SAVING A GREAT PARTY.

Every patriotic American, matter how
staunch republican he may be, will approve OF
the motive back of Mr. Bryans program for the
reorganization of the democratic party.
With all its faults the party system of politics
provides a salutary system of checks and balances
against dictatorship. No administration, however
sinister its motives win dare try the peoples pa
tience too far if it knows that there is strong,
well-organzed, energetic party ION the outside"
waiting to take advantage of every political abuse
or blunder that may be committed by those in
power.
For this reason, whether not we adhere to
its political principles, we must admit that the
annihilation of the democratic party would be an
unfortunate occurrence for the American nation
And fate little short of humiliation stares it
in the face, unless it's leaders take prompt action
to steer it away from the rocks that lie dead ahead
That its leaders realize the immnence of the danger
is clearly seen from the call for meeting of the
national committee and, more recently Bryans
program for the partys rehabilitation.
Most of will readily agree with Mr. Bryan
in many of his panks.
His peace program, while liberal enough, does
not take Americas sovereignty away from her
His idea that America should take the lead in
assembling the nations of the world in sincere
effort to bring about disarmament is also wise and
prudent
A national referendum before hostilities
are declared-save in case of invasion by a foreign
power-is merely applying the principles of democ-
racy to which all of us, in theory at least subscribe
Strict enforcement of the prohibition amendment
Is certainly desirable Otherwise let us amend
the amendment.
Most of us will cheer the plank against prof.
teering.
Recognition of the rights of soldiers and
sailors is likewise in accordance with the dictates
of the national conscience
Arbitration of disputes between capital and
labor is in tune with the spirit of the epoch
Gambling in foodstuffs is entirely repre-
hensibe Mr.. Bryan paints it.
Protection of the peoples bank deposits, main
tenance of the price of Liberty bonds at par,
strengthening of the farm loan bank law, abolition
of private monopoly, economy and efficiency, oppo-
sion to the repeal of the profits tax law,
reduction of taxation-especally for those i'll able
to bear it-all these measures likely to appeal
to the majority of the people.
The democrats showing the true American
spirit in proftng by their singing defeat of last
November.

CHICAGO BOARD OF TRADE

Chicago, Feb. 17.-Wheat traders

likelihood that the emergency
tariff bill would be- vetoed over
looked or ignored a possibility that
action by the president-elect might
change the outlook. Values sagged
from lack of support and closed
heavy, 214c to &c net lower, with
March 1851 to $16S15 and May
$1.59 to $1.59A. Corn lost u c to
&c and oats &c to 1c to l 1s c.
Provisions varied from 35c decline
to &c advance. ....
Except during the first few min
utes. the fate of the emergency
tariff attracted but little attention
in the wheat. fair buying was
ascribed to the fact that the bill
had finally passed but then the
subject seemed to pass out of no
tice. Bearish sentiment which
from then on dominated the mar
ket, was due largely to cooler
weather. a condition assumed to be
more or less a preventive of crop
damage by green bugs. Consider
able selling was based also on a
bank failure at Sioux City.
Increased rural offerings of corn
tended to weaken corn and oats.
Provisions averaged lower.

A FRIENDLY ACT.

The National University of Mexico, at Mexico
City, has donated SO Volumes chiefly of standard
modern Latin-Amercan literature and TRANSACTIONS.
to the University of New Mexico.
Although the gift originally due to the en-
terprise of Hannibal Ibarra Rojas, of the Spanish
department of the state institution, yet the liberal
response made by the national university to Mr..
Ibarras request for few standard and representa-
tive works of Mexican literature indicates the
friendly spirit of our neighbor
The Mexicans, as a nation, proud Of their
culture. They have frequently been misrepre-
scented by unsympathetic foreigners that they wei.
come any opportunity to show the better side of
their national character to outsiders.
Cordial relations between the two countries can
be materially furthered by scholarly courteses Of
the nature just brought about by Mr.. Ibarra.

MORE ENDURING THAN MARBLE.

"As a tribute to the dead, and service and an
inspiration to the living"
So runs the resolution passed Friday by Hugh A.
Carlisle Post No. IS, American Legion memorial
izng the legislature of New Mexico TO enact legis-
lation for the building Of combination library and
memorial hall. 1t is the plan of the legion to have
this memorial erected the campus of the state
university Trophies, memorials and tablets per-
petuatng the memory of New MeXcans who fought
in the world to be placed in it.
The resolution which bears the signature of
DIR. Royal B. Tracy and Frank w. Roberts, com
posing the committee resolutions recites that
the state university is in dire need Of library and
auditorium, and suggests the establishment of a
memorial hall-library a means of meeting prac-
teal present day needs while rendering deserved
homage to our heroes.
The thought of the legion is timely one and
wise.
Shafts of granite may crumble; statues OF
marble may totter and crash to the ground;
obeisks have fallen into decay; but the effect of
good books will endure long as time.

be erected in the memory of New MeXico's brave
sons will likewise have gone the way Of all earthly

planted there will bear fruit for incalculable gener-
! atoms to Gomez for what man say-"This

THE GUARANTEE OF MERIT.

