THE REAL MENACE


 It is not organized labor which threatens the future of this country. Neither is it the insatiate greed of capitalism.
 Without organization labor would be underpaid and underfed
 Without the capitalist there would be no adequate avenues for the em- ployment of labor.
 Both must survive.
 But the menace with which we must cope is the alien parasite who has fastened himself on organized labor and is daily eating out the heart of the great American republic.
 These radicals from other lands are in a majority of cases not even citi- zens of our country. They are not loyal to our institutions nor to the true interests of the organizations to which they have attached themselves. IT ey are alien agitators and de- stroyers,-nothing more. They preach their pernicious doctrines and prey upon the susceptibilities of others with the sole idea in view of creating discord and disruption for their own individual advantage. They would displace the intelligent leadership of labor organizations and using the seat of authority for themselves. And they are succeeding n these nefari- ous undertakings to an alarmingly wonderful degree.
 Violence is their only effective wearon,. and this they employ to the limit of their possibilities in their campaign of brutality and intimida- tion.
 They are shrewd enough, however, to see that the responsibility for their devilishness is laid at the door of or ganized labor, and by this means es- cape the individual punishment which is their just due.
 The American people have been bully ragged by these aliens until patience is no longer virtue.
 The time is at hand for the gov ernment, the law abiding element of organized labor and the public to kick these malcontents out of the coun try Or place them where they can nc longer agitate and destroy.
 The poisonous snake is a source oi constant danger and is promptly crushed.
 The alien parasite who is sucking the blood of honest labor and preach ing sedition among our citizens is national peril and should be exter minated.

THE HARNESS-MAkER PRESIDENT.

On the day consecrated to the memory of their
own Railsplitter President the people OF the
United States learned of the election of a former
harness-m maker to the Presidency of the new Ger
man state by 277 votes against 40 cast for scion
of the aristocracy who was his closest COM
petitor.
Friedrich Ebert had earned the honor. 1t IS
true as Eduard David said, that in him Germany
has for the first time head empowered to speak
and act for the German people, and that the
revolution in Germany did not follow the muir
derous course of Russia's.
The announcement of the vote, the commenda-
ton of the new President, his own words, were
complmented by the disfavor of the Independent
Socialists who openly urge Bolshvik methods
They were received with better outward grace
but grudgngy as a bitter necessity, by Junker
elements in the Assembly 1t is the strength OF
Herr Eberts position now and it will be the
strength of his government that it does displease
extremists, both reactiOnary and Anarchstlc; ;
that it does represent the grea middle station il
life whose members in Germany as in the Uniteo
States. are not only an educated and stabilizing
power but q numerical majority.
The world may we'll congratulate Germany
upon founding republic with an intelligent ex-
harness maker as its head.

TRAUB TRUMPS.

AS General Pershing smashed the political
scandalmongerS who were making such pother
over alleged camp conditions at Brest so Cen
eral Traub smashes the political scandalmon-
gers who were making as noisy pother over
alleged neglect by the government OF our boys
IN the Argonne.
General Traub was in command of the glor-
ious Thirty-fifth Division in that glorious bat
tie and his testimony regarding it, elected by
a committee of congress, should thrill every
American who reads it. He completely refuted
the charges of the scandamongers, headed by
Governor Allen, of Kansas, that our forces
lacked equipment in that campaign, and that
they were criminally sacrificed. 1T was most
stupendous task he said, and 1.-The way it was
handled by General Pershing and his staff Will
be a marvel of all future time. Surely 1t was a
marvellous piece of work, marveously we'll done
by all concerned.
Our mission was to win the war and we did
the iob' continued General Traub when he was
interrupted by Representative Cantrlll, OF
Kentucky. who said that criticism had come
from civilians for political purposes Cen
eral Traub said he did not object to criticism,
except that "it must make the parents of the
dead and wounded and the sick think the suit
erne that their dead ones underwent was need
less" --.-
Everything in Gods world that could be
done was done" the general added
Representative Campbell, of kansas, pointed
out that criticism had not been made OF the
officers or men, but of the lack Of material.
That IS not well founded answered the gen
eral
When Mr. Campbell, who was in sympathy
with the scandamongers, sought TO floor Cen
eral Traub by asking him why the soldiers III
the battle were without blankets, the general
promptly laid out the Kansas congressman By
answering that blankets and all unnecessary
equipment were removed when a soldier en-
tered battle. The Kansas critics may not have
know this, although most other people know
it, but they ought to DC able to understand the
information which General Traub gave them
by reflecting that when the average politician
or the Kansas politician, who usually goes the
average politician few better-enters pollti-
ca! battle he generally leaves behind his con-
science, with other impediments OF an honest
man which, however, he may employ IN the al
fairs of private life he regards only as lncum
brsnces when he enters a political battle.
''What the American public ought to be do
ing said General Traub is singing paens to
the American soldiers who brought the Boche
power to the dust" And that is just what the
American public is doing, notwithstanding the
efforts of certain Kansans and that ik 10 divert
the public from patriotic paens to political
war dance.

