two children and had refused to con-
tribute to their support. She stated
that he had left home yesterday in
his automobile for parts unknown and
asked that a warrant for his arrest
be issued. Browning is % years old,

her 9th birthday yesterday did not
deter him from his intention, so she
claimed.

car last night and left there at
o'clock this morning for parts un-
known. He is a machinist by trade

HI]ERTA TAKES WATER
PLEADS FOR DELAY
FEARS READING OF PRESIDENT WILSON'S
MESSAGE MAY TURN TIDE OF SYMPATHY.
ADMINISTRATION ALL SMILES
Wilson Has Given Him "a Hours in Which to Decide
If He Will Meet Peace Terms Offered Through
John Lind.

WASHINGTON, Aug. 26.-Peace is
near in Mexico. The latest adyices re-
ceiyed from Mexico City indicates that
President Huerta is wayering and VIII
probably accept American mediation
within "a hours. President wilson
has acquiesced to Huerta's request for
further delay with the prOviso that he
will deliver the Mexican message to
congress within "a hours unless the
peace proposals are accepted.
It is officially stated that the admin
istration at Washington will fulfill
John Lind's latest suggestions, pro-
yided they are acceptable to Huerta.
President Huerta is not asked to re-
sign. President Wilson only asks for
assurance that he will retire after
successor has been chosen at a gen
uire election.
Considered Ultimatum.
The postponement of President
Wilson's address practically amounts
to an ultimatum giving President HUI
erta "a hours in which to decide. The
administration learned today that the
request for more time came direct
from Huerta. Advices say that John

ident Huerta and Minister of Foreign

there will be an acceptance OF Llnd's

1t also develops that Colonel Roose-
welt does not swear. Here is a lesson
for you, young fellow. In order to have
a good strong, accurate, graphic, pictur
esque, vitriolic, vocabulary when you
wish to express dislike for any person,
place OF thing, it is not necessary to
swear. In fact, swearing, like all other
slang limits the vocabulary of the most
man who uses it. Colonel Roosevelt is
in many respects a most remarkable
mana great American, in many good
senses of the phrase. He neither gets
drunk nor swears. He does not have to.
He needs no artificial stimulants, either
physically or grammatically.

WORTH WEIGHING.

The railroads complain that they are
strangled by the rate legislation. The
cost of labor has increased, they say,
and the cost of material used in repairs
and construction has increased. The
prices of commodities hauled by the
railroads have increased. The railroad
alone of all other business institutions
cannot increase the price charged for
any service it renders the public. 1t can
not share in the increasing prosperity
OF the country. The time when the roads
will be strangled is at hand if not al
ready here. As expense increase, profits
must steadily decrease, until the point
will be reached and passed where they
e~qualize each other. When that time
arrives, disaster will overtake both the
carrier and its patrons.
The complaint is worthy of serious at
t%ention. 1t cannot be disposed of in the
best interests of the country by simply
denying the truthfulness of it. Not many
of us are in possession of a sufficient
amount of information to settle the mat
ter for ourselves. Hence it will be well
for legislative bodies to look into these
things.
If the cmplaint is to be accepted at
it's face value, the roads are many of
them in a bad way and are likely to be
in a worse way. a railroad is not of
necessity a public enemy. On the con
trary it is a great convenience. and
also a source Of development and pub
lie prosperity.
Not many people will be willing to
see railroads or any public service cor
pOrations relieved of reasonable super
vision by the states. and the federal COY
eminent Yet most men can see Il real
danger to the public when the law I'M
dertakes to fix for all time the price to
be charged by a private Individual or
a corporation for any commodity or for
any public service. as long as all other
kinds of business remain ~unregulatcd.
The individual or corporation with a
fixed price must be at Il disadvantage
where prices fiuctuate.
Regulation is all right no doubt. but
there are probably ways to make it flcX-
ible.
