It may be true that the Indulgence

It may be that the help which

because they are permitted to set up
a free government.
The Tennessee legislature met In
"extraordinary session" yesterday to
consider ratification of the federal
woman suffrage amendment. It will
fee extraordinary Indeed If those
legislators do anything. The obvious
effect gives them pause. Curses and
praises mingle If they make any de-
rision. universal contempt If they do
hot. They are only expected to speak
for themselves and Tennessee, but
they know who's listening. They have
stage fright. They would like to es-

TRG ACCEPTANCE SPEECH OP
GOVERNOR COX.
W s
ficlently protected by the clause Gov-
ernor Cox proposes. The first inter-
pretation, calling for the adherence to
the fundamental purposes of the
league by all member states, would
keep this country from becoming em-
broiled in racial quarrels. It would
create a privilege for the congress to
decline to authorize the use of the
armed forces of the United States In
the event the congress did not think
the fundamental purposes , of the
league had been properly respected.
It Is to be regretted, of course, that
the league has to be "the supreme
issue" In the coming campaign, but
the republicans—through their failure
to ratify the covenant—chose to make
It such and they have found In Gov-
ernor Cox a man courageous enough
to accept the gage of battle. In his
speech of acceptance he told the
world that he was going to wage the
fight, and the speech itself indicates
that he is fully capable of waging it.

republican party is on In the votes for pPned ,f thft country had fo,Iowed
Women campaign. snch and such a policy In preference
to the one It did follow on any ques-
tion of Importance, and for that rea-
son the recent remark attributed to
Colonel House to the effect that this
country should have negotiated a
temporary peace with Germany as
j soon as the fighting was over, fell
completely flat.
Likewise, it Is dangerous to say
now—at least It Is not right to say
it—that there would have been no
bolshevik-Polish crisis if this country
had entered Into the League of Na-
tions along with France and Great
Britain and had engaged earnestly
with them In the business of establish-
ing peace.
Nobody, however—not even the
staunchest opponents of the League
of Nations—seems inclined to cite the
Polish crisis as a reason why we
should remain out of the league.
It would be hard for them to find
a more convenient and, it must be
admitted, more convincing argument
for their position. But there must be
an explanation for their silence.
There must be a very good reason
why they are not pointing a warning
finger at the Polish situation and say-
ing to an American and voting public,
"Stay out."
There is but one obvious reason
why the league opponents should re-
main silent and that is that they
realize that conditions might have
been different If the United States
had become a member of the league
along with the allied countries. They
must appreciate the fact that with all
the great powers in the league that
organization could have given some
weight to a warning to the rival fac-
tions to adjust their grievances and
make peace. Certainly the league
could have held Poland to the terms
specified in the peace treaty, and back
of the whole bolshevik-Polish quarrel
there lies the militant desire of the
Poles for more territory.
We "do not say that there would
have been no menacing crisis In east-
ern Europe at present if the United
States had entered the league, but we
cannot refrain from observing that
none of the staunch enemies of the
organization have been courageous
enough to cite the Polish situation,
with all its menacing possibilities, as
a persuasive reason why we should be
thankful that we are out of the league
and should stay out.
the weather, but nobody ever does
anything about It, and until we are
able to get reliable and definite as-
surances as to whether it Is going to
rain or not between the time we leave
on a picnic party and the time we set
back home, paper suite will not be-
come very popular In this section. It
would take some salesman to con-
vince the ordinary purchaser that a
paper suit would last any longer in a
brisk Texas thunder ehower than a
picked wren at a hawk supper.
Furthermore, the qusftlty of paper
to be obtained in the open market
these days Is nothing like what it was
before the war—which opens up an
avenue, in the event paper suits are
Introduced, for many such tragedies
as that recorded In the once popular
song about a bar, the first cigar, and
a pair of perfectly good trousers that
were rendered useless for anything
except every day wear.
Btlll, we would wager that If any
enterprising merchant should lay in
a large stock of paper suits and ad-
vertise them at 60c each, or even $6
each, he would find plenty of buyers.
There- are many people living In
Texas, you know, who do not hesitate
to predict what the weather is going
to be, and not all of them are new
comers, either.

