Do You Know?

While some of us are whining about the dolorous fates which
beset us; whining about the lawful fall down. Of our vast govern
mental enterprises; whining abut the terrific depletion of human life
without end, etc while You hear this ding dong ,,
DO YOU know that there has never been a time in the worlds
history when there was so much genuine religion expressed in terms
OF goodness and generosity and self sacrifice as there is today
Do YOU know that in the expenditure Of about $2O00oo0o,Oo
in the last two years there has thus far been proved not one single
instance OF deliberate conusive dishonesty in any branch Of the gov.
eminent nor in army or navy, nor any colossal blunder Of administra-
tive or military or navy officersf "H. Ill.,. a@s.1

Burleson National Liability.

rTom TITO WOW roN WoTo uVUtHnuad beWoCTaIJ
Taking the record Of the last six years, the Burleson appoint
ment, on the whole, has proved the mos. unfortunate that the Presi-
dent ever made unfortunate for Mr. Wilson himself, unfortunate for
his administration, unfortunate for the democratic party and unfor-
tunate for the country. Mr.. Bryan was a sorry misft as secretary Of
state, but Mr.. Bryans selection was inevitable, and in naming him
Mr.. Wilson followed the political traditions of the country. More
scribed, because Mr.. Wilson, in reality, was his own secretary of stat.
straints upon Mr.. Bureson. He has roamed at large, been allowed to
administer his office in his own amazing way, and the consequences
are appalling. .. .... 1|' - ..'
Instead of being a link between the President and congress, he
has been a source of continuing contention. Disliked and distrusted
at the capitol, he has made the President relations with congress
more difficult. AS a political adviser to the President he has been q
democratic tragedy. If there has been any instance in which Mr.
Wilson has not involved himself in trouble by taking counsel Of AL
bert Sidney Burleson, we should like to know when it happened. "
3D. These are minor matters, however. 1t is with Mr.. Burleson as
postmaster general that the country is chiefly concerned, and as post
master general Mr.. Burleson is q national liability. The postofice de.
partment was bad enough when he took hold; under his management
it has steadily deteriorated. The war gave the telegraph and tee.
phone service into his hands, and the blight of Burlesonism has now
fallen upon all the agencies of communication. We doubt II there is
a single business, a single industry, a single activity, that is not a
victim of the Bureson system of administration.
Had the postmaster general set out deliberately to discredit gov
eminent ownership and operation of public utilities he could not have
been more successful in his undertaking. ~. .-
But in the meantime the American people have to pay for all
this laundering incompetency, and the longer that President Wilson
keeps Mr.. Burleson in office the more difficult he makes his own
great task. Probably twothirds Of the popular opposition to the
President, disregarding that which is the conventional antagonism Of
blind, unreasoning partisanship, is the direct product OF Burlesonism,
and Mr.. Wilson could render no greater service to himself than to
get rid of his postmaster general.

Riehf Under Our Own Noses.
From the illustrated News.

While the world is wrapped in a turmoil of revolutions by blood
and fire, the most effective though silent one of the day has been
taking place in North Dakota, through the ballot, demonstrating be-
yond question that, given the franchise and the will to use it, far
more can be accomplished through it than by force of arms. The
non partisan league has so completely revoutionized the state Of
North Dakota, that it is headed in exactly the opposite direction than
it was headed in a few years ago, from top to bottom.
!, No blood was shed, no arms used, just silent little pieces of paper
as bullets, but the slaughter Of established privilege and vested rights
of a few men over many, has been greater than in any battle Of arms.
When 10000 intelligent men will leave their farms and work, stand
for hours in the blizzard and snow, to listen to plain talk along hon
est lines, quietly make up their own minds and then 60 to the polls
and out the matter through without strife, you have a vindication of
democracy and the power of the ballot in democracy, as against force
of arms, that needs no argument.
Right under our own noses, one of the greatest revolutions of
the day and age has been pulled off, but so silently and without blood
shed. we have not noticed it.

VIEWS OF HARDEN.

Berlin (via London), May 13.--Maxi-
milan Harden. editor of the Berlin Die
Zukunft, writing on the peace treaty,
says. E..
THE peace conditions are not harder
than I expected. They were unpleasant
to the greater part of, the people. But
could n really have expected them
otherwiseR 90.
THE Germans have not given very
convincing mental guarantees during
he six months since the revolution
that they have changed their system;
on the contrary, the present govern
ment and the press nave used the same
methods of Indictment, the same tricks
Of bluff as under the old rule of the
petty nobility.
THE governments p~roclamations are
only bad copies of the kaiser's time.
The whole press is a~gitatiHg for re-
fusal to sign the treaty, and to what
use? All must know that the allies by
keeping up the blockade and occupy
ing the coal districts can force Ger
many to sign whatever they want.
Germany should have sent men who
would have laid their cards IN the
table and got. the allies to understand
that some Of the conditions were un-
acceptable. If Germany showed its good
will to do what is in its power to COM
ply with the allies requests, the allies
would see that conditions were changed
in favor of Germany, because they
know there must be a Germany and
that 1t is impossible to destroy the
German people"

BY Associated Press.

Paris, May 13.-President Wilson, In
m address to the French academy OF
noral and political sciences. entered
, strong disclaimer of the idea that
the American people were largely ma
terialists or dollar worshipers.
Il have had in recent months n
very deep sense of privilege" the presi-'
dent said. II have been keenly aware
that there have been times when thu
peoples Of Europe have not understood
the people of the United States. We
have been too often supposed to have
been devoted chiefly, IL not entirely, to
material enterprises. We have been
supposed in the common phrase to
worship the almighty dollar.
w have accumulated wealth. sir:
we nave devoted ourselves to material
enterprises with extraordinary success.
but there has underlain all of, that, all
the time, a common sense Of humanity
and a common sympathy with the high
principles Of justice which has lever
grown dim in the field of every enter
prise, and 1t is my very great Joy in
these recent months to interpret tho
people Of the United States to thu
people Of the world.
Il have not done more, sir; I have

I have known to be the thoughts
Of the great people whom 1 represent.

poses from the time of our birth as a

1t was at this point that the presi-
dent made his declaration that the
American people who came inc the

ready to cast in their lot in common

erty was seen to be imperilled. '

Attacks Germans.

"A great many Of my colleagues in
American university life got their train
ing even in political science, as SO many
men in civil circles did, in German uni
,versities. l have been obliged at var
ious, times to read a great deal OF bad
German, difficult German, awkward
German, and l have been aware that
the thought vas as awkward as the
phrase, that the thought vas rooted
in q fundamental misconception of the
state and of political life Of peoples.
1t has been a portion of my effort to-
disengage the thought Of American uni
versity teachers from the misguided
instructions which they had received
on this side Of the sea. Their American
spirit anticipated most of, them, as q
matter Of course, but the form OF
thought sometimes misled them.
These Germans speak too often OF
a state as a thing which would ignore
the individual, as a thing which is priv
ileged to dominate the fortunes of men
by a sort Of inherent and sacred au-
thority.
Now. as an utter democrat. 1 hava
never been able to accept that KEW Of
the state. My view of the state Is that
it must stop and listen to what l have
to say, no matter how humble l an.
and that each mar has the right to
have his voice heard and his council
needed, insofar as it is worthy of him

world knows that he is a fool.

It is defeated; not by the seclusion OF

men get nto that sort of communion
