ROMAN RESTRICTIONS

ROME-Rome amuses herself like other capitals, in the intervals between the passing of one restricting decree and another. A decree preventing the sale of cakes has just been passed. Statistics show that an average of 1, ,000 pastries daily were consumed in each of the big cafes and teashops of the town.
 There are rumors of another decree preventing the use of motor cars Of over 30 horse power over the week end and in the evenings after p. m. So patrons of theater stalls and boxes will have to take the humble train or cab And there are no fewer than 24 thea : ters in Rome and 40 motion picture houses.

The 0ne-Suit Rule in Russia.

Soviet tyranny takes new form now
in the "one-suit" rule which, according
to reports from Finland received at the
State Department, is being applied
throughout Russia. Under this rule
no person is permitted to have more
than one suit Of clothes and one pair
of shoes. and all surplus is being taken
TO supply the bolshevik army. The
troops. according to all accounts, are
in a bad way for clothing. When the
order, which included food and other
supplies, was promulgated the peas.
ants and workingmen insisted that the
homes Of officers and commissars
should be searched first, and it is re.
ported that this house-to-house requi
sition began September 80. This dis
closes the fact that there is, in truth
an aristocracy in Russia, notwithstand
ing the Wanted democratic principles
upon which the soviet Is based. Ac
cording to the new standard set up by
this rule, any person who has more
than one suit Of clothes win be bour
geoisie, and that is anathema in the
eyes Of the Russian people Of today.
1t would be interesting to know Of
the full. effect upon the Russian army
of this method Of supplying clothes

Memorial Waters.

American ingenuity is never ap-
piled more strikingly than in the mat
ter of providing appropriate and dra-
matte settings for ceremonial events.
The people Of this country seem to
have a particular genius for this sort
of thing. The golden spike that was
the last to be driven in the great
transcontinental railway was one of
these items. The caravels that sailed
from Spain to Chicago for the open
ing of the worlds fair added to the
records. The list OF such incidents is
long. The most recent combination
of sentiment and utility is Just re-
ported from Chicago, where new
roadway dedicated to the memory Of
Theodore Roosevelt is about to be
completed between the city and the
suburb of Wheaton. The dedication
exercises will take place on Saturday,
when the last foot of the road viii be
laid, and on that occasion the final
batch of cement will be mixed with
water brought from the wen at Saga
more Hill. which was used by Theo-
dore Roosevelt.
No one can accuse the American
people Of being unsentimental SO long
as they engage in such manifestations.
And these sentimental episodes have
their value. In this particular case a
tradition will probably cling to that
roadway and particularly to that last
foot, and in years to come as that
point in the road is passed it will
be remembered and perhaps remarked
by those crossing it that the cement
beneath was mixed with water from
the Roosevelt well-the well from
which T. r. used to drink.

Wandered. Thus the red forces will
be CARRIED in the cast-offs, and 1t Is
rather hard to see how morale can be
maintained In an army costumed In
the rags Of the civilian population.
Jealousy and suspicion are plainly
rife in Russia. There is want. and
there is fear. The bolshevik expert
ment has failed. Lenfn may manage
to continue his rule for time through
tyrannical domination. But he can
not transform humanity. He cannot

with the people happy and contented
and prosperous, the industries thriving,
the farms productive and the govern
ment established in peaceful relations
with it's neighbors, bolshevis,n might
have spread into other lands. But
save for very few disconnected ex-
trenists and radicals the soviet propa-
ganda has gained no adherents out
side of Russia. The people of the
world beyond have seen how badly the
has gone and what dis
tress and what injustice have been
caused by it. Save for sporadic out
breaks which may cause disruption
and perhaps slaughter, there is no rea-
son to fear an overturning Of polit-
ical institutions, in consequence OF
Russian radicalism.

On the Jeb.

President MiIlerand starts well. Re-
ports show that he is already shaking
down into hard worker. He has
set out to master the details of his
Office. Through the press he is getting
into intimate touch with the public.
Newspaper correspondents find him &C.

A Gift to the People.

