As the best little territory grabber the world has yet known commend us to our good friend and alley in the great war, Great Britain. The final terms arranged by the council of the League of Nations, which Britain dominates, with reference to German Southwest Africa oyer which Britain holds a mandate, are that it shall be an in- tegral part of the South African union, which is Brit- ish territy. If ere is any difference between a mandate and ovZership where Britain is concerned we would like to have the distinction pointed out. And all the high-sounding stuff about self-deter- mination, which we heard a great deal about during the early days.of the peace conference, seems to have become a dead letter in the practical adjudication of national affairs, and the determination of the*fate of colonial péssessions, dependencies ‘and ‘stray scraps of territory, the people of which found themselves disorganized as the outcome of war. Fortunate, in- deed, is it that the United States is not a party to the grand game.ofgmab.that has signalized the ac- tion of. other powers-concerned in the-peace affairs of the world. + ee eee eee The best thing America can. do for herself is to kick the Prop out of propaganda as peddled by for- eigners, enjoying the hospitulity ofthis government, in the interest of foreign affairs which are of no in- terest to us. ae aa eee HAS OLD TIME RING. When Mr. Secretary Hughes took his pen in hand to address a brief note to Panama and Costa Rica we were taken back to the days of Theodore Rooseye!t when a“totmmtnication from our government to an- other government meant what it said and was. eas- ily “undefstoSd* by the retipient and in “most €ases Promptlyand favorably acted upon. Our interest’ in the incipient row which was about to assume the importance of a war, is of course the Panama Canal and such moral obligations. as we as- sumed when Panama became an independent state. The merits of the dispute is mo concern of the Washington government's; but the peaccfui solution of the local difference is our concern. There can be no row kicked up in the vicinity of so vital a link in the world’s commerce as the Panama Canal, to endanger it in the slightest degree; and it is well that Mr. Hughes laid down the general rule that vaudeville performances must be held elsewhere than along the canal. ~ =o. When a-cabinet officer of the present administra- tion has anything to say, it amounts to something and is received with respectful attention. It has not been so for the past eight yea! pad (SE a es ‘A TOUGH PROBLEM. William A. Pinkerton, the famous American de- tective, has declared for a return to the lash applied upon the bareback as penalty to check the crime wave, instead of the usual fines and prison sentences prescribed by law, Although it is history that when the whipping post was employed as a means of deterring crime, crime was rampant and no manner of cruel and unusual punishment served to check it. If the means then employed were unavailing, the means now at hand and devised upon principles of humanity are no more effective. The theory of edu- cating people away from evil and wrong doing has broken down as completely as any other system used in the past. The temptation to accept Mr. Pinkerton’s advice is very strong at times when we grow ‘impatient; but in calmer moments we know it is a renaissance to bar- barism that would shame what we pridefully term our civilization. Let us not drag out of the past disearded methods to aid in solving present day problems; let us dis- cover new and better methods. Letius look more to the causes of crime and remove thei insofar as it is possible and then take our chances. eo THE SENATE GUARDS OUR LIBERTIES. Vice President Coolidge, in his inaugural address, ‘has given to the country a classic, worthy to take its place with the utterances of our sincerist patriots, greatest statesmen and most learned expounders of the principles of American government. From a lit- erary point it should be placed in the text books of the public schools as an example of concise English expression as well as a valuable lesson in civics. The text follows: “Five generations ago there was revealed to the people of this nation a new relationship between man and man, which they declared and proclaimed in the American constitution. Therein they recognized a legislature empowered to express the will of the peo- ple in law, a judiciary required to determine and state such law, all holding their office not by reason of some superior force, but through the determined con- science of their countrymen. “To the House, close to the heart of the nation, re- inewing its whole membership by frequent elections, representing directly the people, reflecting their com- mon purpose, has been granted a full measure of the power of legislation and exclusive authority to orig- ‘ inate taxation. Ty the Senate, renewing its member- ship by degrees, representing in part the sovereign | | states, has beer, granted not only a full measure of the power of Jegislation, but, if possible, far more im- portant funesions. To it is intrusted the duty of re- view, that to negotiation there may be added ratifi- cation and to appointment approval. est funedion of all, too little mentioned and too little understood, whether exercised in legislating or review- ing, is the preservation of liberty. Not. merely the rights of the majority—they little need protection— but the rights of the minority, from whatever source they may be assailed. The great object for us to seek here, for the constitution identifies the vice- presidency with the Senate, is to continue to make this chamber, as it was intended by the fathers, the citadel of liberty. An enormous power is conferred, capable of much good or ill; open it maybe to abuse, but necessary, wholly and absolutely necessary, to se- cure the required result. “Whatever its faults, whatever its human imper- fections, there is‘ no legislative body in all history that has used its powers with more wisdom and dis- cretion, more uniformly for the’ execution of