oARRANZA's APPEAL.

No one but Carranza will be surprised at the decision of this government against the request for permission to send his troops across United States ter ritory in order to attack the Sonora troops from the rear. Whenever this government can be of assistance to him, as it was to a large degree in recogniz- ing his government, he is ready and willing to call for help. At such time he realizes the good neighbor, but when it comes to living up to his obligations to another nation and respecting the rights of others and their subjects he is inclined in the other direction. It is a case of you do all you can for me and I'll do what please for you.
 Carranza has on previous occasions asked for the same privilege he sought in this latest instance. He used this method to move against Villa and in- stead of stopping Villa 1t only made him worse The bandit leader not only con tinued to harrass Carranza but he turn ed his attention to the American border towns with the result that we went into Mexico after him only to have Carranzs throw obstacles in our way at every steI and assist thereby in tho failure of the | expedition.
 Today Carranza seems to think tha we are disposed to repeat such opera | tions as an aid to his efforts in suppress ing the secessionists. The fact of thu matter is that we have had lesson enougl from the CarranzaS government. w know how little we can expect in the wa, of respect for obligations by that govern naent and certainly we have no reasol
 to furnish the facilities which will mak
 it easier for Carranza to handle the sit nation which has arisen and which h
 must face. In view of the attitude whic
 has been taken by Carranza on man
 matters involving this country it is sur

 To main tain the long and exposed line of communication which the Jap anese armies established between vladi- vostok and Lake Baikal, thousand miles inland. while occupying the coun- try to. the north of Yladivostok 10 the mouth of the Amur, has been a military undertaking of the greatest difficulty with the comaratiyely small number of troops available. Yet tho Japanese have firmly declared their intention of remain ing in Siberia at least until they have redeemed their promise to get the last of the CZecho-Slovak troops out of the country. and have safeguarded Korea from bolshevik attack.
 Except insofar as it might be neees- sary to maintain this security, the Jap anese government. through its embassy l in Washington as well as in formal ut terances by officials in Toisio. has ex- pressly repuliated any intention of terri torial acquisition in- Siberia, and 1t is stated that this undertaking stIn holds good.

KrFEcrs OF THE STRIKE.

Now that it is established that the satlaw strike of the railroad men is a failure conditions will gradually work back toward normal. but 1t will be some time getting even to the point where they were when the men left their jobs.
 The havoc that has been wrought in the short time the strike has been un- derway is great. and the losses if they could be figured would run into large figures. The railroads will be obliged to york for some time to clear up the con restion that has been created but do as ihey win there Is much business that is les; which can never be made up. Ma terial which would ordinarily be moved sv railroads has been transported in other ways and that fact may mean a constant loss from that very experience
 Then there are the losses that have been experienced by the railroad men who have been thrown out of work be- cause Of, the unjustihed action of their fellow workers. the loss in wages that has been accustomed by the many thous- and workers in industries who were nhlirtd to loaf because 1t was impossible Tor the railroads to haul the raw mater tai or to get them sufficient fuel to keep Inc wheels revolving and the loss that has been experienced by the many lines of businsss because of the inability to get goods. to say nothing of the extra ez- penss that has been caused. the higher prices and the anxiety and suffering that have followed the threatened short. age of foodstuffs
 And out of all this trouhlemaking nc bcneht has come and none Is likely tc come to those who are responsible for it unless it be that they have been awak. ened to the gross injustice of their ac. ten. It has simply made bad conditionl much worse and along with the people 1T general have placed the railroads in . position where they are bound to mak, atrongsr their pleas for relief action 1T the way of rates that will be in keep lng with the service rendered.

 Encouraging the Thrifty-Now that the saving of money has become great na- tional virtue, the new savings banks bill' to enable depositors to accumulate as much as they please, is no doubt move in the right direction. It is doubtful. however, with all the attractive facilities we now have for saving, whether any ex- tra big deposits will find their way to our savings banks unless the rate of interest is substantially increased. Many of the leading joint stock banks are now find ing it good business to appeal to the working and lower middle classes. and are offering per cent for quite small deposits. These amalgamating bodies must already be formidable rival to the postoffice, where the interest is much
 lower. tts

roN1aHr,s TowN MEErINa.

The business before the special town meeting tonight calls for as large an at- tendance of the taxpayers and voters of the town as can get there. It is not a matter 10 be disregarded or to be lightly parsed over.
 u Is a time when there should be 6 full expression by the people of Nor wich as to whether at this time the con- ditions in this community are such az 10 warrant the additional increase in salaries of the school teachers over and above what the school board believes should be granted.
 n Is time for the people of Norwich 10 determine whether they are going to stand by their school board which, in reaching a decision upon the question has taken into consideration both the needs of the teachers and the position of the taxpayers by giving due thought to tha conditions which exist here today, or whether simply one side of the matter is to ret attention. the appeal of the teach CTS granted just because it is asked and the effect it will have upon the taxpay- CTS and other entirely disregarded.
 This is not a matter that should be left to a few to decide. Having been referred to the townspeople there should bs an expression by as many of those vho are entitled to a voice as can at tend
 IL is the opinion of the school board that the proposed increase, the one that has been promised by the board, deals Justly with the school teachers. Such an increase will become effective with the opening of the fall term and means in all probability a salary basis that will never be lowered. however much condi- tions may change for the better.
 It is the purpose of the league of tsaehers to obtain twice as much as the .chool board believes they should be given.
 The final decision rests with the peo pie and that decision should be rendered d the town meeting tonight.
 Norwich should and must be govern sd by the conditions which it faces righ here at home.

