SENTIMENTALISM DANGEROUS
PlAYTHING

Ideals are essential to any sort Of
politics worth while. but sentiment
alism is a double edged and danger
GUS plnything. 1t lent itself to the
Democratic Platforms attitude tow
ard the methods proposed for
maintaining the peace.
Unmistakably there was something
mouth Milling in the demand for the
fulnlment Of President Wilson's ar
bItral award concerning Armenia"
assembled would see justice done to
poor, long suffering and martyred
Armenia. The grip of the blood
thirsty Turk on the fair throat of
that outraged country should be
loosened. Bryan stands ready to
pour himself In exaltation champion
ing the cause of ravaged Armenia
and in the same breath denounce
war.
But just how would Bryan or any
other sentimentalist secure the full
fllment OF the aforesaid arbitral
award? We had no war with Tur-
key. but we would have one. a war
OF aggression were we to undertake
to enforce the award and maintain
It; no room for doubt about that.
Now. prior to making this demand
planks had been adopted which de-
clared war justiiable only as n
measure of self defense" also that
going TO war should be decided by
referendum. In other words n po-
litical convention would make de-
mands leading to war. would insist
that such war would be uniustiii-
able.
Bryan never hesitsted to scnti-
mentaiize. seemingly incapable Of
logical conclusions. The platform
bears his earmarks. Whether Bryan
was responsible we do not yet know,
but IL not. those. who were. are fit
ting disciples of his. His vision easily
sees millions flying to arms over
night with nothing but broomstiCks
to hy to and no finger lifted to pro-
vide so much as a supper of corn
meal mush for the flying squadrons
Among the dictionary's definitions of
"sentimentslism' is. the aftecta ton
OF sentimentality that characterized
the writings of the theorists preced-
ing the French revolution"

been proclaimed. II is proposed
that on that occasion We try some
thing which to date has not been
extensively or intensively tried in
New England: think OF New Eng
land. talk about New England. study
the attractions New England has TO
offsr, the goods she has to sell. and
which we ousht 20 buy in place OF
those produced elsewhere.
II is time something like this was
undertaken, time that New Eng
lands good sslesmen sold New Eng
land 10 the New Englanders. They
surely have something to sell. no
end OF sood things to be said about
st. We should be proud TO put the

There are problems to be solved.
How set more orders for New Eng
land goods, how intensity produc-

costs OF our wares. What has be-
come OF New England brains, the

WOMEN WHO LOOK OLD

In many cases they are not old in
years, but because they are over
worked, over-tired, nervous and run
down. ailments have developed pc
culiar to their sex and this condition
makes them look years older than
they actually are. Such women should
consider the remarkable record held
by Lydia E. Pinkham's Vegetable
Compound. In a recent canvass

Indictments and Facts
washington Post)


The indictment Of the principals in
the oil scandals will doubtless he
seized upon by the Democrat tic
standard bearers a proof Of corrup-
ton. An indictment in the United
States is usually accepted as proof
Of guilt, although there are many
cases on record in which indictments
have done gross injustice 10 limo
cent men. Such was the indictment
against Senator Borah. Of Idaho.
some years ago and such, probably.
is the indictment that has been
found against Senator Wheeler. Of
Montana. The legal assumption that
man is innocent until proved guilty
is too often set aside by the public
when an indictment is found. This
fact will be utilized by Democratic
speakers during this campaign, as it
viii be impossible to conclude the
trials Of the indicted men before cleo
tjon day.

ity plank naming the ku kluX Khan
which he had submitted to the Dem :
ocvatic convention. The Khan issue
was indeed a family debate; the Pat
tangall difference epitomized the di-
vision that split so many delegations.
Unfortunately dissent was not COM

Mrs. Pattangalrs vote was the
more remarkable since she must have

Apparently she gave due weight to
her husbands advice to his hearers

Maine Democrats are accustomed
to the experience Of not having their
