SANDER
BY HAZEL DEYO BACHELOR

What has gone before-Miriam FOlwel,
young business woman, spends the night
at a strange inn fater a country walk
with Warren Holmes, a man she knows
only slightly. He asks her to marry him,
but she refuses. The following morning,
when they return to the Pine Notch Ho-
tel, scandal is brewing, and, after several
unpleasant encounters with people who
believe the worst of her, Miriam returns
to New York. Miriam has almost forgoot-
ten the experience when, a year later, she
meets Anthony Breen.-Now so on with
the story.

legislative folly. Certainly if public opinion
had been called into counsel, the executive
tariff order would not have been taken. For
in the Northwest, as we'll as in the coun try at

how futile it is to try the high-tariff cure

Of vast quantities of Canadian wheat. Actual
ly, it does no such thing. Canadian wheat
is not coming to this country now over the
thirty-cent tariff wall, with the exception of

News adds, "But in the marketsof the world
American wheat will continue to come into
competition with the wheat of Canada, pro-
duced at lower costs, and the wheat of other
countries International prices will con-
tinue to be fixed as usual. The market for
American wheat will not be enlarged by the
higher duty--it may even be further re-
stricted-and its price will not be ad-
vanced.'
Here, then, lies the gravest i'll, not alone
in the excessive increase of the wheat duty,
but as well in the entire conception OF the

On Curing One III By Another

A POLITICAL play to the galleries never
n met with broader rebuke than the ad-
minstrations act of increasing the
import duty on wheat. Under the flexible
provisions of the Fordney-McCumber law
the President is authorized to raise or lower
conditions so warrant. Exercising this dis
erection and proceeding, we take it, upon
the advice of supposed experts in that PROV
ince of Republican politics, Mr.. Coolidge has
added twelve cents to the already excessive
duty on wheat, so that it now stands forty
two cents a bushel.
The purpose was to please the people of
a region in which latter-day Republican pol
icy has fallen into disfavor The alleged
purpose, of course was to aid them though
it is hard to imagine many professors of
that delusion as taking themselves serious
ly. The rank and file of Western newspa-
pers do not so take it. The st. Paul (Min-
nesota) Pioneer Press speaks the mind of
many of it's neighbors when, after calling
the original Observation-Disclosures tariff on
wheat "a monstrous hoax it says: 1.-THE
same craftsmanship which perpetrated that,
perceiyihg how the farmer is becoming aware
that the exchange made on his behalf was
disadYantageous has thought to pacfy him
by increasing the magnitude of the hoax
in like vein the Detroit News AYERS, at is a
government gesture, supposed to denote good
will. The wheat farmer is supposed to ac-
cept it as a sort of Coue treatment, and be-
gin saying to himself, The tariff increase is
making me better and BETTER but facts and
figures are likely to make him little I'M

Far from having thriven under the thirty
cent duty on their product, the wheat grow
ers of the West have gone from smoke to
smother. Their circumstances during the
last year, as compared with those prevailing
under the Democratic tariff when wheat was
duty-free, is the progress of Pharaoh's
dream in which the fat kline were devoured
by the lean. That all the troubles of the
agricultural west are 10 De lalu at the door

was defeated in the Fifth district for con-
gress. He never recovered from that blow.
| heard him talking about his last campaign
in congress during the summer before the
fall election. He was perfectly confident and
said he had never been defeated in his life
and was sure to win.
My opinion on this bloc movement, the
seven Republicans and the five southern
senators, may be worth very little, but, un-
less these members of the bloc can raise a
hurrah in the Dixie commonwealth on this
bloc business, it is likely to prove uncom-
Portable if not embarrassing to the most Of
them. However, as the negro has had his
exodus, we will not be obliged to have the
race issue in this campaign of 1924.
Anyhow, we shall see what We will see.
FRANCE AND IT'S NEGRO POPULATION
IN HE negroes in France find nearly all
positions open to them. There four
negro members in the chamber of dep
uties a body like congress.
''MiXed marriages are allowed" says a
learned writer. During the war, however,
the white women of France were warned
against such marriages, saying their black
sWeethearts were not sufficiently civilized to
make good husbands. No legal opposition
to marriage of a black citizen to white
woman is allowed" General Henry Allen,
of the A. E. +. in France, says: 1.-The negro
question is not considered in France and
Germany as it is in the United States-we
want TO keep the Wnlle race pure
In October, 1915, France called for negro
volunteers in her African colonies. Fifty
thousand volunteered. One hundred and
siXty-three thousand volunteered up to 1918.
The black troops on the Rhine were greatly
complained against by the German people
in 1922. General Allen, the American gen
eral under Pershng, says: Much Of the
opposition to black troops on the Rhine was
only German propaganda" All black troops
were withdrawn from the Rhine in 1922,
the first time the French people discriminate
ed against its black troops anywhere.
Some of recollect that American sol
ders were then sent to the Rhine long after
the armistice to protect the complaining
Germans.
The German women were pleased to mar
ry these white soldiers, and when they were
recalled they brought the German wives
and babies back here to live. SO the world
moves. And the colored people should visit
France often.

POLL PLAYERS WORK HARD
 IN DUNNING'S NEW PLAY
Hartford Aggregation Of Performers With Edmund Elton As Guest Star
 Make Play Interesting
(Bv Herald ReNipwer1.

tBy Herald Reyiewer). The Poli Players at the Palace the-
 ater in Hartford, with Edmund Elton
 as a guest star. work mighty hard to
 make Faint Heart" comedy by Philip and Frances Cunning, touch upon the borderline of success. It is supposedly a new play of mystery which is to be taken into New York, but much cutting and probably re- writing of the piece will be necessary before this is done. The comedy sav- ors bit too much of the old school of burlesque, especially in the second act aboard ship when a great deal of hokum is brought into play.
 The story in brief has to do with a U. s. secret service agent portrayed by Edmund Elton, who for a long time is on the trail of Captain Lew elyn GA. H. Van Buren) and Acceeds
 in capturing him by attending mas qued ball and later by posing as a sailor aboard the boat upon which from the scene of the masquerade.
 Elton was cordially greeted at last evenings performance by theatergo- CTS who remember him from the days of stock at the old Poi theater. AL though the play was written for him his part. is an abbreviated one but while he is on the stage he does some l very good character acting. Miss Winifred St. Claire, as Virginia, the ! kidnapped girl, again adds laurels to | her past achievements and Arthur | Howard, as Willie, the deserted lover, | gives another good interpretation of his role.
 It seemed like old times to see Van Buren again in leading role and his work was appreciated. Miss Frances Williams, as the hysterical aunt of Virginia, evoked many laughs and the youthful personality of Joseph Wag- staff, as Arthur Morgan, was refresh ing and an asset to the production.
 Next week the company will play "The Crooked Square" by Sam Ship man.
