Robert Lansing still retains the faculty of
using the English language so as to set out
plainly what the United States expects of for

of state.
The Ellis Island Soviet
- Few men seek a happy home on Ellis Island.
It is a port of passage. But the soviet estab
lished there through the kindness of Uncle Sam
has the fairest of fields for pleasurable exist
ence.
Anarchy is irresponsible; and who so irre
sponsible as these Soviets? Food is brought
to them; they can eat or "demonstrate" by a
hunger strike, as caprice decides. Friends may
visit them and try to poke revolvers and bottles
through the netting that furnishes a grievance
against society. And what an opportunity for
"work!" Outside, wild talk is handicapped.. On
the island, one can cry "Down witn the govern
ment!" to hia heart's content, neither doing nor
suffering harm; the government does not down.
He can offer to cut the heart out of a visiting
statesman without being pressed for results;
detention is his alibi. If beset by ennui it is
correct to swim ashore.
; Russian reds were once called nihilists; these
are nihilists as to names. How is a deporting
official to know whether a red is an American
citizen and immune, or what his record is, or
where he comes from, if he will not answer to
his name? Even if the case for deportation is
clear. Serge or Gregor should worry! Russia is
blockaded and Washington has yet to find a
feasible dumping ground for Bolshevia. .
- A perfect, flawless system J Unless congress
does something and it never does or officials
think of omething and they never do--why
should the Elba Island soviet be perpetually
endowed with a congenial membership, a classy
-club, a house committee to swear at and a long
waiting list? New York World-
MORAL ASPECT OF THE STRIKE.
Omaha people are submitting with com
mendable patience to the rigid exactions of the
fuel administration. The gentlemen who are in
charge have acted with what they believe is due
regard for public interests and safety, and the
uncomplaining assent given by the public is in
dicative of an excellent community spirit It
is unfortunate that Omaha should be in perhaps
the worst predicament of any of the larger
cities, but we know that proportionately all are
suffering in a similar way and for the same
reason. j -
This hardship, has been brought on the na
tion by a peculiar process of reasoning on part
of men who are looking at ajl the world
through spectacles of their own devising. It
is singular, indeed, that men who profess to
be opposed to physical warfare, and) who a few
years ago had a notion of making war impossi
ble by refusing to dig coal to be used in mili
tary or naval operations, should so cheerfully
engage in an economic war of such extent and
so filled with potential and actual destruction
as that now being carried on. Innocent people
are suffering, women and children are threat
ened with cold and starvation, miners' wives
and babies sharing alike with those of other
workmen who are idle because of fuel shortage.
Horrors of the war are duplicated; perhaps
not in the dreadful cariiage'of a battle field, but
none the less poignant and personal in the
silent misery of homes where larder and coal
bin alike are empty. A man stabbed to death
in a charge is no more a loss to the world than
a babe frozen or starved because of an ob
stinate, senseless strike. , '
1 A conflict whose basis is immoral can not
bring permanent success to any. In this case
two obstinate, willful sets of men, each, acting
from selfish motives, have precipitated a dread
ful condition of an'otherwise prosperous coun
try, and both of these should be made in some
way to pay for the disaster they are responsible
for.
A U Per Cent "Insult"
Michigan Election Muddle.
After due allowances are made for the par
tisan political aspect of the Michigan election
muddle, justice requires that the matter be thor
oughly ventilated. So far the proceedings have
not had the surface appearance of fairness.
When the voters of Michigan declined to accept
Henry Ford as a United States senator, even re
jecting the very earnest recommendation of the
president that the great manufacturer be
elected the democrats started the howl of
fraud, bribery, corruption and generally kicked
up a big cloud of dust The case was taken up
in a senate committee, controlled by democrats,
but was finally dropped and the seat awarded
to Trumann H. Newberry, whose greatest of
fense is that, he happens to be a republican.
The Department of Justice took up the trail, and
now blazons forth to the world the announce
ment of a dragnet indictment, in which 135 citi
zens of Michigan are accused of corrupting the
votera of the state.
With this to start on, the campaign of 1920
Is fairly under way for the administration,
which hopes to prop up its tottering fortunes
by a general accusation of crookedness against
the republicans. So far as the republican party
is concerned, it has stood forever for a fair bal
lot and a free count From Tammany arid
Boston in the north to the "pocket boroughs"
of the south, its effort has continually been to
secure for the honest yoter unrestricted oppor
tunity to make hit choice at the polls.
A seat in the senate is of immense valve to
the president and his party just now. It would
give the White House full control of legislation,
and permit a resumption of the dictatorial prac
tice built up since 1913. To the republicans
more than that is at stake. The fundamentals
of the party's life are involved. Nothing should
be omitted or neglected that will bring out the
truth in connection with the Michigan case.
i Put Up or Shut Up for Mexico.
