MORE GOOD APPLES WANTED.

During the past winter people in the north

pay nearly as rauch for apples for oranges.
Quite frequently too the best apples to be had in
those sections had been shipped there from the

LEAGUE COVENANT HAS TEETH.
washington POStl

In a copyrighted editorial in the Philadelphia
Public Ledger. former Pres't Taft shows that the
covenant OF the league OF nations is strong and
forceable. and in nowise contravenes the policies
interests of the United States
Regarding the misconception 10 which critics of
me covenant have given currency, Mr. Taft said:
The attitude OF those who favor the covenant
has been isconstrued. increasing the confusion in
the mind OF the public in respect TO the inestmabe
value OF the covenant IL is Were the alternatives
presented exactly is. OF postponing the
ing OF peace and continuing the state OF until

provisions for peace. should without the slightest
fear TO the complete safety Of my country under
its provisions for il the greatest step in the
betterment OF international relations the benefit
OF the people OF the world and for the benefit OF
my country in recorded history
Answering the contention that the covenant is
without provision for enforcement Mr.. Taft con-
tnued:
The proposed league has real teeth and a bite
to IL II furnishes real machinery organize the
power OF the peaceful nations of the world into
economic and military action. which BY its very
existence and certainty will keep nations from war
and will force them 10 the acceptance OF a peace

Other Editors Than Ours
MORE COLLISION.
New York WORLDLY

An Associated Press dispatch puts Lord Robert
Cecil record regarding the bearing of the pro-
posed covenant of League of Nations the
roe doctrine, follows:
IF the Monroe doctrine means as I believe
ii does, that there ought to be interference
with affairs the American continent by Eu-
ropean powers. without the consent of the United
States, then say that the doctrine is strengthen
ed by the League of Nations"
Pres't wilson's view that the proposed constitu-
ton of the league extends the Monroe doctrine
the whole world is we'll known.
William II. Taft has said:
Those who enforce Monroe doctrine
which makes the western hemisphere our
preserve in which may impose sovereign
will the will of other countries in their own
interest because. indeed have done that in
the past. should be sustained. Our conquests
of our western territory of course have worked
greatly for the civilization of the world and for
usefulness and the happiness those who
occupy that territory: but We have reached
state in the worlds history when its progress
should be determined and secured under just
and peaceful conditions. and prosress through
conquest by powerful nations should be prevent
ed"
1t will be noted that what Lord Robert Cecil con-
cedes the Monroe doctrine and what Mr. Taft
is ready to give up of the Monroe doctrine only
places the United states in that position OF larger
responsibility toward the world and its affairs which
the majority of the people of the United
believed, with the president the nation must hence
forth assume.
1t is amazing that a few Americans in the year
1919 still talk and argue if utterly uncon-
SciouS that there had been war anywhere but in
some remote region of central Asia and if older
policies and doctrines of the American people had
been untouched and unaffected by anything that
has happened in the last five years.
We thought the world war as a
nation. with great and far-reaching purpose. We
begin to be of the minority that in
because it was pulled in. and that pokes it's
head into hole lest II be unpeasantly reminded
of wider national pledges and OBLIGATIONS
in the agreement OF democratic president Of
the United states, republican eX-preSident and q
as n he tim of
the Monroe doctrine this minority will try TO see
only more sign OF sinister collision

VICTORY LOAN AND BOLsHEVIsM.

THE Victory loan will bring all the bolshevism
in this country" says a war-loan worker. And
when it does, 1 hope will do with the
OF the red flag what is done with traitors in the
war-shoot them"
This is an extreme utterance, and possibly
wise There is need of stirring trouble
by radical threats. It serves. however. a timely
warning. There is undoubtedly going to be a good
deal Of under-hand opposition to this loan, and
good deal of passive resistance. 1t follow,
at ALL that any person not actively helping to pro-
mote the loan not subscribing to it is bolshevst
and the enemy of his country. But it may help to
clarity the situation If every citizen alien resident
will understand the suspicious he may incur if he
fails to show the proper spirit this occasion.
II will really be blessing If the 'V" loan sep.
arates the sheep from the goats, it undoubtedly

MANDATORY FOR IRELAND.

The latest and also the startling suggestion
for the solution OF the Irish problem is that ireland
shall be given her independence under Amer-
can protectorate mandatory" II has not reach
ed the stage OF a formal proposal but is said to
have mentioned British counsels and
have the advocacy Of az least important Brit

This statesman. like many other Englishmen. is
said feel that Britain expect any
positive benefit from her connection with Ireland.
There might have been serious movement in Eng

been for the natural fear that Independent Ire

their demands that Great Britain do something to-
ward the permanent solution OF the Irish question

THE. SALOON SUBSTITUTE.

In view Of the continued discussion OF quarters
TO be established to take the place Of the saloon
the following quotation from editorial in a New
Rochelle ~ Y, paper has real suggestive value;
I'm all districts there should be rooms we'll
lighted and warm, literally supplied with daily
papers magazines minimizing the
'highbrows'). There should be checkers, chess.
cards puzzles, good coffee and cocoa served
summer. Let those who come smoke all they
will and talk within reason. No should
be barred unless quarrelsome unnecessarily
dirty.
There must be absolute avoidance of
any appearance OF patronizing. and
tartan influences must be allowed to get a foot
hold The average is OF very indepen-
dent nature. and any attempt TO force reform
down his throat is futile. He especially has
distaste for insidioug religious propaganda"
There Is sound the above lines
and real comprehension of the problem. IL will
be very difficult for many people interested and
