LEsE MAJESTY

For nearly two years the American
people have labored under an unnatural
restraint of their liberties. They have
been subject to a moral censorship, cheer
fully accepted in the interest OF war but
never recognized as principle OF Ameri-
can government. Our people cheerfully
sacrificed their own personal views to
support the administration, permitting
the United States to wage war as
unit.
Under this policy great privileges were
delegated to the administration officials.
That the spirit was an aid to the winning
of the war there can be no doubt. AT the
same time it is apparent that this great
trust was not held as sacred as it might
have been by the administration. Demo-
crat propaganda branded as disloyal ev-
cry individual who dared to question the
wisdom of the new departures.
AS q war measure the submission to
this principle could hardly be considered
in any other light than patriotic duty.
When the railroads were first taken ov-
er by the government. it was branded dis
loyal to offer any criticism, so that the
opponents of government ownership were
silenced. Perhaps this was just as 1t
should be in the midst of a great war, but
we soon discovered that the proponents
of the new scheme were not so bound.
Even before the end of the war was in
sight we found Mr. McAdoo and other
proponents of government ownership
seeking to perpetuate the new order. 1t
was one sided argument because the
administration had previously determin-
ed that it was disloyal to offer any crit
icism, no matter how well founded. Grad
llally his loan of the American people
came to be considered as gift to the
Democrat party and the last campaign
was fought more or less on those lines.
That the people of these United States
felt that they still held the right of criti-
cism is evidenced in the result OF the last
election. BY that vote President Wilson
and the administration were soundly
criticised.
Now comes Brig. Gen. Richard w.
Young with the declaration that the
voice of the people is still subject. to the
restrictions of war. We have nothing but
the highest regard for Gen. Young as
a citizen and as military man.. Like
wise we nave no ueSlTe W CuI " q loh ca
preston of his honest convictions in the
precarious days of the reconstruction.
We do, however, feel that we must take
issue with his when he casts the cloak OF
.disloyalty on all who have different con-
wictions and the courage to express them
The time has passed when the mistakes
and blunders Of the administration should
be held immune from criticism by wall
of silence. If this spirit had been the
impelling motive of the United States we
still would be the subjects of Great Brit
ain, subject to any taxation and any gov
eminent that the authorities desired to
choose for u.s. Free American express
sion is not to h suppressed by this or any
other administration and it is not to be
confused wit ne seditious utterances

err at the meeting of the alumni of Bur

graduates of the class of 1919 and the
alumni on the true meaning of EDUCATION

He told the students that one thing they
should learn was their responsibility
toward other people. I'VE hear much
about independence nowadays" he said.
put we must remember no human being
can he entirely Independent. All are de-
pendent on each other and all should re-
member their duties toward each other
Just as the treaty Of peace is n great
turning point in tho world history and
not the end of one particularly thing, so
is graduation the turning point in the
life of an individual. It is a new begin
ming either of a different sort of work
or of more school work Graduation is
never the end Of learning, even If the
Individual does not go to college. for there
is no end TO learning. Even after grad
uation from college, learning does not
end for one cen always 90 on learning
new things all through life.
Education. however, entails RESPONSE
biiites and the educated person should
remember that he or she owes the world
more just because Of the advantages Of
education.
The Rev. Mr.. Watkins congratulated
the class of 1919 upon it's graduation and
wished it success. saying that he hoped
because of the education received it
should do more and better work.

SUMNER HOME ROBBED
Lake Front Residence OF Mrs. j. II.
Stcrnberg Completely RansncI<ed

Breaking a window in the large sum-
mer home Of Mrs. j. H. Sternberg near
the lake off North avenue some time
Sunday or Monday night a thief or
thieves completely ransacked the resi-
dence from top to bottom and made good
their escape with much booty in the line
of clothing. bedding. etc.
The robbery was not discovered until
Tuesday night and an investigation then
could not be satisfactorily made Yes
terday the local police, accompanied by
DR.. ]. II. Dodds, who is a brother of
Mrs. Sternberg, investigated the premises
and after a careful survey found that
the stolen property was much less than
was at first thought
1t is thought that the robbery was
committed with the aid Of a team or
automobile going off the avenue through
the short woods road which leads 10
the house, as tracks could be discerned
in the road. but the exact time they
were made could not be accurately ascer-
tanned. Every closet and drawer in the
residence was opened, but clothing
seemed to he the principal article desired
and several pieces were picked up on
the stairs and about the house which
evidently had been dropped. A sheet
had been removed from one of the beds
in which it is supposed that the booty
was carried out of the house. A close
watch is being kept by the police on
second hand clothing stores in the hopes
Of tracing the culprits.
Mrs. Sternberg Is at her winter home
in Reading, Pa, and is not expected to
arrive at her cottage for the season
until some time in July.
