AFTER THOUGHTS

One cannot help wondering what Mr..
GOmpers did with that labor vote
which he was going to cast for Mr..
Cox.
Judge Hanna's bnll and buster
didn't get him very far.
The day before election Governor
Cox said that, every traitor In Ameri-
ca will vote for Senator Harding to-
morrow" The department OF justice
ought TO look into this matter.
The trip to the moon has gone fluey.
The best way 10 forecast m election
Is 10 count the votes.
Republicans got all they asked for I:
now it's up to them TO make good.
The women have spines just like
men.
What become OF the democratic Vote
'er Straight Club?
Where does the non-partisan league
come In?
Oklahoma. Tennessee. Missouri and
Kentucky. that's all.
Where Is the guy who kept us out
Of war in 1916?
Mr.. volstead was reelected by an
overwhelming plurality aud is with US
for keeps.
Any one who wants 40 b,
elected 10 office In New Mexico must
first gain the opposition of the Santa
Fe New Mexican and the Albuquerque
Morning Journal.
The Deming Headlight has at las
taken political stand and claims al
the credit for the defeat OF the Luns
county democratic ticket,
Just where does the Columbus Cour
Ter come In on the deal?
IL some of the republican candidates
had gone out and solicited their demo
cratic friends for votes. more Of them
could have been elected
Tumulty has not yet issued sob
story from the. White House. Put hlnr
out: he Is breaking my heart.
People are wondering whether the
state department has found out any
thing additional about Senator Hard
lngs hicker with the bolsheviki.
Frank Hubble and the Morning Jour
nal delivered Bernalillo TO the enemy.
Has anyone heard the heart OF q
world brcakingy
Gompers deplores the plunge to-
ward reaction" but says the enemies
of labor were beaten.
II must have been the dead soldiers
who were for the league OF nations; all
the live ones evidently voted against II.
and told their friends 10 do the same.
The Headlight declares that Mcssrs
Kerr and vaught grabbed the rcins
Of the party machinery" Some steed

WHY THE LEAGUE OF NATIONS
WAS NOT ACCEPTABLE TO L. s.

The league OF nations Idea was the
product OF many great minds working
toward the shining goal Of world peace.
Ii Is not the ideal that came into dis-
repute. hut the application of the prin-
ciples by President Wilson. Reading
the covenant reveals nothing TO the
average thinker, beyond the promise
OF n status quo: II does not promise II
peace based on law and equity. II does
raise n question. simple though II IS
In its wording. II seem to 'sn'ain a
h dden mean ig and conceal NOR,
than Il elucidates. What was ,hc hid
den purpose?
The people Of the United States can
Tot understand how q" man can eau
lio,lrce IN perfection II snper-govcfn-
IN mi or any r'nd of u go"ernmehl. =.
Americans are not mscho0led IN pot
itics and cannot conceive how any
man. however superior, can inititue a
government freed from the painful
process Of growth and adaptation to
changing needs. In the assumption OF
powers. the covenant seemed to threat
on American independence. Its pro-
tagonists declared IL did not, hut some
of the brightest minds In America anal
wed the document and expressed them
selves Of fear or uncertainty. Inc
people took alarm, and decided that
the game was not worth the chances.
A country that can boast of wealth
and honor. whose contracts and agree
ments are sacred anl binding. who
claims nothing by conquest, cannot af-
ford 10 place sentiment before pracu-
cal results in determining policies. TO
fellow man broken in mind ana Dody
into n wilderness of purely lntellectunl
conceptions. however alluring IN thelr
idealsm. Is not America's ida or gam
ing the benefits OF n new world or
der. The nations OF antiquity gained
wealth and culture. hut excesses OF
the body and vagnries OF the nina tes-
tified 10 their mfltness to survive ana
they went down with civilization
TINT had within II the seeds or decay
The nations with which the covenant
would have leagued us do not holu
good titles to their possessions whlch
were are asked to guarantee. The
world war did not confirm these u
tles. although II did permit n more
firm grasp uopn them. II never was
n choice between peace and war ratn-
or II was choice between military
dcspotism imposed hy world powers
and the right to defend freedom at
home and encourage liberty among 'hc
dc,,.n trodaIen of the earth.
The powerful body In the league OF
nations was To have been the conncii
made M OF the powers that have SIN
ned most previously against human
rights.
BESIDES the cost Of the super-goyern-
ment. American independence was TO
have been thrown into the baifrcc
with all the uncertainty that comes
from fallibilitv Of human schemes.
po,ue In her imperial glory ruled the
wo~ld from her seven hills. hut wifhli
the imperial system were rhe germs cf
n dry rot that finally reached the
heart and brought the mistress OF the
ancient world to ruin. That was one
wn~ld system that came to naught.
WIN America sow within her own
body polite the seeds Of dissolution
nv failing to heed the admonition OF
her patriots IN tho days gomez. Ameri- /
On has said that she win not commit |
any such great folly.

JAPAN DESIRES MORE SOUTH SEA
 ISLAND TRADE

Tokio, June 1s.---Japan is ambitious to obtain a larger share of the trade of the South Sea Islands which is es- timated at 2,oO0, ,000, 900 yen a year. Of this Japanese exports amount to only one and one-half per cent, but have increased rapidly since the war. Some Japanese commercial leaders are ad- vising that in order to increase the sale of Japanese goods in the South Seas Japan must import from the is lands rubber, sugar, chemicals, dye stuffs and spices in which these is lands abound President Kimura, of the Singaport Japanese Emporium, urges that Japan establish direct trade agencies with Sumatra and Manila for expansion of Japanese trade.

TURKISH WOMEN
 ARE TAKING MORE PROMINENT PLACE

ConStanGnople, June 1S.---TurkiSh women are no longer the shy yelled creatures who passed their time in the sec1uSfon of the harem and were never seen by foreign men, They still cling to the veil But the streets in Con- stantinople and other larger Turkish cities are filled with women who have their veils thrown back from their faces They are highly ornamental and becoming. Most Turkish women don't want to abandon them in favor of hats But there are marry sorts of Neiis and the smart, black silk veils which some of the women wear are very fetching when draped artistically over their hair
 In the railway and street cars there are special seats for women but the flimsy curtains which are supposed to screen them from the gaze of men are usually drawn back and it is not uncommon to see men standing in the compartments for women Only very old men, however, are rash enough to sit down in the same seat with a Turk ish woman Turkish women seldom go to a theater where there are men, Special matinees and evening per formanceS are arranged for women only
 The war has done much to break down the barrier between Turkish men and women The women were needed so badly for nurses and relief workers that the government had to avail itself of their services. And now it is regarded as quite proper for men and women to be associated in all , sorts of charitable and educa tional works Consequently many women who were formerly forced to content themselves with seciusion in a home where fancy work and French novels were the only diversions are devoting their time to hospitals, orphanages and other philanthropic institutions.
 Women who have been educated abroad or in the foreign schools in Turkey are the leaders in this move ment for greater freedom for their sex. Their broad experience in war work has interested mary women in politics and they have openly played a great part in the nationalist move ment In the Constantinople Ameri- can Woman's College the Turkish girls take great interest in bask etba II and other athletic games and the ef- feet upon women who have come un- der foreign influence is making the old life of seclusion and inactivity un- attractive to younger Turkish women.
