TWELVE GREAT WOMEN The National League of Women Voters, after taking a considerable time in the selection, has chosen what purports to be a list of the twelve grestest living American ‘women. At the same time declar- ing that it was “humanly impos sible” to know who the greatest women were, the committed ap- pointed by the women’s organiza- tion naively goes on record as hav- ing done the “impossible.” Which is by way of being something of a boost for the National League for Women Voters. Here is the list: Jane Addams, philanthropist. Cecelia Beaux, painter. Carrie Chapman Catt, politica Anne Botsford, Comstock, nat- ural historial. Minnie Maddern, Fiske, actress. Louise Homer, singer. Julia Lathrop, child welfare. Florence Rena Sabin, anatomist. M. Carey Thomas, educator. Martha Van Renssalaer, economics, Edith Wharton, novelist. Anne Jump Cannon, astronomer. How many of the names do you recognize out of that number? How many have you ever heard before? In how many cases would you know wherein the “greatness” of the wo- men lay? Perhaps half of the list ‘would be about all the average man could identify. Jane Addams, Mrs. Catt, Louise Homer, Mrs Fiske and Edith Wharton are, of course, well enough known to be entitled “fa- mous” throughout America. The rest may be “great,” enough known to be “famous” excfpt im their own scientific circle or among the intelfigensia, their greatness will have to be taken for granted. For greatness is itself a monument to itself; and the world recognizes it. Fame—not notoriety—is a proof of greatness, $ With no intention to cavil with fhe worthy and well informed wo- en who made the selection for this st, there are a good mony “great” flames left out who may appear to! juzny as “greater” than a good many of those put.in. However, ad- mitting that the task of substitution} is “humanly impossible,” we refose to strive to accomplish it. home some portion of a British subject and thus made the affair a serious - | international incident. This recalls a similar slip during the glorious days of the Mexican revolution. In the midst of the open season, while hunting Amer-| icans and Chinamen had displaced, bull fighting as the national sport -| of Mexico, some careless sportsmen killed an Englishman. You may recall what a shock that was to our state department. You may re- member the excitement, the anxiety | and indignation which broke the! dignified calm of that office. Mr. Bryan, mont({; before, had told Americans in Mexico to get, out \if they didn’t like Mexican manners. | He had washed his humanitarian hands of their troubles and direct- ed the third assistant janitor to throw the last petitioner down the long flight of steps to his office. Since that last dull thud which punctuated Mr. Bryan’s patriotism a pleasant quietude had reigned un- til that unlucky \faux p)as—the careless puncturing of the sacred system of a British subject. Then, indeed, righteous indignation blazed up in the state department and we trust it is not lacking at this mo- ment at the report that an English-| man has been or may have’ been wounded or even killed. We hope the government will act promptly and denergetically to dis-| courage by drastisaction this care less killing of British subjects. And| at the same time why not suggest| that there be a limit placed on the bag of Americans for any one! Chinaman? | THE CURSE OF A SCRAP | OF PAPER Dissatisfaction with the German| offer is echoed even in Germany. Instead of the united front with)! which we had been told all Ger-| many would support the Cuno pro- posals, there are plentiful indica- tions that many Germans consider the note to have been inexpedient. | No greater condemnation than this can be expressed by a German mind. Inexpediency is the unpar- donable crime. Already, there- fore, there is talk of ousting Cuno and of putting in some one who will make a better job of it. There are complaints that the note did not offer enough, that it was vague, that it was neither clear nor satis- factory to France in the matter of guarantees. Others, of course, say that it offers too much. But most significant of all is the indication that both the Socialists and the in- dustrialists believe that Germany could and should do more than was offered in the Cuno note. It goes without saying that this lack of confidence at home, confi- dence in the government confi- dence in the Cuno offer, confidence in the German finances, reacts un- favorably abroad. Without restored credit Germany will never get the assistance which she demands. This is one of the absurdities about the present offer. Germany expects to raise large loans, but not a word is said about German subscriptions to them. Everything is to come from abroad. did not even trust their government enough to subscribe $50,000,000 to a loan to help Germany’s cherished plans of passive resistance, sould foreigners take one hundred times that sum in a loan to help the Ger- man government do what it has steadily sought to avoid doing—pay reparations? Germany is suffering from the curse of a scrap of paper. The blow which she struck at her credit when she invaded Belgium is being returned upon her. To retrieve her good faith is her greatest task. If however, instead of appearing to make concessions as if she had won the war, Germany should freely and frankly confess defeat and admit that she must pay the penalty; if, instead of lamenting about what she couldn’t pay, instead of at- tempting evasion, instead of pre- tending bankruptcy which is really | manufactured, she should talk of | what she could and would pay; if in place of passive resistance she re- sorted to active deliveries; if, in- stead of blaming the entire world except herself for her troubles, she diligently set about curing them by her own acts, then Germany would begin to restore confidence and good will—that confidence which alone can procure for her the out- side aid which she needs, There is no question but that the is radical; but many persons think fashion. “THE AFFAIR BECOMES SERIOUS.” A dispatch-from Washington on} the Chinese raid, remarks! that “the it is admitted, ndered more serious by the fact British citizen is reported to been killed.” | is interesting to note.

F. Wells, Nine Mile country rancher, was bound over to the June term of district court on a charge of theft of 900 head of sheep. ‘The charge was brought by F. G. 8. Hesse, one of the largest sheep raisers in the west, and is the out- growth of a dispute between Wells and one of Hesse’s sheepherders last April, according to the evidence offered. | _ Fear that open conflict between Johnson county homesteaders and the sheep men may result has been expressed since Wells was held for trial. He was represented in the hearing before Joseph Reimann, jus- tice of the peace, by Hayden M. White of Buffalo, and R. G. Diefen- derfer of Sheridan, attorneys. Wells’ contention was’ that Hesse’s, sheep were grazing on his homestead and that he warned the herder to remove them. When the herder re- fused, Wells contends, he drove 900 In his corral to hold for damages. He claims he notified the Johnson county sheriff of his action prior to the issuance of a warrant. Wells was held under $750 bond, furnished by other homesteaders, who assert they will fight the case to a finish to prevent further alleged invasions of their lands by the sheep men. cake of al! kinds, try a loaf of our bread we are sure it will please. > ‘Try Tribune Classified for Results Monuments CASPER MONUMENT WORKS 505 E.
