1t develops that the chief object of
1inds mission is to urge that the peo-
pie of Mexico be
Those Who Love allowed to hold
Our Flag Uphold bona fide election
Its Principles. under their con-
stitution; an cleo
ton under which each citizen shall be
allowed to vote for his honest choice
without danger of being shot in the
event he votes against the man who is
in the saddle.
The plan is simple and logical and
niarked with the American spirit. Mex
icos trouble comes chiefly from the
lack of a constitutional government.
Save during the. brief term of Madero
that country has had no government
based on the laws and the constitu
ton of Mexico. The Diaz government
was based on bayonets. So is the
Huerta regime. Obviously there will
be revolutions and the accompanying
turmoil at intervals as long as that
plan is followed. 1t puts a premium
on instructions becaus anly by in
surrection may political changes be
brought about. So Messrs Wilson and
Bryan hope to pave the way for peace
by the simple process of bringing
about a genuine election under the
constitution. 1t is a program that is
absolutely sound and cannot be justly
attacked. On that program President
Wilson can look his countrymen and
the whole world in the face and COM
mand approval.
The Portland Oregonian though
does not uphold the administrations
policy. 1t looks on the move as "im-
practical and fraught with danger"
II approves of the idea that strictly
free institutions and high constitu-
tional ideals can flourish only in po-
litically advanced communities" How
people can hope to become politi-
cally advanced without some political
practice is not explained. The argu-
constitutional government because it Is
not used to one is exactly on a par
with the advice that a child should not
try to stand until it has learned to
walk.
A few weeks ago the Oregonian was
bitterly denouncing the I. w. w. for
insults to the American flag and
the I. W. VS. deserved it. But now
the Oregonian shows itself false to the
flag by ridiculing the president for
upholding the great principle that
gives our flag its glory. Between the
treason Of the I. w w and the trea-
son of the SNUG and hypocritical sheet
that upholds the cause of privilege in
the northwest there is small room for
choice

growers.

World:
We have yet to find in Wall street
any but a contemptuously critical at
titude toward Secretary McAdoo's ac-
ton in placing treasury money among
the banks of the South and West for
crop-moving purposes.
1t is said that the banks do not need
this money. But if they do not, they
are not obliged to take 1t.
1t is said that the Wall street banks
had themselves amply provided for
the needs of the interior institutions
in moving the crops But if so, there
is nothing to prevent them going
ahead by making terms more attract
i've to the interior banks than those
of the secretary.
1t is urged again that a lower
money market is being caused which
may invite gold exports, But cheaper
money for autumn activities is an in
Fiction which the country's business,
If not the Wall street banks, can easily
endure. =
No influence has been more urgent
for currency reform than that of Wall
street, but it has nothing save abuse
| for a system of reform which sub
stitutes government control for bank
/ ing control. No influence has been
| louder than this for an elastic cur
rency to meet the varying seasonal
needs of business. But when the
treasury secretary tries to impart some
elasticity in the only way he can with
out letting Wall street collect a COM
mission on the expansion, he is greet
ed as clumsy amateur in finance.
And yet there are those who Won
der why Wall street is unpopular.

PHILOSOPHIC TURN OF MIND
Not Many Would Have Described Mis-
adventure in the Terms This
Boy Used.

AS Miss Easton got into the ele-
vator at a certain big school house
the other morning she saw boy,
whom she was sure was one OF cher
boys" standing In corner. He had
pair of crutches on which he leaned
heavily, and Miss Easton, who knew
she had seen him sound and well only
the day before in one of her classes,
exclaimed in amazement
We'll. we'll, what on earth are you
doing with crutches?"
II met with a slight accident a few
months ago" replied the boy in a
voice She did not recognize, and as
the elevator stopped at that moment
he lifted his hat clumsily and got off
Then she saw that one of his legs
was gone and that he was not one of
her boys.
THE slight accident" explained
the elevator man to the perturbed
teacher, was being run over by a
train, having one of his legs cut off,
his skull fractured and his right hand
badly mashed! d!"-New York Press.

In the cellar. In the meantime, the
price OF potatoes at a market point
went as high as $1.4O per bushel."
We might give an example ourselves.
Take two farmers living on different
roads about eight miles from their
market. Suppose one of them has a
better road than the other and the
man on the good road can haul six
bales OF cotton to town whereas the
other can haul but four Suppose it
takes an entire day to take the cotton
to town, sell 1t and return home. IL
each farmer had twelve bales to sci y,
1t would take the farmer on the go ID
road but two days to haul his pro-
duct to town, while it would take the
other farmer on the poorly worked
road three days. 1T Is seen that the
man on the poor road Is losing a
whole days work OF driver and team,
besides the wear and tear because Of
the extra days work and the wear
and tear because of rougher travel.
This question of improving roads is
a plain matter OF business There is
no question but that money spent
rightly for good roads will be a great
saving.

No Race Suicide Here.

Bob Shell, an old negro from the
upper part of the county doubtless
holds the palm in this section as an
eXemplar of the truths eXpoundcd by
one Theodore Roosevelt on the subject
of race suicide. With sixty seven
years of troubles and trbulations
marked up against him, Bob stands as
the father of thirty two children the
youngest Of whom is now four years
of age. He was married three times,
his last wife still living with him in
his house near Owings Station. He
says that he brought up all Of his chill
drcn as workers and law-abiding citi-
zcns and that. of the twenty seven now
living, none have ever been convicted
Of crime.
