THE PATRIARCH Tikhon, head of
the Russian church, is dethroned and
denounced as a traitor—not by Trotzky
but by a congress of the All-Russian
church, which votes loyalty to the sov-
iet and to Lenine as “liberators for
truth.”
Yesterday American Protestant cler-
gymen in Russia were praying for the
success of the Russian government and
praising it.

A BOY S skeleton, is found under wa-
ter, tied to a pier in Lake Michigan. He
is supposed to have been killed by haz-
ing. And professors declare themselves
powerless to stop that brutality
Here’s a suggestion. Before admission
let each student take a solemn oath
not to engage in hazing of any kind
while at college and to reveal any haz-
ing that may come to his knowledge
Even those willing to prove themselves
cowards by torturing helpless comrades
might be unwilling to run the risk of
committing perjury.
THAT WILL shock many, yet it is
not unusual for religion to keep abreast
of changing conditions in politics.
Clergymen realize that to influence
men you must deal with them as they
are, When Napoleon seated himself
on a throne made vacant by revolution-
ists that chopped off the head of Louis
XVI he held his sceptre with religious
approval, and the head of the church
came to France to crown him emperor
Other kings looked on him as Europe’s
kings now look on Lenine.

A poll tax receipts costs $1.75.
Every man and woman who have
paid that sum will certainly get full
value for their money today.
Three distinct elections are being
held.
One for city officers.
One for bond issues aggregating $1,-
725,000.
One for a state representative.
In the city and state elections every
qualified voter is entitled to a ballot.
On the bond issues, only qualified
property-owning voters are eligible.
If you haven’t voted yet, there is still
time.
The polls will be open until 7 o’clock
this evening.

" By ARTHUR HISBANE. "
Copyright 1923, by Star Company
AS THIS is written an army flying
machine finishes a journey from the
Atlantic to the Pacific without a stop
at an average speed of about 100 miles
an hour. A little while ago Northcliffe
was offering $50,000 to any man that
would fly all the way across the Eng-
lish channel from France to England—
not as far as from Chicago to Milwau-
kee.
Young people of today will fly
around the earth and think no more
of it than we think of riding in an au-
tomobile—the experience that was so
exciting only twenty years ago.
In mechanical ways we move rapid-
ly. In intellectual and spiritual ways
less rapidly. Perhaps a spiritual age will
follow this mechanical age. Pray for
that.

The most Important bond issues are
the $1,250,000 West End grade raising
proposal, and the $125,000 waterworks
improvement project.
The $100,000 issue for the improve-
ment of the streets is also worth while.
The West End needs filling and needs
it badly.
This section is building up despite
the low, swampy condition of the land.
If filled, it would build up rapidly,
providing sites not only for residences
but industries as well.
The Alta Loma pumping plant urg-
ently requires extensive rehabilita-
tion.
An adequate supply of pure water is
one of the prime essentials of munici-
pal life.
GERMANY offered France and Bel-
gium seven thousand, five hundred mil-
lion dollars in gold to get out of the
Ruhr. The offer is declined without
thanks. England was not consulted. Her
fleet’s blockade made possible the
French victory. America was not con-
sulted, of course—they only consult
this country when they want to borrow
money or postpone the payment of a
debt. Europe’s opinion of this nation is
that it came into the war too late to
be of much use, and didn’t do much
after it got in.

PROFESSOR BIGELOW, of Colum-
bia University, says: "Asquired charac-
teristics are not heredity” and contra-
dicts the Viennese professor who pre-
dicts that soon children will be made
to inhert the genius of their fathers.
Mr. Biselow is wise, but how does
he explain the changes in the human
race How did it get rid of cannibalism,
and the red hair that covered its body
in the old days, of its big canine teeth,
projecting jaw, etc?
And how do young mud wasps, bees
and ants achieve the acquired surgical
architectural and other habits of their
parents? The brain learns and trans-
mits its knowledge, In the lower ani-
mals we call it instinct. In men we call
it “higher civilization,"

A new city administration will short-
ly take over the reins of office in Gal-
veston.
That is the salient fact of the mu-
nicipal election campaign which is be-
ing decided at the polls today.
The new administration faces some
problems fraught with vital signifi-
cance for the future of the Treasure
Island City.
Not the least of these problems is
the task of welding the city’s popula-
tion into a harmonious whole, fired
with a determination to build a more
glorious city.
The city government is more inti-
mately connected with the daily lives
of the people than any other.
Upon it depends, in a large meas-
ure, the happiness and prosperity of
Galveston’s 50,000 souls.
