LOADED WITH INT.

While the president has declined
to intercede officially with the British
government in behalf of the Irish in
dependence movement, he is reported
in the New York Times, a very friend
ly newspaper which favors the league
Of nations. first, last and all the time.

that he bclives the league of nations
has the right to take up the troubles
OF oppressed minoritics, which means
that If the Irish troubles become
more acute after the league is organ
lied. the whole question, in his opn-
ion. should be Investigated"
Now, if the league can take IN the
Irish trouble in the British Isles, can
not it take up the negto question in
the southern states? The New York
Sun, commenting on the dispatch,
which seems to have attracted wide
attention in the American press, says
if the Irish question is loaded with
dynamite. the negro question is loaded
with INT.

such things 'nagging at President
Wilson, The Journal believes it is
calling attention of the people, who
are the real rulers of the country, to
grave mistakes on the part of the man
who has assumed to give entire direc-
ton to their affairs since the armi-
stice was signed, and who has de-
clined the advice of everyone except
Colonel House and Postmaster Gen
eral Burleson.

WHERE PATTERN .NLISM Is

The suggestion of immigration
Commissioner Caminetti that immi-
grants be subjected TO registration and
surveillance for period comes from
an official who is familiar with the
laXty Of existing laws and practices
Under our present system we deny
hospitality at our very gates TO many
who are only unfortunate. The phys-
cally sound, especially if they have a
few dollars, are admitted practically
without question. no matter what their
mental or moral deficiencies may be.
1t is i'm this way that we get our
revOlutionists and bomb throwers anG
the men and women who make reVo
lutiOnists and bomb throWerS of 9TH

factory towns and tenements with
people who find themselves ColOnized
in the United States but no more in
touch with American life and ideals
than they were at home. often less so.
In most of their Industrial, social and
cigners, not always well disposed.
Government welcomes them to these
alien settlements and then ignores
them until it finds that under the in
fluence of It's enemies they have be-

Coon LOCAL GOVERNMENT.

municipalities generally are having
to pay higher wages for ordinary
labor. They will also have to pay
more to get competent clerical work.
The schools cost great deal more
All supplies have risen in cost. If
current prices are paid the cost of
running cities towns and counties
must rise considerably
Where proportionate advance in
taxes has been made. the voters have
often keenly resented it, Officials are
generally fearful the public will not
stand for raises. In many places they
have gotten around the difficulty by
skimping on road appropriations, or
failing to advance salaries of teachers
to compare with cost of living That
is makeshift policy and will not pay
in the long run. Albuquerque has ad-
vanced salaries Of teachers.
Realizing this situation the people
should demand a high standard of
efficiency in local government. The
difficulties in government all come
! back to the people The voters get
generally as good government as they
deserve.
The trouble IS that frequently good
officials are turned down and men
without business ability are elected,
for merely personal reasons. If a
man is a good social fellow and can
talk well, he is apt to be winner in
politics. But he may have no bust
ness ability or gift for executive man
agement. Then later when he makes
"A mess of it and runs an extravu CANT
or inefficient government, the people
kick, when they should have known
better in the first place than to elect
any such man.
Voters, in making their choice
should cut out personal feeling and
consider simply the character and
record of candidates. When they
elect only those who show ability to
do other things successfully, good re.

one town more than another. and are
not meant to fit any individual in Of

MONDAY.

Thirteen states gave the ballot to
American men.
Thirteen states can prevent the ma
tional suffrage amendment being
adopted before the next presidential
election. either by refusal or failure
to act.
In order to nave all states vote upon
ratification before the 1920 election
legislatures would have to be called
in extra session. Several pledges have
been given for calls.
Six states have annual sessions,
while five other legislatures had not
adjourned when congress passed the
amendment. The five have ratified
Kansas unanmously-and the other
four almost solidly
In fifteen states full suffrage for
women prevails. and in eleven more,
women vote for presidential electors.
Texas and Arkansas let women cast
ballots in primary elections. In some
states women vote for town officers,
and. as in New Mexico, in school
elections.
Tennessee recently consented for
women to vote for presidential cleo
tors. Other southern states and
Texas permit no woman to cast Il
ballot
In New England, Vermont, Maine
and Rhode Island they allow presi-
dental suffrage. All the other ATTAIN
tic states. except New York, where
full suffrage prevails, are on the map
of black states. because no form of
woman suffrage has been granted, un-
less in school and town elections,
There are thus eighteen states
where no woman votes.
The New York Times, the ablest
eastern newspaper opponent of suf-
frage, says: In spite Of the ease
with which legislatures are managed
by the cleverest feminine bosses. in
spite of the strong political motives
at work, in spite of the fact that
twenty eight or twenty nine legisla-
lures have granted presidential suf-
frage, uphill work lies before the
suffragists"
The Times believes that the vote in
congress showed that Connecticut,
Massachusetts, New Hampshire, Penn
sylvania, Delaware and ELEVEN
southern states are not safe.
The Richmond Dispatch thinks Viz
ginia will be one Of the thirteen for
defeat of the amendments
The st. Louis Globe Democrat. the
Post Dispatch of st. Louis and the
Newark News. strong pro-suffrage
papers, think that the necessary
eighteen extra sessions will not be
called.
But as against these computations
are the strong assurances and Optim-
ism Of the sufiragists, who declare
that all will go we'll.
Whatever the fate of this amend
ment woman suffrage will become
nation wide, if not next year, some
other year not far distant. 1t should
be so.

MERELY STATING FACTS.
The Estancia Herald says:

The Estancia Herald says:
"An astonishing thing happened a
few days ago. The Albuquerque Jour
nal printed an editorial in which Sen
ator Jones was commended as n man
of ability. This must have got into
the Journal columns through some
mistake Since before last election
the Journal has been as rank par
tisan sheet as anybody could wish
could see nothing good in the demo-
cratic arty, or any member of 1t, and
nothing bad i'll the republican party,
or any member of it; and its continual
nagging at President Wilson has been
feature of almost every issue of the
paper"
The Journal merely did justice to
Senator Jones. 1t pointed out that he
has done little for New Mexico, and
that he hasn't tried to do much. and
plumbers.
But the journal also said, and is
glad to be able to say it, that New
Mexico has two of the ablest men in
the United States senate. and they
are 50 recognized at the national cap
ital Senator Fa'l readily ranks as
one of the three ablost men on the
republican side, and Jones, while not
the best speaker, is the ablest nan
on the democratic side.
Now, as regards "nagging at Pres
ident Wilson" the Journal calls at
tenton to the following facts 1t has
stated and states again. that Wood
