CULATION Of THE EVENINU I.nDQUK
ron NovKimr.i: was iji.ou
riillidrlplill. Mon.lir. linilll- H. I1IT.
The "leak" was a "break."
After nil, thero is moro truth than
poctrv or intellect In tho remark of the
lleprcsenlativo from Terry County about
"these days of manipulation nnd civiliza
tion." It took years for some people to
discover that tho Jfonroo pocti'Ino was
lesu humanitarian than protective. In pur
pose. Jluybo after a whllo tho nation will
understand tho purpose of tho so-called
pcaco noto sent by the PresldoTit.
It would bo a much simpler prob
lem If tho olilcial class and tho people
of Europo were lighting for tho somo
things. Tho people aro lighting to make,
the civilized parts of tho world habitable.
The officials are lighting to malto tho
uncivilized parts of tho world exploitable.
Thrco things that St. Louis ought
to do this year, according to tho Ho
public, aro to provide against railway
congestion, to tear down tho old rook
eries and replace them with modest
priced apartments, and. to organlzo for
tho development of foreign trado by pre
paring to finance foielgn trado with St.
Louis money. Does any ono doubt that
Philadelphia also ought to do these
things?
A Chlneso delegate to one of the
earlier peace conventions at Tho lingua
said to his associates In the conforonco,
"Supposo a nation which received nn
ultimatum icfusod to flKht, what would
be the procedure?" Ho could And tho
answer In tho fnto of Koroa, but ns wo
understand It the purpose of tho Lcaguo
to Enforce I'caco Is to persuade the
nations to ngrco to glvo a. different an
swer to this nnd similar tiuostlous.
Prospects for n voto on tho pro
hibition constitutional amendment In Con
gress this winter aro trald to bo bright.
The optimists, however, havo not yet
been able to count tho necessary two
thirds majority for It. Tho Houson amond
ment ot 1914 received nn ulllrmallvo volo
of 137, with 1S3 votes nualnst It. This
was sixty votes short. It is pusslblo Unit
the House will pass tho amendment nnd
put on tho Benute tho responsibility of
defeating It. Tho Ilnuse hui been in tho
habit of shirking Us responsibility on Im
portant matters, confident that tho Son
ate would do Its duty. This was before
Senators were elected by popular vote,
It remains to be seen, now, whethor Son
ntors who must glvo account of their
stewardship to tho voters themselves will
be more responsive to popular opinion.
Old party lines havo been oblit
erated In the North Dakota Legislature
which met Tuesdav. The Legislature
and most of the Stato olllccs oro con
trolled by the Farmers' Nonpartisan
League, organized a year or two ngo.
The politicians, it seem"), had refused to
heed the demand ot tho farmers, ex
pressed In a State-wide referendum; bo
tho farmers decided to take matters Into
their own hands. They wanted certain
specific things. Republican nnd Demo,
cratlc farmers alike wanted them. One
or two men who believed that the people
could get what they wanted If they went
about U In the light way started the
league. They secured 42,000 members,
each of whom paid J9 Into the tieahury.
They canvassed the State in automobiles,
as Hiram Johnson canvasned California.
As a result, they carried the primaries
In the epilng and elected their legUlatlve
ticket In November and are now getting
down to business In Qlsmarck. And the
old party leaders are rubbing their oyes
In astonishment at their overturn. That
gangs can rule only so long aa the people
let them seems to be the lesson of this
western experiment In democracy.
Senator Penrose, we believe, de
nounced bitterly the Governor's alleged
grab of campaign funds. Repeatedly the
Senator has Intimated that It Is disgrace
ful to maintain the status quo a ad have

