SENATOR KERN
OPPOSES MEMORIAL.

Senator John w. Kern, of Indiana
candidate for vice-president on the
Democratic ticket four years ago, al
a banquet given in Washington last
night by the members of the De-
partment of the Potomac, G. A. r.
to Judge Alfred B. Beers, of Bridge
port, Conn.,, commander-in-chief OF
the Grand Army, voiced opposition
to any memorial road between Wash
ington and Richmond, with monn.
ment to a Confederate leader, unit
every veteran was free from want
and the nations debt paid. He said:
"The time has not arrived for tn:
building of the highway from Wash
ington to Richmond, wit hthe monu-
ment to a great Confederate leader
at the other end. Never with my con-
sent will that work be done until ev-
cry Union veteran is free from want
and the nations debt paid"
Senator Kern is the would-5e sue
cessor of Senator Martin for the po-
sition of leadership of the SsnaEe. His
words are significant. Should the
country wait until the national debt
shall have been paid for the building
of the memorial road, its construc-
ton will be synchronous with the day
of judgment.
Senator Kern is successor Of
Morton who figured conspicuously
in reconstruction days. He, too, was
from Indiana.
The movement for the ccnstruc-
ton of the peace memorial shoulo
appeal to all who are at this day
rejoicing over a reunited county.
The Potomac was the dividing line
in 1861, and the statute Of hero
of the north and one of the south at
each approach to tn eroad is a hap
py conception, which however fails
to appeal to a man who would be Q
leader of Democracy in the highest
branch of Congress.

LADIES URGE THE
MEMORIAL BRIDGE.

The presence of a number of we'll
known ladies of Alexandria at the
meeting this morning in Washington
between the officers of the Mt. Vernon
Avenue Association and the confer
ence committee of the house on the
public buildings bill, to which the
memorial bridge appropriation is at
tached, as an amendment, argues we'll
for the ultimate building fthe bridge.
Especially is this true when it is
known that all of the ladies are men,
bers of the Daughters of the American
Revolution and Mrs. William A. Smoot
who was the speaker for the Associa-
ton occupies high position in its
councils. There is nothing that the
Daughters of the American Of the
American Revolution cannot accom-
plish when they set to
work the 10000 distinguished
women which compose its ranks, and
if they become thoroughly imbued
with the idea that the Mt. Vernon Az
enue must be built and along with it
the Memorial bridge from Washing
ton to Arlington, it is only question
of few years before the work will be
accomplished.
Mrs. Smoot made graceful and
clear presentation of the facts to the
three congressman comprising the
house conferees this morning. She
stated the position of the Daughters
of the Revolution in reference to the
avenue and bridge and said that every
year their interest in the two pro-
jects was increasing

AMBASSADOR WILSON
A DISAPPOINTMENT.

The impression is being gradually
forced Upon the American people that
Ambassador Wilson, representing
this country in these CRITICAL times is
not measuring up to the standard re-
CURED for man in his position. There
has been little TO criticise in his az
tons because he has done practically
nothing in the past two years, since
trouble arose in that country. But
during the last few days there have
been several little things crop ont
which indicate that Ambassador Will
son is too anxious TO put Mexico III
a more favorable light than it de-
serves. His hurried assurance yester-
day that the entire country is peace
full and that there was no higher up
plot behind the assassination Of Ny
dero and Suarez looks like an attemp.
on his part to prejudice public opinion
in this country and forstali the de-
velpoment of the real facts in the
case.
Ne arc not prepared to go as far
as the Washington Times which de-
clares that Wilson sees Mexico
through the eyes of the old regime OF
Porfiro Diaz and that he has been in
capable of understanding what Madero
and the Madcro movement were about

Must we always be behind the times
in Alexandria? Shall we never
awaken 10 the fact that this is the
year 1913 instead of 1873? When the
whole world around us. is leglsiatlng

an element that would drive them
from the town, an element that pre-
fers grass and trees to children.
Other cities are spending thous-
ards on recreation centers and play
grounds. They are using their schoo!
houses as social centers, outside OF
school hours, and providing good
lectures for their children.
What is Alexandria doing for her
children? In the matter of schools
we are progressing, withou; doubt,
but children must have play as well
as study. We are not ready yet to
direct their play centers, but mean.

