WORKS LIKE VACUUM CLEANER.

1t is noticed that the cities of Laramie and KEN
merer have employed the Arnold law to good ad-
vantage to rid their respective communities of i'm
moral and altogether undesirable institutions. It may
also be noted that Casper is alive to the advantages
of the same law and expects to do considerable bust
ness, under it, toward cleaning up the city.
A start has been made and there is no good reason
why every house of bad repute and every Bookkeeping
joint and every place where illicit hooch it manufac-
tured should not be wiped out permanently. Both the
sheriff's office and the city police office have indi-
Gated good faith.
One strong feature of this statute is that the own
er of the property can be reached, which has been
impossible heretofore. The property owner must
know for what purpose his property is being used, and
he is made responsible also.
With the power to declare immoral and law break
ing institutions nuisances, on complaint of any citi-
zen, and compelling action on the part of officials,
brings abatement within the reach of the people who
desire the law vindicated and the morals of the COM
munity maintained.
The punishment of offenders under this law is ade-
quate. There are teeth in the statute, and not false
ones at that. One point for property owners to study
closely is the power given the court to get the fine
and costs out of the property declared to be a nui-
sance, and the closing of the building for a year, that
1t may live down its bad reputation.
1t is going to be somewhat of an undertaking for
either tenant or landlord to get by with nefarious
practices in the future, with officers willing to do
their duty and citizens who are alert.

AS FRANCE SEES 1T NOW.

France is gradually coming TO an understanding Of
many things of which she was previously in igrpr-
uation is somewhat reflected in Barron's regular Paris
letter which is here abridged:
"Viviani went to the United States to see IL the
League of Nations could be saved. The result was
emphatic declaration from Washington that not only
was the League of Nations a dead letter in America,
but the whole Versailles treaty a document to which
the United States would never assent Lausanne, the
editor OF lie Matin, who accompanied Viviani, has
begun to enlighten the French people and show them
how they were fooled.
the American and French censorship was Just as eff
fective during the peace negotiations as during the
war; that France was not permitted to know the stand
ing of Mr.. Wilson in the United States: was never in
formed that the senators of the United States had
signed n declaration against the proposed League of
Nations.
"When in private conference certain Americans in
formed the French leaders of the situation in the
states the reply was: We must take the risk and de-
pend upon Mr.. Wilson to put it through over the head
of the Senate.
aNow as Frenehr1en sit down to study their well
bound volume of the treaty Of peace so inscribed in
both French and English that nobody may say whether
the English text or the French text holds the correct
idea, they find, after analyses with indices and mathe-
MATES, that the 440 articles are all words, and with
nothing tangible for France; that only five Of the
articles, and these toward the end, aim at a guaranty
Of executions; and that these are guarantees Of in
executions" under which it is declared that the guar
antics cease in fifteen years and that occupation of
guaranty may be cut to ten years or five years, or to
no time at all provided Germany is good.
'The Frenchman now secs Mr.. Wilson's idealism,
us akin to the dreams of Jean Jacque Rousseau, where
all the people can do what they like in 'uncrystallized
anarchy; the various small states and 'self-deter-
mined peoples Mr.. Wilson set up being just trouble
breeders for the rest of Europe, destroying all pre-
vious business and economic lines"

THE HIRED MANS WINNINGS.

