WHY ALL THIS TREPlDArloN

Now that the war 10 over the world 70 QuAking
with fear. After meeting and overcoming the dead.
and herosm that will be the marvel Of the
world for ages to come. the conquercrs Of the Gen.
tral Powers tremble and turn white At the merest
suggestion Of imaginary danger.
There is fear Of Boshevism. and Of laboFism
and Of socialism. and Of communism, and Of capital
ism. and Of dozen other isms OF various kinds
everybody seems to be afraid Of something. Appar-
emily the real trouble Is that everybody has
Of nerves.
In reality the boRy of Bolshevism Is about ~
dangerous to the world as measles. To have any
chance Of becoming q real power In the world Il
would have to appeal to millions of the and in
teigent people Of the world not only In Russia, but
here and there and If it did appeal It would not
be menace at ALL for the and intelligent peop-
pie Of the world can always be depended upon to
run the world saney and intelligently.
Az to the aspirations Of labor, the strikes that
have occurred of late and the recent agitation In
strike legislation apparently they merely constitute
part of the process by means Of which the relations
between capital and labor settling down to the
real after-war work Of production with which they
are confronted and afford no real cause for fear.
So also as to the alleged danger from socialism
and communism and all the other isue, they do not
and never constitute . menace TO the peace and
welfare Of the world at all comparable with the
danger which was forever destroyed when the Ger.
man Kaiser abandoned his dreams of world conquest
and fled for refuge to Holland
The war u over and the world II safe.
Our country is not going to the dogs and the
Reds won't get US. but it s going to take constant
women to counteract and destroy the present Of
unrest and discomfort and finally bring this nation
to An even keel. We are not out Of the woods yet
but we are getting our bearings.

A BID FOR DISSOLUTION

Within few weeks the people Of the United
States will be asked to contribute millions Of dollars
to the Characterization" fund of the Anti-Saloon
league.
Stripped of its vermifuge, it seems that the
league wants to raise immense sum for the main
tenance of its officers while they undertake Job
entitled "Americanizing the Foreigner" We pre-
dict that their drive will be failure.
Let the league be content with the laurels Of
prohibition, lest they lose their dignity and the re-
spect of the people.

MORE PROTESTS ON
PAVING RECEIVED
But City Commission
Decides to Let Tijeras
Work Proceed

Regardless Of the letting Of tho
contract for the paving of West Tier
as avenue a week ago. protests against
the paving OF that street were heapod
upon members Of the city commission
at their meeting last night by a group
Of property owners.
The attack on the commissioners
for letting the contract was led by
4. Fleischer and George Taylor. each
OF whom said they represented sew
erni property owners. The two gave
the opinion that the price OF raving
would be lower IN time as the tend
cncy now was for prices to come
down. Mr. Flcischer said that there
were many people on the street who
could not afford to pave at the price
OF &3.00 a square yard as quoted.
After 4. Il. Hebenstrcit OF the New
Mexico Construction company In an
swer to a question stated that the
company had lost money on the paw
ing laid last fall. Mr.. Taylor said the
reason the company lost money was
because OF tho cold weather.
Mr.. Hcbenstpcit explained that the
price Of cement had gone uE a dollar
a barrel and that the company was
not trying. as some accused, to make
up for the loss OF last yea but only
reasonable profit IN the work con-
tracted. No one has the right to ask
the copany to operate at a loss. Mr..
Hebenstrcit told Mr.. Fleischer.
Walter Connell, chairman OF the
rity commission, explained that when
the protest meetings were held. that
only u minority Of the property own
ers ON Tijeras had made protests and
Il was aasumed that the majority
were either Indifferent or In favor of
paving. At this point n property
owner said he was N OF town whom
the protest notices were distributed
and had M chance to protest. lie
was then informed that II the notice
had been left at his house with a per-
son more than i6 years OF age, II was
considered n proper notification.
Following arguments back and
forth between the commission and
the property owners. win A. Keleher,
city attorney was asked for his opin-
ion Of the situation. The attorney
stated that as the reports showed
proper notices had been given to the
property owners and hat they did
not make protests when he time had
been set, that IL was now too late to
protest. Dr. Walter G.. Hope, who was
at the meeting, said he lad been OPP
posed to paving now mainly because
OF the nearness Of the cold weather,
but he believed now that as paving
had started that 1t was too late to
change plans.
G. NJ. Barber, head Of the autbmo-
bile dealers association. and a repre-
sentative Of the Mccullough Buick
company, made n protest to h COM
mission against the occupation M
for garages. saying that $50 was too
high. Action was deferred until Jan
unry /, when all occupation taxes are
to be considered.
City Manager James y. Gladding
was instructed 20 pay all city em-
ploycH twice n month. The action fol-
lowed n request by the city firemen
that this be. done. MIR. Cornell Was in
structed to appoint n committee to
cooperate with the Women's Roose-
Welt Memorial association hF obser-
