that standpoint alone the discontinuance gof the
former group arrangements will be found decidedly
satisfactory. 1T is still further satisfactory because
5of its significance. The one ballot boxmay Be taken
as q symbol of the one basis on which ali citizens al
tend the polls. We perform the duties 81 citizenship,
not on the basis OF race, color, reli9ion, occupation or
sex, but on the single basis ofaAmerican citizenship.
No other consideration ought to be admitted no
other grouping ought to BE recognized.
There are organizations Of women voters which
are performing highly,proper and useful work. Mat
tiers OF taste, tradition and environment make Il con-
venicnt and appropriate that in additionsto the gem
efal discussion Of public questions IN which the
members OF both sexes are free to pafticipate,woner
should meet At times and places convenient for them
Tor the further consideration Of these subjects. Such
groupings are useful SO long as they do not tend to
create or accentuate group antagonisn,s and con-
fliets. When they do that they are utterly mis-
~chievous.
In some quarters there is constant effort to pro-
jtct. into Our universal Acknowledgement the spirit Of
group division which is utterly incompatible
with that acknowledgements Those engaged
IN this effort would have it understood that
enfranchised women have interests apart from, and
N, many cases opposed to those Of enffanchised men,
that conception is as foreign to our system of gov
eminent as is the creation Of political groups on the
basis OF occupation, or race, or religion. Such d.
visions are inconsistent with the principle Of the
equality OF all citizens before the law. It is in the
matter of citizenship, and in that alone, that all eiti-
zers are equal. Efforts to demonstrate. their equality
on any other basis are futile, and anything which
tends to obscure it on the basis on which alone It
exists is a mehace to the security Of our institutions
The single ballot box is a symbol of one of the.
important elelnentsjn our national life.

THE RAILWAY STRIKE VOTE.

According to the reports of the voting on the
question OF a strike BY railway men because Of dis
satisfaction with the wage awards recently made,
there is a decided difference OF opinion between tho
majority Of the voting employees and Chairman Lee
>t the traintle1s organization. The vote SO far re-
ported is very largely in favor of a strike, Mr.. Lee
has advised strongly against this course. The rea-
sons WHICH he advances for his attitude indicate a
clear conception Of the conditions Under which the
work OF the country is carried On, and q recognition
Of conditions which. in the Tong run, must govern in
the adjustment of any scale of wages.
In his appeal to the trainmen Mr.. Lee points out
facts whose existence must be recognized. Among
on the basis Of mitch higher scale of living costs than
now prevails that in every industry workmen have
been required to accept, and have accepted, substan-
tal wage reductions that there are now five million
unemployed men in the country and that it must be
expected that scales Of wages, as we'll as other costs
in all lines, must be reduced.
There is no such thing as arguing away the facts
which Mr.. Lee cites, and his citation of them as ele-
fnents to be considered in determining the attitude
OF any body OF men toward their employment is
timely and pertinent.
1t is not expected that men in any line of ac-
tvity will contemplate with any measure of salts
faction the reduction of their own incomes The de-
sire OF the individual is for larger income and lower
living costs. But when the adjustment of the affairs
OF the entire country is in progress. men with =
broad conception OF things will realize that each
group must make it's contribution to the work that is
going on, and that If industry is to be rehabilitated,
no class or group can be exempt from the conditions
inseParable from the process. 1t is not good for the
country that a few should be highly paid while mil
lions are out Of work. These facts are recognized and
accepted by Mr.. Lee, but thus far ne has not been
able to impress his views on the majority of the
members Of his organization.

MR.. BoRAH's CONSISTENCY.

No matter how sound or unsound are Senator
Borah's views, his attitude on the treaties with Ger
many, Austria and Hungary has at least the merit
of consistency. MIR. Borah refused to vote for the
ratification Of the treaty Of Versailles because that
treaty committed us to partnership with the other
Allied powers in the readjustrnent Of those Of the
affairs Of Europe which were thrown out Of joint by
the war. He opposes the new treaties on the ground
that those treaties incorporate a great deal Of the
subject matter Of the treaty Of Versailles, extending
to us many Of the guarantees contained in that docu-
rnent, and imposing on It's certain Of it's obligations.
# the treaty Of Versailles was wholly to be con-
Nei1ned, the present treaties cannot be wholly salts
factory.
It seems impossible for MI. Borah to accept
what Is apparent to most other people, that in fran
ing any of the treaties defining the relations of the
victorious with the defeated powers, it is necessary
that there should be more than a mere declaration
of peace, and that whether in joint or in separate
documents, the rights, duties, privileges and obliga-
tons OF the interested nations must be set forth with
some particularly and must contain very much OF
the matter which is included in all these treaties.

I did not know twhat, or why, I

EUROPEAN COMPLICATIONS.

