TOO EIASTY JUDGMENT

The / ampa Tribune judges too hastily when
it denounces as "sush and rot the comments of
the press on the Sioux City, Iowa, woman who is
marching on foot to the White House to present
a petition for the pardon of her son who is in
federal prison in Leavenworth. Quoting the Jack
scnvile Metropolis which says. 1T is love, pure
love. that prompts this mother to tramp her way
to the White House to plead the cause of her way
ward son." the Tribune says:
1t is no such thing! 1t is love which prompts
this and every other mother to plead for the
pardon of a hayward son. and to give up her
life if necessary for his good; but it is pure
sensationasm which prompts any woman to
tramp her way to the White House. when
trains running, and a tender-hearted
public would gladly supply the means for her
comfortable travel thither.
The Tribune's argument recalls that of GER
tain royal digni;ary who thought if the people
couldn't get bread they should put up with cake.
There are plenty of mothers in Sioux City, as we'll
as in every other city of a hundred thousand peo-
pie, who have not the price of railroad ticket
to Washington, D. c. And. until sympathy is
actually aroused it is extremely difficult to enlist
the aid of the tender-hcarted public" in raising the
required amount. We fancy it would take about
as long even in Tampa, and require fully as many
steps, to secure enough to pay for such trip, as
it would to walk to Washington, if the solicitor
were simply an unknown, poverty-stricken woman,
whose only claim to sympathy was that her son
was in prison and she wanted him out.
Without further particulars as to the actual
facts, any assumptions are unwananted; but if
guessing is in order, ours is that she pracdced good
pedal economy in refusing to wait for her generous
neighbors TO set up the passage money.

MY BEAUTIFUL AUNT

Aunt Julia was beauty, men said in bygone
days. and hatterers galooty were throwing her
bouquets. They said that she was queenly the
fairest of her sex; when she went by serenely
the other girls seemed wrecks. Wherever Julia
trotted the nosegays came her way, and fatterers
besotted were praising her all day. The poet
wrote his sonnet all burdened by his wreath,
about her boots and bonnet, her eyeballs and her
teeth And so she grew up feeling she was di.
vinely fair; she would not mop the ceiling or
clean the cellar STAIR And she was high and
naughty, she would not toll or spin, or with
swatter swatty hit flies upon the chin. Connected
and disdainfu she scorned the household law
and left impressions painful upon her pa and ma
She turned down may suitors, her townsmen
good and true, corn DOCTORS clerks and tutors
and taxidermists, too. Some prince would come
and wed her, she figured, in her pride; long, long
such visions fed her, and warmed her up inside
Alas, there came no princes, and she'd be glad
to wed the clerks and other ounces who loved
in years long dead. She finds old age SO dreary
that all its moments hurt, and she is sick and
weary, disilusioned skirt My other aunts are
dingers, they were not spoiled with praise, and
as they turn their wringers they carol joyful

have punched some thoughts together to be

One is this that nasty weather won't be nasty

And anothers that complaining over what is past
and done
Never helps us to be gaining pleasures waiting
to be won;
When it seems as if I'm friendess, pull up and
say: "Old Scout,
You've a solace that is endless; brace yourself
and work it out"
decline to listen slyly if men whisper when I'm
near;
If they don't speak of me highly I'll feel better
not to hear
I've some thoughts that am keeping to be used
in times of need:
1t is foolish to be weeping when ones hurts have
ceased to bleed.
When the chance I've taken fails me and my
plans are strewn about
There's a sure care for what ails me: can al
ways work it out
have found that fearful fretting never helps to
get things right,
And I'm practicing forgetting when remembrance
leads to spite;
Here's another thought I'm saving for the chilly,
rainy day;
There is no gain in behaving in helpless, hope.

When existence seems to bore me, all my pleas

GERMANY AND RUSSIA

1t is easy to understand the feelings of Germany
for Russia. While the Teuton has no Unborn love
for the Slav. TIE German. who feels that he is
handicapped by the limitations placed upon his
own faherlard, looks with longing eye toward the
great plains farther east, where. if he had full
sway he could build up in a few generations an
empire bigger than the boundaries of Germany
would ever hold.
This sentiment is the father of the newborn af-
lection Of Germans for Russians. To what ex-
tent is influencing plans for tie future is ndicat-
ed in a recent statement of Count Tosto son of
the great writer. He says:
Do you know that in every German town
Russian is being studied furously? Every
class where our language is taught is crowd
ed; young and Old men and women, every
body is learning the language of the people
with whom they mean to unite They say
that they going to make Russia the great
power of the future. That she will owe her
salvation to them that it is by them that they
will conquer the world.
This is genuine foresight 1t looks forward to
a time when Russia shall begin rebuilding what
war and famine have destroyed. 1t takes for
worlds great nations shall be established on Rus
sian SOIL And this view is sound. Sorrow en-
dureth for a night" but the Russian dawn is as
sure as the sunrise. And Germany is wise enough
to foresee that this dawn will probably come, not
through another violent revolution, as would be
the case in any Latin country. but through the
evolution OF the present government. Despite their
reputation for radicalsm, the Russians are the
most conservative people in the world, and having
IN their own hands form of government which
is, at least susceptible to popular CONTROL they
will cling to it and transform it gradually as the
necessity for change appears
Sovietism today is quite different from what it
was four years ago. and four years hence will
see other changes, but it will be growth rather
than rebuilding. Recognizing that the Germans
are wasting no time inveighing against boIshevism
But why should they be permitted to be Rus
sias only friends This country has no grievance
against the Russians. On the contrary friendly
relations have always prevailed between the Amer
lean and the Russian people. Instead of standing
eft with "holler-than-thou" expression on our
faces, it would be good business as we'll as sound
politics and morality, to cultivate better under
standing We need not wait for Europe to lead
the way he way to head off Germanys plans
Is to play The same game to better advantage than
she can play it.

