EDITORIAL.

We do not know that we are called
upon to comment upon Father Daily'S let
ter published in this issue. Although adj
dressed to the editor OF the paper, the com
munication deals with a matter in which
we merely acted as spokesman for those
who felt that we had been instrumental
in exposing the community to an I'M
warranted attack, and we therefore refer
the letter to the interested parties. In
a"lIusiOn however to that part Of the
article implying that she editorial columns
are governed by any individual or in
dividuals, or voice the sentiments Of
any one person, the reference to sim
ilarity in style between Mr.. Svendsen's
letter and our editorial giving his i'm
preston, we are bound to say that such
an idea is quite erroneous. AS a mat
ter of fact we do not see the sim
iiarity and Father Daily does not point
it out. The conservative attitude of
the avis" is too we'll known locally
to require of any argument on this
score and in the present instance
we happen to know. lat Mr.. Svend-
sens letters are trapslaticOs from Danish
while Danish plays no part in our
editorial or other notes, As Father Daily
remarked in a recent correspondence
with Rev. Mayhem, there is in these dis
cussions usually much heat with no light.
And this isprobably the case here; there
fore we welcome a cessation of the hOstil-
ty which is kept up viii e controversies
last, and would like toass ire all concern
ed that this paper has no partisan feel
ings whatever as regards the outcome

OFFICIAL NEWS.

Governor Oman will arrive in Freder-

next Tuesday the 9th. He will receive
those who wish to see him in Judge
NolPs office that Afternoon from Z to 4

The detachment Of Marines under com

Governor Oman has received a lei
ter from the Chief of the Weather Blu
raau in San Juan stating that the Chief
Of the Weather Bureau in Washington
proposes 10 inaugurate 2 system Of
weather Observations to embrace all Of
the islands and contiguous coasts OF
the Caribbean Sea.
At the present time the Weather Blu
reau has an organized cIlmat0loglcal
service in Porto Rico O9iy, but desires
10 extend this service. as rapidly as
practicable. to include selected stations
in the Virgin Islands ct the United

Weather reports are now being receIV-
ed at tire Weather bureau in San Juan
from one station in st. Thomas, which
is operated by the Harbormaster, and
from one Ii St. Cr)ix. It is desired
however, to open at least one more
station on the island Of st, Thomas,
one on St. John, anC five or six more
stations on the island OF ST. CroiH:
The weather Bureau will furnish the
necessary iastrut1an5s@ and forms, and
supervise the work of collection and
publication of the results. AS there is
no provision in law for compensation
Of observers it is necessary 70 find men
or women who are personally interest
ed in the work TO take no the duties of
the observer. Governor Oman will, as
far as practicable, detail from the Gov
service as many persons as
can be spared for this work, which is
so essential to the inhabitants of the
Virgin Islands, but offers of service
on the part of others will be solicited.
The work to be performed by the
weather observers is Of great import
ance to planters, shipping men and resi-
dents in general, and it is hoped that
the public will freely cooperate with
the Government in the establishment

UP TO CARRANZA.

None too strong can be the demandt made by this government to Csrranza that he effect the release of American n Consul Jenkins now held by rebels or others in the heart of Mexico for a substantial ransom. Here is a case where representative of this govern fnent, whose protection the Mexican government is responsible for, has been kidnapped, taken out of the sec cnd largest city in the republic to the south and held in defiance of Mexican authorities.
 Trouble of this kind has been ex- perienced along the border whore Carranza has pleaded difficulty in sending and maintaining his forces but this latest instance is in territory where Carranza professes to be in full control, where the people are loyal and where the maintenance of law and or der was to be expected
 Having had the representative of another government taken forcibIy away it should require no protest on the part of that government to set the Mexican authorities to work to ac- conplish his return unhsrned No ef- forts should be spared and no time should be lost. but so far as known there has been no information from Mexico City to show that anything was being done or that Carranza was alive to his responsibilities in the matter.
 It IS therefore high time that Car fanza should be made to understand what is expected of him. even to pay ing the ransom that is demanded if it IS impossible to bring about the re- turn of the consul otherwise As matter Of pride CaFranza should be so anxious to fulfill his obligations that he should have needed no prodding, but inasmuch as it is needed Mexico should be given to understand that if 1e cannot do its duty it will be fur nished help whether it likes it or not

LETTERS TO THE. EDITOR
 Asks for Official Statement.

