FARMER is TARRED.
Refuses To Divuige Names, Saying Il
Is a Personal Matter,

Beaumont, Texas.-D. l.. Matthews,
so years old, living in Hardin county,
was beaten and then tarred and feath-
cred by a group of men who met him
on the road as he was returning to his
home. Matthews then was taken to
Kountze, the county seat. where he
was chained to a telephone pole on a
downtown corner. Padlocks fastened
the chains and it was with difficulty
that he was finally released.
Matthews said he recognized four
members of the party, one being an
officer, but he refused to divulge their
names, declaring that it was now a per-
sonal mateer, and not one for the law
to handle.

French Would Make League

Special cable TO THE New YORK HERALD.
Copyright, I9eg. by THE New YORK. HERALD.

Paris, Feb. 25.
While no date has yet been fixed for
the presentation to the French Parlia-
ment OF the treaties proposed by the
Washington arms conference. they are
being studied closely and It is not GER
tain that they will be ratified withou.
reservations.
1t is quite likely that the campaign
which obviously is now being inspired
by the Government in favor of the
League Of Nations will have a bearing
on the treaty discussion. since one OF the
objects Of this campaign Is TO get recog-
milton for the league as the treaty en-
forcing body.
Not only is the suggestion being made
that the league take over the German
disarmament problem as we'll as any
new stipuations which may be made by
the Genoa conference. but there has re-
appeared the old idea of having the
league issue some kind OF international
currency based on German reparations
bonds Of which il would be made custo-
dian.
This campaign lends significance to
a long and critical discussion I'm the
Temps OF the Washington treaties. the
principal defect of which 1t holds, is
the failure TO name any permanent in
ternational body TO guarantee their
execution.

ing the Lea que OF Nations" SAYS this

THIRD GOVERNMENT
DEFEAT IN BRITAIN
Independent Liberal Carries
By-Election by 5000, Re-
versing Former Verdict.
0MIN0t'S FOR COALITION
All Parties Pursuing Campaign
With Energy-Election
Date Is Not Yet Set.

LONDON. Feb. 25 (Associated Press) 49,
The reNerses for the Government in
three bye-elections recently held for the
Clayton division of Manchester. on Feb
ruary 49, the North division of Gambler
well, on February 20. and the Bodmin
division OF Cornwall to-day. are regarded
as ominous for the cause sof coalition
whenever the general elections may
come. Nothing is known of how soon
this will be. but all parties are pursuing
the election campaign with the greatest
energy.
There will be campaign OF speeches
throughout the country by the principal
Ministers. including the Prime Minister,
in the coming two months. Mr.. LLOYD
George will make a big speech at Man
chester and possibly speeches in other
cities. and ii is considered that he would
hardly be likely to do this amid the diff
ficulties presented by the Irish question,
the Genoa economic conference and other
matters unless an appeal to the country
was believed TO be near
The revolt of the extreme Tory wing
against the leadership of Mr.. Lloyd
George and the continuance of the
coalition has grown with great rapidlty
since the Irish treaty was concluded.
and unless the Premier is Bile to stem
the revolt it promises to have very
serious effects on the coalition.
The victories by two Labor candidates
and one Liberal in the recent bye cleo
tions were due largely TO the tacit un-
derstanding between the Labor and
independent Liberal parties to avoid
triangular contests. Heretofore the
Labor party had resolutely refused any
compact with the Liberal party. al
though the policies OF the two parties
on many questions are almost identical
hence most of the electoral contests
found Labor candidates opposing Lib
eral candidates. the consequence being
that coalition candidate usually Sc
cured the seat on a minority vote
This system was avoided in the three
foregoing contests. which were straight
fights between Bebor and Coalition or
between Liberal and Coalition
If the success thus gained by the
anti-Government parties should induce
the Labor and Liberal parties to agree
upon definite ALLEGATION OF seats be-
tween their respective candidates. In
stead of opposing each other. 1t is rec
ognized that a serious situation would
arise for the Government whenever an
appeal TO the country was made. The
strength displayed by the Labor and
Liberal parties in these bye elections
is attributed generally to unemployment
and bad trade conditions. 1t is thought
also that the proposed attack on edu--
cation made by the recommendations of
the Geddes committee. involving big
cuts in education grants, had con-
siderable effect.
1t is interesting to note that Isaac Foot.
who defeated Sir Frederick Poole for
the Bodmin seat by 1851 votes against
1850. was the Labor opponent of Lady
Astor in the Plymouth election os 1919.
He has thus turned a majority OF 3,000
at the general election into Liberal
majority OF about the same proportions.
