Mankind has fallen on time when
there is no hope for it if some com
munities seek isolation while others
indulge in unrestrained ambition for
empire.-President Warren G. Hard
ing.
Presactly! So America seeks isola-
ton while France seeks to domin-
ate Europe by military power, and
by taking the place of the Prussian,
become h m n e of the
worlds peace for the next ten years.
There is only one way to stop war,
and that is for the big fellows-Amer-
lea lading-to get together and put
economic pressure upon the imper-
ialists, and make them stop dream
ing in guns and gas and ships and
soldiers. Isolation will bring nothing
but another world crushing war, and
the sooner we get rid of the isola-
ton hallucination, the better it will
be for civilization which America is
bound by her economic strength to
preserye.-Emporia Gazette.
Gustave Eiffel, who designed the
great tower in Paris, is now SO and
entertained a number of friends a
few days ago.

Fourth of July was the telegram to
VoIstead, author of the prohibition
act, demanding that the Volstead act
be repealed. 1t was signed by a lot
of New Workers who tried to get up
a protest parade and failed They fail
ed because the common sense Of the
American people has rendered final
judgment against the American saloon
and has abolished it from American
life. Men will blow around more or
less about prohibition, but when
they come to vote against it--they
balk The saloon is gone and with it
Eight wines and beer" For it is not
what we drank in the American sa-
loon, that banished it; the way we
drank, and the kind of influence
around the saloon made it hateful
The saloon fostered the gambler and
sheltered the man parasite of the
prostitute. The saloon was corrup
ting influence in politics. The saloon
was source of economic waste, and
as such it became loathsome, and the
practical sense of America decreed
the Punishment of the saloon. The
reason was not moral, but economic
and social. The moral issue was the
Puritan way of CLOSING an economic
need with a moral phase. We did it
in slavery and we do it in all sorts
of minor matters, as we did it in
prohibition. But the long haired ele-
ment in prohibition was unimportant.
The saloon was banished by the Amer
lean sense Of thrift
The New York parade failed, as
all such Attempts to restore the waste
of the saloon will fail. 1t is futile to
try, and no one with any sort of feel
ing for the American people or
knowledge of their ways would try
to get the saloon back. 1t is gone

in New York was a joke!

A COLLEGE EDUCATION

Does a college education pay?
Thousands of young men and women
are preparing to enter the higher in
stitutions of learning next fall and
the above question naturally arises
with some of them; emphatically so
with parents who must sacrifice that
their sons and daughters receive an
education. AS to whether the effort
made and money expended will JUS
t1fy depends largely on the individual
To attempt to resolve the question
into one of dollars and cents is a cold
blooded proposition. There is no
question that young person not
equipped with a college education is
seriously handicapped in the race of
life. There is something strange
about an education, as the years pro-
gress, it broadens the mind. More and
more is the value of an. education APP
preciated, whether at the end of fifty
years ones success is measured by
dollars or by satisfaction. America
appreciates her liberal schools and
wherever possible the young man or
woman should feast at the store of
learning they are prepared to give.

ey by the time he is fifty to endow

SOLVING ANOTHER RIDDLE

The world has been circumnaviga-
ted, both poles have been reach, the
Atlantic has been flown across, and
many other feats have been perform
ed which fill the pages of adventure,
One of the remaining riddle is to reach
the top of Mount Everest, thought to
be the highest elevation on the earth.
Now the British government has sent
out an expedition to conquer this I'M
known region. The nearest that man
has approached to the top Of this Asia
tic peak is forty-five miles and in the
course of few months the task may
be accomplished Rarefied air, ex-
IRENE cold. and tractless waste lay
before the adventures; some of these
days the record will have been made.

He was democratic nominee for con-

Baraboo has not a single attorney

AS to other professions or business
but few there are who were active
here forty years ago. A. Reinking was
beginning his long merchantile career

taken an active interest in the bank

thread, and T. Clavadatscher had been
in the merchantile field for ten years.
He has been longer in business than
any one in Baraboo.

AUTOS COLLIDE
ON SAUK ROAD

Sheriff H. G. Neitzel and Fred
Schubring met with an automobile
accident yesterday afternoon near
Spencers' corners on the West Sank
road The sheriff in a new Ford auto
was, going in the direction of Prairie
du Sac and Mr.. Schubring in his car
was coming in the direction of Bara-
boo. Both cars met just a short dis
lance from the large rock near the
road at the corners. The road in
this particular place is extremely dan
gerous as autoists cannot see each
other until on the straightaway. The
Neitzel car and the Schubring car
met, it seems, in the center of the
road. Baraboo men, who. were called
to the scene of the collision, state
it would be hard to determine who
was to blame for the mishap.
Both automobiles were badly dam
aged in the front portions. A. wheel
came off one and the fender and run
ming board on the other were badly
bent.

NEGRO POPULATION DECLINES

The census indicates. the Negro
population in the south has increased
less than per cent during the last
decade, while the increase in the
north was over 43 per cent and in
the west over SIS per cent Many of
the Negroes who left the south during
the war are returning but a large
share will remain. The south con
tinues to have IS per cent of the
Negro population and no doubt al
ways will have Since the days of
slavery the Negro has more and
more come to realize the responsible
ity OF family and this may be fac
tor in accounting for the race decline.
A higher standard of living has ar
rived but those interested in the sub
ject do not anticipate race decline
Changed conditions affects both white
and black and in the end the Negro
may lead more and more in the CEN
sus enumeration. Time only can
bring the actual figures.

Sewers to Be Screened.

Gratifying assurance 10 given that
all sewer openings and ducts leading
to sewers will be effectively screened
as soon as possible to prevent any fur,
ther accidents such as that of Monday,
when two little boys were swept to
death by torrent in Soldiers Home
grounds. 1t appears that but for Ger.
tain objections on the score of pos.
sible danger to the sewers through
sudden flooding these danger points
in the grounds would have been grated
some time ago. Obviously the risk to
life is of more consequence than the
possibility of sewer break in sud.
den flooding incident to the clearance
of the grating traps. 1t is misfor.
tune that the initial purpose of the
home authorities to screen the sewers
was not followed, for thereby these
lives were sacrificed. Let there now
be a thorough search for all other
places of possible tragedy in the Dis.
trict. Drownings. of course. may oc.
cur through accident. Children may
fall into deep water. But there should
be no place in the capital where they
can be washed by a rushing sudden
rainfall into places from which they
cannet be readily rescued. Negligence
of any such possible death traps will
be reflection upon the public author.
