PROPER PRINCIPLE AND FUNCTION
 IF GOVERNMENT |S APPREC|AbLE

And as they bound him with throngs Paul said unto the Centurion that stood by: Is it lawful for you to scourge a man that is a Roman and uncondemned?
 When the Centurion heard that he went and told the chief captain, say ing: Take heed what thou doest, for this man is Roman.
 tThen the chief captain came and said unto him: Tell me, art thou a Roman?' He said: Yes 'And the chief answered. With a great sum I obtained this freedom. And Paul said: But was free born.
 "Then straightway they departed from him which should have examined him; and the chief captain also was afraid after he knew that he was a Roman and because he had bound him.
 "To be Roman in those days sure ly meant something more than mere name. The empire protected it's citi- zens," says the Denver Times. In those days Roman power went with the Roman flag. The Roman in strange lands was just as much under the protection of his government as if he was walking the streets of the Eternal City. An injury done one Ro- man was the hurt and injury of all Rome.
 And that such is the proper prin- ciple and function of government is just as appreciable as is the days when Roman power stood for something. Those governments of the present day which look after the interests of their citizens in foreign lands by extending them the same protection afforded to that are respected and whose citizens are rarely molested in any quarter of the globe.
 ''Take heed what thou doest, for this man is a Roman"
 That is the sentiment that should have been impressed upon ohr friends in the neighboring republic at the very first outbreak of trouble in that quar- ter, and if the head of the American government had shown disposition to impress this sentiment upon all ele- ments in Mexico there would not have been a half dozen outrages perpetrated against Americans during the three

A.O.U.W. LODGE ITEMS
 RECALLED BY MEMBER

With the death of Captain c. V. Meeden it is recalled that another member of Yuma Lodge No. 2, of the Ancient Order of United Workmen has passed away, and the second death in the Yuma lodge since Abe Frank died about ten years ago.
 The A.O.U.W. lodge was Yuma's oldest fraternal society, organized in 1885, with Captain Meeden as one of the charter members.
 Capt. Meeden was insured for s2,OOO and had paid dues for 2S years. The A.O.U.W. until three years ago had larger membership than any other fraternal insurance order here, and it very seldom fell below the 100 mark. but, with the reorganization many of the members dropped out and when Yuma lodge, with the Arizona and New Mexico jurisdictions, affiliated with the Fraternal Mystic Cyrcle with supreme offices at Philadelphia, the members were A. Considerable cash was OR hand and each member receiv- ed a dividend of $45.00.
 At the present time there are Al members of old No. in Yuma who are in good standing, and most of them are hale and hearty.
 Joe Redondo is still the financial officer as he has been for many years. Most of the present Yuma members have held down some of the chairs, many of them having been Master Workman.
 It is very probably that at pinch old No. 7 could muster about as many , members on short notice as any lodge in town.

years Mexico has been in a state of travail
 But there was no Caesar at Wash ington at the psychological moment to lay down the Roman predicate. In stead, there was temporizipg policy inaugurated that has continued to this good day, and which is responsible for the death of hundreds of American citizens in Mexico and the destruction of millions of dollars in American property.
 When apparent license is granted by those in authority, the rabble is not slow to take advantage of it and hold high carnival as consequence
 The Mexican government has been powerless to protect Americans in Mexico, for the simple reason that since the beginning of the troubles in Mexico each period of Mexican govern ment existing has been compelled to utilize all it's resources in battling for its own very existence.
 The Taft administration blundered in it's cowardly policy toward Mexico in it's failure to proclaim:
 Take heed what thou doest, for this man is Roman
 The Wilson administration has also blundered for it's failure to make the same proclamation. Men who are not arms-men whose only occupation is in finding sustenance at the point of the sword, have no respect for that policy which proclaims:
 ''This is an American citizen-a man without the protection of his own country. Unless he runs out of Mex ico and abandons all that he has gath cred together there do unto him as thou will"
 But mustard seed diplomacy in the Taft administration has been succeed ed by grape juice diplomacy in the Wilson administration. American cit izens within a short distance of the border where there are thousands of American troops stationed, are hauled around with ropes about their necks until they deliver over the sums of money demanded by their oppressors And not yet has there been heard any proclamation from Washington:
 Take heed what thou doest, for this man is an American"

 BY ''CHUM BOB"

NEW YORK, Nov. 12-Much criti- cism has been made of prominent East ern athletes who refused to join the American team which sails for Aus tralia today from San Francisco, but in addition to being unable to leave business, several of the men who de clined the offer said that they could make more money at home, in spite of the fact that they would like to rep resent America in the Antipodean game.

