Much of the credit for the success Of
the Premier ball tossers, champions OF
the Indianapolis Amateur Baseball asso-
citation, who meet the Louisville city
champs in the first game Of the national
amateur championship series at Wash
ington park Saturday afternoon, is due
to Johnny Gaalema, captain and center
fielder of the outfit.
When the season opened Gaalema, a
veteran of the sandlot game, rounded to-
gether a combination of players and
started on a successful journey toward
the championship flag.
Besides running the team, Gaalema has
played a brilliant game in the field ana
with the stick. In fact. the Premlers
will rely on his club to bring In few
of their runs in the Saturday contest, and
his ..35S percentage for the season shows
that he can step in and get his ciouts on
the best of the amaJeur pitchers.

EXCEEDED HIS AUTHORITY.

1t was, says the London National Review, in
substance, incumbent on the president while in
Europe to explain to the conference at Paris
what limitations the constitution laid upon his
treaty making powers. He should have told
Europe that his authority went no further than
to take home and submit to the senate the treaty
he was helping to make. Instead of this, how
ever, he did all that he could to lead Europe to
understand that anything that he agreed to
would go, to use forceful phrase. He persisted
in this position in spite of the remonstrance
signed by four-ninths of the senator's, warning
Europe against assuming that the senate was
an idle fifth wheel in our government; and in
spite of the fact that in the election two months
before the American people by majority of
over million denied his request 30 be made
their "unembarrassed spokesman in the mat
ter Of peace.
Put in plain words, the president exceeded
his authority and instructions and finds himself
now in the position of an agent of an industrial
concern who arranged to sell the plant or make
some other contract the directors of the COM
pany never contemplated. His action has been
and if the outcome is humiliating to
him, he has only himself to blame.
Cardinal Gibbons puts it tersely in speaking
of the viewpoint of the new organization, the
United Americans, of which he is an official
He says: eff the members Of the red organ
izations don't like this country, let them go
home If they do not go, we shall have to send
them there. They come here to become citi-
zens, not to be dictators We cannot let them
become dictators.' There is just one query
that suggests itself. How many of the radicals
who arc making trouble came here to become
citizens? Did not the ring leaders in seditious
work come here for the purpose of becoming

WARNING AGAINST A DANGER.

The reported local demand for what are call
ed ouija boards and planchettes, which far ex-
ceeds the supply, makes pertinent the advice to
let such paraphernalia severely alone. Some
people can play with them without serious re-
suits, but for others it means disaster, mental
wreck. Speaking generally, the people who
can fool with such devices without Ill effect are
those who get little but jumbled nonsense out of
them OF nothing worth while. The sufferers
from their use are all among the persons who
think they get something of value from them.
If they do, they are likely to lose vastly more
than they can gain.
1t would be proftless to attempt to explain
their workings and their dangers further than
to say that their effect upon the subliminal or
subconscous mind amounts often to hypnotism
in a terribly perilous and distressing form. The
very few psychiatrists Iii the country who know
anything about the matter are impressive IN
their warnings against it. The mass of medical
men are as ignorant of the subject as the people
who may seek their advice. But the result is
often condition which hospitals for the insane
classify as hopeless.
There is phenomenal craze in the world to-
day, accentuated by the war, to dabble IN what
some people name black magic. It's earlier
manifestation during the last twenty years has
been a mass of literature about 'yoga' prac-
tees and the like Whatever experts or adopts
may do with these, the consensus Of people who
know is that they are frightfully dangerous to
votaries who are half Informed. They play
with dynamite when they touch them. Other
variants of practices of this nature are voodoo-
ism, witchcraft, demonology, evocatlon and
other developments of animism of which print
tive ignorant races made so much. Sensible
people will be warned and leave such things
alone People too wise in their own conceit to
be advised probably will go their own way.

ROCKEFELLER CHEERFUL GIvER.

Criticized as John D. Rockefeller has been
through much of his life and despatched with
abuse, it is not impossible that he may die IN
tile odor Of sanctity, to speak, and generally
regretted by the mass of his fellow men. His
benefactions now total four hundred and fifty
millions, and this is the biggest sum which any
man has ever given to promote the general good.
Quarrel as we may with system or civiliza-
ton under which such accumulations are pos
sible, it must be admitted that the oil king is
making as proper use of his vast wealth as any
one probably could. Aside from the fact that
the great "octopus'' is credited with having
strangled the competition of independent con-
Germs in the earlier years of its existence, it
cannot be truly charged with serious shortcom-
ings or sins. It has cheapened oil and brought
it within the reach of the poorest citizen; and
but for the gasoline it was prepared to furnish
by the million gallons the war could hardly have
been won
Viewing the matter dspassionately, it will
be seen that Mr. Rockefeller has done and is do
ing for the American people as whole precisely
what most of US habitually do for our families
and ourselves. We often curtail our smaller
expenditures and save up our dollars and halves
until they suffice to buy something more costly
for which we have need. Similarly Mr. Rookie
Teller is a sort of child s savings bank for us
in which our pennies are dropped and boarded to
be finally given back to US in some permanent
and highly desirable form All of US have con-
tributed to his fortune have put pennies, dimes
and short bits into his keeping. Had we not
done so, we should have spent them, frittered
them probably we usually do, and they would
never have been collected in magnificent dona-
tions for the public good. Usually only the sur
plus above citizens need is expended in char
ity. We give what we can spare and have no
pressing use for When a surplus gets vast be-
yond all the uses to which its possessor can put
it, he has nothing to do but to give it away and
he naturally seeks to dispose Of it in some way
that will rebound to his credit and advance the
common good. Thus it is really better for the
people that some one man should have an I'm.
spendably huge fortune of billion than that if
should be parceed out among a thousand men.
And there is another advantage in such ire
mendous concentration Of wealth. It's posses
The daily Gate City and constitution-Democrat. (Keokuk, Iowa) 1916-1922, 1920-01-09

sor is financially beyond our envy and IN class
by himself. The people we poor humans are
most inclined to envy are those whose fortunes
do not vastly surpass our own, but are OF such
size as we would know just what to do with
Probably no one ever lies awake nights longing
for a billion dollars, though some OF us may
sometimes feel bit resentful that destiny did
not so deal the cards as to give US an inconsid-
cradle fraction of that amount. We can all OF
us therefore wish this noted plutocrat more
years added to his life and trust that his diges-
ton, which is said to be very poor, will enable
him to assimilate boiled eggs and other simple
nutriment without gastric disorder and distress.

TODAY'S BIT OF VERSE
A WINTER EVENING.

At night outside my window is rush and whir OF wings
IL the and hedges and all insensate things
Were struggling their sumber reach the time that
brings
The glamour and the wonder and the gladness OF new
Springs.
The mystic sounds of nighttime the creak Of homeward
carts,
The whisng of a droyer the beat of hidden hearts.
The birthcry of babe who lfe's journey starts
The sobs lonely loved soul departs
...
The glow OF nighttime with doors and win
dows tight
dressing gown and slippers the old dog well In sight,
book the reside-oh comfort and delight!
Indeed what peaceful than shun Winter night?
"
yet outside my window to whr of wings,
AS if to stir my being with desire for other things
With yearning the promise that pulsing brings
The enchantmen and the rapture the ulhment of new
Springs
