The government of Ger many is still in the hands of anti-militar- ists, anti-monarchists—republicans, in ef fect. The report is probably correct to the effect that Von Hindenburg's com paratively small majority was due to the “canno! are votes of the women—mothers of fodder”—and the women of Germany as human as any other, It is certain that Von Hindenburg is a strong disciplina- rian, which means that the “reds” will be kept down. It is feared that Von Hinden- burg visions a return of the kaiser. Why should he? In his old age Von Hinder burg finds himself the head of Germany As such he can do his part in restoring his country to happiness, influence among the nations and industrial prosperity and win a name in history that will be remen bered when kaisers are cursed into ob- livion. Why nat give him credit of such a vision? Why charge him with a vision of future war, when he has seen war al- most irredeemably wreck his country? Why believe that he will seek to make his country accursed among nations for all time thru foolish loyalty to an ex- ploded idea and to a man who ran away? Of course, France will have more or less hysterics. Of course, she will de- mand a riveted security pact and probably teject all propositions. for disarmament, Of course, there will be some confusion and weakness in the stock exchanges of the world. Of course, it will be harder for European nations, a rule, to bor- Yow money, or sell their securities. But all of these embarrassments to world re- cuperation and progress can be made but temporary, if the world goes ahead, hop- ing and working for the best, instead of fearing the worst. Even if Von Hindenburg, militarism, and monarchism are rpening the sword, they have behind them less than a million majority in a vote of over 30,- 000,000. The marching of Germany's women already begins to drown the noise of the “goose-step.’ It’s a chance for Von Hindenburg—if he'll take it. A “Crime Department” MID-WESTERN. newspaper, on the suggestion of the local women’s elubs, is trying the experiment of print- ing all the crime news together on the second page, reserving, however, the priv- lege of printing on the front page any ¢rime news so important that it would be so printed if it were social, business, sporting, or any other news normally classified. But this exception illustrates the essen- tial inconsistency of the whole scheme. The good ladies, not familiar with the newspaper business, doubtless had no other idea than to “play down” rather than “play up” the undesirable crime news, which they would really prefer not to have printed at all. But market, sporting, social and other classified news groups are not given pages by themselves to subordinate them. They are classified because they are in- tended for specialists, who want all the Toutine happenings of a certain class, whether they are of general interest or not. A similar treatment of crime would make the crime page include a list of all the day’s arrests, regardless of news in- terest or importance, together with such ee te ee Ae : Published Dally by The Bter month. | telegraphic crime information as the chief | of police would want Most of this news is not printed now, | and need not be printed at all, Crime i not news unless it is of general, non-pro- fessional interest.

Which seems to be a fair ruling. When running for office, these same state legis- lators promised to be faithful servants of the people and to be on the job all the time. If they have reasonable excuse for their absence, well and good. If not, the fines should hold. It’s only fair to be penalized for failure to do one’s duty. The First One HERE'S an old English maxim, the famous old English Judge Co that ry dog is entitled to one bite.” Modern application of that ruling is to be found in a recent court decision in Los Angeles.