The latest from Washington to the Car
ranza government is more nearly a genuine
ultimatum than any of the long series that pre
ceded it. It is couched in plain terms, and
flatly tells the Mexicans that the next move is
theiri. The United States declines to be en
meshed in a web of words over a matter aa
vital as the imprisonment of an American citi
tenT who also happens to be a representative
of its State department. He must be liberated,
or a real reason given for holding him. This is
yet a long way from a declaration of war or
an intimation of armed intervention, but if Car
ranza insists on holding Consul Jenkins pris-,
oner, the situation will become immediately
serious. . Americans have shown wonderful for
bearance towards Mexico for nearly a decade,
trying to allow the inhabitants of that coun
try to adjust their own affairs. Because of the
inability of Mexicans to set up and maintain a
stable, responsible government, some hundreds
of Americans have been murdered, millions of
dollars in property has been- looted orj de
stroyed, and unspeakable outrages endured by
our citizens. And the end of the reckoning is
nearly at hand. If Mexicans can not govern
themselves, we may be forced to shovy them
how it is done.
' What About the Homelest?
Somebody may gain fleeting fame by de
vising a plan to take care of the hornless men
and women while every form of amusement is
shut down. We have some thousands of these
in Omaha, who . are domiciled at rooming
houses or hotels, eat at 'restaurants, and spend
a considerable part of their leisure time at the
theaters or similar places. With working hours
-shortened, these find heir leisure time in
creased, and with all places where they might
comfortable spend part of it shut down, they
are in an unpleasant predicament. It may be
that they will find some sort of relief in loafing
around their lodgings, getting acquainted with
one another, employing the time as best they
may in various ways. But the dislocation of
their routine of life is more serious than will
be that of the workers who have homes to go
toi Nobody seems to have thought of them
.when the regulations were made, but they are
entitled to some consideration.
Secretary Baker's experience in the war of
fice has taught him something. He professes to
believe that American institutions have no
cause to fear anything fom an American army.
This is considerable progress from the pacifist
attitude he held four years ago.
Senator Lodge says the treaty may be rati
fied, but only with reservations. That has been
clear to everybody outside the White Huose for
several months.
' From the New York World.
The leaders of the coal miners in the con
ferences at Washington have seriously blun
dered. Having started out with a demand of
60 per cent increase in wages and having for a
time confidently expected to get an increase of
at least 31 per cent, they naturally feel and ex
press keen disappointment at the government's
14 per cent conclusion. But in their refusing
conference and arbitration on other matters at
issue, and even on this matter of wage rates as
a oermanent rranirement 1 thev have simply
I put their cause beyond defense at the, bar of
puDiic opinion.
Mr. Garfield dealt with only one phase of
the controversy. His decision, in effect was j
that the industry can stand an increase of 14 ;
per cent in wages without raising prices to the
consumer, and that this 14 per cent will offset
the increased cost of living to the miners.
The fuel administrator did not attempt to
discuss the question of hours, working condi
tions and regularity of employment, none of
which can be ignored in a final settlement. He
was concerned only in adjusting wage demands
to the present selling price of coal.
Whether Mr. Carfield is right or wrong in
his conclusions we do not know, nor can any
body know without a thorough analysis of the
statistics on which his decision is based. It Is
worth while, however, as a sign of the times,
to call attention to the contemptuous manner
in which his report was received by the repre
sentatives of the miners, many of whom treated
the 14 per cent increase in wages as an "insult"
and as too contemptible to be taken seriously.
Yet a '14 per cent jncrease in wages,
whether it is adequate or not, is a substantial
advance, and it is only in this new era of
profiteering that either labor 6r capital has
come to regard an advance of )4 per cent as
infinitesimal. , 1
The whole crux of this contraversy is
whether the piiblic is to be saddled with an in
crease in wages that tbe industry itself cannot
pay at the present prices of coal. It gets back
again to the process of pyramiding which has j
been the basis of settlement in labor disputes
for the last ' three years. When labor has re-
reiveA mnrc ihr rmnlnver ha naSRCfl the in
crease along to the consumer andthe consumer
has had to make the best or it. ihe result has
been a steady advance in prices accompanied
by all the evils of a speculative market with few
elements of stability. )
That method cannot be continued , in
definitely and there are already signs that a
crisis is approaching.
The coal operators undoubtedly hogged
everything they could while the hoggingwas
good, and now the miners demand their chance
at the trough; but the time is coming when
wages will have to be adjusted with some re
gard to production, and selling prices cannot be
maintained indefinitely at artificial levels
through agreements between employers and J
employes' to divide the swag. Otherwise the
whole industrial structure will come crashing
down.
