4 Very We'll! Let the cloth be woven
( for me at once!" she commanded.
/ So the imDostors set to work on
Miss Ldberty's new garments, putting
up two looms and appearing to be
busy at them day and night. They
demanded the finest silk and the best
gold, which they dropped in their
pockets But they had not the least
thing on the looms.
Il should like to know how far they
have got on with my new dress, j."
thought Miss Liberty, but she remem-
bered that whoever was stupid or un-
fit for office would not be able to see
it, SO she decided to have some one
else look for her. And she sent for
! the Chairman of the Committee on
, Foreign Affairs.
Go and find out how my new
clothes are getting along" she said.
SO the chairman went to the room
where the two impostors were sittlng
before their empty looms.
Dear meH' thought the puzzled
statesman. Il can see nothing" But
he did not say so.
LOOK at the texture of this mate
rial-and the color-was there ever
such beautiful red?" asked the first
impostor impudently pointing to the
looms which had nothing on them.
oh, It is lovely, most lovely" the
politician exclaimed hurriedly. for he
was afraid his constituents might

also that Miss Liberty should release
all their relatives who were in Jail, fer
good and sufficient reasons.
FINALLY, the garments were finished
and the weavers brought them to Miss
Liberty, who was to wear them for
the first time that day IN q patriotic
procession.
Here is the skirt" said the FIRST
impostor, is not the Grapery of the

Miss Liberty rubbed her eyes.

faces of the friends she had asked TO

final fitting, and they were all smiling

Then Miss Liberty went out and
joined the procession, walking under
a splendid canopy, and all the people
in the streets and the windows said
! How becoming are Miss Liberty's
new clothes, How beautiful her train

As THEN SEE IT: ALSO THE
RESULTS.

The New Mexico state corporation
commission is quite certain that re-
duction of passenger fares to three
cents would in nowise retard railroad
construction III this state.
other state corporation commits
sions have held the same way regard
Nug both passenger and freight tar
ifs, and the Interstate Commerce
commission has generally held with
them
Also labor Organizations have held
that wages could be increased indcfi-
nitely without affecting the credit and
therefore the enterprise Of the roads
The net result of it all has been that
for five years before the war came
practically not a mile of new railroad
was built. OF course. not mile has
been built since we entered the war,
except some short trackage ncces-
sary to reach timber or mines.
When the government took over the
roads, it was shown conclusvely that
the roads were practically bankrupt
About fifty thousand miles were in the
hands Of receivers. Stocks were un-
sought in the markets, even at less
than half the price of twenty years
ago. Bonds of others than the best
of the roads could not be marketed
and short time paper of the standard
systems was hawlled about at seven
per cent.
Still, in every instance, it was shown
that the roads could stand reductions
in both passenger and freight tariffs.
The fact that the roads showed such
reductions meant bankruptcy to them
received no consideration,
The whole thing was to be demon
stratcd by government operation at
time when every road was taxed to its
utmost capacity. Passenger rates
were raised everywhere-even in New
Mexico through the sleeping car priv
iIege and the withdrawal of bargains
in mileage books.
bNl WIN All VI lltSt tOUtlllp llt
government lost about two hundred
and fifty million dollars on operating
expenses alone to say nothing Of APP
proximatcly a billion dollars which
must be paid for rental of the roads.
The New Mexico corporation COM
mission is Just as logical and just as
well-nformed as were the other state
commissions and the Interstate Com
merce commission and the labor or
CARNATIONS who said the roads would
not be hurt by reductions in income
or by Increase of expenses.
But facts are rather hard things to
brush aside--even for the sake of Gre
ating a little prejudice in New Mexico
against a democratic administration
because it refused to reduce the pas
senger rates of this state to the three
cent basis of the eastern states.
What the Journal wants is oppor-
tunty in this after-the-w period for
the construction of new roads neccs-
sary for the development of this state.

GERMANY MUST BE PRESERVED.


Tho general assembly elected for
the formation of a constitution for
what was the German empire is now
in session What it will do cannot be
guessed with certainty but there is
little doubt that the Germans will os-
tablish for themselves an orderly GOV
eminent. Also it is hardly probable
that The delegates will spend months
in debating futile theories, as did the
liberals in 1919.
\ Bolsheyist revolution in Germany
now would be a menace to world JUS
tice and permanent peace. 1t might
be a satisfying spectacle to the war
sore allies to watch the peasant and
the proletariat turn and spoil the pail
aces of the overords; but it would
neither make for a sane German de-
mocracy nor restore the wreck made
by an insane German autocracy.
The advice of Raoul Pcret, the celc-
brated French statesman and econ
omist, that Germany be not permitted
to bankrupt herself. is good. AS he
pointed out in his address to the
chamber of deputies, Germany must
not be allowed to put herself in a
position where she cannot pay for the
ruin she has wrought by her own de-
lberate acts
While the allies and the United
States will not attempt to dictate the
kind of government the German peo-
pie should have, they doubtless would
feel perfectly justified in insisting that
any government shall be an orderly
one and that it shall not be handed
over to the war caste.
Germany must be required to pay
for the ruin worked by her during her
war debauch. The payment must be-
gin at once. and not after another
debauch of insurrection. The things
the Germans have stolen from their
neighbors, from silk looms to door
knobs, must be restored The coal

mines, and Immediately.
1t is estimated that it will take from
three to five years to repair the
wrecked coal and iron mines in Bel
gium and France; and meanwhile it
will require the entire output of tho
German mines to make good to Bel
GUM and France the normal product
of these wrecked mines Moreover,
the repayment of the coal and iron
stolen from Belgium and France viii
require another four years output
from the German mines.
In other words. let Germany learn
the lesson well that when she was
spelling French and Belgium property
she was spelling her own prosperity,
not theirs. That She is to stand the
financial loss, not them. To make
good damages done by her own acts,
all the property of Germany is chattel-
mortgaged to civilization. and Ger
many must be put under bond

astonished to learn that a time came
when Miss Liberty decided they We're
old-fashioned and that she must have
some new ones at once.
And while She was in this state of
discomfort two imposters, who gave
themselves out as weavers, came to
the land of her birth and said they
knew how to manufacture the most
beautiful cloth imaginable and to
fashion it into, the most charming
gowns.
They laid before Miss Liberty a
sheaf of fashion plates.
