TOOTS REAM SUICIDES
Young Man Suffering With Form
of Dementia "Ends It ALL"

Horace, or "Toots" Ream. aged 81
years, & months and 3 days, son OF
Mr.. and Mrs. John +. Ream, suicided
at his fathers place near eBacon
southwest OF town Sunday morning
by hanging. The body was found
about one o'clock in the barn of the
joan Ream place.
Young Ream has been suffering
with a form of dememtia somewhat
recently ad within the month his con.
dition had become so pronounced that
he has been under medical treatment
and has been watched almost con.
Stantly, as relatives had feared for
his own well being or that of others.
He has been left little 10 himself un,
til Sunday morning when he managed
to evade watchfulness and was able
to accomplish his own destruction.
Representing to his wife that he
would go to his fathers home, only
"a short distance from his own home
near Glenwood park, he was permit
ted to go out unaccOmpanied. He
visited at the parental place, where
be appeared to be better and in eX-
Icellent spirits, seeming perfectly nat.
Iural. Between eight and nine o'clock
he remarked to his father that he
must be going back home, as they
were going to have company for din
ner and he wanted TO fix up. He
started off in the direction of his resi-
dence and no more was thought OF
the incident. But he did not return
to his home. He stopped at the Ream
barn, which is between the two
homes. Mrs. Ream thought that her
husband was with his father and no
attention was paid to his absence UNI
til time for dinner, when the little
son was sent to the grandfather s
home to see why his papa hod not
come home TO dinner. He was not at
the home of his father and search was
Immediately instituted. The mother
and her little grandson We're the first
to go to the barn and they almost
ran into the dead body swinging by
"a rope. The body had been in the
position between four and five hours.
Young Ream is well and faVOrably
known in the community and his
death is Il shock to relatives and
somewhat i'll or in poor health several
months or at intervals for a longer
period, his complaints were not of a
nature to cause apprehension or un'
easiness and not until recently has
his condition bee the subject of any
concern. Young Ream has been a
miner, and a good oe, all his life. He
was in partnership with one of the
Deaver boys in the operation of a
local mine near Beacon and it had
been understood they were doing very
well.
Deceased is survived by widow
and little son, by father and mother
A brother died not long since.

the governing motive Of the United
States in it's relationships with the
countries of this hemisphere would be
morality, and not expediency."
Il want to take this occasion to say
that the United States will never again
seek another foot of territory on this
continent by conquest" he declared,
In a stirring address on Latin-Ameri.
can relations before the Southern
Commercial congress.
Though Mr. Wilson did not mention
Mexico as the afflicted country, he de.
voted his entire speech to a descrip-
ton Of the degrading influence which
foreign concessionaires had had upon
the internal affairs of some of the
Latin American countries.
With the Mexican situation upper.
most in the presidents mind at this
time, his address was interpreted as
an arraignment of those financial in
fluences which 1t has been charged
have secured In some cases recogni-
ton for the Huerta government.
Come because l want to speak TO
our present and prospective relations
with our neighbors to the south, the
Latin-American states" said Pres:.
dent Wilson in opening his address,
Canal Opens World to South.
THE opening of the isthmus Of
Panama will open the world to the
south" he said, and the Latin Ameri
can states which have been of the
main lines will now be on the main
line"
You hear of concessions to foreign
capital in Latin-America," continued
the president. THAT concessions are
not granted in the United States, that
when capital comes it comes invited
but is not privileged. The Latin
American states have had harder bar
gains driven with them than any other
people in the world"
He said that the United States is
trying to deal with them in terms of
equality and honor and that the state
department Is now trying to deal with
them In a new spirit. The develop
ment Of constitutional liberty in the
world was his dearest aim.
America is Synonym for individual
liberty" he declared. DO not think
that the questions of the day are
mere questions of expediency We will
never condone inequality because 1t is
convenient to do So"

Oskaloosa High won over Fairfield
High Saturday afteroon by the score
of 10 to 9 after one of the hardest
fought games that has been staged on
local gridirOn this season. The To-
Gals went over for their first count
ers in about the first two minutes of
play, after which they became over
confident, thinking that they were
staging a repetition of some of their
former games this year, said over
confidence almost defeating them.
Fairfield Immediately took a brace
and for the greater part of the game
they had the locals in the hole. Fair
field secured their markers in the
second quarter after r. Zeigler went
over the locals goal line for the first
time this season. Fairfield also scor-
ed again in this quarter on safety.
During the third quarter the visitors
had the locals playing a hard uphill
game, but they weakened in the
fourth after Coach Betting sent some
fresh men into the line and by dis
playing a wonderful fighting spirit
in the last few minutes of play the
locals took the ball over the line after
series of smashes and a good gain
on the spread formation. r. Zeigler
was the star of the game for the visi'
tors, making several long runs. 1t is
hard question to state who were
the stare for the locals, in fact the
entire team played good ball in the
last half. The tackling of Strohmeier
was some of the best ever seen on
the local field. Masters, captain OF
the locals, broke into the contest and
although badly crippled he played a
good defensive game. Utterback and
Larimer carried the ball we'll on
