my nephew rs head is passing sore-the storm has
kept him from dance The storm began

its noise would wake the dead; the tempest now
might raise the dead, and every minute swels
its power, and all my folks seeing red, and
they are savage mad and dour For all had dates
they hate to miss, the movie show, bridge or

the sights to see, when darting lightnings round
them hiss and so they're sore, but as for me-

AN OBJECT LESSON
(DeLand News.)

Colombia has finally decided to accept the $685.
100000 from Uncle Sam and call it all square
This is the amount that voted by congress
last April. The Colombian senate recently rati-
fed the treaty, and soon as the money is paid
over that little republic can go fishing. Now if
few other nations of the world will only learn
lesson from the manner in which these two ma.
tions have settled little matter of dispute much
will be gained.

A STRONG POLICY

Cordell Hull, the new chairman of the Demo
cratic National Committee. appears to have some
good ideas regarding the organization and man.
agement of the party. He desires to convert the
committee into militant and efficient organiza-
ton and to inform the public as to the shortcom-
irgs of the present national administration.
These are the first and necessary steps toward
victory next fall. Perhaps they are not. of them
selves, sufficient to insure success but without them
success is impossible.
The 'miltancy'' of the organization, however
should extend to the formation of a positive def
nite just and democratic policy with regard to the
vital issues of the near future. The mill will not
grind with the waters that are past the old proverb
tells us, and we must adjust its bearings to the
waters that are still above the dam. They in
clude, to slide down from the figure of speech, the
taxation problem, the refunding of foreign debts
due to Amreica, and the relief of the people from
war burdens.
A positive program on these questions should
be announced without delay 1t is not worth
while 10 wait for the Republicans to make their
inevitable blunders. I Ire Democratic party can
not win the next election on the issue of Republican
failure unless it can show satisfactory plan of
its own. A party can not build success on mega
ton. 1t may win an occasional election on mere
opposition, but the experience of the present ad-
ministration is already showing that it can not hold
together and do business on that basis.
Party platforms will all have to be revised
and the golden rule for revision is this: Be on the
right side, whether it popular or expedent or
not. The question should be. not how will this or
that proposition strike certain interests or local.
ties? but how does square with the eternal prn-
ciples of justice and democracy?
Chairman Hull is a capable and experienced
man. He enjoys the full confidence of the ma
tional committee and the party leadership. He
has an opportunity, of the kind that comes but
once in life time, to lead his party back 10 those
basic maxims which for century were the guiding
stars of his party. Democracy-m discredited
today than for hundred and fifty years past-is
the only remaining hope of modern civilization
and the Democratic party will be useful as the
servant Of humanity just in proportion as its prin-
ciples are made to conform to its name.

PRACTICALLY AND WORLD PEACE

Interest in the coming armament conference be-
gan to lag the moment it was stated that discus
sions were to proceed along practical lines, and
the impossible not to be attempted.
Practically is always within the circle of ex-
perence 1t is absolutely inconsistent with any
genuine progress. 1t always does what has been
done before Progress consists in doing what has
never been done before.
World peace is a practical mpossibility.
There is no precedent for it. Wars have been
from the beginning, and the practical conclu-
sion is that they must continue 10 the end hat
accepted, the logical conclusion is that the nation
which has the strongest armament is in the best
practical situation to hold its own with its fellow
nations, and practical armament reduction could
therefore, consist of nothing more important than
possible cheapenng Of the cost of war machin-
cry, or an agreement to let the old guns serve
little longer.
That may be the conception of the men who
compose The coming conference. We believe it IS
But it is net the conception Of the great masses of
humanity who are tired and sickened with the
eternal burden and the utterly useless waste Of
war Now, as in many previous periods it is the
masses who are idealists-inspired just as they
were in the early days of Christianity with the
vision of higher things-whle the leaders are
practical" men chained to the wheel Of prece-
dent.
For man at this period of the worlds history
surrounded by things which would have seemed
miracles even a century ago-to stand up and
argue that thing must continue forever just be-
cause it has always existed, is to confess an utter
ncapacity for dealing with any question affecting
the progress of the race. The practical man is
the newer of wood and drawer of wafer. and has
been through all the ages, while the impractical
dreamer has stood at the helm and steered ever
deeper into the realm of the impossible.
Time was when the only practical method of
locomotion was by the feet. 1t was a daring
dreamer who first climbed on the back of an ami
the wheel All experience was against it, but,
NAL and discovered that travel had thereby be-
come vastly easier for man. Ages later some
apostae of the practical conceived the notion of
the wheel. All experience was against it, but,
though the first wheelwright was probably cruel
fed, the world adopted his discovery and moved
into higher plane of existence.
World progress is a record of dreams come
true. World peace is as yet only dream, but
it is one which has fastened upon the minds of
millions who will refuse to accept the verdict of
the reactionaries If the coming conference fails
it will merely demonstrate that the leadership of
the representative nations is below the average of
their citizenship

Here is one argument which might appeal even
10 the hre-eang advisors of the French confer

cut down materially the fighting nations of Europe
can not save up enough money to prepare for the

the house of representatives daily
calendar has grown to huge proper
lions. The amount of work thus
placed in front of them does not
cause the members to hesitate over
taking time for verbal battles over
many of the measures that come up
however, and nearly every day has its
special attraction in the way of
fight over some bill.
