CHICAGO NEW YORK (Official City, State and County Newspaper) A SPLENDID FOURTH It is quite conceivable after the celebration which Bis- marck put on over the last two days that the Slope coun- try of the state will consider that the capital city has done a duty well and satisfactorily again. Bismarck sustains a relation to this section of the state, its great southwestern area. It is a leader for the territory of which it is the hub. It cannot shirk, it can- BOSTON BUSINESS HAS ITS ARTISTS America comes in for a good deal of high-toned criticism, every so often, because of the way it “glorifies” its business men. Foreign-born visitors and native-born novelists have told us repeatedly that we are a small-souled, dollar- worshiping folk because we have so much respect for our great industrialists. The theory scems to be that any man who can write even a third-rate novel or paint even a fifth-rate picture has something of the divine spark in him, while the factory owner or railroad mag- nate is a crass, unimaginative and utterly sordid sort of chap. Perhaps all of this is quite true. But now and then it seems as if our ‘inest artists—our most imaginative creative workers—are in truth the business leaders. Consider, for instance, the two famous Van Sweringen brothers of Cleveland. The outlines of their story are quite familiar. They started out as real estate developers, prospered, bought a railroad, prospered with it, bought several more, built | a vast unfon terminal for their home elty and put to- gether one of the largest railroad systems in the country out of the lines they had bought. They made themselves very rich doing it. On the face of it, there seems no reason to claim any especial creative genius for them. Yet they are artists—using an entire city as their medium. They have taken scores of square miles of rolling coun- try land outside of Cleveland and transformed it into home sites. That, to be sure, has been done by any num- ber of real estate operators; but the Van Sweringens have done it in a new way. They have put these suburbs far out in the country, away from noise and. smoke and dirt—and then have used their railroad lines to make these outlying villages actually closer to the heart of the city, in point of time, than other neighborhoods not half 80 far away in actual miles. They have done this on such a scale that the whole fu- ture development of Cleveland is being changed. Indeed, it is predicted that the population of the city itself may not neglect, it cannot forego its obligations to its neigh- bors in public movements, in big scale observances, in state shows having to do with the industry of agriculture. ‘The Fourth of July was an occasion calling for some community to stage a fitting celebration of the nation’s birthday. Bismarck tried it out last year and thousands of visitors gave the city’s spirit of leadership approval and indorsement by their presence. It was natural that the city should assume the task again this year. Hence the big two-day celebration which was put on and which Closed so splendidly in last night's great fireworks display. Bismarck feels justifiable pride in its endeavors. It provided the best possible in the form of Fourth of July festivities and entertainment. The adjacent territory which does business with it and is in other ways linked to the city on the Missouri showed its appreciation by the presence of thousands of its people here. ‘The bonds of communal fellowship hold firm. The Slope country and the people to the east and southeast still are loyal neighbors. Bismarck is happy in having put on this big celebration for their pleasure and to have been appreciated in that leadership. It showed that the surrounding country subscribes to the leadership of the city in this territory. ‘The home folks can be proud, too. No other place in the state attempted a celebration on the scale that Bis- marck attempted and succeeded in carrying out 80 suc- cessfully. It was & great celebration and it remains for the years to come to surpass it. The pest has not. ‘The entertainment committee of the Association of Commerce is worthy of-commendation and congratula- tion, They had a big task and in their capable hands it was nobly performed. actually decrease in the next few years, because so many citizens are moving to the new suburbs. Now this is something more than the work of ordinary Teal estate men. It is a movement of extreme import- ance. It may, quite conceivably, point the way in the matter of urban development for the whole country, and solve the perplexing problem of the modern city—how to Brow in size and yet provide decent living conditions for the inhabitants. The work these brothers are doing is making Cleveland ‘& beautiful, charming city. It is, quite literally, making a better sort of life possible for many thousands of people. It is alleviating the worst features of our urban civiliza- tion. ‘Who can deny that business men of this type are cre- ative geniuses as well? Do such men need to tip their hats to supercilious scribblers? IT HAS ITS BENEFITS Senator Bingham’s proposal that congressional im- munity to the