SATURDAY, OCTOBER 23, 1920 The End In Sight The experiment in government by the proletariat which has been going on in Russia seems to be about to come to the unlovely end that such an adventure deserves. A policy that puts a premium upon ignorance and incapacity, and penalizes intelli- gence and ability is bound to fail miserably. That fate has not over- taken the people under the prevail- ing regime in Russian until much longer than it should have, not until much unnecessary agony has been suffered, much unnecessary loss been endured. Brains will always dominate over brute force if given time. As man has mastered the lower animals and compelled them to do his bidding, to work under his direction, so will that portion of mankind that has become most highly developed control the future of the race. It is the only view to take of the progress of the human race that is not too dis- couraging to be considered. | It has required only a very little while for the ruthless hands of the present government in Russia to de- stroy what had been built up through: the centuries, by hands directed by | intelligence. Those who have de- stroyed cannot again build up, a fact that is only beginning to per- colate into the consciousness of the ignorant and misdirected Russian people. Nearly two years have passed since the cannon ceased to roar in Europe, but only now is there any reason to think that the beginning of the end 'of the chaos that war produced is near at hand. Many years must elapse before the effects of the war cease to exist on the surface of the lives of the peoples of the countries involved in it. But the prospect of the reorganization of Russia on a basis of individual integrity and per- sons of intelligence in positions of power and responsibility s the best sign that the time is near when the peoples of the world will be able -again to live normal and measurably comfortable lives.

BUSCH ANTI-THOMPSON CANDIDATE FOR COUNTY JUDGE Gets Strong Republican Support Thousands of Republicans and in- dependent voters, thoroughly arous- ed to the peril of ailowing the Elec- tion machinery of Chicago and Ci- cero and the administration of we Psychopathic Hospital to fall in #3 hands of the Thompson-Lundin City Hall spoilsmen, are flocking to the support of FRANCIS X.

Foe mn oon oy Increases Torrens Efficiency RECORD OF JOSEPH F. HAAS RECORDER OF DEEDS AND REGISTRAR OF TITLES One of Real Service The sclection of Joseph F. Haas in the recent primary as the Re- publican candidate for re-election as Recorder of Deeds and Regist- rar of Titles was not only a person- al compliment to Mr. Haas, but de- monstrated beyond question that vo- ters, even when confronted with a long involved ballot, are able to discriminate between candi- dates and vote for a man for whom they have a long, true and lasting friend- ship. Josdph F. Haas is fortun- . ate in having JOSEPH F. HAAS lived a life of real public ser- vice for a long enough period that the average voter associates his name at once with honesty and efficiency in the administration of a public office. Because he has given that kind of service in the past, and his record shows that he will continue to do so in the future, Joseph F. Haas is rich indeed in the friendship of the men and women of Cook County. One of the many things that are of lasting benefit to the public which have been accomplished by hTm was shown in the Torrens de- partment this week. Under the Torrens law no provision is made for spreading plats of subdivisions of record. As a plat is evidence of what a subdivision actually con- tains and what the number and size of the lots therein are, it can be readily seen that the owner of any lot in a subdivision where the plat was lost or misplaced might be put to serious loss and expense. Various Recorders have recognized that this was a defect in the law and have started in a desultory and fitful manner to spread Torrens plats of record, but in the end have always stopped without completing the work. When Joseph F. Haas came into office, however, he rec- ognized that the rights of lot own- ers might be jeopardized by the loss of a plat, and proceeded to spread every Torrens plat of record and to make each plat just as accessible to the public as plats shown in the nlat book of the Recorder's Office. He went hack over the last twenty vears that the law has been in oneration and has brought every plat up to date, and is now prepar- ing for the public an index to those plats which will be distribut- ed free of charge. This work has not been done in a day, a month or even a year, but he went at it with the idea of finishing the job for the benefit of the nublic and he finished it. Now it will be an easy matter to keen the new plats spread of record as they come in from day to day. This is the sort of thing which the Recorder of Deeds is constant- lv doing. His rule is to do for others in public office what he would like to have them do for himself--to give constant, real amd unselfish service.
