Our Meaning Wa. Missed

An editorial in The Republican the other day, commenting patriotic statement by Mr. McAdco, urging the duty of all Americans cooperate for the restoration of the country normal basis appears to have been misunderstood by some of our readers to the following paragraph:
 Any who fails in the responsibility which rests him is an American.' We have been told that readers understood this to mean that any failing in support of the administra- ton of MT. Harding will not American and that they difference between such partisan declaration and the call issued two years ago. previous to the congressional elections to send only Democrats to congress- that his personal ship might be given support.
 It was farthest from purpose to give our words meaning that might be construed to be ad- vice for unquestioning support of a Republican ad- ministration. We had intended only elaborate on what MT. McAdoo has said. as the duty of all Americans in the present crisis.
 Democrats in congress will owe no loyalty to Mr. Harding Republican They will owe nothing to him the leader of party but they Republicans we'll will the country the duty of co-opera tion for its we'll being But neither Democrats nor Republicans in this stage if they are patriotic will try to strengthen their respective parties at the e of healthful constructive legislation for the whole country It is far important to build up the nation than it is to strengthen either of the two parties.
 If the former work is gone about periodically and conscientously it will matter little what may be the politics of the workers It will be long time-two years before the nation will again be called upon to vote. We expect then that the Democrats will support Democratic candidates for congress, for there are certain policies almost settled regarded principles which distinguish the two parties

It will almost have official recognition rection of Judge Lands We have doubt that there will be baseball legislation protection the game which until recently it seemed not need and when the end came found to be protected only by the general laws against conspiracy.
 Under the reorganization too, we believe baseball will attract a somewhat different class of players it's responsibility will be increased. In the beginning professional baseball largely from the sand lots. Many foremost players been hoodlums in youth and hoodlumism quite cffaced some of them. But they had learned the game from the ground and had learned it well. good many college players, and some of the best, brought in but until in recent years the hoodlum element predominant.
 We not making a class distinction. There hoodlums in college as well as the sandlots and some of the college hoodlums never get over it. hoodlum sons of the rich and poor alike congregate the sandlots. They learn baseball there they from another things that they ought not know and become organization against disci- plne and decency.
 The sandIots will continue to be breeding ground for professional baseball but under the regime we think the college campus and the high school grounds will be prolific fields than they have been in the past.

ual voter has intelligence and good judgment. The character of immi- grafton is therefore everything. If we admit the hordes of aliens who have not the intelligence to grasp the idea of democracy, and if we neglect to teach them even the language of their new country, we can scarcely hope for that intelligent body of public opinion which Is the only hope of success for a democratic government.
 Undoubtedly during the first 12 or 13 years of this century we did admit horde of aliens who were o- low type. both racially and culturally, and VIC did allow them to collect in great l masses of undiluted foreignness, and speaking foreign languages, reading foreign papers and following foreTs customs
 The war checked this inflow of in diestible humanity. Now it has start ed again. What are we going to do about it2
 The trouble is that our immigration legislation. like that on so many other subjects, is based. not on scientific study of the facts, but on compromise between various conflicting interests. i Perhaps the intelligent way to solve the problem would be to appoint commission of the highest scientlflc character to study the question and frame legislation. We had an elaDo- rate congressional investigation of the subject once, and it reached the as- tcnishing conclusion that it did not matter much what type of man was admitted, because as soon as he began to breathe the free and puissant ar Of America he became an American, even the shape of his head changing!
 Forces Involved
 Legislation based on such conctu- sions as that will not help mucn, Nei- ther do the conclusions nave nucn oo do with the legislation. Labor wants immigration restricted, because lmmi- grafton means cheap competition Tor labor The eastern manufacturing lh- terests want immigration unrestr1cted for the same reason. The lar west wants immigration restricted in any way that will keep the erientais out and the west in general is lh laEoTsA% keeping America for Americans. Inese, various forces will fight it ont again as they have before. In the house, Ia bor and the west have enough influSncs to frame legislation somewhat reStrAS- tive. but in the senate big business holds the club and the house bill is very likely to be 'liberalized."
 At present the major pTopieIn VI iA-
 migration is largely obscured by the anarchist scare The principal bills : now before the committee are taken up largely with paths and declarations
 designed to make the intending immt-
 grant swear by the Bible and the bones
 of his ancestors that he does not in- tend to put a bomb under the attorney

 The fact that a man imbued with any L. s not hesitate to perjure himself seems l. not to have occurred to the honorabis = committeeman.

 most exclusively in a frenzied hunt Tor > that needle, while the great and i'm al portant task of assorting the human I3 imports and choosing from them the all best racial and cultural elements is al O. most wholly neglected.
