"I am not in favor of thit,'" ii Louis .1. Smith, prrnidrnt of tho hoard. "I i' n't propos to have lircM. iit ropresentati ves 'f nvwspMjers which Intentionally, dellhvratoly, and maliciously misrepresent a and hr about us. f cuip they will do that anyway, but I n;n not 'int; to -rive them a handle on whirh to hanfr anything on me.

Anything that mi;ht have been said, or done, p.l the conclusion of tlw Lovpren he:rine. cotild at its worst only have been confirmatory. Tbe public already knows that the president of the board for a IonK time rented certain of his property for a f-amhlintf joint; that he was plated on the board, very apparently, as th" special representative of the .imblimr interests, to see to it that they ye re not cheated In their collection of fhe Cnron machine's campaign promises that were wide them. Kor Dr, Smith to ta!k about hansin;: ,anvthin-r onto him, or any possibility of any consi.Urable misrepresentation or falsification of the board's actions, is the silliest kind of twaddle. It is pretty v.-fcll settbd with the public, ami this without calling for coinment. that Mayor (.'arson will never be able to "clean up the tovn," or yive to the clt ;:nythinp li'.e an etticient police force, m.til he ets rid of the "ranking !ial" who are responsible for the dirt and itu llicieiu y. and that in tint ho will .have to bes,'in awav at the loj. which mean not 1'hiei Kline list, but Dr. Lo.iis .1.

The Judce explained several thlncs to the prisoner about the laws of a free country and about cratitude end fair play. Then he fined the man I5 for the particular offense which had broucht him before the court. It is possible that 'his Oreek farmer has experienced a new vision with regard to America and American ritrhts and privilepes. If not, he belongs to the croup of aliens who must cet out. If he still thinks thJ i an awfol country because he cannot do just as he pleases about everything, he should he sent upon his way searching for another where he can enjoy the particular brand of freedom he tl sires.

PEOPLE AND TREATY. A Xew York newspaper which has been trying to et at the opinion of the plain people refrardinn th peace treaty had one of its ablest reporters, a well known Washington correspondent, spend a day talking with "the man in the street" in Philadelphia. He buttonholed hundreds of men and asked them what they thought about the treaty in venera! and the League of Nations in particular. The results are interesting. As regards the tiuestion of prompt ratification, there was practical unanimity. The reporter says: ' Without a slmrl" exception the averj jre citizen of Philadelphia wants the peace treaty rutiIW1 as soon as possible, not only because he believes it to be lore, ovenlue. but for reasons that atuct his own particular vocation or personal views." There is no unanimity about the League of Nations, which forms o -iernineant a part of the treaty. Some of those interrogated Kemed to feel that the president was tryinpr to involve the United States unnecessarily n the disputes of foreign nations. Others were afraid that with such an arranrrement the American people would become "a meal ticket for Kurope." Most of them, however, regarded the League t onstitution as an honest attempt tf) make war more difficult, if not entirely impossible; and many of th'.'m summed up the matter as foMo.vs; "Well, we'll tr it. anyway, and find out if it's good or not. If it's i?ood all rii:ht. we'll keep it; If It's h.- 'b. as some of the critics say. why. we can ltse it. That's what happens to nil st treaties, anyv.ay." And this may easily turn out to be the verdict of the nation.

THE UNLEARNED LESSON. f'.etman statisticians have been completing their estimates of the human cost of the war. They find that during the wnv there was a net decrease of i.ooo.niio in the population of the (lerman empire, instead of a normal increase of more than twice that much. According to Dr. ''r:tz IP'rsrdorfer. the net effect on th empire's copulation was 800,000 marriages not made, 4.000,000 babies unborn, 1,600.000 soldiers killed and 700 00O civilians dead as a result of poor nourishment. This reckoning ignores the hundreds of thousands of soldiers destined to die later from their wou ids. the millions more wholly or jtartia'ly incapacitated by injuries and the millions of civilians permanently weakened by war privations and the diseases bred by them. There is agitation :n Bavaria in favor of a "childbearing strike." The allying' crv is. "No more children!" In the face of the?e facts, German statesmen nnd writers are calmly discussing and planning for "the next war." '