the pub- lic will or more in harmony with the spirit of the authority of the people which has created it, than the United States Senate. “I take up the duties the people have assigned me under the constitution, which we can neither enlarge nor diminish, of presiding over this Senate, agreeably to its rules and regulations, deeply conscious that it will continue to function in harmony with its high traditions as a great deliberative body, without pas- sion and without fear, unmoved by clamor, but most sensitive to the right, the stronghold of government according to law, that the vision of past generations may be more and more the reality of generations yet to come.” eae ste ee Bien THE RETIRING VICE PRESIDENT. It was a touching moment when Senator Henry Cabot Lodge of Massachusetts, on behalf of the m: jority of the Senate, presented the retiring vice presi- dent with a loving cup in testimonial of the friendship that all senators bear toward Mr. Marshall. “It is the desire of the Senate,” said Mr. Lodge, “to mani- fest in something more than a formal resolution the personal regret which all of us feel at the fact that we are about to separate. I am sure I am speaking in behalf of all the senators, to express to you the af- fection that we feel for you, our sense of your un- varying kindness to each one of us, the thoroughly human way in which you have always dealt with us individually, and we wish that you should take with you a symbol of our feelings.’’ At the conclusion of the presentation the senators rose to their feet and applauded for several minutes. The kindly feeling that the senators hold for for- mer Vice President Marshall is heightened by knowl- edge of the fact that but for the perverse disposi- tion of the former occupant of the White House he would have been president of the United States: Ac- cording to the letter and spirit of the constitution Mr. Wilson was unable to perform the duties of presi- dent from the day he was stricken with illness over 17 months ago. From that day Mr. Marshal! should have taken over the presidency, and, according to all principles of sound government,.he should also have administered the office during the months that Mr. Wilson chose to desert his own country for the glamour of European capitals. But though the coun- try undoubtedly suffered from the fact that there was a practical vacancy in the office of chief ex- ecutive for over two years in the aggregate, Mr.) Marshall is entitled to high praise for the self-re- straint he imposed upon himself: Mr. Wilson con- descended to allow the vice president to preside at one cabinet meeting, but aside from‘that empty hon- or he was ‘deprived of the distinction that was his constitutional due under the circumstances. AGG a a WHEN UNCLE FALLS DOWN. “When living costs are high, or business conditions are bad,” suggsts the Kansas City Star, ‘(many per- sons turn to the government for help. Uncle Sam, to them, is in a position to run everything better than the men now in charge are running it—whether it be the railroads, the merchant marine, the coal mines, or what not. Here is something for these people to con- sider: “Washington i is full of stories these days about the distribution of federal jobs. So-and-so has the back- ing of this state delegation for some important ex- ecutive position. Somebody else has the backing of another state delegation. The side that can produc the strongest political argument to President Harding is expected to win, “Under our political system efficiency isn’t the test. Political considerations are dominant. We offi- cer our political institutions with politicians, not with business men. Under such circumstances government service is necessarily inefficient. “In general the country cannot hope to get as ef- ficient industrial service from men who owe their po- sitions to politics, as it can get.from men who have won their place in industry through their ability to hold their own in competition “with other men. In business men come to the top because they have the qualities needed to run the business successfully. In political life other qualities count. “The situation in Washington at the opening of the new administration demonstrates why there is no sal- vation in the Socialist solution of industrial problems.” eB OSes Se ENDING THE LONG DAY. “The agreeable intelligence comes, Yemarks the New York Tribune, “that the Steel corporation yielding to public opinion, has at last found:m way to get rid of the seven-dayiweek, with its 24+hour ‘turn’ at the changing of night shifts, and hopes soon to announce the entire abolition of the 12-1 oud day among all its workers, “For many years the 12-hour ‘day, which has applied to approximately one-fifth of the corporation’s em- ployes, has been steadily criticized: The company has pleaded that to eliminate it was almost an operating impossibility, because the heat of the furnaces is con- tinuous; that twelve hours on duty did not mean twelve hours of work (rest periods being numerous) ; that many of the men preferred a system under which their wages were exceptionally high. Nevertheless, the bombardment has gone on, it being asserted that there must be some way to end such long hours. Now by its action the corporation in effect concedes that the instinctive assumption of the non-expert was right and that the experts were wrong. “The Steel corporation does not seem fairly open to the accusation that it has pursued a heartless la- bor-crushing policy, although this is the hack charge of radicals. It has led'in raising wages, in welfare work, in providing safety appliances, in pensions, and in making it easy for its employes to become partners in ownership. But it is big, and this, in the eyes of many, makes it bad. But with the elimination of the 12-hour day perhaps the attacks on it will be less en- ergetic, for here was a matter with respect to which, prima facie, it was wrong. “The struggle for the eight-hour day has taken thirty years. Barring agricultural labor in certain parts of the country and certain professionals and