TO SECURE BETTER COOPERATION.

The governor has called a meeting of the county
attorneys OF the several counties of the state to gather
at Cheyenne on August 20. The object of the con-
vention is to inquire into the cause of lax law enforce
ment and formulate plans for cooperation of the state
law enforcement department and the county enforce
ment officers.
1t would be judged from this particular move that
the state enforcement department is not meeting with
the success the governor was so certain it would last
January and February, when the state police bill was
before the Legislature.
The weaknesses of the plan of compelling enforce
ment OF law remain the same as pointed out at the
time and a practical test has verified the contentious
against such a measure.
The state enforcement commissioner visited Cas-.
per the other day, and while it is the banner county
are some fourteen joints in the city where the prod
uet is dispensed openly, the commissioner passed us
mp just as if we were entitled to a clean bill of health.
The sheriff of the county recently resigned his Of
fee, giving as a reason that he could secure no support
from the public in his effort to suppress criminal
acts.
Here was an excellent opportunity for the state
force to cooperate. 1t still exists.
There are at least two counties in the state, where
bootleggers and pokerplayers are very scarce, made
SC by the quality of sheriffs they have. Those coun.
ties are johnson and Sheridan, and the sheriffs arc
Stevenson and Thomas. Rum runners give those
counties a wide berth and home brewing and gambling
is reduced to the minimum. These officers are regu.
lar ones. The law is the only suppotr they ask and
ur der it they go out and do their duty.
The state will be interested in the forthcoming con-
venton of county attorneys, for there is no one but
hopes for law enforcement regardless of how discour-
aged he may be under present circumstances

MoNpELL ANNOUNCES CANDIDACY.

Frank Mondell has notified the hepuDncanS OF Wy
oming through National Committeeman Patrick Sui
Ivan and State Chairman Blake Kennedy that he
will be a candidate for nomination for United States
senator before the state primary next year. This is
the first word Mr.. Mondell has said upon the subject
himself, all the rest has been said by the press of
the state.
The Tribune was in hopes he would decide to re-
main in the house and continue as floor leader or take
the next step up and become the speaker. Which in
our opinion would have placed him in n position of
greater power under the government and one OF
greater usefulness to his country, and his state. For
he would have worn the honor worthily. In our con-
sideration of the situation we gave no thought to his
personal ambition for a seat in the senate. Our
concern was for the prestige of the state, and the
welfare of the Republican party. These things are of
higher Importance and should be served first. If they
could fit in with a candidates ambition all the bet
ter.
We could not agree with brethren of the press, that
under the senate's organization Mr.. Mondell, a new
member, could possibly reach a position of power in
that body for some years to come and Wyoming hav-
ing reached the top in both houses of congress, it
was unwise to disturb the existing situation.
To Mr. Mondeli's nomination and election as United
States senator the Tribune has not mad the slightest
objection nor the remotest idea of opposing him
in realizing an ambition in every way praiseworthy.
The mere fact that Mr.. Mondell could not, for rea-
sons of his own, fulfill the program we had marked
out for him, does not mean that we would pout about
it. 1t may be that the way he has chosen will prove
equally as good as the way we wanted him to go. In
any event he will %supplant a Democrat in the senate;
and after all, they are the fellows we are cunning
for in the ultimate showdown.
We have said, with much pride, on more than one
occasion that Frank Mondell is an honest man. Every
time we have said it, it has been the truth, and he
has fully sustained the reputation we ascribed to him.
1t is still the truth. Frank Mondell is not only honest
but he is stubborn. He has had his way in his can
didacy for the senate.
Wea re not contentious about an issue when it
is closed. And when Frank Mondeli is nominated
work of making Mr.. Mondell United States Senator
from Wyoming.

HAS ULTERIoR MOTIVE.

