"AMERICA EXPECTS"
THE following letter has been received
from Rlvcrton, Is". J.:
Dear Editor Just what does the V.
fc. Government expect from each cltl
ren of the United Statos nftcr Its ap
peal for preimreilno-.)?
WILLIAM S ILvmilS
A fair question. Three months ago It
could liavo been answered offhand. Six
months ago a. bill of partlculats could
have been printed. What has. happened
that Mr. Harris, and hundreds of thou
sands more, do not know what the Gov
ernment expects?
We have an Inadequate army bill and
a modest navy bill. Our National Guard
has been "Federalized." I'lattsburg
camps and naval cruises have enlisted
citizens. These things and the flurry In
Me.t.co have advanced preparedness a lit.
tie way. and. naturally, once we started
going we stopped talking. But we stop,
ped too soon.
Preparedness has been a convenient
name for political conjurors, and In spite
of them It has done heroic labors. It
hno mnil the country think Interna
tionally. It has brought up many qucs
tlons. It has settled none. Not even the
perfectly simple question of Mr. Harris.
It Is much easier to explain what tho
Government should expect, what It could
do. than what It does expect and what It
will do.
Above all. the United States, no matter
what Its Administration may be, has
the right to expect a loyalty which
knows no restrictions, recognizes no
other allegiance, serves no other purpose
than the purpose of this country. That
means definitely that the Interests of
any other country are not to be con
sidered before the Interests of the United
States, and It means that the laws and
customs of this country shall not be
changed to meet the requirements of
other countries. It docs not mean that
criticism Is treachery. It does mean that
criticism must havo America first In
mind.
After loyalty comes service, and with
service a willingness to prepare for serv
ice and to undergo hardships In service.
Every Government undoubtedly has the
right to call for the universal service of
Its citizens. The United States, as a
democratic government, has the right. If
it seems requisite, to expect that
Horvlce to be given generously, and
abundantly. The Government probably
does expect taxes to be paid for national
defense. It expected the National Guard
to accept a Federal oath, and It was
largely Justified. It expected popular
support for tho two defense bills, and it
was scantily Justified.
The country can expect, even If the
Administration does nothing to further
It, that the Industries which prosper hero
will give themselves to the country's de
fense, will co-operate with the army offi
cials, will make ready to execute war or
ders, will become a part of national pre
paredness. If it expects men to give
their vacations to their country, and to
give their lives for It. It can, by a stretch
of the Imagination, expect men to give
even money toward Its preservation.
After tho war there will be an almost
Irresistible pacifist movement, beneath
which tho new preparations for war will,
no doubt, be concealed. The United
States can demand of its citizens that
they be not carried away In this hys
terla. It will further tho work of peace,
but Its citizens must not make that work
fruitless by placing their country In the
position of a powerless suppliant.
Finally, the United States can expect
a more real cohesion of Its component
States, a closer welding of its strangely
assorted citizens as the result of Its
"appeal for preparedness." We have
been asked to prepare for our country.
We have been suddenly faced with tho
fact that our country really exists, as
something distinct from other countries,
with its own problems and its own possi
bilities. To solve the first and develop
the others is the first part of prepared
ness. THE
PARTY OF UNPREPARED.
NESS
We mutt abolish everything that
bears even tho semblance of any
kind of artificial advantage.
The object of the tariff duties hence
forth laid must be effective competition,
the whetting of American wits by con
test with the wits nf the rest ot the
world. President Wilson's address to
Congress April S, 1913.
IN CONTRAST with this view Is the
declaration of tho Republican plat
form of 1S60, which has been repeated in
some form in nearly every other plat
form adopted by the party:
' Whllo providing revenue for the sup
port of the general Government by
duties upon Imrlorts, sound policy re
quires such an adjustment of these Im
posts as to encourage tho development
of the Industrial Interests of tho whole
. country.
The Democratic platform of 183G had
declared for progressive free trade, and
In several platforms since then a protec
tive tariff has been denounced as uncon
stitutional, and a demand has been mado
for a tariff for revenue only.
The protective principle is repugnant
to the Democracy, The avowed purpose
of the Democratic leaders, as expressed
by Mr. Wilson, Is to put American manu
facturers on the defensive, to develop
American trade by compelling our pro
ducers to fight for their lives in compe
tition with the rest of the world. Then
If they cannot hold their own they ought
tp go out of business; just as the Allies,
whose defenses are destroyed by the Ger
man shells, are wlpe out by the destruc
tive fire, with this difference, that In
stead of waiting for our competitors to
destroy our defenses. Mr. WJlson would
wipe them out himself to make It easier
for foreigners to find out how weak we
are.
The European nations are planning to
assault our maikets as soon as peace la
declared. It requires no argument to
prove that the party which has a record
of move than fifty years of opposition to
Industrial preparedness cannot be trusted
with the command of our trade irontiers
when the attaut begins

