Ye Smudge Pot
By Arthur Prry.
The Republican party is stewing in
? ita own cusnedncss, but It has yet to
s pose as "uniting with the church," to
s Bain palltlcal ends. The favorite
" hokum nowadays of 2x4 organizations,
is to blatantly announce "a reform
movement that aims for the spiritual
betterment of man." All good politic
ians have cloaks made of religion, and
I devoutly endeavor to turn prayer
, meetings into a caucus. To date, they
! are getting away with it.
I've been about a bit; I've girled;
And long and lustrous is my list.
Dut what is sadder In the world
Than thoughts of girls I might have
kissed?
Ah,' sadder than that memory
Of opportunities I've missed
Comes now the bitter thought to me
Of girls I wish I hadn't kissed.
(Vanity Fair)
Tn HIS IS educational week. Certainly the need for education was
never more apparent. But not among tlie young alone. Some
of our elder Btatesmen need education.
Last week in the United States senate a group of democrats car
ried on a successful filibuster against the administration's anti
Lynching bill.
The filibuster is a relic of the politieajrdai'k ages. It is the weapon
of a minority to defeat the will of a majority. The administration
had the votes to pass the Anti-Lynching bill. According to all the
rules of representative government, the bill should have passed.
But it did not pass. It will not pass at. the present session. By
tiiking advantage of the antiquated rules of the upper house, a small
jjroiip of southern die-hards, defeated the will of a majority of the
American people and protection of the American citizen, whose
skin is black, guaranteed by the constitution, was denied, thanks to
tlie unenlightened action of an aggressive minority.
Certainly, such action exposes the need of education not only
among tlie people of the south, but among their educated representa
tives. For the theory that the negro problem of the south ican only
Le solved by lawlessness, that the -negro oriminal can only be elimi
nated by sanctioning a public crime against tlie negro, has its roots
iu ignorance.
Slavery was put down not only because it degraded the slave but
because it degraded the slave owner. Slavery not only represented a
great moral wrong, 'but it represented ultimate economic disaster,
through the sMtening of tlie essential fighting fibre of the white.
So the tacit approval of Judge Lynch, is not only a crime against
the negro, it is a crime .against white civilization, it results as Theo
dore Roosevelt pointed out, in the degradation 'of both black and
white. 1
Education iiloue can reveal this fundamental truth. Education
alone can elevate public opinion to that desired level, where the feud
amentals of Christianity may be recognized as not only good morals,
but in the broadest aeeeptuncc of the term, good business, not only ex
cellent things to preach, but the best possible things to practice, in
short not only good polities, but the best statesmanship.
By all means let us have an Educational week. But let's not con
fine our efforts only to those of school age. Let us not forget some
of our college graduates who have gone through the motions of get
ting an education, but have failed so pitifully to absorb either its
lessons or its spirit. s

BEGGARS,
THE poor men come to my aliotle, and ask for bread and
chicken; they've dragged thrift forms along the road, and
they are sorely stricken, and 1 might hand them out an ode, their
sluggish blood lo quicken. But these are worn and weary men,
their stomachs all iu ereascsj when fed they'll take the road again
mid walk it till it ceases; and so I go and kill a hen and let them
eat the pieces. Some wise men say my course is wrong, they jeer
at what I'm doing; "You pauperize the errant, throng," they
cry, with much beshrewing j "let beggars work for they are
strong before you start them chewing." Hut I can't manufac
ture jobs, I can't invent a calling, for all (lie tired and hungry
swabs who come, for fodder bawling; and so I let them gnaw
the cobs I'm from the cornfield hauling. I might explain, when
they arrive, that charity's a flivver, that none's entitled to sur
vive unless he sweats n river; "So buckle down," I'd say, "and
strive to earn the eggs and liver." But uh, I hate to preach and
scold where hungry men are treading, to hand out maxims flat
and cold, in place of prunes and bedding; I have a rooster nine
years old that's ripe for the beheading. ,