Mir Editor: A Reader seems angry because I presented so many official statements proving that the right of self determination for small nations was among the war issues of the allied nations during the world war. Now, honestly, NIT. Reader and Mir. Ringland, how do you interpret President Will sons remarks of Sept. 27. 1918: We accepted the issues of the war as facts we can accept no outome which does not squarely meet and settle them. Those iSsues are these: Shall the mili- tary power of any nation or group of nations be suffered to determine the fortunes of peoples over whom they have no right to rule except the right like millions of others, still believe to wrong weak nations? Shall peoples be ruled and dominated. even in their own internal affairs, by arbitrary and irresponsible force or by their own will and choice?'
 Studying this official statement of our war aims and not finding a single fine from George or Clemenceau to the effect that the statement was wrong, I, like missions of others, still believe that the right of self lf-determinat ton for small nations was among the war aims for which the allied nations car ried on the world war.
 Both MT. Ringland and A Reader claim nay conclusion is wrong Will they please quote an official statement made in 1917 or 1918 proving their con tention? I believe this is a fair re-

When thoroughly dry, take a clean clothes brush and brush vigorously to raise the nap.
 Once you realize that corduroy may be washed you will not be so reticent to make use of a corduroy skirt for your household tasks at which you would usually choose only a tub frock.

HOME MADE HANDBAG.

We are still-the feminine half Of us-slaXes Of the pretty handbag It Of course. for spreading forth such ptins bags for eur conienlpIat ton We all want them. They are so at traeti9e We can't help wanting tkem.
 Well, if you can't afford to buy one make one. It isn't such terribly diff ficult thing to do. really. Just get the materials, as good as you can afford and then set to work to make as pret- ty a bag as you want
 To begin with, look at the pattern books that have patterns for bags Then look about the shops a bit and see how the prettiest bags like the one for which you have chosen a pat tern, are finished. The finishing of a bag is very important. and on it de- bends much of the charm of the bag you make.
 There are many tassels still used on handbags, so you would probably do the bottom. of your bag. Chenille tas- sels are used on velvet bags very of ten. If you make a bag or brocaded silk use dull gilt or silver tassel. Then there are beautiful beaded tas- selS that go well on silk of any sort.
 Beaded bags are still in vogue so if you want to put lots of work on your new bag, make one of that kind. It will take long time to make the right soAt of bag but if you work a few dollars make a. bag w>ich. du- plicated in the shops. would cost s2o or $50.
 You can buy many kinds of tops for these bags. Some are of silver or other metal, some of bone or imitation shell. with holes pierced for sewing the fabric of the bag in place. As for the handle. use a ribbon, a fold of the fabric of the bag a me tallic or silk cord. Any of these fin- ishes for a handle is in good style.
 In some of the highest priced Bags a little strip of tiny ribbon or chiffon flowers Is used to cover the place where the top of the lining is sewed in- This makes an extremely dainty finish.

Marriage Superstitiona

It is an old beEef that marr1aEs should take place when the moon i5 waxing and not waning. if it is to be a lucky match. and in many north coun- try districts st-int inquiry is madr as to the state of e moon before the wedding day is fixed according to a writer in London Answers. In the north, too, no wise bride will ask an odd number of guests to her wedding feast. for an old superstition has it that if this be done one of the guests will die before the year is out.
 In the Highlands it is taken 2. terribly unlucky sign if a dog should run between the bridal pair on their wedding day; while in Derbyshire prospective brides still tell the bees of their wedding and decorate the hives or the occa sion. In parts of England and Scotland there exists an ancient custom for which reason is hard to find, by which part of the wedding cake is broken over the head of the bride and the guests scramble for pieces.
 None of these marriage manners, however, compare with the Chinese custom which causes bacon and sugar to be hung on the sedan chair of a Chinese bride, in order to keep the de- mons from molesting her on her we'd ding journey. The Chinese bried-to- be, too, has to stand in a round, shall low basket while she drft q for the in order to make her of good temper and amiable disposition.
 More people are pinched by power ty than by the police.