made some time ago to prevent skat"

such an cutlery was raised agalns;
the attempt, that the subject is not

Are not children as valuable 20 this

FARMER BROWN.
Up from the farm came old man
Brown
On his regular monthly trip to town.
Ten long miles, when the roads are
rough,
Makes Journey wee bit tough,
But devil a bit the old man cared,
The rougher the weather the better
he Jared,
And he had to come to town TO puy
The stuff that the old farm couldn't
supply.
He was up and at work before the sun
Arose to find his chores ali done.
He had fed his stock and hitched up q
pair,
The sorrel colt and the old bay mare.
Then he slapped the lines over Jim and
Kate.
And started out through the garden
gate.
He buttoned his coat up round his
chin
And carefully tucked his whiskers in
When he stopped his team at the mar
ket place,
Rudy and red was the old mans
face.
He put on his specs with sort OF
sigh
And looked at his list of things to
buy,
Yarn and muslin and calico,
Blankets and oil and a grubb.ng- hoe,
Salts and sugar and banjo strings
And a half-a dozen Of women's I'll -ngs.
Some wire fencing, single-tree,
A can of paint and coffee and te2,
A book for Sally, shawl for Ma
And plug of tobacco for son-iE-iaW,
And, when his task was most CON-
plete,
He stopped at place on the M rket
street
To add to his list (now please con:
frown)
A Jug of liquor for old man Brown.
Then he stood and watched the i.aSs-

Of women going to and fro,
As fine one passed he'd wag his head
And smile, for he liked thorc Ugh

they would pour their wealth into
those marvelously fertile islands, de-
velop their unlimited resources and
SO enrich the people that the latter
would themselves repel any suggestion

FILIPINO FREEDOM

60 PER CENT IGNORANT
nj O h a m m e dan Fanatics
Would Butcher Christian
Races, Says Speaker.

MOHONK LAKE, N. Y, Oct. "a
The United States should not grant
complete independence to the Philip
pines for at least twenty-five years,
This is the opinion expressed here by
Judge Arthur F. Odlin, of Florida, who,
for six years, was Judge of the court
of first instance at Manila, and who
is attending the Lake Mohonk confer
ence, which is to take up the problem
of Philippine independence.
81 have a firm confidence in the flu
ture upliftment of the Filipinos," said
he, always provided that the United
States government will not abandon
them to the small group Of 'politicos'
who are doing all the shouting for in
dependence"
Judge Odlin held that independence
was a bane and not a blessing, and in
support Of this cited the fact that the
southern part of the archipelago is in
habited exclusively by Mohammedan
fanatics who are taught from the era
die to kill Christians, whether they
be white. black or brown.
Rates 1t Crime.
To turn the Christian portion of the
islands over to the tender mercies of
these savage fanatics, said he, would
be one of the national crimes of his
tory. In furtherance of his argument
the speaker pointed out that less than
two per cent of the adult inhabitants
of the islands, even among the most
enlightened Christian communities,
can even read Spanish, to say nothing
of English; that they have not the
slightest idea of the meaning of the
words independence" or ASSEMBLY"
In every community, said the speaker,
there are few half-educated men who
pose as leaders. These are the "Polit-
1cos." who are ignorant, selfish and
self-seeking, who in no sense repre-
sent the wishes or opinion of the peo-
pie.
Judge Odlin deprecated the govern
ment's latest experiment in its Philip
pine policy, that of creating a native
majority on the commission. He said
it was dangerous and ill-advised ex-
pertinent and would work injuriously
against the natives themselves.

CORN To Be HIGH
ALL REPORTS SAY
Other Sections of Country
Say Drouths Have Caused
Small Yield.

There is every indication that oats
and corn will bring high prices this
year from the reports from other parts
of the country to the effect that the
corn and oats crops suffered from
droughts and the yield will be small.
The crops in this immediate vicinity,
however. are an exception and the
yield here will be trifle larger than
the average.
A few dealers believe that 81 will be
paid for corn before the end of the
year. The price now generally paid for
corn is about rs cents although 1t runs
lower than that in many cases. If the
price boosts to a dollar, it will be the
record price for all times.
Oats are now quoted high at 40
cents but they are expected to bring
60 later when the demand for feed be-
comes greater.
The scarcity for corn will be felt
most by the stock raisers. They are

Amazingly Low Price

After seeing it, you will marvel at the
price, as does every cabinet maker. Yet the
explanation is simple. Four thousand agents
take the output months ahead-selling ex-
pense saved. The factory runs all year on one
product-factory overhead cost saved. The
standard low price is quoted all over America
by the Hoosier Company to give you full
benefit of the saving. And you get this low
price on paving a single dollar now.
