American conservatives were once quite as terrified by the spread in this country of the ex- treme theories of the French Revolution as they are now ter- rified by the spread of Bolshev- ism. Yet the French Revolu- tion never shattered a single American institution and raised | no breed of Marats and Robes-! pieres. It set up no guillotines | on American soil and beheaded | no aristocrats. The American | Carrying aTon a Mile people threshed the issue out and | fe . 1 than Cen: went their way.

We are not afraid | of Bolshevism in the open, where} the American people can weigh | it and examine and consider it. | We are not afraid that the peo-| ple are going to rise up en masse | and join the I. W. W. to destroy | the institution of their own pri-| vate property, unless govern- | ment prevents them by force. The history of this country for! more than 140 years proves thay| the American people can be trusted, and in the long runa great deal further than the pro- fessional politicians that they generally select to represent them. The failures of popular government have always been failures of public opinion—of public opinion that was mis- guided by self constituted mast-| ers. Revolutionary doctrines} are not heralded by brass bands or shouted from house tops or the market place but are whis- pered in the ear of discontent and that can claim in its favor the test of martydom. There is no other such prolific breeder of revolution as reaction, and re- action is now engaged in capital- izing the militant patriotism that the war has aroused. It is denying freedom of speech,| denying freedom of assembly— denying the most sacred guar- antees of the Constitution that it professes to guard and defend. What we have said is not a plea for the new radicalism, for to us the most of this new radi- calism is the very negation of political and economic sanity. What we are pleading for is the} restoration of the traditions of our Republic, for the restora- tion of the proved safe guards of | human liberty, for the restora. tion of the free play of public} opinion, without which demo- eracy is stifled and cannot exist. | POINTED PARAGRAPHS, | =i Even the biggest fish began) ¢ life on a small scale. | If people mistrust you, pause The average charge for hauling aton of freight a mile is less than a cent. A suit of clothing that sold for $30 before the war was carried 2,265 miles by rail from Chicago to Los Angeles for 1644 cents, ' Now the freight charge is 22 cents and the suit sells for $50. ‘The cost of the suit has increased 20 dollars. ‘The freight on it has increased only 5} cents. Other transportation charges enter into the cost of the finished article—carrying the wool to the mills and the cloth to the tailors—but these other charges amount to but a few cents more, The $10 pair of shoes that used to sell for $5 goes from the New Eng- land factory to the Florida dealer for - a freight charge of 5% cents—only one cent more than the pre-war rate. ’ Beef pays “only two-thirds of a cent @ pound freight from Chicago to New York, t American freight rates are the low- est in the world.
