American Jockeys Abroad.

Two American jockeys, ARCHIBALD
and O'NEM, rode the winner and the
second horse in the Two Thousand
Guineas Stake, the first of the great
English classics for three-year-olds,
this year. The fact that Americans
had these mounts is the result of
neither chance nor accident.
O'NEIL has long been resident OF
France, but he was finished horse
man before he went abroad, first to
wear the silks OF the late w. X.
VANDERBILT and more recently those
of A. X. MAcoMBER OF California,
who bought the Vanderbilt racing es-
tablishmeHt-breeding farm, training
grounds and all-for something like
$3,000,000. O'NEH, who is a son-in-
law OF FRED BURLEw, the trainer of
Norwich, is perhaps the most eagerly
sought after jockey OF the present
day on the Continent, and for him to
go to England to take part in great
race is not unusual. He crossed the
English Channel to pilot Spion Kop
to victory in the Derby of 1920.
ARCHIBALD was not considered the
equal of ONEIL, SLOAN, MAHEB and
some Of the other American riders
who were his contemporaries, and
as he went to Germany instead of to
France or England, like the others,
the public did not hear so much
about him. He had steady employ
ment in Germany and won all Of the
great races there. Because he took
part in the sport during the war
racing was not stopped by the Ger
mans, who declared it was necessary
to their horse breeding experiments
ARCHIBALD had difficulty in obtaining
an English license. Having gained
permission to follow his calling in
England he is now doing well.
Another American jockey who is
creating something of sensation on
the Continent is the colored man
WINFIELD, who spent fifteen years
in Russia and was considered the
best horseman that country had.
WINFIELD is well past 40, but is
riding with great success in France,
where colored jockeys are rare.
When WINFIELD was at his best
in the United States there were
plenty of capable horsemen OF his
own color, including SIMMs, PERKINS
and ALoYzo CLAYTON; but il he re-
turned here he would find the field
entirely occupied by white riders.
WINFIELD has saved his money, he
speaks several languages, and on the
whole he is Of type that is unusual.
Still another jockey among the ex-
perts in the saddle who were devel-
oped here in the period between 1900
and 1910 is LUcIEy LYME, who has
been for some years. in the employ
of the King of Spain.

Smoot's Bad Bonus Plan.

Senator SMooT need not fatter him
self that his bonus bill will be any
more acceptable to the self-respect-
ing American public than Senator
McCUMBER's bonus bill or Represen-
tative FoRpNEY's bonus bill. 1t is as
wrong in principle and would be as
vicious in its outworkings and it's
consequences as any OF the other
odious measures.
Whether the bonus loot Is called
an adjusted compensation plan, as
FoRDNEY calls his, or modified COM
pensation plan, as McCUMBER calls
his, or paid up insurance plan, as
SMooT calls his, the load will land
on the back of the American people
just the same, and always the cost
figures out at about the same five
billions of dollars-five thousand
million dollars.
Fordney bonus, McCumber bonus
or Smoot bonus, the unethical as
pect OF it is equally offensive to
Americans who are jealous for the
honor of the country and the recti-
tude of its officials. 1t is equally i'm
moral when its sole purpose is to buy
elections for the Congressman who
pass the bonus and make the national
Treasury pay the bills.
Senator SMooT, generally sound,
responsible man that he is, ought to
hang his head at putting himself in
rivalry with the Fordneys and the
McCumbers in shameless bonus vote
bidding for personal political ad-
vantage.

Barrie on Youth and Age.

Sir JAMES M. BARRIE is less thani
62 years old, but he talked to the
students OF st. Andrews University,
where he was installed as rector the
other day, as II youth and he were
far apart. Youth was his keynote.
He advised the students to take what
belonged to them In the matter of
running the world. He seemed to
think that the old men, IL they had
wished to. could have prevented the
great war.
age" said Sir JAMES, "is not
necessarily another name for sapi-
ence." True words; ARISTOTLE had
finished his great works before he
was as old as BARRIE Is now; at 43
NEWTON had completed the elabora-
tion OF the law of gravitation. There
is no definite relation between age
and wisdom; 1t can only be laid down
as broad principle that man of SO
knows three times as many things
that he shouldn't do as he knew
when he was 25.
So far as preventing wars is con-
cerned, does Sir JAMES know Of any
instance where youth proved more
conservative in council than age? 1t
is true that in the great war old men
were in the majority as ministers and
generals. PITT became Prime Minis
ter at "a; LLOYD GEORGE at So.
NAPOLEON was only 80 when he won
the battle of the Pyramids; JoFFRE
was 62 at the Marne. GRANT was
43 at Appomattox; FocH was 67 at
the Armistice. These comparisons
mean nothing except that time has
added to the complexities of politics
and war. In these sciences there
are no more beardless geniuses.
Youth has every chance it wishes
to take. In literature, for instance,
the young writer's find young review
ers and young readers; and the aged
publishers fork over the royalties.
But neither youth nor age makes
greatness in letters. BYRON was fa-
nous at 20, scandalous at 80 and
dead at So; THOMAS HARDY, at S4,
Is a very live poet even il he is sar-
donic. BARRIE himself was made
man at 2S; so was CONAN DOYLE,
who at that age published "A Study
| in Scarlet" No reader young or
DID, questioned the works of these
youths because of the immaturity of
their authors. @.--t
If it were true that the elders made
war, as Sir JAMES suggests, then OBJ
viously the men to prevent war in
future must be the young ones. Eng
land should have sent youthful en-
thusiast to the Washington confer
ence. Some think she did that very
thing. Mr. BALroUR may have been old
in the '70s, when he was cumming
with DIsRAELI and SALISBURY, but
he seems very young at SO, when he
plays tennis and matches Mr.. HUGHES
at the game of scapping navies.
Everybody who lives to be 80 or
so is old at one stage of the way and
young at another, but it is hard to
tell whether youth or age will ar
rive first. METHUsELAH probably put
his affairs In order when he was
about los.

