PRACTICAL IDEALISM
"there is another lessen which 1
think our experience should teach
us and which must exercise a pro
found effect upon cur whola outlook
into the future. We need a renais
sance of idealism. Some people have
a false impression of the significance
cf idealism. They think cf it as a
philosophy separated far from the
practical everyday life of affairs.
They would go farther perhaps and
insist that the man who has an ideal
istic philosophy of life unfits himself
to live satisfactorily in the world as
it is. Now for me idealism means
that there are values which cannot
be expressed in material terms. In
the time of prosperity value3 are like-
ly to he expressed solely in material
terms. In the years of plenty we
loo sight of the fact that there are
other values so far beyond the sphere
cf getting and spending as to be
catily overlooked or, if hastily recog
nized, at once forgotten.
When we como in tho quiet and
sober moments of these ycaro of de
pression to aik ourselves what are,
after all, the highest values high
est in tho sense that they can never
be sacrificed for any other we come
to thz calm judgment that there do
exist values cf th'u higher order,
which reveal to us sources cf su
preme satisfaction within tho depths
of our spirit and which are not medi
ated through tho senses, or by the
things we possess, but by those
thoughts and feelings which trans
cend this external world wherein we
seem to live and move and have cur
whelo being. I have i:i mind those
deeply imbedded thoughts and emo
tions which, cannot ho counted or
measured cr weighed by any ma
terial units of description cr com
putation auch as tho illimitabi3
mass cf cur affections, within cur
own family groups or the circlo of
cur friends, cr in that Etill larger
iphero which commands our interests
and solicitude for the welfare of hu
manity in general; cr cur instinctive
appreciation of the order and beauty
of the world in which we. live, cur
sens of Justice and fair play, of
duty, honor, the dictates of con
science and the integrity of char
acter. "These are the things that
men iive by." It is only through an
idealism of such a nature that we
can penetrate to the core of reality.
Otherwise we iive on the surface of
existence and never aound its depths.

LET'S C03IE OUT OF
THAT ST0EH CELLAR
Hey, all you timid souls down
there is the storm cellar!
Come out of your " 'fraid hole!"
The storm is -over! Come out and
sec the pretty rainbow!
The bank3 are reopening! Your
money is safe! The banks are sound
and your old Uncle Sam i3 going to
see them. through! .... .., . ... ..
Common reason ta3 been en
throned at Washington! The crisis
has been met with intelligence and
courage! The worst that could pos
sibly have happened has already oc
curred! Let's forget it now! Let's get down
to work, loosen up, go on about our
business and get things going again!
All of cur best assets are intact
land, homes, buildings, railroads,
highways, schools, churches and most
of our securities are good!
We have everything we ever had
to work with and for!
We have been seeing ghosts for
three years and wolves in sheep's
clothing have been dogging our
flanks! Now they havo been dis
persed! This country today is as sound as
a nut and it always was. We just
had to have a little reassurance on
that point, though, and now we have
had it!
Ey putting the bank3 on a sound
basis, President Roosevelt has laid
the foundation for new confidence
and a new superstructure of busi
ness! Anybody can sec that!
Let's cas,t aside cur timid fears.
Lct'.s start building, planting, ex
panding j-i3t as if nothing had hap
pened! Thero are so many things
that need to be done, so much work
awaiting idle hands!
Prices aro coming back they
simply have to come back! They are
coming back because tho basis has
beer, established for new credits and
expanding demands that will create
work and increase consumption.
Overhead expenses havo been re
duced in every line of enterprise.
Taxes are coming down. Waste is
being eliminated. Productive and
consumptive capacity are coming into
balance once more!
It behooves everybody now to ap
ply the same God-given sense of rea
son to his own affairs that Roosevelt
i3 applying to national affairs! His
couraga and common senso should
afford an inspiration to every indi
vidual! Confidence is the keystone in the
foundation of our civilization con
fidence in our government, in its in
stitutions and in our selves!
Things are not going to pot! Let's
get a new grip on ourselves and set
to owrk to make this country what
the Lord intended we should make
it!
The stage i3 set! America is go
ing forward with Roosevelt!
Come out of that ctorm cellar,
timid ecu!, and joint tho precession!
Let'3 go! Sicux City Tribune.
QUAKES AND SCHOOL EUILDING3
Great as tho loss of life in the
California earthquake was, it would
have been appallingly greater if the
public schools had been in session.
Fortunately the disaster came at an
hour when the children were in
their home3 or on the streets. Lit
tle has been said of this aspect of
the calamity, hut the people of the
stricken area are so grateful because
of it that they are taking their losses,
and in some instances their bereave
ments, philosophically.
Of all the schools in the most af
fected area, only seven are in condi
tion to permit repairing; the others
were reduced to heaps of brick, mor
tar and twisted steel. Even in those
there would havo been many deaths
ar.d injuries if pupils had been in
them. As for those totally destroyed,
the conclusion must be that more
would havo been killed than would
have escaped if they had been occu
pied.
It is amazing that In a region sub
ject to earthquakes, greater precau
tions were not taken in the con
struction of school buildings. It has
been demonstrated in Japan that it
is possible to construct buildings in
such a way as to have them with
stand the most violent shocks. Cer
tainly such construction should be
employed in school buildings, at
least. Tho additional cost is neg
ligible compared with the liability,
human and property, that i3 incur
red by following conventional con
struction. Of course, the demand for safe
construction of school buildings is
not confined to earthquake arcasL
Cities and regions immune from such
convulsions are subject to tornadoes
ar.d hurricanes which may be even
more destructive, though more limit
ed in their ravages. The greatest
less of life Kansas City has had from
storm was that incident to the de
struction, in part, of the Lathrop
school i:i the hurricane of May 11,
IS 86. The building vas of the old
type, and the tragedy carried an ad
monition observed in all later school
construction. Kansas City Times.

