The Heart of kosciuslzo

In accord with a resolution Of the
Polish Diet, the heart of Kosciusko,
now in Switzerland, is to be taken
to Poland and enshrined at Warsaw.
The date selected, October Is, is the
l04th anniversary of the death Of the
Polish patriot and will be observed
by the whole Polish nation.
Not long ago the heart Of another
great Pole, Chopin, was conveyed
home, and now is at rest, after the
life of sadness that his music whis-
pers Of, in one Of the principal
churches of the Polish capital. But
Kosciusko is dearer even than Cho-
pinto the degree that life itself is
more important than the most sub
lime declarations Of its spirit
Americans will take an interest in
the cerenonials connected with the
transfer. For eight years Che en-
barked for America bearing letters
from Franklin before Lafayette
came) Washington leaned on Kosci-
usllo. The excellent position of the
Americans at Bemis Heights, which
led on to Burgoyne's surrender at
Saratoga, was due to his discerning
eye. AS an engineer he fortified
West Point, was adjutant to Wash
ington, and his service under Ma
thanael Greene in the. South was
brilliant. When peace came he re-
turned to Europe with the formal
thanks Of Congress.
American youth should know more
of this man than that Freedom
shrieked when he fell. For three
years he held at bay the overwhelm-
ing forces Of the Gar and the Kai-
scr, resisting the most tempting
offers to yield. When Poland's final
tragedy came he fell as a wounded
prisoner into Russia's hands. But
with all their faults the czars, diff
fering from Russia's present rulers,
had a sense of chivalry, and the EN-
peror Paul subsequently released
kosciusko in honor, Offering to re-
turn his sword. ~ have no more
need of sword" said the hero, cas-
have no longer country"
Always liberal, he became after
his American experience convinced
believer in democratic principles. An
aristocrat, nevertheless he released
from servitude the peasants of his
own estate. Through him flowed
into the back regions of Europe the
influence Of American ideals. He
would have, he said, Poland another
America.
The story of the heart Of Bruce,
flung by Douglas toward the Holy
Land when the messenger could not
carve his way through foes in Spain,
has been Of never-ending inspiration
TO the Scotch-explains to some de-
gree their tenacious opposition to
tyranny. The heart Of Kosciusko,
with its noble message, can scarcely
fail to be like inspiration to the
youth of Poland and to strengthen
that religion of patriotism which is
strongly marked Polish quality.

At last cometh the dawn. In the
acceptance of the Stanley amend
ment to the Willis Campbell bill by
the Senate Of the United States we
see the signal Of new day and the
Reinforcement of law and the Con-
stitution.
The Stanley amendment makes a
violation of our constitutional guar
anty of personal liberty a felony
punishable by a fine of 81 900 or
Imprisonment for one year or, in
the discretion Of the proper court,
by the imposition of both fine and
imprisonment. a mans home is his
castle, and his person is inviolable
against search or seizure except by
the ordained processes Of law. No
agent of government, whether state
or Federal, can make an arrest or
search of the person or enter upon
any household or that which is pri-
vate property for the purpose of
search or seizure unless possessed
of specific warrant. Those who
enforce the law must obey the law
This is but reaffirmation of the
Fourth Amendment to the Consti-
tuition, in which the Fathers of the
Republic 1870 years ago declared
and proclaimed the guaranty of
their and our personal liberty How
precious did they consider it,
"The right of the people to be
secure in their persons, houses, pa
pers and effects against unreason-
able searches and seizures shall not
be violated, and no warrants shall
issue but upon probable cause, sup
ported By oath or affirmation, and
particularly describing the place to
be searched and the persons or
things to be seized"
We are too close, perhaps, to
what has been going on among us
for the last eight years or so for
the masses of the people to assess
the enormity of the violations by
public servants Of the guaranty
contained in the Fourth Amend
ment.
When historians Of this era Of
'sThe New Freedom" come to cast
up the record they will have occa-
sion to marvel that a people for
whom freedom was purchased at
such a cost should have drifted SO
far from their moorings as to be
compelled in the month of August,
1921, to reassert by statute the
right Of personal liberty as guar
anteed in their Constitution. To
them it will seem an incredible
thing. What will seem more in
credible is the fact that the Stanley
amendment did not prevail unani-
mously. Twenty members of the
Senate voted against it,
The Stanley amendment recon-
mits the Willis Campbell bill to con-
ference. Let it issue forthwith and
become law Of the land. Let the
House conferees show no hesitation,
for there is a public opinion which
finds its inspiration in the spirit and
the sacrifices of the founders Of the
nation and in an inherent instinct
of freedom which expects no less
e public opinion which will be salts
fed to subscribe to no other than a
government Of laws.
Away with government by men.
Away with false gods
That way contentment and safety
lie.

THE SERVANT IN THE HOUSE.
Stamford, Conn, Aug. 9, 1921.

To the Editor Of. The Tribune.
Sir: Has Butler" who sent you tbs
interesting letter of August 2, taken
INTO account that the $50 wage Of tho
butler and the $50 wage of the laun-
dress represent but fraction Of the
actual cost Of their service for the en-
rloyer? Has he reckoned the cost
week and month of their food, their
share of the rent, light, household
laundry and household service they
require Of the cook and other maids?
This may well double their wage, so
that the ultimate cost of their wage is
their honorarium plus these other sc-
tual expenses which few employees take
into account as real household expen-
citurcs chargeable TO them.

CONFERENCE.

Premier, After Receiving Reply on
Latest Proposals, Must Decide
Next Step of the Empire for
Peace or War.

London.-After two conferences In
Dublin with Eamonn de Valera, the
Sim Fein delegates in the Irish con.
ference bave returned to London. II
had been intended, according to state.
ments at the Sim Feln publicity de-
partment here, that only Arthur Grit
fifth, Sim Fein foreign minister, would
return at present and that the others
would follow in day or two.
1t was expected the reply of the
Dali Eireann cabinet to the latest Brit
ish proposals would be fatty yes" or
no. and that In either event, Prime
Minister Lloyd George, upon Mr.. Crit.
fith's return, would decide the govern
ment's future action. But the news
that all the delegates would soon be on
their way here was taken to indicate
there would be further discussion Of
details, giving rise to hope that final
breach In the negotiations might be
averted.

don, and he could see the Sim Fem
delegates on arrival, if necessary, gov

1t was understood that the Sim Fem
delegates were bringing the Dali cabi-
nets last word, and If the premier
should be able to meet any additional
points they might raise he would SUBJ
NIT the new plan to Sir James Craig
of Ulster by middle of the week. In
the event Of rejection of the proposals
by Sir James it was indicated that the
next move might be the resignation Of
the cabinet members as a prelude to a
general election.
If an agreement should not be reach
ed between the Sim Feinn and the
government, the new plan, 1t is under.
stood, will not be submitted to the Ul-
ster premier and there was no def
mite clue as to what might be Mr..
Lloyd Georges next move. In some
quarters belief was expressed that the
military would be given command Of
the Irish situation Immediately. In
other circles, however, 1t was sup.
posed the government would publish
all the correspondence on the Irish
situation and ask the electors later for
Q mandate to deal with the situation.
