new era that was going to come after
the war when selfishness would be
banished from the hearts Of men and
our ancient business adversaries would
lie awake nights trying to figure out
ways and means whereby they could
promote our prosperity rather than
their own. The British government
will of course look after British IN
terests. The French government VIII
look after French interests. That, IN
fact, is their first duty. The Bible
says that he who does not first look
out for his own household is worse
than an infidel. The only capital IN
the world dominated by coterie OF
gabbling visionaries who strike down
Legislation devised and successfully de-
vised, to preserve American prosper
ity against alien invasion, to the para
lysis of American industry and the
destruction of American employment,
is at Washington, d. C. The people
of the United States have already
landed one good stout kick on the party
responsible for this imbecile policy, or
lack of policy, and at the next cleo
tion they will jump upon the Demo-
cratic jackass with both feet and kick
it ears, bray and all into the outer
most darkness. Meanwhile why not
cut out the idiotic blither about Great
Britain having done something unex-
pected in taking measures Of self-pre-
and self-betterment at
time when every real statesman is
thinking seriously Of the absolute ne
eessity of keeping the home factory
fiers burning. the home farms prosper
Gus, and the home hearts contented?
That this policy is not thought of by
Democratic politicians in Washington
does not detract from the force of this
tatement.-National Republican.

The Seattle Idea

The strike at Seattle is as disquist-
ing as it Is astounding. Union labor
has stood firmly for the right Of col
lective bargaining. Now a section Of
union labor, having entered into a
certain bargain to work In the ship
yards at a certain wage, for a certain
time, repudiates its own contract with
the shipyards and the government
It is an announcement that union
labor, in making a contract, cannot be
compelled. by moral power or by law.
10 carry II out. It Is a declaration
that union labor reserves the privilege
and right, when il makes bargain TO
withdraw from 1t at will.
Quite clearly II labor generally
yields to the demands Of radicialism,
it is an end Of unionism-the unionism
which has made great gains during
the past several years and which has
found acceptance Of its principles. or
many Of them. by employers and pub
lie.
It is a grave crisis for the public.
It is a graver crisis for labor itself.
Shall the Seattle tail Of radicalism and
revolution wag the great animal Of
labor throughout the Nation?

GAINING A LITTLE
Democratic Party May Get Abreast of
The Times by the Year 1000.

For the past half century the demo-
cratic party has been travelling along
20 years behind the times, but recent
indications are that they have reached
a stage where they are only 16 years
behind and this gives encouragement
to hope that if Prexy Wilson leaves
them any party a-tall, it may catch up
with the times by the year 1000. Six
teen years ago the republicans of Colo
RADIO under the leadership Of Governor
Peabody came into power in the midst
of one Of the most disasterous and des-
truetive labor wars ever known in the
country. Treason, arson and anarchy
were the order Of the day in the en-
tire Cripple Creek district. The sit
uation was promptly relieved by de-
porting the trouble breeders and peace
has reigned in Cripple Creek ever
since. Every democratic organization
in Colorado and throughout the Unit
ed States raised howl and the demo-
cratic press of the country loudly de-
nounced Governor Peabody for years
following. Today President Wilson
has taken his cue from an ADLER man,
Governor Peabody, and is settling the
grave situation at Seattle in exactly
the same manner by deporting the an
archists and agitators. The servile
democratic press now swaps around
and says it Is the right thing to do.
OF course it Is for it is copied from
republican achievement of l6 years
ago.

Beavers Trouble.

Lon Beavers, who has been under
suspicion by the non-partisan league
ever since he rode down from Las An
imas with Doc. Hasty last fall, en-
deavored to square himself with the
organization last week by spewing his
bile against the Lamar Yambas all
over two or three pages of The Sparks.
Lon gives his trouble away in the very
first line when he uses the plural first
personal pronoun. 1t is very ancient
saying that only two kinds Of men are
entitled to use the "we," editors and
a man with a tapeworm-and Lon
isn't an editor. The world moves on
and Main street is one week nearer
being paved.

Lost Morale.

There was a time. when the esprit
de corps Of the Postal service was at a
high standard, when postal employees
took great pride in being able to get
a letter to its destination even though
the writer was careless or ignorant in
writing the address on the envelope.
Under the present demoralized condi-
tion Of the service difficulty in de-
ciphering an address is solved by send
ing the letter back to the writer or
to the dead letter office.