Q. Are Senator Harding and Governor Cox

A. No. However, Governor Cox's first
wife was distantly related to the Senator.
TABLOID TALES
One thing about Governor Cox's ac-
ceptance speech that came up to j
promises and expectations was that It
waa to the point and In such a form
that any and- everybody could under-
stand It. He used words freely to ex-
press his views and opinions, not to
conceal them.
His discussions of the League of
Nations, of course, was the main fea-
ture of his address. He characterized
the league as the supreme Issue of the
campaign and while he said he stood
for the covenant as President Wilson
brought It back from Europe, yet he
could see no harm In adding In-
terpretations that would not vitally
disturb the provisions of the covenant.
Further to emphasize his position he
referred to an excerpt from an article
contributed some months ago to
the New York Times. It follows:
"There can be no doubt but that
Home senators have been conscien-
tious in their desire to clarify the pro-
visions of the treaty. Two things ap-
parently have disturbed them: First,
they wanted to make sure that the
league was not to be an alliance, and
that Its basic purpose was peace and
not controversy. Second, they wanted
the other powers signing the instru-
ment to understand our constitutional
limitations beyond which the treaty-
making power can not go. Dealing
with these two questions In order, it
has always seemed to me that the in-
terpretation of the function of the
league might have been stated in
these words:
" "In giving its assent to this treaty
the senate has In mind the fact that
the league of Nations which It em-
bodies was devised for the sole pur-
pose of maintaining peace and comity
anumg the nations of the earth and
preventing the recurrence of such
destructive conflicts as that through
which the world has Just passed.
The co-operution of the I'nlted States
'with the league and its continuance as
a member thereof will naturally de-
pend upon the adherence of the league
to that fundamental purpose.'
"Such a declaration would at leas'
express the view of the United States
and Justify the course which our
nation would unquestionably follow
If the basic purpose of the league
were at any time distorted. It would
also appear to be a simpler matter to
provide against any misunderstanding
In the future and at the same time to
meet the objections of those who be-
lieve that we might be inviting a con-
troversy over our constitutional rights,
by making a senatorial addition in
words something like these:
~ 'It will of course be understood
that In carrying out the purpose of
the league, the government of the
United States must at all times act
In strict harmony with the terms and
Intent of the United States constitu-
tion which can not In any way be
altered by the treaty-making power.' "
There is nothing In this program
that is dangerous for the league or
fi-r the United Stales. The power of
rongress to declare war is sufficiently
protected by the constitution and the
#»astiiuUon, In turji, would b« suf-
PAPER Sl'ITS—A POSSIBILITY.
As if to heighten the morale of the
man who has grown despondent try-
ing to figure how he might make his
last year's suit look as good as new,
official word somes from Washington
to the effect that experts are to give
seiious consideration to the possi-
bility of Introducing and popularizing
paper suits In this country. It is
said—and we want to put particular
emphasis upon that qualifying clause
—that paper suits are proving success-
ful iu Germany and Australia and It
is expected that they will go like hot
cakes In this country. The most at-
tractive thing about them Is that they
may be retailed at 60c each.
Paper suits may be all right, but
the cautious individual and the native
Texan will be willing to let the other
fellow try them out. Mark Twain
once said that everybody talks about
A Splendid Compliment.
No great corporation manager ever
had a finer compliment paid him than
that given to President Mitten, of the
Rapid Transit Company, when the
employees, unanimously and en-
thusiastically, agreed to forego an in-
crease In wages, for the time at least,
rather than impose a new financial
burden upon the company at this
critical stage of lis affairs. This very
remarkable proceeding is probably
without precedent In American trans- , one
portatlon history, and Is alike credita-
ble In the highest degree to the com-
pany and to the men. it is especially
noteworthy when one recalls the bit-
terness of feeling between the P. R.
T. and Its employees in the old days
previous to the advent of the Stotes-
bury-Mltten management-
It was only a dozen years ago that
the men were striking and destroying
the company's property in a de-
termined effort to force a living wage
from an antagonistic and short-
sighted management. Now, thanks
to years of fair and liberal dealing, in
which every pledge of the employees
has been faithfully kept, the latter ex- .
press their appreciation of this broad-
gauge policy by doing what they can j
to help the company financially.
Nothing more strikingly Illustrative
ot the value of eo-operatlVe effort be-
tween company and men can be
imagined, and President Mitten, even
if he had never accomplished more
than this, could feel that hla work
had been brilliantly successful.
In this time of Industrial unrest
these unique relations of harmony be-
tween the P. R. T. and Its employees
would seem deserving of study by
other corporation managements. They
seem to point the way to the solution
of a good many vexatious problems.—

ARTESIAN WELL DWINDLES
TO A MERE TRICKLE
(Assc-.sted Press Dispatch.)
Corpus Ohristl, Tex., Aug. #.—The
artesian plaza here, one of the most
famous mineral springs in Texas since
the earliest days of the state, has
dwindled to a mere trickle. Devotees
of the water declare unless new casing
soon is pieced in the well it will cease
altogether o flow. The question of
reopening the well Is expected to be
taken up soon with the city council.
Just how old the well Is, no one seems
to know, but elderly men here In re-
citing memories of their boyhood be-
fore the Civil war tell of drinking the
sulphur water of this spring.
Unique medicinal properties are at-
tributed to the water and for many
years before other springs became
fashionable, many people from all
parts of Texas and adjoining states
as well made annual pilgrimages to
Corpus Christl to drink the water or
bathe in it. Skin eruptions and other
external ills were said to be benefited
by the healing qualities of the water.-
It requires a long time to fill even a
email cup at the spring now.
