show the progress made in Belgium in the way
of restoring industrial life. These pictures
were made under direction of the Belgian gov
eminent, and for the frank purpose Of favor
ably impressing Americans Belgium is not
the only country looking to America for hnan-
cial help to carry on. 1t is merely going about
the move in more systematic manner. Whether
the League of Nations is established or not we
are sure to have ample opportunity to aid in
the restoration of Europe.

TURK OFFICERS BRIGANDS
Outlaw Bands Are Very Active In the

Sings of general disorganization

day. Recently bandits captured a
British officer and five Indian SOL
diers guarding caravan between
Marsovan, which has an American
Protestant college, and SAMSON, on

risky for a foreigner to travel in
