THE PUBLIC CONSCIENCE

The last issue of the National
Monthly contains the following
article by Governor Thomas r.
Marshall of Indiana. 1t deserves
the careful consideration Of every
patriotic citizen:
The Public Conscience is but a
composite photograph of the private
consciences of individual citizens.
Its makeup is determined by the
number subjerting themselves to
the camera. Every man who reads
every original thinker, and every
enc publicly expressing a view.is an
exposure.
1t is said that corruption wins
more tt an honesty. and the Indi-
vidual Conscience, when not
engaged in passing judgement upon
public or private conduct may be
said to be right. This is clearly
demonstrablc by the applause,
which, in every theater is &C
corded the hero, and the kissing
which follows the conduct, or to
obtain right expression as to their
conduct.
All life appears to be periodic.
There is progress and then a
retrograde movement. Yet, ever
there is an advance, however
slight, from year to year. Every
phase of life is like the pendulum
of a clock. 1t swings through it's
arc from ultra conservatism to
ultra radicalism, and unfortunately,
it is paused at tie golden mean,

cerned. would be no more. In the
municipality and in the nation we
have these periods of great public
awakening. and the conscience of
the people discloses only the faircr
features Of the individual. There
is such a period now in American
public life. This is good; this
augurs well. Do you ask me will
it be vitalized in legislation and
public life? My answer is--it
depends. Sin is TOO much what
the other fellow does. "Ortho-
doxy is my dCxy; hctcrodoxy is
your doxy." 1t is not easy to admit
that you may be the-vllian und he
may be the hero. Democracy
stands for equal and exact justice
to all men, and special privileges to
none. Off go our hats to the
sentiment and we beam with
satisfaction over the thought
that we believe in it. But sup
pose the capitalization of the
conscience into law and business
should lessen the value of dollar,
increase the value Of man.

DR.. VASQUEZ GOMEZ
GIVEN THE CREDIT
Washington Agent of Reb-
ell Junta Kept the Wires
Hot Urging Madero Not to
Capture Juarez.
(American News Service)


Washington. April 22-An armistice
between the Mexican federal govern
ment and General Maderos revolution
ary army went into effect this MORN
ing as a result of great pressure
brought to bear by DR.. Vasquez Gomez
the Washington representative of the
revolutionary junta. who had kept the
wires busy with cipher kilograms
since yesterday noon. Madero was
finally convinced that possible fail
ure to capture Juarez would place him
in ridiculous position and jeopardize
the entire insurrecto movement
The dispatch from Madero express
ing willingness to enter peace negotia-
tons caused surprise in Washington
as an earlier dispatch from Ell Paso In
dicated that the insurrecto leader
would stand Arm and insist that Juar-
ez be surrendered to him before he
would agree to an armistice.
The bringing about of the peace me-
gotiations is a personal triumph for
diplomatic affairs of the provisional
government here he has moved care
fully and has avoided pitfalls into
which untried diplomats usually fall.
Madero's acquiescence is direct out
come of dispatch sent from Gomez
to the insurrecto camp. stating that an
attack on Juarez at this time would
be unwise and probably would result
in American Intervention.
He Informed Madero that public
sentiment was in favor of ending the
strife at once and that the rebellion
would lose the moral support 1t has
had hitherto if there was heavy loss
of life at JuareZ.
Arguments used by Gomez were
strengthened by pressure brought to
bear upon the insurrecto leader by his
father, who arrived at the Madero
camp last night.

SUIT WAS
CONCLUDED TODAY
Case of Neff Against Moss
Went to the Jury Late 4
This Afternoon.

The jury of the Wayne circuit court
damage suit of A. J. Neff, cobbler,
against Perry j. Moss, retired farm
er and former merchant, for personal
injuries as a result of an accident on
last Fourth of July at Eighth and
Main streets, received the case about
o'clock this afternoon. Neff was
struck by the defendants automobile
and sustained a broken right ltg in
two places and badly wrenched mus
cles of the back.
Owing to the illness of the wife of
one of the jurors, the Saturday ses-
sion did not convene until 10 o'clock.
Henry U. Johnson, one of the counsel
for the defendant, spent the remain
der of the morning in the concluding
argument for the defense, while the
prosecution closed it's case in the aft
ernoon with the argument of Attor-
ney Wilfred Jessup. Judge Fox then
read his instructions which were brief
and explanatory of legal terms and
questions arising in the trial
The complainant had alighted from
a city street car and started to walk
east near the car, when the Moss ma
chine came from the west and struck
him down. it being stopped with the
front left car wheel resting on both
legs. Mr.. Neff was taken to the hos
pital and has not yet entirely recov-
cred, being compelled to walk with the
aid of crutch. He has not followed
his vocation of repairing shoes since
the accident. The defense claims that
Mrs Neff stepped directly in front of
the automobile and the accident was
unavoidable
In his instructions to the jury, Judge
Fox said that in case the jury found
both parties were to blame for the
accident, the plaintiff can not recover
from the defendant Contributory
negligence on the part of the com.
plainant. the court instructed. would
be sufficient cause for returning a yer.
dict for the defendant. In case the
jury finds for Mr. Neff, the jury fixes
the amount of award.
