"A World Rpmakiuq or Peace Finance

"A World Remakiug. or Peace Finance.
BY Clarence W. Barron. New York
City; Harper 4 Brothers. Price, VI %
In a number of interesting letters from
| Europe, based upon his observations oi
actual conditions and needs, MIR Barron
holds that the key-vord to the great
problems of reconstruction is-money He
shows the dramatic role PLAYED by finance,
from vast expenditures IN propaganda to
subtle manipulation in International credit
shows how our problems, from tho Rus
slan situation TO International competition
IN shoes and machinery, are problems OF
finance
Mr.. Barron emphasizes the leading part
our country Is bound To take IN this per-
. formance Of the mighty task of world
reconstruction. Our debt Is but pr cent
of our national wealth The debts of
Great Britain, France, and other war-torn
European nations are 80 per cent OF the
national wealth We are, therefore, IN
vastly the better financial situation.
The hope of the world and it's civfalza-
tnon, Mr. Barron says, now rests upon
thesc United States To educate her
native born and foreign elements as TO
tho United States Constitution, Its mean
ing and representative government and its
true democracy, AS contrasted with mo-
nocracy, is the plain duty of the hour.
TO this end he would have our Con-
stitution made text book would have
all our people instructed in its language
and intent Would have all questions of
wages and employment, all matters Of
business, oil social and economic problems
considered and solved in accordance with
its high principles.

WHAT HITCHCOCK DOES TO BRYAN

Accusing Senator Hitchcock of belong
ing TO the liquor interests MIR. Bryan
presents bill of particulars that is more
than conclusive. "IIc tried to prevent
my gong to the Baltimore Convention
eight years ago. MIR Bryan says: che
did prevent my going TO the last convention
in ST Louis, and he is now against my
going TO the coming convention in San
Francisco.
What further proof is needed? In view
of the evidence, II rs the Judgment of the
court that Senator Hitchcock is guilty
of something worse than belonging TO the
liquor interests. AS no brewer or distialer
could possibly do more in tho way OF
preventing MIR. Bryan's disinterested
activities, IL must be that the Senator is
himself brewer or distiIler, or per
chance a saloon-keper. At any rate, a
man whose ono dcvilish aim IN life rs TO
keep William ]. Bryan out Of Democratic
conventions, especially when he IS under
salary to rough-house them, must be an
abandoned character.-New York World.

The New berry Conviction.

To those who followed the evidence in
the trial of Senator Nowberry Of Michigan
indicted for violation OF the Federal law
regulating expenditures Of candidates
for Federal Office, which occupied eight
weeks in the Federal court at Grand
Rapids. the verdict Of. guilty. as to New
berry and sixteen of the others indicted
with him, rendered Saturday afternoon,
occasioned no surprise. There was sn un-
challenged and thoroughly sustained
story. throughout the testimony, Of the
most outrageous expenditure of money
for the purpose of influencing voters at
the election
In the face of such testimony, the mar
gin of 7.5S. bv which Newberry was re-
turned as elected over Henry Ford, in
total poll of about 450, 900 votes, stands as
ample evidence ofthc fraudulent character
of his title to the seat in the United States
Senate he now holds. In Consequence OF
the conviction. Newberry and the others
we're sentenced to fines of $4,000 each
and imprisonment fer two years. The
court allowed them ninety days in which
to take an appeal, and there is no doubt
the opportunity to further fight the case
will be taken.
Meanwhile, with audacious effrontery,
Ncwberry announces that he will retain his
purchased seat in the Senate, although as
TO active participation in its business he
will be guided by the advice OF his TEL
lows. That his Republican colleagues
will support him in his position is certain,
as the Senate is Republican by two ma
jority only. and he cannot be spared. For
the same reason it is doubtful if Henry
Fords contest of Newberry's election,
now before a Senate committee, Will
make any impression on the partisan
majority, Notwithstanding the startling
character Of the evidence as to corrup-
tion brought out during the trial.
But, despite the hardihood of Newberry
and his partisan colleagues, there is no
doubt much good will come from this IN
teresting trial and this just verdict of
conviction. IT is notice 20 the country
that wealthy corruptors Of elections can
no longer pursue their despicablc and
debauching business with the compla-
cency and disregard of decency they have
DISPLAYED heretofore Coming at this
time. on the eve OF great
national political campaign, the influence
of the Newberry conviction for coed will
be enormous.

