THE SOCIALISTS AND WAR
It becomes evident, as we get truer
pictures of the 'war, that instances in
which the socialists proved unpatrio
tic are few. Both in France and Ger
many, they rallied loyally to the stand
ard. The dream of a world-family is
still unattainable.
Because this is so, we are always
inclined to regard with equanimity the
loud anti-flag talk of American social
ists. We will remember that at the
outbreak of the Spanish war, you ran
imminent risk, in going in to try to
enlist, of being trampled to delth by
a horde of socialists, flying to the re
cruiting sergeant's desk.
RUSSIAN REVERSES.
Russian reverses were inevitable, so
soon as the Germans massed any reas
onable body of troops in East Prus
Sia.
Historic clashes between Teuton and
Slav has always endnd one way and
even without the genius of aL Frederick,
Wilhelm should have little difficulty
in repelling the present Russian in
vasion.
Winter may soon close the campaign
in'that section. With the adven't of
spring, if the war is not ended mean
while, a larger force of muscovites may
enter East Prussia. His success or
failure in the west will then determine
the kaiser's fate. But so long as the
odds are not more than five to one,
the Germans can be counted on to dis
pose of the Russians very handily.
HELPING COTTON
The cot'on trade is undoubi : lit in
a had' way. But so is copper and
many other trades. We cannot see
why bond issues should be legislated
for any particular industry, unless all
are helped.
Now and then, the southern demo
crat in congress gets a trifle sectional.
It is a habit they : i living down in
gratifying fashion; ,iiut a habit still
strong in them, on i 'a:ion.
Whether the gove. lilunt coul or
should step in at such a tine is a. mnot
matter. A growing American eienuat
is inclined to think it can and shall.
But while the legality and wislomn of
such procedure are in doubtl, it would
be well not to show to,, mulch favorit
ism.
Perhaps, after a beating or two monre
the czar will take to drink.
Neither Joffre nor Von Kluck ap
pears to be in the Stallings class.
Now that the Boers have decided to
fight under the British nanner, the
kaiser lets the cat out of the bag. It
was he formed the pllan by which
"Bobs" won the Boer war.
Incidentally, in declaring and en
forcing prohibition all over his em
pire by a stroke of his pen, the czar
has the American prohibition party
backed off the map.
It may yet develop that the kaiser
has up his sleeve a siege gun that will
shoot from Ostend to Dublin.
SENTIMENT VS. SENSE
The Montana Associatioi. Opposed to Woman Suffrage
embraces, to our personal knowledge, many noble women
of model characters, some of whom are undoubtedly sincere.
But this association has reprinted,' in sober good faith, and
scattered broadcast, an article- from The New York Sun,
which appears to us to be about as good an argument for
suffrage as ever was printed. The article drags in "Mother."
Our mothers are always available for penny-a-line ten
twent'-thirt' playwrights, moving picture artists and tin
selled campaign orators. When any cause lapses, mother
and the dear old starry banner are called upon. But in
most of their class of sentiment, there is very little sense.
Read this bit from The Sun, laid before you by the Moh
tana Association Opposed to Woman.Suffrage as an argu
ment:
Our Mothers, you whom we honor tomorrow, because of us you have
won no fame in the public arena. You have played the game of life for
higher stakes; self-abnegation and self-nacrifice have bee: your lot.
They were the portion of the Christ in whose footsteps you have fol
lowed. Your goal has been spiritual achievement, not worldly suc
cess.
Tomorrow your sons and daughters, careless and strong and young,
will arise in the ganes and call you blessed. When the church hbells
ring- throughout the land fold your worn hands and breathe a prayer
for us all, your children. We need your intercession sadly, for many
of us have come a hitter distance since we learned to whisper .t your
knee, "Our Father, Which Art in I-eaven." Some of us have tasted
the dregs in the cup. * * *
Oh, Mothers, our Mothers, what have you not endured for us, in
your bodies, in your hearts, and ih your souls? As we pause to pay
tribute to you there rises a lump in the throat and we cannot see be
cause our eyea are bl'nd with tears. The ground upon which we are
standing is holy ground. Your halo is the connecting link between
earth and heaven. Do not discard it for a wreath of dusty laurel
leaves. Blessed are you among wo nen today, for of all women you
have chosen the better part.
Now, to an argument like this, there is always one
cogent reply: That "Mother" was what she was, not be
cause she did not vote but in spits of the factc that she did
not vote. Mother could have been happier and sweeter
and here lived far longer, if she had had a vote. For not
a few of us remember mothers who suffered deeply as the
direct result of man-made laws-selfish, one-sided, all-for
one-sex laws-which woman will wipe off the statute book,
when she gets the ballot.
The dear old Mother argument is out of date. It implies
that we who favor suffrage either had no mothers or did
not appreciate them. You will find, if you look into this
fight, that most men who favor suffrage do so because they
remember the deal "Mother" got under the present made
for-man system.

