SPEAKING OF THE GOVERNOR

For the information of the wheatland Times It Is
stated that the basis of criticism of Governor Carey
is not because of any personal disagreements as sug-
gested by that newspaper; but because of things done
and omitted to be done by him since Mr.. Carey be-
came the governor. And in each instance where CEN
sure was deemed proper specifications have always ac-
companied it.
Whatever influence Tho Tribunes attitude may have
upon public opinion with reference to Carey, it may
be noted that the governor himself, his defenders, ex-
cusers and sycophants have, none of them, been able
to refute or even justify the acts and things Of which
complaint has been made. Let The Tribune's in
fuence be what it may, the influence of the numerous
other newspapers and citizens over the state may be
sufficient to give to the people some idea Of the short
comings of the governor; and surely these would have
other and different reasons for criticism, unless per-
chance The Tribune's influence Is greater than that
for which The Times gives it credit.
As for the law enforcement department urged by
the governor and jockeyed through the Legislature.
The Tribune has openly opposed it from it's inception,
because it seeks to duplicate costly machinery al
ready in existence and competent to do the work if
the governor himself had the nerve to compel negli-
gent officers to perform their duty.
II the Roach bureau made such a glorious record
dragging in some f~orty-two bootleggers during Octo-
Der, what excuse has it got for not making some show
ing during the previous six months of its existence?
One small splash does not make the Roach depart
nent efficient nor does it justify its expense to the
state.

THE CURSE OF "mooNsHINE."

Making and ~peddling moonshine whisky is a curse
confined to no particular part Of the country The
radical change Of habits and customs of the country
attempted by plunging the millions into bone dry from
soaking wet was bound to find many unwilling to 60
along with the procession and while improvement may
be noted in general prohibition conditions there yet
remains enough to evoke complaint from every quar-
ter.
Pennsylvania is one of the most difficult states to
bring under control because of its large foreign popu-
lstion and many towns and large cities and the news
papers cry loudly at condition. Tie Myersdale Re
publican expresses sentiment entertained by hundreds
Of other newspapers. when it says:
Law enforcement IS a crying necessity. II those
able to do the job, it is time to fill their positions with
those who can and will. 1t Is a poor policy to have
officials who cater to bootleggers and the owners Of
watts and stills. The sober, law-abiding members Of a
community have some nights, and their right to rea-
scnable safety on the streets and highways is real and
not imaginary.
'The Eighteenth amendment is now a pars of the
basic law of the land. If that law continues to be
winked at by public officials and disregarded by citi-
gems, law and order in general more and more will go
aglimmering. Especially is this the case in reference
to the Eighteenth amendment, for alcoholic indulgence
breeds other crimes.
"a citizen is not loyal to the best interests of his
community when he deals indulgently with his neigh
boris practice of making or selling alcoholic liquors.
Loyalty to that ~neighbor may seem to require that he
remain quiet, but loyalty to hundreds Of other neigh
bors and friends who are law-abiding requires that he
inform the authorities of this public menace. When
citizens generally come to hold the safety and well
fare of the community in higher esteem than the Grim
inality of the lawless, the making and selling of booze
will become a more dangerous business. 1t is to be
hoped that not so many more will need to be killed
before citizens get this point of view.
Likewise, it is easy to be too indulgent with those
who commit crimes while under the influence of hq-
uor. The drunken driver of a car that brushes tn
life out of n child or knocks a family over a ~precipice
may expect people to say, 1T was only an accident;
the poor fellow was drunk But such federation viii
not give back the life that is destroyed nor take away
the gnawing grief of relatives. When an accident oc
ours which IS caused by drunkenness the one who
causes it should be prosecuted to the full extent of
the law. 1t is more right that the suffering should fall
upon him who is guilty of folly and crime than upor
those who are wholly innocent. Prosecute to the ut
most would be a good slogan for all to adopt in ref
erence to the entire booze business.o

VIOLATES TRUTH AND FACT.

As a writer of cortemporaneous history. Josepb P.
Tumulty is a failure, because of gross inaccuracy. He
has attempted to write a history of Woodrow Will
son not from the standpoint of truth but from what
he desired the truth to be. In the chapters already
given to the public, the self appointed historian has
SO garbled the facts and misrepresented well known
incidents about which there can be no dispute or con-
troversy as to bring ridicule upon himself and sus-
rcion upon his works.
Mr.. Tumulty was for ten years Mr.. Wilson's secre-
0ry two years as governor Of New Jersey and eight
years as president, has access to all the Wilson files
and should be, if he cared to be painstaking, in posi-
ton to at least relate facts in connection with such
siekening adulation as he sees fit to burden his early
chapters.
Such well known incidents as the retirement of
Ltndley M. Garrison from the Wilson cabinet and the
Vera Cruz fasco long since established in fact have
been treated with such apparent romancing that every
sehoolboy in the land will smile.
The Garrison matter was disposed Of by Mr.. Gar.
r1son himself at the time and the correspondence with
the president is certainly plain enough to indicate that
1t was not insistence by Mr.. Gsrrison upon a policy of
intervention in Mexico but the absence of any policv
whatsoever. As for the Vera Cruz affair Rear AL
niral Ffske felt called upon to keep history STRAIGHT
by giving the public the facts from the records.
Other violations of truth and fact equally as amor
ent and foolish may be found in other installments of
the Tumulty history, all of which DESTROYS its value
is a work of reliability.
Mr.. Tumulty has attempted to fix Woodrow Will
sons place in history ahead Of time and has tried to
fx that place arbitrarily without awaiting the YER
diet Of time and the settlement of questions of fact
upon which the final judgment of Woodrow Wilson
viii be based.