STOPPING STRIKES B.Y INJUNCTION
Made It Impossible for Wilson to Follow the
Cleveland Precedent of 1894?
G ROVER CLEVELAND settled tho
great railroad strlko of 1834, which
affected the railroads In twenty-seven
States, by calling out tho regular army
and by resorting to tho Injunction.
Attorney General Olncy held that Debs
and his associates were engaged in a
conspiracy In restraint of commerce be
tween the States, In violation of the pro.
visions of the Sherman anti-trust law.
He sued out Injunctions ngalnst them.
Tho Supremo Court of tho United States
sustained tho lower courts In their Inter
pretation of the law. In Justifying tho
nctlon of the Attorney General, Justice
Brewer, who wrote tho opinion In tho
Debs case In 1S95, said:
It was not a bill (of injunction) to
command a keeping of the peace, much
less was Its purport to restrain the de
fendant:! from abandoning whatever
employment they were engaged in. The
right of any laborer, or any number of
laborers, to quit work was not chal
lenged. Tho scope and purpose of this
bill was only to restrain forcible ob
structions of the highways along which
Interstate commerce trains and mails
were cqrrled.
Mr. Cleveland. In tho Princeton lec
ture In which ho reviewed tho history of
the strike and the nctlon of the Govern
ment, concluded by declaring that "those
who were most nearly related
to tho troublous days may well
especially congratulate themselves on
tho part which fell to them In marking
out tho way and clearing the path, now
unchangeably established, which shall
hereafter guide our nation safely In the
exercise of the Important functions which
represent tho people's truest."
Tho "unchangeably established" method
to which Mr. Cleveland referred was tho
resort to an Injunction to prevent strikers
from Interfering with Interstate com
merce. It worked in 1894. Within a very
few days nfter tho arrest and Imprison
ment of Debs tho strike collapsed, and
the workers returned to their posts. Of
course, the regular army had something
to do with restoring order, but so long
as Debs was nt large the trouble con
tinued. He disregarded the Injunction,
nnd was punished for contempt of court.
Government by Injunction Denounced
It was In 1904 that Mr. Cleveland en
tertained the view that the unchange
able path had been marked out. Ills own
party and the labor organizations began
to denounce "government by injunction"
as soon as It was resorted to. The Dem
ocratic platform of 1896 declared that
"wo especially object to government by
Injunction as a new and highly danger
ous form of oppression," referring to
Cleveland's course In 1894. The platforms
of 1900, 1904 and 1908 contained similar
condemnation of the resort to the Injunc
tion. , ,
The demand that the Sherman anti
trust law be so amended as to exempt
labor unions from its provisions was In
sistent for several years. But Congress
declined to make the exemption. The
first Congress of the present Adminis
tration, however, took up the matter,
and in the Clayton amendments to the
Sherman act it provided that nothing in
the anti-trust laws should be construed to
forbid the existence of labor organiza
tions, and that no such organization and
no member of such an organization should
"be held or construed to be illegal com
binations or conspiracies in restraint of
trade under the anti-trust laws." The
amendments went further, for In Section
20 they provided that no injunctions should
Issue In a dispute between laborers and
employers except when irreparable dam
age to property was threatened, The
LITTLE, BUT THINKING A LOT
J XN .WW
S
to the Sherman Anti-Trust Law
law expressly provides that no Injunction
shall forbid tho men to stop work or to
persuado others to stop work or to boycott
any party to a labor dispute.
Tho labor organizations have been un
der the Impression that theso amend
ments have destroyed the power of the
Government to Interfere In a railroad
strlko as Cleveland Interfered in 1S91.
Tho courts have not passed on them and
we havo nothing to guldo us but the opin
ions of lawyers. Somo experts insist that
tho labor organizations havo been bun
coed by tho Democratic Congress and
that tho President hag the same power to
prevent interruption In Interstate com
merce that ho enjoyed under the un
amended Sherman law. Others Insist
that as it was tho purpose of tho Demo
cratic Congress to redeem Its pledge to
put an end to government by injunction
nny Democratic President who resorts to
tho Injunction In a labor dispute will
violate tho spirit of tho law as well as
tho pledges of his party. And they clto
In proof of their view the declaration of
tho law that no labor organization and no
member of a labor organization can bo
guilty of any conspiracy in restraint of
trade under the anti-trust statutes.

BRITISH CONTROL OF AMERICAN
TRADE
Acting Secretary Polk's protest against
the British blacklist of American merchants
was a weak little squeak. It bore the air
of a poor relation begging for a favor. And
It might as well not have been written at
all, bo long as our Pro-British Government
permits British Consuls to dictate. In every
American ocean port, what shipments of
American goods can or cannot bo sent to
our customers in neutral countries. This is
the real blacklist. It has been In use al

WHAT A BABY COSTS
"How much do babies cost?" said he,
Tho other night upon my knee,
And then I eald, "They cost a lot ;
A lot of watching by a cot,
A lot of sleepless hours and care,
A lot of heartache and despair,
A lot of fear and trying dread.
And sometimes many tears are shed
In payment for our babies small.
But they are really worth it all."
For babies people have to flay
A heavy price from day to day; ,
There is no way to. get ono cheap.
Why, sometimes when they're fast asleep
You have to get up in the night
And go and see that they're all right
But what they cost In constant care
And worry does not half compare
With what they bring of Joy and bliss.
You'd pay much more for just a kiss.
Who buys a baby has to pay
A portion of the bill each day ;
He has to give his time and thought
Unto the little one he's bought.
He has to stand a lot of pain
Inside bis heart and not complain.
And pay with lonely days and ad
For all the happy hours he's had,.
AU thta a baby costs, and yet,
His emtio Is worth it nil, you bet