BILL TO DRIVE TRADE
AWAY FE0II NEEHASEA
Once again a Nebraska legislature
Is confronted with. a. bill providing
for placing an excise tax upon cig
arets. It should.be entitled: ,."A bill
to transfer the sale ot cigarets from
Nebraska merchants to those of oth
er states." For it is a fact so plain
that it could escape the attention cf
none, that if the price of cigarets is
raised in this state, consumers will
havo them sent by parcel post by
dealers located in other common
wealths. As a matter of fact there is noth
ing in the world contributing more
heavily to the cost cf government
than cigarets, which are taxed from
the tobacco field to the ash, and for
state governments to project them
selves into this domain i3 little short
of unthinkable. We are getting ail
mixed up on this taxation business,
and the sooner we straighten our
selves out, the better it will be for
tho people and for all taxing agen
cies. It is not the tobacco companies
wo are taxing; it is the people, for
the tax falls on the public.
The federal government did wrong
in placing a tax on gasoline, and
this will doubtless be rectified with
in the coming year. The tax on this
commodity was originally levied by
the state of Oregon for road purposes,
and so successful and popular did it
immediately become that within 14
year3 it had been adopted by every
state in the union, and whereas Ore
gon had levied but 1 cent a gallon,
two cf tho states are now collecting
as much as 7 cents. This was dis
tinctly a state tax for a specific pur
pose, and for the federal government
to invade the came field was wrong
in every respect.
Likewise, the taxing of tobacco
products and liquors ha.3 always been
a federal function, and it ha3 been
exercised to the limit. Nothing now
pays a higher tax than cigarets, un
less it be gasoline, and the taxing
should be left entirely in federal
hands, just r.s the gas tax should be
left to tho states. Cut aside from
this consideration, should be the mat
ter of protection to Nebraska mer
chants, who pay property taxes and
salaries in the state, and who are
entitled to the business of the people
cf Nebraska.
A state 13 never Justified in levy
ing a special sales tax, except in
such case as that upon motor fuel,
the revenue to be used for road pur
poses; and very convincing argu
ment can bo made against the fed
eral government making any such
levy. In order to be Just, such a tax
should be very low and should be
applied to everything, with the pos
sible exception of food. If a busi
ness is legitimate it has a right to
live. Lincoln Star.
MOVING TO ATTACK
OIT THE FARM FEON:
President Roosevelt moves so rap
idly in hia attack on inherited na
tional problems that the cheering
public can hardly keep up with him.
One day it is hank reform, the next
day it is more revenue through le
galizing light beer and today it is
farm relief.
Almost every one understands the
EigniScance of the bank and beer
moves, but probably seme city dwell
ers will wonder why all the haste
for the farmers after all, tho farm
ers are a minority of the population
and the rest of the country is in a
pretty bad way.
Fortunately ,the president does
not take that attitude. He knows,
as every one who has studied the
problem knows, that there will be
no prosperity for the cities until na
tional purchasing power is restored
and that ma33 purchasing power de
pends upon the farmer having money
to spend.
So the president proposes to help
the entire country by first helping
tho long-suffering farmer,
rhat isi
good economics. Business men get
the point, as witness the efforts cf
the United States Chamber of Com
merce during the last few months in
behalf of farm relief.
There are remarkable things about
the Roosevelt farm program besides
speed, though speed is essential to
help the 1533 crops. In addition to
speed tho president brings to this
problem long study, the aid of ex
perts and a broad scientific attitude
The president attacks the prob
lem along three broad fronts.the un
bearble mortgage burden, the destruc
tion of foreign markets by trade bar
riers and world depression, and the
overproduction or underconsump
tion of farm products.
The campaign on the mortgage
front is in preparation. On the for
eign front a special ambassador, Nor
man K. Davis, is being sent abroad
to negotiate with other governments
regarding control of production, trade
barriers and the world economic con
ference. The immediate bill is the attack
on the third front to limit domestic
production by leasing and taking out
of production excessive acreage and
to raise the needed funds and in
crease prices to a pre-war parity with
industry by a tax on processors, such
as millers and others. The bill com
bines parts, cf, the older, domestic al
lotment, leasing and cotton option
contract plans. We do not know that
this will work.
More significant than the details
of tho pian which may or may not
work is the president's scientific
and experimental attitude'toward it.
Instead of presenting it in the con
ventional cure-all manner, Mr. Rocse
velt in his special message to con
gress says:
"I tell you frankly that it is a
new and untrod path, but I will tell
you with equaT frankness that an
unprecedented condition calla for the
trial of a new means to rescue agri
culture. If a fair administrative
trial of it is made and it does not
produce the hoped for results, I shall
he the fisrt to acknowledge it and
advise you."
This i3 an excellent approach to
almost any problem of government.

