THE SAME PRESIDENT WHO
SNUBBED THE Old SOLDIERS
AT GETTYSBURG!

Dear Mr.. Watson: President Will
son came through our town last
night at 500 o'clock, and 1000 peo-
pie, most of whom had never seen a
President, met his train at the depot
and yelled themselves hoarse for a
sight, smile and a bow, but they got
neither. Give us an editorial on such
cold bloodedness. These people
didn't expect speech, but they
carried their wives and child
rem just for a sight of the President,
yet they couldn't get him out of his
den. His conduct seems to us mighty
cold. What do you think of it? And
Oblige, Yours very truly,
w. B. MARTIN.

Comment.
That's Wilson, AL over. He's as
cold as Grenland's icy mountains.
At the great Gettysburg reunion
this year, he wouldn't even stop to
shake hands with the daughter of
General Meade, who was standing
within ten feet of him! T. e. w.

THE COUNTY DRY"
Railroads Restrained From Ship.
ping Liquor.

Kirksville, Mo-, June IT,
Prosecuting Attorney Weatherby
today obtained a temporary in
junction restraining the Wabash
Railroad from shipping liquor in
to Adair county. Similar action
was obtained against the Q. o.
and X. C. Railroad, so that Adair
county is dry.
The injunctions were granted
by the Adair County Court, which
recently refused to license pool
halls on the ground that they
caused immoral associations for
young men. This action has been
upheld in Circuit Court. Circuit
Judge Stewart will be in Kinks
vile June 81, and the injunctions
will be argued at that time.
While the temporary injunc-
ton will prevent the railroads
from bringing in intoxicants in
any quantity, Prosecuting At
torney Weatherby expects that,
even if his point holds, the in
junction will be so modified Mat
small quantities consigned to in
dividuals may be shipped into the
county for private consumers. The
prosecutor action is the\frst of
the kind ever attempted in Mis-
souri,, and if it holds will mean
similar action in most of the
scores of dry-counties of the state.

WE'D. MAY 28, 1913.

A few years ago when Russia
and Japan were waring over the
property of other people the over
whelming sentiment of Ameri-
cans gave wonderful impetus to
the success Of Japan. 1t was
hard to find sympathizer for
Russia in this section and judg-
ing from published reports such
conditions prevailed throughout
the country. The victory Of Japan.
was largely due to the support
given by the people of this coun-
try and their victories as an
nounced were received wi t h
hearty approval. Then as now
we never took stock in their VIC
tories, their purposes or ambi-
tions and believed, without a
doubt, that the time was in the
near future when their greed of
power and extension of COM
merce would give our country
serious trouble. Spurred on to
greater attainmentS through
triumph over Russia, fired with
an averice commensurate with
their greed for power and pres
tige, we are now confronted with
their protest over the Alien land
bill just passed by the Legisla-
ture of California. 1t will be re-
membered that Mr.. Roosevelt
plead with California to keep
within the demands of Japan
while he was President. it will
also be recalled to mind that Mr..
Taft likewise sought to live with
in the desire of the same people
and now President Wilson seeks
{ keep peace with h m
b y ask in g the sovereign
people of our western coast t o
stay legislation they deem es-
to the welfare Of the |
State. It appears that the |
plucky little Japs," as they were
once denominated by their num-
erous sympathizers, have be- |
come the aggressive little Japs |
that now seek to dictate to this |
country and to give US serious
trouble if We fail to yield. So |
far as we are able to see the
real situation California is clearly
within. her rights and for self
preservation must pursue the
course marked out. 1t may bring
trouble between this Government
and Japan, but it seems that the
time has come when foreign die
tation is 40 longer to thwart the
will and best interest of our
western coast states where pres
ent conditions and tendencies
force those people to protect pos
terity against the encroachments
of undesirable orientals who are
fast menacing the peace and hap
piness of that section. Governor
johnson, in a concise statement,
presents his reasons for signing
the bill and it is strong to the
superlative degree. Gov. John
son shows clearly that he does
not desire to precipitate trouble
between this government and
Japan, but he also shows that he
will not bow to the dictates of
Japan. His position can not fail
to meet the hearty approval of
all who believe in protecting the
people of this country against I'M
desirable foreigners.

 No difficulty is anticipated in hay ing President Huerta issue the deer the bankers deeming this the only means of maintaining in circulation 4 sufficient amount of the medium of exchange
 The management of the Central Bank exhausted the reserve deposi fund of only three more state banks today by adroit delay in paying and by refusal to accept more than 20 per cent of the bills offered for redemp- ton.

 Although the Central Bank s dltiF cuIties do not concern directly any other bank, yet there were heaVy withdrawals of deposits from othe1 banks
