So long work can be done with horse more

was possible some time ago to provide treaty
that could have been gained by the Versailles treaty
to which could be added certain other stipulations
not provided for the United States in the agre ament
of Versailles.
The pact just concluded by its signing at Berlin
gives to the United States all the Versailles treaty
gives to the allied governments and secures proec-
ton for distinctive American interests which the
treaty of Versailles ignored. That constitutes VIC
tory of President Harding. for it made possible a
conveyance of all the elements which Lad differed
seriously because of divergent purposes and expec
tations.
Supporters Of the treaty of versailles-Mr. Will
sons thick-and-thin partisans-have been senced
because the Hughes-Harding document brings to us
all that is contained for advantage in the other
pact In addition 1t at least partially satisfies the IT.
reconcilabes in the senate because 1t protects those
neglected at Versailles. The supsf-rabid directors
who afflicted deeply with disability and disn-
clination to think have been given demonstration
that separate peace can be effected without
the military hand Of Germany in
flctng damage upon the continental territorial safe
ty of any of the allies.
If the senate ratifies the treatyas there is little
into force will be the approval of the German rechs
tag. But Germanys interest lies in amicabe rea-
tons with the United States there is little doubt of
the reichstags ratification. Then President Hard
ing will declare the state of wcr ended.

THE COTTON SITUATION.

People with hold-over cotton appear to be on the
road leading reasonable market. short acreage

lions have further curtailed the crop prospects AS
result the old crop is mounting the price ladder.
1t is to be hoped that large part of the old
crop is still in the hands Of the planter 1t would
be unfortunate If the Spectator is to reap all the
benefit
In any event, the banks of the south will be re-
leved Of heavy loans and conditions there will i'm
prove
This years crop shortage will be very hard on the
small grower-especialy the negroes of the South
A hard-tme winter awaits many of these unfortu-

Albuquerque should fight for a

GREAT IN HIS OWN RIGHT.

That inheritance of great name and large
wealth is not necessarily bar to personal achieve
ment is proved in the life and works of Peter Cooper
Hewitt the distinguished American scientist and in
ventor who died in Paris several days ago.
Proof was not needed but 1t can do no harm to
mention the fallacy which has wide currency Mr..
Hewitt kept alive the best traditions Of two highly
respected citizens of New York and increased the
honor In which their memory is held. But he shone
in reflected glory. 1t was by his own efforts,
through the exercise Of his own talents, that he
achieved distinction that will endure Likely the
names OF his grandfather and father were of small
aid to him in making his way in the practical world
in which he attained such prominent place.
The money they left to him was unquestionably Of
value in the prosecution of his investigation and re-
searches which resulted in contributions of vast
worth in the field Of electrical science But it his
innate character that enabled him to achieve these
triumphs penniless waif endowed with like charac
ter would have done well.

BY CIVIL PROCESSES.

Troops have been sent into the Mingo district In
West Virginia to preserve order President Harding
has exhausted moral suasion as law-enforcing in
fuence. Now he must resort to the military arm Of
the government to uphold law and order. This he
should do, regardless Of its effect upon individuals
IL milder methods unavailing
All people must be made to know that the rest
of us will the processes Of the constitution to curb
any of us who resort to Illegal means to enforce
what we may conceive to be our private rights.
1t is important that justice be done in the pro-
lection of private rights. governmental system
which fails in the approximate and reasonable pro-
lection such rights will prove itself ultimately to
be insufficient for the needs of the people. But we
can make no beginning toward the protection of pr-
yate rights unless we compel all men to abandon
force and depend upon the orderly processes of the
law for the redress of grievances the enforcement
of rights.
Such incidents as the Mingo affair go directly
to the heart of the ability of orderly government
to maintain itself.
The Journal is unfamiliar with the details of con-
dtons in the West Virginia coal fields 1t therefore
without an opinion to whether the miners or the
operators right in this instance Upon that ques-
ton we express no judgment But upon the PROPOSE
ton OF q resort to force by any group of men, we
have fixed and Interchangeable ideas 1t can not be
permitted with safety to our democracy.
Our republic has solved reasonably, the problem
of settling all disputes other than industrial con-
flicts. We have become accustomed to seeing the
courts take property rights which in dispute and
bestowng them where the Judgment of the court
dictates, Public opinion and the sheriffs office
enforce such DEGREES without breach OF the peace.
We will not have progressed in government to a
point where the of democracy is proven be-
yond question. until solve system which takes
such disputes the Mingo problem. before an i'm

It is the function of government to maintain order
and to settle controversies between its children,

sequences Of firm position. They too often equivo-

AROUT NAu, CLERKS

editor, Morning journal. I.
I note an editorial in this morn
ing's Journal under the heading,
"a Discrimination Against Albu-
querque," in which 1t is stated that
some two dozen railway mail clerks
have their homes in Albuquerque
and that the postoffice department
is altering runs in such way that
these two dozen families will be
taken away from here.
l have been connected with the
railway mail service at Albuquer-
que for fifteen years and there Is
not now and never has been a time
when the postofflce department
could remove two dozen railway
mail clerks from Albuquerque, and
as far as I know such a thing was
never contemplated.
The only way such a move could
be made would be in case the
Santa Fe" should route all its i'm
portant transcontinental trains
over the "Belen cutoff" To my
way of thinking such q move is
very improbable, but II such a
move should be made the Chamber
Of Commerce or any other civic
body could not prevent the postof-
flee department from moving the
clerks.
AS a matter of fact there are
forty-four railway postal clerks, in
GLIDING two transfer clerks, en-
ployed in the mail room at the sta
ton. with headquarters in Albu-
querque, and sixteen men run In
here from Trinidad, Colo.

A HARDING VICTORY.

Acceptance by Germany Of the treaty prepared
by Secretary Hughes gives pronounced victory to
President Harding on two outstanding points, VIC
troy which must contribute to his prestige. One is
that satisfactory peace may be negotiated irrespec
tive of the treaty OF Versailles the other that sep
arate paece with Germany may be concluded without
injurousy affecting the interests Of the allied ma
tons.
President Hardng's personal partisan friends
claim more They point to the treaty as proof that it
