Knox Can't Do His Part.

Texas will Investigate" the lynch
ing Of the Mexican citizen who was
burned to death at the stake at Rock
Springs in that state, said lynching
later leading to riots against Amer
leans in Mexico. Secretary of State
Knox asked what could be done by
Texas in this matter. The reply of
Governor Campbell is that the mat
ter will be inquired into"
1t is a safe enough guess that in
this mixup Secretary Knox will De
put at a disadvantage. He will ask
Diaz to punish those Mexicans who
assaulted Americans; and Diaz viii
punish them, perhaps going the
length OF shooting several offenders.
And then Diaz in turn will ask
| Secretary Knox to punish those
Americans who in Texas burned a
Mexican citizen. Our secretary will
not be able to reciprocate. He must
! turn the matter over to the Texas
authorities, and perhaps these will
content themselves with 'investigat-
| ing and 'inquiring into"
And then a little later will come
| Diaz again and he may remark that
he is getting the short end of this
arrangement: that he Furnishes the
| offenders within his jurisdiction but
| that Americans do not punish their
offenders. Secretary Knox can only
reply that it is not in his power to
have the Texas offenders punished.
that he can only turn that matter
over to the authorities of Texas.
| It is not sure this will be very sat-
| is factory to Diaz. However, he may
keep his displeasure to himself, have
his feeling of injustice in silence.
! That is because ne is not in position
| to enforce any other course.
| But this sort of thing does not
show US we'll before the world.

SHOW BOATS FEATURES
ON MIDDLE WEST RIVERS.
Theatrical Folk Gain In Comfort What
They Lose In Salary.

Show boats have become an estab-
lished feature along the rivers OF the
middle west. There is not a river of
any consequence but what has seen
some OF these craft The wabash, the
Green, the Tennessee. the Cumberland
and the Red rivers have all been Wis
fled by the smaller ones, and year by
year the class Of people who watch the
performances becomes more desirable.
Low class predictions would not be
tolerated, even If the management
should attempt to put on such 4 show.
It is only another instance Of the sur
vival of the dttest."
Not many ofSthe. performers On show
boats care to admit the amount of their
weekly pay, for it is seldom large. OF
course there is no set scale Of wages,
and there have been n. few high sal
aried people who have put in all or o
part Of q season with Q floating theater
It is not by any means the salary
which makes such a position popular
The enjoyment corues from the com
plete relaxation from the nervous
strain which the profession suffers dur
ing the summer months on land tours,
due to excessive heat, constant pack
ing and unpackinG. hurried journeys in
uncomfortable railways and. most
dreaded of all, the necessity of "dress-
ing up for the benefit of the public
each day.
On the floating theater each perform
er grows to feel that he or she is at
home and may with perfect freedom
affect the dishabille of private house.
Fortunes have been made in the show
boat industry and are still to be made,
and there can be no doubt that from
the performers point Of view it is one
of the most pleasant forms Of the en-
tertaining business that have ever been
devised

Widening the Thanksgiving Circle.

t'Home is the natural objective
point for every one at the Thanks
giving season." says Margaret E.
Sangster in Woman's Home Compan-
ion for November. This is why the
stranger far from kinsfolk and IA
miIiar friends is especially lonely
amid general merrymaking. Widen
the circle so that it may include at
your dinner table your boys chum
who cannot cross the continent to
be with his own people on the happy
day. Let your daughter invite from
the college two or three of the girl
friends to share Thanksgiving with
her.
mot 30 long ago man told me
that when he first left home to be-
come a clerk in a department store
III Philadelphia, nothing so touched
him as the thoughtful kindness of
his employers wife who never for
got to invite him to her home on hol-
idays, assuring him that he was
as welcome at her Thanksgiving din
ner as If he had been a boy of her
own.
There are ways Of widening the
circle without necessarily going into
the highways and by-ways and bring
ing in the halt and the blind. If there
is among your friends a washer
woman who works hard to feed and
clothe her children, a seamstress
whose earnings barely cover her
needs, if there are orphan children
in whom you take an interest. see
to it that you share Thanksgiving
with them in an unobstrusive way
of sending good cheer. 1 say, inten-
tionaIly, among your friends. 1t is
a barren life in which sympathy is
confined to a single set of people,
and unless we have friends among all
classes and conditions, we are to be
pitied for our narrowness.

A1dr1ch,s Probable Successor.

Henry F. Lippit, a Rhode Island
cotton manufacturer of great wealth
announces his candidacy for the
United States senate to succeed Nell
son W. Aldrich.
Lippit is especially interested In
high protection, in the support of
trusts and combines and in legis-
Iation. He is one of the leading mag
mates of the cotton manufacturing
industry of New England, which,
while it has for years received all the
protection it has asked for and has
made vast profits, has paid its en-
ployes about the smallest wages
paid to any class of operatives in the
United States.
The cotton manufacturing cor
porations of Massachusetts,, Rhode
Island and New Hampshire are enor-
mors!y wealthy. The men, women
and children who work for them,
genera,Iy speaking, recti!1 very low
wages ard live from AND to mouth.
It is this factory system that
Henry F. Lippit represents. Aldrich,
seeing that he has become extremely
unpopular, not simply in his own
state, but throughout the nation,
retires but he plans to have for
successor one of his own class, man
who represents aggregated wealth,
who is a friend of the trusts, who is
a standpatter. prominent in machine
politics in his state and every way
as educational as Aldrich himself.
The announcement of his candi-
dacy probably means his election.
The DeoDIa of Rhode Island have
nothing to do with the election of
United States senator. That bust
ness is attended to by the big cor
porations. The man they wish to
have a seat in the United States
senate is made a member of that
body 1t has been so for years.
But with the changes in both
houses resulting from the recent
elections, it is not likely that Mr..
.Aldrich's successor will have the