The change that has come over the dream of those
who flocked to the big industrial centers a few years
ago and their present exodus to the rural sections is
thus related by the New York Herald.
THAT there is a disposition on the part Of many
men who n year ago would not consider work outside
the centers of population to take jobs as farm hands
is reported by various observers. This is an encour-
aging development and suggests an Improvement in
farm conditions.
"In the old days farm work in lost parts of the
United States was synonymous with drudgery. From
sun-up to dark was the working day for many farm
hands, and only those who have gone through a spring
planting or an autumn harvesting under the old con.
ditions can. appreciate the strain such toll imposes.
Nowadays farm labor has been systemhtized and made
easier in many respects.
/, With changed conditions in the country and & real
izatfon that much of the attraction of the cities was
artificial, men who were drawn to the towns by war
industries are turning to the farms again. Shorter
hours and good wages have also gained for the farms
recruits from the ranks of factory hands on part time,
and within the last two months many a man has been
grateful for the education acquired on the farm. 1t
has been q satisfaction for him to be able to say the
mysteries of milking or hitching a double team were
an open book to him.
"The man who sticks to the soil may never have
as large a bank account as some of those who stay
close to the paved sidewalks and streets, but he will
have the pleasure of living in the open and if he is
the owner of even the smallest farm, bought with the
proceeds of the labor of his hands, he will derive from
it a satisfaction which only those who have experienced
the keen joy of walking on their own land can
fathom."

BACK TO THE WALTZ AND rwo-srEp.

Dancing reform has travelled as far west as Chicago
and when Chicago reforms, there is hope for the rest
of the world. All the wild shimmy stuff and the wab-
BILE and the weary wiggle are just about passe, in
dulged no more by the undomesticated women of the
four hundred group who have followed the example
set by the maids and chauffeurs' Wednesday night
dancing club. The old bowery stuff from the east and
the Cactus Liz stunts from the west, the public demon
stration of affection, the jowl exposition, these and
all the long list of disgraceful antics that have de-
graded a healthful and pleasant exercise have been
cast out, and along with returning sanity comes the
dignifed waltz and two-step.
The familiarities which seemed to be of greater in
terest to the participants than the main object of the
gathering have been abolished, and they have gone
back to wearing them again instead of parking them
IN the cloak rooms.
1t is a good sign. The moral pendulum is swing
ing back. Directly 4 boisterous state of intoxication
will be frowned upon in the best circles. Even now
such performances are regarded as a breach of good
manners and 4 mark of m-breeding, in the lower
strata of the social formation.
Doubtless this is the place to begin the rebuilding
process And this is the diversion of the people which
has attracted the greater number and has gone to the
extreme in cxcesssp and therefore the most in need
of reform

BACK TO H LAW.

"And now Mr.. Bryan, after a pr~otracted excursion
into the fields of politics and sociology, returns to the
practice of the law" says the Washington Star. "He
has again hung out his single. Mr.. Wilson's exam
pie is catching"
"Mr. Bryan is so interesting a man and has run
so interesting and distinguished a course, observers,
in a perfectly friendly way and spirit, sometimes in.
dulge in speculation about him. Was he cut out for
the bar, for politics, for reform in general on Law
lines, or for the pulpit?
"He has figured in all four fields with much sue
cess. He was succeeding at the bar when he turned
to politics. That he has succeeded in politics is I'M
~deniable, although failing to reach his goal-the
presidency. That he is a distinguished influence in
reform circles is equally as plain a fact. And now
and then he has spoken in churches with an effect
which pulpit orators have confessed.
M Bryan's return to the bar comes at a time when
the law beckons most invitingly. Disputes, about do
nestle as well as foreign affairs, are multiplying.
There is abundant business for men educated for court
procedure. International law in particular was never
before so promising of reward for those qualified by
study and experience to follow its course and in
tricacies.
"The Washington bar has had three notable acces-
sions in a short time-Robert Lansing, Woodrow VIII
son and now William j. Bryan. Mr.. Lansing returned
after an absence of several years spent in the state
department As a lawyer, he is not making his de.
but in town"

CAN'T THEY BE SAVED?

Sheridan has just emerged from the second shock
ing case of moral depravty and high school delin-
quency and Laramie wakes up to find a similar case
on her hands.
These affairs are becoming so frequent and com
mon, everywhere, that we wonder sometimes what
parents are thinking about these days. What they
arc doing to protect their girls and boys from lives
that in future must mean simply immortality and crime
for most of them
The future of the race, the citizenship, the Amer
lean home, in fact all that is worth while on earth is
involved in the present lamentable situation. Is there
no means of leading the youth Of the country back
20 the pathway Of morality, seriousness and safety?
