Too Wise a Bird

THE HONORABLE Patrick j. OConnor of Cas-
l. per, was entirely too wise and sagacious to per-
nit the use of his name for the governorship in
the hodge podge convention at Douglas. The astute
Patrick may have been an interested spectator or
he may have been the source of advice from a posi-
ton away back of the throne; but he certainly was
not in the bandstand beating the tom-toms.
Senator O'Conor, himself, is regular Democratic
rubernatorial timber, he knows it, and the old line
and right thinking brethren of his party recognize
the same fact; but Senator O'Connor knows other
things in politics as we'll. He knows that this is
not a Democratic year. That his party is yet too
lemoralized in morale, from recent trouncings, to
make any showing on the field of battle. He knows
also the extreme wisdom of keeping his own party
membership clean and free from entangling fusion
alliances against the day of return. He recognizes
the obvious acknowledgement of weakness in accept
ing or seeking the aid of the fifty-seven varieties of
isms as represented in the Douglas gathering.
Let us congratulated the Honorable Patrick j.
o'Connor on the possession of greater wisdom than
his fellows.
Let us commend him not only for his horse sense
but let us throw in a little admiration for the foxy
qualities he has exhibited.
IF the day of such calamity should ever arrive
hat wyoming should be punished with another
Democratic governor, and we had a choice in the
matter. which we will-not be likely to have, we
would chose the Honorable Patrick ]. O'Connor
He comes mighty near being the real thing.

A Homeless Ambassador

Henry p. Fletcher. ambassador to
Belgium. writes back home that hous-
ing conditions in Brussels are almost
as bad as they are in Washington,
ID. C. The ambassador and his wife
had a hard time finding a suitable
residence. OF course. If the United
States treated its foreign service as
other enlightened nations do. every am.
bassador and minister sent abroad
would find ample accommodations in a
residence owned by the United States
government And part of the residence
might be devoted to the official bust
ness OF the chief of mission. The
amount of money paid out for rentals
of foreign service buildings by this
government represents a large interes
rate on a sum sufficient to build our
own houses for that service. and even
then many of orr representatives
abroad nave to pay their own rent.
The time should not be far distant
when every foreign representative of
the United States may not he required

erners either in or out of congress.
He said. in part:
Mr.. President. I wish to say just
/ a few words in regard TO the pending
item. / would like to have my Demo
cratic friends from the South. before
voting upon this item. 10 consider that
the soy bean industry is n of the
most promising in the South. In my
judgment. as a successor to some ex-
tent, of cotton In the region which
is now devastated largely by the boil
weevil. 1t In extremely difficult, es-
pecially for a Caucasian. in the South
to make a living by planting cotton.
1 have looked into the question of
the soy bean considerably. and am con-
WINGED that a white man. in the cotton
portion OF the South where soy beans
grow better than they do in the north
ern portions OF the country, can by
the use of improved machinery mako
a great lei more money annually as
the result OF his labor than he could
possibly make from cotton"
1t had already been shown that i'm
mense importations OF soy beans ana
soy bean Gil from the Orient are n
menace to the development of a soy
bean industry here. After showing
the value of soy beans as a soil fer
%tilizer. Sen.to Ransdell continued:
81 wish to impress upon my friends
from the South. and especially those
along the Atlantic coast, where the
boil weevil is becoming SO bad. that
they have got to do something In that
section to fight that awful pest. They

other than cotton. They can get that
money crop from the soy bean and at
the same time save the tremendous
fertilizer bill they are now Obliged to
pay. The crop also will add materially
in producing fine hogs and fine beeves.
In n small way ] have had n few acres
of soy beans on my plantation. and l
know the nature of the crop. and thar
nothing fattens hogs more rapidly tina
the soy bean. Soy bean meal is a
splendid feed for beeves.
when the oil is extracted from soy
beans that oil makes a splendid SUBJ
stitute for paint.
1.-THE growing Of soy beans Is very
largely a new industry in our country.
We seek by tariff duties to build up
new industries. While to a great ex-
tent, the soy bean flourishes best in
hi South. there are certain varieties
which flourish in the most northern
state of the Union. I nm satisfied
that varieties will be developed which
I'LL flourish along the Canadian border
and every part of the Union will ul-
timately be able to grow this plant
successfully"
The Republican tariff bill provides
for protection for soy beans. but Sena
tor RansdeIl and others from agricul-
tural states desire an even greater
tariff than hat proposed-four enths
of a cen per pound.

