Peace with Germany.
Cincinnati Inquirer.)


 The President procaims peace with Germany. off cal peace with her misguided subordinates will follow Thus officially ends the greatest of wars in the history of mankind.
 The former German Emperor. broken is eating his heart in exile Doorn, caricature of the cqnquerors he sought to emulate. His wife lis dead Of broken heart his children outlawed with him, his former empire reduced to the position of fourth-rate state. Within that empire the roots of democracy seem to be firmly fixed His weak tool, Charles of Hungary, with his clever and ambitious wife is exile in petty Portuguese island, there Ito vegetate and simulate the estate of royalty in miniature opera -bouffe fashion. The pomp and pan oply and glory of autocracy has departed from the fatherlands forever.
 The Kaisers attack on civilization cost the nations in dead wounded, missing and prisoners 35, 000, 900 Add the widows and orphans and dependents hell of war.
 The of this carnival of slaughter and waste in money is estimated at something like $370 ,000 GOO 900, almost incomprehensible sum, with legacy of debt to the nations which, if it does not bankrupt the world, at least imposes upon comin 7 generations the slavery of intolerable taxation
 But if out of all this wholesale murder incon- ceivable suffering and monumental material loss as from a baptism of blood and flame the genius of lasting peace shall have to the world the price paid by civilization for its preservation will not be considered excessive.
 The assurance of this preservation is in the hands of the world leaders assembled at Washington It is theirs to guard the present and secure the future
 The peoples of the great nations of the earth friendly, they do not want And along with the rest Germany must be considered essential factor be suffered to become dead nation. She be as sisted to assist in the rebuilding of the shattered walls ot civilizations foundations. She is paying and must continue to pay, the price for her msguidance, but not to the of her disintegraton At peace now with the world she must do her duty by the world and the world must do it's duty by her

CONSIDER THE CANADIAN ELECTION.

Canada voted against high tariff Tuesday when she returned the Liberal Party to power. She voted in effect. for the reciprocity that defeated ton years ago. This circumstance and the fact that Can ada, next to the United Kingdom is best toner and yields to second best balance of trade, should be taken account when we formulate tariff legislation.
 The balance of trade in favor of the United Sta os in trading with Canada last year was more tn n $S6O, 900, figure that would have been re- garded handsome balance of trade in our coal- merce with the entire world decade ago. All tra ie has been less this year than last, but in the n months ended with October the balance of trade in our favor from Canada than $237, 300 O00 If this rate should be maintained until the end of the year the 1921 total will be than $2S5 0O0- ooo There are only two other countries to whom our total exports will amount much If Novelr- Der and December show well as the rest of tNe year, we shall have sold Canada during the yc r merchandise to the value of $62O, 900 OO0 almost three times as much to any other country, Gre t Britain and Germany excepted, and fifty per cent more than to Germany
 very fair in arranging tariffs imports from Canad, She is too good a customer to treat harshIy and o good friend. Working and living conditions are very similar there those in the United Statc~ In fact. there is reason other than consider uons Of revenue production for the maintenance of the Government for tariff merchandise from canada than there would be for one on merchandise from Missouri Maine
 If Canada should ask. she probably will for reciprocity agreement with the United States it should be granted. and the free trade t, a agreement the nearer correct principles the we fare of both countries would be served.

IF EVENTUALLY, WHY NOT NOW?

If, Governor Bone tentatively suggests, Alasks faces ultimate division into two or more Territories why have the division at once? The Ketchikan Chronicle than occasion has advocated the separation of Southeast Alaska from the other portions of the Territory Others of Southeast Alaska have frequently urged it for several years
 It has been often pointed out that Southeast Alaska could easily for herself without Federal assistance in any different degree extent than the Federal Government has assisted other Territories in their day. Whatever may be said of the other parts of the Territory, questions the ability of Southeast Alaska to maintain a full Territorial form of government. She could very easily sustain two or three County governments and Territorial organization It is true the area-something over 50000 square miles-is rather small, when compared with the of Western States However, with the development of the pulp and paper industry which will certainly come, and the continued development of mining and fishing Southeast Alaska would in very few years have large popuation-larger than mny of the States had when admitted to the Union.
 If Southeast Alaska is to be severed from the other portions of the Territory before Statehood would that she should be severed now so that she might begin caring for herself and preparing for her own future and not be longer loaded with the charge of aiding in the development of great areas with which she shall not be identified in the future She is pioneer country herself with a great deal of de- velopment to do Under the circumstances if she is never participate in the benefits that will come with the development of the hundreds of thousands of square miles in the and on Berng Sea and the Arctic the burden of carrying those widely scat tered sections of the Territory should be borne by all the States of the Union equally Southeast Alaska should not be required to bear unequal share of this cost if her benefits to be only the same general benefits may to all the States

Dusk

 The day grows old and dies upon the land, And sunny hollows fill with gather ing mist; The ghosts of evening keep again their tryst And wander singing in twilight band. Soft winds fly down and touch nte with their lips And take my hand in theirs and lead me on, Through endless avenues of silent song, To where beyond the day dear magic sleeps. I know not where they lead me, far or near, To death( defeat( or happiness per haps. And so I go with gladness, not a fear, But in their care l rest in kindly laps. And for my faith they lift me to a star Where I may dream that hidden beauties are. J. w. l..

 The last legislature of Alabama cast 5S votes for the health bill, now the law of the state. It cast 4S against it. It failed to cast it's 34 other votes Fifty eight, out of Al votes. The press of the state showed itself hostile to the bill and can be counted on to continue hos tile. A sad day it will be when the press favors the farming out of these most important governmental functions to chartered association, The day of delegation of power and privilege to an oligarchy is past for the rest of the world. Do you think we are going to prove all history false?
 Under our peculiar system, have you observed that the people of the state de- rive greater benefits than do the peo- pie of other states possessing democrat ic, responsible systems? Do they show greater interest in their health affairs than do the people of all other states? Do you, as a mere member of state med ical association and board of health. enjoy greater benefits than does ths mere member of the state association in all other states?

In what other associa- tion-anywhere in the whole world could you picture the possibility of a re- tained attorney being assigned to the programme to call In question the mo- tives of members who advocate democra cys in organization? Such an outrage would never have been dreamed of else where, and speaks for itself and for our system.
 If you do not derive unusual benefits and the people of your state do not de- rive unusual benefits who does derive the benefits? Certainly somebody must derive benefits. Certainly somebody must resent giving up power and place and privilege. Somebody must benefit from the hue and cry kept up against those pestiferous fellows in Jefferson that have dared raise thelr voices for dem- ocracy in public health affairs and for equality of opportunity in the State Medical association. If you and your fellow mere members do not derive un- usual benefits. what will you or your fellow members or your fellow citizens lose If we voluntarily vote to give up special privelege and to reorgarfize the state association on a flat-footed basis of equality, like other state associa- tions all over these United Statese Fraternally yours,