THE ASSASSIN.

The circumstances of the attempt to murder
Premier Clemenceau call attention TO the TACT
that the intention of an assassin is placker
crime than the taking of life in many clrcum-
stances which, before any fearless jury call Tor
the death penalty.
Ii will be recalled that the question upper
most in the minds of Americans when Presl-
dent Mckinley hovered between life and death
was what ought to be done to remedy the OBJ
vicus defect Of the law which makes murder
a crime punishable by death, but does not make
attempted assassination punishable by death,
however narrowly the effort may miss success.
1t was proposed that act be passed declar-
ing an effort upon the life of public officer
capital crime. But is the would-be assassin OF
his neighbor less deserving of the death penalty
because his intended victim is less valuable to
the public, or less conspicuous?
Clemenceaus assailant had no grievance.
His crime was the result Of premedtation. He
appears remorseess. He stands where Giteau
stood when President Garfield was stricken but
still living and where Czolgoz stood when Presi-
dent Mckinley was wounded but yet alive. He
Is inst as guilty, just as clearly deserving of
death. as if Clemenceau were dying today in
stead of. as the world hopes and physicians and
eurgeons believe recovering from his wounds
He is puiltier than an assassin IN neighbor-
bood fued ONLY if we assert that personal
orieyance is more defensible or eXcusable thar
The animus of anarchists against rulers or lead
crs in public affairs.
Attempted assassination-any cowardly Ell
fort TO kin an unsuspecting and presumably de
fenseless person-is at a level morally with tn
attempt which succeeds, but it is lmprobapl
that the fact will be recognized by law as al
fectipg assassins of all classes regardless OF ID
class OF consequence OF their INTENDED VlctiiiiS'

WITHOUT A RECORD.

''Without a record vote" the United State1
Senate passed the annual Rivers and Harbor9
Appropriation Bill Tuesday
But why without a record vOte?'
1t is the solicitous purpose of the perpetra-
tors Of some deeds to leave no record behind II
is the study of the shrewd criminal to do his
work in such way that the curious Paul Prys
of the law shall find no record No one objects
to leaving good record; most people object to
leaving bad ones. Why was there no record OF
the vote which put through this bill, measure
of wide public interest? Can it be that for any
reason majority of the senators did not care
to have it known how they voted on this meas
ure?
1t is bill which Mr. Cantrill, of the House
Committee on Public Buildings and Grounds
has described as pork barrel Of the worst
kind" It has been attacked as such by botf
Democratic and Republican members of th'
Senate 1t would be regarded by many as Wortf
while to be able to ascertain, if the spirit shoult
move, just what senators voted for the BIN
Such information would be of value as furnish
ing basis not only for study Of the motive
which may have determined senator's votes OF
this measure, but for estimating their sincerit!
when in future they deliver impassioned phil
ippes, as they undoubtedly will, against ex
travagance in the expenditure Of the taxpayers
money.

PRISON REFORM AND DOLLARS.

