news expressed by a correspondent who had some
thing to say with reference to the operation of the
state law enforcement commission in his part of
the state which reflected no credit upon the head of
that department of state activities.
Right OF the bat the Times came 10 the conclu-
sion that the Tribune and JoHS HAY and every
body else, except I.oBERT CARET and the editor of
the Times, desired the law enforcement department
abolished.
1t so happened that the Tribune made no such
statements as the Times attributes to 1t, and
throughout the campaign, so far as heard from no
one heard Mr.. HAY say anything in criticism of the
law enforcement department. What a correspond
ent, writing for the paper, said is another matter
altogether.
Since the question is up, there have been many
complaints and no end of criticism from both cor
respondents ana newspapers in various sections Of
the state. There is nothing new or specially alarm
ing about slams at the law enforcement depart
ment. It has been going on for a long time.
1t was said at the time of the passage Of the
measure by the legislature, that the chief resaon
Governor CAREY desired It was because he lacked
the nerve TO use the power at his command to com
pei local peace officers TO enforce the law and lacked
a convenient person or board 10 which TO pass tho
buck.
1t is too bad that the Tribune was unaccommo-
dating enough to fail TO do or say the thing the
Times desired and afford it a real occasion to de-
liver a sermonette.
Next time we will try and do better Meanwhile
the Times can try its sermonette on the correspond
ent who finds the enforcement department a failure

The Fate of Traitors

THERE is NOT a state in the union where a man
L can be reelected to the governorship or to any
other executive Office if he fails in his duty In the
of life and property.
1t is true that an emergency exists which calls
for unusual courage and ability, but the exercise
of unusual courage and ability is what governors
are for. In ordinary times ordinary men can per-
form executive functions. Men who have sought the
high office of governor Of q state and have been
entrusted with its duties and responsibilities have
assumed to possess more than ordinary fitness for
the position. Moreover, they have taken a solemn
oath to support the laws and constitutions of their
states as chief executives. Upon them, therefore,
rests a special responsibility which they cannot
evade.
The maintenance of peace and order is primarily
a state and not n national governmental function.
Only when the power of the state proves inadequate
is the national government called upon to act. This
fact should and will be kept in mind by the citizens
of the several states who will hold their own state
executives responsible for the exercise of every pos.
sible power in the preservation of peace and main
tenance of public safety.
All the world despises a coward. Not even the
criminal has respect for the officer of the law who
shirks his duty. All the world despises a traitor.
Not even among the benefciaries of his treason
could BENEDICT ARNOLD find associates.
If the call of duty will not induce an executive
TO enforce the laws the fear of obloquy should spur
him to action. The public servant who becomes a
traitor to his trust has no future better than the
ostracism and ignominy of BENEDICT ARNOLD unless
he has the decency to shorten his career by follow.

IT means the women Of Jane Austen
are coming bank-as oon as they can
relearn the Jane Austen ~alk-and
we shall lei again that .swanlike glide
produced without a ripple OF the skirt,
that made tho youthful Dundreary
whiskers of our grandfathers culver
with emotion.
"Ail the novels Of that period tell
US how captivating the women then
were, and we might attribute It TO
their long skirts II 1t wasn't that they
ave been equally captivating in short
ones. They used to tell us hat fem
mime mystery had much to co with
feminine charm but this generation
has concluded that feminine mystery
hasn't anything 10 do with feminine
clothes. Let skirts be long or short,
feminine mystery never runs out but
tends to increase II anything. This
decree OF the French dressmakers
shows that.
why they are doing this ruthless
thing nobody knows; maybe It's only
to show us they can do It. Maybe
there's a commercial reason behind It,
and they wearied OF seeing women
make a new skirt simply by turning
up the hem of the old one. There

and skirts became newer and newer

Two Essentials

IF VOTING and taxpaying are not to be made a
Il mockery every adult citizen who is not a public
charge should pay some form of tax.
1t should be made a matter of honor that men
and women who get all the advantages and protec-
ton of government and make a living in a common
wealth should pay something.
What better certificate of citizenship or proof of
registration to entitle one to vote at an election
that imposes taxes or issues bonds than the fact
that you have a tax receipt?
Another essential Of development affects indus
trial onditions-reductio of unemployment to a
minimum system that would leave no excuse for
tramps or idleness.
Every county in place OF a poor farm should have
n tract of wild land being cleared and subdued,
with a place for the unemployed to eat, sleep and
work and not be robbed.
1t is foolish and criminal to allow hundreds of
men and women in each county to go unemployed
when they might be earning a living and be Great

Argentine Overstocked

Joseph R Davis, president of a
New York city bank. who has Just re.
turned from Argentine, SAYS:
THE Argentine Is overlooked with
cattle. II may sound ridiculous, but Il
is a tragic fact. nevertheless, that cat
tie are being slaughtered merely for
the sake OF the hides. Before I left
Buenos Aires the price OF cows was
50 each IN American money. The cat.
tie men were even selling on the hoof
a cow with a calf for 50. Sheep were
selling for 81 a head. Cattle are be.
ing killed by the thousands for their
hides and to get them away from the
pastures"
How long could American producers
Of cattle n sheep keep going IL sub.
jected to unrestricted composition
with Argentine In these products?
And why should our producers be
penalized because Of Argentinian liver
production7
Tho Democratic tariff law of 1894
finally forced sheep to a price Of 81
a head. We had 45.coc. 900 sheep in
the United States when that law was
passed. and the number had de.
creased to ss.ooo.o 900 before tho Ding
ley law took effect IN 1897. BY 1908
the number had Increased to 1900.
600. The Democratic law of 1918 put
the number down to $4,000. 900. be
cause II put wool on the free list. We
counted 6 .eoo.ooo head OF cattle in
1894 and so. ooo. 900 in 1887. The mum.
Der rose to 50, ooo. 900 IN 1908. and a
large decrease was registered under
the Underwood tariff.
The emergency taritt law helped
out the situation materially and the
new tariff law passed Saturday will
give permanent aid TO cattle and
sheep raisers II the measure gets
through conference without mater
