A certain brand of so-called newspapers cannot hide
their rage when another newspaper is successful. Such
brands must be expected to splutter but this paper must
ask to be excused from even taking notice. It must ask
even to be excused from taking notice when a falsehood
is insinuated. Life is too short to take notice of a lot of
little things. Indeed, it is rather pleasant sometimes to see
someone who tries to oppose you getting sore. It shows
their opposition is not very satisfactory, poor dears.
The coming of submarines to this side is one more
new phase of the great war which may have strange re
sults. It is difficult to understand how the submarines
can hope to get supplies but there must have been some
way arranged before they came across. The United
States is about the only manufacturing country in the
world which is not mixed up in the war and Germany
probably has decided to nip the supplies for the Allies at
their source instead of at their destination. As it looks,
though, it seems impossible that this country can avoid
trouble now.
We are now less than a month from the territorial
elections. At that election also the people will express
their opinion on the liquor question and for that reason

Democratic government makes everone very much
alike. If you read the speeches of Wilson, Hughes and the
rest outside vou will find thev are just about the same in
every sense as the speeches of Wickersham and Sulzer and
the others here. There is really no great question of any
kind to be solved in the Hinted States or in anv of its home

territories. If there was a question of great imortance
to Ik1 settled it would have been settled long ago if the
people found a settlement possible. There is no one in a
republic powerful enough to thwart the people's will for
very long. The result of popular government is that poli
tical parties have a hard time to figure out some scheme
by which to get votes. Just now Wall Street or pro-(!er
manism appears to have the door. IVotcctivism is also
cutting quite a figure but how many people w ill bother
about it?
