BOLSHEVISM AND HIMAS
NATUtE.
Many people who reeogniie that
there la little tendency lo bolsheviBm
in America are afraid that the new
menace, having swept over Poland,
will fiver-run western Europe and
ih,n nric harm in many ways to
i.n i.i,.ni and institutions. But
ufM,,M it Inut lime: enouieb. even If
trluinDhant. to "destroy European
civilization" or any other Civilization?
Modern civilization, despite Its
oft spots, la pretty tough, on the
whole. And Bolshevism, like any
oiher Ism, la no atronger than human
nature. Now, what is the history of
radicalism, with individuala, groupa
and nations? Turned successful,
hut hnnnena to it?
For a "close up," emblematic of
the whole business, look at France,
There was never any more radical
nation than the French, in their red
revolution. And what followed?
Submission to an emperor, and then
gradual development of solid demo
cratic Institutions combining person
al liberty with property rights. To
day there la no more conservative
people in Ihe world lhan the French
a nation of "bourgeola" shop
keepers. bond-Holders and small
land-owners.
Successful radicalism prospers
materially. When those who had
nothing get something, then, Just
like everybody else, they want to
keen It. Individualism reasserts it'
self. Acquisitiveness strengthens.
Itespect for property develops. Your
dangerous radical little by little,
turns bourgeois the proletarian be
comes middle-class Ihe erstwhile
Red ends as a conservative, demand
lng law and order and recognition of
vested rights.
That is already happening in It us
sia. The peasants, having got pos
session of the land, are determined
to keep it, not in common, but Indi
vidually. Lenlne In Industry Is com
promising with the bourgeois class.
If he personally succeeds in a big
way, he'U probably end as a master-
capitalist. As for the nation, the
property-respecting conservatism of
the peasants Is more likely to domi
nate the Industrial population than
the Industrial radicalism is to domi
nate the peasant majority, for peas
ant and factory worker are the same
at heart. Russia eventually will be
as bourgeois as France, and the old
er nations of western Europe will
continue lo go their own way, along
the established lines of human nature.
iior all the wild howling about
Brltlih control of the oil resources of
the world, It la reassuring to hear
from a recognised authority thui
America Instead of Europe leads in
oil resources and that In the loreign
fields the United Stales nas n.-av)
holdings. It is estimated that at
present there are some 6,6H),ouo,00
barrels of oil still underground In
the known oil-producing ar-us. while
there la' ground of favorable char
acter as yet undeveloped In most of
the states of the Union. In addition
to Ihe free petroleum within the
Uulted 8tiiles, there is also lo be
considered as a source of supply the
vast oll-shule deposits, from which
present surveys and estimates show
more oil could be recovered than
from the natural petroleum beds.
There may be grave diplomatic ques
tions Involved in the control of oil
deposits in Mesopotamia, for diplo
macy is a strange and devious thing;
but so far as present, practical con
siderations are concerned, there
seems little to worry about.

that they are strangers to send child

children of that district are thor
oughly acquainted with Ihe law gov

these cases In a day, and acquaint
the teachers with the facts. Children
will co-operate in any activity, or
put over nny reform, and do It In the

Controversy over Ihe new Califor

owning rights of Asiatics serves to
call renewed attention to the menace
of Oriental competition In trade.
Callfornlans and, in fact, residents of
all the Pacific Coast stales, are de
termined to shut out Oriental labor
because it works on a standard, of
Income and living with which an
American will not compete. The
Japs In particular drive the American
fruit growers and gardeners out of
business. It Is reported that more
than 16.000,000 worth of American
made textile machinery was shipped
to the Orient last year, and Ihe pro

CANT RUSH TO SAGHALIEN
Japanese Government Bar All but
Business Firms Approved by
War Office.
There will be no rush of adventur
ers to the new fields for exploitation
opened up by the Japanese occupation
of Russian Saghallen, according to Mr.
Murakami, chief of the fishery bureau
of the department of agriculture and
commerce, who la quoted In the l'o
mluri: "None except those who really mean
business and are In a position to se
riously transact business will find any
place for them In Baghallen," said M.
Murakami. "All rights there are In
the bands of the military command,
and anyone that wants to go there,
row must obtain a permit from tha
war office. Certainly the forests there
will yield plenty of wood pulp and
other raw material, while there ore
rich coal mines and possibly oil wells.
But the chief product of that region Is
the output of the fisheries."
Speaking of the fishing rights In Sag
hallen, Mr. Murakami said that after
consultation with the army command
an auction was conducted at Nlko
lalevsk for those nights over which the
army command Is able to furnish pro
tection. No detailed report of the auc
tion has been received. The bidders
had to file their applications with
deposit to guarantee their good faith,
and they had to be persons who were
qualified by long experience In fish,