One of the strange, but necessary. by prod
ucts of the war, is going to be prison-re
in fact, the whole correctional system of the
world is undergoing searching inquiry.
The reason is tvo-fod. The general release
of men and women, through revolutionary
movements, who had suffered under unjust
court procedures of other days, has naturally
spelled, with the arrival of these victims in pow
er, house-cleanng of all political statutes and
their drastic punishments.
But another and more important reason is
the unloosing of ideals and a general stirring in
the breSt of humanity as a direct result of the
spiritual experience of the war. This had made
men and women revise their conception of that
which we call human nature; war experiences
have laid bare strange things in the hearts of
men; offenders against society were fould to
have qualities of virtue, hitherto undiscovered; ;
manliness, for example,; deep-rooted and sub
merged patriotism; long lost sense of duty.
So society, generally, here and abroad, be
gun to look at the problem of crime in coec-
tive way. The problems were must the same
in every country; the offenSeS were the same
the world over Even temptations, in verying
settings according to the country, were very
similar.
On the principle of efficiency it seemed the
part of wisdom to carefully inspect this non
productive human material, discover the flaws
and, before consigning it to the scrap heap OF !
the prison, make sure the flaw could not be re
moved or the weak part strengthened.
Where before only isolated movements and
individual philanthropists had cared to tackle
this difficult problem, whole nations, in the !
light of the new undertaking of humanity, |
chose at once to make the necessary investiga-
tions. not only as humanitarian work, but a
definite economic measure.
Translating each human being in the world
into some amount in dollars and cents, repre-
senting his contribution to the world during his
life each individual would represent many
thousand dollars. In the aggregate, then, the
occupants of the prisons who under the old
system, were so much human waste, represent
ed fabulous fortune in misdirected human
energy.
This is a world-problem, the sensible scien-
tific study Of crime and its causes, and the
whole world is in the mood to revise its pena!
code from top to bottom, and to place the sins OF
man in the same class as other stern economic
problems, in which treatment must vary from
mild to severe in accordance with the Qesper~
ateness of the case, but in all of which cases,
ultimate usefulness to society is the supreme
obiect-Dearborn Independent.

made by travelling man at Hotel
Brumley this morning.
at sure has got the pep" he went
on to say. Il never have seen so
many civic improvements during the
past few years for town of this
size. Within very few years, at the
rate she is going, Greeneville should
be one of the most beautiful and
prosperous little cities in this whole
section of the country"
We believe we can say, truthfully,
that our citizens are beginning to
feel the incentive toward building a
Greater Greeneville," and a large
number of new buildings are now 60
ing up throughout the town. Greene
vile has grown to such an extent dur
ing the past few years that it is es-
sential just now that our people take
up the question of public park in
earnest, and the meeting called for
tomorrow night should be attended
by every man, woman and child in
the city who are interested in such
a movement.

Asbury Sunday
School Picnic

Promptly at one o'clock yesterday,
automobiles and trucks were in read
mess in front of the church to take
the school on an afternoon picnic to
Tusculum. There were about 200 in
readiness, and without a mishap, all
were soon on the historic college cam
pus ready for a good time. After go
ing all over the grounds and viewing
with admiration the splendid build
ings and well-kept lawns, and visiting
the spring which is always interesting,
everybody assembled on the ball
grounds to witness the game of base
ball <between the Asbury Bible Glass
and Mr.. Parker's Glass, composed Of
the younger boys. Seven innings
were pleyed an the score ran neck
and neck until the last, when the BIZ
BILE class won by score of IA to IL.
Star batters of the Bible Glass
were, T. S. Hull and c. E. Reed, while
Ed Kenney displayed no little of his
former skill as ball player in left
field McCray and Leonard were the
pitchers and W. 0. Bowman showed
no little ability behind the bat.
Following this was the. stick races
by the boys and girls, and also in
cluded some Of the grown-ups. Then
came the potato races by the smaller
boys and girls, which were very ex-
citing and interesting to all. Several
swings had been erected, and this
gave amusement to many all during
the afternoon.
The browning event of the occa-
sion was about six o'clock when it
was announced that supper would be
served, and those who were present
soon decided that the war was over,
and had left no traces whatever of
hard times, for there were many
basketsfull gathered up after feed
ing the multitude. An abundance of
ice cream was served as a climax to
the refreshments, and at about seven
thirty the grounds had been cleared,
except for the crumbs which were left
for the numerous friers to be seen
eagerly awaiting the departure of
the picnicers.
The school is highly indebted to
the college for the use Of the grounds
and the numerous courtesies extend
ed by Prof. Rankin, who was on
hands to see that we had pleasant
afternoon.
