At not exactly, the same mo- ment forest fircs were raging in Can- ada, while we are accustomed to horrible automobile accidents that we rather look for than are shocked by them. The whole array of incidents represented by these particular hap- penings brings to mind Owen Wister’s impressive indlictment of one side of our national character, as made in his widely read book, “The Pentecost of Calamity.” Contrasting our happy- ! it was not almost, if little doubt the Supreme Court will | go-lucky methods with the care and | stead of a safeguard. | it. | lutely many before the war, he wrote: “I had sailed away from skyscrapers and limited expresses; from farmers sow- ing crops wastefully; from houses burned through carelessness; from forests burned through carelessness; from heaps of fruit rotting on the ground in one place and hundreds of men hungry in another place.”” It Is not a pretty picture, and its ugliness i§ not lessened by being placed beside the picture of almost any other coun- try on the globe, Carclessness is one of our most con- spicuous traits. Tt appears in virtually evervthing we do. The tendency to takc more deserving the pen of the foreign cartoonist than the greed for gold which he so delights to caricature as the chief element in the character.

Special warnings, given both by con- spicuous notices at rajlway crossings and large newspaper advertisements, have heen met by demands from auto- mobilists to the gateman to raise tne gates and let the driver show him that there is no danger.

The real task of the traffic policeman is not to “direct traffic, but to drag hurrying men and women out from under the heels of horses or the wheels of motor cars Our national bill for fires has long been one of the wonders of the world. How large a part carelessness plays in them is indicated by every report of an fnvestigation or of an insurance com- pany.

Our calamity list for one day has been vastly re- duced. What we have done for this one occasion we can do upon a larger scale. But we shall have to give up the childish idea that liberty means freedom to disregard consequences. e unknown ure also ‘Without Honor, (Providence Journal.) The German government, ad- dressing the United States government on the question of the offi- cers of the Kronprinz Wilhelm and Prinz Titel Friedrich who violated the engagements given in their be- half and escaped from this country, indulges in some fine-spun ethical dis- tinctions. We are seriously asked by Berlin to believe that the vanished Teutons are not morally culpable because, in the first place, the commanders of the in- terned vessels “‘did not sufficiently in- struct their officers and crews regard- ing the significance of the urance’ (versicherung) given by them;" and in the second place, because “the ex- pression ‘pledge’ chosen by Rear Admiral Beatty in his letter to the commanders does not conform abso- to the ea of the honor.” This is in interned ‘word of hair-splitting comprehension of most have a theiy conduct beyond of us.

The interned officers who broke their pledge. or ignored their “as ance” or violatéd their ‘word honor"—call it what will—did a shameful thing.

No cement was used in the construction, the strength of the walls being due to the very irrgi- larity of the blocks and the method in which they were locked together.

MchiLi AN 199-201-203 MAIN STREET. Busting the « York The World regrets to report an un- fortunate controversy between the Hon. Elthu Root and the Hon. Staats- Zeitung, both ardent members of Mr. | Hughes' Dominant Americanism club. Mr. Root is all for Robert Bacén as the republican candidate for United States sengtor, and has issued a state- ment explaining how Mr. Bacon “would be of immense value to Mr. Hughes in the conduct of the foreign affalrs of the United States The Staate eitung’'s Dominant American- ism gags at the very thought of Bacon, and it denounces him as “one of the most unmasked, unneutral per- sons In the United States This is a most unfortunate state of things. The republican organization is in partnership with the German vote and cannot repudiate its part- ner. It was the German vote that demanded the nomination of Mr Hughes at Chicago, and It was the German vote that furnished most the inspiring sentiment, ‘“America First and Efficient.” Why should any misguided republican try to tamper with the Hughes-Kaiser entente putting up a candidate for senator who is persona non grata in the Wil- helmstrasse and at Potsdam? If the Hughes-Whitman machine fafls to prevent this outrage, Dominant Amer- icanism is done for. Mr. Bacon ought to retire from the the contest. This is no year for an ‘“unneutral’”’ person to run for office on the republican ticket. It is a year for only those republican candidates whose Dominant Amerfcanism can stand the Imperial German test.
