TOMMYROT. A few foolish radicals are talking of a revolution in the United States. We may pause for a moment to ask -what is the purpose of a revolt, the answer to which is that the only thing a revolt can accomplish is to give the people all the people, not a part of the people the right to vote for the kind of officials and the kind of laws they want. In the United States the right of manhood suflra.ee is universal The people have already precisely the kind of officials a majority of them chose and the kind of laws we have depend on the kind of officials we, the people, elect. Those -who chatter of revolt are a small minority, and minority rule will never prevail in this country. If there ever is to he any fighting n the United States it will be to keep a minority from gaining control of the government; let there be no mistake about that. With all our faults we still have by far the best govr iment in the -world. The people know that and anybody who tries to overturn what thousands have died to create and save would receive mighty short shrift and the sooner they understand that the better. Revolt in the United States? Who would revolt and for what? Tommyrot?

PROFITEERING WHO? AND WHERE? ff

We are all ready to riot at the sound of the word "profiteer,' and with just.ee and right on our side, but before we denounce any individual or business as having taken down unreasonable profits let us first be sure that we know what we are talking about, says the Muncie Press. For instance, the average householder believes that

I his grocer and hi meat merchant are holding him im

because it is to this retail grocer and butcher that he must give up part of the contents of his pay envelope and he knows that these men are charging prices that are outrageous as compared to the prices of a few years ago. What he does not see is the prices that are charged to there retailers by the men of whom they buy nor the expense of the men who sell to the butcher and baker and grocer.

somewhere along the line we may feel pretty sure profiteering is going on and it Is natural to take our anger out upon the person who gets our money first even if he only is allowed to hold It until his creditors come along and take it away from him. Doubtless some grocers and butchers have done profiteering, but investigators for the state tax board are said to have discovered that this class of retailers really has been the hardest hit by high prices; that they have not been able to charge for their goods a legitimate Who is doing the profiteering, then? That is what we must find out.

THE ANTI-TOBACCO SCARECROW. The common sense which has characterized and steadied the public conduct of Wayne B. Wheeler, general counsel of the Anti-Saloon League of America, was expressed la. his statement the other day concerning the attitude of the organization concerning the various antitobacco agitations. "The anti-tobacco scarecrow of the anti-prohibition associations." he declared, "does not fool anyone. The Anti-Saloon forces have no intention of joining their crusade. The liquor traffic is a public nuisance. The tobacco habit may be a private or personal bad habit, but it Is not in the same class as the use of intoxicating liquor." Sincere reformers have attempted to start a movement for the "prohibition of the growth, manufacture, sale and use of tobacco," but they failed to realize that they were playing directly into the hands of the liquor lorces. As soon as it was seen that prohibition was to be a

ARTICLE X MUST GO OUT. Whatever may be their varying opinions on other phases of the league covenant, its opponents are united in their insistence that Article X must be eliminated. That is the section that obligates the United States and other members of the league to preserve the territorial integrity and political independence of every other member. Former President Taft, sensing the danger of the whole cove nant through attack upon Article X. has rushed to the rescue. He urges acceptance of the article on the ground that the other nations might not consent to its reserva tion by the United States. "The issue, herefore." says Ir. Taft, "is whether the other nations in receiving a ratification of the United States containing a reservation refusing to consent Article X and striking it out of the obligations of the United States under the treaty, would accept the ratifica tion. with demanding, as they would have the right, furth er negotiations before consenting to this change." It is a startling announcement that the United States is to be prevented from making with Germany such a treaty as it pleases, without interference from other countries. Our dispute is with Germany, and with her alonv we are making peace. The president has always been careful to refer to the other enemies of Germany as our "associates." There has never been an intimation that there was any alliance between the United States and any of the other belligerents. Why. then, should the a sertion be made that they have a voice in our treaty rela tions with Germany? Not a suggestion has come from across the wat.?r that other governments will question the propriety of the senate of the United States making sucn reservations in the treaty as it chooses, nor has there been any hint that the peace council wou!3 be reconvened in the event of such reservations being adopted by this country. Wi;h the completed German-American treaty before them oihe. governments may see fit to enter into supplementary arrangements with Germany altering some of the provisions of the treaty recently signed. In fact, it is openly hinted by those who have returned from Paris that European countries have no heart for the league of nations, and the

demand of France for a protective alliance with England 1 friends

and the United States is proof that she sees no hope of protection through the agency of the league. There can be no doubt that the other nations will speedily regulate their affairs so as to conform to any changes that America cares to make in i's contract with Germany. Mr. Taft even goes to the extent of threatening los? of French friendship if we do not accede to Article X. "France," he warns, "would seriously object to eliminat ing an article furnishing her some defense against such attack (from Germany), however short it may fall of her earnestly expressed wish." After declaring that France wanted an International armed force ready on the Instant to prevent Germany from renewing her aggresions, the ex-rresident Insists that she will be much aggrieved if

'INTERNATIONAL NEWS SERVICE! BOSTON. Aug. 15. Th industrial woikrrs of the world was responsible

for the ytnk'' of railroad shopmen) throughout the country. Daniel J. Col-:

tins, of Rcrantmi, Pa . general vice president of the Brotherhood of Railway Carmen of America and John Coots, of St. Louis, an international representative cf the union, charged here today. Collins stated that the strike originated among members of a radical organization in Chicago known as the American Federation of Railroad Workers, headed by TV L. Richardson, a former member of the American Federation of Labor. The strike, said Collins, was the result of propaganda circulated from the Chicago radical organizations among the various locals of the Brotherhood of Railway Carmen, of America, of the A. F. of L. The literature was misleading because of the similarity of the organization's names and demands, he said. In addition paid agents were sent out to various strike centers, Collins and Coots both charged.

A3 a matter of fact France does not care a fig for the cumbersome and inefficient guarantees of the league; what she does want is an alliance with England and America for Immediate action if attacked again by Germany. There will not be the slightest objection from France if Article X, or the whole covenant for that matter, is discarded.
