he refuse to do anything until he could

war cross, in addition to the Victoria

No doubt this hero would have pre-

Those who are moralizing on his case
and sympathizing with him are vast
ing their efforts. They do not need to
worry about him. He will not be a
window washer very long. The same
spirit that enabled him to become a
hero in battle prompted him to start
work on the first thing he could get
to do and that spirit may be depended
upon to win distinction for him in
civil life just as it did in war.

THE NEW TRIAL

mn URDERS and murder trials with
lNI all the mysteries surrounding
them do not hold the sensation for the
reading public that they did in former
years, and 1t is Just as well that this
is SO. Today unusual prominence is
being given to several of these cases
in various parts Of the country. the
least Of which is not by any means the
trial of Harry s. New at Los Angeles.
II there has been one criticism of
our courts that appears to be justified,
1t Is tho long delay of the system we
follow in establishing the innocence or
guilt Of one accused Of crime. par
ticularly after all of the facts, often
times the confession Of the one charged
with crime. proves his guilt. These
endless delays have brought the court
system into unusual disreputs. In the
New case. Harry New murdered Miss
Frieda Lesser. his sweetheart. Later
he drove to the police station with the
body in his possession. gave himself
up to the police and confessed to the
crime.
Yet New is standing trial on the
charge Of first degree murder. Grouped
about him is a galaxy Of legal lights.
The trend of the testimony appears to
endeavor to prove that New was in
sane at the time he committed the
rash act. No doubt he was. A man
generally is. Would not the state and
the courts be saved great expense-an
expense tho people must bear-if, in
cases of this kind, admittance Of the
crime was taken as prima facie evidence
Of its commitment. leaving then the
only question to be settled, the sanity
of the accused? Why the long drawn
out sensational trial repulsive with its
details regarding the past lives Of the
parties involved? It is little wonder
that our court system comes under
constant criticism. Everyone believes
in the principle that an accused is
innocent until proven guilty and that
man has the right of trial, but the
entire proceeding seems useless where
voluntary confession of guilt has
been made.

FOOL ~ THE GRACE OF cop!"
(Rockv Mountain Newal

(HOcky MOUNTAIN NoW6.)
Karl Kautsky's story Of what led up
to the war Is occasioning excited COM
ment in Germany. Kautsky has made
use of official documents upon which
the former kaiser inscribed marginal
notes indicating his wishes in matters
of policy. It Is these notes that are
stirring tho German public and pro-
voking caustic comment from the Ger
man press.
Vorwaerts entities an editorial Fool
by the Grace Of God" and says:
HE who reads the marginal notes
can not for a moment remain in doubt
that Germany before the war was ruled
by q half-witted person. It Is quite
clear that under such a person Ger
many was bound to rush into the war
and lose that war;"
Thus the history of the Hohenzollern
ends in a FOOLS tragedy. Its hideous
comedy, which Is beyond the fantasy
of Shakespeare. reached its final height
in the telegram of the father to the
son. in which the crown prince was
forbidden to make lingo utterances. It
was the law of the monarch that the
all-powerful alone might be permitted
to indulge in the clowns business.
Count Won Reventlow says: ut was
simply outside the possibilities to con
duct foreign policy according to the
kaiser's marginal notes."
We hope tho effort to suppress the
book will not succeed. We are curl
GUS to see the marginal notes. The
insanity Of William Hohenzolle.>S has
been suspected for long. 1t seems to
be proved now to the satisfaction of
his former subjects-and that Is, per-
haps. q good thing.

THE KANSAS TEACHERS, DUTY
AND ALLEGIANCE.
(From Harvey's. Weekly,


The Kansas State Teachers associa-
ton has voted a resolution emphatic
ally opposing the organization of a I'M
ion of teachers for affiliation with Ia
Dor organizations. The Kansas teach
ers took the ground that the public
their enthusiastically has some rights
which those who accept its pay are
bound to respect. They refused to
form a union for affiliation with labor
organizations because they owed their
first allegiance to the parents of pu-
pills and could not be subjected to pos
sible sympathetic strike orders"
Excellent! And. by the same token.
the first allegiance Of those parents is
toward their teachers and their first
duty toward those teachers is to see
that they get decent pay. Not extrav-
agant pay. of course. Not such pay as
hodcarriers, bricklayers, stevedores, or
boy mule drivers in coal mines get.
These are among our privileged
classes. The teachers, the clergymen.
the skilled bookkeepers, the editors. the
writers, the expert bank clerks and
the like are of the plebeian order. They
are to take what they can get and be
thankful for it.
But, even then, they ought to get a
living wage regardless of the fact that
tney are not eternally moving ABOUT
being ground down" and starved"
The times are none the less hard for
these silent ones whose restraints of
self-respect and personal dignity pre-
vent them from making brawling.
bowling nuisances of themselves. 1t is
the unpleasant truth that these large
groups of professional and semi pro-
fessional men and women, on whom
falls the responsibility for the coun-
try's education, clear thinking and
moral guidance. are the worst suffer-
ers from the war and the wars after
math of staggering burdens Of living.
Their salaries and earnings have all
but stood stationary. while those OF
the profiteers, the war contractors and
the labor union exploiters have leaped
skyward. But they have not COM
planned. They cling to their old fash
toned notions of duty and allegiance.
as do the Kansas teachers. As a mat
ter of fact, this very loyalty of theirs,
the accomplishing dignity with which
they accept the hardships this orgie of
high prices for everything imposes on
them, ought to shout louder to the pub
lie conscience than does all the bawl-
ing uproar of the labor demagogues.
