PEACE, AND THERE IS NO PEACE.

Exchange Of 7atihcations of the Versailles
treaty At Paris yesterday marks the formal end.
ing Of the war between Germany and other sig
natories, the United States being the only one
of the big FIVE" not represented at or taking
part in the ceremony.
This anomalous situation is the direct result
Of the course pursued by the president Of the
United States, who attended the conference at
Paris, where the treaty was negotiated. 1t
does not flow from the terms on which Ger
many has made settlement. Those are accept
able, even the obnoxious arrangement whereby
Japan secures large Chinese province having
been conceded that war might cease. But Mr..
Wilson had another idea in view when he went
to the peace conference and he imbedded in
the document covenant for a league OF ma
tons, containing provisions distasteful to a
large number Of his countrymen To use his
own phrase, he tied the treaty and the covenant
together so that the one could not be ratified
without the other.
Amply warned that his plan would not re-
ceive the sanction of the senate Mr. Wilson
went ahead, and since returning home has IN
sisted on having his way. The net result of
this is that the United States was not among
the nations exchanging notifications with Ger4
many.
The affairs of Europe are once more in the
hands of Europeans, where they ought to be.
And, what is more important American affairs
are in control of Americans. We may manage
our internal and external relations for the fu-
ture as we have in the past, with an eye to the
safety of our institutions. Our national ideals
and altrusm have suffered nothing in moral or
material importance because of the develop
ment, If any impression has been created
abroad, it is, that Americans are not ready to
give over any part Of their independence.
What will come from the situation will de-
velop as days pass. If the presidents plan to
postpone the decision until after March A. 1921
prevails, the country can abide the issue 1t
will be better to wait even that long and be
safe than to engage in an enterprise from which
we might have to withdraw because of its un-
wisdom -

Rye, Bourbon, or Whisky"

Evidently the dear old London Times has
never come across Colonel Robert G. Inger-
soils apostrophe to com lkker.' Had Lord
Northcliffe or any of his editors ever visuazed
the picture of waving fields of ripened grain,
the mellow sunshine poured round it. the
drowsy air filled with music of laughing girls
and tinkng waters the sweet content of work
we'll done and guerdon earned-all discovered
by the colonel in bottle of bourbon, he would
never be guilty of the onslaughts we are panied
to note in his great paper.
But there it is, the pussyfooter out-footing
the pussyfoot. Britons are warned against the
insidious American redevc, now flooding the
bars and taproons of the tight little island.

evokes riots, calleth forth spirits from the
vastly deep, sends the imbiber reeling- help

to the gills and doomed to awake in the cold
gray day (Which over there outasts the dawn

The memory of bourbon and rye will long
dwell in the minds of some who are now deprived
of their presence. and who will be inclined to
question the taste of those blessed islanders
who still may wet their whistles, soak their

Answer the Census Questions.

Census enumerators report their work de-
layed and interfered with because some people
decline to make response to the questions asked
1t is due, very likely TO misapprehension, the
citizens thinking the government is looking for
information that may be put TO some sinister
use. This is entirely mistaken. The inquiries
made for the purpose of the census have no per-
sonal application whatsoever. Some of them
may be odd, or even appear impertinent, yet
they are all intended to provide a general
knowledge of certain conditions, resting on an
accurate basis Information so obtained is kept
sacredly private by the census Office, coming
forth only in tabulated and classified form, Civ
ing figures that may be used as data for va
riety of purposes but involving nothing Of in
dividual inconvenience, discomfort or disgrace.
Failure to answer the questions promptly and
properly only serves to detract from the value
of the work by rendering it inaccurate. Give
the census man "the dope" and you will be
helping the country to that extent

Marrying on $l25 a Month.

An offer of prize for the best essay on
Marrying on $l25 Month" ought to bring out
some interesting information. The success of
such venture depends on one thing. If the
parties involved are content to live on Sl25 a
month until they can do better they will pull
through. They will not be able to carry on at
the rate of $3.50 month, however, and in these
days when mechanics are asking $40 day and
moving picture operators in Chicago are shying
at $63 week, SIPS month will not provide
much in the way of luxury. 1t is enough for
tive to live plainly on, even in Omaha, and lots
of folks are doing it, some even less. Young
folks who have the spirit that used to lead the
bride and groom into the deep woods, with a
sharp axe. and dependable rifle, there to erect
homestead, can get along on $50 week, but
they will not drive an automobile, nor hire a
maid, nor do lot of things like that, And their
comparative poverty will not deprive them of
all the comforts and pleasures of life, for they
can find in their home and their own society a
JOY that does not exist elsewhere, and which is
above price

Memorial COTTAGES

The number of lives the war took has not
been adequately reckoned. The number of fam
lilies it broke up is likewise uncounted. Yet
right after it we have greater shortage of
housing than ever There is interest in this
connection in letter to the London Spectator,
evidently from one of the sufferers of the war.
1t contains suggestion which may or may not
be new in this country.
The writer calls attention to an article in
the London Chronicle telling of the building of
120 cottages for ex-service men in Westmore-
land, called war memorial cottages 1t is not
clear to him whether these were built by public
or private funds, but never mind that. Would
it be possible" he asks 'for individuals to do
likewise? What more practical memorial of
any fallen hero than to provide home for a
disabled soldier or sailor, or for his widow and
childreni"
Though our war widows and orphans and
our disabled soldiers are few compared with the
losses OF Great Britain, we have need enough for
more houses. and the memorial cottage idea is
not bad one.-Hartford Times
