Frank Clark OcaIa Fourth of
July Grafton was actually printed in
the Congressional Record at the ex-
pense Of the people and the treasury
was not wrecked.-Banner.
There is no danger that the treas
ury will be wrecked as long as states
men like Frank Clark are on the job.
If the treasury was wrecked, there
would be no use in their being con-
gre5smen, so they see to it that it is
in good condition to pay for their ex-
travagance. The expense of this gov
eminent now average a billion dol
lars a year, a third of which could be
saved by honest and wise legislation
There is no danger of the treasury
being wrecked, but many of the PEG,
pie who help pay the taxes to keeI
the ship of state afioat are on the
rocks.

Ambassador Henry L. Wilson, who
has just arrived from Mexico, says
Huerta is all right, the rebels
against his authority are on the
blink, that Mrs. Madero is a liar, and
that it would be impolite, to say the
least. for the United States TO inter-
fere, or even admonish Mexico. We
are afraid that if an American base
ball team went to the city of Mex
leo, to play against the ''Assassin's
Own" which is said to be Huerta' s
favorite nine, if Ambassador Wilson
was present at the game, he would
root for the dagos. The Star advises
Woodrow to give Henry the pink
slip; and, without desiring to be in
the least belligerent, we also think it
would be a good idea to put on extra
men at the ammunition factories.

APPEARANCES OFTEN ILLUsIVE

It is often announced by unthink-
ing people that two and two make
fOur-not once nor an octillion times,
but every time. 1t is however
more positive fact that circumstances
alter cases, not once nor often, but
eyerytime As long as we remain in
the province of the concrete, two and
two. may and sometimes do make
four. When we invade the wide,
shadowy realm of the abstract, two
and two foot up all the way from
one and a half to twenty-three.
A case in point is of a good lady
Overlooking with love for the brother
in black, the victim of Legree and the
klukluX, tried to pull off a stunt
somewhat akin to the hopeless task
Of making pecuniary receptacle out
Of an auricular organ Of a lady swine.
She adopted two little boys of Afro
American descent and street Arab
procIivities. and tried to metamor-
phOse them into two kinks-headed
little Lord Fauntleroys Therein she
tried to add two and two into four.
The two little cOOns were two, and
her good intentions were twins.

quartet would have been named

collars and able to say the Lord s

instinct and stole her pocketbOok.
Now. we Southern folks naturally
expect little niggers brought up on
the streets to steal We don't expect
them to steal an election or a rail
road or a township or a bank sur
Iplus as a white man would do, but if
we can't keep our chickens, water
melons and pOcketbOOks out of their
/ clutches, we generally let them go as
part OF the game. But this good
lady, being from yankeeIand, took
the matter to heart and had the little
darkeys arrested. Before she could
obtain a warrant, however, the Of
ifcers of the law, who couldn't catch
IcO0ns unless they had at least one eat
la day, required her to put up the
: costs. And at the trial, the Judge
who is to the manor born, did no
order the ungrateful little darkeys tt
be hung, or even sent up for life
- whereupon the good lady was much
irritated over the corruption Of oul
: courts
Moral: There is good material il
| most little darkeys, but there are
some ways to bring it out and some
ways to keep it in.
