The Bio and Little Lenines

Ienine. who has been able by his energy and self
conscious greatness to impose his will 10000
600 of people, has demonstrated in the ruin of Russia
what fanaticisrn without Judgment can accomplish.
The Kansas City Star observes: 'Lenna' thought
he could make the race march to his theories. He
discarded the teachings of experience. He ignored
the fundamentals of human nature. He attempted
to construct an artificial world based what he
conceived to be pure reason Colossal failure is the
outcome"
But Lenine has failed in big way only as
thousands of other who have disregarded human
nature have failed in small ways. Greenwich Village
in New and every city and village in the country
has its little. pygmy Lenines, who discard all human
experience for something and unhefard Of 1t
was as reasonable for Lenine to suppose that with
his confidence in himself he could accomplish world
revolution overturn the existing order, as 1t is
little Lenines to imagine that they accom-
plish foolish little thing which is
trary to human experience and human nature.

Refunding Government Bonds

war-the bond buyer and not the
government is the one who has
broken the contract. The govern
ment said: Lend me 500 for 10
years." If the government pays back
that $500 at the end of the 10 years,
it's part of the bargain has not been
broken. And in addition it has paid
interest regularly. But in many
cases the bond buyer has said: II
want my money back. I didn't really
mean you could keep it for 10 years
whether there was war or not"
So this bond buyer has sold his bond
Many did this, which as a matter of
course resulted in a lower price in the
open market for the bonds. The
market price has nothing to do with
the original bargain between the gov
ernment and the bond buyer.
Despite the fact that the prices of
some issues sagged because the hold
ers asked for their money back, bond
prices are all on the up grade and
will continue so until all have
reached a price above par-that is,
above the face value. People will pay
a premium for the privilege of being
a creditor of the government and re-
ceiving the interest which is paid.
The lowest point reached on the
war loans was price of S1.40 for the
fourth Liberty loan on May 20, 1920
The highest price so far was paid on
Aug. 81, 1918-102.50 for the first
Liberty loan. Since the armistice all
issues have be IN below par and some
of the issues more than l5 points
below, hut now half of the issues are
!. 100 or nj eve and all are within
or 3 POINTS of par The recovery
has been eXt, t,emely rapid and is re-
5dreied as an indi alton oe the sound
condition of the United States treas
ury and the general prosperity Of the
country.
The treasury has benefited to some
txtent by the breaking of the bargain
by the hondaolGers who sold their
bonds. 1t has bought back bonds at
prices below their face. Thus, under
the sinking fund provisions of the
law the treasury had purchased UP
to the date of the last report of the
secretary of the treasury bonds of
face value of $154, $780, 800 at a mar
ket cost of but $146, ,9S9,976. Under
a special bond repurchase provision.
additional purchases have been made
of bonds to a face value of S70,3I5,S00
at market cost of $69, ,37S,257.
In comparison with wealth and
population. the American treasury is
in far better condition than that of
any nation in the world and while
the treasury will have to be skillful
in handling the $5,000,000, 600 finance
ing job of the next IL months, there
is no doubt that the work will be ac-
complished.

SACRIFICE
BY BERToN BRALEY

Her children were her all-n-al
She gave her time and thought to them,
Her. dreams, her visions great and small,
Her hearts deep love she brought to themI
Unselfishy her strength she gave
To make them snugger, cosier,
She made herself willing slave
That they might find life roster.
She gave up all the things that make
Life merrier and breezier
Believing that she thus might make
Her childrens progress easier;
She scrmped and saved and toiled and drudged
Through years and years laborious
And by the neighbors she was judged
A mother meritorious.
But when her labors reviewed
With calm judicial clarity,
We find she's raised a selfish brood
Sans thoughtfulness or charity;
Her children took but gave
And selfshness thus grew in them,
Self sacrifice made her slave
And only served to ruin themi

