If You Need a Medicine

endless chain system the remedy is
recommended by those who have been
benefited, to those who are in need
of it.

Only GOOD IN THEORY.

The doctrine of self determination
of peoples and races has something
of abstract righteousness in it. but it
must be tempered by common sense.
Montenegro is naturally part of Ser
bia, but the Montenegrins want self
determination, including complete
control of ports vital to the prosperity
of the Serbian people.
Self-detcrmination for these Slavs
of the Balkan Black mountains would
mean a nation hopeiessly incapable Of
financing government, except by
levying heavy tolls ON the trade Of
the Serbs. Even with that, the finan-
ces Of the little nation would be
wholly inadequate. Before the coun-
try was overrun by the Austrians
three Wears ago, Russia had paid
nearly all the expenses of the Monte
negrin government from the time
those brave mountainecrs won their
independence from the Turks.
Self-determination Of people so
hopcIessly weak is an absurdity, par
ticularly when it imposes SO grave a
handicap on the rightful aspirations
of some millions of other people,
A good thing in theory may be
hopelessly wrong in practice, and fire.

THE FORD NEWBERRY CONTEST

Not only do the democrats in both
houses of congress insist upon pass
ing a revenue measure for 1920, but
the democrats in the senate are at
tempting to determine the personnel
of the membership of the next upper
house. Notwithstanding the fact that
Truman II. Newberry had majority
over Henry Ford. and has the GER
tificate of election. and that each
senate is the sole judge of its own
membership, the democrats are now
taking up the case of Ford against
Newberry with the evident purpose,
If there is possibility of doing so, of
preventing Newberry from taking his
seat on March 4.
If by hook or crook Ford can be
seated, it would give the democrats
control of the next senate, and that is
what the democrats are fighting for.
Newberry was in the service of the
United states government as naval
commander during the war. He was
not in Michigan during the campaign.

AUCTION OFF THE FLEET,
Washington Post.

A veteran naval officer writes to
The Post describing as childish" the
reported attitude of some of the
American peace representatives in de-
string to sink the German fleet be-
cause of fear that the allies might
quarrel over the distribution of it,
Our delegates feel that this should
be done" writes the officer. "Ev-
IDENTITY they feel because they cannot
or will not think. The German ships
can be made serviceable very readily
They are worth 100000, 900. While
our delegates feei that these ships
should be sunk, the navy department
feels and rightly that we should
spend $500, 100000 for new ships. -
Then the admiral makes the follow
ing suggestion:
Put the ships IN at auction; all the
allies and the United States allowed
to bid. This distributes the ships with
no chance for quarrel over the dis
tribution Turn the money received
over to Belgium as 50 much collected
of Germany's debt to her.
Why not take the suggestion of this
old salt? 1t does not smack of di-
plomacy. but there is lot of COM
mon sense in it.

RED CROSS CHAPTER AT
CLOVIS DlSPOSES OF 19

Clovis, ~ NJ, Jan. 21.--The A. r.
c. calves that were donated to the
Curry county chapter last spring num-
bered about forty, which We're to be
delivered to the committee in Clovis
during the month of December last
year. AT the time that they were to
be delivered the great SHOWS came
and made it an impossibility to get
them here in time to ship to Denver
for the a. r. G. roundup. Some of
the calves donated We're not more than
fifty miles from Clovis. Those that
were close in were brought here and
placed in the hands Of the chapter.
They numbered nineteen. The cost of
keeping them in good condition be-
gan to increase with the cold weather
and the conditions were such that the
executive board thought it an econ
omy to sell them, as it was too late
to get them to Denver for the show
The matter was put into the hands Of
j. NJ, Love. who disposed of them at
once to Houck and Gray and to j.
Frank Neel. The total amount re-
ceived was $500.
Mr.. and Mrs. Richard Mathews,
who came to Clovis some sixty days
ago from London, Canada, left this
morning for Pasadena and other
points in California They are expect
ed to return here in 4 few months to
make their home with the Clovis peo-
pie,
