Charles I, Emperor and Exile.
An emperor is dead, but the avenue of hi
.lte capital will not resound with acclaim (or his
successor.
Charles, Ute emperor of Austria and king of
, Hungary, died at l-'unchal, deposed and exiled, a
victim of circumstance of birth and politics.
When Francis Ferdinand was murdered at
Sarajevo, not only was the train lighted that blew
tip Europe, but the way was cleared for Charles
to become emperor, A major in an infantry
regiment, he had had none of that special training
supposed to lit a ruler or his place; lie came to
the throne unprepared and almost unknown.
While the war was on, or until nearly its end, he
was under domination and direction of Berlin,
and moved not as the head of an independent
state but as a vassal. Lacking in political skill,
he was unable to cope with the forces that broke
up his empire wheri disaster from outside could
no longer be averted, and his abortive efforts to
resume power after having been deposed had
only the effect of showing his impotence and
bringing him exile.
Charles was not the last of the Hapsburgs,
nor will his, death end the pretentions of the
family to rulership in Austria and Hungary. Just
row Korthy is facing serious situation in Hun
gary, which may terminate in the elevation of a
Hapsburg to the throne of that country, where
the rule of the strong hand is a tradition founded
before history's dawn. But Charles may wjell
illustrate the vanity of human greatness. He w as
.known only for negative qualities, domestic
in his tastes and following an uneventful career
when assassination and war set him on a throne,
swept him off, and left him an enforced resident
of a detached island. His only claim to memory
will be his misfortune.
To his credit should be set down the fact
that he realized the plight of his country long be
fore the collapse, and did try to bring about a
cessation of the war before the final calamity
overtook him. - He was not strong enough to
cope with the forces that held him, and so went
down to wreck.
Recognition.
A London' philosopher has lately put into
words something that has long been understood,
and sometimes expressed. It is the fact that fa
miliarity not only breeds contempt, but also adds
to pleasure. In reaching his conclusion, he illus
trates his process by calling attention to the fact
that the crowd at the "zoo" does not go rampag
ing after strange animals or objects, but looks
up and lingers lovingly over such as it can put
a name to. Likewise, when one goes into a shop
to make a purchase, he listens with little interest
to a list of strangely sounding names, until amid
fhe lot he hears one familiar, and buys the ar
ticle because he recognizes its title. And in a
greater or lesser degree this rule applies all
through life. The advantage of advertising is not
in the immediate offer of a bargain, for, unless it
be sufficiently rare, the attractiveness of it is apt
to be overlooked; it is in getting people accus
v toraed to a name, which, supported by even ordi
nary merit, is accepted because it is that of an
acquaintance. In politics this counts double; a
candidate who is known has a long start over
one who is unknown, no matter what Jheir other
qualifications may be. Many a man has been
lifted into office because the voter knew his name
and did not know the other chap's. . Something
of this entered into the contest between New
berry and Ford; the one was before the people
in a way that made his name commonly fa
miliar to all, the other had to establish himself
by lavish use of money in advertising. Illus
trations of the point might be greatly multiplied,
but this is enough to show that recognition
if a factor in control of our ordinary acts.

"broadcasting" a series of lectures on educational
subjects. This is as it should be. While the
wireless has been of immense service in a com
, mercial and other practical ways, its chief use
in a popular sense has been to purvey amusement.
Programs sent out from central stations con
tain a modicum of useful matter, such as news
bulletins and market and weather reports and
the like, but mostly they have attention for their
lighter qualities. Music, recitations and the sim
ilar forms are employed to give zest to the
possession of a radio set, while amateur operators
have aport among themselves anJ now and again
with others. In fact, the government recently
iound the air so crowded with waves sent aimless
by amateurs that strict regulations were devised
to prevent the interference of the dillctante with
those on business bent. Therefore, the announce
ment from Tufts comes as timely.