STII.L ti:..mimc; "rnoc.ni:ssiYi:s." (Chicago Journal.) No one envies the plight of the so-called progresrive republicans nowadays. Though still firm in the belief that they rule the party, some way or another they are still minus 'ho control and have a monopvly on nothing but jeers and rank ingratitude. The situation in the lower house of congress is an example. The defeat of Jam It. Mann and the election of Frederick H. tllllett to the speakership was hailed j.s a "progressive" victory. But that was all Mann lost. His lieutenant. Monde 11 of Wyoming, was chosen republican floor leader. Mann stalwarts dominate the "fteering committee" and the committee 0:1 rules, and head all the other important house comhb rs. -Mann himself had to he recalled from Chitag, to rescue his party from the state of legislative and general helplessness into which it had fallen. tust prior to the last incident the "progressives" thought the time propitious for an enlargement of the party "steering committee" in order to accommodate a larger representation of their element. The reactionaries opposed the plan, naturally, but seemed able toado nothing. lacking the courage to o.eHver the punch that would again put the "progressives" down for the count, they sent for Mann. Ho came, and down v.ent the "progressives" amid the war cries of the "oUl tcuard."

All that i really wanted to adjust prices- to fit pockets is a restoration of competitive conditions in .store and factory. The government destroyed competition at the outet of our entry into the war by furiously oidding up the prices of commodities and labor. Since ' hostilities ceased the endeavor has been to hold up, when it should have been to lei down. In seeking to avoid an inflation of currency we have had an inflation of values. Ixw priced currency can in time reach par; high pries do not come down as gracefully. The economic efitct of each condition is about the same. That competition wtli assert itself if not interfered with has ben proven over and over again, t'tood prices increase production, and increased production reduces cost. Pbnty and fair prices produce the widest general prosperity. To meddle with i.atural laws is to breed e il consequences, plenty of which are now in prospect.

More Truth Than Poetry By James J. Montague. THE FAIRY FLEET. It won't be long till old Jack Frost comes sailing from the skies. A palette underneath his arms, all smeared with glc.ng dyes. And seat himself beside a stream to tint with brilliant hues. In many a gaudy camouflage the fairy-folk' canoes. And when the bending boughs let through the autumn sunlight's gleam. The fairy-folk will launch their craft, and hurry down the stream. You've seen them passing oftentimes when idling by the shore; You thought the zephjrs picked them up along the forest floor, And tumbled them upon the waves for then you never knew, That every little painted leaf bore up a fairy crew, Or that the fleet the little stream swept happily away ' ' Was peopled with a viewless host upon a holiday! Staunch boats are these that skim along and dance and dip and veer. And catch in eddies by the shore, or pause in mid-career, To set a little scarlet sail to tack across the tide. While fishes watch them overhead and swiftly dart aside. And if too close above the dam a derelict should float. The fairy-folk leap overboard and get another boat. And so, when brown October comes and on the trees o'erhead You see the leaves turn suddenly to gold and glowing red, Just watch the stream that runs along almost beneath your feet. And presently you'll sec it bears a many-colored fleet. And though you may not sec a soul in any bright canoe You'll never, never doubt again that fairy tales are true! (Copyright, 1919).

The Tower of Babel

By Bill Armstrong

In view of the recent agitation against the use of tobacco we e.pt et in a couple of years we will be greeted with a story about as follows when we pick up our favorifnewspaper, The News-Times: "In one of the most spectaciar raids of the South Bend police department in years. I. M. Sick, the proprietor of a soft drink emporium which has ! "t'ii a loafing place for policemen tor months and thus came under susplclo" of the board of public safety, was arrested and is now confined in solitary confinement charged with having tobacco in his possession. Four unidentified men were also taken in the raid charged with frequenting a place where, tobacco is sold. "The proprietor of the tobacco. 'speak easy," was concealed under a wood pile in the cellar of his place of business at the time of his arrest. Officers point to a clay pipe which was found concealed in his hip pocket as indisputable evidence of his guilt. The prisoner also smelled very much as if he had been smoking or had been handling a rmaratity of tobacco. A clgaret was found on the person of one of the men charged with frequenting, and the other three also were in possession of a small number of United Cigar coupons, clearly indicating, the police point out, their guilt. "For months the soft drink emporium of the accused man has been watched by policemen, who were seen to enter the place and disappear
