THEY CANE BY AUTO
.RVIaRdGF and Hooks Arrive
in Americas

Concluding a tour OF eighteen nun
dred and two miles, Walter Ryland-
er and J. D. Hooks, dusty and travel
stained, but elated over the success
of their venture, reached Americas at
o'clock Saturday afternoon, coming
the most direct route from Niagara
Falls and Buffalo, their starting point.
1t was the longest automobile trip
yet accomplished by anyone here, and
made without mishap, barring three
tire punctures sustained in the noun

1t was a great boosting trip for
Americus ond Sumter county, and the
Board OF Trade has cause for con
graduation.
As stated, the tour was begun At
Niagara Falls instead of Providence

used was purchased by them at the

Across New York State.
Starting from Buffalo on June 80
the trip to Americas, 1902 miles, was
made in just sixteen days, including
stops Of day or two at important
points and three days in New Vol

trip was made along the east shore u
the Hudson River, 200 miles to the
great metropolis of America.

WATERLOO MEMORIAL
 FOR BATTLE VICTIMS

BRUSSELS. June 22.-An influen- tlal Belgian committee was recently formed to celebrate, on June IS. 1915, the 100 anniversary of the bat tie of Waterloo. The object of the committee is not SC much to glorify the great victory won by Wellington and Butcher as to render adequate homage. regardless of nationality, to all the heroes who took part in the m0nentOus battle.
 With this aim in view. one of the early steps taken by the committee win be the collecting of all the bones which are even yet to be found in large numbers around the battlefield. These will be put in a vast tomb ard a monument will be erected in honor of the unidentified fallen sol diors. Allegorical statuary will be feature of this monument

OLD ACE DlMs REASON,
CEl Paso Herald)

Diaz displays the weakness of age and increasing infirmity, in his bitter denunciation of those who brought about his overthrow any real trait of his character, but only a su-
 erficial temper due partly to hurt pride and disappointment, partly 70 illness. chiefly 10 the failure of the physical body and mind to maintain their full vigor. The interviews he has given out are pathetic and should not cause any offense or arouse resentment His sense Of loss and failure must be keen, and it IS easy to pardon his hard words spok- en in grief and doubt rather than m anger. Nor is it necessary to take up his indictment in detail and dis cuss or refute it.. His opinions now are interesting, but not vital. Mexico has gone past him.

SAME OLD STORY.
Arizona Democrat /

Senator Bristow, the loud-mouthed ''reformer," is adding another illus tration of the so-caled insurgent re- formers. This class shrieked them selves hoarse about electing senators by a direct vote of the people; then after a democratic house passed the bill that met every requirement., that Kansas bogus reformer attached an amendment onto it that he knew well would meet the opposition of .every southern state. That was to give United States marshals super vision of elections in the south. Tle men south of the Mason and Dixon line settled that question years ago, and settled it for all time The men .of the south are capable of conduct ing their elections, and they do not propose at this day to reopen that question.
 Bristow realized that his amend ment was the surest way to kill the measure; hence its introduction

KAISER WITHH0LDS HIS
 VIEWS ON ART QUESTIONS

BERLIN, June 22.-The kaiser at times has been severely criticised for his somewhat arbitrary opinions on all forms of art. As a result he has be- come somewhat sensitive and is more cautious in offering any imperial ad- vice on art matters. Also the German artists who work for him, knowing how the public is inclined to criticise any one connected directly or indi- rectly with the kaiser's art proclivi- ties. are becoming a little less anxious 10 receive imperial orders.
 The story is now told that a high court official asked the kaiser to offer his aid to 9 struggling young artist. The kaiser, however, refused to do so. as he alleged that his support would not hep the artist. as he knew how severely the public criticised his own art views.

ment makes no change in the pres ent authority of congress over state elections is only a half-trnth. Con gress at present has a general pow CT of regulation over elections al which members of both houses are chosen, but so far as senators are concerned this power is not or great practical importance.
 Under normal circumstances sena tors now are really elected eithet at 6 primary or al the election ai which legislators are chosen. Con gress not presuming to interfere in the essentially state function of e senatorial primary or an election of legislators. its supervision of sena toriai elections is practically cOnfin- ed to a few perfunctory matters of routine affecting the baIloting after a legislature assemblies.
 But federal supervision of senator ial elections when senators are chos en by popular vote would be a very different thing. It might mean an interference with statewide primary and election votes. which. with tHe state as unit. would be more exten- sive and irksome than anything like ly in the supervision of the elections for representatives. in which the con gessionai district is normally the unit.
 For many reasons the addition of the Briston amendment is to be re gretted The antecedents of not few of those who supported il and the circumstances of it's adoption, In the face Of a known hostility of for. midabie proportions in the House. make it evident that it was attached for the express purpose of bringing about the defeat of this great re form.
 Such is certain to be the popular construction placed ou it's adoption, if the deadlock between the two houses proves to be prolonged.

PRESS COMMENT
DOUGLAS EFFORT APPLAuDED. CEl Paso Herald)

CEl Paso Herald)
 me Douglas chamber of commerce is embarking upon a practical work in raising money to sink test wells for artesian water in the nearby valley.
 With water sufficient for irrigation, Douglas has a remarkably rich lot of land that will prove most productive. Agricultural experts who have inves- tigated. declare that the soil is very superior and tests have shown this to be a fact, for some very fine products under irrigation have been grown in that vicinity.
 Any community is investing money rightly when it spends 1t for agri- cultural development. for a farming community is a stable community: : it is not a shifting one. The farmers spend their money year in and year out, according as they prosper from the result of their efforts in tilling the soil, and they make possible cheaper food for the home Market
 Fl Paso has learned to appreciate the value of the farmer. although farming is in the development stage even here, and Douglas and other communities will do we'll to lend every assistance they can to the man who follows the blow and yields the hoe
