mo IRISH NEED APPLY"

The treaty of peace failed by
four votes of ratification as amend
ed. But ratification would not
have been effective because Presi-
dent Wilson was determined not
TO accent it with Article X changed,
although that change was finally
approved by a vote Of Sc to rs SEN
ators, more than two-thirds. An
other feature which irritated was
the adoption of a reservation IA
voring the application of self-de-
termination to Ireland. The reso-
luton was supported by senators Of
both sides, but many upon both
sides objected. This action was
doubtless taken largely for political
effect, but there are many elements
that think Ireland should be al
lowed a separate government.
President Wilson, when in Paris
working with Lloyd George and
the British delegation, sidestepped
the irish question and has not aid
ed in any way to encourage the
irish Americans who are assisting
Erin and who asked Of the senators
some favorable expression.

operators and miners, who were
forbidden to prevent production.
Fuel Administrator Garfield was
called to handle the situation, but
President Wilson listened not to
him when the administrator decid-
ed what increase to allow to coal
workers and sellers, but called in
others and practically assured that
miners would get all they expected,
though they asked more. The con-
ference has resulted as foretOld.
More pay for the miners causes
lifting entirely the lid, that opera
tors MAY fix selling prices to cover
increased cost, and there is no re-
striction as to how much more.
The maximum price once fixed is
off, and the sky is the limit. though
President Wilson expresses a wish
that sellers go easy. He also says
the public will find a way to avoid
paying excessive prices.
A cold household will pay any
price asked, so long as the money
can be found and industries that
can utilize no other fuel must
come across with dealers prices,
Dealers may he moderate to the
extent Of their ability, but recent
indictments by the government
show that many operators conspire
even with miners to decrease pro-
duction in order to compel higher
purchase prices.

And apparently it is this type of

Should Let the Country
Know That Their Party

a Declaration of Peace.

The republicans of New Mexico

t ionlet the country know by proper

fishing peace with Germany with
out waiting for the president to
prolong the present status through i

If unfortunately the president
should arbitrarily veto such a dec

country, the world will know that
the nation sought for the best quick
solution of the difficulty that exists,
and that the obstacle is of an indi-
vidual nature. With such evidence
of good intent by congress. in
which republicans could justify
their course. and in which half or
more of the minority senators
would probably join, a long step
would be taken for better under
standing, at home and abroad.
The state convention Should
voice the public wish and the party
wish for a voluntary and adjusta-
BILE understanding with all races
and regions for peace and cooper
alton; not through such a league
as would under the guise of prom
ised protection, coerCe all into
membership under penalty Of the
discrimination and united power, in
which the majority and injustice
would be feared. Such an express

eral to all the world that every

say amen.

LID on THE TREASRY.

The new secretary of the United
States treasury is opposed to fur
ther big bond issues, either for the
purpose of relieving the country
from taxation as proposed by Will
liam G. McAdoo, former secretary
of the treasury, or for the purpose
of extra pay to soldiers. Nor will
tho plan to create from taxation
an annual sinking fund of $780,
100000 for the purchase of Lib
erty bonds be abandoned or post
poned. Mr.. McAdoo proposed that
this latter plan for stabilizing the
Liberty bond market be not taken
up for two years, and that mean
while there be issued each year
,O00,00O,000 in long-term bonds
to meet current expenditures,
thereby making it possible 70 re-
duce taxation each of the two years
by that amount Mr., McAdoo's
argument was that at the end of
two years Europe will be able to
pay the annual interest on her in
and that this expected $500, 10000
a year will enable the government
to meet all current and debt
charges without burdening too
greatly the taxpayer.
But the plan would scarcely
meet the approval of millions of
Liberty bond buyers who have seen
their holdings depreciate in selling
value to around so, although the
selling campaign succeeded upon
assurance from McAdoo that buy
ers could not lose. The federal
reserve system that was to uphold
values has not done so, and by
contracting loans has forced SELL
ing by many holders who needed
funds to carry on business or meet
living expenses. 1t is strongly as
serted in congress that the new
plan of McAdoo now to issue an
other $4,000. 600, 900 in bonds would
require an interest rate of pei
cent to secure buyers, and this
would cause earlier issues to drop
to so cents on the dollar because
investors would take them at that
figure only to make tho yield
something near the returns from
the newer issue.
Secretary of the Treasury Hous-
ton says that the remainder of the
credits to the allied nations author
lied by congress will not be grant
ed. Loans amounting to $685.

THE SEEKER.

The seeker never knows where
his thoughts will take him. The
procession of sequences is so exact
that, once started in any given d.
rection, they compel an active in
terest until some definite conclu-
sion is determined, and the truth
of the idea becomes to him self
evident. Later placing this con-
clusion as new starting point, he
sends his meditation in another di-
reCtion and seeks to make his idea
secure; first, to satisfy his own
mind that his conclusion is cor
rect one, and that he may so ex-
plain in the future to those whom
his philosophy interests.
The seekers philosophy is always
in advance of his material position.
His accomplishments in life are
always in the rear of his thoughts.
His advanced thought is point of
attainment for him to strive to-
ward.
One conclusion of thought never
satisfies. The same subject keeps
constantly recurring, repeating over
and over a seeming conclusion.
Each effort brings the idea he is
pursuing nearer to development.
The seeker knows the whole truth
IL always in advance of his effort
He knows the conclusions of today
are the starting point of tomorrow.
He knows, no matter what his
finished fundamentals may seem
now, that in the future new conclu-
sions will be reached and old ones
will be further developed. He
strives to his utmost to see as far
as his thoughts can take him. His
philosophers naturally become 9
part of his life, but not all at once
He advances according to the
thought he gives, and on the fin.
ished facts he plays the game OF
life from his greatest and grandesi
viewpoint, which is the elimination

HOME BUILDING URGED.

