The United to give the powers that be time to arrange y credit to carry Germany she will be able to resume foreign pay- s under her treaty obligations. This announcement has dulled for the moratorium in those quarters were debt cancellation is strongly urged. Many American and most foreign banks that have loaned money to Euro- pean count and interests feel that they would be surer to get their interest and, eventually, their' principal if the American Government would cancel the public debts. In other words, they want debts i a long mora is out for t ec ar; point b where es the United States to give the Europeans enough taxpayers' cash to pay the private lenders. How ever, the nouncement will meet with the favor of the general public. There is not a reason in th world why the United States should further reduce the obligations of those who borrowed cash that was raised through borrowings from the American people—money that the United States will have to pay whether or not she collects from those to whom she loaned it. There is only one thing in the world that would justify the cancellation of the war debts, or their further reduction, and that would be a dem ation of inak to pay them. ALASKA BEARS IN ADVERTISING TUNT. While all Alaskans join in admiring those Alaska black bears in Virginia that attempted to give the East an object lesson on the fighting proclivities of Alaska bear, we are all really glad they were mot the great Alaska brown bears that went on a ram- page. If they had been brown bears that enlisted to fight the Virginia populace the casualty list would probably have been different. Those three men that were “slapped and clawed” would un- doubtedly have been among the dead However, our hats off to the bears! They did their best to make those who insist that Alaska bears are fit for cozy pets and ought to be pro- tected by the majesty of the law realize their mistake. AND THE PREACHER! WILL HAYS Some years ago when Wayne Wheeler was the super-censor and power behind the throne in American Government he adopted, to make his dictatorship more secure, the custom of paying Senators and Representatives, whose votes he would want for proposed legislation, honoraria for making dry speeches throughout the country. Among those on the Anti-Saloon League payroll were Sena- tor Jones of Washington and others. Mr. Wheeler also caused honoraria to be paid minister to make dry speeches among the churches where they were supposed to say a good word when possible for the Anti-Saloon League and Mr. Wheeler, its dictator. his Y Of that to the| the enthusiasm ! m and common sense and less rigermarole ted by busybo the downward trend of prices for lands stop no one knows, of course, but and ks will who guess it there i will follow clc depression, and those those rst 1l reap bounteous rewards.

That is tempering justice as a prisoner of al y aratoga’s Renaissance. (New York Herald Tribune.) | enty-five years ago Saratoga Springs was the | fashionable summer resort of the United States. ! Any one with literary, social or political prestige to maintain or cultivate, high society and the demi- |monde made it & point to be seen there at some | time ring the grand season. Great slaveholders |from the Carolinas and Virginia rolled in with their equipages for the Fourth of July opening. The quality of New York, Philadelphia and Boston as- sembled, and from the first July balls until Sep- tember the waters of Congress Spring had to’' com- s pete as well as they could with old world vintages equally supercharged with carbonic acid gas. The rise of Newport, impoverishment of great | Southern families after the Civil War, as well as ‘mcreasmg safety and comfort of trans-Atlantic crossings, withdrew so many fashionables that Sara- toga entered into social decline in later Vietorian | times. 1 ‘The opportunity for creating a great modern health resort at Saratoga, comparable to Nauheim, | Kissingen, Wiesbaden or Vichy, was finally recog- |nized and acted upon by the State in 1909. Since |then several commissions and the State Conservation Department have been at work creating a reserva- tion which now embraces more than a thousand |lacres and more than a hundred springs or wells. Two large bathing establishments and many other lesser improvements have been instituted since the tate began its reclamation of the Springs twenty- lodd years ago. i The present Saratoga Springs Commission, ap- | pointed last summer, plans to spend $75,000 in land- scaping the reservation, to remodel the Washington |Baths and to enforce the European system of medi- cal supervision. A drink hall, to cost $900,000, is pro- posed in their general project calling for a total |expenditure of more than two million dollars. In short, the State is planning.to do for one of the {finest spas in the world what Europeans undertook for even mediocre ones generations ago. White House “Leaks.” (New York Times.) It is a little startling to read that the Chief of |the Secret Service has been called in to investigate so-called news “leaks” at the White House, espe- |cially as the leaks themselves do not apear to have }been of a very serious character. The story, for in- ;s(nnce. about the Negro janitor who told White House carpenters to go easy on their hammering, because “the President has déclared a moratorium jon nois2” adds to the gayety of nations without jdoing anybody any harm. If the White House secretariat, however, wishes to keep tabs on all those in the White House employ, it certainly has the right to do so. | But when it is announced that in the future ‘all inews about the President and his household is to come only from “stated official sources,” we have our doubts. Good taste must always be an im- portant part of good journalism. The correspondent in Washington who confines himself to official |sources for his information might be replaced by a messenger boy. the truth. If official sources, as sometimes hap- (pens, are unwilling to give him the truth, he is in |duty bound to endeavor to get it elsewhere. With- jout this duty, political journalism would be robbed of much of its value. Such well established tenets of journalistic ethics, achieved after many a strug- gle, cannot be overthrown. | Canned Imon.

Today these same baseball men are calling the Middle Atlantic “A Miracle League.” “The League Fourth of July,” won't last to the Daily’s friends, told him when the season opened in May. July 10th, the second half of the schedule began—and there were 12 clubs still in the race. Good sportsmanship in the league towns and night baseball have put the league over, Daily says. The league the only 12-club cir cuit in existence is composed of Cumberland, Md.; Charleston, W. Va.; Beckley, W. Va.; Parkersburg, W. Va.; Scottdale, Pa.; Fairmount, W. Va.; Johnstown, Pa.; Clarksburg, W. Va; Huntington, W. Va; Wheeling, W. Va.; Charleroi, Pa.; and Altoona, Pa. Jeanette, Pa., a town of 15,000, surrendered its franchise soon after the season began and the team was shifted to Altoona. Financial diffi- culties were encountered in Altoona and the club has been offered for transfer. Several cities, including Steuben- ville, O., are understood to be dick- ering for the berth, Hagertown; Md., another team at the post when the season started, surren- dered its franchise to Parkersburg. - R WICHITA GRAIN RESERVE CUT HALF BY FARM BOARD WICHITA, Kas., July 20.—Wheat held in storage here last winter by the Federal Farm Board, amounting to more than 2,000,000 bushels, had been reducsd to 1,- 000,000 bushels by June 1, W. E. Marshall of the Hall-Baker Grain Company said. Hall-Baker is the Wichita representative of the board. Shipments from Wichita were consigned to Kansas City and points beyond. —e,———— AIDS 10-GALLON EATS SHERIDAN, Wyo.—Out here in the great open spaces where men are men and dudes wear ten-gallon hats, awnings in front of stores must be six and a half-feet high to provide. room for high-heeled cowboys with tall sombreros.

The latter remained in second place, 57 points ahead of Jack Kearney, who, how- ever, hasn't played in some two | weeks. Big Mac' MacSpadden pounded his way into fifth place, passing both Worth and Manning. Worth dropped to sixth and Manning to seventh. Tad Keaton was the only newcomer to make his bow inside the .300 circle. Bill, Jack and Pete Schmitz and Little Mac' MacSpad- !den were chief ground gainers.
