HpATlHOTlJSM," said Samuel .Johnston, "is tho lust t rofugo of scoundrels." Some such thought must permeate the iniud of Rresi dent "Wilson as he listens to the alarm bells of special inter ests going off in congress against the repeal of Panama canal tolls. Old Glorv is dragged out of the closet to wave over the land of the free and the home of the brave. Its fluttering folds are wrapped about a multitude of sins it is not desir able should be seen. Brave statesmen nre hurling defiance tit Great Britain and reviving forgotten national animosities. Though we nre about to celebrate a centenary of peace, a dozen times a day the British lion gets a kink tied in his tail its bellig erent statesmen dare .John Bull to knock the chips front their manly shoulders. The yellow press is frenzied in its shrieking. War is wanted in the sacred name of American liberty war with Mexico preferred, war with Groat Britain if possible but war in any event, war for something or other American. "An American canal for American ships'' the same old cry we used to hear of "protection for American in dustries' for tho "benefit of the American workinginan." The people wore fleeced for half a century by the patriots who constantly waved Old Glory for the benefit of their own pocketbooks and appeals to patriotism nre now in order for the benefit of the shipping trust. Whenever a man parades his patriotism look out for some ulterior motive. The real patriot is seldom the man who shouts his love of country from the housetops. Most of the professional patriots are waving the flag because there is monev in it. Elbert Hubbard in the last number of the Philistine furnishes an illustration of this kept patriotism. This issue is an appeal to patriotism, in behalf of the trusts. A double-page colored illustration of Old Glory arouses sus picion. A quarter of n million issue, distributed gratis. eontirms it. The trust is extolled as American and the most perfect instrument of business efficiency the world has seen and the people nre implored not to interfere with these crowning "American" institutions. "William .Randolph Hearst is a striking instance of the patriot in journalism. His delectable papers 1 airly bristle with patriotism. The scandals of Americans receive almost as much attention ns the scandals of royalty. They de mand that the Hag follow Hem's t speculations in Mexico to coin from the blood of the American people additional millions for Hearst. They want free tolls for the Ameri can shipping trust and label Elihu Root, Andrew Carnegie, "William T. thwan and Woodrow "Wilson the Benedict Arn olds of the nation and Hearst, of course, the savior of the nation the last and greatest patriot. The president in upholding treat v agreements gives an example of the highest patriotism winch dares to defy the popular clamor of demagogues and repudiates a party platform to dojvhat he thinks right for the nation. " GUERNSEY WALKS F OM mm OIL MEN DENOUNCfc LAND LEASING BILL WASHINGTON, March 30. Hitter ilcuuncintiou of the proposed govern ment Innd leasing bill wa voieed to day before the houe land committee by Louis Titus of San Francisco. "The leasing bill proposes to lease land on which we nlready have well," he declnrcd. "The government takes tho position that wc nre mere tres passers and puts the property up to tho highest bidder. Tho government ought to give us something for the fortunes nnd the lives we have invest ed in developing this Innd. We can not fight the government, beenuie we nre facing bankruptcy now." LONDON, March 30 Foreign Minister Sir Kdward Gray denied In the houso of commons today th.it thero was any Anglo-American un derstanding back of President Wil ton's request for repeal for American coastwise shipping's exemption from Panama canal tolls. . "It has been stated," he said, "that under tho terms of such an understanding In land has agreed to support Presi dent Wilson's Mexican policy. There Is no foundation for theso reports."
