BIG MEN MAKE Big as1srAkEs

Presidential candidates ARE apparent.
ly not so much wiser thsn other people.
Theyar very apt "ws,ea they open theii
mouths to put their foot in it," A
couple Of weeks ago Woodrow Wilson,
the.democratic candidate, told the edi.
tor of Harprrs Weekly that he would
feel.ol,liged it the latter would not sup
port. his candidacy any longer. As Har-
perssNWeekly was the isst paper to bring
Mr.. Wilson's name before the public
thiswas rather hard cut The reason,
while not given to the public, is under.
stoed to be that Hanpsr.s Weekly is
owaed largely by some 0f the monied
interests
Then this week, Mr.. LaF0llette ad-
dressing a meeting ofmagasine and news
paper publishers. denounced the daily
prees OF the country as paid or owned by
the money interests aad that their edi-
torial statements were discounted &C.
coruingly by the reading public.
Mr.iLaFollette made the mistake ''of
taking IN too much territory.
: A part Of the daily pr-ss of the coun.
try would doubtless come under his
classification. But he did not. make any
special distinction.
The chairman of the meeting. gave La
Follette st,nging rebuke .as soon as he
sat down, and the whole press Of the
country have becn rebuking him ever
since. tOnsall sides it hiss 'bsen agreed
that Mr.. .LaF Toilet made great. IL not
a vital.err in his demuaication Of the
men, tnany Of whom were his hosts and
present. at the table.

$500 Worth for $500

You are going to vote for a presiden-
tial candidate this fall to fill the chair
at the White House for a term of four
years and there are numerous and
weighty questions to be decided before
he is selected. The Sioux City Daily
Tribune, an independent newspaper,
publishes intelligently the solution of
these questions through its editorial
columns and its splendid system of tel
egraphic reports. Its general Jews pag-
es are replete with daily reports from
the states and foreign countries. You
can hardly afford to be without such a
paper, mailed for only $500 a year.
If you will hand that amount to the
publisher of this paper or send direct
to The Tribune at Sioux City, the pa
per will be mailed to your address for
twelve months.

slroy, were Lssne-rrearseu
and Cheerful.

Charles Brown, the English come
dian. lost a number of friends in the
Titanic tragedy. He knew most of the
officers on the Inflated ship, and the
purser, McElroy, had been his COM
rade for years. A recent letter from
England brought to the actor the last
words of M~cElroy-an au revoir Of.
life which is notable for its calm Brit
ish courage.
The fourth officer, Marzials, who
went down with the ship and was
picked up by a boat, is the man who
testifes to McElroy's behavior. A
small group OF the Titanic staff was
waiting for the final plunge. The wa
ter was tapping the deck at their very
feet and the end was merely a ques-
ton of a very few minutes. McElroy
turned to his companions with a smile
and shook hands with them, saying:
well, good-by, fellows; it looks like
sand for breakfast tomorrow"
THAT was typical Of McI1lroy,'' says
Brown. Gle was n of the merriest,
ibravest men who ever lived. 1t was
like him to have his little joke in the
face of DEATH"

DEPENDED ON THE HUSBANDS
Lady Book Agent Found 1t the Same
With Both Wife and
Widow.

The Tired Lady Book Agent was
having a very poor day. She had rung
innumerable door bells and talked till
she was hoarse to all kinds of people.
She had in eyery case been invited in,
which was a good beginning. She had
told her story, gone into details of
half-calf, morocco, and plain cloth
bindings, but no sale had been made.
Young m and old had given the
same excuse for not subscribing then
and there.
Eyes, I like it very, very much, but
I must consult my husband"
Surely" the Book Agent thought,
mo one can say that women disregard
their husbands wishes even in these
Eotes-for-Women days"
Finally, late in the afternoon the
last house was reached.
Hal" said the Book Agent, glee-
fully. Here's where / get a sale;
She's a widow, and she won't have to-
consult her husband"
So she rang the bell hopefully and
was received by the Widow, who lis
tened with great interest to the story
of the merits Of the books.
Just as the Book Agent was begin
ming to think she was making a sale
the Widow sighed and said:
mo, I can't take it today. II only
my dear husband We're alive,
wouldn't hesitate a minute."

WHY SOME SUCCEED
And Others Fail Is an Unanswered
Question.

us there such a thing as factor OF
success? Have those men who have tri-
umphed in the world of endeaVor done so
bv following some rule that was common
to them all? Does such rule exist? In
other words is there a common denOmi-
nator upon which rest the nominators or
success? Do successful men know
how they succeed? They do, but. for the
life of them, they cannot tell you how:
They will say that they have worked
hard, been punctual always, been honest
saved their money, been watchful of OPP
portunities, and-and-and-well, that's
about all.
Interesting speculation, isn't it? It's the
beginning Of the leading article in our
next Sunday Magazine. entitled THE
Factor of Success written by George
Buchanan Fife. AS he says, nobody can
tell why success comes to some and not
to others, and he cites several actual
cases to prove the uncertainty of it.
For instance, a floor walker in de-
partment store, on account of his cour-
tesy to rich customer, the wife OF fac
tory magnate, was given a position with
the latter and ultimately acquired an in
terest in the institution, which he sold
out later for $18,00OOOO. Another one, a
clothing wholesaler, the creditor of q
small order house, was persuaded to IN
vest $4,000 in the latter in the hope OF
could recover what was owing him, and
now the clo;hier is the head of an es-
Establishment that is worth fully 1900. 900.
Another. drug clerk, had lent his
$1,000 of savings to a friend who started
a machine shop. and, having to go into
a millionaire in it. All these things make
a man wonder; but he is unable to solve
the problem, to reduce it to definite
why"

RED CROSS RIVALRY FOUND.
American Branch Issues Warning in
Solicitation of War Funds.

The discovery of Red Cross rivalry in
the raising of funds for relief work in
the Balkan states has caused the Amer
lean Red Cross to issue a formal state
ment setting forth that all organizations
or persons except those belonging to the
Red Cross of the United States who So
licit or receive funds in the name of the
Red Cross are acting in fragrant viola
ton of the law. The federal statutes
make the national Red Cross organiza-
ton the only officially recognized Red
Cross in the United States.
The American Red Cross operations"
says the statement. have been very
much embarrassed and their efficiency in
raising funds for Balkan war relief very
much impaired by the coming into eX-
istence of committees claiming to act in
the name of the national societies of for
eign countries
The American Red Cross today cabIed
through the State Department the fol-
lowing remittances for relief work in the
Balkan war: To the Bulgarian Red Cross
Society, $1,000; to the Servian Red Cross
Society, $1,000: to. Ambassador Rockhill
at Constantinople, $1,000; to the Greek
Red Cross Society, $500: making a total
of funds forwarded to date for the above
purpose of sos, $50.

Pimas Are Sufferers.

The Pima Indians Of Arizona were suf-
ferers from the rapacity of their white
neighbors Conspicuously prosperous
farmers that splendid industry was taken
away from them by the diversion OF the
ella river, which watered their fertile
fields. The water was appropriated by
white settlers farther up stream, and the
Indians became largely dependent upon
the government
The Pima Indians have been hard hit
in other ways. Charges OF misconduct
and misapprOpriation of funds. intended
for the Pima Indian reservation are pend
ing against officials. The board of com
missioners expresses the hope that. IL
the wrong is proven. the guilty may be
prosecuted to the full extent of the law.
A record of twenty-five years of hardship
inflicted on this tribe of Indians, says the
report makes it important that every one
who attempts to aggravate that situation
should be shown that it is a dangerous
proceeding.
