BIRTHDAY OF SELF-.GOVERN- MENT. Self government in the New World "Bad its day of birth just 300 years ago Aoday when the general assembly in e little, struggling colony . at jamestown, Va., met for the first time. Jt was small beginning of what was develop in the course of three cen- ries into the greatest democracy at the world has known. In the twelve vears from the set- Hement in 1607 the Jamestown col- "oy had come to number probably 1,- 900 people scattered among the vari- ¥us plantations along tidewater. In that year nearly another 1,000 came a0 swell the number of the colony and the proprietary company in England “Was impressed to listen to the plea of the colonists that only by self-gov- ~sernment could the -community be Made to prosper permanently 7 By the decision of the company, the .garticipation of the individual in the S~@ffairs of the government of the col- S "®ny was to be permitted through the | {iprovision that there should be two ~~podies, one to be formed of the gov- ernor and council, selected and _ ap- tpointed by-the company at home, and the other of a council of state and house of burgesses elected in the col- ony. h elected representatives of the --people in America, who met on July -ud0, 1619, with the governor and coun- =il in a general assembly which was _T™the forerunmer and prototype of all the state governments to follow in + .¥he course of time. ~ On that day in the little church in Jamestown, self-government was born in America, and a mighty nation of @ hundred million people rejoices in Z3he results of the experiment. o In this vear when the country is 1 Saying down its arms after an epoch- 3o making participation in the affairs of "*%he world, the 30th of June, 1619, the birthday of seif government, attains 2 significance that carnot be over- Jooked. i EMPIRE BUILDING. 7% There is an empire building move- ~.fment going on in the southern states that is attracting attention in widely hescattered parts of the American con- s tinent. Even Canada. twhich some years ago undertook to attract settiers s—drom the United States, is apparently in danger of losing some of her own FSettlers. Some of the men who were induced to g0 to Canada during the past de- cade or so are now thinking of getting southern states of the Unior, according to information received in Washington. After the trving days of the w war God's country looks better than it ever did before to these is a settlement and development to bring into productive e large areas of low- developed land, which, . makes for the oppor- While this southern development | movement has so far been largely carried on in the couthwestern states and one or two Gulf states, it is cap- turing the imagination of forward looking people in the Interfor states 8 of the Mississipni valley and other Wmmections © t vast region bounded —=On the north b the Potomac and nd south by nd on the| southwest nde. It is a home buii home owning campaign, especially on farms. In a bill that has been presented in congress to provide for community settlements for American veterans in the world conflict, the southern states see the value of directing congres- sional attention towards their sec- tion in the expectation of showing that the south has the most available rritory for carrying out land de- felopment as 2 means of establishing returning soldiers in the national life. OUTCRY AGAINST PALMER. For doing his work too well as alien property custodian of the United States. Attorney General Palmer is made the target for an attack by the rmans in Berlin. It is no more than onwas to be expected and nothing which Mr. Palmer or Americans should T"ose much sleep over. In fact our ~.sensations should be the opposite of “concern over the German charges, for s#heir complaints only 2o to prove that Mr. Palmer hit the Hohenzollern crowd where it hurt. _ While Germany was looking for a Fonquest of the world by the sword, the Prussian plan also involved a commercial conquest through its far- _flung outposts of Cerman-owned in- dustrial plants or companies, of which 2585000 or more were in the United tates. Mr. Palmer procured a law with “teeth in it” and prompily pro- 553 Bullein’ Jo» Offtes 35-2. tempts. - Among the 35,000 property interests taken over there were many that were innocent, but it was the largest and best known that Mr. Palmer and ithe secret service showed were in full co-operation with - the German gov- ernment in a propagande designed to undermine~American industries and set up hostile centers in every part of the United States. It was these, such as the Hamburg-American and the North German Lioyd lines, the Oren- stein-Koppel Company. . the Bosch Magneto Company, the Bayer Chemi- cal Company, the St. Andrews Bay Lumber Company of Florida, ~that were organized for quite other pur- poses than innocent industrial and commercial pursuits. He throttled this German conspir- acy and they know it. The money that rightfully belongs to any German investor awaits dis- tribution whenever congress decides, and the one-time imperial government knows it can make no claim that propaganda to match their own was carried on in Germany by American- owned companies which were ruth- lessly confiscated.

B baggage smashers .do their PRESIDENTIAL SECRETIVENESS. Reluctantly the president has vielded to the senate’s demand to give them the freaty separately negotiated. with France. Why this secretive- ness can only be surmised. Before the French assembly the two treaties are being considered together, and that seems to have been the under- standing of the way they should have| been handled. but President Wilson chose to disregard this natural way of handling related subjects, prefer- ring to divide them. Why is it not safe to let the peo- ple Know all the essential facts of the treaty to which they are asked to give assent? It is a matter of vital importance to America which should have the open light of publicity. Such a policy of secretiveness im- pels the belief that the people are no more being told all now than they were in 1916, when the administration knew that war was only a little way ahead and yet made capital of the campaign cry, He Kept us out of war. Nor in fact is this the only part of the transactions on which the presi dent has been ignoring the senate's mand for information. The treaty has )een published, and its text is known, ust was the text of the main treaty in advance of its delivery to he senate. Requests for details with {.cgard to the private compacts be- tween England, France and Japan 1ave not been complied with. Sena- tors are given confidentially such in- sight into the secrets of the Paris | as the president thinks may them in their judgment, but hat is all. Supporters of the president speak tcriously of the effect America’s | ons will have upon the world. | What America does will surely af- cct America first, and “Ameriea first” eems like a pretty good doctrine for Americans. Dr. Osler comes to the front again after a long silence. He is opposed to prohibition. The man on the eorner says: Hunt- ing the oases in the Connecticut Sa- hara will now fall into the daily rou- tine for many. The proposal to repeal the tax on ice cream and soft drinks served at fountains will be a popular summer move. \ Since so many cities have been given trolley problems to solve, Shank’s mare has been found a ser- viceable beast. i England has been asked by Foch to keep a large supply of military ma- terial in reserve. The marshal has an eye to the future. ‘With the price of meat out of reach, half a million cattle are reported to be near starvation because of drought on the Alberta range. Whispers into the ears of senators are in strange contrast to the pro- nouncement for open covenants openly arrived at. One after another of the' leaders of EDITORJAL NOTES.
