has been suggested as a remedy.
But to this there are two objec-
tions. In the first place the popu-
ton of the country is so turbulent
and SO alien to our own population
that it would be a source of weak
ness rather than strength. 1t is
furthermore possible that the two
contending factions would settle
their differences and offer united
resistance to the American forces.
While, of course, they could not
Withstand the troops of the United
States in the open country, they
might by retiring to the noun
tains in the interior hold out until
many American soldiers had fallen
victims either to the shots of the
enemy or to diseases common in
that tropical climate.
However, the insurgents should
not be allowed to continue their
course of aggression and insult.
Whatever the cost may be, they
sohuld be'subjected to the disci-
pline they SO greatly need.-Den-
yer Republican.

The decision of the Hague arbi-
tration tribunal that the allied pow
ers are entitled to preferential treat
ment in the payment of indemnity
by the government of Venezuela is
not in accordance with American
opinion. Our statesmen have tax
en- the position that nations that
did not resort to force for the set
Element of their claims should not
be placed at a disadvantage as COM
pared with those that made show
of force. The Hague tribunal, on
the other hand, seems to have con-
sidered that it was called upon to
consider matters as they stood on
the day the question was submit
ted to it for action, at which time
certain powers were demaning
their dues by force of arms, while
other powers were using only
peaceful influences. = Pue b ! o

The Colorado State Teachers as.

The Colorado State Teachers as
sociation has made an appeal to
parents, editors, teachers preachers
and public officials asking for the
cooperation of these and all other
classes in the efforts which the as
sociation is making to suppress
)awlessness among young people in
the schools. Some of the acts com
planned of and which it is sought
to suppress in the future are re-
ferred to in detail as follows: The
treatment of school and parental
authority with insolence and con-
tempt when it is opposed to the
carrying out of student ideas of
,sfun'' or whims born of the mob
spirit. Riotous conduct on the
street, in public conveyances, the
atres, public halls and other public
places in utter disregard Of the
rights OF Others and of the refine
inents of demeanor that should
characterize ladies and gentlemen.
apparently :under the assumption
that membership in educational in
stitutions jsstities such conduct.

the TROUBLE h SAN DoMlGo.

The trouble which has arisen
between the San Domingo insur-
gents and the United States may
lead to serious complications, in
volving the employment of Ameri-
can marines or soldiers to restore
order and vindicate the rights Of
Americans residing in that country.
1t is evident from the defiant
course pursued in one or two in
stances that the insurgents have
little respect for the authority of
the United States and little dispo-
sition to pay proper regard to the
obligations they are under to
foreigners.
Rather than tolerate. such con-
duet the government should send
an adequate force to the scene of
the trouble and compel the San
Domingo people to keep the peace.
Possibly it wonld require the EN-
ployment of large force to reduce
the Insurgents to submission; and
it seems that the situation is com
plicated by the fact that neither Of
the contending factions is for any
great length of time in the ascen-
dancy. To punish the insurgents
might encourage the adherents of
the government party to believe
that they We're licensed to do as
they pleased. In that case whole
some chastisement would have to
be administered to them in turn
