URGED TO BE ARBITRATOR.

President Roosevelt, who is regarded
as a man OF fearless resolution, has
neen placed in position of hesitation
oy the insistence of Germany and En-
gland that he shall act as arbitrator in
the Venezuelan trouble. The president
prefers that the subject be submitted
to The Hague tribunal. President Cas-
tro, however, objects to this tribunal,
'deening 1t to be essentially an Eu-
ropean court, dominated by the great
powers, and that it could not be ex-
pected to give fair hearing to the case
OF little South Aemriean republic.
Castro also urges President Roosevelt
to act as arbitrator, intimating that he
would not accept any other. The de-
mand thus coming from all the powers
directly interested makes an urgent
plea for acceptance.
The acceptance of the role of arbi-
traitor, however, is made more difficult
for President Roosevelt because our
public men are divided in their opinions
or this subject. Those who are con-
servative and who fear complications
would arise involving our nation in
seme forceful methods to carry out the
decision reached should the president
consent to act, advise him to keep
hands off. But the position as arbitra-
tor does not require thta the one so
acting should enforce DEGREES.
force DEGREES.
While 1t is a disagrenable task for
any tribunal at best, 1t would be prefer
able that the president should act than
that active war should follow the block
ade. Of course it is a state war at
present, but 1t might become worse and
involve our own nation in a more un-
pleasant role than that Of arbitrator.
1t is hoped that our president and cabi-
net will give the subject full considera-
ton before reaching a decision that
may be regretted later on.

 While in Louisville said MT. Frank, 'I was in conference with George Tebeau, of the American association.

 The robbers started on their horses, which were near by, the man that had Leen talking to the squaw joined them and the three hurried away, leaving no clue.

MARION CADETS
 PLAY GOOD GAME
FOOTBALL TEAM FROM MERIDIAN WAS UNABLE TO SCORE AND AT THE END THE BALL HAD NOT PASSED EITHER GOAL LINE.

Marion, November 3.-(Special-)- -)-Marion to a standstill. In two hard fought halves the cadets of the institute played the heavy team from Meridian to a standstill in the athletic field this afternoon The final score was to 0. In the beginning of the first half the cadets carried the ball to Meridians 10-yard line by series of brilliant end rushes. Here the ball went to Meridian on downs. By a long kick and by a tumble of the cadets Meri- dian secured the ball on Marion's 1Osyard line Then it was pushed to the 3-yard line Then the cadets threw the heavy Meridian line back for loss of six yards. Here Meridian failed at a try for goal from the field. Soon afterward time was called with the ball in the center of the field.
 The second half was marked by the fierce tackling and brilliant running of the cadets. They carried it steadily to Meridians 5-yard line when they lost it on downs. When time was called the ball was on Merdian's 15-yard line. The features of the game were the brilliant taelxling of Jones Brothers and Stoltzfus and the line bucl1ing of Brett for the visitors for the cadets Wilkerson, May Smith and Pltner won especial distinc- tion. The flying tackle of Wilkerson and the long runs of Fitner brought down the bleachers. The visitors played bril- liant individual game but showed lack of practice and training. Their individual playing was excellent. but they could not hold together. Throughout the game was an exhibit of clean, superb football
