Debate thy cause with thy neight-or himself; and dlscover not a secret to another. Proverbs 25:9. An Open Door •jN 1918, American citlzens. through their votes at thè I. congressional elections, practlcally repudiated thè Democratic party and tts lenders. In 1920, they made It unanimous by electing President Harding and an overwhelmingly Republican Congres s. Now, In 1922, Hr.rdlng and his Republican followers In their turn stand iargely repudiated. The ballot record tells a signlflcaut story. Having “given thè gate” to both old parties In rapid succession, thè American people have perhaps shown that they are through with thè old system of two-party “regular” government altogether. There must be somethlng very reai in thè minds of a vast body of our people that nelther of thè old parties can touch. Maybe it is some idea of progress or personal liberty or thè rlghts of citizens. Anyway, it certatnly is not any such long debated issue as thè tarift or “more business in government." The door is wide open for a third party or independent ticket in 1924, including candidates for all offices right up to thè presldency. This is not an inritation, but a prediction. It is not thè business of a newspaper editor to nominate politicai leaders, either for old parties or new ones. It is, however, an editor’s business at a time like this to point out thè news fact that in thè politicai fleld there is a first rate opening for <i “bright young man” or men. Beware — Cancer! ONE woman in eight and one* man in fourteen dies of cancer. So thè public should gladly gire deep thought to thè medicai warnings and advice circulated during Cancer week, Nov. 12-18. Here are thè important faets you should know about this dread disease: 1. Cancer usually is caused br chronic irritatlon, particularly of thè stomaeh. Thirty per cent of cancers in men and 21 per cent in women are in thè stomaeh. 2. Cancer is not eontagious. It is not a germ disease. 3. Cancer is not hereditary, though a person may inherit a “tendeney” or physical weakness which, not safeguarded. may enable cancer to develop easlly. 4. Cancer, taken in thè early stages, often is curable in thè hands of medicai experts. Radium ls working wonders in this line. So is surgerv. Dr. Francis Carter Wood, director of thè Columbia University Institute of Cancer Research, learned this: Between thè a?es of 15 and 19, only one person in 250,000 dies of cancer. Between 20 and 24, only one person in 200.000. Between 25 and 84, one man in 10,000 and one woman in 5,000 dies of cancer. And so thè rate rises until. between thè ages of 65 and 75, one man in 200 and one woman in 150 dies of cancer. Thus cancer is especially.dangerous in middle-age and aster. But thè irritation or other cause of cancer often starts much earlier, so no one is immune, and all should be on their guard. As with other diseases, a periodical physical examination by a skilled physician is thè best safeguard against cancer.

A Growing Menace MAXY people ho look upon thè Ku-Klux Klan as a danger, and many more who regard lt a 3 a ridiculous and pestiferous nuisance, will stili look upon thè course taken bv Governor Alien of Kansas in seeking tc put lt and keep it out of his State as stili more dangerous than thè Kìan itself. Ile is trying to do it by injunction. Now If thè acts of thè Ku-Klux Klan are offenses against thè laws—not thè courts, but thè laws—of Kansas and are denounced in thè statutes of thè State. they can be punished by ordinary criminal proceedings. If they are new tbings whlch thè Legislature has not provided against. there will be othe.* Legisiatures which are free to enact laws describing these offenses and providlng for their ounishment This is thè orderly, democratic and American way of doing thè thlng. If thè criminal laws do not provide for such crlmes or their punishment, tben there are no such cnmes. If thè courta of Kansas now make oniera that such acts shall not be dcne. they are acting as thè goverumont of thè State, and not aa lts courta. They make rules against certain acts, and make crlmes of acts which. !n thè eves of thè >aw, are legai. They, and not thè Legislature, begin to enact thè criminal law of thè Staffe. They turo legally innocent acts into offenses punishable by fine and imprisonment, not aster conviction by a jury, but by order of thè judges themselves. Such judicial policies a. e revo'.utionary. They are a danger to liberty. The fact that a man is not guilty of contempt of court who violatea an order of court which thè court had no authority to make does not mucfi lessen thè danger; for courts are thè judges of their own jurisdlction, thè thirst for power la their weakness. The tn'schief of thè Ku-Klux Klan is one which thè common mind mav plainly see. The mischief done bv courts and by Governors who appeal to courts to do mischief that good may cerne of it, is clothed in garments of dignity and respectability. Of thè two, thè lattee seems to us thè more dangerous by reason of this very fact. The time is approaching when enr national and State governments must face thè problem of curbing by statute thè injunction power of courts. It is a growing menace to thè liberties of thè people. V'tlkelm “Plays Emperor ** A NT) so they were married. We don’t know whetber or not Wilhelm and Hermlnle will live happlly ever afterward. and it doesn’t matter much. In thè eleetion exeltement we’d almost overlooked Wllhelm’s wedding. But in bis Lilliputian empire, a mile and a half square, surrounded by barbed wire, Wilhelm had a wedding aster his own heart. Swash-buckling, heel : i cllcking Prussian ofllcers, thè same that shoved women and children into thè Street in thè old days. royal guarda, not his own, it is trae, but some just as good loaned by thè obliging Dutch Queen, and everything.