THE ANNUAL REPORT IF
 HUT SPRINGS IF ARKANSAS

The year just closed has been one of great advancement for the Hot springs of Arkansas, according to the report of the retiring superintendent, recently made to Secretary Lane ''The City of Hot Springs" says the superintendent, ''is a beautiful popula- tion, metropolitan to very high de- gree. It has churches of all denomin- ations and a modern, up-to-date school system. It has splendid water works system, electric lights, and up to-date fire department, telephone sys- tem, metropolitan police system, and a state fair grounds and a race track that is said to be the finest in the United States There are nearly 70 hotels and boarding houses, and the visitor can be accommodated as cheap ly or as expensively as in any other city. The Government maintains a tennis court at Wilmington Lake Park, which is always open to the public, and there is within 8 miles of the city a country club, with magnif- icent 1S-hole golf links. The city is reached by two trunk lines the Rock Island and the Missouri Pacific-Iron Mountain systems. There are 12 pas senger trains daily into the city, and the railroad conditions afforded by these splendid lines can not be sur passed in equipment, train service, and all modern conveniences. I know of no place affording greater attrac- lions by reason of the splendid cn- mate, mountain scenery, and this hot water than is afforded here. Hot Springs is blessed with all the virtues possessed by other resorts, and pos sess these wonderful waters possessed by no other. The temperature here is almost identical with that of South ern California and southern Italy, with the addition of just sufficient change to break the monotony of those sections
 An addenda to the report calls at tention to the fact that the portion of city of Hot Springs destroyed by fire of September 5, 1913, was a residential district that was not much frequented by visitors to the city. Of the 23 bafhhOuCpC Onarotad 11pdor +bo c,,por vision of the Government only 2 were damaged, and of the many hotels in the city of Hot Springs only two were burned. Of the 21 remaining bath houses not one was injured in any way Practically all of the hotels, boarding houses, and places of amuse- ment are being operated as before the fire.

turn to the penitent leaders of the Republican party. All were confident what the result would be.
 "The issue was plain, which party should survive, Republican or Progress sive. It was thought by our stand pat friends and counsellors of office, men like Cummins and Borah, that they could safely rest the issue in the Bay State, with it's glorious traditions, but, as usual, they reckoned without the people.
 Never before has the Republican party been third in Massachusetts. The result was plain, Republicans then dropped from second to third, losing from the total vote. The Progressives leaped from third to second place, in creasing the total vote.
 "The reactionary press took pains to say little regarding Massachusetts but pointed with pride to New Jersey. The issue there is obscure. The Pro gressives elected mayors in Syracuse ana Auburn and New York.
 Taking it all in all, the Progress sives may congratulate themselves over the recent results. There is the same splendid militant spirit among them as last year.

SACRAMENTO, Nov. Ex-Governor Hiram Johnson returned today from the East, where he spent three weeks campaigning for Progressive candi- dates in New Jersey and Massachu- setts, and gave the United Press the following statement regarding the cleo tions:
 "As I said when I left Califorpia three weeks ago, the principal object was to lend such service I could to the brethren in Massachusetts, who were making a gallant fight. Massa- chusetts was the national battle ground. All the old reactionaries and every near Progressive to whom the lure of office was more potent than the triumph of principle were import ed to Massachusetts. The invasion included the infantry of near Progress sives, heavy artillery of Amalgamation- ists, the black flag of troops of reac- tion and special privilege, all singing the one song, that Progressivism was dead and that the Republican party had regained it's sway.
