DE VALERA AND LEE.

An editorial in the New York Times,
commenting on De Valera's unhappy per-
sistence in guerilla warfare, points him
to Robert E. Lee as study in real
greatness in defeat The pity of it is
that while many people other than the
impetuous Irishman will see the aptness
of the illustration, he may miss it.
The cause which Lee led was just as
dear to him as that of De Valera is to
him. When the South was finally de-
feated. Lee had no lack of urging to go
on with a bush warfare, killing off as
many Yankees as might be, and keep
ing the Confederate cause green. The
great leader knew such counsel was mis-
taken There was no hope for the South
in further battle She had fought hon
orably and been honorably overcome. To
continue fighting by small handfuls was
only to sacrifice in a vain cause lives
which might better be spared for active
citizenship.
The South needed healing, restoring.
Lee accepted the truth, and sorrowfully
but greatly he led his men, who would
have followed him to death, back to life.

SOMETHING TO REPAIR.

In spite of pressing affairs at home,
a lively interest centers in the confer
ence of allied statesmen in session in
London. 1t is hoped greatly that out of
this conference there may come the long
delayed coherent plan for the economic
restoration of Europe. Whether there
does or not viii depend upon whether
politics or economics really engages the
center of the stage.
1t is only through repeated confer
ences that a clearance of the situation
can come In the meantime there is one
fundamental fact which should not be
forgotten in Europe or over here. That
is, that where responsibility for the war
rests, there also rests the burden of pay
ment for the war. Another is that Ger
many emerged from the war with prac-
ticalIy unchanged economic machine
which she has wrecked since.
The head of the Belgian delegation,
NJ Jaspar, puts the case neatly. 1--WE
are making every possible sacrifice" he
explains. but immediate reparation is
necessary, not for pleasure but because
there is something to repair" This lit
tie fact is sometimes obscured in all the
talk about it, but it remains fact just
the same.

Silent Before EIection
(Rutland HeraId.)


If the old-fashioned debating clubs
could be revived what an opportunity
would be afforded to practically compel
candidates for the legislature to con-
vince their prospective constituents of
their iitness for the honors they seek.
One never hears of candidate for the
house of representatives in Vermont do
ing anything in the line of public speak
ing. The candidate writes a letter,
sometimes. to a newspaper and sets forth
some hobby but never thinks of getting
the voters together in the town hall or
schoolhouse and telling them why he
believes he should be sent to Montpelier.
Possibly some aspirants for a seat in
the legislature are better strategists than
we imagine by keeping silent. 1t is not
unlikely that some of the men who will
be sent to the legislature this fall would
encourage opposition should they at
tempt to explain why they seek election.
The Herald would not encourage the
debaters in legislative halls but does be-
heye it would be fairer to the voters IT
an aspirant faced them from a platform
and gave them his ideas regarding the
problems he must face, if elected. than
II would be if he does his talking after
he gets to Montpelier.
When one attempts to interview a
candidate for the legislature in almost
any town where the aspirant has no OPP
position it would seem that the man who
seeks election believes the voters have no
right to know his mind on public ques-
tions until he is sure of his seat.