SOMEBODY'S CHILDREN
ARE ALWAYS NEAR

AXE ALWAfS NEAH
Somebody's children are always near
Ready To romp all our cares away.
Gay little voices are ringing clear,
Hearts and hands eager to share their
play.
None for An hour need childlsss be,
Graybeards turn from your griefs awhile
Children are waiting for yUl and me-
To go with them TO the land Of smile.
Soldiers are marching To fife and drum,
Queens, whose crowns arc OF sunklased
curls,
Up to our lonely thresholds como,
Willing TO be our boys, and girls.
We, who cherish their laughter sweet,
May turn If we will from our Loneliness
And hear the patter NJ little feet
And borrow the touch OF child's carers.
Always the children are waiting near,
Glad TO welcome us out 10 play:
Never need mother and father fear
That thew shall come to childless day
Though the years grow lonely and sad
and long,
And out in the world must our babies 60,
There shall always be laughter and mirth
and song.
And trumpet and drum for us all 10
know.
And what if these babies are not our own,
We may play with them and may love
them, too,
We may hear in their laughter the laughter
flown
And claim the gladness that once We
knew.
Oh, whether were old or whether ve're
sad.
Or whther we've come TO life's last short
mile,
We can borrow from somebody's girl or
lad
An hour of Joy in the land of smile.

EVIDENCE AGAINST

Montesano, Wash.-Tbe evidence on
which the prosecution will attempt to
prove the guilt Of the II defendants
accused of murder in connection with
the Armlstlce day shooting at Cen
tralia was outlined by Herman Allen,
prosecuting attorney of Lewis county,
in his opening statement to the jury
That the tragedy YVES the frutlon
of a conspiracy laid weeks in advance
and that the firing upon the ex-service
men was not in selfdefense, but was
premedtated. murderous assault, IL
what the state has declared it will
produce many witnesses TO substan-
tate.
The plea of the defendants, II has
been announced, is self-delense. An
effort will be made to show that
members of the American Legion
rushed" the |. w. w. hall in Cen.
tralia before the radicals fired a shot,
The state, in its opening outlines of
the prosecutions case, denied this and
declared that the veterans in the
parade were in line and marking time
when rifle bullets thudded into the
bodies of Grimm and other comrades.
If all witnesses named by the state
and by the defense actually are called
to testify, the period of the trial will
stretch away beyond prophecy. Pres
ent estimates are that the case will
not go to the jury within six weeks.
and possibly not for two months. The
state has named 26O witnesses while
the defense has stated that 1t will
summon more than 100.

TREATY AGAIN is
BEFORE SENATE
Peace Pact Brought up For Con-
sideration Monday; Bitter
Fight Forecast.

Washington. The peace treaty,
which has lain in parliamentary pi-
geonhole since November 49, while a
basis Tor it's ratification was lnsue-
eessfully sought in private negotia-
tons, was brought formally before the
senate again Monday
Although prompt agreement is ex-
peeted generally on many of the minor
points at issue. a long and bitter coli
test is forecast over article 10 and per
haps few other treaty provisions.
The leaders on both sides profess to
see some hope OF ratification, bat other
senators believe the deadlock certain
10 continue until the controversy has
been fought out in the presidential
campaign,
Besides the outstanding issues of
the treaty fight the most prominent
subject Of discussion among senators
was the letter OF President Wilson
laid before the democratic conference
aud made public by Senator Hitchcock.
The presidents renewed declaration OF
opposition TO some of the language Of
the republican reservations were inter
preted in different ways.
Some declared the letter an unconl-
promising reiteration OF the stand TAX
en- by the president on the eve of the
November ratification vote and assert
cd that its publication had widened the
breach between the democratic and re-
publican forces. Others, protesting TO
zee new evidences OF concession In the
presidents words, predicted an oppo.
site effect.
Although the presidents letter was
written before publication OF the state
ment of viscount Grey regarding res
ervations, in some quarters it was sue-
gested that the letter would not have
been permitted to become public II the
British statesmen's views had resulted
in any change in the presidents posi-,
ton.
