HE HAS KEPT HIS PROMISES

1t ought not to have been necessary
for President Harding to call atten-
ton to the accomplishments of his
administration; they speak for them
selves; the record is writ large that
all who run may see. But such is
the way of the world that those who
run nor those who loiter give much
heed to such things-and all possess
q truly wonderful capacity for for
getting. So if they are to know
whereof they grumble when taxes
come due it becomes necessary to re-
mind them.
The Harding administration be-
came heir to the duties of receiver
ship OF national affairs. The old
management was headed toward
bankruptcy and the more it struggled
the deeper it sank into the "welter of
waste" But along with the duties of
receivership the protection from in
reference by stockholders, which is
granted to receivers was not given:
the stockholders in our national af-
faiEs retain their privilege OF inter-
ferins. their support must be retained
or the task fails of accomplishment,
some job"
How many of US comprehend the
serious difficulties attending the re-
duction OF expenses in bureaucratic
Washington and the enforcing of a
budget system? Few, but it was d
tremendous undertaking., as all must
admit. and the President has done
what he promised to do. He has done
what he promised to do in the matter
of revenue and tariff legislation: he
has done as he promised with regard
to the treaty with Germany and more
than lie promised in calling the dis
armament conference. In the strenu-
Gus period of six months of his ad-
by him to cVade the responsibilities
he assumed when he became Presi-
dent.
Though some do say he summarized
what had been done in his letter to
Senator Mccormick because of the
coming election in New Mexico it is
clear that he has earned the right to
do so: that he told the truth about it
and it is the kind of truth of which
he need not be ashamed 1t ought to
have effect at this approaching cleo
ton, at any election where the ac-
complishments of this administration
may be under consideration

POLITICS IN NEW MEXICO

The Democrats are endeavoring to
make a showing in the approaching
senatorial election in New Mexico to
indicate that the Harding admins
tration has fallen off in popularity
the country over
Senator Holm O. Bursum. who was
appointed by the governor in the
place of Senator Fall resigned to en-
ter the cabinet, until such time as an
election might be held, is candidate
Mt the election Sept. 90 to fill out the
unexpired term. During his service
in the Senate he was a member of the
Senate elections committee which
voted to seat Newberry and the
Democrats arc trying to make this
appear as an issue in the election.
Although they may be able to give
this election an appearance of having
more of national significance than
really attaches to it. the fact is that
local matters will have most to do
with tho result
Seoator Bursum is said to have es-
trznged Mexican-born Americans
who compose a large part of the Re-
publican party in that State. through
his efforts which contributed to the
defeat Of the former governor. who
was Mexican In consequence a
split in the Republican ranks has
been made by the nomination of a
candidate representing the Mexican
wing OF the G. O. p. Meanwhile the
Democrats put forward one of their
strongest men. Richard H. Hanna,

One Answer to "Why?"

'DOStoh ANC"S buIeduIJ
Why the coal operators of Mingo
and Logan counties in West Virginia
have been defending themselves from
the attack of the United Mine Work
ers is easily explained. First, they
prefer to run their own business
rather than have it run from the
headquarters of the United Mine
Workers.
Secondly. they know that if the
United Mine Workers get control of
those mont union mines. this country
will be put in the same condition as
is Great Britain-liable to an abso-
lutte stoppage of Al coal production
at the whim of a labor union.
But why the non union workmen
should join with the operators and,
fully armed, oppose the union work
ers and their union organizers and
why they rallied by the thousand to
the defense of the non-union mines
against the United Mine Workers ar
my has not been made so clear.
For 20 years the mines in the non
union coal fields of West Virginia

In 1920 win payroll of 1S4S the
company returned 1881 names with
an average of s1,770 each for the year
For the first six months of this
year with 2503 men on the payroll the
average wage they received. exclu-
sive of general officers etc. has been
s141 per month or at the rate of APP
proximately s1.700 a year and this in

In the Pond Creek mines 375 men in

in 1920. SO men averaged 81, 734 and in
the first six months of this year, the
962 men on the payroll averaged s17S

Is it surprising, therefore. that
these non-union miners should
spring to arms and fight side by side
with their employers against the in
vading army of 5000 union strikers
and union leaders.

INSULT THE INTELLIGENT
SHOULD. RESENT

! Readers of the Journal will be in
terested in the opinion of The New
York Times. published in the column
of Editorial Comment respecting
criticism, emanating from the Demo-
cratic National Committee, of the
approaching conference to limit arm
aments.

that The New York Times supported

louder amen" on reading: The
whole thing is a partisan attack, an
effort to commit the Democratic party
to querulous, prejudiced and un-
patriotic attitude on national and in
ternational policies of momentous
possibility and scope" Most, we are
confident. will fully agree with the
Times that whoever is responsible
for that statement ought to tarry in
Jericho till his beard has grown to
his feet"
8 1t is not difficult, however, to COM
prehend the source of the cerebral
tons resulting in this outpouring,
1t is a genuine outpouring of that
spirit which has so often dominated
Democratic councils. the spirit of
criticism which seeks opportunity to
crticise regardless of merit, when
ever so doing may offer to the mar
row and perverted view of political
exploiting what seems like a partisan
advantage, however petty.
That statement is a boomerang and
Republicans might chortle in their
glee thereat We're they concerned
solely for mere party advantage. On
the contrary it is cause of profound
regret to every citizen, Democrats as
we'll as Republicans, who has the in
| telligence to understand that it gives
comfort to those who desire to see
the conference fail, or who wish
therein to secure some selfish gain, or
desire TO have the influence of the
United States in that conference i'm
