The Little River news., 1920-06-16

The Republicans have named a ticket and adopted platform. The platform is principally an assault on the Wilson administration. but offers nothing specific in the way of constructive leg islation It is not a progressive plat form, In regard to the league and treaty plank which means nothing, or anything was adopted.e This was to compromise those factions who were either for it or against it. No one has denied that Harding. the candidate for president. and Coolidge. his running mate. are not clean men Harding is a Republican of the old school, stand pat, or reactionary. His ideas are those of Republicanism twenty years age. The old guard men are satisfied The Democrats have an opportunity to write a platform that means some thing. They have the opportunity to name a man who stands for progress The Republican voter has shown in the past eight years that he is not satis- fed with . reactiCcary policy. He has bolted once. Will he stand hitched now?

civic way there should be no complaint. A modern Babel a miscellaneous pop conglumerate of aliens who have not the high ideals Of population 1 ooted deeply into the soil Of American ideals, is worse than not to have grown at all. We have cause to be proud of the growth of our Southern, and parti- cularly or Arkansas cities and towns. They have grown, and in proof that the people have grown in idealism. We can point to no ccse of Bolshevism or
 rampant destructionists, who would tear down all that is best or kill the goose that laid the golden egg. The South has come back. it's people are the salt of the earth and the sanest section in the whole nation.

The pumps are in fine shape, re- ports the mayor. and the only trouble was loose, slipping belts at the light plant Manager Rowe cut the water off and held full tank for protection against possible fires until the power people could get a chance to take up some slack by cutting some perfectly good belts and taking up some slack.

Lords Day Alliance gentlemen. Who
have been so rightly ridiculed. ain to
concentrate in one day all he virtuous
actyitg Of the week, allowing the re-
mainder to be unadornea By godiy con-
duet
The greatest handicap religion OF all
churches has to contend with is the
sanctimonious hypocrisy SO often dsm-
onstrsted by men protesting sim lar
aims for the Observance Of nc sabbath
who, known by the almost proveroiai
name Of pillar Of the church, are
caught on Wednesday trimming their
fellow men, whereas Sunday always
inds them IN their accustomed pews.
Men without the blessing Of con-
tented faith point to examples Of .hir
sort. which. unfortunately. have not
been few in the past, as justiica ion
for their Indifference Or unbelief In
religion. 1t is hard for genuine
churchman to withstand these a,gu-
mentative attacks, supported, as they
are, with sensational examples. This
handicap, then, must be overcome con-
tinually throughout the churches work,
and it is very apparent that the pro
fessions of these Lords Day Alliance
gentlemen, whether they are sincere
or not, afford an excellent example OF
ridiculous intolerance, savoring of in
sincerity, which doubters can handily
point at.
Would that such destructive work as
this latest Sunday fanaticism could be
denied publicity and the good work
of true men in spreading the gospel OF
God could 60 on unembarrassed.

demns all advocates Of reorganiza-
ton as "disciples Of Won Tirpitz"-
they would "Prussianize" the navy!
Verify Mr.. Daniels is the greatest
expert in the naval annals of the
world! He is the sole defender Of
his country against imperialism.
We may be sure that Mr.. Harding
will appoint a Secretary who will
free the service from "Danielsism," E"
utilize the intelligence Of those who
are competent, and revitalize the
first line Of the nations defense.
The navy prefers civilian for
Secretary. 1t has fought an uphill
fight for eight years against disrupt
ing influences. 1t longs for the
steady hand Of broad minded
statesman. 1t will rally solidly be-
hind him in enthusiastic loyalty to

The Tragedy in Cork

The partial destruction Of Cork,
following murderous attack on the
Irish auxiliary police, marks new
and appalling turn In the situation
in Ireland. Martial law was pro-
claimed in the southern counties on
Saturday. Early in the evening the
Cork policemen were bombed, and
through the night there was con-
stant street fighting, under cover of
which fires were started in the heart
of the city.
The burning Of Cork was evident
ly in the nature Of reprisal. The
attack which preceded it was in the
nature of a revolt against military
authority. These two facts point to
the existence of state Of actual re-
bellion, which differs from the dis
orders Of the last few months, since
the latter occurred in districts under
the control of the civil government.
Under martial law the occupying
forces maintain order and guarantee
security as far as they are able to
do so. The tragedy in Cork indi-
Gates that martial law has not yet
been thoroughly enforced, or is being
enforced against a population part
of which has def1ed it. 1t is too
early to analyze the situation or to
determine at whose door responsible
ity for the shocking results of the
first day Of military administration
is to be laid. In a war Of passion
neither side is usually free from
blame.
The outside world would deplore
tho horrors Of q conflict in Ireland
turning into actual civil war. 1t
would view with despair situation,
darkened by hatred and violence,
out Of which there seemed to be no
exit but an unsparing appeal to
force.
New-York tribune., 1920-12-13
Accidents IN Industry

Inability to speak English and
mental inefficiency are assigned by
the Bureau of 4dustries and Immi-
grafton as the principal cause of the
years $1,000 increase in industrial
accidents. Seventy per cent of the
claimants under the workmen's COM
pensation law require interpreters to
represent them, while many Of them
are detectives and imbeciles.
The bureau blames the officials at
Ellis Island for permitting defec-
tives to enter and recommends a
board of physicians to intercept and
turn them back.
While conditions at Ellis Island do
not point to laXity SO much as to
lack Of facilities for handling the
present food Of immigrants coming,
the results are the same. But OBJ
viously the examination should be
made at the port Of embarkation in
stead Of at this end. That would
avoid the pitiful loss Of the hard
earned funds paid for transporta-
ton by hopeful undesirables or their
friends. Moreover, the saving here
through decrease in accidents and
pauper costs would be large.
The immigration laws do not re-
quire knowledge Of English, so the
only immediate remedy seems in get
ting foremen able to speak the
tongue Of. the men they boss, o1
perhaps labor pidgin English
might be developed with a vocabui
larry sufficient to include orders anc
warnings. AS things are the cost ir
human suffering and money cannot
be computed.

No Place for Second Rate Man

The future Of the schools Of the
state depends largely on the man
who succeeds DR.. Finley as head of
the State Department Of Education.
And the future of the state depends,
Of course, on the future Of the
schools
Already indications come Of an ef-
fort to make this highly important
ONCE a political plum. The names
mentioned thus far are those OF sec
ond-rate educators not conspicuous
for any grasp Of the business Of edu-
cation.
The Department Of Education initi-
ates legislation that has to do with
the schools, makes the rules which
local boards Of education and super
'ntendents must follow, prescribes
courses of study and requirements
for advancement. Indeed many edu-
Gators believe that it has more power
over the schools and their conduct
than it ought to have. These edu-
Gators insist that the system of re-
gents examinations, which are u ter
ror 10 teachers and nightmare 70
pupils, ought to be abolished, and
would be abolished if ii reasonable
degree of self~government were al
lowed local boards Of education.
While this may be open to argu-
Snent, tho fact remains that only g.
man who adds thorough training
to high executive ability should be
dAs>d ter this post. There has been
- much Indifference 10 the schools