law of libel be abolished, so that a speech delivered in Congress be subject to action in the courts just the same as any speech delivered by a private citizen, is not as attractive as it may look at first glance. To be sure, some senators and congressmen do, oc- castonally, give vent to wild and irresponsible statements under protection of their immunity. Yet, in the long Tun, the benefits to the country at large outweight the drawbacks. Congress is a place for plain speaking. Would the Teapot Dome situation, for instance, have been exposed 80 thoroughly if the libel law had been hanging over the heads of the senators who uncovered that mess of corruption? A FORGOTTEN VILLAIN OF WAR “ Tt may be true, as Mark Antony remarked; that the evil that men do lives after them; yet there are times when it seems as if the surest way to win oblivion is to establish &@ reputation for wickedness. ‘The other day the newspapers printed a picture of a man whom the last 30 years have covered with the vell of obscurity. Three decades ago every American knew him, and despised him. His name was a sort of symbol for cruelty and ruthlessness. Yet in the picture he was trail, apologetic-locking. stooped with the weight of his 90 years. Not one American in ten thousand would have recognized him. ‘Who Was he? Weyler—the former governor-general of Cuba during the last days of the Spanish regime there; the man we all blamed for the miseries and sufferings of that luckless island. ‘Thirty years is not a long time. The men who fought -tn our war with Spain are still, for the most part, hale and hearty. There are soldiers and sailors on active service who can wear the campaign ribbons of that con- flict. Yet Weyler has been completely forgotten. We hardly remember that we once shuddered at the deeds that were attributed to him. Part of this, perhaps, may be due to the fact that Wey- Jor was accused of many things that he did not do. There has to be a villain in every war, and this Spaniard was ‘admirably cast for the part. Yet there is more to it than that. It would seem, in fact, that the race is not very inter- ested in remembering its villains. It is quite willing to let dhe men who have wronged it drop out of sight. It does not like to think about them very long. . ‘We may not have reached the point where we are ready to forgive our enemies; but we do the next best thing, af- ter all—we forget about them. ‘Who remembers the name of the German general who ordered Edith Cavell shot—or the skipper of the sub- -marine that torpedoed the Lusitania—or the English official who inflicted the Black and Tan terrorism on Ireland after the war? There was a time when those “~ names symbolised evil, for all of us; and now we can- not recall them. ‘We are wiser, probably, thap we know. The world is not quite as glad and blithe a place as we might want it. ‘There are gly traits in human nature that pop up tq the surface 80 often and cause suffering and death. VON LUCKNER’S NEW VOYAGE Count Felix von Luckner is putting out to sea again. He has embarked from Nordenham, Germany, in a sailing yacht in which he will make a three-month deep sea exploration cruise in the Caribbean sea, taking the famous New York naturalist, Dr. William Beebe, as pas- senger. One cannot help contrasting this peaceful trip with the famous count’s former excursions at sea, when he sailed in the raider “Sea Devil,” roamed the seven seas as a terror to British shipping and made # name for himself that will live for centuries in the annals of the sea’s heroes. Few men emerged from the World war with greater luster than von Luckner. Here's wishing the doughty skipper a successful and happy voyage.

Rhode Island presented the first statue in 1870, twenty-one in position. At the present time, the visitor sees fifty-five statues in place. The fifty-fifth was that of the late Robert M. La Follette, senator from Ries. unveiled a few days ago with impressive cere- moi Congressman Tinkham, in explaining his plan, points out that the fifty-five statues now in place already so crowd the hall “that not only is there one complete circle of statues around the hall, with no more available space in the circle, but there are two statues back of this circle in a very bad light, and a second circle has been started. It follows that when the remaining forty-two statues have been received, they have to be placed so close to- gether that the hall would have the appe: age warehouse.

The other way for enjoy nature is through an intel understanding of her processes, ‘ways and means, and the laws govern the behavior of things and inanimate. Every child should know both of pleasure. The flowers in meadow should be to him at one a sheer delight of color and pat and grace, at another he should gard them as marvelous mecha cunningly contrived to survi reproduce their kind. The two kinds of pleasure ai different and ought not to be To allow the child to feel that all nature is “lovely,” that and “natural” are synonymous that the purposes of nature are how mystically beautiful, is to his thinking and befog his ui standing of the relation between man and natural values.