It cannot be said that either the operators or
the miners have conducted themselves in this
controversy in a way to command public con
fidence. Both of them have played fast and
loose with the general welfare, and if the gov
ernment is getting nowhere in its attempt to
effect a settlement it is because the govern
ment is dealing with men and interests who
have no honest desire to see it get anywhere.
The miners, however, through a leadership
with greater capacity for blundering, have now
put themselves clearly in the wrong and on
the defensive. In contemptuously kicking over
a merely tentative arrangement they con
temptuously deal with the public interest and
consider public opinion. -The strike accord
ingly will have to be fought out on the line of
fighting chosen by the miners. They can cause
greater inconvenience and suffering to the coun
try than could the steel strikers. Nevertheless,
the steel strikers lost in defying public opinion,
and by the same token the soft coal miners
will lose.

Opposed to the Lc-ajrue.
North Platte.. Neb., Nov. 28. To
the Kditor or The Bee: With your
kind permission I wish to state a
few facts and make a few friendly
suggestions which I think la not
amiss at the present time. I dis
tinctly remember reading- In the
press about two months agd that
there were none opposed to the
adoption of the so-called league of
naltons, only those who did not un
derstand , the English language or
could not read. -That is about the
substance as I now rememberand
it was spoken by a person who
should be an undoubted authority.
Then, again, about four or .five
weeks ago, came the statement by
a man on the floor of the senate
that only those who were anarchists,
socialists, I. V. W.'s or bolshevlsts,
were opposed to the adoption of the
league as Bet forth by our honorable
president, and now we see strong
indications that there will be a
great effort made to punish all those
turbulent fellows under the fore
going' headlong, whoj seem deter
mined to follow thevexample of our
rebel forefathers who sought Jus
tice from English rule and thought
the most effective way wai to throw
the tea overboard in Boston harbor
and for such an act our dearly be
loved English masters would either
shoot or hang the bolshevik rebels.
To my mind the present is ac
tually serious ae If the first state
ment that the opponents of the
league don't understand the Eng
llslr language Is correct, and the sec
ond accusation that because of their
antagonism to the league they are
anarchists or socialists or bolshevlsts
or I. W. W.'s, these conditions clearly
place them in the Incompetent and
criminal class, worthy of no constd
eration under our present democratic
laws; and as there Is now a move on
toot to exthinguish such characters,
I beg leave to move that each and
all of the daring senators who, be-j
cause of their disobedience of com
mands in voting for and declaring
the American people capable of con
ducting their own affairs contrary
to directions, and dared to dot their
I's and cross their T's, they are
hereby condemned and sentenced to
deportation amongst the European
diplomats representing the big four,
there to hobnob for from six to 12
months, and should they in that time
repent of their error and bring back
satisfactory proof as to their sin
cere sorrow and solemnly declare
they are now prepared to acknowl
edge that the American people can
be best governed from abroad and
that they themselves did not then
understand the English language,
they be restored to citizenship with
the reservation that if ever again
a like crime be committed by them,
they will be disfranchised for all
time. WILLIAM LYMAN.

Dealing JVith Mexico
The attitude of chronic hostility to the
United States maintained by President Car
ranza has often carried him to the verge of
what, were almost any other country than this
concerned, would be war. Whether it is plain
pig-headedness or a deliberate policy of trying
to incite the spirit of nationalism among the
people as a support of his government, it rests
for its success entirely upon the traditional for
bearance, good nature and horror of war of the
American people. Fortunate indeed for the
Carranza administration or any other Mexican
government pursuing a like policy, that it is
the United States and not almost any other na
tion possessing military power, which borders
that country. This good luck for Mexico is not
solely because we so long and patiently with
hold our hand from war, but as well because we !
stand between misgoverned Mexico and other
nations not of such patient habit
v Mexico has been omitted from the list of
nations invited to become signatories of the
Versailles treaty and thus members of the
League of Nations. This omission was made
because its government is not considered by
the other nations as a responsible one. High
sounding declarations of principle and forms of
government do not make either a democracy
or a government so representative of the people
or so dependable that it may be considered a
responsible member of the great world league.
However, patient as the United States is and
loth to ;Use military force, our citizens, must be
protected and our interests and rights re
spected. Probably the Carranza government
will stop short of forcing us into actual war or
intervention by such explanations and modifi
cations of conduct as may be necessary barely
to accomplish that purpose, such as the release
of Consul Jenkins, without altering its attitude
of contemptuous hostility. This is more likely
to be the case because of the failure of Mexico
to procure arms and ammunition sufficient for
the prosecution of a war. Firmness in dealing
with Mexico now is rendered the more neces
sary and the more difficult' because of the vacil
lating policy of the past few years. It has left
in the Mexican mind doubt as to the location
of our dead line of patience, which is therefore
the more likely to be overstepped. St. Louis