There has been quite an amount OF heated argument
INDUCED and puritanical propaganda spread through
out the Republic respecting the garb, mode of wearing
the hair and the employment of certain articles to
enhance or restore the facial attractiveness of females.
No sooner Is the campaign going good, with some hope
of impressing the sex generally as to what would be
best for them and more pleasing to the conservative
wing of the party, than some radical blurts out a lot
of stuff that spills the beans all over the floor.
Such a Bolshevik is the Philadelphia Ledger man
who writes the light literature for that great journal
He is clearly making a bid for the woman vote or else
IS a silent partner in a beauty parlor, ready-to-wear
emporium or a barber shop. His talk is perfectly ri
diculous and to confirm its idiocy it is reproduced.
Here is what he says:
There is, as we hitherto have noted, some acrid
comment on the young woman who hobs her hair. It
is not general and it comes mostly from the volun-
tary and self-appointed saviors of the human race.
We remember, somewhat dimly, it is true, that in the
early SOS the fashion of shortening the hair on the
feminine poll swept the country as an epidemic. 1t
must have been an epidemic in its form, because it
penetrated the remote rural environment which at that
environed US. The fashion then was to clip it
close to the ears. Nothing happened, and after a time,
the ladies', God bless EN-, permitted it to grow again.
We are very firm in the conviction that nothing is 60
in to happen now.
There is also some criticism of women's dress.
Since many will want to know what we think about it.
we take occasion to observe that, on the whole, we
find it very satisfactory. We think the dear things
should wear corsets-not the chain armor of former
days, but the modern and comfortable girdle. A cor
set controls what Mrs. Willsie doubtless would de.
scribe as the FLASHING" effect and conserves the fig
ure. We think young girls of Is or so should employ
restraint in the use of, shall We say, cosmetics. But

Nation Is ''Up Against IT.
War ?NeverAgain, He Says
Deplores Cost of Embassy;
Asserts His Country Is in
Bad Shape Economically.

Baron Edmund Won Thermann, Ger
nany's hrst diplomatic representative
to the United States since the de-
rarture of Count Won Bernstein. ar
rived yesterday on the Holland
American liner Hellig Olav. which
oocked at Fifteenth Street, Hoboken.
He will not attend the Washington Con-
ference on the Limitation of Arma-
ment. but will serve as acting envoy
sentative is appointed. He will serve
then as counselor to the German en-
bassy in Washington.
In his first statement to representa-
tives of the press Baron Won Thermann
spoke particularly of the economic con-
ditions existing in his country to-day
and how these conditions had affected
the personnel and appearance of Ger
nany's diplomatic corps.
Baron Wears Battered Cap
The baron wore rather battered
black and white cap. aNtatcck tie. a
gray suit, with vest whic. did not
match the suit, and trimmed glasses.
which ho explained were only gold
filed
Because OF the low rate Of t,he
mark and the high cost of the AmerN
can dollar. it is going to be a great
hardship for the German government
to run an embassy here" he said. "But
as for the much talked of reparations,
Germany will try to pay. Tho govern
1nent has decided to pay as long as it
is possible to do so. And as long as
Germany can pay anything, she Will
pay to the Allies.
''The economic condition of the Ger
man people as a whole is bad. Those
on salary or who are unfortunate In
having to live on their incomes are. in
the American phrase, up against it.
"Why it it that if the German in
dustries are working at 100 per cent
capacity the mark should continue 10
be down. he was asked.
THAT is not true" Baron Thermsnn
replied. "You people have some false
ideas concerning Germany, and do not
understand the conditions. There may
be few concerns working 100 per
cent, but the majority are working only
80 or 40 per cent Of their efficiency,
while thousands are working on 10
per cent or less basis.
Germany Called Disarmcd
On the subject OF the German mill
tary status, the new German diplomat
said. France has nothing to fear from
Germany; Germany is absolutely dis
armed We have less than 100000 in
aue aiiASu ioiSes' anu tiey arc i'iii i.S*''
We have delivered all our arms ana
ammunition to the Allied Commission,
and even if that were not so Germany
would not care to enter another war.
Germany is no longer militaristic
nation. The people do not want war,
though there is no doubt that there ia
some bitter feeling in Germany against
France because of the firm belief that
France is preparing to take the entire
west bank of the Rhine, just as. she
took the Saar coal fields"
Baron Won Thermann has been in
diplomatic service about ten years, hav-
ing been formerly an attache at
Madras. Spain. He was lieutenant
of cavalry during the war. He served
on the Eastern front, where he was
wounded and captured bv the Russians,