Sentiment Is Against the Law
lessness Which Is Result
of Ignorance.
HURT COTTON INDUSTRY
.lei of Violence Have Taken Var
ious Koihik and .Many .Negro
Fttinilk-a Have Heeli lHlven
J-Toui their Home.
LITTLE ROCK, Ark., Nov 17
llesponsible sentiment in this state
is running strongly against night
riding which has been undertaken In
this and other cotton growing stales
to prevent the ginning and market
ing of cotton at the present low price.
Representative planters, hankers and
busines men feel strongly that this
lawlessness is giving the South a bad
"bluck eye.''
At a receat meeting of the Arkan
sas division of iho American uotlo,
Association here, night riding was
condemned as an act of gross ignor
ance, tiov. ilrough has taken a vig
orous stand against such actions,
and he has further support, among
others, from Claude Fitzpatrlck, the
nresidint of the Arkansas Hunkers
Association. All the forces of Iho
slute and locaj governments ill Ark
ansas are now co-operating to pre
vent further lawlessness In the cot
inn winning centers.
The counter movement Is believed
to lie doing much to stop the actlvi
ties of the night riders. Mass meet
ings ha,ve been leld in muny towns
and the co-operation of the citizens
has been proffered the officers In the
maintaining of order.
Acta of violence for which the
night riders have been given credit
In Arkansas have taken various
forms, in addition to the burning of
gins, warehouses and other property,
fanners who attempted to murket
their cotton have been threatened
with death or severe punishment,
and in some cases have been budly
maltreated. Negro families have been
intimidated and driven from their
homes because they sought employ
ment or worked as cotton pickers.
Hundreds of cotton gins in various
sections of the state have been post
ed with warnings not to buy and gin
cotton, the v.iunin;; including de
struction of the plums ajid forfeit
ure of the lives of Ihe owners.
In one county eight men are now
awaiting action of ttie grand jury
on a charge of 'setting fire to a gin
nery, and in other sections of the
sta!te three white farmers have Just
been sentenced to a yeur'B Imprison
ment and assessed a heavy flue for
the Intimidation of negro cotton
pickers.

HAD QUEER MENTAL STREAK
Stories Told of Oliver Cromwell Would
Lead One to Doubt His, Com.
pleta Sanity. ' '-!
If Oliver Cromwell bad lived JrJ
these days a committee of alienists
doubtless would have Investigated hi
aanlty before now. For the Protector
had a most abnormal streak In hla
mental make-up. Fancy a man that
could sign the death warrant of a
king and then turn and spatter the
ink from bis pen Into the face of a
friend. ' In bla youth taverns were the
chief resort of Cromwell. His ru
and boisterous behavior early es
tranged him from bis equals and he
came to associate with a class beneath
him. For be" could brook no Interfer
ence or contradiction. The matter of
the score at the lnni where ba
caroused concerned him very little;
the bills frequently went unpaid and
be became extremely unpopular with
the alewlves of Huntingdon who, when
they saw blm coming, would lock the
doors to keep out the noisy bully. So
Oliver turned out to be a wild and dis
sipated youth. The same Incorrigible
spirit ran throuchout his life. It led
lilm to encourage his soldiers to play
practical Jokes upon each other, such
as putting hot coals In the other fel
low's boots. At the mnrrlnge of hla

or threw sack posset among the Indian
to soli their rich clothes, which they
took as a favor from him, strange as It
may aeem. And he put sticky candy
upon the chairs where his guests were
to sit. and pulled off his son-in-law's
peruke, pretended to throw It Into the
fire, and ended by sitting on It. Phil