FRANCE AND GENOA CONFERENCE

1t patient suffering with dangerous disease
should call conference Of physicians to prescribe
tor him and stipulate that if any doctor even sug-
gested that he might have Brights disease he would
rePudlate the whole treatment, the average person
would say off hand that he was fool
Yet that is exactly what Monsieur Poincare,
the new French premier, is announcing as the pol
icy of the French government.
Unless everybody connected with the Genoa
conference will agree in advance not to raise any
question directly or indirectly about the Versailles
treaty. he will have nothing to do with it.
Now the purpose of the conference, as the
world understands it, is to try to find out what
Is the matter with Europe. and to discover rene
dies for its relief. A great many people believe
that the Versailles treaty. with its vindctive and
impossible conditions. is the one great obstacle in
the way of European recovery. That may or NAV
not be true. but surely, in any economic clinic that
makes any pretensions to accurate diagnosis, it is
factor to be considered.
A crazy man might be so in love with his can
Ger that he would insist upon being cured without
cutting it OUT but such man would be treated
as lunatic, and his welfare given precedence
over his will. There can be no permanent settle
ment ct the war until some set of powers get to-
sether and place the common good of Europe
ahead Of the ambitions and revenge of any single

PRACTICAL FINANCE
(New York Times.)

Nobody has objected to Henry Fords practical
finance, and nobody is likely to. He has made"
his own money by economies in production which
have not been robbery" or exploitation" of Ia
Dor. The country is more enriched by such fl
nance than Mr.. Ford. This accomplishment is
mentioned because Of its bearing current
problems, and for the sake of calling it to the at
tention of those who may also approve Mr. Ford's
theory of unlimited issues Of money based on
hopes of realizing at some future time economic
enterprises
In an interview published on Saturday Mr..
Ford said that his bank balance between
$135, 900 and $145,0O0000 Until it is con-
tradicted, that may pass as the greatest bank
balance ever held by woman, and he
thinks that his enterprises could be capitalized
at billion. Moreover,
my property consists of about $100,00O,0O0
worth of buildings S1O0, 100000 worth of machin-
cry, and something more than $1OO00O,oOO in
cash. AS a going concern, have no doubt that
these assets could be capitalized and sold for a
billion dollars But this $121, O00 000 whatever
it is that we have in the bank means nothing to
nae except a tool with which to work. l might
liken it to the fywheel on an engine, the belt
from a motor to a machine, or to the wire that
feeds electricity to a trolley car. big balance
is required TO keep our wheels going. we pay
wages amounting to 100000 day and ma.
teral costs us $75O,OOO day. Our bank balance
is therefort sucient to pay operating expenses
for only about 100 days. All the money that comes
to me goes into new industries. 1 never invest
money in bonds or anything of the kind.
"Al the money that comes to me goes into
new industries" and the excess profits tax took
from him last year s76,OOOOOO He says it. The
treasury did not leak. 1t would not be practical
BILE to exempt from the excess profits taxes all in
Mr. Ford's class, and there may be differences OF
opinion how many there are. There can be no
difference of opinion that there are enough to ex-
| plain much of the depression in industry which
causes our banks to put their resources undersir-
ably into good bond investments, because they
cannot lend them to those who follow in Mr.
Fords footsteps at however long an interval.
And seventeen years ago. according to Mr.. Fords
| interview with Mr.. Babson, he could not get
trusted in a bank for means to buy Thanksgiv-
| ing dinner-New York Times.

ASKING TOO MUCH
(St. Petersburg independently

Admitting that there are "similarities" between
the four-power treaty and the League of Nations,
the New York Tribune sternly rebukes those who
call attention to this fact and asks: "s it helpful
to stimulate the idea that Article Y, wearing a
mask, has come back?"
What does our Republican friend expect OF
Democrats, or from friends Of the League Of Ma
lions who may not be Democrats? They in
vited to forget about the partisanship shown by
certain Republican senators in killing the League
of Nations, SO far as American participation
therein is concerned, and then to help those
same Republican senators to enact substitute
for the league They are willing to do this
most of them are. But the Tribune, speaking as
Republican organ, says that Democrats may
help, and should help but they should not say
a single word in their own justification, because
that might cause few suspicious Republicans
to bolt off the reservation.
WE'LL that is asking more than can be granted.
Nor should Democrats be willing to help at all
unless they were convinced that the object
sought through this later treaty is substantially
the object for which they formerly contended.
The fact is that the League Of Nations and the
four-power agreement should not be partisan
issues at all, but should stand upon their merits.
The trouble all along is that they have been
made the footballs of partisanship, and have been
kicked here there for party advantage.

THE HIGHWAY IN THE WORLDS
WAV

THE HIGHWAY IN THE WORLDS
WAY
The highway marches sturdily, to
market-town and mill,
But l would find little road that
loiters UP hill
A little vagrant, woodland road, grey
ribboned through the green,
Where Jerry brambles bar tho way
and orchard elders lean.
The highway is the worlds way, but
l would drop behind
To follow little Turing paths that only
laggards find.
The challenge of the bandit weeds
the tilt with startled bees,
What can the dusty highway give for
journeyings like these?