TRADE PROSPECT ON
BAL TIC STARTS RUSH

RIGA, May 1S-(Via A. P. Mail)
More friendly attention has been
heaped upon the Baltic states by
various European powers since the
Rapallo treaty, the trade agreement
between Russia and Germany, was
signed April II last, than during all
the time since their creation by the
Treaty of Versailles. This is because
of the geographical position of the
states, forming as they do the most
accessible bridge" between Russia
and Germany.
Shortly after the signing the Ger
mans started the ball rolling by
"hand shaking" expedition headed by
Herr Blucher, Berlins commissioner
for the Baltic. Herr Blucher visited
Kovno. where he spent several days
with the Lithuanans, thence on to
Riga for conferences with the Lat
vians, giving assurances in Riga, as
he did in Kovno, of Germany's
friendly and peaceful intentions
which, in the end, would bring only
good, economically and otherwise. for
the young republics which lie be-
tween East Prussia and Russia.
From Riga, Herr Blucher went to
Reval on the same mission. and af-
terward to Helsingfors, holding con-
ferences in each place. The Ger
mans in May inaugurated an air.
plane service connecting the capitals
of the new Baltic states with Koe-
nigsberg in East Prussia, whence
there is aerial service direct to Ber-
lin. The Germans also are planning
to improve the Baltic railroad SER
vice which, indirectly, connects Ber
lin with Moscow.
Upon the heels of the Blucher mis-
sion quickly came the recognition de
jure of Lithuania by France. and
since then French missions of var
ious kinds have been pouring into
Kovno. arranging for the opening of
trade relations on a most friendly
basis. Now France and Germany
are vieing with each other to curry
Lithuania's favor.
The French missions in Riga and
Esthonia have increased their per-
sonnel. and 20 leading French manu-
facturers will participate in Riga's
approaching trade show. The French
exhibits are to arrive on special
steamships, and the show will be Wis
tied by delegations of business men
and several members of the French
Parliament. The French National
Bank of Commerce had sent repre-
sentative to Riga to establish connec-
tions with Latvian capitalists. Two
French destroyers are making cour-
tesy visits to Riga, Reval and Hell
singfors.
The British have not been far be-
hind. They have sent many mis-
sions to the Baltic states, and Lon
don and Manchester business men
are seen in all the principal cities.

OF course, this chemical analysis
is a general one. There are excep-
tions. Here and there IN the United
States is a man worth much more
than 9S cents Now and then you
may find one worth $l.25.
Some men are better soap pros
poets than others. You'd get very lit
tie soap, for instance, from a thin lit
tie man like Will Hays or Joe Can
non, hardly enough to pay for the
bother, in fact. But man Of the
portly dimensions OF Chief Justice
Taft or Big Bill Edwards would be
a good investment for any soap
maker.
Fatty Arbuckle would be worth his
weight n soap--if very little else.
And just about now that seems the
only avenue of profit open to him.
The type or soap varies with tne
man. A diplomat, Lloyd George. Ar
thur Balfour, or any of that type,
would produce, very largely, soft
soap.
A New York or Chicago politician
would produce very little soap: he's
made almost entirely OF brass. IL It
were possible to boil down the aver
age politician you'd find in addition
to the fat, brass, iron. lime. carbon,

A CORRECTIONS!

In the early History Of Lafayette
County" in the Eagle last week, few
errors crept in which we wish to cor
rect. The first, in the first column at
the bottom of sixth paragraph in
spelling mans name: "Welup" it
should have been "Wiley." In the
second column at the top of first pa
ragraph the word "stone house"
should have been "store house" And
at the top of the second paragraph in
second line of the second column, is
the word: "made of rock" This
should have been "made of logs" In
the third column in the fourth pa
ragraph, it appears: "Rev. S. G.
Borney," this should read "Rev. S. G.
Burney," and in the next line follow
ing it reads "Col.- JONES' 1t should
be "Col. James"
Further articles will appear in later
issues of the Eagle.