OLD FASHIONED SUNDAY.

Anything old-fashioned is usually scoffed at now
adays, and yet some of the finest things that ever
blessed human existence belong to the old-fashioned
era" says the Washington Post.
'The old-fashioned Sunday was one of the charms
of our civilization while it lasted. The custom of go
ing to church on Sunday was then in vogue to a great
extent; more so than it is today. The old folks really
made the day a holy one. All dressed up in their Sun
day best was the phrase that described it. Now
adays, because folk are dressed up all the time and
because places that are open on week days are open
also on Sundays, there is little difference between the
Sabbath and any other day. In an age not so far back
it was different. Sunday was really an event
I'VE shall probably never return to the simpler way
of living. but it would be a great thing for all con-
cerned if we could get back to the old-fashioned Sun
day. Not that we advocate blue laws or anything like
that for the old-fashioned Sunday was not a blue Sun
day by any means. It was, on the contrary, a sweet,
wholesome occasion, when everybody forgot the cares
of the ~workaday world and entered into a spirit OF
worship to the Deity and good fellowship among
mortals."

more rigid than heretofore thought possible The need
Of personal effort and economy is also being increas-
ingly recognized In giving q days work for q days pay
and In care as to personal expenditure. Business men
and executives now recognize that henceforth they
must give the most through personal attention and
application to their enterprises
Some part of the recent gain in business Is unques-
tionably q result Of seasonal demand. Permanent i'm
provement depends to a large extent on foreign buy
ing power, and even more on the adjustment Of con-
ditions under which the farmer operates The last
three years have clearly shown that the European sit
untion can be stabilized only by the political and eco
ncmic efforts of the countries concerned Domestsc
conditions can be bettered by steady determination
on the part of corporations and individuals to secure
greater efficiency and to practice greater economy
This will result in gradual readjustment of the bur-
den of price inequalities now resting on the farmer.

TO INDUCE A LITTLE SPEED.

Move along week" is the newest thing in weeks.
Il is exactly what its designation implies. Designed
to keep everybody and everything on the move and
things generally speeded up. No loafng along the
strests, no gossiping on the corners, no storytelling
in the Offices, shops and stores, no soldering on the
job, tarrying on the works or delaying the game. 1t
goes far enough to call for an observance of the rules
Of the road in driving on the public streets and to re-
member to keep to the right, on the sidewalks.
There is no end of things that can be done to save
time and keep things going in a move along week. And
in a financial way think of the dollars that can be
earned and saved rhen the notion takes violent hold
OF a large group II workers, who instead of leaning
on their shovels hop to it and make the dirt fly.
Move along" week is a good idea. It is some.
thing that has been sadly needed to stir people up to
a sense Of the time wasted and lost. It is SO valu-
able an idea that it ought to be kept in force for fifty.
two weeks in toe year.

scHwAB is THRILLED.

Charles NJ. Schwab of the Bethlehem Steel COM
pany, one of the worlds largest concerns, favors dis
armament in spite of the monetary loss it will occa-
sion to his great industrial institution. Mr.. Schwab
is a patriot first, a big business captain afterward. He
proved this during the war.
Of the Hughes plan he says:
81 am the head of the largest war materials manu-
featuring works in the world. The shipyards of my
company build more naval ships than are built in any
other yards under one management in the United
States. But, 1 have been thrilled beyond expression,
as has every good American, by the brilliant and
statesmanlike scheme laid before the conference at
Washington by Secretary Hughes. The carrying out
of that plan may involve great monetary loss lin some
quarters, but such a thing as financial loss can be of
no consideration when compared to the inestimable
boon to mankind which would be involved in the real
ization of that magnificent plan"

MORE poDcINc.

Germany is whining again. On January Is a repara-
lions payment of s125, 100000 is due and payable and
thirty days later the export tax is due. The minister of
finance has already indicated that Germany cannot
meet the obligations; and if pressed there is no other
course than to go into bankruptcy.
Talk of such action is frivilous. Germany has not
been in such favorable economic situation as at pres,
cnt in her history. Her industries which were brought
to war basis of production are. running full time, she
is relieved of the tremendous drain for military and
naval construction and upkeep, her population is &C
tive and effective and there is practically no unem-
ployment.
All she has to do is to dig in and pay.
If she does not choose to do this then let her assign
for the benefit of her creditors. The allies will
promptly name Marshal Foch receiver and he will
s~traighten the business out in very short order and
discover the hidden assets and devote them toward the
settlement of claims owing.
If Germany prefers this plan she will be enter.
tanned. She cannot escape payment of the sums as
sessed against her, and she may as well be cheerful
about it first as last.

Farmers who have kept accounts of
expenses of growing each kind OF
crop, have found the practice of great
assistance in planning the following
years work and in saving expense
which they did not realize when they
neglected to do so. Many farmers
who have learned the advantages of
keeping account of production costs
of each crop have also learned the
advantage of having deposit in bank
and have acquired habits of thrift.
Recently at the National Stock
Yards in East St. Louis, sheep were
quoted at $3.50 hundred pounds and
it was said that no fat sheep have
been sold there on that basis since
1904. Prices at other Western mar
kets are said to be on par with East
St. Louis prices. The low price Is
ascribed to Western heavy shipments
and the condition of the wool mar
ket, while reported large imports OF
New Zealand and South American
frozen mutton also have exerted an
influence on the market.