FRIDAY. MAY 5. 1922.
Feeding on Phantoms.

Our neighbor the World speaks
definitely and positively of the Bev-
eridge nomination for the Senate in
Indiana. 1t says: Senator News
defeat for denomination in the Indi-
ana primaries is President HARDING's
defeat. The Republican voters of In
diana have repudiated the Harding
administration"
The World makes this statement
as fact. 1t is not an assumption
or a deduction. 1t is SO and that's
all there is of it. But this Is way
the World has of expressing itself
on political matters.
The Worlds statement that News
defeat is President HARDING's defeat,
that News defeat is the reputation
OF the Harding Administration, is
based on the well known intimate
friendship between Senator New and
President HARDING. This in the eyes
of the World is sufficient evidence to
justify the positive statement that
News failure to be renominated for
the Senate means reputation of the
Harding Administrator.
The fact is that the President took
no part in the contest between New
and BEvERIDGE. He very wisely kept
out of this fight and, too, kept his
Administration out of the fight. IT,
however, the President, with all the
strength .and power Of his Admins
tration, had got behind NEW in an at
tempt to force his denomination it.
wouldn't have made any considerable
difference in the result, for BEyERIDeE
had the nomination cold long before
the primary came off.
BEvEIIDGE got his nomination as
men get things in this world when
they want them enough to go after
them, want them enough to do the
work. want them enough to pay the
price in sacrifice of time, and energy,
and effort. BEvERIDGE paid the price
OF the nomination. 1t cost him two
years of work, very clever, adroit,
compelling work.
Until a few months ago BEvERTDGE
did not appear as a candidate for
the Senate. In his speeches all over
Indiana, in big towns. small towns,
county seats, crossroads and grass
root sections, he was always the
scholar. the historian, the statesman,
the lecturer, the philosopher, the
!. orator, big citizen Of Indiana, big
citizen of the nation. He was never
candidate for office, but all the while
he was making acquaintances, friend
ships, rebuilding a figure in Indiana
that meant his nomination, meant
nothing else.
II the World knew OF the clever
Beveridge campaign, and il should
have known. its statement thakNEw's
defeat is HARDINGs defeat, that NEw's
defeat is reputation of the Har-
ding Administration, is both mislead-
Ing and dishonest. But the World is
so stepped in the belief that IL is the
word and the breath and the soul of
the Democratic party that in its poll
tics 1t is blind to anything which does
not make for Democratic victory
Democratic glory. And this is
pity, for the World is a strong news.

SETS USED IN
LITTLE LORD FAUNTLEROY"
Most Expensive Production Ever
Made by Mary Pickford.

Most Expensive Production Ever
Made by Mary Pickford.
Mary Pickford has probably never
done a photoplay in which so little
location work was required as in her
current United Artists offering, "Lit-
tie Lord Fauntleroy," to be featured
at the Opera House Monday and Tues
day., June 26th and 27th.
With the exception Of a trip to
Burlingame, CAL, where the castles
exteriors were taken, the entire pic
ture was made in Los Angeles at the
headquarters for the Pickford force.
This has not meant, however, that
Little Lord Fauntleroy'' is an econ
omical picture. On the contrary, it
is by far the most expensive cinema
undertaking Little May has ever at
tempted. The cost of the sets alone
runs into figures that sound like
statement of Americas war debt. In
addition to the largest interior set
ever built, there were several exte-
riors that were gigantic in size and
stupendous in cost
Among the settings that are bound
to provoke much favorable comment
are the interiors of Dorincourt Castle
the New York street scenes, the Dor
incourt Lodge and the peasant home
Of Mrs. Higgins.
Those who have learned to love the
little Lord Fauntleroy the author pic
tured, as well the atmosphere in
which he lived, will view Miss Pick
ford's cinematization of this wonder
full novel with a genuine delight. The
faithfulness and fidelity with which
she has reproduced the romantic To-
Gale in which the story is stepped is
truly a credit to the genius of the one