Those of our citizens who throw fits at every
mention OF European complications have many bad
hours in store for themselves. Those complications
are SO numerous and SO widespread that they come
upon US from every quarter. Facing eastward we
fend them off from OUR Atlantic coasts only to find
them approaching from out of the ~vastness of the
Pacific. We proclaim resolutely that we will have
nothing to do with the ~riva1ries of the European
states, but when we attempt to adjust our relations
IN and around the Pacific, which in 4 measure we
have come oregard as our own peculiar domain, we
ind that the fivalries Of European nations are wov.
en- INTO every oriental subject which we discuss.
However much we may desire that ours shall
be the dominant influence in the Pacific, we can
scarcely deny to Japan some interest in those waters
and the land adjacent thereto. Japan feels suffi-
Gent interest in continental matters to have fought
a war OF considerable proportions with Russia.
which. though just now in eclipse, must still be re-
garded as both European and Asiatic in territory

as well as from other causes, Great Britain, a rather
Important European power, has a decided interest

gal and Holland all meet us by the Pacific back door.

ropean nations In making disposition Of anv subject
pertaining to the Far East
We may shut our eyes and our ears 10 the facts
and declare that European problems do not concern

forth across and around this globe Of Ours, the rela-
tions existing among the European nations concern
sus intimately, and We cannot rid ourselves Of them.

A REIMBURSEMENT NECESSARY.

1t will be left to a jury to determine Just how far
a former moving picture comedian is to be held re-
sponslble TOT the death of a voting woman in a Cal
ifornia hotel. It is not for the general public, at this
stage OF the proceedings, to render a verdict Of MUIR
der, or manslaughter, or of innocence Of ali crime.
Provision is made for the determination of such
questions in a regular and orderly way, and the de-
elslon OF the competent tribunal is not to be fore
stalled.
There are facts, however, which have come to
the attention of the public, and which are established
ty lndisputable evidence, which show that there is
needed, at least in certain sections Of the moving
picture industry, q process Of reformation and read
~1ustrnent if that industry is to command the respect
and to perform the service which ought to Be expect
Cd OF 1T. BY whatever means the unfortunate young
woman in the case met her death, there's revealed a
state of affairs which is nothing less than shocking.
The death OF the unfortunate victim in this case fol-
lowed a carousal which was evidently no a chance
and unprecedented spree. Men and women
met and drank in q hotel apartment Under conditions
which indicate that such occurrences were matters
OF course in that particular group. It would be un
profitable to expand on the incidents which have
been related in court, but those incidents are Of such
4 character as to warrant a demand for 4 cleaning up
of no mallproportions.
It may be said that the public is not concerned
with the private life Of its screen entertainers. That
ne u not exposed to the public on the screen, and it
= tnere only mat the actor and his public meet. But
there is an element Of decency in the public which
demands that those who minister to its pleasures
shall have at least a reasonable measure 81 decency
and responsibility, and on this the public is very like
~ to insist.
The conditions under which the moving picture
business has developed are such as to provide un-
Usually large opportunity for Just such incidents as
that under discussion. The enterprise has had !
phenomenal growth, and has attracted an immense
number OF persons without experience and Of un1
known character. It w. inevitable that some u1-
desirables should have been included. but the enter
priseis now old enough to demand from It's .partici-
pants some regard for the ordinary conventions, and
for the elements Of morality. Black sheep viii az

BRYAN REDIvIvUs.

NEUTRALITY-SUSPICIOUS. = "a ~ &HE -4E -4
Not very much has been heard from Mr.. Bryan
isince his rather summary retirement from the office
lof secretary of state, a position in which he scarcely
Scovefed himself with glory. He disp1aysd signs Of
3activity before the holding of the Democratic nation
alS campaign of last year, but the. candidate chosen
was motto his liking, and Mr.. Bryan remained aloof
thereafter.
In a published book Of "reminiscences BY the
glate Chairman McCombs, of the Democratic nation
al organization, the incidents leading up to the Bal,
St;more convention at which Mr.. Wilson was nomi-
mated are reviewed with considerable minuteness.
Among the subjects discussed is the attitude Of Mr..
Bryan. The writer says quite definitely that Mr..
Bryan ardently desired that nomination for himself,
and that he suggested to the then chairman Of the
party that he-Bryan-was the proper, person to be
voted for.
Mr.. Bryan has not been heard from on the sub
ject, but a communication from a close friend Of Mr..
Bryan has been published, the friend asserting fatty
that the statement made in the McCombs work is
false. It is quite possible that Mr.. Bryan's friend
may have volunteered this statement without sug-
gestion from any other person, but those who have
& passion for putting two and two together may find
the basis for an interesting exercise of their ingenui4
ty in the fact that Mr.. Bryan, attired in fresh and
gorgeous raiment, has just had his picture taken for
the first time since he left Washington several years
ago. It will be only a little over two years before
another presidential campaign is on in full blast, and
Mr.. Bryan has been in politics long enough to UNI
dsrstand the value of being on the spot when any
thing turns up.
