INTERVENTION FOR IRELAND

The resolution drawn up by Sen
ator Borah and pasesd by the Senate
asking the Peace Conference to give
Irish delegates a hearing has stirred
up international feeling. The British
press is indignant that the United
States should interfere with Great
Britain's internal affairs, in spite of
the fact that Lloyd George made the
statement during the war that the
United States was within her rights
in taking action in regard to the
Irish problem. Perhaps the premier
considered that statement as a bit of
crafty diplomacy.
At any rate, it seems that the Sen
ate has its hands full without becom-
ing involved in the long-dragged-out
Irish question. Provisions in Senator
Spencers resolution regarding the
League of Nations would tolerate no
interference from foreign nations con-
corning internal problems. Within a
short time a resolution is passed for
interference with domestic affairs of
a foreign nations.
What would be the Senate's reply
If Japan took similar action in re-
gard to independence of the Philip
pines? No doubt American newspa-
narc xpould hriStla like the British
Let Great Britain settle her Irish
problem. The manner in which she
does it will show her policy and claim
to progress and humanity. g.

CONSTITUTED AUTHORITY

Uncle Sam has about decided to
take Mexico for what she is instead
of for what she ought to be.
The policy of the United States
seems to be now to support the pres
ent government of Mexico. 1t is easier
to keep Carranza in power and help
him to keep order than it would be to
encourage Villa and Angeles to turn
everything upside down, killing peo-
pie and looting banks and then set
ting up another government which we
have no assurance would be any
stronger.
American interests in Mexico nat
urally complain every time American
property is destroyed But the United
States can hardly enter upon policy
to take things in her own hands down
in Mexico now any more than she
could several years ago.
The best thing for Mexico is law
and order Carranza processes no
great love for the United States but
even that is better than deceit. We
have to admire Carranza for being
frank, at any rate. And then right
down in his heart we have reason to
believe that Carranza is better
friend than he processes to be, for it
is necessary that outward appearances
show him up as hostile to the United
States in order to satisfy a large pro-
portion of the Mexican people.
We have no evidence that Carranzas
government is particularly oppressive
or that it is not pretty fair sort of
government in most respects. Charges
of Angeles and Villa against the Car
rama government are chiefly charges
prompted by jealousy.
Ordinarily it is not the wise thing
for any government to step into an

SWAT THE UNLICENSED DOG

There are too many homeless dogs
in Columbia
After a wearying day one goes to
bed to get what sleep is possible these
warm nights. But how often one is
rudely awakened by canine concerts!
Vehicles passing on the street are
greeted by barking dogs of various
breeds and halfbreeds. Some love-
sick hound sits on his launches under
ones bedroom window bowling out
loudly the yearnings of his heart.
In the summer time it is a menace
to a city to have stray dogs. One mad
animal could quickly infect many 9TH
er dogs, which might lead to a hydro
phobia epidemic among children, as
was the case in st. Louis three years
ago.
Unlicensed dogs are trespassers in
Columbia, for a city ordinance places
a tax on every dog.
For the sake of the sleep that we
ought to have, and for the sake of our
childrens safety. may the police swat
the unlicensed dog.

According to the marines the Cha
Chas are poor mixers" They live
on the west side of the harbor of
Charlotte-Amalie. decline to mingle or
intermarry with the negroes, and re-
sent any outside interference with

drinkers and best workers on the is
land, their fishing and weaving
bringing them good living. The
tribe is said to have come originally
from the Dutch and French Leeward
Islands.

it is for a woman to step across to

herself in Mexico for the protection
of the lives and property of her citi-
zens, then the rational thing to do is
to ally herself with .he constituted

that there was another door at the far
end similar to the one / had entered

built of rough stones from the low
ceiling to the floor, was q series of
compartments, each with locked wood

looking, and might have been taken
for prison cells, or family vaults, or
possibly wine bins. The massive locks
were red with rust, and there was
plainly no possibility of opening them.
On the other side Of the gallery
there was litter of old chains, and
some boards, probably left over from
the doors. Yes. and there were two
old fiintlock guns, and several cut