The building situation is attract
ing attention everywhere. In the
larger cities the inability Of work
men to obtain living quarters at
reasonable rents. the inability of
the fairly well-to-do to purchase
homes. is creating a serious prob
lem. Conditions are apparently no
better in the smaller towns, espe-
cially when the character of the
community is industrial. The drift
toward the cities was never more
marked, and farmers, not only
those of the open country, but also
those who restrict their activities
to dairying and truck farming, are
facing the impossibility of getting
required help. With the present
shortage of homes likely to con-
tlnue, builders in Albuquerque are
willing to risk investments at pre-
vailing prices for material, but
find it difficult to get orders filled
that must come from distant man.

NAL amount of construction is
really in progress here.
Local dealers in lumber are
straining their facilities in supply
ing material, but orders from the
Pacific coast remain untitled,
though prices seem to have reached
the maximum and are becoming
stabilized, it is thought.
The general car shortage is
largely responsible, although many
producers of building materials
blame the indifference of their
Eorkmen. A remedy is promised
when the railroad owners get their
properties in working order again,
and when the inevitable tide of mi
grafton to this country once more
sets in.
While building costs are high
wages are high in proportion and, it
is no harder to build today than 1t
was ten years ago under a lower
scale of wages and prices.
The truth of the matter seems
to be that there are too many peo-
pie who do not wish to assume the
responsibilities of homecoming
Instead of putting their money into

are buying all manners of luXuries
which they try to make themselves

AT FRIDAYS CONVENTION

endorsed by every yassal people,
who believed that their adoption
would establish their self-determi-
nation after the form of a world
wide democracy There was not,
and there could not have been any
partisan politics in the platform
Mr.. Wilson enunciated,- was ap-
proved by republicans and demo-
Gratis alike-but his principles did
not obtain with the majority Of the
peace congress.
John Maynard Reyes, who was
present all through the peace con-
ference, and who may be classed as
an expert on financial and econo~
mic questions, calls Mr.. Wilson's
position in the conference "the
tragedy of Paris" Mr.. Wilson
yielded announced principles for
the dangerous, complicated and in
explicable treaty which he thrust
upon the senate with the demand
that it should be accepted without
comment amendment or reserva-
ton. This instrument not only Vio-
lated our own constitution, but the
constitution of other states. The
diet of Sweden recognized this dan
ger in not less than Two of the
fundamental articles of the league
of nations.
Had Mr.. Wilson submitted to be
crucified upon the platform Of his
principles, no man could have &C
cupied a more glorious position in
history, but he took the contrary
course and chaos reigns; instead of
a league of nations is now an au-
tocracy of committeeman, respon-
sible only TO executive authority,
and in which the question has al
ready arisen as to what natlon OF
nations shall control.
Italy feels herself betrayed and
thwarted: France was given her
full need of revenge against Ger
many, and into the garment of the
league of nations, as 1t is interwoV-
en- with the peace treaty, are min
gled such iron threaos of indemnity
exactions against Germany, that
she may never again raise her mead
as an economic nation or satlsty
the demands of her creditors.
Jugo-SIavia represents nothing
more than a political marriage OF
racial cousins, and under all the
! laws of heredity, cannot begel
strong political offspring; Us
north is already quarrelling with is
south, and it's political aspirations
are as diverse as its economic in
| terests.
Turkey is shorn of her territory
but left unlimited in her power To-
evil. Armenia, that has long asked
for life and bread, is still hungry
and dying. India and Ireland haV'

raised them to an abyss of revolu
ton and despair; and Persia is fret
ting under her bonds.
That Mr.. Wilson'S league ha
| been rejected does not mean tina

practicable to arrange later.

while indiscriminate appears to
carry with it the implication of
something slightly blameworthy.
If it be admitted that our friends
and acquaintance should be chosen
with care, then it follows that we
should be no less careful in the
choice of authors. A writer takes
for the time being the place Of a
living comrade. consequently his
attitude of mind toward the per-
sons or events in the tale he UNI
folds is surely not without effect
on the minds of his readers.
Much of what is termed realistic
literature, dealing as it commonly
does with martial infidelity and its
consequent evil - divorce - must
necessarily lower the moral stan
dard of it's readers. True, the eff
feet is modified by the manner of
presentation.
Relation of a grave moral wrong
as if it were merely a thing TO be
amused at, must inevitably tend to
make it cease to be reprehensible
in the eyes of the reader. More
oyer, constant coming in contact
with what is sordid in the human
character, either in life or in lit
erature, cannot be INDUCED in
without danger to moral health, no
matter how impersonal and de-
tached the method of treatment.
On the other hand, what book
lover has not often experienced the
ennobling impulses derived from
the reading of good books? They
help us to live life bravely, to bear
its troubles patiently and encourage
us in moments of stress or despon-
dency to turn our faces upwards
to the eternal stars.

1t is the popular idea that the
long face betokens melancholy or
an acrid temperament, while the
round face is associated with the
person of jolly, cheerful DISPOSE
ton. But this is because the same
face appears shorter when it bears
a smile and longer when it eX-
presses sorrow or melancholy. The
face itself remains the same length.
Then the face that is emaciated
seems longer than the face that is
well covered with fat, and naturally
the person who is lean and hum
CRY does not appear to be and
actually is not so merry as the one
who dimes well three hundred and
siXty-five days in the year.
But the real length of the face
is a part of its structure and you
have to look a bit beneath things
superficial to tell whether a face
is really long or only appears to
