The people Jook upon it as a long step toward permanent peace and the first link in the chain of understanding in Far Eastern matters, as well as the entering wedge in ultimate disarmament. They approve the, treaty and the Republican majority S pane obeying the will of the people in support- ing it. In the senate there are a number of patriotic Demo- crats who will not be guided by political or party con- siderations, nor will they countenance the attitude of machine Democrats toward Senator Underwood. They will support the treaty for confirmation. Senator Underwood pursues the even tenor of his way and the attempts of his colleagues to coerce him into action that would place him in false light before the country will avail nothing. Mr. Underwood is a high minded, sincere and patriotic statesman and in ne sense a demagogue seeking party advantage or po- litical revenge. He may be depended upon to stand four square for the four-power treaty and his con- stituency will honor him for it. 2 SESE ER A MOMENTOUS DECISION. “Shall society have the power to say arbitrarily, from a purely economic standpoint who shall or who shall not have the right to bear children?” asks the Hartford Times.’ “That question is likely to be ar- gued rather freely, as result of the decision of the Colorado judge who has given a Denver mother until January to submit to an operation which will make it impossible for her ever again to become a mother, un- der penalty of having her five undernourished and poorly cared for children taken away from her if zhe refuses. This ruling was given after a physician had testified concerning conditions in the woman's ho end had suggested that conditions would be remedie if the woman could bear no more children. The judge seized upon the suggestion and turned it into a court decision. “Certainly the theory that it is the right of society thus to protect itself against the consequences of pov- erty is brand new and startling. Birth control advo- cates will immediately say that if they are permitted to have their way they will solve the problem by per- mitting even the ignorant poor to control the size of their families, thus reducing poverty. But it may be doubted if even birth control advocates will urge that the state should be given an arbitrary right to act in such cases for purely econor.ic reasons. “Certainty if the state is going to assume any such rights it is hard to see how it is going to keep the bars i in the i the first and the greatest national park in itey: All of these things have conspired to induce the president to take a summer vacation so as to fit ith the several occurrences. scamuiad Hill of Wyoming, Commissioner of Immigration looking the situation over has undertaken to arrange celebration at a date immediately before or ‘sedate following Frontier so the president ean attend the two Wyoming affairs while on his way west to undertake his Alaska excursion. : Mr. Hill has interested Secretary Fall of the inse- rior department and Superintendent Albright of Yel- lowstone park, in the proposed visit of the president and is now urging western members of congress and senators to insist that the president make his vaca- tion a real one and see things within the domain he never as yet viewed. ew youttog aoa be delighted to play host to Mr. Harding, and she can offer him real entertainment. We have had in times past Roosevelt and Taft with us on different occasions and they never ceased to wonder at the many marvelous thirgs they found in Wyoming. By all means let's parties next summer. have Mr. Harding at our two ae Ba aes e NOT A THING DOING. Director Dawes has assaulted one of rights of congress and the wail that is ascending to high heaven is horrible to hear. He has abolished the free distribution of seeds. Had he abolished the con- gressional payroll, removed the Goddess of Liberty from the dome of the capitol, hauled down the Amer- ican flag, taken away the robes from the supreme court or the gavel from the speaker, there would not be half the fuss kicked up. But to paralyze an an- cient and honorable graft such as free garden seeds for the agricultural block is treason—even in the name of economy. The same thing has been attempted before, but somehow when spring came the seeds came also. Con- gress has always found a way to gladden the heart of the farmer and in the present instance, in spite of Dawes and economy, the ingenuity of congress may be depended upon. And when we get the garden spaded up next April we shall expect to find the well- known seed packages in our postoffice box with the well-remembered congressional frank of our favorite congressman affixed thereto. The constitution may wither and die, the palladium of our liberties may crumble to dust, the government at Washington become only a memory to the oldest inhabitant, but free garden seeds will go on forever. } the vested ROLLING THE GOLOSHES. The snowfall has brought out the goloshes and we are uncertain whether to howl about it or let nature and the flapper take their respective courses. It ap- pears that they not only continue to wear them un- buckled but in many instances rolled which helps some in eliminating the music. If the manufacturers would only make them to fit thin legs, thick legs and all the other kinds of legs possibly the casual ob- server would have a better report to make and less complaint of the ungraceful figure young ladies pre- sent in crossing the street. But winter cannot last always and spring is bound to come back when the flowers bloom and the goloshes are laid aside. us ESCAPING TAXATION. up against birth controllists in their campaign for per- mitting by voluntary action what the Denver judge wants to accomplish by force. It will occur to most observers that the judge has held his own responsi- bilities almost as lightly as he seems to believe the mother has held hers with reference to caring for her family.’’ So SR eee THE BIGNESS OF IT. “The signing of the naval limitation agreement marks something new in human history,” -says the New York Tribune. “It concretely introduces into in- ternational relations principles that three years ago or uven three months ago were deemed impossible of realization. “Of secondary consequence is the particular ratio of strength approved. What is of the greatest sig- nificance is the fact that there is any ratic, Fix your mind on this. Consider some of the implications. It is’ recognized that one nation may legitimately take notice of what another is doing. The domain of the common concern is thus immensely enlarged. Here- tofore each nation has assumed that what it did in the way of arming itself was exclusively its own af- fair; that no questions could be asked; that it was justified in resenting anything that even hinted at re- straint of its liberty of action. “This doctrine is scrapped. In its place is estab- lished the one that the naval program of one country is the proper business of all. Cast down is the arti- ficial logical barrier which separated nations one from another and inevitably led to competition in arma- ments. Henceforward, in regard to armies as well as navies, it will be possible for one country-to ask an- other, ‘Why your zeal in weapon-making?’ It is our right to take note of the fact. Here is a wholesome novelty in international law, and the seed planted at Washington will multiply. National independence re- mains unimpaired, but it must face its responsibilities with more regard for realities. ‘Another innovation is of almost equal importance —namely, that one nation can trust the word of an- other with respect to matters of the most delicate na- ture. The Hughes agesement takes for granted that Great Britain and Japan will in good faith be true to the bargain they have signed. No machinery of mu- tual espionage is provided for. None is deemed neces- sary. It is believed, and rightfully so, that no one of the.signers will depart from the agreement. “Such confidence, a confidence that asks for no hostages, is something new in human annals, and now, as always, trust begets trust. The food of confidence is confidence. We have a right to think that the habit of nations of watching one another out-of suspicious eyes will weaken. When suspicion is dead there will be foundations for enduring peace. “The bigness of the work done at Washington is not yet adequately appreciated. Time is needed to slow it in true perspective. If there ever is a uni- versal annual holiday December 14 will have high claims to world-wide recognition. Yet some restricted souls study the terms of the compact to see whether or not they can torture from it an interpretation that there is not perfect equivalency of self-denial.” ee THE CHRISTMAS CANDLE. The old warning to have care about the lighted can- dies on the Christmas tree will go with as little heed as the warning to look out for the fireworks on July 4th. Upon the anniversary of each of these holidays a number of painful accidents occur in which the lives Secretary Mellon estimates that there is approxi- mately $10,000,000,000 invested in tax-exempt secu- rities. Were that huge amount to be subject to in- come taxes and surtaxes, there would be a tremen- dous increase in .b2 federal revenue, with a more equitabl< distribation of the tax burden. President Harding has started the movement to bring all of that wealth within the tax laws by advocating a constitu- tional amendment that will prohibit the issue of tax- exempt securities. It is probable that his recom- mendation will receive the early attention of con- gress, and it may be that before the present session adjourns the states will have presented to them for ratification an amendment along the lines suggested. RESIS NOT FOOLING UNDERWOOD. It is entirely characteristic of the Democratic lead- ers of the minority in the senate to desire to block the four-power treaty when it comes on for ratifica- tion. It is also characteristic of them to appeal to and even threaten Senator Underwood, the Demo- cratic member of the American delegation, to stultify himself as an American citizen and a member of the conference. The only argument, or rather the only excuse offered is the defeat of the league of nations proposal by the senate Republicans as presented by Mr. Wilson. The Pacific treaty is looked upon as a Republican measure and the league as a Democratic measure and both therefore subject to the ordina’ rele an politics. In neither case can tt view Neither the treaty nor the league of little ones, and sometimes of adults, are sacrificed by carelessness. It is so easy to believe that no acci- dent could happen to our Christmas tree, our children are so careful; or our children know all about fire- works and they are extremely cautious. Yet the ac- cident occurs and the sacrifice must be borne. And we don’t know what can be done about it. Warnings are even now going out from newspapers, fire departments, police departments, insurance com- panies and many other well-intentioned people and authorities who realize the danger that lurks in the nnocent litthe wax candle. They may mean the sav- ing of some lives and property. The hope always is that they will obviate all untoward accidents. But on the day following the newspapers will contain ac- counts of the usual number of misfortunes. WORKS BOTH WAYS. There is an old saying about “His word as good as his bond.” The Republican administration is turning the maxim around. The promise of the Republican party was given to try to bring bonds back to par. The market price of bonds is now between 98 cents and a dollar. The bonds have become as good as the Republican promise, and much sooner than anybody expected. See See If the prohibition department of these United States of America desires the newspaper jokes on the sub- j cut out, this same department must first cease to furnish the inspiration for the jokes. ‘Mr. Reynolds says, “Today, when voice is presented and on that the im- Porter puts his value. the credit that they are entitle> to—) goods that is known in in the average case are worth a little ; less, perhaps, than the paper on which they are printed.
