Discovery of sewage in the waters Con- any of Rock creck where the children bathe makes its essary to check the use of this water until Le | purif Obviously t ers cannot be permitted to use the creek so long as there is any possibility that they will contract typhoid or oth diseases borne by sewage. The exam- as far made show th d condition. It several districts > water wn of inations tb to be in 1 that in north Washington sewage is turned into ek. The suburban sanitary is now to be asked to abate this nuisance, and if the com- munities that follow the present prac- tices do not correct them they may be enjoined by the federal government. Apart from the question of the bealth of the children who use the creek for-bathing, it is plainly unde- sirable that th cam should be used as an open Sew Tt is the chief fe: ture of the largest park in the Di trict. It attracts to its banks mul tudes of people. The pollution of the stream is an offense 1o them. Tts waters should be kept clear. If the practice of using it for sewage di posal is not stopped now it will in- crease with the development of the suburban areas of Maryland, and the time cannot be far distant when the ereek will be =0 foul as to drive away all frequenters of the park. Prompt measures are necessary in this case. The use of a small open stream for sewage' disposal is the poorest possible method. The com- munities that adopt it have no thought for others, and must be made to change the £ sewage d posal to conform to the laws of public health. —_——e—— America has been threatened with olation because of her pes pro- grams. France is threatened with th same thing because of a suspicion of militarism. ! The Day of the Flag. Observance of Flag day has become ,a national custom without the estab- lishment of an additional holiday. The day is observed in many ways, by the display of the flag, by brief exercises, by special publications. In one way and gnother the attention of the peo- ple is directed to the fact that the flag has reached another birthday an- niversary and to the story of its origin. This makes for good citizen- ship. The flag may become a common- place to many if it {s not thus occa- sionally emphasized as a symbol. It 4hould never be regarded as a mere bit of decorative bunting, used to give color to a building on ceremonial occasions or to designate certain offi- cial places. Whenever seen it should ‘be recognized as a token of national- ‘ 4ty, and its components appreciated 4n their full meaning. . The flag Is seen so0 often that prob- ably few pause to grasp its signifi- i eance. Every feature of it has s aym- Ly L3 resenting the thirteen original states. There is the fleld of blue signifying the heaven, which in turn means a It is spotted providential guidance. with stars, as are the physical heavens, and each siar represents a One number state of the expanding nation. v have grown in until now there are forty-cight in six eight stars onfined within an unbroken space, signifying the unity of the components of the nation. most beautiful and ex. all the But apart from patriotic feeling it i recognized. and plain. no he pleture.

I To recognize the soviet government while this declaration stands would be to acqui n repudiation of the $£200,000,000 war debt owed this gov- jernment by Russia. This the United ismm certainly could not do so long jas it refuses to cancel the dehts owed by the allies who were faithful to the end. And if Russia is not bound to com- pensate for losses suffered as the re- sult of legislation which she “has chosen in the exercise of her sovereign rights to give herself,” there can be no assurances that she would not “choose to give herself” some more legislation which would result in the loss of any fresh American capital loaned to or invested in Russia. Poincare may prefer the sending of experts to The Hague to a break with England, but it is a safe bet that France 1l neither recognize the so- viet government nor do business with it on the basis of avoidance of the meniorandum of May 11. It will have to be withdrawn before any agree- ment with Russia can be worth the paper it is written upon. ———————————— The fighting temperament of the Irish patriots leaves it open to ques- tion whether they are not occasionally inclined to put pleasure before busi- ness. —————————————— Muscle Shoals could have utilized the publicity accorded it more suc- cessfully if it were a summer resort instead of a nitrate producer. ————————— The Hohenzpollerns have managed to ave enough from the wreckage to -1 keep the Kkitchenette going comfort- 1ably.

The formal announce- ment has just been made. The pri- mary election will be held July 18. When Mr. Bryan left Nebraska there were those who jumped to the conclusion that the change of resi- dence would be greatly to the advan- tage of Mr. Hitchcock; that the latter would now be the undisputed master of the democratic situation in the state and able to mold things to suit him- self. & This was hasty. Mr. Hitchcock has a contest on his hands. There is op- position to his renomination. A farm- ers’ movement is on, and the anti- ‘Wilsonites in the party are not pleased with Mr. Hitchcock’s record as a Wilsonite in the Senate.

C, WEDNESDAY, JUNE 14, 1922. New Tests for U. S. Employes Make for a Higher Efficiency there need be no surprise that he is appearing-in the present calculations; that he should be accused of stirring up this anti-Hitchcock sentiment, and directing it from a distance. But nothing is offered in support of the charge. It seems to rest on the assumption that Mr. Bryan on lea ing Nebraska did not cancel his ani- mosities, but packed them in his grip and took them with him, and will draw them out and use them as the spirit moves him.

