True, the Judge showed flash of his old pessimism

Very likely it won't be many months before the Judge
begins sing the praises Of the 8hour day Forgotten

A practical thing is a municipal
union of the two cities. This idea Is
gaining Roadway and may be expect
ed to come to the front as a leading
question at some campaign in the neai
future. There are many advantages
to be gained by uniting the two cities
under one government. Instead OF
getting even for fancied sights that
have already become a matter Of ira
dition such a union would SAVIOR OF
the aspect of forgetting an old
grudge. 1t would be economy in adj
ministration of civic affairs. II would
solve Urbana's problem of developing
Crystal Lake Park into an institution
worthy of the name. 1t would de.
crease taxation and would give the
new city greater prestige in the
state.

Petitions of Champaign property
owners asking that the east side be
annexed to Urbana are said to be
circulating in section of First street
where the property owners are dis
satisfied with the plans of the Illinois
Central railroad which they feel, ac-
cording to the report, shuts them off
from communication and ready access
to the West Side.
Just how far such petitions will get
depends upon how general the dis
satisfaction is, and upon the general
feeling regarding the advantages sup
posed to be gained by such decided
change in boundaries between the two
cities.
If 1t could be shown that there are
advantages to be gained in having this
section of Champaign annexed to Ur-
bana the petitions might gain head
way enough to put the project over,
particularly If the vote of Urbana is
found to favor it. A solid vote in
favor Of the proposal is by no means
certain in Urbana, and from surface
view of the question it is exceedingly
doubtful if any large number of east
side residents and property owners
could be massed to favor the plan.
From the general aspects, so far
as the question has been investigated
by The Review, there seems little
probability that the movement will
gain Roadway. Efforts to learn who
is fathering the petition have so far
been futile. If this could be known
the truth would have bearing either
upon the success or failure of the
effort.
Individual property owners may
feel that they have reason to COM
Llain of treatment accorded them by
the West Side.
The East Side business section has
suffered through the plans of the
Illinois Central improvement which
were endorsed by West Side business
men. The lack of subway at Main
street is the crowning error for which
many West Side merchants repented
when it became too late to rectify the
mistake. There seems now no hope
of the East Side recovering from the
effects of this blunder.
But it seems an obvious fact that
the Illinois Central company intended
removing the station site to a point

The difficulty encountered by Off.
GERS in attempting to enforce the
Volstead act is a thing that disturbs
some people. 1t should not. No Law
has ever been rigidly enforced-at
least not to the extent we would like
to see law enforced.
The decalogue is no exception. Who
knows of a time when the commands
Of Moses were rigidly enforced even
by the race who first recognized
them as the standard of law? The
decalogue is written upon the con-
sciences of men in all civilized coun-
tries. Yet the violations of this great
moral code are general throughout the
world.
The Magma Charta was not strictly
enforced under King John, and was
only in slight degree, productive of
the good that was hoped for. Hun
dreds of years passed before demo-
cratic country like America evolved
out of the idea born under the Great
Charter.
For this reason 1t appears futile
for prohibitionists to expect that a
law such as the Volstead act will be
enforced to the letter. Amy statement
Of politicians to the effect that they
will enforce this law must be taken
with grain of salt in view of 5000
years of history which says emphati-
cally that law enforcement in any
line depends upon the evolution of
conscience.

Won't Lower Rates.

Washington, Nov. 10.--Railroad ex-
ecutives representing nearly all the
nations large railway systems, have
notified the interstate commerce COM
mission that they are unable TO grant
voluntary reduction in freight rates
on grain for export, which President
Coolidge recently suggested.
The rail officials state that a reduc-
ton in grain rates would not benefit
American farmers, principally be.
cause Canadian roads would imme-
diately follow the policy of cutting
rates to the seaboard, as they have In
the past.

In enforcing such a law as the
Volstead act the officers of the law
deal largely with the supply. 1t is a
practical impossibility for them to
deal with the demand. The demand
is eliminated by education and moral
evolution.
When the prohibitionists passed the
Volstead act they thought their work
finished. There was nothing else to
do apparently. They had cut off the
supply and that seemed sufficient. But
they did not take into account the
