MEMBERSHIP drive for the purpose of en- rolling eligibles upon the roster of George W.| Vroman Post No. 2, American Legion, begins| today. A complete change in policies of adminis-| tration has made the post a desirable one with| which to fraternize and it should become not only the largest and most important in the state, but the most influential for the good of veterans of the| ‘World War. “ An organization of this character is good only as its aims and objects are good and for the right- eous and proper benefit of its members and (or) comrades wherever they are. This seems to be| the spirit that governs the post under its present | officers and enthusiastic members. To be of real service, to give and not to take, to in no sense ~trade upon the services rendered the common ‘country in the past and to demand nothing be- ‘yond the rewards good citizenship and obedience to the laws deserve. ~ It is to be hoped that the veterans will enter nto the work with their usual vim and induce “al of their old comrades to come into the fold, make one great big strong organization, and| ead their efforts and intelligence to the end that) its administration be maintained and supported | Joyally and without discord. Tet us have a Legion post in Casper which far mishes a model for this department. The talent and ability exists within the post and| gome of its members have already gone far in the state and national organizations. Why not send them and others even farther? aeuce First, get a big, strong and enthusiastic local Y post. The other things will follow. Gubernatorial Succession. E FATHEBS of the constitution of this state were wise men and broad of view for their day, but in framing the organic law they digressed from the usual and accepted and fixed the succes- sion to the governorship in the exigency of ab- sence, death, removal or resignation, upon the sec- retary of state. This was done in a day when the duties of the secretary by the nature of things were light. The vision of the fathers could not foresee that after thirty years the office of the secretary would be one of the ost important in the government and that official one of its hardest working members. ‘And in such times as he was called upon to act! as chief executive the load was more than he! could properly and with satisfaction to the pub- lic, bear. Forward looking men have felt for some years that the constitution should be amended to pro- vide for a lieutenant governor who should be by} ‘the same provision the president of the state sen ate, and upon whom the gubernatorial succession | * should fall. ; | t This opinion has been ened with the + several experiences had in the past when emerg- $ encies arose in the governorship. The desirability of such a change in the constitu-| tion would scarcely be questioned and the move in { that direction by Representative Jenkins of Sub- lette county is to be commended. | The matter could not, of course, be determined until the next general election, and then only by a favorable vote of the people. Wyoming has certainly reached a point in her history and attamed a prominence in the sister-| hood of states when the present defect, and it is nothing more or less than a defect, in her consti ‘ tation should be cured, and the succession de- termined in a manner satisfactory to the people ‘and without compelling one officer to discharge } the duties of two when emergency arrives. ane | perhaps she did.

That she died so young does not prove that she languished in exile, and because of exile, though It was very easy for anybody to die in the London of that day. That she had exalted rank in America is a pretty legend, but it must not be taken too seriously. As | the daughter of a chief she was as much of a| Princess as any Indian woman could be, and to ib A ; ‘ + | with patients of exactly the sort that can be helped | lated to the manipulations and thé murmurs, but win the favor in high society that she did’ her by suggestion, his one triumph was that a head-| that question, obviously unanswerable, is of neither ache stopped under his manipulations and his mur-| in manners must have been simple and therefore good. Presumably she had something of the adaptabil- ity to new conditions which has been shown so often, since, by American women with fairer skins who have crossed the same sea over which she went to her untimely death. | There are those now who would remove from the English grave where they have reposed for, several hundred years, what is left of the mortal remains of Pocahontas, bring the dust to America and give it new burial in an elaborate shrine. It would be a pity to disturb the dust, and a pity to undertake to create an unreasonable place for Pocahontas in American history. Let the whole affair alone. The legends are beautiful, as all fairy stories are beautiful. Shifting Views HEN the Fordney tariff bill was under debate it was the contention of the Democratic and free trade press and statesmen that the protective rates therein proposed would prove a boomerang in decreasing our export trade. Such a contention was, of course, in direct opposition to. Republican newspapers, statesmen and writers, in the 1915-16 period, It has always been Republican contention that if the American producer be assured of control of, his home market he con devote considerable more | time and energy to expanding his foreign markets; | that he cannot work abroad if he is in danger of having the foreign competition rob him of his home market; that control of the home market means maximum production and therefore lower unit cost, whereby sales abroad are aided; that the sur plus over home demand is the material with which foreign markets are built up. The present tariff law is rapidly proving the soundness of such a view. Despite all the dismal predictions which were made of losing foreign mar- | kets if the Fordney tariff