Slight wonder the cannon boom in Paris, in London

And yet upon sober contemplation there must be an
undercurrent of serious doubt and apprehension. For
after all the ceremony in Paris is only a ceremony. 1 One

COMMUNICATION.
Reactionary Explains Attitude
To tho Editor:
It is very likely that the Reaction
ary would not have asked for space
in vour - valued paper, tor many
moons, if a rather nasty and peevish
communication had not appeared in
vour publication of June 20th. Ordin
arily. I would have read this commu
nication, laughed at it. and forgotten
it the next moment if it had not con
threat. An insiuation that I was
threat. An insiuntion that I was
afraid to write over my bwn signa
ture, and a veiled threat that the
worshipers around here knew how to
"put the fixings" to anyone who
dared to exercise the right of free
speech in criticising their idol. The
Reactionary is not, and should not
be, an issue in any sense, locally or
otherwise. There are bigger and
more important things to discuss.
The controlling reason for signing my
communications. Reactionary, is that
have no desire to see my name in
the newspapers, and 1 have ulways
had an ingrained dislike for cheap
notoriety. There is ciuile n large num
ber of people in this world who seem
to have nil insatiable mania for see
ing iheir names "in print" and. while
no doubt manv of them arc might v
fine people, thev always appear a
bit ridiculous to me. For a thousand
yours, greater and holler men than 1
have been signing their litcritrv out
givings with a more or less appropri
ate nom dc plume nnd I imagine thcv
are going to continue to do so, en
tirely unconcerned nbout the peo
ple who like or dislike what thev hnvo
to sar. The article ; written bv me,
and which seemed to so greatly ex

friends who had entered into
potential enemies, who were
compulsion, and could not be
declarations, not the solemn
thoughtful world. And as in
feeble observation, let us ring
and shy the old shoes at the
cite the iro of this worshipper, an
peared in the Tribune of June the
10th.
In writing what I did I had three
objects in view. The first was to kid
the editor of the Tribune n little for
being fliint'lnmmcd nnd taken in bv
the Wilson brand of high ideals, which
onlv have worth, as a "magnificent
example of the attractiveness of
meaningless words." The editor
seemed to get the idea that
hud questioned his sincerity nnd be
enmc right back at me with a left
hunder that tarred my teeth, but he
enmc clcnn nnd fair, nnd I never ob
icct to hard knocks in a fair fight.
XCv second object whs to good-na
turedlv prod and jolly the worship
pers n little, manv of whom are my
personal friends. The third nnd con
trolling obicct was to express, in ns
few words as possible, niv condemna
tion nnd disapproval of Woodrow
Wilson and his doctrines, and niv
contempt for n character that
preaches one thing and constantly
practices another.
Now. the Reactionary is a free born
sovereign ' American citizen. He
knows his rights under the constitu
tion and he wns early taught to know
that the proudest boast in the world
was to be able to suv I am an
American citizen, sovereign, indc
dendent, tinpiirchasnblc and unnfraid
The founders of this republic well
knew what thev were doing when they
set torth the proposition, that nn
American lltizen was a sovereii
in his own right, nnd that tho men bo
elected to represent him nnd to exe
cute for him the processes of govern
ment were his public servants: not
rulers, or autocrats, or dictators, un
derstand, but his public servants,
nnd whenever I believe that any of
my public servants are iisurinng an
thority, or are grasping and grccdv
for power and place, or if I become
convinced that thev are making nn
attempt to barter nwav our Amcri
can birthright for a mess of interna
tionnl pottage, or-if it appears to me
that bv words, acts, or propaganda
thcv are attempting to undermine nnd
pull down our American institutions
nnd ideals and substitute therefor an
European state socialism, or Bolshe
vik internationalism. I propose to cx
crcisc the rights guaranteed to mc
under the constitution, ns a sovereign,
American citizen, to criticise them
whenever I plcnse. and I would like
to see the color of the man's hair who
will attempt to deny me that which
is not onlv mv right but my duty.
Now. in conclusion, this bird who
wrote the commiyiicition appearing
in the Tribune of the 20th don't want
to know mv name. lie iust thinks be
does. However. I imagine if he wili
go to the editor and show n valid and
legitimate reason why he should be
come better acouaintcd with me. it is
nn even chance the editor will ac
commodate him.
