WILSON'S AMERICANISM.
If ytrn were to asK a aozen Anieri-
chu I'itUenii to define the worn.
"Americanism" probably you would
received aa many answers. What the
term denote and connotes depends
upon the character and mental make
up of the Individual defining it.
To Bouie men Americanism simply
means unrestricted license to do as
one pleases regardless of the rights
of others or the limitations which the
will of society as expressed in law
sets upon one"s conduct. These men
belong to or gravitate toward the
criminal classes of low and high es-
tate. To others Americanism is asso-
ciated with a sort of chauvinistic sen-
timent which finds voluble expression
in a patriotic clamor for this country
of ours to follow the beckouings (of
"manifest destiny" and occupy a prom-
inent "place In the sun."
In this day of world upheaval we
have many spokesmen for American-
ism all exploiting their own favorite
brands most of which are guaranteed
to be the genuine article take no
other at your peril. Theodore Roose-
velt purveys bis own particular brand
with strenuous persistency and Wood-
row Wilsou puts forth what he consid-
ers the unadulterated article. It
would be interesting to' contrast and
compare the ideals of these two great
men but today we purpose to give you
only the Wilsou conception of the
word. In his speech at Charlotte N.
C the president discussed the "soul
of America" emphasizing that what
he termed "untainted Americanism."
His ideas may be. gleaned from
the following extracts from his
speech:
"What 1 want to call your attention
to la that this nation has devoted it-
self almost too much to material
things. There have been other nations
just as rich as the United StateB. We
must think of what we are going to
do with our wealth and our prosperity.
"What kind of fire of pure passion
are you going to keep burning under
the pot in order that the mixture that
comes out may be purged of Its dross
and may be the fine gold of untainted
Americanism? That is the problem.
"Europe is fighting outin war the
questions we are fighting out In peace.
As the processes of communication
have grown better nations and peoples
have grown closer together.
"Men can now learn more about
each other. So that now the melting
pot is bigger than America. It is ai
big as the world. See then what a
new world we have come into.
"Here in America we tried to set
the example of peace by keeping to-
gether. Isn't it the sign and dawn of
a new age that the one thing now on
which the world is about to fall back
is the moral judgment of mankind?"
The president said be would like to
think the "spirit of this 6ccasion"
could be expressed "if we could imag-
ine ourselves lifting up some symbol
of humanity."
He added he hoped the United
States after the European war would
be able to lift up a symbol of the
"still small voice of humanity."

Chicago. May 23. Renewal of crop
damage reports from the southwest
led to something of an upturn today in
the price of wheat after an early set
back. The market closed steady at
$1.09 1-8 for July and $109 718 to
$1.10 for September with the range as

with yesterday's finish: In corn the
outcome was a gain of l-4c and 3-8c
to l-2c and in oats Sc decline to a
like advance. Provisions closed un-
changed to 30c down.
Misgivings in regard to the Kansas
crop had a good deal to do with turn-
ing sentiment to the bull side of the
wheat market. ' Advices were also at
hand telling of serious destruction by
Hessian fly in Missouri and Illinois.
Corn rallied with wheat. The mar-
ket was bulllshly Influenced too by
the scantiness of receipts and by Illi-
nois reports that much replanting had
been found necessary. Oats prices
averaged lower as a result of favor-
able crop reports.