AFTER HIGH PRICES.

If there was a serious desire to sound public opinion back of the movement for wearing overalls by the men and calico by the women it certainly has gotten 2 response that cannot fail to command attention. It makes it evident that the people are not backward in showing their opposition to those who are profit eering in clothing. How long 1t will last is another question.
 Just at the present time 1t is a novel undertaking but it cannot be denied that thers are serious intentions behind it in certain quarters at least. Having been convinced that there is a chance to affect the selling price of clothes, and to per- init the amount of material to accumu- late so that the demand will not be the excuse offered for the maintenance of high prices, tho wearing of the cheaper clothes should, if continued, cause some relief. Whether it will create greater trouble in other directions remains to be seen.
 Along with thIs undertaking there may we'll go a change in attitude toward high prices in general. Heretofore we have been told that dealers have been forced to place high prices on their goods in or der to dispose of them, that cheaper goods were scorned If that state of af- fairs still prevails there is a way out of the situation without making the work ing man pay several times the former price for overalls and without putting the legitimate clothing dealer on anxious street. and that is by scorning the high priced goods, and by cultivating the say. ing habit in whatever line purchases are being made.
 A good start seems to have been made
 in this direction by the overalls and cal | leo movement. If that is continued. anc extended to other things as we'll, it vii
 indicate that the people have gone to tht limit of their endurance and instead oi
 insisting upon chasing the high prices il

by the daring exploits of American commanders While Taylor and Scott ] were advancing with their armies, Dom iphan with a brave band was marching | across New Mexico to Chihuahua City | and Fr@nont. with a handful of men, raised the flag over California and kept it flying.
 We had hardly less difficulty in con quering Mexico than in propping up a Mexican government long enough to give us title in a treaty of peace, to the spells of the war-522,56S square miles, for which we made Mexico a consolatory gift of $15,00o, 900. Add to that conquest, the great state of Texas and the great ter ritory in the northwest which was con-. flrmed to us in the Oregon settlement, and we have indeed a grand total of ter ritorial gains under Folks administra- tion. Yet 1t profited the president him self and his party nothing, because, their policy was tainted with a ~ purpose to. widen the area of slavery. \ grim, little, care-worn man, with clothes two or three sizes too large for him, Polk did not cut much of a figure l in the presidency. Although Mrs Folks straight-laced religion banished dancing and cards from the White House, her | popularity and distinction of manner
 shone in contrast with the drabness of 1 her husbands personality.
 Madam, l have heard but one opin- | ion of you,' Henry Clay said to her. 'All agree in commenting in the highest | terms your excellent administration of | the domestic affairs of the White house. 1 Indeed Mrs. Polk beamed in reply,
 q am glad to hear that my administra- tion' is popular. And I will say that if the country should elect a whig next
 fall, l know of no one whose elevation would please me more than that of Hen | ry Clay"
 Polk declined the reelection which he | could not have obtained. With his al- | ways frail body broken under the heavy
 iabors of his term this luckless suitor of 1 fame retired to his home in Nashville There he died in less than fifteen weeks
 after leaving the White House, and

Don't Spoil Your Hair
 By Washing It

When you wash your hair, be care ful what you use. Most soaps and prepared shampoos contain too much alkali, which is very injurious, as it dries the scalp and makes the hair brittle.
 .. The best thing to use is Mulsified coeoanut oil shampoo, for this is pure
 and entirely greaseless. It's very cheap
 and beats anything else all to pieces
 You can get this at any drug store and few ounces will last the whole
 family for months.
 Simply moisten the hair with water
 and rub it in, about a teaspoonful is all that is required. It makes ar abundance of rich, creamy father cleanses thoroughly and rinses ou easily.

 EXCHANGES.

It cannot be too strongly urged that in the Latin-Anerican countries we have old customers who need manufactured goods who need just the goods that we ought to be able to supply that by sending goods to these countries we should be helping not our exchanges with South America only but with North America also. It is certain that unless we can make a strenuous and concerted effort to regain our old trade in those countries it will he taken from us forever by our competitors in the north.
 Matches and Hatches--The registrar general "has the honor to report that the number of persons married in Eng land and Wales during the third quarter of 1919 is the highest quarterly number recorded They were 212,394, or 54,444 more than in the third quarter of 1918. Apparently the shortage of houses is not so great handicap to matrimony as was supposed. The reconstruction of family life is making good progress. Of the 223, ,56S babies born in the last quarter of the year (the largest total since 19o6) 115, ,419 were boys. This is 22 per thou sand above the normal ratio of boys and girls, circumstance which has been ob- served after other wars.
