Assuredly M r. Good is right when he says the U n ited S t a t e s never can reach a ‘‘safe and san e ” policy by becoming security fo r ban k r u p t Euro pean nations, call it \sta b iliza t io n ” or by w h atever other high-flow n W ilson- CO X’S O P P O R T U N I T Y . An investigation begun at Chicago today has for its object the uncover ing of all the facts relating to cam paign contributions thus far, so that violations of tho law if an y exist may be identified and means taken to pre vent further infractions. Governor Cox of Ohio, who has uttered and reiterated the charge that a ‘‘fifteen- million-dollar corruption fund,” w a s be ing raised by his opponents, will havo ample opportunity to establish the charge, by irrefutable evidence if he has it. I f ho has no evidence, which thus fa r ho has failed to produce, he must inevitably stand convicted of loose talking, unfair methods and, the deliberate persistence in falsehood manufactured either by o r for him. No indication, publicly or otherwise, lias been given by G o v e rnor Cox that ho intended to answer the Senate Com mittee’s invitation to appear and lay before it tho inform ation on which he based his chaqje. H is only reply so fa r has b^en that he intended to \provo” his allegations, in his own w a y ; and his own w a y has been the mere repetition of them, with the added assertion that he had “ proved” them. Democratic organs, moreover, havo taken tip the cudgels and heralded, the Cox charge as “ proved.” In case Governor C o x declines vol untarily to appear, he probably w ill be subpoenaed before the Senate Commit te e ; and if there is any law whereby he can bo mado to do so lie should be compelled to appear and tell all he knows. Tho fair assum ption is that a l l that Mr. Cox knows on this subject is very little indeed. T h c supposition is that he “shot his wait” in the Pittsburgh speech, w h ich he merely reiterated, with variations, in subse quent speeches. Thc am a zing character of a charge which _the author deliber ately repeats but refuses fa irly to sub stantiate requires no comment. Republican leaders, on thc other hand, are preparing system a tically to lay before the Senate Committee de tailed statements show ing the entire list of contributions and campaign plans. H aving nothing to conceal, they can well afford to d,o this. “ Quota lists” manufactured by or for Mr. Cox have no legitimate placo in the evidence now to be eonsi-Jered The only items that may Ju s tly count are tho genuine lists of Republican con tributions and expenditures. Failure to refute this bona ildo evidence now promised, will leave the Democratic nominee in the unenviilile position of a m anufacturer of campaign roorbacks and a retailer of misinformation. The marital exp e r im e n t recom mended, on actual exp e r ien c e , some time ago by a prom inent authoress, whereby she and h e r sp o u s e main tained separate establishm e n ts, seems to be duplicated b y a P e n n s y lvan ia couple. One Adam C a r l, fo r m e r m ayor of Waynesboro, announces h i s m ar riage twelve years • a g o to M iss Anna M a rtha Shearer of Ch n m b e rsburg, who in the meantime h a s continued, to re side in the latter city. O s ten s ibly Mr. and M rs. Carl did n o t dven breakfast together occasionally, a s did the more fam ous pair. M a trim o n y b e in g an ex periment a t the best, a c c o r d in g to divers cynics, the P e n n s y lv a n ia w a y appears simple for those d e s irin g to avert the d,readed “ o ld m a id ” or “ old m acbelor” stage. B y the c a s u a l expe dient o f having the cerem o n y per formed, those who fe e l tlia t domestic burdens are too great an d u n c e r t a in to assume m ay go their se v e r a l w a y s and still be matrons and benedicts, avoid ing the tieless old, a g e w h ic h many profess to view w ith m isg ivin g s . A housewife residing in th e C i t y of Cham bersburg certainly ru n s no risk of havin g the regular m o r n in g spat w ith the head of the figm e n t a r y house hold residing in the T o w n o f W a y n e s boro, some miles distant.

Representa tive Good, assumes such is not the case l i e delves into European finances to illustrate his point On the only figures available as to tho w e a lth of European nations,— which are those compiled be fore tlie w a r — he quotes the total of G r e a t Britain as 6 !) billions. On May 1 5 o f this year B r itain ’s debt was billions. France, w ith a pre-war total w e a lth of fix billion-;, bad a total debt last December, according to reliable compilations, of -IG billions. Italy, with a pre-w a r wealth of not quite 2:1 bil lions, had a total debt last .May, ac cording to one of her foremost financiers, of nearly IS billions. On tlio other hand,, the national w e a lth of tho United S t a t e s is today 2-10 billions, whereas our national debt totals billions or less, “ n o w can w e undertake,” asks M r Good, • to stabilize the credits o f bankrupt na tiuns under such conditions?” The question is timely, as anyone cau see F o r tho United States, a solvent na tion, to assume the burdens of bank rupt nations is a proposition straight from the Wilsonian financial Utopia. The added fact is to be considered that we hold today ten billions of European bonds ou w h ich no interest w h a tever is being paid. T h e Wilsun- O r * proposition is that not only should, we sacrifice the JffiOrt.OOO.OOO annual in terest on this vast debt, but assum e ad- dnioiial burdens. \ I f tho people of this ( ount-ry aro w illing to increase the v,-< «.f living ami are ready to pay the hi N fur this stabilizing nf European C ( . t~. says Mr. Goo,) •“ let them oc- ‘H O W TO B E H A P P Y T H O U G H M A R R I E D .” * Boston T r a n s c r ip t . Tho bill which on A u g u s t 1 passed the Germ an National A s s e m b ly abolish ing compulsory m ilitary service, w as not carried without a sensational scene. I t w a s passed o n ly a f t e r hours of noisy verbal war. T h e a c t is o f high significance in thc m inds o f the Ger man people, who declare, am o n g other things, that it is au open a c t o f the Germ an Parliam ent w h ich should greatly contribute to the reassurance of Fren c h opinion. T h e G e r m a n press and public are agreed, on th is. I t prob ably w a s only ah accid e n t th a t the bill should pass on the s i x t h anniver sary o f the declaration o f w a r designed to exhibit to the world th e pow e r, pre cision and glory of an a r m y raised by com pulsory service.

Yo u n r o / t h e cause of our widows nnd o r p h a n s !” Such scenes reflected, accurately the bitter ness w ith which the opposing opinions aro held. Yet the vote does not truly reflect the opinion of m a n y w h o voted for the measure. T h e governm ent speakers bade good-bye to tho old com pulsory system with no enthusiasm . We nre thankful to the old arm y for ts loyalty and achievem ent,” said H e rr lesbler, minister of defense, “ and, can not believe that a condition o f things which In s been forced upon us w ill be f lone duration ” Nor does anyone outside w h a t was lie German empire think otherwise.