Butto Wilhelm, raclng in high powered Mercedes can, from one “castle" to thè other. each flying thè Prussian imperiai eagle, it was just as royal as speedIng back and forth on Unter Den Linden. For Wilhelm was “playing emperor.” We poke no fun at this senile old man, who chose to style hla bride "Tour Majesty,” and to instali her as “Empress,” albelt he formally renounced his tltles both

Leave thè laughing to those who lined thè barbed wire fence in thè drenching rain to witness thè farce at Doorn. What Wilhelm thinks we care not. But thè motives behind thè salaams of those gayly bedecked Junkers. when they addressed thè former Kaiser as “Al] Highest,” are scmething else again. To Germans, Wilhelm’s wedding serves as a waruing that thè powerful mllitary order which pushed thè house of Hohenzollern into thè most terrible war thè world has known, is not dead yet. It stili schemes for “Der Tag.” “Of interest to Women” IN an article In tha General Federation News, thè officiai bulletin of thè General Federation of Women’s Clubs, Alice Aimes Winter, president of thè Federation, has thè follirwing to say about thè Woman's News Service, which will operate for thè first time in January: “We are all ready not only to watch it (thè Woman’s News Service) with interest, butto come to Its active support in our own communities by urging papers to give us thè actual news of thè work women are doing over thè world instead of much of thè twaddle that is now served to us as ‘of interest to women in thè pages of thè press.” It is an accepted fact that thè majority cf newspapers are willing and anxious to give their publics what they are interested in, and it can easiiy be seen by scanning repre6entative papers that they prize any news of women’s deeds as much or more than anything a man can dp. Nevertheless, it must be recognized that a large per cent of women stili are interested in such little Services as recipes, styles, household hints, interior decorating plans and gardening which most papers give them. As long as women are home makers they will continue to be interested in such “twaddle,” if Mrs. Winter wishes to consider it such. Let us see thè paper that would care to ignore a work done by a woman of lmportance over thè world. We know of none. Permit Usto Say Skinny people never forget to pulì down thè shades at night.

Al’Smith’s Victory in New York Was Personal as Well as Party Triumph

By E. il. THIERRY, By NEA Et reta: NEW YORK, Nov. 9.—“ Al” Smlth’B election as Governor of New York — : eatlng thè man who beat him at thè nd of his first terna two years ago—was a personal triumph as well as a party victory. America s favorite politicai tradition, that statesmen must rise from humble walks of fife, runa true to forni In Smith’s case. He waa once a newsboy, and thè phra.se “from newsboy to Governor” didn't do him any harm In thè campalgn. Smith is “Al” to every one. Not one voter in ten knew —or cared — that his full name is Alfred Emanuel Smith. He has thè widest ad rendiest and cheeriest amile of any man in public lise. He has been wearing that amile for a quarter of a century, and lt helped him be eiected assembiyman, sherlff, president of tiie board of aldermen, and ftnally Governor In 1918.

How popular Smith is personally may be gucssed by thè fact that he ran far ahead of thè Democratic presidential nomlnee in 1920. He was only narrowly beaten in thè Republican landslide by 74,000 votes, while Cox lost thè State by more than 1,000,000 votes. Tammany Hall discovered Smith on New York's congested east side.
