STOP THE sQUASDFR.

Congress is getting messages as hot
as they are numerous from all parts
Of the country because. with all the
talk that there is in Washington
about reducing the cost Of govern
nent. the taxes do not come down
and new ways TO spend money crop
up like spring wheat.

appropriations that swell instead of
shrinking. A very heavy outlay is
demanded for the new project of a
department Of public welfare, with
long payroll lists. So-called reform
measures, all calling for salaries and
expenses, litter the legislative calen-
dars. More money is wanted for
pretty nearly everything. Even the

COFFEE

Evangeline is brewing a
noxious sort of drink: it might
be laundry bluing. it might be
hrindle ink; but coffee she be-
lieves it, this beverage of death;
and when her hub receives it he
swears beneath his breath. The
two were lately married, the
bonds of love are strong, the
husband hasn't carried his
grievance very long. He hasn't
started brawling, the riot is de-
layed. though often he's recall
ing the coffee mother made. And
ihwardly he's Quaking. he
knows not what To do; Evange-
line is making most atrocious
brew. Her coffee tastes like
leather, it gives an awful jolt,
and he is asking whether it's
time for a revolt. He hates to
hurt her feelings, but must he
always drink a brew of carrot
peelings that puts him on the
blink? He hates TO spoil the
glamor surrounding loves
young dream, but he has
katzenjammer from coffee that's
a scream. 1t can't go on for
ever, he'll dump the martyrs
crown; some day his wrath will
sever the bonds that hold him
down; some day. the CALLED
possessor of grievances and
cares will wreck a costly dress
er and break a lot OF chairs
Another home. once cheerful,

wife. sad and fearful. viii ask
for a decreei Though moralists
are showing the customary
bunk. no man can keep on low
ing where coffee is so punk.

WHY WEARY OVER LITTLE
THINGSf

Occasionally. in the mass of letters
which come TO every newspaper office.
there is one a bit out of the ordinary.
Perhaps ii is a word of commentator
for an editorial; again. it is brilliant
and fair attack upon the papers pol
icy. Maybe IL is pertinent COM
ment upon a political issue. Once IN
a while it is communication which
fiatters by assuming that editorial 1--WE"
is fount of all earthly wisdom. Or,
perchance, it is a letter like this one:
Mr.. Editor:-I'm sick and tired
of politics; l heard both of the
mayoralty candidates promise to
give the people the moon, and l
know that neither one could de-
liver, so I'm glad the fight is over.
Now I'd like complete rest from
politics, and talk of old lady h.
c. l.. and the mouthings of false
labor leaders, and the screech-
ings of yellow backed men who
see a Bolshevist behind every
soup spoon. The papers are
crammed with such matter; so
are the magazines; 50 are the
books that are being published.
Can't yoc recommend an anaes-
thetic book-that is a book to
read which will lift me up by my
own boot straps, and make me
nf
century, and carry me on the
wings of fancy" into a distant
land, where the sunshine casts
no shadows on the past?" Just
between us, Mr.. Editor, what do
you read when you get tired of
the mouthings OF the cheap poll
ticians on both sides of the fence,
who pretend to love the people
but really want the glory-if
there is such in American poll
tics-and the Doodle?
An anaesthetic book. Clever phrase,
that.
Yes, "there are such things as an
aesthetic books. If we are as tired
of present-day affairs as our corre-
spondent, we would hike to the near
est book stall, and in firm tones de-
mand that Romaine Rolland's bril-
liant romance of mediaeval days,

Ia between Hindenburw and President
WILSON, meaning not only that
Americas fighting men were coming,
but that Americas Chief WAS begin
ming by his messages to undermine
the morale OF the German nation.
Now comes Field Marshal Won Hin
denburS, who won his baton because
of his great victory over the Rus
slams in the campaign of the Masur-
ian Lakes, and who later headed the
Kaisers army and says that 1t was
Woodrow Wilson who caused the de-
feat of the German nation. This
statement is made In Hindenburg's
autobiography. "Out of My Life"
which has just been published in Eng
lish translation in this country. After
describing the efforts which had been
made to hold the Hindenburg line,
and the precautions which had been
taken to assure a safe retreat In case
of failure, the Marshal says that the
efforts of the great German general
staff were completely frustrated by
Woodrow Wilson'S messages, which
were being received by the civilian
population.
He places the entire blame for the
November collapse not on his SOL
diers. not on the failure of the sub
marine campaign. not on Foch's ag-
gressive counterstrokes, not on the
their battle line, but on Woodrow Will
son, who completely undermined the
faith OF the German population in
their war lords. Hindenburg says
The homeland collapsed sooner
than the army. In these circum-
stances we were unable TO offer
any real resistance TO the ever
increasing pressure of the Presi-
dent OF the United States.
This is a statement of fact, made by
the highest possible authorfty--the
leader of the eneury's fighting forces,
Not g,Ins-but words resulted in his
failure; words typed on battered
machine by thin little bespectacled
gentleman sitting in the cloistered Sc
clusion of his study in the White
House, words which were flashed
through the air by wireless. and re-
ceived by the people behind the Ger
man lines; words which offered them
the only way out of war which
threatened to last forever-so they
thought.
1t is rather peculiar that the high
est tribute which has ever been paid
TO Woodrow Wilson comes from the
pen Of the once arch enemy of our
civilization. But it is characteristic
of the grim old fighter that he gives
his praise to Wilson willingly, not
grudgingly.
Long after the putrid- minded scan
dal-mongers among the Republicans
in Congress have died. and their bones
have rotted unknown and uncared for,
Wilson will be hailed as something
more than a statesman and a diplo-
mat. -Perhape Tumulty was right.
Field Marshal Won Hindenburg says
that his messages caused the downfall
Of the German nation. A German will
admit that but certain self-styled pa
triots in Washington will not.
