A PHARISEE NATION? At Lausanne “our Mr, Grew,” as @ictators of business letters would phrase it, is representing Your Un- cle Sam. He is empowered by Sec- retary of State Hughes to negot!- ate a treaty or treaties of amity with Turkey. Of course these treaties must be ratified by con- gress to become effective; but it is highly likely that congress will do just that little thing, in view of the xecent Chester grants to American interests. The worthy Boston Transcript, in commenting on this state of affairs, mays that the presence of Minister Grew at Lausanne, with authority to bind the United States with our late enemy the Terrible Turk, proves that “the United States can still function in foreign affairs as an independent nation.” The ‘Transcript is one of the bitterest op-| ponents of the leaxue, the world! court, and other hideous “foreign entanglements.” It rejoices daily dn any instance ef magnificent iso- lation on the part of the United Btates. The Transcript is indubftably cor rect. We need not be bound to any other nation or group of nations by high-minded ideals and noble as pirations to “function in foreign af- fairs.’ And if the Turks will give) us oi] in Anatolia, railroad conces-} sions and other privileges for ex-| tracting a vast amount of wealth) from their country in return for its| development, we will make a treaty| with them—prot But there is}! ho particular re: with pride to such a tre speak of it as a “protection of the rights of American citizens in Turkey.” It is, basically a treaty negotiated for) our economic advantage. That is! perfectly proper in itself, so lons} as we keep in mind the fact that| our motives are not purely unself | bh. | As a nation we are known abroad Bs money-grabbers; at least in many quarters. We are also known as the philanthropic helpers of Russia’s starving millions, the rebuilders in| part of devastated France. We) succor. We help to feed Europe; but we don’t consider her our social | equal. We succor the miserable Ar-| menians; bind their Turkish wounds; and negotiate a most| friendly treaty 1 the Turks. Are we, before the bar of world ppinion, a sort of Pharisee; a Phari | jee generous with money, perhaps, ? Do we not but still a Pharisec tand back as a nation and beat loud to the Heave t “God, we thank thee that we are not as other nations are; sorcerers, adulterers, or even as these poor publican Europeans?” That is.a posture that even the Transcript may not relish. The ges- ture is too redolent of our own proud opinion of ourselves to be en- tirely pleasing.

The evangelist also de- clares that college professors and | scientists who say otherwise than what he says or who differ with him on the question of Darwinism are | “fools and mollycoddles.” Mr. Bryan is also wrought up * Darwiniam. We confess to a re to ask these two men on or two, They assert that Jerwinism {s all nonsense and can not be proven. We do not deny any of the beliefs of Christianity, but how under the sun are you go- ing to prove the assertion of Chris- tians? Paul believed salvation rest- ed on faith, and faith alone, and Peter preached that eternal life was seeured by works. Now who among us can settle it save by faith? We ask Mr. Sunday and Mr. Bryan to even offer any kind of proof that there is eternal life, and they ans- wer that some one vears ago said so. The: is more evidence that Dar- win is right than that Bryan and Sunday are right. sate MAKING SOLDIERS OF BANDITS The Chinese bandits who kid- mapped American and European travelers are now being enrolled in the Chinese army as a means of solving the situation and obtaining the freedom of the captives. It is novel method of procedure. Instead of simply giving ransom, the Chinese government must needs hand out money and confer honors upon the brigands who stultified its most ardent efforts. Here is a tip to highwaymen and Kidnappers. The bandit business is good in China, Not only is the market for foreigners excellent with every indication that the de mand will continue to exceed the supply, but if you're a good bandit you can make a deal with the gor- ernment for a commission in the army after you sold the foreigners to the government.

With ite thousands of |characters in each of a thousand dialects the present means of human communication is impossibly awk- ward. No wonder China's govern- ment is weak, when ignorance, the foe of all good government, can not be fought among the masses with such a language.

According to present speculation, there will be between four and five hundred visttors here for the two | big days of the Lions district con- vention. Dr. M. I. Morris, secretary of the local organization, tells us that he has heard from about half the clubs of the state and the number as sched- uled to come here has already passed the thtee hundred mark. Even though the local club {s not notified before the convening date, it is | thought a hundred or more Lions will be present without forwarding this information.