OBJECT TO MENIAL DUTIES
Reason That la Assigned for the Pres
ent Scarcity of Trained Nurses
in Hospitals.
The full utility of many hospitals Is
now Impaired by a lack of uurses
writes "Glrard" lo the Philadelphia
Press.
Howard Butler, Jr Is trustee of an
Important hospital here and be tells
me they need SO per cent more nurses
than they can get.
"Why are nurses so scarce?"
asked.
"1 presume," answered Mr. Butcher,
whose business, as you know, is Unit
of a banker and broker, "It Is because
girls think they can.euru more money
In an easier wuy In some other occu
nation "
I have talked with doctors of wld
hospttul experience about It and they
say that the old practice of making
girls In training fur nurses do drud
gery for a year or so has prevented
ninny young women from entering the
profession. ,
"What good," said one great sur
geon, "did It do to a nurse's skill to
make her scrub floors or wash win
dows? As well make medical students
polish shoes, keep up the furnace fires
and sweep oat the lecture rooms."
Another physician of long expert.
ence and who Is connected with a big
hospital, added:
"The hospitals will be obliged to cut
out the manual labor for training
nurses and will probably reduce the
years of training, or the country will
go back to the conditions when It had
few or do trained nurses."

An old singer living In England, M,
L. Albanl Gye, recalls an Incident
which Indicates how heavily the late
Empress Sugenle bore her many sor
rows.
"Many years ago I used to take my
holiday on Deeslde," he writes the Dul
ly Telegraph, "and once at least every
season was called to Balmoral to slog
before Queen Victoria. On one of these
occasions the empress, who was on a
visit at the castle, came with the
queen to hear me. I believe that she
had not heard any mush,: since the
death of the emperor, and I had scarce
ly finished my first song when she
burst out crying. The qneen, on seeing
this, began to cry also, and I, too, from
sympathy, I presume, with the two
great ladles', could hardly restrain my
tears. I, however, very soon recovered
my composure and. was able to con

Oxford university Is, perhaps, the
Intellectual center of the earth, and
yet Oxford was so benighted that It
burned the books of John Milton, as
blasphemous. It was Oxford, also,
which declared during the Revolution
ary war, "that Americans as a peo
ple have forfeited their Uvea and their
fortunes In the Justice of a state."
Now look at the other side. In
that same war, the czar of Russia re
fused to sell 20,000 soldiers to King
Oeorge to tight against George Wash
ington. And we. here In the United Stales
constantly abuse the Turk, who kills
an Armenian now nnd then, and for
get how we killed the Indians for
three centuries. On one occasion, the
cealous Christiana of New England,
not far from Harvard, shut up 700
Peqiilnot In a modern prison and. ac
cording to John Flske. all hut five were
burned to denlh or murdered.
So I any Hint in Ihe next century

WHEN LIGHT DAWNED ON HIM
Young Man Understood Why the
. Maiden at First Shrank From
His Warm Embrace.
After the glory of the setting sun It
was dark. The mnn felt afraid as he
stumh"d on after his companion who.
woman-like, went straight ahead, re
gardless of all obstacles.
Angry murmurs from the unseen
people whose toes they trampled on
followed them like the wash of a
steamer. But she paid no heed: to
him fell the duty of muttering apolo
gies. Just as despair was seizing him he
saw her straight ahead. She had ob
tulned a sent. And investigation show
ed that the one next to hers was
empty. Into It he sank thankfully.
The picture was one of love and brav
ery, with the usual fair heroine and
handsome hero and beetle-browed vil
lain. As they watched he slipped an
arm around her slender waist and
drew her to him.
She struggled for moment, much
to his surprise. Then she yielded.
nnd he felt her nestle close to his
manly chest.
Five minutes later the picture end
ed, and the lights went up. Then he
understood he was embracing tha

Island of Bermuda Colonized Eight
Years Before the Mayflower.
Sailed From England.
The Island of Bermuda was discov
ered In 1515 by a Spaniard. Juan de
Bermudez. Nearly 100 years later an
English vessel with Virginia colonists
was shipwrecked on the Island, which
had been known as the Isle of Devils
because of the terrific storms on Its
coast, and had been shunned. Ad
miral Sir George Somers, leading the
Virginians, died. His body was taken
back to England, where the colonists
told the wonders of the Island. The
Virginia company" determined to colo
nize the Islands, and had Its charter
amended to Include Islands within 300
leagues of Virginia. As a result, 60
colonists were sent out In 1012, eight
years before the Mayflower sailed.
Later the Virginians sold their rights
to a Bermuda company, which so sub
verted the Inhabitants Hint they formed
a parliament and fought foe; their
rights. Three branches of govern
ment were devised. Itegulntlons were
most severe, and pennVtles were of the
moat Ttrefe nature.