MONTANA'S BAD PRECEDENT
'Governor John E. Erickson cf Mon
tana is to succeed the distinguished
Thomas J. Walsh in the United
States senate. The circumstances cf
hi3 appointment are that he resign
ed as governor, and the lieutenant
governor'3 first act was Erickson's
appointment to the senate.
Montana has set a precedent that
is not desirable, nor is it a healthy
one for American politics. Such a
coup has often been considered, and
tho country has frequently been
threatened with it, but this seems to
be the first time that a governor and
a lieutenant governor ever had the
nerve to go through with it.
Since the ice has been broken, we
may new expect to see frequent ap
plications of it. Memphis Commer

WHAT WARE DECLARES
EVERY TOWN FEELS
Ware, in Calvin Ccclidge's county
of Hampshire in Massachusetts, had
a town meeting the other night. The
hall was crammed. The majority of
the citizens were bound to cut ap
propriations for everything except
relief work. They got what they
wanted.' After the meeting Tom
Prendergast said: "They cut every
thing but the old pine tree." The ap
propriations committee recommena
ed a cut cf 13 per cent in all wages
and salaries. The meeting voted a 5
per cent in addition except in re
gard to wages. Cheered by this good
beginning the friend3 of economy
forced reduction upon reduction all
along the line. Even the schools and
the llhrary had to take their medi
cine. Tho superintendent cf schools
wasted his eloquence and poetry.
This time the Ware folks meant busi
ness. They wound up a good night's
work with a set cf resolutions that
have an eightenth century ring. Af
ter reciting the privations of the
townsmen, "heavily oppressed with
taxes in multiplied form." the rceo
lutions celled the rpcv.ir.l

E00SEVELT FINDS IT
EASY TO BE SIMPLE
Ey the great and unquestioned
success which ilr. Roosevelt has had
in his first approaches to congress,
and in winning public confidence to
:-o large a degree, politicians of the
oi l sthool are puzzled. Washington
diatches represent them az rubbing
their eyes and scratching their heads
as they observe the new president
at work. They dovnot deny his ef
fectiveness, but consider his methods
net to bs "professional." This re
calls the Austrian generals who com
plainc I that Napoleon had defeatcu
them in violation of established mili
tary ruiej. To speak of Franklin
Rooccvelt as an "amateur" in poli
tics is merely silly. In many ways
and under different tests he has
shown himself to bo a consummate
politician. IIi3 planning and win
ning the democratic nomination for
the presidency did not betray the
hand of a bungler. It now appears
that hl.i frequent reference during
the presidential election to the need
of leadership wa3 no idle use cf
words. His assertion of executive au
thority since March 4, together with
the energetic rapidity with which he
set himself to overcome one diffi
culty after another, was plainly the
result of long study and prepar
ation. If there ha3 been any political art
about it ail, it i3 the kind of art
which ccnccals art. As president.
Mr. Roosevelt has gone after uie
tilings needful with the utmost
frankn?s3 and directness. Without
any peso or beating cf drums, he has
announced his plans and quietly
taken it for granted that congress
and the country would give him
cheerful co-opcraticn. He had, to be
sure, the great advantage of appear
ing undismayed when the wails were
fallirg about him, and giving calm
?.nd collected orders when nearly
every one else was hesitant or fright
ened. That partly explains why the
nation has risen to hi3 leadership
with such acclaim. Like the oars
men of the Latin poet, he has been
strong because he has appeared to be
strong.
This is what baffles the old prac
titioners in politics. They stand
abcut much in the attitude of a
vicux sabreur wondering how the
untrained fencer can display such
skill. But this, after all, only ar
&U2S that it is Etill true, as Edmund
Burke said it was in his day, that
politicians do not know their own
trade. Mr. Roosevelt has been show
ing them aspects of it which never
before fell under their eyes. "The
great thing." wrote Pascal, "is to b
simple." "But," he added, "it is so
bard to be simple." Thus far in his
icaficrrhip President Roosevelt has
fortunately found it not too hard
for him. New York Times.
