SATURDAY, JUDY 8, 11)22. I aotild l)i tin easy matter to set j liiestion as to whether Amer-i i. -hips sh.mld sell liquor on hoard viiul the three mile limit. Every' vessel flying the flog of the United States should be prohibited both < within and without the three mile; limit. A vessel that flies the flag should live up to the traditions of the country whose Hag it flies. Ships that' sail the seas carrying our flag should not bo allowed to run open barrooms : Ships that carry our flag look to tlu>| government to extend its protection r:o matter where it goes. So long a.- j such ships expect protection, no mat-! ter what the cost, they should live up , to our customs at home. Congress i should enact a law forbidding the* sale of whiskey while carrying the (lag. That would settle the matter, provided it was made a penalty to I change flags luring the voyage. The increasing number of suicides I is something that should cause serious minded people grave concern. Hardly! a day passes that there are not re-; ported from one to three or four such cases within the borders of the state What is going on here Is going on in other sections of the country and ir foreign countries. The degenerating influences of a world conflict are re-j sponsible. The unsettled conditions, the lowering of the moral standar I and the straits to which many are are among th" causes that are re- j sponsible. Taking away the narcotics from (he dopcrs and liquor from the drunkards has no doubt helped u> swell the number, particularly the taking away of the narcotic. Most of the old soaks will, after a time, have found a suicide's grave. Provision should be made by the state to treat such cases. It is as much the duty of the state to treat and cart; for the dope fiend as it is to care forj the insane. Indeed, a man who has been habitually under the influence of drugs for years, when deprived of his "dope", is really insane. Most of us die twenty years earlier than the natural time of our departure because we stutf our stomachs with nil sorts of foods at all hours. If we do not lind an early grave we { drop into middle life maimed and possessed of many aches and pains. The quantity of food, the rich pastures, the gormandizing in meats, the mixing ?f foods that are incompatible and the habit of gulping down whatever goes into the stomach are among iii?- I'liinc rui^rs mi" ill(? WOPS Ifl'lt i vertake us. It is not our work but our eating that is destroying us, maiming us, poisoning us by the thousands. Gormandizing, gluttony, hastt and lack of common sense in eating is th<* on<> great sin of the people. We would expect poor combustion in a boiler if the flues were choked with carbon, yet, we expect the human body til ifi\ ri?rVlt Gn fttnr?f i/?ninu? i?>'/?noi?lo oven though every flue in it be ehoke.1 with undigested food and poisoned l?y the process. One of our great troubles lies in the fact that we insist or mixing such amazing, antagonistic elements. Maybe, seme day we will tt grow wiser. But wisdom is now a great way from being ruler in the domain of appetite, it seems to,us. THE PRESIDENT'S TIMKI.Y 1 WARN I NO. Returning to his old home for the lirst time since his inauguration. " ri ij ? a tt 1? . t ? - - i ruhi'iuni, naming nrougnt his Teiiow townsmen?and the nation- a timelv 1 warning, and some very sound advice. Three sentences in his address stand out in particular prominence, and | cught to be soberly pondered. They are: "A free American has the right to labor without any other's leave." ( "It will be a sorry day when group | domination is reflected in our laws," \ and "The greatest traitor to his eoun- | try is he who appeals to prejudice and inflames passim, when sober judgment and honest speech are so neres-! s sary to firmly establish tranquility and security." More timely utterances could not have been made. The truth of the President's words is self-evident, ami it is no compliment to the communitj that it needs to have its attention sharply called to such obvious principles or indeed that danger should exist from sources of this sort. Yet 'the fact remains that the conditions against which Mr. Harding warns us have risen hydra-headed in our midst. Only a few days ago half a hun. died "free Americans" were brutally butchered because they dared exercise their right to labor without "anether's leave." That was a conspicu< us and extreme case and naturally attracted widespread attention. Plenty of instnees of the same thing, different only in degree, occur without attracting especial notice. "Picketing," more often perhaps than not constitutes an active and aggressive denial of the right of free men to work. Nor is the pressure brought to bear upon workmen to refrain from labor confined to "picketing" in th<> ordinary sense. Efforts to enact class legislation have been so frequent of late and success so threatening that the situation constitutes a national menace. Agricultural interests have become politically organized and, having alreadv obtained special favors from the public, now press for further "aid"?and seem to be in a good way to get it. "Veterans" clamor for largesse. Shipowners demand funds from the long suffering public, and sundry special interests seem likely to obtain large tariff grants at the expense of th" consumer. Labor, long satisfied with anti-trust laws when their rigor was directed at capital, insists that the unions be exempt from such legislation or, failing that, that the laws be repealed. Appeals to prejudice, class feeling and passion have likewise been all too plentiful of lafee. These take many forms and have run about the whole gamut of human frailty. The "found ing fathers" would no doubt rest uneasy in their graves if they knew how their words are used to stir up unthinking impulses in an endeavor to perpetuate a policy of international isolation, to induce us to shirk our duty and indeed our own interests. War hatreds are made to pay an im portant part in the tariff campaign. In the same way, wage earners nave been led into excesses of fool ish passion by silly charges against owners of property. They are told that exorbitant profits are being concealed, and at tbe same time that in oustrial depression was deliberately brought on by financiers to break tbe the unions. Meaningless shibboleths and alleged "rights"! have been used to arouse mentally undisciplined mei: to action which can but result in tho'.v injury. All of this is not new to this day nn/1 * . m?.if uui, iiui iur many years, if ever, have we had so much of it, and it is as true today as always that we cannot prosper as long as these diseases are active in our midst. The President is both right and timely in his warning. Men must be free to work, the common good of all must be our goal, and reason, not passion, must guide us if full prosperity and happiness are to be ours.?The Journal of Commerce.
