An Ill-Advised Wet Move.

Representative Tinkham Of Massa-
chusetts was not well advised in the
resolution he offered in the House yes
terday calling upon Representative
Volstead to resign from the chairman
ship Of the judiciary committee of
that body. The resolution was based
on a charge that in the campaign of
two years ago MFR. Volstead received
assistance from the Anti-Saloon
League.
Mr. Tinkham, a wet, ought to have
known that the wet cause in this
years campaign carries-for publica-
tion-an anti-saloon slogan. No wet Of
influence is openly championing the
saloon. All are felicitating the coun-
try that the saloon is gone for good,
and assuring the country that it can
not return; that the sale Of light wines
and beer can safely be empowered 50
far as the saloon is concerned; that
the demoralizing influences of the
saloon and John Barleycorn will never
be known in this country again.
Mr.. Tinkham is not playing the
game. Why should Mr.. Volstead be
punished If, as charged, ha received
assistance two years ago from an or
ganization engaged In work which has
for its object making certain what the
vets now assert has been accom-
plished? The anti-saloon work is in
line with tho wet profession. The vets,
according to their public deliverances,
are anti-saloonists themselves.
The House took the right action on
Mr.. Tinkham's proposition. 1t first
laid It on the table by whooping yea
vote, and then expunged 1t from the
record by a vote practically unani-
mous-141 to 3.

son the passing of Arthur Grifith.
though regarded as a heavy loss, was
OF slight moment. Collins had been an
intrepid soldier of the Sinn Fein and
had won large personal following by
his magnetic. fearless personality,
while Griffith had been quieter in his
methods. less appealing to the public
imagination.
1t Is significant that from the mo-
msnt Collins death was known a de-
mand arose throughout Ireland that
the government at Dublin pursue the
campaign Of pacification without re-
mission, and that it offer no terms to
the insurgents. Measures of severity
against them were urged, and the
sentiment has spread rapidly through
the island. Apparently a great blunder
was committed when Collins was
marked down for slaughter.
The Free State government has re-
organized, and placed the command
of the army in the hands Of Richard
Mulcahy, while William Cosgrave sue
ceeds Griffith as civil leader. Both
men are favorable to Collins policy of
conciliation, coupled with necessary
measures to restore peace. There is NO
sign Of weakening in the Free State
administration, and with a strength
ened public support, due to the killing
of Collins, 1t would seem that the day
of pacification is at hand. For which
all true friends Of Ireland will be
hopeful.