semi-professionals and those who work for themselves, it can survey the field as a conqueror. And that the short day is better for everyone is now conceded. Or- ganized labor properly takes much pride in-its great achievement.” FLD TO When the Democratic members filibustered against the emergency tariff bill, it is quite certain that they were getting even for the great vote the farmers registered against them in the recent election. But its great-| Some Bike Traveler. (Manville News.) Two hundred and seventy-eight miles is a lorg stretch of country to cover in thirty-five hours, but this is the record established by Ransome Howard of this city last week, when he rode a bicycle to Denveer, Colo. Howard left here about 9 a. m. last Tuesday morning and arrived in Den- ver about 8 p. m. Thursday. The first day he made the Valley ranch. in the. Platte valley and. con- tinued his journey the following morn- ing. His record of actual riding shows just thirty-five hours on the wheel, which is, indeed, an excellent record consering the condition of the roads and averaging the grades covered in this distance, t Ransom made 200 miles on Wednes- day, which shows that he is on to the Job of riding a “bike.” Overlooked the Amenities. (Lander Mountaineer.) ‘W. H. J. Bowey, editor of the River- ton Chronicle, was in the city on busi- ness, but the big boob never came into ‘The Mountaineer office to tell us what the governor of North Carolina said to the governor of South Carolina. We know not what came over the man,| but we ain't scared of neither a puri- tanical county attorne; nor a satanical sheriff. A Lailies’ Band. (Sheridan Post.) The first steps in the organization of a ladies’ band were taken yesterday and the services of J. S. Joyce were secured as director. Mr, Joyce is one of the finest musicians and band lead- ers in northern Wyoming and his sup- port speaks well for the prospects of the organization. The tentative plans are to incuude brass and reed instru- ments, also the cello and bass violin, and while no definite plans have been outlined, it is understood that the or- ganization is planning on several re- citals later in the season. “I believe that this is the first ladies’ band which has ever been organized in Sheridan and I personally am lbok- ing forward to an excellent organiza- tion, The women of this city have| much musical talent and it will be the purpose of the band to bring out this latent talent," declared Director Joyce. To Build Elevator, (Riverton Review) Another ‘grain elevator will soon be under construction in Riverton ac- cording to B Wimpenny and son Clarence. Wimpenny of the Riverton Hide, Wool and Fur company, who are engineering the undertaking. Tho structure will be erected at the north end of the present warehouse along the C. & N. W. tracks, a portion of which will have to be removed to af- ford sufficient room. The grain business of the firm has grown to such enormous proportions that it has gotten beyond the point }of ecofioniy in handling without the aid of machinery. The elevator will have a storage ca- pacity of 14,000 bushels and while this is greater than needed for the company’s personal business, they de- cided it would be economical to build a structure large enough to meet the demands of many of their patrons and also be prepared for the certain future, Asks Heavy Damages. (Basin Republican) Suit was filed in district court this week by Josephine Brunk and Joseph F. Brunk against Eugene Preator, for damages arising out of an accident on November 16, last year, when a carj driven by Preator struck Josephine Brunk, ar 8-year-old girl, daughter of “Joseph F. Brunk of Liberty bench. accident happened near the Bronk home on the bench, while the child was in the road returning from school. The suit filed by Josephine Brunk, through her father as next friend, is for $10,000 and alleges in the petition that by reason of the in- juries received the plaintiff will be permanently injured. The other suit for $2,000 was filed by Joseph F. Brunk and is for- damages, hospital bills and expenses incident to the ac- cident. Ready to Go. (Newcastle News-Journal) With the water line laid and the fuel tanks being placed, work on sec- tion 9-44-61 three miles south of New- castle on what is known as the How- ell lease will be begun as soon as the rig, a National, is erected.

Wheeler is the field thanager. A Mighty Hunter. (Northern Wyoming Herald) ,Last Friday, William Rowley, hunter and trapper employed by the biological survey, department of agri- culture, temporarily located at the | Wapiti Ranger station, accompanied jby Dad (1. C.) Spencer, brought down one of the several mountain lions working in the Shoshone state’ game preserve. Sunday, Mr. Rowley, with his three very capable dogs, succeed- ed in bagging three more and one yesterday, making five to his credit within five days. R. O. Myers of the local forestry office was on Elk Fork Sunday after- noon, participating in the lion chase, and it was the first time he has had the privilege of seeing such a mag- nificent lot of game, estimating ap- |proximately 275 to 300 head of elk |and deer in that section. The car- cass of an elk was found, which had | just been killed by ‘one of these | treacherous game destroyers. There is plenty of feed on the range |for the game and they are very fat and in an excellent condition, and every lion that is brought to account | for their treacherous deeds will cer- tainly save many elk, which should be appreciated by all sportsmen. In view of the 1,200 to 1,400 head of game that was in that same fo- cality just two yearg ago, so many of which perished from the dreadful early winter following it i= certainly time that every possible effort is put forth to save our ‘game from being destroyed entirely. Mr. Rowley has captured” six” lon® on the Shoshone national forest this winter, thus far, and is certainly to be congratulated for his good work in this_connection., “(Any reader can get the answer to any question by writing The Casper Daily Tribune Information Bureau, Frederic J.
