Woman
Civilization rests on her. She
reaches out to spiritual and intellec
tual attainments and keeps alive the
music, the art, the letters, the cul
ture, the religion of the white race.
Is it too much to say there would be
no schools; no churches, no social cul
ture clubs without her? Probably not.
Seventy-five per cent of the worship
ers at the churches are women, and
priest and pastor knows that his work
is secure because of her. She com
prises eighty per cent of the teachers
in the schools and will sacrifice and
plan for the education of the children :
even though her mate is indifferent
or hostile.
In jungleland she is excluded from
everything that would raise her above
the standing of. a slave. That ex
plains the fact of jungleland.
Woman's rights, the styles of
dresses, the cigarette, the hip flask,
have done their baleful work to the
charm, the grace, the beauty and
bloom of our mothers and sisters and
daughters, but American womanhood,
the world's womanhood, is still the
balance wheel that holds us from the
brink of barbarism.
An omniuous cloud has arisen on
the far eastern horizon that reminds
us of the alarming days preceding
Verdon. Japan, small but mighty—
a little people but crafty, capable and
everyone of them a statesman and a
military genius—has huge China,
crude and awkard, by the throat.
What is to come of it no one can pre
dict, but anything may happen. Jap
an has cherished the dream of one
day dominating Asia. Is this the
starting point of the fulfillment of
that dream? Another dream lingers
in the minds of all Asiatics—a dream
of supremecy over the white races.
With Asia under the leadership of
Japan, the yellow peril might become
more than a dream.
The League of Nations seems to be
at loss to know what to do about the
Chino-Japunesu fray. Japan seems to
care little for suggestions from the
League. We can’t see it any other
way than making a bad matter worse.
If all athe nations feel that they must
get into the quarrel too, we can doj
nothing else thun have another war.
If Japan does not cease hostilities,
the only thing the league can do is
to jump into the confiet and make
a grand fight of it. We can’t re
member anyone that ever got into
trouble by minding his own business.
The largest newspaper transfer in
Nebraska for some time pnst is that \
of the Norfolk Press, which has just1
been taken over by I. N. and V. J.
Tompkins of Minnesota. Mrs. Weeks,
the retiring editor and publisher, gave
to the Press an individuality, a per
sonality, that attracted state wide at
tention. The first issue of the Press
under the new management indicates
that the standard is to be maintained.
Senator Norris is paid to be pre
pared to introduce a 3 billion dollar
fereral road program at the forth
coming session of congress, with the
view of putting the idle to work build
ing roads. That would mean about
60 million to each state. A great
people in a great country ought to
be able to adjust themselves so every
body has a job. When Norris starts
something others take notice.
State politics are stirring a bit
Two democrats declare themselves for
governor. One republican that has
come to our attention starts his cam
paign for governor with a somewhat
frank statement of his attitude on
public questions and a brief but com
prehensive personal history. This is
Frank Myers of Omaha who has filed
as a candidate for the republican nom
ination for governor.
The public feels secure in its right
to cherish *he memory of the great
inventor in spite of the unpleasant
discussion which has arisen of Edison
family affairs.
The main thing about business de
pression that we do not understand
is, why should the president of the
United States be blamed for it?
Prices materially advance after the
wheat crop has passed from the pos
; session of the producer to the spec
