Press Comment
Degrading a Nation.


(From the New York Wor.d)
''The republican party has turned
its back on its own principles of 1915
and 1918" Thus writes the venerable
Charles w. Eliot in the current issue
Of the Atlantic Monthly
DR.. Eliot adds by way of further
comment: This deplorable change Of
front is a deep modification ana dis
tress to all patriotic Americans. rsrub-
lican or democrat and particularly to
those who remember the political
ideals which the republican parry was
founded to contend for and which 1t
led to glorious victories
As if to emphasize DIR. Eliot's caus-
tic criticism, Senator Harding said in
his speech at Wheeling:
Il was not present when the senate
passed the war resolution, but know
what it conveyed what it means. and
we did not go to war to make the world
safe for democracy. We did not 60 to
war even for humanitys sake
For the rest, Senator Harding re-
fuses to concede that our dead died
for any noble and inspiring principle.
He refuses to admit that the American
people had any exaltation of spl- :;
that they regarded the war as an ir-
repressible conflict between freedom
and autocracy, between the doctrine
of right and the doctrine of might. TO
the republican candidate it was just
a row over some ships and submarines
and disputed Interpretation OF the
trading status of neutrals.
If Senator Harding is right in his es
innate of the motives of the American
people, the war was a needless war.
Every life that was lost was wasted
and every dollar that was spent vas
wasted. We could have easily bargain
ed with Germany for protectior. Both
sides had violated American rghts CT
the high seas, and if nothing ndtttrcd
except the materialistic aspect Of the
case, Germany had more to offer THAI

crop is reported to be larger than
usual this year and the growers are

their early potatoes, although Irish
potatoes from Maine and other north

On several occasions w lave com :
mented on the plan PROPOSED TO cs-
tablish a school for teaching the print
ing trades in connection win the Mont
verde Industrial School in Lake conn
tv. and we have been glad to bccst
along this admirable projeIt.
we now learn that the executive
committee having the project in charge
is 10 hold a meeting Saturday Of this
week to complete arrangements Tor
the erection of the building at Mont
verde and the installation of the limo
TYNE machines, presses and printing
material that will be used for the IN
gtruction and to print the Business
Printer. the official organ of the print
ing trades in this section.
Arthur Greene, who has been most
active in developing this project, in
forms us that something over 100000
in money and materials have been
gathered for the school and it is ex-
pected that this amount will be in
creased to $4,000 before the first of
the year. The Mergenthaler Linotype
company and other printing supply
houses have been most liberal in the
matter and a number of newspapers
of the state have offered presses and
materials, where larger machinery
have replaced them at prices away be-
low cost.
In other words, the publishers and
printers of Florida and the South are
more than anxious to see this school
established, as it will provide young
men and women to fill the positions
that are now difficult and that are be-
coming more difficult to fill every year.
The Montverde Industrial School has
been doing the best kind Of work for
several years in fitting young people
for various lines of industry and If
this printing crafts school can be in
augurated soon it viii be of great ben
eft to the printing trades.
The plan of the school. whereby all
pupils are given an opportunity 10
earn their tuition and board while re-
ceiving instruction. has proved itself
and the best feature of the institution
is that each pupil must work enough
to pay at least half of his or her ex-
penses while going through the school
This results in their securing a prac-
teal education and makes them self
supporting and more capable of filling
positions satisfactorily after they
leave the school. Many of the wealthy

WASHINGTON, Feb. 10:-The
final struggle for the ratification Of
the peace treaty will begin today
when the document is reported back
to the senate with the Lodge amend-
ments. While it Is believed here
that the pact will be ratified within
the next two weeks, 1t is realized that
bitter fight is ahead and that some
changes from the present plans will
be necessitated.
While Senator Lodge processes 10
remain firm for his amendments as
they stand, there Is a genera hope,
amounting almost to q belief, that,
both sides will give way to some exc
tent and that the reservations as now
demanded by the Republican leader
will be modified.
Among the mild reservahonists
Senators Lenroot and Kellogg are at
work upon substitute reservations
which they hope will meet the views
of a sufficient number of senators to
be adoped and will end in ratifica-
ton. The aim OF their work is to
alter the Lodge reservations on the
question of plural voting and on the
Monroe doctrine.
When this Is done Mr.. Lodge viii
offer notifications to some of the
reservations, beginning with vital
changes in the preamble. Mr. Hitch-
cock will counter with compromise
