INDIVIDUAL RESPONSIBILITY.
BY JAMES A. EDcERTON

Eff you take a sword and dror it
An go stick Teller thru
Comment amt to answer for II;
Godll send the bill to you.
Lowell.
In modern days there is much talk OF
e.group sins"
One author illustrates the term In
this way: The farmer gets a small
price for his apples, only a little more
than enough to pay for the picking,
the barrels and the shipping.
Yet in the nearby city his apples
bring high prices, in some cases cents
each.
The margin between the farmers
price and the price to the consumer Is
enormous.
In this jumping up of prices some
one has sinned against society. But
who? 1t is hard to put your finger on
any one individual who is responsible.
The author calls this group sim"
This must be a comfortable doctrine
to sinners.
Let us see if it holds water.
If any crime Is committed some one
person commits it, Others may be
contributory, but If SO each Of them is
equally guilty. The individual is the
wrongdoer.
In the marketing of the apple some
one is grossly oyercharging. Several
may be doing sos in fact, but if so
each Of them is responsible.
Even though we cannot point them
out the fact remains.
Officers of the law are often unable
to find the criminal, but that does not
lessen his responsibility for the crime.
Guilt is personal"
"Godll send the bill to you"
We cannot hide behind any group
or government or corporation or class.
The individual is the unit
Where a wrong is done some person
does 1t.
Whatever the seeming circumstances
surrounding him, 1t was a matter Of
free choice whether he did it or not.
On him rests the burden of guilt.
"Thou art the man.
Plausible sophistry, vague and gilt
tering generalities, furnish no escape.
We must learn the lesson of individ-
ual responsibility.

MEXICO CITY. Nov. l4.--Evidcntly the decision of the United States to tighten up on the purse strings and not let Mexico put over any m"r" financial deals has given those in pow CT here considerable of jolt.
 Despite hte rumors that Huerta can not be located or that he has fled the country it can be positively stated that he is right here in the national palace and that he has not been out of Mexico City.
 There was a conference at the pal ace last night which lasted into the early hours of the morning and at which was discussed the latest and unexpected move of the United States in influencing Europe not to lend Mexico any more money. It is real ized that this will place the admins tration here in very embassassing elimination by the very forces which 1t has relied upon for support. That is the army. It is known that the Mex ican soldiers have no patriotism and only fight for one side or another for what they can get out of it in the way of pay. If Huerta cannot borrow money to pay these soldiers they will turn against him and all question of his elimination from national affairs will be settled. In fact it may be that he will not even be allowed to leave the country but will he arrested and shot by the very men who shouted loudest for him as long as he was the paymaster.

Another letter carrier will be added

it possible to give the entire business
section three deliveries daily and more

dence section, as the result of an in
vestigation conducted this week by
Postoffice Inspector r. H. Barclay and
Postmaster w. T. Cavanaugh.
The exchange probably will be made
within the next 60 days. During the
investigation the inspector re-district
ed the city in preparation for the ad
ditional carrier and this fact is taken
as an indication that this improve.
ment in the service of the local post.
Office is assured.
Business firms on Columbia street

west of it will profit most by the i'm.
provement, as they have been receiv.
ing but two deliveries daily while the
rest Of the business section received
