giving the dance is required to

$4,000 FIRE IN
. ARTES|A; MAN IS
CHOkED BY Gas

Artesia, N. M, July 21.-The
barn and garage, the property of
G. M. Cole. was totally destroyed
by fire on Tuesday morning at 8
O'Clock. An automobile, buggy
large hay wagons, alfalfa hay, i'm
PIGMENTS, corn and other feeds and
articles were burned. Other nearby
barns and the residence were saved
only by hard work on the part of
the firemen and slight wind.
The fire was discovered by the
Inhabitants after it had gained n
good Roadway. A sleeping house
was close by and became inflamed
"A tool house also became ablaze,
but both these buildings were saved.
No livestock was in the barn. How
ever few chickens were killed.
The conflagration could be seen
for many miles. The heat was in
tense and the two-story dwelling,
which was about 100 feet away. was
scorched. Hundreds of persona
gathered at the scene in a short
time. The fire department hose
would not reach the burning build
ing on account OF the great distance
from the nearest fire plug, tie
home being in the outskirts of ne
town. Old discarded hose was Sc
cured, which enabled the fire de-
partment to extinguish the smould-
ering embers.
mhe damage has been estimated
at $4,000 with only $500 insurance
on the barn. The remaining loss
was not covered by insurance. The
origin of the fire is unknown, as-
pecially as no smokers had been
about the barn.
Fred Cole was overcome by
smoke and collapsed as a result of
cooling too rapidly. A physician
was summoned. who administered
medical aid.

the controversy. For four million men to tleir
voting strength to wiring something from the pub
lie to which they not entitled would be dis
graceful reflection upon the patriotic order with
which they fought. on the other hand, to adopt
tactics which would make doing the just thing by
these men unpopular with the people is equally to
be deplored,
Either adjusted compensation Is right or 1t is
not right That question should be decided on its
merits There is deep principles involved. The
Journal believes that amount should be paid
the ex-service men which will place them on an
equal economic footing with those who stayed at
home in lucrative employments. We should not
ask these men to penalze themselves economically
for their patriotism To adjust this dfferential is
one of the fair costs of the war and should be met
as such.
In meeting It no political clubbing" should be
endured Big business which is opposed to bonus,
should not be permitted to defeat it in order to
serve it's ends. The ex-service men should not be
permitted to coerce congress with the threat of
its immense number of votes. Justice should
measure what is done
We believe in adjusted compensation for the ex-
service men. How much and how is scientific In
stead of political question. There is way to
arrive at the average economic loss Of the service
men by reason Of that service.
The Journal pointed out this fact many months
ago and insisted expert and impartial COM
mission to investigate and determine this whole
question in a scientific way. Big business should
not be allowed to place the compensation too low,
nor the ex-service be permitted to place it
too high
Congress has bungled the Job until it is becom-
ing political issue. AS such it is dangerous, what
ever course is pursued. 1t would seem that poti-
clans in their efforts at political "cuteness will
never learn that the just and righteous thing is the
safest political course in the end.

A BLUNDER.

President Harding has shown well defined
sixth sense in his public addresses. His intuition
of the fitness of things has been very marked. He
has made few bunders.
In view of this record It is strange that 1t did
not Jar upon his finer sensbilites when he con-
templated devoting his Lincoln day address to Lin
coin the partisan instead of to Lincoln the man. or
Lincoln the American.
The day has long gone by when Lincoln is re-
garded in a partisan light. All carpng has died
away and Lincoln stands against the horizon as
man and patriot
To attempt to utilize the affection in which this
great man is held by the people in order to slim
ulate partisan ardor is in bad taste Besides, point.
ing to Lincoln as a partisan is unfair statement
Of the facts
AS Lincoln came into national prominence there
was a new issue and emphasis upon old is
sues re-agnment occurred. Lincoln aided in
breaking up old party lines and establishing new
ones TO meet the live problems of the hour.
1t is true that Lincoln yielded. in small matters,
to the exigencies Of party need. 1t was necessary
to keep an organization beams himself in order to
accomplish what he had in mind TO do for the
union, but all this was secondary. Lincoln, in no
sense stands out in history partisan. 1t was
in bad taste for the president to emphasize minor
quality when the major Of Americanism is the
trait which lives.
Harding was elected by an immense majority.
owing to revulsion from feeling. Naturally, as
an election approaches, he desires to hold in line
all those who supported him in 800. But at
tempt to use Lincoln a partisan in order to ac-
complish this purpose will be reactonary in its eff
feet and will do exactly the reverse thing
Lincoln looms too big belonging to all the
people for any party to claim him as its own in
any narrow sense We feel that the president
blundered.

EDITORIAL OF THE DAY
U. S. TREASURY FINANCE.
tFrom the New York Times


Secretary Melons announcement of progress
with the refundng of the governments nearer
maturities is natural result of the over-subscrip
ton of treasury and of the favorable
conditions of the Federal Bank reserve. 1t would
be unreasonable to expect better opportunity for
the treasury than a time when the demands of
business for credit low, and gold are
so ample that the Federal Reserve Board speaks
of them as "a source of danger" 1t is a service
to sound finance to have the treasury absorb some
of the excess credit supply. The country eagerly
looks forward TO such a revival of trade that
funds would find better employment in trade than
for the treasury when wage payments are more
liberal and the country is on a basis of profits
rather than mortgage interest. The times will
soon be more favorable for business revival than
cant signs of this during the current week. not
the least significant being the appearance of rail-
way buying in the iron and equipment markets,
due to the larger demand for for freight
movement. The quicker the treasury gets its
funds the better, since it would have to pay more
il in direct competition with trade demands.
The retirement or $4,000 600 Victory notes
will leave S6,500,000,000 of short-dated debt out
standing, and that no doubt will be nibbed at be-
fore the final operation of war finance is at
tempted. 1t will be a welcome day when the
treasury ceases to disturb the money market with
its alternate gatherings in and payings out No
country has financed itself so well as the United
States yet have fallen into the error of ex-
cessive tax exemption. 1t fiscal rather
than banking error. The is continued in
the rcfunding. The treasury has lost in taxes
more than it has saved in interest The general
interest rate is much falsified by tax exemp-
lions as the credit basis is by the excess gold re-
serves 1t is not possible yet to urge the treasury
to set the example Of borrowing money strict
money market terms. 1t may be said generally
that II will be good news for all when tax laws do
not penalize industry and trade, and when the
credit market and the money market are more
nearly what they seem.