POUT OF PHILADELPHIA
A l'ltir.ADtiU'HiA banker, who has
the habit of doing big things, say:

ful development now In progress In
connection with nur port and tho
enormous possibilities! for grenter de
velopment, especially In connection
with the ast stretches of undeveloped
territory on tho south side, contiguous
to the river, sultnblo for tho location of
Innumerable Industrial plants, which
In tip other city could find such un
equaled facilities tor transportation by
both rail nnd river.
Tho Rvr.NtNO IinDORit publishes today
the first nf n series of articles on the Port
of Philadelphia. They nro Intended, as far
as possible, to glvo the pcnplo of Philadel

tho Mlddlo Ages, when the Dutch In
vented cleanliness, the powers of dark
ness linvo been winning. The defendant
In the case of the State versus dirt re
mains In the dock while the Jury Is dead
locked, and It Undo that as good n placo
as aiy from which to infect both .Tudgo
and Jurors.
It Is the cheap boarding-house upon
which Chestor sanitation Is concentrating
Its lire. Hoarders rush In and out and
there Is no tlmo to clean up between
shifts. It would bo n pity If tho boa- Jlng
house had to go. as it is tho compiomlso
between tho Inhospitable rostaurnnt and
the homo. It Is surprising Hint tho cheap
restaurant has not tiled to bent Its rival
at its own game as well as in cleanliness.
Tho most unhomellko quality Is tho Irri
tating analysis which Hems of food
undergo In marblo-Uibled palacos. Coffoe,
dessert and othor accessories aro made
separate Items on tho bill of faro, whllo
In tho boarillng-liouso they m o all "thrown

generosity.
Competition Is tho safest euro-all. It
Is to bo hoped tho boardlng-houro and the
restaurant will compete, tho ono trying
to bo moro careful and tho other moro
careless.
SLOW DKATII
MANY theories have been advanced as
to what too German Crown Princo
meant when ho raid nbout a year ngo,
This war is idiotic." Ho had prayed for
it nil his llfo and when it camo wasn't
satisfied. Tho meaning is becoming
clear. A militant cmplro has in tho past
piled victory upon victory, but tho para
dox has never happened that with each
expansion it was compelled to tighten
its girth.
It is no longer debatable whether tho
German food situation is berlous. Tho
Germans do not try to conceal that It
Is. Reforo tho war tho omplro had to
Import millions of tono of food yearly,
and this supply has boon cut off. Tho
fact Is Jubilantly hailed by tho Alllos,
but to neutral countries It Is a monstrous
condition. Sheer starvation, which kills,
is In some ways loss calnmltous than con
sistent undeifeodtng. which breeds tuber
culosls nnd other dl-a.-os. It Is particu
larly disastrous to children.

FEDEKAI, ACTION TO CURB THE
lmuti Kviii
THE proposal that Cohgro3s appoint n
special committee to Investigate the
whole subject of Federal lespanslblllty
for tho distribution of hnblt-farmlng
drugs Is excellent. Not only would the
findings of such a. committee bo ot
enormous valuo to the Individual States
as a basis for supplementary legislation
ot their own, but tho immediate effect
would be. wo believe, tho strengthening
ot the Federal law. which In turn would
be the incentive also for an International
.-.inference on the subject.
The Government Is already In posses
slon of mont f t"8 Information gathered
i, the F.VBSlNO Lkugbu. Undoubtedly
the emphafcls placed on the situation by
this newspaper has been effcotlve In
making the distribution of drugs more
dllllcult in Philadelphia, which U sup
nosed to be the headquarters of the traf
flc. Rut repeated robberies of cfrug stores
and physicians' oltlces In outlying sec
tions of the country. South, East, North
and West, show clearly to whtt lengths
traders will go to secure supplies. No
State can prevent sales absolutely. Tho

darkness. Publicity will kill It In time.

and then tho pnwdcr was put on. In tho
course ot tlmo,thls dressing got the men's
Jumpers filttiy. and to protect tho blue

that day ordered Jacls to wear a plain,
light blue linen c-illar hanging from tho
shoulders to the middlo of the back This
plain linen collar was worn till after Lord
Nelson's death, when tho Admiralty de
creed that It should bo ndorned with threo
rows of vj'allo braid (not -rn on tho cuffs
lu the English navy), and that is liuw tho
collar came to bo ndorned as it is today,
most other na'lons having copied this
collar fur their loner-deck uniforms. The
black silk netkerchlef dales from the days
when Englinh tailors went Into uctlon
stripped to the waist ; In tho olden days
the sailors were served out with a cotton
cloth which was tied roimf; tho neck and

haen changed to silk, and It Is only wyrn
by the men when ashore nowadays. The
lanyard worn round the sailor's neck is
attached to a Jackknife which has one
large blade and a small marlln-splke with
which to splice quickly small-sized ropes;