became a law, exports continue to increase because American producers may now proceed with confidence. Nor have the| rates proved so high that foreigners are unable to get into our market. As the figures plainly show. The vast sums of money expended by importers in distributing propaganda to defeat the present law; the great sums spent in political campaigns for the election of Democrats who would continue the policy which under Democratic rule has al ways been ruinous when permitted free operation; the speeches and editorials condemning the policy —all appear to have been a dead loss, for the law is making good. And not a dead loss, either for they are serving to convince the American people, when confronted with the facts concerning the| operation of the policy, that its opponents did not know what they were talking about and the law having discredited them they will not be very for- ble opponents in the next presidential cam- sical amet Sincerity Is Not All ()PESETUNTIY has been afforded M. Coue to explain his theories and demonstrate his meth- ods in the presence of a large group of American psychiatrists, neurologists and general practition ers and these men trained in exactly the same sort of work done by him in his amateur way and have turned away from him in indifference. Most people who have met the French apothe cury in this country have regard for him person-| but a charlatan is none the less a charlatan because he is a sincere believer in the importance | and efficacy of whatever device he uses, and he is not much less a danger to the public because what he does is harmless in itself or because he docs | not exploit financially the credulity of his dupes. Nearly all successful charlatans have had more or less of faith in their own powers, and it is not because they take money from the people, but be cause in many cases they delay or prevent the prop- er treatment on which life often depends that they are dangerous, As the real doctors found out when they met, heard and watched M, Coue—and as they must have known already from what they had read about him—he is almost as little of a psychologist as of a physician. He knows concerning suggestion only what was to be expected in a man who boasts that he has read no books on the subjects, but he has picked up a little ruleof-thumb knowledge in the course of his dealings with people even more ignorant than himself in the depths of a French province, Among such people he has been able to command the faith which is the one basis of all his successes, and of his failures little or nothing has been said.

Not Markets But Dollar | Is the Trouble. | What are the exports which the American farmer has lost as a re- sult of the refusl of the Unitec States to become identified with Europes’ quarrels? What has become of the markets which league of na- tion advocates and those who wish this country to become identified ia European politics say must he “re- established” before the farmer can have a return of vrosperity? What is fact and what is fiction is all this propaganda? The following are from the rec- ords of the department of commerce: Exports of wheat: 1912, 61,654,523 bushels; 1913, 9,508,968 bushels; 1922 1922 (11 months) 13,524,273 barrels. Exports wheat flour; 1912, 10,621,-| 541 barrels; 1913 12,278,206 barrels; 1922 (11 months) 13,524,273 barrels, Exports corn: 1912, 30,979,900 bush- els; 1913, 45,286,759 bushels; 1922, 11 months) 158 850,964 bushels. Exports fresh pork: 1912, 2,607,659 pounds; 1913, 212,797,618 pounce; 1922 (11 months) 802,352 633 pounds, Eports lurd: 1912, 495,092,561 pounds; 1913, 536,179,645 pounds; 1922 (11 months) 688 345,188 pounds, ‘These are but a few of the major {tems of agricultural exports for pre- war periods when conditions were norma! compared with exports for the eleven months of 1922 upon which the department of commerce has com- plete figures. They show that the talk about the farmer having lost his Huropean markets because of America's iso‘ation since the war is pure fabrication. The trouble with American’ agri- culture is not lack of foreign mar | prior to the war. kets. The American farmer has had larger foreign markets since the war than in any perjod prior to the war. The trouble with American agricul-| turo is not the price recefved for farm products. In dollars and cents the average price of farm products today is bigher than it was in 1913 or 1912 The trouble with American agricul- ture today is the fact that the farm- er's dollar has a lower purchasing| power than it had prior to the war. It will not buy as much coal. It will not buy as much railroad transporta- tion. It will not buy as much general i t nor importance from any scientific point manufactured products as it did Secretary of Agriculture Wallace Ss pretty good authority upon farm matters, and he is authority for the statement that the purchasing power {of the farmer's collar is from 25 to 45 per cent less; now than it was in 1912, while the purchasing power of the dollar of the railroad employe the miner, and the average industrial worker is higher today than it was in 1913, Obviously, this situation cannot be remedied by America’s entering Eu- ropean politics. It is a domestic situa- tion to be bandied and remedied sole- ly by domestic legistation. What Europe does or does not do has noth- ing at all to do with the relatively low purchasing power of the Anreri- can farmer's dollar. Bad Manners in Criticism. Bad manners in literary criticism have become quite common and are as a rule, resorted to by those re viewers and critics who cannot man- age subtler metbods of annihilation. ‘The bludgeon and the brickbat have taken the place of the rapier. Not only ‘s this true but many readers look forward with delight to those exhibitions of buffoonery and abise, their idea of wit being hors:-play and their notion of disapproval being on the level of a kick.
