THE RANKS OF THE con-
FEDERACY.

We northerners speak Of tbs thin
ming ranks Of the Union men who
served in the strife Of the Civil war
and we hold in deep reverence the few
remaining men who wore the blue
The recent Memorial day accentuated
to lis the defamation Of those ranks
and we consider with regret even now
the time when the last warrior of that
tremendous struggle shall have passed
on. They were men Of our blood, Of
our sympathies and Of our loyalty to
the government. Therefore, they com
mand the deep consideration Of the
people Of the north the north that
once was.
But while we northerners are paying
tribute to the men who helped to pre-
serve the union, there is another host
of people Americans now TO the core
who are as deeply attached to the
men who fought in that same war but
on the side opposed to the govern
ment that existed in Washington from
'6l to 65. They are essentially the
people of the south-of the south that
was in those days. They sent 100000
of the best blood of the south into the
great struggle in defense of something
which they believed was their right.
Those 100000 fought valiantly, as
Americans are accustomed TO fight.
They bled and died for that cause
which they held as their right and for
their homes and their families, as they
viewed the situation in those terri
BILE days. They were defeated as they
ought to have been defeated. And at
what cost to bothi Now they, too,
are a swiftly vanishing army.

Americans who have been generously
contributing their millions for the re-
lief Of suffering Russians win be
pleased to know that the peak" Of
the famine there has been reached
and that from now on there promises
TO be a lessening Of the suffering. The
consciousness of having done some
thing to relieve suffering even among
SO far away people as the multitudes
Of Russians must come home to many
Americans with satisfaction.

Pres. Harding's summer thus far has
not been one round Of pleasure by any
means. The job Of being chief execu-
tive Of the United States when there
are such big strikes as those connect
ed with coal mines and railroads is not
to be considered an easy proposition
inasmuch as the president is looked
to for action Of some kind when strikes
come to al impasse, Or to a seeming
impasse.

Confederate capital, Richmond, and
there they received the acclaim Of
southern people who recall the heroic
deeds of that army which they repre-
sent 1t is easy to see why. They
were of southern blood, of southern
sympathies and Of loyalty TO the Con-
federate government; and although
that division is scarcely more than a
memory there must inevitably remain
in the minds Of southerners OF the
present day a feeling of affection for
the grizzled old veterans who wore
the gray, even in cause which by
most people is considered now to have
been wrong in principle. And even
northerners tip their hats in recogni-
tion of the valor of these men who
wore the gray, as they join with their
southern brothers in rejoicing that the
government of the United States is
their common heritage.

EDITORIAL OF THE DAY
WHERE THE LEAGUE is LEFT.
(From the New York Times.l

1t is secret that the members of the League
OF Nations looked forward with certain apprehen-
sion to the Washington conference. Would it help

have reported that the shadow of coming events in
Washington lay upon it somewhat disturbingly. And
while several officials and champions of the league
such as Mr.. Balfour and M. Vviani, came to Wash
ington delegates there was feeling their
part that the situation was of obvious delicacy.
Would the conference called by the president of the
United States openly and formally cut loose from

velop at Washington q new association of nations

To all these questions the proceedings of the
conference have given plain answer. IL the league
is affected in any way by what was done at Wash
appearance of antagonism to it manifested. IL
any of the American delegates had scheme to dis
place or suppant the league by a competing inter-
national body, 1t carefully suppressed. And the
moral effect Of the agreements and treaties arrived
at by the Washington conference Is undeniably
in line with the great aims of the league that the
general impression of the world cannot fail to be
that they are brought nearer attainment. Further
more, Of the arguments used, and to be used,
by the administration in support of the treaty for
limitation of naval forces and for what is virtual
alliance with England, France and Japan in regard
to Pacific questions, arguments douby valid for
the Covenant of the League of Nations. The chief
objections of 1920 have thus become the leading
recommendations of 1922. And the fear that the
Washington conference might be so shaped to
destroy the League of Nations may be dis
missed along with the absurd report that Mr.. Lloyd
George has set out to "kP 1t by calling a confer

"MORAL" SUPPORT,

The gang in New Mexico. with its morale shat
tered and its teeth chattering, is an outstanding
example Of impotency and inefficiency.
UJp at Santa Fe its members stand around in groups
to lend each other moral support. They assure
each other. with attempt at bravado, that what
they see in the political graveyard which they are
shiverngly attempting to pass, is stump instead
of man. At a sound they jump and then hasten
to assure each other that it only an owl. They
tell each other that the DOGGY man. is about eX-
hausted and cannot pursue them much farther All
insist that they do not believe in ghosts-meanwhe
casting apprehensive glances over their shoulders
The onlooker hardly knows whether to call the
situation unfortunate, pathetic or humorous
Meanwhile, the public mind is made up. The
graves already dug in the political graveyard.
What they see is not stump; it is the graye-dig-
ger. The sound which startled them is not the cry
OF an owl 1t is the enraged cry Of the voters The
DOGGY man" is not exhausted He Is very militant.
And they do believe in ghosts-every mothers son of
them.
The ghosts they see are the shadows of their
better selyes-the phantoms of murdered con-
science.

no morals? at can't be did"

but not on yours, my dear!"
Mine is quite small" said Baby
Bunty. "But-wait a minute-here
comes Squeakie Squealer, the little
pig boy with his sled. His is about
the size of mine, but you can ride
half On mine and half on his, and
wen take you home that way"
And surely enough, by sitting on
the two sleds-half of himself on
each-Uncle Wiggi;y was pulled
home, for he couldn't hop. And the
only thing that happened was, right
in front of his bungalow, Baby
Bunty pulled her sled one way, and
Squeakie Squealer pulled his the
opposite way, and Uncle Wiggily
fell off between them into the
snow. Nurse Jane hurried out,
picked him up and took him in
where he was warm, SO his rheuma-
tism was soon better.
But Baby Bunty and Squeakie
Squealer were great helps, just the

FOR swIFTER JUSTICE.

1t is matter OF frequent comment among the
public that there should be such extraordinary
delay between the arrest Of those charged with
crime and their trial and conviction.
The effect Of prolonged delay in bringing Of
tenders to trial is to weaken the influence OF
plary punishment. The crime is remembered but
the vIndlcaton OF the law is eclipsed by the interval
before conviction. Nothing Is calculated to deter
the criminally inclined to protect community
from reign of terror by thugs and bandits as the
demonstrated certainty that the police and officers
are vigilant and that the arrest is followed nevta-
bly, by swift and certain trial and the rigors Of the
law
New Jersey justice has become famous through
out the nation for the celebrity of It's disposition of
criminal cases. II this standard were prevalent
throughout the country should hear less of
crime waves and more of respect for the law.

SOLDIERS STRUGGLE
WITH EAGLE Is FATAL

Santiago, Chile, Feb. 13 (by the
Associated, Press. "A story Of a
soldiers fatal struggle with a huge
eagle in a mountain pass near Los
Andes last Saturday Is told by the
newspapers here. The soldier shot
the eagle and. thinking he had
killed it, approached, but the bird
had only suffered broken wing
and furiously attacked him.
In the struggle which followed
the eagles claws clutched the trig-
ger of the soldiers gun, which was
discharged, the bullet entering the
mans body. He died in the arms
Of his companions, who took his
body and also the wounded eagle to
Los Andes.
