the business Of the country, and strength
ened credit of every kind But for this in
stitution which had been created in 1913 by
Democratic WISDOM foresight and patriotism,
this country Nigh have been visited with
unrestrained panic and unchecked disaster.
for the whole commercial and financial
structure of the universe was imperled by
tie raging flames Of Mars roaring across the
seas.
Defamation of Presidents
Woodrow Wilson, in war and in peace, in
triumph and in disaster, in sickness and in
health, in pleasure and in pain, in grief and
in gladness in solitude and in society, in Of
flee and in retirement, has been the target
of abuse. Washington and Lincoln had a
like experience when they were president,
only the denunciation of Wilson has been
merely a summers breeze compared with the
tornado of defamation and vilification that
swept over them.
So heniOus were the charges made against
Washington because of the Jay treaty with
Great Britain that he himself said the at
tacks were Gin terms so exaggerated and in
decent as could scarcely be applied to Nero,
a notorious defaulter, or even to a common
pickpocket'' The criticism of Wilson in con-
nection with the League of Nations is like
the voice of spring in comparison with the
storm of vulgar vituperation which beat
upon Washington the bitter discussion of
the question of the Endorsement by the gov
eminent of the Jay treaty progressed.
A New York newspaper uttered these
words on the day that Washington retired
from the presidency:
Let this day be proclaimed day of jubi-
lee throughout the nation. The name of
Washington ceases from this time to he a
synonym for corruption and to give currency
to political iniquity."
Here is another specimen of bllingsgate
that was hurled at the first president of this
republic, the great hero of American liberty.
History will be puzzled to know whether
Washington betrayed his character or ever
had any to betray''
Their Fame Shines
Here few illustrations of many ex,
pressions regarding President Lincoln:
Stambaugh, of Ohio, said: You might
search hell over and find none worse than
Abraham Lincoln" John Fuller, of Michi-
gan made this touching inquiry: Are you
willing to follow the perjured wretch who
has violated the oath he took before high
heaven to support the Constitution and pre-
serve the liberties Of the people?" c. Chaun-
cey Burr, of New York breathed this fra
grant sentiment: THE wonder is that men
carry out the orders of the gorilla tyrant
who has usurped the presidential chair"
Henry Clay Dean, f Iowa, in the course OF
a bitter attack, said: Il blush that such a
felon should occupy the highest gift of the
people. Perjury and larceny are written all
over him.
Despite these attacks, Washington's fame
shines today with imperishable glory, and he
Will forever live in the hearts of the Ameri-
can people as the Father of His Country. "
AT the north, where Lincoln was so fiercely
attacked, his memory is honored and revered
by the whole people. Time will brighten the
great and lofty qualities of Woodrow Will
yer let mankind forget the glory of his
achievements

The Daugherty Imfeachment

A T this distance the somewhat farcical
~ proceedings in the Daugherty i'm
parchment case would seem to teach,
If indeed they teach anything at all, the wis
dom of keeping political family rows out of
such affairs Without going extensively
into the merits of the case or of the fitness
of the Attorney General for his job, it seems
that Representative Keller started something
without sufficient groundwork to finish it.
and after a somewhat emotional display, and
efforts to obtrude political speeches at the
hearing, he has run short Of actual informa-
tion to convince tho committee that there
really is something in his case
The papers of Mr.. Kellers own state take
the attitude that he was putting up bluff
as the true exponent of the radical method"
One Republican paper, The Minneapolis
Tribune. suggests that the radical insistent-
ly believes that the proof of an allegation
rests solely on the ,ehemence with which it
is made.
Sadly enough, we are not without warrant
for this view, matter how cheering it
may be to the conventional reactionary. All
too often the hotter radicals rely on the
crash of headlines and the sound and fury of
big charges and big words, to put over
something which they sincerely may regard
as needed reform movement
Perhaps too the committee itself is part
1y to blame for the comic opera aspect of
the hearing.
Mr.. Keller's charges, whatever their merit
are serious; indeed, they are gravely impor-
mittee should not lave trifled with such
charges, either treating them seriously, or
else dismissing them summarily as too pre-
posterous to entertain on the information Of
fered.
A divergence of opinion also exists as t.
the purpose and true intent of impeachment
proceedings generally. Where some view an
Impeachment merely as an accusation, 9TH
ers take the position that it is one of the
tional powers of Congress. and it is not to
be undertaken save under the most urgent
circumstances.
This latter view seems the rational one,
and, in any event. effort to employ such
a methc-- to facilitate political mud-slinging
can be nothing short of ugly perversion of
constitutional procedure.

And it was in the original centers of civili-
zaton that this "ntagonism was most COM
p1etely developed. The barbaric Aryan peo-
pies, who became ultimately the masters of
all the ancient civilizations of the Orient
and of the western world, never passed
through a phase of temple rule on their way
to civilization; they came to civilization late;
they found that drama already half-played.
They took over the ideas of both temple and
kihgship, when these ideas were already
deliberately developed, from the more CIV
ilized Hamitic or Semitic people they con-
quered.
The greater Importance Of the gods and
the priests in the earlier history of the
Mesopotaman civilization is very apparent,
but gradually the palace won its way until
it was at last in a position to struggle defi-
nitely for the supreme power.
At first, in the story, the palace Is igno-
rant and friendless in the face of the temple;
the priests alone read, the priest alone
know the people are afraid of them. But in
the discussions of the various cults comes
the opportunity of the palace. From other
cities, from among captives, from defeated
or suppressed religious cults, the palace gets
men who also can read and who can do
magic things. ..."S =
The Culture of the Court
The court also becomes a center of writ
ing and record; the king thinks for himself
and becomes polite. Traders and foreigners
drift to the court, and if the king has not the
full records and the finished scholarship of
the priests, he has wider and fresher first
hand knowledge of many things.
The priest comes into the temple when he
is very young; he passes many years as a
neophyte; the path of learning the clumsy
letters of primitive times is slow and toll
some; he becomes erudite and prejudced
rather than man of the world. Some of
the more active-minded young priests may
even cast envious eyes at the kings service.
| There are many complications and varia-
tions in this ages-long drama of the struggle
| going on beneath the outward conflicts of
priest and king, between the made man and
the born man, between learning and
originality, between established knowledge
and settled usage on the one hand and crea-
tive will and imagination on the other. 1t
is not always as we shall find later, the
priest who is the conservative and unimagi
native antagonist. Sometimes a king strug-
giles against narrow and obstructive priest
hoods; sometimes priesthoods uphold the
standards of civilization against savage, ego
tistcal or reactionary kings.
One two outstanding facts and Incl
dents of the early stages of this fundamental
struggle in political affairs are all that we
can note here between 1000 B. G.. and the
days of Alexander.

National Record Contrad;cteo

TT Is not far from slandering the national
record of the United States for an
authentic White House statement to is
sue, recently 1t did issue, that "the foreign
policy of this country which has prevailed
since the founding OF the Republic was a
pretty wise one, that the United States could
not take on its shoulders the responsibility
of correcting the rest of the world"
The debate as to the wisdom of the policy
in question is or appears to be entirely hope
less. But surely it is not the traditional pol
icy of the United States to gloat over its
isols~-on, sare,y and wealth. in the fact Of
disasters abroad.
Running back along the "time line" OF
history, it occurs to that a Republican
