JTho Itogun fish bill seems to be a
vest pocket edition of tho League of
NatioliB, when It conies to perplexity.
So President Wilson told the Kuropean powers that he had a man
date from the American people for nl4ague of Nations; when as a matter
of fact there had been nothing reinctely resembling a plebiscite upon it,
and the only plebiscite of any kind i hat had been taken since his sugges
tion of a League of Nations had 1-ei n not for but strongly against his
political policies in general. Harvey's Weekly.
Hut tin? plebiscite was not upon "Wilson's political
policies, Colonel. Tlio plebiscite was upon whether a
political party won the war or whether America won it,
whether republicans were entitled to share in the honor
fit' victory and duty of reconstruction, or whether only
democrats were so entitled.
President Wilson lost because he appealed to parti
sanship at a time when the American people as a whole
had forgotten partisanship and had'no patience with it.
The president's pre-election pronouncement was probably
the greatest political blunder of his career, a blunder
from which the country has .suffered ever since.
Hut that does not alter ihe fact that when President
Wilson told tlui Kuropean powers that in dcniandin' a
League of Nations, lie expressed the sent intent of the
American people, the president told ihe absolute truth.
The American people did want a League of Nations, they
do want, it now. .More than that, when President' Wilson
raised diplomacy to a higher plane extolling world service
rather than world aggrandizement, human betterment
rather than human exploitation, he had the American
people-behind him, and in this realm, he has them behind
him now.
Whatever-spiritual reactions the country may suffer,
however formidable the forces of materialism and selfish
ne';s may appear, whatever defeats may be temporarily
suffered, the "new world policy" of President Wilson
is going to live, because it does represent the aspiration
and innate idealism of tho American people.
For admirable candor we commend the recent state
ment of Senator Norblad, one of the authors of the fish
commission bill recently rushed through the senate and
signed by the governor: "I represent SO per cent of the
commercial fishing interests of the state, a 12,000,000
industry."

THE war could not have been won without railroads.
Transport by rail and sea is an indispensable
arm of national defence.
parrying capacity, from the wheat fields and the
mines and tle steel mills to the front lines in France,
was the measure of our power in war.
And it is the measure of our power in peace.
Industrial expansion increasing national prosperity
greater world trade are vitally dependent on railroad
growth.
The limit to the productive power of this country is the
limit set by railroad 'capacity to haul the products of out
industry. The amount of freight carried on American rails tlouhled
from 1897 to 1905 since that year it has doubled ;.
It will double still again.
To haul this rapidly growing traffic the country must
have more railroads more cars and engines moro tracks
and terminals. 4
Sound national legislation, broad-vfcioned public regula
tion will encourage the expansion of railroads, without which
the nation cannot grow.

A Thrift Year
Uncle Hani is saying to all his nephews
and nieces "thrift, children, thrift," and
to that, end has established a National
Thrift Week, beginning .January 17, the
.-iiiniversarv of: the birth of lieiijaniin
Franklin. '
Put without the co-opera(ion of the banks
throughout the country Uncle Sam would
be almost helpless to spread the message.
'Any real program of saving must center
in the banks, just as the sales of Liberty
Ponds did.
The Jackson County Pank offers its ser
vices as an apostle of thrift, and an even
gelist of consistent saving, rather than
fast and furious spending. Saving is an
effective antidote to the extravagance
which has produced national unrest!
For Ihirty-lwo years this bank has en
couraged thrift in this community, and is
lending all its efforts to make 1D20 a real
Thrift Year for everybody.' Let's begin
in dead earnest on Jauuarv 17.