The Fall Housecleaning.
The beds are piled up in the barn
and pa sleeps in the sink,
Us kids sleep in the bathtub, which
is pleasant, I don't think.
The kitchen range is inside out, the
carpets upside down,
We've got the fiercest lookin' house, I
guess in this man's town.
For 'most a week our pa and ma ain't
said a pleasant word.
I shouldn't be surprised at all if a di
vorce occurred.
Pa says it is a doggone shame and
makes him mighty sore.
It seems to him the gol dum house
was clean enough before.
We're camping out and catin' all our
meals now standin' tip.
It's been a week since we have had
a real clean knife or cup.
Pa says what is the doggone use of
diggin' in l.ie sin,
W\hon in a week, the house will he
all dirtlied un ag'in?
Us kids get licked three timeas a day
if we need it or not.
It's dangerous to stand around in al

NATURALIZED CITIZENS
BETTER STAY AWAY
FROM CONTINENT
Washington, Oct. 14.-Considerable
concern was manifested at the state
department today over the status of
American citizens, both native and
naturalized, who were caught in bel
ligerent countries by the outbreak of
the European war and drafted for
military service because they or their
fathers were born subjects of such
countries.
This has occurred in countries with
which the TUnited States has no
naturalization treaties and has called
forth a wardintg, issued to foreign
born elements in the United States
by the department against visits to
Europe at this time.
HORRORS OF THE WAR
TOLD IN LETTER
TO COLVILL
A tiny cross-section of the horror
which is Europe is described in a letter
received today by H. C. B. ('olvill. The
letter was sent by a relative of Mr. Col
vill, livinz in a little village near
London. Though far from the seat of I
war, the little hamlet has been whirled I
into the terror and tragedy of the con- IL
flict. Like other quiet, removed towns (
throughout Europe, the ordered ways.
It has followed for centuries have been
twisted by the death-grapple of the
Europealn lowers.
The author of the letter writes that I
she is caring for a Belgian woman and
her two little daughters, all refugees 1
from the war-swept land. The three (
are the only survivors of a family that
was typirclly large before the war
broke out.
All of the children save the two lit.
tle g'rls have been killed, and the
father is listed as missing.
The girls, both mere infants, htve
had their hands cut off by the German
Invaders, Ith writer says. The mother
is crazed ih grief over the loss of her
children and the mutUation of the two
lahiles and Iy anxiety for her hus
band.
Other fam:ilies, in the English vil
lage :re caring for other refugees, the
letter says. Almost every family has
its guests, ;nd conditions there un
doulbtedly a!re typical of conditions
throughout Europe.
Makes Face Young
Tightens Love Ties
A fretful expression, a wrinkled
face and a faded complexion, do more
to drive the male members from home
than is conmmnonly supposed. It was
Ione of my greatest difficulties to ap
pear smiling, fresh and elegant when
my dear ones were with me. But I
have overciome all that. I have
changed my mental attitude and I now
find it second nature to look cheerful.
Due partly to this, partly ot a re
markable treatment recommended by
a friend, mny appearance has so im
proved I look fifteen years younger
than before.
A simple face lotion made by dis
solving an ounce of powdered saxo
lite in a half-pint witch hazel, proved
a wonderful wrinkle-chaser. I stil
use this occasionally. To renovate my
complexion I purchased an ounce of
ordinary merecolized wax at my drug
gist's and before using this up, a
marvelous transformation had taken
I place. It was like removing an un
sightly mask, revealing a new face, a
youthful complexion of. distinctive
delicacy, clear, white and velvety. I
merely applied the wax like cold cream
before retiring, washing it off morn
ings. Ten days' treatment sufficed.

MUNSTERBERG'S HEAD
SOUGHT BY ENEMIES
Boston, Oct. 14.-Nothing less than I
the official head of Hugo Munster- I
berg, professor of psychology at Har- n
yard, will please some of the alumni, e
who hav\'e been irritated by the activ
ity of the brilt!ant schciuar in his pro
German cause in Anmcrica.
Dean Briggs has received at least C
written demand that the Harvard au
thcrities displace the professor imme
diately on pain of losing a great be
quest already placed in the writer's
will.
The man to name this condition
is Clarence Wiener, formerly of Phila
delphia, but now head of the Wiener
news agency, 64 Strand, London. He
was in Harvard in 1896 and 1897, and
was on the staff of F. D. Grant In
Porto Rico as captain after the Span
ish war.
Munsterherg said tonight that he
had offered his resignation to Presi
dent Lowell.
"I sent my resignation to President
Lowell so that there might be no em
barrassment in the matter and the
faculty be left free to act without
having to consider my feelings," he
said.
Harvard has always allowed her
professors the widest latitude in dis
cussing public questions. But there
is unquestionably considerable feeling
among Harvard graduates that he has
overs'epped the bounds in his patri
otic outbursts. .So far no formal
movement has been tackn to oust the
professor.
Several of the Harvard magazines
have contained letters and editorials
objecting to the outspokenness of
some professors. The Harvard
Monthly in its current number criti

cised Dr. Eliot for giving his views.
There was some talk of muzzling the
instructors by censoring their utter
ances, and the Harvard Crimson had
ap editorial objecting to such a pro
ccdure.
Many suggestions were made to the
governing body of the college that in
terviews and articles be censored, but
Dean Briggs said the college had
never interfered with a free anid open
expression of opinions upon public
matters by the professors and never
would. ,