SHOOTING STARS. Music. Tommy Dinkins used to play Tunes to drive dull care away On an old mouth organ, which Had a tone quite far from rich. ‘When he struck up ‘“‘Home, Home,"” Everybody longed to roam. Used to beg him to desist. Tommy always played the list Of selections he had learned, Taking encores all unearned. Often, now, in memory dreams, Dear old Tommy Dinkins seems To be playing, as of yore. ‘With bare foot he taps the floor, Or goes marching down the street, To himself & band complete. When I hear the music grand By some jazzerino band, ‘With the syncopations queer As wild rhythms jar the ear, Then T wish that time would turn Backward, that I might discern Tommy Dinkins, playing there. Freckled, and with tousled hair, Breathing tunes that linger stiil ‘With affection’s gentle thrill; ‘Wish that he were here today! I would hand him a bouquet I¢ he'd blow a tune or two, Same as what he used to do.

The acquittal of Blizzard has been accept- «d as at least ending the suggestion that the Mingo riots constituted either war or trs on. But the an- nouncement that the other men In- dicted are to stand trial on the trea- son charge has come as a surprise o the editors generally, who su some other crime should have been editors Virginta plan to That the original 4indictment too many complexities seems to be the general belief because, as the Baltimore Sun carefully points out, the truth is that the charge of trea- S0n was a preposterous one to bring under the circumstances. Blizzard have been guilty of many other things, morally and legally, but it is impossible to believe that he medi- tated treason against the state. or that ke was actually gullty of any. thing that constitutes that offe Even the armed macch itself did not constitute treason, in’ the view of the New York World, because “it cannot be treason by any definition to rebel against a denfal of constitutional guarantees,” and If a “state of war xisted,” the New York Tribune in- sts, “it was a dual state of war. Blizzard has been found not guilty of treason in the restricted sense. But what broader verdict is to be returned on general conditions in West Vir- ginia?" The verdict also was not sur- prising, the S cause “much X blamed on the arrogance and unfair s of paid hirelings toward union- and sympathizers. Of course the demonstration staged by the striking miners was unlawful, but that union officials encouraged or sanctioned law violation was effectively disproved during the recent trial.” <o far as the verdlct was con- the Fort Wayne Journal-Gaz « -lieves that ‘Americanism scored a victory in the acquittal If the acquitted man had committed a crime it could have been reached other laws than that covering treason in West Virginia.” There was ltttle doubt that the miners were engaged \ “an unlawful mission,” the Ashe- ville Times points out, but “prosecu- tion” in this case “became persecu- tion, and the sentiment of the coun- try—and perhaps the court—deserted it Anvhow, the “whole proceedings were ill advised,” the St. Louis Globe- Democrat is convinced, because “hard-working miners may affront the law, but they don’t plot treason.” Thi¢ all being so. the Pittsburgh Press thinks that the threats of fur- ther trials will not work out, because if the officials “are determined to make themselves ridiculous that is | the way to go about i 3 the Chattanooga News further as serts, “passed upon a far more im- portant thing than merely William Blizzard: it passed on the lives of his 200 compatriots and on the ethical status of the whole coal war.” Their verdict, in the opinion of the Provi- dence Evening Tribune, shows that the “jurymen saw the charge to be an outrageous and false one,” and their verdict “is a proof that their sanity was in no sense impaired by the fierce fires of hatred, prejudice and i1l will that were burning about them.” Characterizing the trial as “the most preposterous. of the century the Minneapolis Star labels the charge of treason as “preposterous. The treason, #f there was any, W not against the state of West Vir- ginia, but against the mine owners’ local government, which has super- seded popular government in the mining districts of West Virginia,” and if the result “means any practi- cal reform in Logan county the pub- lic should find it even more pleasing.” the New York Globe points out; “meanwhile the government of West Virginia will probably take measures to disassociate itself from the opera- tors who so nearly succeeded in mak- ing themselves the state.” Fully agreeing that the acts complained of were illegal, the Grand Rapids Press belleves that to convict Blizzard’s fellow miners “of treason against the state might serve a technical pur- pose of example, but to do so, as is planned, without any collateral ac- tion against the mine tyranny, is an injustice against_which American thought revolts. If there is no way to bring the privileged instigators to trial it will be better to let these miners go their way.' One of. the greatest points involved in the present case, the Newark New: suggests, is tha; bor, at least, cannot complain that was denfed justice in the court: The Lincoln State Journal character- izes the verdict ss suggesting W Virginfa “still contains the ‘while the New I | i &l i { | ! | EDITORIAL DIGEST | ball game. | stances. alleged if the suits were not dropped. | had | | session {for no self-resy I Thus there are lescons WE SPECIALIZE furniture.
