WITHOUT TIIK priiH'ipo.1 spenkev nt the .-Lincoln -iwiuiuot thai umual galhcving of oratorical1 vsolf-scckoi's, fetish followers and ancestor worshippers, who meet once a year to damn the living and glorify the dead, stated that the republican party h;d furnished three-quarters of the money and threc-quiU tei-s or war. ' i When trabid partisanship stills the voice of reason and stops the flow of wit. Argu menfris as futile ns the assertions are mendacious. Tho-war was financed, crats, but by the American people, every individual con ti'ibutiue his ouota. (The war was fought not by demo crats or republicans, but by dratt was no respeetor ot party. There is no question ot partisanship raised and there muic the partv allegiance oi ; It so happened that the war was fought and won under a democratic president this is the unforgivable crime of Voodrow Avilson. But tho fought under a republican such aftermath ot slander bv i: The world is moving a little too fast for ouv politicians, who with their eyes glued to tho past, forget that the old order has forever passed and that the world-wide problem of reconstruction and readjustment cannot be solved by partisan recrimination and has outgrown its provincial order demands the best efforts and co-operation of all th constructive abilities ot tho of party. - Only those without vision new day out ot the black night ot warand yet its dawn was nnporcejved by the Lincoln Day orators who re iterated the rallying cry, ot of t dav that is done. . -. OPPOSING THE LEAGUE. OPPOSITION to the. League of Nations, created at Paris, is due principally to partisan prejudice and ignorance. It is true that it was made an actuality thru President Wilson's efforts, but he is. not, and does not claim to be the author of the idea, or the writer of any part of the proposed constitution, though his insistence iorced the inclusion of certain points. It is in effect a. modifica tion of the ideals of the ''league to enforce peace" cham pioned for many years by former President raft as a so lution of international conflicts and preventative of war and Mr. Taft is big and broad enough to acclaim the suc cess of his successor and seek public approval for the league. - ' , ' ' : - -- ' ' There seems little doubt but tliat the statesmen of Europe, with the exception plated a peace ot the old order upon a quadruple balance of power, to make the Paris conference a second congress of Vienna with a redivision . of conquered .territory as spoils among the victors. But Wilson upset their plans. As William Allen .White; in a. Paris cablegram says: Nothing that President Wilson has said to those elder statesmen has convinced them that they were wrong, but what he -has said to the people- of Europe and the way the people of Europe have received wha( he has said, has convinced the elder statesmen, that if they do not give ' Europe a League of Nations revolution in Europe will follow tho war. The president merely has voiced the conviction of the world that it has outgrown war, and the voiced conviction of the world has convinced the rulers of Europe. .! 1 . The league has been vigorouslv fought bv the reaction aries and Chauvinists who sought an imperialistic peace'. All the reactionary influences abroad and in America will be concentrated in an effort to fair way to be consummated. or prejudice will bo overlooked American political party that mistake of its life, and those dent on a plattorm ot abuse and opposition will, not get very far in their rainbow chasing. -' Appreciates Gebree ' Andrews has' received- the followine letter, relative to the ap pearance here of Irvin Cobb: Dear Mr. Andrews: Allow me to coneratulute you on presenting Irvin Cobb. While I have been an ardent admirer of his stories, I; admit that at the lecture it was a most aerecable surprise to realize his versatility. For a man as eif ted with fain pen, it was indeed unusual to find him so finished oralorienlly. His diction was perfect, his similes brilliant', and his wit made ever more sparkling bv his tcllincr. Cobb's humor is noteonlv ef fervescent, but inimitable, nnd it was astonishing: I think, to find that in de picting scenes of pathos, he was equally touching and forceful.. ' , .' Another impression received at the lecture was the sympathetic and. ad mirable .manner of the audience, - I am referring to an incident which I nin confident nf fected us collectively. Yoii will recall, ilr. Cobb was. telling us of visitine a cemetery in a French town, and discovering that tho graves of our American bovs were daily coh ered with . exquisite blossoms and field flowers,- placed there with such loving tenderness by (he women of France-r-women who for the- most part were unable to even the, tend the names inscribed upon the ronghlv hewn marikng stones." Mr. Cobb hud prefaced his remarks by saying: "If there is a mother in the audience who has given 'n, Aon, sdie may receive bit of comfort I whuff urn- ubb'it to say." 'Wasn't it electritiving' rnd heart rending when a mother in auifiencc no longer nble to, stand t!.c strain'called out in sneli etet Ktrie;i en tones, ''Oh ! but it docs."

' - ' ' ' : The oplv mnrruij feature of the performance was the crv.ing of that infant through a big portion nf the lecture, and it no doubt occurred to some that the. mother of that child should have looked for the "Kxit" sign. However, an she did not, it siust have been some compensation to Mr. Cobb . to know,. that while the baby obviously did not like him, it was a "cinch" the mother did. ;i, : ; , Very sincerely, .
