THE HORIZONS CLOUD

The speech of Premier Clemenceau of
France in which he tentatively announced
his position on the league of nations is the
first pronounced cloud to appear on the
peace conference horizon. Whether it will
be disspated into thin air or, gathering den
sity as it progresses, become the storm
cloud Of the conference remains to be seen
The discussions the address caused and the
apprehensions it aroused are serious, if the
developments since the pronouncement were
made are reliable criterion 1t is question
able if the premier spoke inadvisedly. There
is no reason to doubt that what he said was
the understanding reached among the
statesmen of Europe in the matter.
The occasion was an opportune one for
the declaration. The setting could not have
been more ideal. The premier had Just been
the recipient of an overwhelming vote of
confidence by the French chamber. Before
1t was taken the grizzed veteran declared
that if the deputies had any doubt about
what was desired the occasion was the time
to change leaders. He defed opposition, if
there was any, and received an endorsement
greater than that accorded Premier Lloyd
Der knew if it voted confidence in the pre-
mier he would be the dominating influence
of France at the peace table. The members,
speaking for the people, commissioned him
to execute their mandate. He will go to the
conference committed to league to en-
force peace, but rot to the creation of a
league of nations. The courtesies extended
to the guest are no criterion by which to
Judge the reception of the guest when he
ceases to be such and becomes a man of
diplomacy. Because the government and
the people welcomed him with every mani
festatiOn of joy does not prove that when
the stern affair of readjusting the world be-
comes the matter in hand the enthusiasm
of the people will be as spontaneous or so
extensive. Premier Clemenceau called atten-
ton to the fact that America got into the
war after France had endured untold suf-
ferings. 1t was the second time this matter
had been referred to in France, the other
occasion being the welcoming address of the
project of Paris to the president These ref
erences are not trivial matters, nor is their
repetition an accident. They are diplomatic
warning clouds.
Americans must not be misled What
America wants is not exactly what other ma
tons which paid greater penalty want We
have set our hands to the task of eliminat-
ing war, if possible, through the medium Of
Cancellation and compromise We must
therefore, be ready and willing to apply the
principles we profess at the peace table. We
cannot lay down ironclad rules and demand
acceptance without denying the very argu-
ments we make for peace. There must be
compromise and yielding. If the league of
nations is found impractical and not the ma
chinery of peace deemed best by other ma
tions America can do nothing but yield with
all grace and join hands with those who de-
sire some other form If this is done the
storm cloud will dissipate. If it is not done
the cloud will thicken and darken until it
bursts in all its fury.

NO WONDER MANY ARE KILLED.

From Wesleyan Christian Advocate.
The Central of Georgia Railway has been
making test of the matter and the Dawson
News reports for that city as follows: "On
the Main street crossing in Dawson 500 au-
tomobles passed in twelve hours. Of this
number only eleven stopped before crossing
the railroad, 81 drivers of cars looked one
war, 45 looked both ways before crossing the
tracks and 372 crossed without looking eth
er way" 1t is small wonder that three are
CO monv artomohile accidents on grade
crossings OF The railroads. And the railroads
hear not the greater part of the blame for
accidents

AS token of their appreciation of the
work he has done for his town and county
the Triton chamber of commerce has pre-
scented to Editor John L. Herring, of the
Gazette, a handsome silver loving cup. 1t
is an honor richly deserved and worthily
bestowed. People of any town are fortunate
to have among them an editor like J ohm Her
ring, and equally fortunate is an editor who
labors among people like those of Triton.
The presentation of the loving cup was a
very pretty and happy incident

the usual channels of diplomacy. Taking the
censorship off the peace conference news
does not meet this end. 1t only gives the
people in the world information concerning
the specific treaty in process of construction.
There is nothing in such freedom of news to
prevent any nation from entering into alli-
ances with other nations without giving the
governments except those concerned hint
of what is being done.

1t doesn't help allay bolshevism nor re-
strain socialism for the king of England and
the president of the United States to dine
at a table groaning under the weight of ff-
teen million dollars worth of gold dishes. 1t
is not the best of judgment to exhibit such
regal splendor and fiaunt such vast wealth
in the face of the world in times like these.
The people are sick and tired of show, of
needless extravaganza, of the glitter of tin
sci in high places, and want pace, simplicity
and equality.

NEW COYOTE POISON EEEECrlvh

II. A.N- |aHaN HH.-.Ha a4HL. +
1t was brought out at the meeting
Of the stockmen at Elko Monday by
the address Of the Federal hunters
that the Government has evolved q
new poison for the coyote that is
proving to be very effective. The
basis is strychnine. from which the
bitter taste has been eliminated. and
poison bats containing this poison
are taken readily By the coyote, the
most dificulf animal to trap or poi
son on the range. The great draw
back Of the old style strychnine poi
son bait was that the coyote could
taste the bitter s~trychnine and would
spit 1t out immediately on picking 1t
up. but the new poison being taste
less IL as effective a. ever.
