I How does the new time strike you? . :o: Trotzky has about concluded it is all offsky. :o: The melencholy. cheer less, beer less days have come. :o: There are still hopes that the threatened labor difficulties may be settled. :o: While the senators air their presi dential booms the country is drift ing toward an industrial crisis. :o: England expects 1.000.000 tour ists next spring and the gain of $5,000,000 from the soft picking. :o: Whether General Pershing was at the front or not, he delivered the goods in handling the victorious army. :o: Well, when they are looking for a good man for the presidency they will make no mistake in centering upon Champ Clark of Missouri. :o: Bernstorff says Ludendorff was to blame for the war and Ludendorff lays the responsibility on to Beth-mann-IIollweg. Between them they about hit the truth, - :o: Senator Poindexter has shied his hat into the ring as candidate for president and has about as much chance to get it as the proverbial snowball in the warmer regions. f :o: . The state republicans are busily engaged in tearing down the politi cal fences of Governor McKelvie to prevent his re-nomination. No one seems to really know whether the governor wants another term or not. :o: The Eagle Beacon states "that Lincoln will have a new paper in the future. The need of an addi tional paper there can hardly be seen as the State Journal gives them one of the best papers in the state. :o: Whether the women of Nebraska vote or not at the coming election seems to be a rnr.tter of doubt. As they will have to be governed by the new constitution they certainly should have a voice in the making. :o: William R. Hearst is now at war with Governor Alfred Smith of New York over the handling of the gov ernor's office. Hearst and his de sire to force his doctrines upon the policy of the governor have caused the rupture. :o: It is announced that General Gonzales ha-s been appointed gover nor of one of the Mexican states and was a common laborer six years ago. This is news as we had thought the "Spicks' had given up labor for the revolution business as an easier way of getting the money. :o: The treaty of peace, ratified by England, France, Italy. Japan and Germany bringing a settled condi tion to these countries will he in force after October 30th. The sen ate has kept our country in a state of turmoil and the prospects are good that it will continue as from the attitude of the senate it will he necessary to open up new negotia tions with the German nation and the benefits of tho peace of Ver sailles lost to our country. SOUND IRISH SENTIMENT. The Evening Tribune takes pleas ure in republishing the following resolution adopted ,by Division No. 1 of the Ancient Order of Hibern ians in Davenport, because they tally so completely with its own no tion of how Irish self-determination is to be brought about: "Believing that the just demands of the Irish people for self-determ ination, independent government, until admitted by Europe, threat ens to disturb the peace and good understanding and friendly rela- tious between'the nations and peo ples of the world with or without a league of nations and believing that the league of nations, as pro posed in the covenant and treaty submitted by President Wilson to the United States senate, offers the best if not the only practical means pf compelling England to grant to Ireland the God-given rights of in dependence and freedom: Therefore be it "Resolved. That we favor the league of nations as the greatest forward step for world peace, its adoption the greatest self-serving contribution of the United States to the human race for the relief of oppressed people everywhere, and the best hope for the freedom and independence of Ireland. We re spectfully ask our senators to aid in its speedy ratification." It is so plain, if the world is to go ahead in the old way. that the smaller peoples will more than ever be under the shadow or under the wing of their more powerful neigh bors, that everybody ought to see it without argument. For their more powerful neighbors are going to be watchful of every element of weak ness as never before. Not to go away from home for illustration, the United States is going to be much more watchful of its immediate neighbors if we go ahead in the old jealousies and old rivalries. The only hope of the smaller peo ples is in an ordered world, where eevrybody is sworn to keep the peace and to help enforce the law. The beginning of dawn will be for them just when the world is banded together in some effective way to protect rights of life and property and to secure liberty the world over. The Evening Tribune would con gratulate the Davenport Hibernians on seeing so clearly just where Ire land's future lies. Every American of Irish decent and every American of Irish sympathies should be for the league of nations with all the might that is in him. Davenport Tribune. :o: IS THE NATIONAL INCOME ENOUGH? While the government is investi gating the steel strike, and planning a general conference of employers and employes, it might well assign a commission of competent investi gators to ascertain the probable in come of the people of the United States for one year. The reason for such an inquiry is this: There seems to be a prevalent impression that there is enough wealth produced in the United States every year to give every fam ily a large income, if only it were more fairly distributed. As against this impression is the opinion of a large number of economists that-we must reduce more if we are all to be better off. The question is. is our big prob lem nnft of distribution or one of production? The most careful work no far done on thh subject is probably a volume on "Wealth and Income of ' the Peo ple of the United States, by Prof. W. L. King of the University of Wisconsin. The book was before the war and it had written to use fragmentary statistics that were available. It was the author's con clusion that if all rent, interest and profits were added to wages, the in crease in wages would be about 25 per cent. . Of course such a procedure, aside from its moral aspects, would strangle industry. There would be no incentive to save or to organize a business or to extend existing in dustrial operations. But the point is, if Professor King is correct, the amount of the present product is far from sufficient to meet demands for a general moderate increase in income. Increased production is the big thing needed before there can be in creased well being for the whole people. With the information from the income tax now available, it ought to be possible for a commission of competent men to make an authori tative report on this subject. If Prof. King's conclusions are justineu it is important that the fact sliouiu be known throughout the country. Kansas City Star. -:o: 'KANST DU CRAPS SCHUTZEN?" "Not all of the war was horror and bitterness," writes v General Pershing, "and the spirit our boys showed reminded me very much of the standard set in our sports at home. If the enemy had met us on the same sportsmanlike basis, his tory would record a different story of the conflict. An incident related hv nni nf mv staff illustrates the Yankee spirit. The doughboy had captured a German and on the way to camp discovered that the -prisoner had a huge roll of French money. Immediately he conjured up visions or the delectable cafes of Paris and what he could do with that bank roll, but he could not bring himself to the point where he would actual ly take the roll. Instead he pand ered for a moment, and then, bring ing the captive to attention, faced him, saluted, and asked: "Kamerad. kanst du craps schutzen?" Boston Herald. -:o: TWO FARMS FOR RENT.
