Although houseke ng and

of all things, yet they are
sought after the very least. Girls

these things will take care Of them
selves, and they can live happy with
a man in his ignorance, knowing,
too, that the heart and stomach OF
man are so friendly that they can
not be separated. Ignorance cannot

there is no surer way to lose respect
of a husband than to spoil his din

Where Is the Fiesta Cash?

Brawley is in thrOes OF excitement
over the disappearance from the city's
safe of fund of s514.57 from the
Cantaloupe Fiesta subscriptions which
was held pending the decision in the
suit of Glenn Martin, the aviator,
against the fiesta committee for $500
claimed under his contract for making
airship flights during the fiesta. and
which the Brawley folk claim were
not up to contract. The money had
been placed in the city's safe by
Vaughn Thompson, who was acting as
assistant city clerk, and upon his re-
moval to Ell Centro, where he is now
deputy county clerk, he took receipt
for the money from Chairman Klasgye
OF the fiesta committee. When W. H.
| Whalen, city clerk of Brawley, re-
signed his position, the box was in
the safe. Marshal Emerson opened it,
thinking that it contained revOlvers be.
longing TO the city, and he replaced
the coin in a new box. Now the coin
has disappeared. District Attorney
Swing and Sheriff Meadows were in
Brawley yesterday investigating the
affair, but their conclusions have not
been made public.

r-HE IMPERIAL SITUATION

When an agreement was clrcu-
lated among the farmers Of the Mes
quite Lake section some weeks ago,
elghty-eight of them in one day signed
a pledge TO withdraw all trade from
Imperial in case the town went for
booze, and information came 10 the
Press yesterday that the farmers Of
that section not only propose 10 carry
out their agreement, but they are
starting 4 movement for the removal
of the Office of Water Company No
from Imperial, declaring this 10 be
necessary in Withdrawing from all bus
mess relationship with the town the
majority of citizens of which have set
the town TO the task of debauching the
valley.
It also came to the attention of the
Press that at least three pupils OF the
high school will withdraw from the
school at once, the parents not wish
ing their children brought up under
saloon influence, while it is reported
that a number of other parents will
follow the same course.
Added to the fact published yester-
day that one business firm has al
ready arranged TO move from Imperial
to Ell Centro comes the definite state
ment from two others of the most
prominent business men of Imperial
that they will withdraw from the town
because of the triumph of booze.
Never did any town face a more crit
ical condition than does Imperial to-
day. Heavily bonded as it is. the grad
ual ascendency of the booze element
there has deprecated values and made
it even now almost impossible to meet
its interest obligations.
With the town now adopting pol
icy which will Danish many of its most
substantial families and business
houses and utterly destroy its magnifi-
cent schools, with the farmers Of the
valley aroused to resent the attempt
eG legal debauchery Of the young men
of the entire valley. there is wide
reaching belief among men of business
training that financial bankruptcy Of
the town is sure to follow moral bank
ruptcy.

Brawley News: The Studebaker
! Corporation of America, manufacture
crs of the we'll known K. NJ +. and
Flanders automobiles, has arranged
with the Stanley-DeBlois Company to
represent the sale Of their cars in
Imperial county, with headquarters at

1t is hardly necessary TO call atten-
ton to the fact that the Z. NJ. T. and
Flanders cars comprise one of the best
known and one of the best selling
lines of automobiles to be found in
the United States. and carefully kept
records will show that during 1911
more of these cars were sold in the
state of California than those of any
other single manufacturer. The stu
debaker people maintain branch
house in Los Angeles. where a large
number of new automobiles are al
ways TO be had upon instant notice,
aid where many thousands of dollars
worth of parts are carried for the ben
eft of the agents and customers. The

DASTARDLY ACT.

The people throughout this ma
ton condemn 10 no uncertain terms
the dastardly act Of the crank OF
whatever be may be properly called
who attempted to take the life Of
ex- President Roosevelt while in Mil.
waukee on his campaign tour.
The attempt to end the life Of the
former President was resolved by all
of the people regardless of their poll
teal crsed or religious belief with
profound regret and sorrow.
Colonel Roosevelt is not only one
of the ablest and most beloved men
in the country but holds one of the
foremost places among the ranks Of
our private citizens, He is a big,
energetic and powerful man whose
influence is felt all over the country
That we do MT agree with his poll
teal views or that others do not,
lessons not a whit, the great coaster
nation that spread over this country
upon learning Of the disgraceful at
tempt upon his life.
We join with every true American
in deploring the act and eongratula-
ting the eminent statement that be
escaped the unceremonious death
that was intended for him by the
assassin, as ell as wish him all pos
slble recovery with as little pain as
possible during his forced retirement.

BUSINESS BOOMING.

The reports of the leading com
mercial agencies at the close of last
week were alike in tenor and in a
condensed form what they say is that
in all branches Of trade and industry
shere is almost unprecedented ac-
tiyity. Factories Of every class and
description are working at high pres
sur. and the railroads everywhre are
hustling to move the freightage that
is being piled up at every way sta
ton. The commercial reports make
no reference to the political situation
or to TIE influence which govern
mental policies have exerted or may
exert in future upon trade Industrial
ism.
But no discriminating observer can
tail to understand that government ]
policies have always had determining
influence for good or for bad uron
the country's industriallsm. This
should be noted-that since the en-
actment Of the Payne tariff, soon
after President Taf's administration
began, all kinds Of business, includ-
ing agriculture, have steadily devel-
oped along prosperous lines. The
proof of any tariff is in its practical
operation. Under the existing tariff
not only has treasury deficit been
turned into a surplus, but business in
all Of its ramifcations has flourished.
Three weeks from today the
sovereign American people are to de-
termine whether or not they will
change this policy under which the
country is prospecting 1t is absurd
to contend that government has little
to do with making business prosper
Gus or otherwise. We have had so
many object lessons as to reversals
that may be brought about by unwise
tariff tiDkering that there is no ex.
cuse for lack of understanding in
this respect. Most assuredly this is
a time when well enough should be
let alone.
