MrNiC0'S Grievance

THE decision OF the Supreme Court OF
1 New York authorizing attachment OF
tn" funds Of the Mexican government in
possession OF the Mexican consulate In New
York City to satisfy a private claim has
put this country in bad light before the
world in respect to practices OF intcrnation-
nj law and has lowered its prestige irre,riev-
ably with Mexican public opinion. The Amer
lean State Department has been promp, in
expressing the opinion that the New York
court erred in ordering the attachment. on
tho ground that the State court exceeded
its jurisd lotion
Mexico has indicated hcr resentment ny
recalling her consul and. closing tho New
York consulate. thereby seriously ncon-
veniencing Americans DESTROYS OF trading
with Mexico. II that were ALL Il NIGH; not

on Latin-American relations Il appears
really serious. In all OF its dealings with
Mexico the United States has been IA stick

Vow, by this act. the United States instead
o. Mexico, IS placed in the position OF dis
regarding International law and OF using
strong arm methods in dealing with a sister
republic. This is just what the United
States has persisrcntly held against Mexico.

BY HENRY EDWARD WARNER


Sweetheart mine. with your laughing eyes
Blue as the tint Of the summer Skies
Opening wide in their mild surprise
Watching the sunlight stre2minS'
What thoughts grow In your littl" hr"'h'
Hurrying back to the sphere mundane.
Back the fairy manned shadow tram
That runs from the Land OF Dreaming
How much JOY where you'v" been. sweetheart
How man, smiles where the love guards
start
How many signs where the shadows part.
Lighting thu bud -blushcd bowers?
How many miles I" III" slumbcrlandF
How many shells to your chubby hanu
Glistcn and glow IN tn" silver strand
In the beautiful world OF nowcrs'
How much palm where tn" shadows creep.
There where tn. fairies their night watch
keep?
How many songs i'm tho Land Of Sleep.
With purcs, delights all tccming?
How many tears when you come aSain
How many stops the shadow Train
bringing YOU back to the sphere mundane

Thr Ninth Is Redeemed

TWENTY years ago today. when The late
l Campbell Slemp defeated Judge Will
lam r Rhea for Congress in the Ninth Dis
triCt the Democrats of Southwest Virginia
departed for what Lloyd George calls 1.-The
Wilderness" For two decades they have
wandered there. and the only sight OF their
goal was in 1910 when for few mo-
nentS before the general election. they
hoped To cross over under the leadership of
Henry G. Stuart; and were defeated by II
mere handful Of votes and by the use Of
doubtful exprdi"n,s
Now the district has been redeemed and
y i'll be represented in the next Congress by
George {. Pcery. of Tazewell. The fight
made by that candidate has inspired adj
mira,ion and has even surprised his friends.
He has been energetic. able. resourceful,
leaving no stone unturned. His campo sn
was based solely upon national issues and
in no particular did he fail to leave his po-
siton in positive and clear-cut manner in
The minds OF his hearers. He stands tour
square on me principles and the record
OF the Democratic party.
But he has not made the fight by him
rclf Every Democrat in the Ninth District
whose speeches count has given freely of
his limo and talent on the hastings. The
Senators and congressman az other districts
including those who are candidates else
mixed in the battle. Nor has the enemy
been idle. for the woods have been made
10 ring with the speeches OF Republican
orators. IL has been fight 10 the death
Residents OF those parts OF the State where
the majority party Is sure OF the election
have little conception how seriously the
people OF tn" doubtful districts take their
politics. and know little OF the hopes and
fears and the sacrifices made by the Demo-
Gratis OF the Ninth as at each election since
1920 they have rallied again and again
to the firing line
Nj Peery will make able Representa-
tive. He is well equipped. has ample knowl-
edge OF public affairs is hard worker is
loyal TO every obligation OF a citizen. Tn
like Mr.. Slemp and Mr.. Hassiurer. who now
Depart for the wilderness over the river

sary.
The eyes of the State and the nation
have been on the Ninth District. All of
Virginia congratulares the Democrats OF
the district upon their loyal and effective
work and upon their success

THERE could hardly be more signif-
l cant commentary upon the outturn Of
Yesterdays nation wide ballotinc than the
fact that far into election night most OF
the doubtful States have remained III doubt.
Upon tho basis OF returns which. nationally
viewed, leave so many important contests
in the speculative column, nothing like a
: thoroughgoing analysis OF tho days work
may be undertaken. But this much is
clear American sentiment has swung far
away from tho Republican high tide OF two
