TUO Kinds

,,UGH O'NEILl., Speaker of the
n alleged Parliament which the
i British government has set up

alleged Parliament which the
- British government has set up
in North ireland, is beginning to
fear that the British government
NAV concede to the Irish people a
united Ireland.
Speaker O'Neill now puts on the
mantle IF Sir Edward Carson and
threatens rebellion against the Brit
ish government. He forgets that the
present Republican army which has
beaten Great Britain to a standstlll
is the result of Sir Edward Carson 8
rebellion in the north of Ireland
The Asquith-Lloy George liberal
and labor cabinet just before the war
adopted a Home Rule bill highly
satisfactory to the great majority of
Ireland, but very unsatisfactory to
the big business interests of the
north of Ireland for whom Edward
Carson was the attorney.
So Sir Edward Carson got up
little rebellion by stirring up re-
hgious prejudices of the Orange
men in Ulster. He publicly an
nounced that he would rather have
the Kaiser than the King for an
overload if the British government
was going to permit Ulster to unite
with the rest of Ireland. He threat
ened military resistance to an act of
Parliament. Instead of being shot
Sir Edward was promoted in the
Cabinet. He was privileged tral-
tor.
When the Irish majority, follow
ing the astonishing and successful
example of rebellion, rebelled also,
their leaders were not put into the
Cabinet, but were stood up against
a wall and shot without trial.

Depreciation Schedules Of
Local Public Utilities
By Bill L P r I G e +.

Complete control of local public utilities by the Public
Utilities Commission cannot be exercised if the power TO

Depreciation accounts, however, intimately related
TO valuations and rates, and if there is to be divided

both rates and valuations. The situation will be delight

Noah Said
BY Angela Morgan

nj OAH said,
Seeing the warning overhead,
- Knowing how fast the waters ran
A deluge coming to conquer man
10. let us build above the storm
A house to shelter US safe and warm"
For Noah knew
That only love is true.
But modern mortals say,
Seeing the winds that rage today:
"Come, let us fight the storm with storm,
No peaceful ark may shield from harm.
When thunder bellows down the sky,
With equal wrath shall we reply.
When lightning strikes, we shatter, too.
Only by meeting wrong with wrong
May strong men batter down the strong"
But Noah said
Seeing the warning overhead,
Come, let US build above the gale
Gods ark OF love, that shall not fail"

Let Us Have Faith!
HE world needs confidence above all other things.
Ere good can come again;
By Angela Morgan

THE world needs confidence above all other things,
Ere good come again;
- Humanity must lift its fallen wings.
Men must have faith in men.
Men must believe that other men are true,
Prosperity withholds her stricken face
Nor peace may come with tidings large and new,
Till faith once more is throned within her place.
The world needs CONFIDENCE to light the way.
We stumble through the tangled paths of fear,
So walled about with terror and dismay,
We know not Fortune, though she standeth near.
Doubt is a canker eating up the soul
OF industries and nations by one.
Doubt is paralysis, and takes its toll
OF every human hope beneath the SUM-
Men must believe that other just,
Must wake the frozen channels Of goodwill.
Not by the ancient ways of cold distrust
May mortals conquer i'll.
Men must believe that other are fair,
Must find the way to peace through channels new.
Suspicion breeds suspicion and despair;
The path to honor lies in being true
Men must have done with anger and with guilt,
Must hurl their hatreds and their wrongs aside.
Men must tear down the temples they have built
To prejudice and pride IT,
The world needs CONFIDENCE! God let it blaze
Like Summer sounding its mperious call.
Bid men forsake their dark and sundered ways
And toll together for the good Of ALL

What Makes q Nation?

~ ORMER VICE PRESIDENT
MARSHALL, addressing the
4 people gathered at the King
ston Fair in Rhode Island, said:
II would permit no man or
woman, not a full American
citizen, who does not read,
write or speak the English
language, to vote in this
country"
We don't know why Mr.. Marshall
made an exception of the full Ameri-
can citizen. If by a full American
citizen he means a man or woman
who was born in this country, we
should think that the disability of
such a PERSONS not being able to
read, write or speak the English
language would be greater and more
disqualifying than the inability of
foreigner.
Such an inability would be greater
evidence of that lack of intelligence
and character on account of which
we disqualify from voting our
minors, our insane and our crimi-
mails, though they be born in
America.
Those who cannot read and write
and speak the English language
ought not to vote. But if we es.
tablish that disqualification we
should establish correlatively the
duty to do everything we can, not
only to make it easy, but to COM
PEI those within the country who
are born here or are immigrants,
to learn to speak. read and write
the English language and to under
stand our institutions.
1t is our duty to do this because
we cannot afford, if we wish a stable
democracy, to have a great mass
of submerged human beings without
a, voice in the Government of the
country.
Democracy does not come to US
through the form of government. 1t
is much more in a state of mind, in
the capacity for self-govermnent,
than in formal charter.
For instance, Venezuela adopted
a constitution and a form of gov
eminent copied directly from ours,
but in seventy-one years Venezuela
had seventy revolutions.
1t is not in the written word, but
the soul and spirit of the people,
that nation is revealed.

The March
of EUentS
T is very apparent that some
agency is working to discredit in

agency is working to discredit in
America every approach to Eu-
ropean peace and reconstruction.
The most responsible men in
France are in favor of establishing
economic cooperation with Ger
many, and there is no doubt at all
that Ludendorff's declaration in
favor of that policy was made pub
lie with the knowledge and approval
of such able French leaders as
BRAND and Loucheur, as we'll as
with the knowledge and approval
of such German leaders as SHINES
and his political and business allies.
Yet the dispatches from overseas
picture Ludendorff as having
thrown a match into a powder
magazine.
That is one instance.
The American relief workers are
going where they please in Russia,
and they find the Soviet government
eager to cooperate in saving the
perishing.
Yet dispatch after dispatch, all
evidently inspired by a desire to
lessen American sympathy, details
wholesale massacres, military prepa
rations, political treacheries and in
trigues, and so on, as occupying the
time and energies of the Soviet gov
eminent.
Nothing is left unsaid that might
help to lessen American sympathy
and check the flow of American re-
lief to the starving and dying.
That is another instance.
There is no rightful reason why
Poland and Russia should again go
to war. In the very nature of the
case, Russia has neither men, money
nor transportation to spare in the
midst of its awful suffering from
famine, nor is it credible that the
Soviet leaders would be contemplate
ing an invasion of Poland.
Poland itself is in a bad way,
financially and economically, and
cannot feed all her own people with
out calling on the worlds charity.
Yet dispatch after dispatch pre-
diets that the Soviet government
is preparing to invade Poland, and
that Poland is making ready for
another offensive against Russia.
There is some danger Of outside in
fluences being able to incite the
Polish government to this mad ad-
venture, but it is far more probable
that the wish is father to the
thought in these suspicious dis
patches.
And there is another instance of
the bad work being carried on
through some subsidized press
agency.
We suspect that nearly all this
wicked work is inspired and
financed by the Czarist exiles and
their allies who call themselves the
representatives of the Russian
people.
These counter-revolutionists have
an agent in America who is still
recognized and received as an Am
bassador" Though he represents
no Government-and who has still
control of what is left of the two
hundred million dollars which Will
son and McAdoo handed to him.
Millions of dollars of this money
have been spent in extravaganza
and luxurious living, and other
huge sums in financing a so-called
bureau of Russian information.
