oil. Various causes are conspiring to make the
cost of coal prohibitive, besides which 1T takes
up more cargo space aid requires several
shifts of hard worked, highly paid stokers TO
keep up steam. Oil is cheaper in every way.
England sees that she must have it in unlimited
supply and that it behooves her to be ahead or
abreast of the world in making the change.
The Cunard line is to use the new fuel as soon
as oil burners can be installed. Drilling for oil
has begun in England and there is encourage
ment for the hope that Providence which stored
the island so richly with other minerals did not
overlook petroleum. Englishmen have oil IN
terests in Mexico and elsewhere and Canada
has half a dozen discovered fields the produc-
ton Of which the mother country may finance
But this is only an oil drop in the bucket to
what the British government aims at, for it has
bought the Royal Dutch Oil %company's oil
interest in many countries which made it the
greatest oil producer in the world. England
will thus acquire rich fields in several Ameri-
can states, in South and Central America.
China, Russia, Persia, Mesopotamia, Sweden
and Rumania. With the supply assured, the
British government and maritime companies
will feel safe in beginning at ence and pushing
as fast as possible the conversion into oil burn
ers of its naval and merchant fleets.

WHERE THE RATCHET WAS BURIED.

No power on earth questioned the fine motive
with which we entered the war. In no material
act of ours can the world question our adherence
to that motive. No one should now question the
disinteredness of this nation in bringing about
peace; we are seeking nothing for ourselves.
There is doubt in the minds of millions of Amer
leans whether we are strictly minding our own
business at Paris; but at least we are not work
ing there or elsewhere for selfish advantage.
Quite justly it may be said that we have been
in our war career a friend to right causes and
world justice.
Years ago in a little book called "Motifs" it
was said: "They sought a place to bury the
Ratchet and found it in the heart of the friend
who had reconciled them" Setting aside here
the question of the need, the wisdom, the JUS
tice of the attitude enunciated by the president
as that. of this nation toward Italy's claims, it
is not one of hostility for selfish reasons; our
own advantage is not promoted by any de-
cision in the matter. But it is wholly probable
that whatever decision is reached, no matter
how it composes difficulties between Europeans,
it will leave an unfriendly feeling with all par
ties toward this nation. One of the saddest
possibilities of our altruistic war making is that
in peace making we may find peace a time of
wide and bitter hostility to us by those who have
been our war allies. It will be a calamity un-
deserved if the Ratchet is buried in our future
welfare.

OIL VS.. COAL.

Great Britain dominated the seas for several
centuries while wind was the propeling power.
Then the marvellous clippers contested suprem-
acy with her, steam began to revolutionize
ocean traffic and slowly it became clear to fore
sight that the future belonged to bulls of iron.
With her usual sagacity and promptitude Eng
land adapted herself to the changing situation.
Her coal and iron and the energy with which
she threw herself into the new order triumphed
and though we had at first.a chance of compel.
ing with her, our policy was hating, undeter-
mined, Intellectual, and her walls of iron and
then of steel came soon to hold the blue deep
securely as her wooden walls and 'shearts of
oak had held it since Drake "singed the
beard Of the king of Spain" and the Spanish
armada went down the deeps or on the rocks.
Now another revolution in ocean traffic is indi-
cated, and while we have as usual a seeming
chance to lead the nations in it and ride to
maritime supremacy on the crest of the wave
OF change, England is not asleep or idle but
silently and intently alert to hold her own.
lhe new revolution is to supersede coal bv

Chicago Journal: The supreme court
OF the United States has squelched,
once for all the schemes OF mon
opolies to get higher rates than those
prescribed in the franchise under
which they operate. Sustaining the
trial judge, whose opinion in the
Toledo case was recently quoted in
these columns, the judges of the fed
eral supreme branch declared:
That o franchise is a contract.
That no court can abrogate a con-
tract.
That no contract can be changed
unless both parties consent to the
change.
That the sole business OF courts In
dealing with contracts is to interpret
and enforce them.
That the fact. where 1t is a fact,
that public service corporation is los
ing money by fulfilling the terms Of its
franchise, does not lessen the binding
force Of those terms.
The daily Gate City and constitution-Democrat. (Keokuk, Iowa) 1916-1922, 1919-05-03
A FRANCHISE Is A CONTRACT