During the war the people Of this
country gave generously Of their
means to different agencies for 'wel-
fare work" among the soldiers and
sailors. One of these agencies was
the Knights Of Columbus, which car
ried on a most helpful work, both in
this country and in France. At the
close Of the war a surplus had &C.
cumulated, and it was part of this
surplus that the organization the other
day at Chicago voted to apply to the
purpose Of memorial building to be
erected in this city in the name of
the American Legion as a tribute to
the war heroes of America.
Thus the funds given by the people
of the country to the Knights of Co.
lumbus and not required in their war
work will be in a sense returned in
part to the people. For this great
building viii serve the people OF the
whole country by providing here at
the capital a means for public assem-
blages and conventions, available to
all organizations Of a national and
patriotic character. It will be visited
by all who come to Washington. It
will be a constant inspiration to the
American people.
Washington is the peoples city, the
city of all Americans. It is far more
than municipality; it is a national

to the interest of the citizens of all
the states. While the war interrupted

Night Riding.

"Night riders" are now busy In
parts Of the south in an effort to force
the price Of cotton UP. They tried
this sort of thing in Kentucky some
years ago as a means of boosting the
price of tobacco. The methods are
the same now as then. Gangs OF
men ride about the country after dark
usually masked. and warn planters
that if they harvest and market their
crops they will be visited" and their
property destroyed. A planter who
ignores this warning is usually wis
tied" and suffers heavy loss. In South
Carolina and Alabama at present the
night riders are burning cotton gins
and even the stores Of merchants. Al
ready heavy losses have been inflicted
in those states.
This is one of the worst tyrann1es
ever perpetrated. It is Furthermore
perfectly futile method Of price fixing.
Utterly opposed to all fairness and the
economic laws, it seeks by destruction
to affect the general market rates. In
the kentucky case the work OF the
night riders had only momentary eff
feet upon the tobacco prices, and the
operations now in progress in Alabama
and South Carolina will probably not
result in any upward tendency in the
cotton rates.
This form OF lawlessness defeats it.
self. It creates enmities and leads to
reprisals. The community in which
it is practiced must soon organize for
protection and the might riders" are
invariably beaten. While there may
be a pretense at concealment Of iden-
tity, the individuals soon become
known, just as in a lynching mob those
who lead and often those who follow
are identified. In some cases in the
night riding work there is no attempt
at disguise. Yet prosecutions have
heretofore been rare owing to the re-
luctance Of planters to give evidence
even when they are perfectly aware
Of the identity Of their visitors" In
time the might riders" are treated to
a dose of their own medicine.

His Second Tour.

ceptions were all he could desire. Mr..
Harding is on his way to fill engage
ments in Iowa, Nebraska, Missouri and
Oklahoma. His receptions there also
will crafty him. The people Of that
section turned out in great numbers
to greet Gov. Cox, and they will be
certain to pay the same compliment
to Mr.. Harding. 4 presidential candi-
date is a drawing card of the first

Comparisons, in point Of numbers
appearing and enthusiasm exhibited,
may be drawn between the Cox recep-
tons and the Harding receptions. But,
whatever they may show. they will
not be safe guides to the election re-
suit. Mr.. Bryan, from large expert
ence, can testify that huzzas and
handclasps are not always translated
or translatable into ballots. The peo-
pie do not always vote as they shout.
Mr.. Harding has started on this

ticket. Certainly not. Neither, we

Why bolt? What would any bitter
ender gain by contributing by bolt or
by any other step to the election Of
Gov. Cox? The bitter-enders, as their
name indicates, are, up to the hilt,
against the league. If elected, Gov.
Cox will use all the power Of the
presidency toward putting the coun-
try into the league as negotiated by
President Wilson.
The Borah incident is reminder
that a warm campaign has reached
the red-hot stage. Everything is
searched for campaign material. and
everything found-much or little, i'm
portant or unimportant-is used, and,
if necessary, twisted. for campaign
purposes. Mr.. Borah Is still for the
ticket, and his name counts for good
deal in the states Mr.. Harding win

after a contest which brought the
country to the verge of civil war. But
the presence of Gen. Grant in the
White House, and the admirable poise

The administration that followed was
one of the best in our history. Mr..

Mr.. Evarts was the recognized leader

Schurz one Of the foremost political
writer's Of the day.
Advised by such men, Mr.. Hayes

highly successful way. and had the
satisfaction Of turning them over at