The advertising of merchandise is the con.
suners guarantee of merit.
In his advertising the manufacturer over his
own name makes claims for his goods which must
be lived up to. Consumers look for the qualities
advertised, and if they fail to find Them promptly
transfer their patronage to another brand.
Advertising is two-edged sword. 1t gives the
consumers the advantage Of knowing exactly who
disapponts them. No realizes this keenly
than the manufacturer. So with him it is prn-
cipe of good business as well honor to make his
goods measure up to his advertising claims
Manufacturers, brought constantly before the
public by their advertised goods are usually men
of high character, who make their goods as rep
resented But in addition to this. the educational
force of advertising is such that the consumer is
assured of honesty and quality because every repu-
table publication and advertising agency demands it.
When the consumer buys unadvertised goods,

tired land commenced Immediately
to tell him of Noras accident and
Vivian Morton's call.
81 was so mortified, Tom! I had
on a big kitchen apron, and the
house smelled terribly of burned
grouse. Nora had spilled some
on the stove, and she has asked
us to dinner, and"
Don't talk so fast, Sue! Who
asked us to dinner Norah?'
mo, Don't be silly! Vivian Nor

have a dinner dress and some slip

1--WE won't go if you have to
spend any money!" He finished
my sentence for me. 81 had to
nav my insurance premium today
and it has strapped me for the rest

can't accept a single invitation
without blowing a lot of money
we can't afford, for fOl-der-rols,

to dread.
But Tom, l can't go without
something new to wear"
"Whats the matter with that
blue dress?"
"Why, l wore it to Mrs. Hender-
sons, then when they were here;
and that night Mr.. Crandell gave
his dinner" l explained.
"Three times! Suppose l only
wore a suit three times; what
would you think of me?"
"But it's different with a man! "
I exclaimed, 1.-The styles don't
change like a woman's do. Then,
too, they'd say l only had the one
dress and SO was obliged to
wear it."
Suppose they did! It's a per-
fectly good dress! Now for heav-
ems sake stop sulking; you'll get
no new buds for that dinner. Ii
YOU want to go with what you
have all right; otherwise Wen stay
at home" and he flung out of the
room and slammed the door.

"Our Peanut Politicians"

albuquerque, N. NJ, Feb. 16, 1921.
Editor of the Morning Journal:
The emergency tariff" that is
now being considered provides
that there shall be a duty of cents
a pound on peanuts. The commit
tee on finance in the senate and the
ways and means committee of the
house found that the price of pea
nuts should be about 6 u to cents
in order that the American pro-
ducer can make a fair profit.
After long investigation and
many hearings by the sub-commit-
tees of the two committees 1t was
proved that peanuts were being
imported and sold for the small,
unfair price of cents a pound.
Think, citizens and fair citizen
esses Of this great country OF ours,
that we have lost so much of our
patriotism that we do not even
raise all the peanuts that we con-
sumo! The honorable members of
these committees and these sub
committees after dong investiga-
ton intQ this disgrace and the
causes of it decided by an abso-
lutte majority that this evil must
be remedied. The honorable
members of these committees
were not empirical. They took
nothing for granted, they worked
many days, had many hearings,
and made their decision after a
long and careful study of condi-
tons; as befits the representa-
tives of free people. They found
that with duty of 3 cents a
pound the American peanut grow
ers can compete with peanut
growers of other parts of the
world.
1t is incompatible with Ameri-
can ideals not to be able to grow
peanuts. And while l dream of
our future greatness cannot con-
ceive of a world safe for dem
ocracy" without a tariff on pea
nuts.

they will spend long peaceful years
in their own shacks of tin or wood,

! .htnl that the merchant should
{ be assessed on his net output. Why
, should he be assessed on the Csti-
mated value of his stock of goods
the first Of the year. How does he
know what price this goods may
bring next fall or winter, or wheth-
er he may be able to sell it at all.
Shouldn't he be allowed to make
an estimate at the end of the var
after paying operating expenses,
they pay on the net output.
And the farmer in the Rio
Grande valley. l consider it unjust
to make a guess at what his farm,
machinery, etc, is worth. Even at
ter he plants a crop, it may be
washed away with the flood; and
if the grasshoppers and bugs don't
eat q good portion of the same, he
will be lucky. If he lives on dry
land farm, he will not be bothered
with the floods, and he may not be
bothered with enough rain to ma
ture a full crop. But suppose he
does, how does he know In Janu-
airy what price his crop may bring,
Certainly he is entitled to wait and
see what his crop brings after de-
Quoting operating expenses, then
pay his tax on the net output. The
same rule should apply to the
stockman. We know what he has
suffered during the past few years.
Can he sell his cattle and sheep
now for their appraised value last
year?
There is another fellow who
needs to be protected and that is
the small home buyer who buys
his home on the installment plan.
He should only be taxed on the ac-
tual amount which he owns in the
home, just as it is being planned to
tax the fellow who buys our state
lands. Why should he be taxed for
$4,000 worth of property when he
only owns an equity of $500 in the
same.
These are all good provisions,
gentlemen, but since they are so
good, why not pass them around
Don't hand them out to few and
cut the rest of us out.
