It is to determine whether for the next four years we shall have a re- urn 1o representative government as de- tined by the comstitution, or whether we shall struggle along further under the sutocracy that has distinguished the Wilson administration. Senator Harding freely admits that he Is not big enough to run the whole gov- ernment alome. President Wilson with whom the democratic candidate, Govern- sr Cox, finds himself “as one,” has not gesitated to lay down rules for the Iftorld and insist that they were the pro- duet of such super-wisdom that it was snly men of small minds who would not sceept them. Semator Harding is against government and believes ~sponsibility. He would choose a cabi- met of competent men and make the vice president a real factor in the gov- ernment. He w: no rubber-stamp one-man in party re- s —allegiance and subservience.

But the real work come in poking in- o twenty million kitchens and as many sellars to see that no fermentation be- rond one-half of one per cent. has seen going on. That difficulty was par- lly dodzed by the special order on ‘frult juices,” which established the ule of reason without regard to the tatute. Of coyrse Unele Sam is rich enough te ’)ay a million es salaries at the ex- _sonse of 99 0 non-spies. But he _=n't going to do Even as it is there = a shortage of funds. Meanwhile, sa- cons, while fewer, are not suppresed liough that was the end in view that wdvoeates of the prohibition law had. 'wners may not do so much in volume 'f business, as compared with former imes but they get fabulous prices, and nany ‘of them confes that they never nade so much money before in their #ives. The decreased volume of business wuts eests, while the higher prices add © profits. This virtual flouting of the aw eanmot go om forever. It might be topped by empleying the million spies, 5r better by exempting the home and irm from invasion and then really stop- sing the illegal sales of liquor, through e use of the present fores of officers, sroperly handled. This is what men who ‘avored prohibition had most in their ninds, a genuine uncomplicated anti- &@loon movement. FIGHT ON THE CLOSED SHOP The Chicago federation of laber pree.

With that ::d in view the federation has author- ised ite president to appointa committee fifteen for the purpose of “actively ing to battle with the United States amber of commerce on the closed @op proposition” and of devising means “ preventing open shops. Certain prin- ples seem to have been clearly estab- hed and have their bearing at the out- of such a One of them— | shall €00~ { e legally be required to discharge em- ployes simply beeause they are not members of a upion, neither can he be torbldden to employ them for that rea- n cumot. be sald that any society is a free society where ‘these principles .I-I'edenjed- If, in apy trade, all the men in that trade were organized, there would be ne such thing as a closed shop, for there would be no ome against whom it could be closed.

Yet this womld be the effect of the compuilsery en- forcement of the cicsed shop principle. It is suggested that both parties to the comtroversy inform themselves con- cerning the law of the case. Nothing can be more impertant thap the main- tenance of American liberty, and of the Institutions that protect it. This is the point which it is eecually mecessary to keep in mind for it is.gne on Wwhieh there mus: be general 2greement. MORE COERCION FOR IRELAND Premies Lloyd George's new measurs of coercien which he prepeses to apply te lreland quite exceeds in repressive features anything to which Irekand has been cubjecled in some time. ‘Worst ameng these is the oportunity to apply it with favoritism and ;with no guarantee of uniformity. Iron rule from Dublin eastle is to take the place of the law of the lamnd. The military counts will handle all offenses, trial by jury will be virtpally abolished and the habeas corpus will be suspend- ed, while ex post facto application of the law is irstituted. A sharp line is drawn between Ulster and the rest of the troubled land for mamy of the feat- ures of the new measure éo not apply to Ulster at all. Two notable regulations for the gov- ernment of Ireland are recalled by this new emergepey measure, vehich in many respects is not unlike theen. The first was in the Crimes Act of 1881 and the second the Crimes Bill of ‘the following year, both under Gladstone as prime minister. Three years later the Irish- men at Westminster upset the British ministry and brought about a change of heart in Gladstone. But coercion under Gladstone’s plan failed to put the land league out of bus- iness although the police were made rent coliectors and Mr. Parnell was ar-{ rested for adveeating nen-payment of rent. Coercion inflicted vast wrongs up- on the Irish people witheut helping the landlords much except in multiplying evictions, while hoMings were not easily rented again. Home rule and land referm have since then continued to bes the keynote of Irish discussion, but are now repiaced by the one watchword of the Sinn Feiners, ! which is independence. Bad as the state of violence may have been in the 80's, it is admittedly worse now than ever be- fore; and there is intolerance on both sides, though this may not be so read- ily admitted. Lloyd Gegrge might well had taken heed of the results of coer- cion once tried before and wouid have! {better gone some parleving before he resorted to his proposed drastic meas- 8.

Sick Room: If it is possible to pro- vide it, every home should contain one |sunny bedroom with plain or washable walls and furniture, without carpets cr draperies, that can be used as an isola- { tion sick room in case of iliness or emer- sency. Burns or Scalds: For other than small and light burns, send for a physician. The child may die from shock. Emergeney treatment: Remove cloth- ing by cutting where necessarp. Avoid dirty ointments or oils because of the danger of infection. Apply to burn as quickly as possible several layers of soft cloth wet with solution of baking soda. Keep ajr away from burn. As soon as pain is allayed, apply zinc oxide oint- ment and bandage. GLEANED FROM FOREIGN EXCHANGES. ‘When the king and queen and Princess Mary visit Tynwald Hill during their tour of the Isle of Man they will see an historic but not an impressive spot. Nei- ther will the royal visitors find the “as- cent” a tiring process, for the famous hill, on which the laws of the island ‘are promulgated, cannot claim o great alti- tude. It is not even a natural feature, but an artificial circular mound a few feet high, which is ‘ascended by steps. 'The name is derived from the island's legis- lature, both branches of which—the council and the houp> of keys—assemble on the hill every year to hear the bills which they have passed promulgated be- fore fhey become law. of glycerine, i milk small-size package sterilized sterilized ab- i Anglo-Japanese Alliance.—The Anglo- Japanese treaty, which is to be referred to the league GF nations, was entered in- to in September 1905.

The treaty made an offensive and defensive alliance between the two powers. Its scope was extended to In- dia and Eastern Asia generally, and pledged the signatories to come to each other's armed assistance in the event of their rights in these regions being as- sailed by any ether power. That treaty was rightly regarded both in and outside Japan as the most memorable incident in her modern career. That Passport!—Compiaints continue to reach us of the little lets and hind- rances experienced bpWose intreid voy- agers who are taking their holidays abroad in the matter of their passport. One correspondent who has just 1e- turned from a short holiday spent mostly in Switzerland gives a list of the fees he had to pay while traveling from place to plays—London visa, 5 shillings; Lausanne, 8 francs; Chdtelard, 2 francs; Brigue, 2 franes; Locarno, § franes; Lucerne ,3 francs; Loecarno, 8 francs; on the other hand, no fees were de- manded, the visa in London being con- sidered sufficient. Fragile Money.—Germayy’s idea of re- placing _small paper money’ by porce- lain Lurrency is at least original. The one ad\antave that china money will possess is that it can be easily washed. But it can searcely be other th: brit- tle, and “broke” in relation to financial instability will acquire a new meaning.

Abbot Kindersley is the son of a well known member ‘of the Indian civil service, and was educated at Downside.