Emotion Halls Digestion

Fundamental to all our other activi-
ties is that of digesting the food we
eat. for from that food is derived the
energy for the work we do.
The stomach and intestines receive
the food that is swallowed transmit 1t
from stage to stage along the alimen-
tary tract. mix 1t thoroughly with the
juices poured out by the digestive
glands and. when il has been properly
changed for passage through the in
festival wall, the intestinal motions
bring it into intimate contact with the
absorbing surfaces of that wall.
All these processes are completely
stopped in stages Of fear o. anger or
mitted us to look into animals while
they are digesting. If any great ex
element is occasioned the churnine
stomach becames a flabby inactive sac
the kneading intestines cease theil
motions. and the digestive glands nc
longer secrete the juices necessary tt
prepare the food for absorption. Thus
the whole ~beneficent process i.
brought to n standstil.
This cessation OF the digestive activ
tiles. first clearly demonstrated in low
err animals. has been proved true also
of human beings. And 1t is interest
ing to note that the workings of the
alimentary canal are not only stopped
during an outburst of rage. but do moi
start again for a considerable periot
Latter the emotional storm has passed
off-Walter b. Cannon.

A New Era
BY JOHN t. A

AS a direct result of the Washington
conference for the discussion of limi-
tation of ornaments. called by Presi-
dent Harding August IL, 1921 and
convened November IL, 1921, the fol
lowing have been accomplished facts.
Shantung is being evacuated by
Japan. The occupation of hat Chi
nese territory by a foreign power
made 1t a breeding place for in.
ternational differences which were
likely to develop into international
war.
The island OF Yap,-the nerve cen
ter of trans-Pacific cable and radio
communications n? longer under
h sole domination of Japan. The
cable and radio rights in that island
of the United States and other ma.
lions are now formally recognized and
guaranteed by treaties.
The open door" policy in China was
an American doctrine first proclaimed
by the United States to protect her
rights in h Far East. But. like the
Doctrine. it was never formal
ly recognized by the rest of the world
The nine-power treaty formulated al
the Washington conference pledged
the signatories to the recognition o.
this policy n its strict observance
This not only guarantees fair play tt
American rights in China but fair PLAY
to all nations and removed a mos
likely source of another world war.
The navies of the great maritime
powers have been limited as to thei,
future size; agreements have beer
reached regarding the destruction O
battleships already afloat and tn,
abandonment of tremendous nava
building programs necessitating ex
penditures annually of hundreds o.
millions of dollars. The naval apron

ference provided for an abandonment

The Lover

Ger shadowy gardens stepped in dey
A lattice stood atar.
AND from 1t shone across the night
A taper like a star;
A spider spun a filmy web
Below the ivied sill.
And in the wood a nightingale
Sang once and then was still.
A snowy moth came f1uttering
Toward the Turing light
And tangled in the spiders net
Its wings Of velvet white.
1t dangled in the moonlight pale
With airy cables tied.
Grail filaments but strong as steel,
And In the dawn II died.
Again upon the fragrant dusk
A window opens- wide,
And from It looks a lovely face
Red Tipped and starry eyed,
Drawn by the soft and lambert fire
That flickers in her glance.
I lean across the narrow sill
In tender dalliance.
My soul is tangled helplcssly
Within a golden
The loosened meshes silken fine
OF Arabella's hair,
And even as with kisses fond j
/ seal our plighted troth.
i know her eyes are candle flames
And I am but a moth.