These declarations are no surprise
TO readers of the Journal. This paper
has stated and restated them, again
and again. 1t claims no originality
for doing so. The principles laid down
by the supreme court in the Toledo
case are among the Oldest and best
established in law and are incor-
rorated in the federal constitution
But when the street car ~barons OF
Chicago sought to evade or prevent
these principles, the Journal was the
only paper in the city that took the
side of the people, and held fast TO
the legal maxims on which the Juris'
trodence Of the county rests.
It is not always popular to stand for
Public rights, mo- always profitable;
l.ut it is always satisfactory. From
this time on, the task should be easier.
for the campaign which this paper
made has received the approval Of the
-upreme court of the United States.

A LIFE OF JACK LONDON.

Chairman K. London, innate" of that manly
one whose early death is mourned by thousands
of admirers of his talent as a writer and who
was noted for possession of a most engaging
personality, is at work on a biography of Jack,
Mrs. London, herself a writer of no small
achievement, finds this a labor of love, and the
volume when given to the public will doubtless
be overlooking with that human touch which
is so much in evidence in her "Our Hawaii, -
one of the most interesting and correctly in
forming volumes relating to the islands that
has come from the presses in a decade. The
great amount of literary work done by Jack
London and the adventurous course of his life,
his love for animals, unselfish interest in the
''down and %outers' and the possession of a
comraderie rare in these days would make the
setting down of the facts Of his career an enjoy
able task on the part of any appreciative writer.

TODAY.
We who have loved the Old World spell,
The glamour of ancient things
Poetry stored in lands afar,
Majesty browning kings. ~
Ruined castle and ivied moat,
Armor and blunderbuss,
Blazoned scutcheon and jeweled shrlne,-
What are they now to US?
Dead is the past of yesterday
Like the past of a thousand years;
Gone the beauty of outworn things,
The horror of bygone fears.
Life! Life unseals our eyes!
These are wonderful days,
Glory CLEANS from humble souls,
Treading familiar ways.
Proven valor of poor and weak
Not by "a fairy tale;
Golden legends are daily news,
Christendom does not fail.
The mighty are fallen, the proud ashamed,
Force is bowed in the dust,
But heroes march in the rank and file.
And the meek hold power in trust.
When was the beautiful world so strange,
Or ever romance so rife!
With an undreamed future-ours 10 mold
From the marvellous gift OF Life.

IOWA PRESS

Cedar Falls Record: Iowa was
placed in a humiliating position at
the landing of the Rainbow division
because of the failure of the legis-
lature to appropriate funds to enable
the state to make a decent showing.
Other states had made more or less
elaborate arrangements, and we are
sure that for such an occasion as
this the ordinary taxpayer would
have been glad to contribute his
fraction of a nickel, the amount re
quired to make Iowa's welcome in
keeping with the wealth, Importance
and dignity of the state.
Atlantic News-Telegraph: The
thing that presents itself to as, the

might be that he wouldn't recognize

Cedar Rapids Republican: Som1

many patriotism seems to be out Of

NEXT JOB.

Eta V. Leighton, civic secretary of the Ma
tional Security League, says that woman is
looking for her next job; that women all over
the country are asking What are we to. do
now?" Miss Leighton proposes a big project
one big enough for all the women in all the
varieties of them, of all parties, sects and sorts.
She says woman's next job-the American
woman's-is to make America American.
Here is the best thing that can be done for
America and the American woman is Just the
person for the job. She is the natural foe Of
anarchy, of destruction of moral, physical and
mental safeguards. She is the homemaker and
homekeeper; she controls the coming genera
ton. Moreover, when she chooses she comes
close to controlling the present generation.
Miss Leighton says American women will
follow Lincoln S motto; they will revolution
lie through the ballot box;'' they will bring
about reforms through the "orderly process of
law" they will labor increasingly for ian edu-
Gated people,
viii American women become such Ameri
can women as Miss Leighton previsions9 IF
they do, they can do all that she promises.