Immigration: Limit, or Stop?
Mri Alexander P, Mor, better known at
Lillian Ru"ll, it jut bark front Europe, where
she wilt tent at special commuiionrr by the
otrretary of lalwir to look over the rmitfranti
headed for the I'uited State. She comet pre
f ared lo advocate the total rtcluoion of huro
peant for a definite term, at least five yeart. Her
view i are in line with those of other, previously
ekprrtted.(but arguing from the tame point to
the nrne conclution. Mri. Moore fa)t;
'I he immigration of recent yeart hat been
front that cU. of people which arre.u, rather
than aid., the development of any nation.
W hen I declare that mo.t of those now keek
ing to come here have not any of the inspira
tion of the necessity of the early kettlert iroin
abroad, I am statins facts that imprest every
body who makes any iudy of turopcaii ton-
Unions.
The.e vieut will not be readily adopted by
all; in fad, there are many who do not patiently
loiioldrr the thought of more severely restrict
ing immigration, holding the present law tevere
enough. Mrt. Moore tayt: "The melting pot
hat been overcrowded. It lia boiled too quickly,
and i running over." The answer to this it not
to rcae feeding the pot, but to watch it with
renter care. The foreigner coining to our thore
probably are those who best can be spared by
the European landt that release them; a little
more intelligent handling of the kituation on this
tide ought to at least give them a chance.
America's danger does not come to much from
the threat of European invasion at it does from
an inadequate dealing with the social problems
that are involved in immigration. An Omaha
ocial worker said here last winter that you can
not Americanize an alien by reading him the
constitution of the United Slates and giving him
a sandwich. When our own people become thor
oughly Americanized, they will be better pre
pared to extend that boon to the citizens who
come from abroad. In the meantime, the sub
ject of immigration is open to discussion, which
should be all the more careful, because all our
ancestors once came here from abroad.
Recalling Peary's Triumph.
While Roald Amundsen is making preparations
to set forth on another long journey to the north,
Washington is getting ready to properly observe
an interesting achievement in Arctic exploration.
On Thursday at the capital will be dedicated a
monument to Robert Edwin Tcary, who reached
the North pole on April 6, 1909. Human history
scarcely holds a parallel for that achievement. It
was the triumphant climax to a career that had
been devoted to its accomplishment. Centuries
of effort had failed; expedition after expedition
had been turned back, and Teary had tried and
tried in vain, until his last bold dash took him
lo the goal, and gave him the crown sought by
many intrepid but unsuccessful explorers.
lie did not live to complete his work, nor has
it yet been finished by another. Stefansson is
authority for the statement that Peary was mis
taken as to land at the pole, saying he found open
water where Peary had located land. Incidentally,
Stefansson put the final quietus on the Cook
claim, by showing that Cook did not know the
conditions he wrote of, and that the location the
doctor gave for his ship on one occasion actually
is several miles from water and on a consid
erable elevation of land.
Amundsen hopes to supplement the Peary dis
coveries, and to give the world more definite
information concerning its top. It will be of serv
ice to science in many ways to have certain dis
putes as to currents and the like cleared up, but
to Peary goes the imperishable glory of having
found the North pole, just as Amundsen later
found the South, the latter only a few hours
before the lamented Robert Falcon Scott reached
the same spot, to be so bitterly disappointed.
Scott's tragic fate is part of the epic of polar ex
ploration. The names of these three will live
while geography is studied, and while Americans
will note with pride the dedication of the Peary
monument, they also will watch with interest the
future of Amundsen.
Propaganda and the Photoplay.
David Wark Griffith is, perhaps, as compe
tent as any to speak on the past, present and
possible future of the moving pictures, especially
as the art is evinced in the photoplay. He gives
as his opinion that the use of the screen for the
purpose of carrying on political or similar propa
ganda would be futile. This is because one side
will have as free use of the screen as the other,
and there you are. He does regard the camera
as a great educator, the ready interpreter of great
thoughts, and delicately suggests that what it
most needs now is brains in vits application.
With all these conclusions of Mr. Griffith the
casual will readily agree, especially as they are
in line with thoughts that must have come at
once when the suggestion was recently made by
an emuient partisan opponent of the present ad
ministration, to the effect that the advent of Will
H. Hays into the industry meant that the busi
ness of carrying on the screen drama would in
the future be turned to the advantage of the re
publican party. He gave his own party credit
with too ittle astuteness, and left himself open to
the inference that his need is in line with that of
the "movies," according" to Mr. Griffith.
Underlying all the criticism of the moving pic-
lure is the one thought America's demand is for
clean amusement at its theaters. Our people
re clean minded, and instinctively resent the un
clean. If it has appeared to prosper, it is be
cause of that tolerant curiosity that prompts the
doing of anything once. But the managers make
a great mistake when they accept -the opinion of
a few as indicative of the thought of the masses.
As the great McKinley said of the election, it is
not settled in the turmoil of partisan discussion in
August, but in the quiet reflection Jround the
firesides in October. So the future of the photo
play is being determined, not in the efforts of
Broadway to sense what will draw multitudes to
the theater, but in the homes of a hundred million
people, whose ideals of decency are unshaken by
so-called modernism.
When Henry Ford's railroad loses money
there must be some excuse for the others falling
behind.
Even the senators appreciate a day of rest.
Maybe that'i the Irish notion of peace.

mean that the real reason for the

have consented to the acquisition
of It." A penalty is imposed for
the shooting or snaring of any mi
gratory bird, or the taking of Its
eggs In violation of regulations made
by the government for public shoot
ing grounds and bird refuges. In a
brief in support of the proposed act
Frederic .R. Coudert of New York
said that "since the validity of the
treaty with Great Britain regarding
the protection of birds of passage
has been upheld by the supreme
court of the United States, the con
gress may adopt such measures ss
It deems necessary or spproprlate
to carry out the terms of said,
treaty." It is assumed, of course,
that the states will consent to the
purchase or rental of lands, which
in most cases would be swamp lands,
by the United States government.
Mr. Coudert argued that no objec
tion could be raised to the hunting
license Issued by the government be
cause it would be In the nature of
an excise tax. and. "uniform"
throughout the United States, as re
quired by the constitution.
Representative Anthony, a sport
man himself, is of the opinion that
there are 60,000.000 acres of marsh
land in the country which could be
taken over and conserved by the
government for public hunting
grounds and migratory game bird
lefuges. Most of the state wardens
have come out for the act. A speci
men approval Is that of Game and
Fish .Commissioner Lee Miles of
Arkansas: "I cannot understand
how a man could be a sportsman
and not favor this law." Clubs,
leagues and associations all over the
country have declared for the bill
recommended by the American
Game Protective association. The
only note of opposition comes from
owners of land, including small
farms, where migratory game birds
may sometimes be shot. It has been
urged that they be not required to
pay a federal hunting license, in
Mr. Coudert's opinion this would not
be a nonuniform regulation.
