to a very grand person. Would you like to hear it,"
"Of course we would" said Jack and Evelyn. do tell it to us this even
ing" SO daddy began a follows:
" Having been made into a beautiful crown shaped pin Of superb pearls
said the pin, II ws put into a show case in a very beautiful jewelry shop
People would notice me above all other pins i'm the ae and pick m o out as
being by far the most beautifully set pin. All the pearls which belonged to
me were vay, very lovely ones. But 7 was so expensive that people could
just look 1T M and could not afford to buy me- .
"The' jeweRr was o proud OF me that he really did not care whether /
was sold or not for my beauty attracted 10 much attention that 1t raj a help
to his business. You see, people would ask one another If they had seen me-
and If they hadn't they would come right to the shop to look at m Then,
though they didn't buy me-, they would be sreto buy something else in the
shop
"But at last a marvellous carriage drove up before the door. 1t was drawn
by four horses, and there were two fine coachmen and two very pompous
looking footmen sitting up o. top Of the carriage.
The jewMer was all in a 6utter Never before had he seen such a won
derful carriage. And out Of it stepped a very handsomely dressed lady with
a lady O. either side Of her, who both guarded her very carefully.
"'"rhe queen-the queen has CON to nay little shop! cried the excited
jeweler, and all the other shoppers stood by and made low bows
"But I didn't bow. I didn't think a crown need bow.
"The queen had heard OF me, and she had come Il buy me-. The jeweler,
with trembling fingers, fastened me in my little blue velvet box, and OF !
went carried by the queen.
when we reached the palace I felt very much at home for everything

that first evening when I a wor by the queen with 0 many other ex
quidte jewels.
"tOh, but such times as I did have! The court dinners and balls and e.
captions were 70 dazzling, and I adored them. But best of all, I loved the
parades and seeing all the crowds Of people cheer and wave their handker'

pointment." The chief concern OF our
Government now should be to see a
government established in Mexico
which will be satisfactory to her peo-
pie and will insure peace. When the
best attainable is set up "the United
States would not be justified in with
holding recognition, however much we
may disaprove of the method by which
1t was originally constituted"
In all this that reflects uon the past
and relates to the present situation
throws little light upon what is to be
really done to bring about the desired
result of avoiding forcible interview
ton and promoting the establishment
of a government in Mexico which shall
be a credit to its people and insure
peace with honor. 1t is to find that
out that the suggestion is made of a
commission to inquire into the situa-
tion, after this year of turmoil, con-
fused counsels and "watchful wait
ing" But what is the chance of the
success of such a mission as is pro-
posed? A great deal has been learned
about the Mexican people in this last
year which was not generally known
before and Of which the Administra-
ton at Washington seemed to have an
inadequate conception. The "enlight-
ened element" which it was hoped to
arouse to the support of an effort to
bring about q stable government and
insure a appears to be relatively
small n to be divided in it's al
legiance between the Huerta and the
Carranza factions. Neither of these
can now be recognized without enrag-
ing the other, and there is no such
thing as recognizing both. Can this
enlightened element be induced to
act independently of both, if neither
is recognized? Can they in any way
be brought together after the antagon-
ism that has been fomented for a
year? Can either or both Of the lead
ers be induced to retire from the con-
fict and leave a clear field for Ameri-
can peace commissioners to prepare
the way for constitutional govern
ment?
1t is to be feared that the '"high
sense of International morality" in
VOWED in this will not work out for
practical results any better than it
has in the Presidents plan. It would
have stood a much better chance at
the beginning than after what has
been happening for nearly a year. If
such a commission as Mr.. Straus pro-
poses-which he thinks would be able
to go to Mexico and to report within
thirty days, so as to enable our Gov
eminent to act with wisdom and
avoid any unforeseen necessity OF be-
ing suddenly forced to act under an
aroused indignation and hasty and
ill-guided impulse"-should undertake
such a task, what is likely to be the
result? Could it recognize Huerta and
Carranza or either of them so far as
to be allowed to conduct their in
quiries to any useful effect? Would
the leaders Of either faction welcome
such an investigation or insure, to the
investigators the "a of obtaining
the information sought and exercising
the desired influence to clear the way
for constitutional government which
would find general support? Would

Straus on the Mexican Problem

New York Journal Of Commerce:
MI. Oscar Straus, whose ability and
experience in diplomacy are well
known, in an interview published in
the Herald" yesterday. is quoted as
suggesting, as a preliminary to me
solution of the problem of dealing with
Mexico, the selection of a. commission
Of five or seven men ito investigate
present conditions and ascertain the
enlightened public opinion Of leading
men of affairs in Mexico; to learn
what may be the most practical and
best for the future welfare Of our sis
ter Republic" These men, he said,
should be "men Of experience in in
ternatioaal affairs and of great abil-
ity, Who should go to Mexico with
their minds free and make their in
designations with the slightest pos
sible delay and report their findings
and recommendations to the Presi-
dent. This, he thinks, would com
mand universal respect and instead of
leading to armed intervention, would
prove to be the only course that would
find a solution by which that final re-
sort would be avoided" He further
believes that it Woul hav "a quiet
ing effect throughout Mexico" give as
surance of "a fair and impartial re-

eminent and "tend to a solution in
| accordance with the best interests Of
the Mexican people and international
obligations" Present conditions of
bloodshed and anarchy, he declares,

! Mexico to put her house in order or
let other powers take such a course,
not in conflict with our interests, as
they decide upon for the protection
of their nationals"
l. In his statements preliminary to
this suggestion Mr.. Straus was not
disposed to criticise the course here
tofore pursued by the administration.
Like most other people, he greatly
approved the Presidents effort to
avoid the resort to force, but he clear
ly implied doubt as to the wisdom of
| the manner in which this effort has
been conducted. so long as recogni-
ton is withheld from one side or the
| other" he says ito that extent the So
called Constitutionalists are encour-
aged and civil war will continue" and
mo one can foretell the end, other
than a succession of revolutions and a
prolonged and endless status OF blood
shed and anarchy" Recognizing the
high sense OF international morality
that induced the president to refuse
recognition Of Huerta and his gov
eminent, his desire to see a govern
ment established in Mexico which
would insure stability n be a credit
to it's people, sustained by the hope
that the more enlightened element
among them would be aroused "tt
establish a government which wollt
insure peace with honor" Mr.. Straus
concludes that this hope has failed OF
realization which, he says, ttis MOI

AusTRIA's BACHELOR TAX.

of Austria which has just been passed
makes the bachelors pay for their sin
Eleness. 1t is required that such per-
sons, having nobody depending upon
them, will have to pay Is per cent
additional on the amount Of their in

on other to provide for, such as mar
ried persons without children, will be
required to pay an additional 10 per
cent. 81
Those in this country who are not
30 fortunate as to be in the income
faxpaying class may sympathize with
their even less fortunate fellowmen IN
Austria. Under the old law the tax be-
gan upon incomes as small as S240 a

THE MooRHEAp cANNERY.


Moorhead is to be congratulated on