ASSET or Liability, Which,

NOW THAT it is all done ana over and what fat
~ there is is in the fire, is the Non Partisan en-
dorsement of John b. Kendrick an alleged simon
pure Democrat, engineered by Hendricks friends
and managers at the Douglas convention, an asset
or a liability? 1t was no great trick to encompass
the endorsement. 1t was easy. The gathering rep
resented numerous political hopes, but II did not
represent them every strong. There was no central
idea of reform. No paramount issue to draw men
together in the Accomplishment OF a great purpose
If the convention was anything at all, it was a
small band of disgruntled, disappointed, halfoaked
Missionaries. Unable to cut a figure among former
associates, DESTROYS of making some sort OF a pub
lie noise, thirsting for a little recognition they
could not gain elsewhere. Their action and their
plattJr m prove the hopelessness of their cause, 1or
their pronouncemepts include almost all OF the un-
digested theories and notions men oil basic eco
nomic knowledge have cast aside as worthless long
ago.
Their action in surrendering their so-called party
to the uses and purposes of another party stagger-
ing and helpless from defeat, discredited and dis
organized by reputation, is evidence OF lack OF
faith in their cause and total absence oil high pun
pose in their hopes.
1t was purely and simply a bandwagon enter
tainment. The rush caught no one from the out
side. 1t was performed by those who would have
supported Kendrick in any event-Democrats, So
c~ialists, Non-Partisan dreamers with here and there
a renegade Republican unfit to longer mlngie with
the Lords chosen.
There are in Wyoming as elsewhere men of the
highest honor holding membership in the Demo
cratic party. Splendid citizens, desiring right
things in public as we.Sas private life. They want
no such Impossible theories lasteheu upon uehi
party and attached to their candidates such as per-
petrated by the Douglas delegates. They nave
pride in their party and they can take no pride in
the outcome at Douglas.
. Then too an honest Democrat will not approve
the sacrifice of every other party interest and can
didate TO the sole interest of Senator kendrlck.
That is Just what was done at Douglas and the en-
gineers in charge are gloating over the fact.
>. Will the selfrespecting Democrats of Wyoming
hold their noses and swallow the dose prepared for
them or will they rebel?
VIII the association of a great political party
with an upstart of doubtful percentage so affront
the members of the former that they will r%epudiate
the companionship and rebuke their party for its
lapse from the proprieties?
If regular Democrats have any pride and spunk
remaining they certainly will refuse to act with
their party under the Circumstances.
Senator Kendrick has purchased a liability not
an asset. We should worry. Let him do it.

after all nations begin to experience
the full effects OF tho naval holiday.
Seven treaties We're formulated at
tbs conference. They were submitted
By President Harding to she se..ase
February 10, 1922. Their ratification
was COMPLETED by the senate within 40
days from that date, a record OF
prompt cooperation with the chief OK
ecutive in treaty making that has new
err been eaualled In the history of the
United States senate.
These are the moro practical and
material results which nave followed
the Washington conference. but great
sr than these has been the effect upon
the worlds mental processes. The
conference changed the thought of the
leading nations from preparation foi
war to construction for peace. from.

If the burdens upon all peoples.
The Washington conference by com
mon consent of all mankind marked
the beginning of a new era In world
affairs. presages the dawn of that
day when international differences will
be amicably adjusted rather than sub
mitted to the a~rbitrament OF war. Tho
conception of h Washington confer

ton Of Its treaties-in all of which the

The Soy Bean Industry

Although the solid South" is rep
resented by Democrats in the senate,
there are two protectionist Democrats
representing Louisiana in the upper
branch of congress. They are pro.
~tectionists not only in determination
of tariff policies on sugar. the prin-
cipal commodity of their state affected
by the tariff. but also in regard to
other products which come into com
petition with imported commodities.
Recently, when the senate had under
consideration h proposed tariff on
soy beans. Senator RansdeIl of Loui.
siana. supported an amendment by
Ladd OF North Dakota. proposing an
increase in the import tax. In a brief
address he presented a line of argu-
ment h a might well appeal to South.

A Song of Optimism

IHIS LITTLE SONG of optimism emanates from
the department of commerce after a country
wide survey of business. Fundamental conditions
In this country are for the most part favorable. The
agricultural situation is particularly good. The
construction industry is having the biggest boom
ever known, and this carries with it a large mum
Der of contributory industries. Employment has
reached a point where a scarcity of men is reported
at some points. The financial situation is favor.
able, with abundance of money at low rates of in
terest. With due care in the exercise of business
Judgment the period of prosperity can be extended
without the corresponding excuses so evident in
1919 and the early part of 1920.
The exercise of business judgment includes the
exercise of political judgment in voting at the con
gressional elections this fall. This country is on
the uproad. Evidence is piling up daily to support
that assertion. If the Democratic party has the
slightest idea that the country is going to spike this
upward movement by taking control of congress
away from the Republicans and putting it into the
hands of a party which would assuredly create a
deadlock with the chief executive, it displays less
political acumen than it has in the past, and that
was mighty little. The march toward normalcy
will not be halted.
