HERE AND NOW =

HERE AND NOW I
= y 4 \ \ \ y y \ = 4 1
(By Ella Wheeler Wilcox)
Here in the heart of this world,
Here in the noise and din,
Here our spirits were hurled
To battle with sorrow and sin;
This is the place and the spot
For knowledge of infinite things,
This is the kingdom where Thought
Can conquer the prowess of Kings.
Wait for no heavenly life,
Seek for no temple alone;
Here in the midst of strife
Know what the sages have known.
Stand not aloof or apart;
Plunge in the thick of the fight;
There is the street and the mart
That is the place to do right.
Not in some cloister or cave,
Not in some kingdom above
Here on this side of the grave,
Here we should labor and love.
So many Gods, so many creeds,
So many paths that wind and vino
While just the art of being wind,
sTis all the sad world needs.

COMING CRISIS
IN MEXICO
DEVELOPMENTS OF NEXT TWO
WEEKS OF TREMENDOUS I'M
PORTANCE.

Washington, July 25.-Alarmlng re-
ports of an approaching crisis in Mexi-
&C have been received here by high
government officials. It was authori-
tatively stated today upon unimpeach-
able authority that the developments
ofpthe coming two weeks are regarded
as fraught with tremendous importance
to the Heuta government.
So delicate is the information they
contain that an intimation of the ad-
vices became known today only with
the stipulation that it was unofficial
ana that it should not be represented
as being the view Of any official oj
the United States government.
Authoritative publication Of the nat
ure Of the advices it was said, probab.
l., would precipitate the very crisis the
dispatches forecast. The means by
which the predicted events were to be
brought to pass or what was to follow
were not limited at in the reports which
SO far have found no reflection IN mill
tary or naval preparations by the
United States.
Meanwhile the administration i:
marking time on the Mexican problem
pending the arrival of Ambassador Viii
son from Mexico City which is expect
ed by Thursday or Friday,
President Wilson finds himself in ths
same state Of doubt as to actual con
ditions in the rebellion-torn republic
as he did when, in the hope ofgettins
at the facts, he summoned the Am
erican ambassador to the capital. HI
realizes that even the Americans scat
tered throughout Mexico, Individually
are unable to get comprehensive view
of the situation in the whole country
their judgment being affected by pure
lily local events. From the Mexica:
capital come reports that have turned
every engagement into federal vic
tory and so far the administration ha
heard absolutely nothing, excep
through the press reports, from ths
constitutional side Of the case.
This has led to an intimation tina
information of reliable character from
that source would be welcomed by th'
administration.

The Date-Month of July, 1914.
Members who participated in the
constitutional convention will be here
as well as many other distinguished
speakers.
Twenty-Five years ago next July the
North Dakota Constitutional conven-
tion met for the formation Of North
Dakota into state. To celebrate the
passing of the quarter century mile
stone in the history of North Dakota
as state the Fargo Commercial club
is planning great celebration that
will be held during July, 1914, the ex-
act dates to be named later.
It is proposed to make this state
event. the most important gathering
that has ever been held in the borders
of the commonwealth A big program
of speaking and other features is to be
arranged and Fargo will be in gala at
tire and expects to welcome thousands
Of visitors for the occasion.
While many of those who formed
the constitutional convention have
passed away there are still large
number in the land of the living and it
is the hope Of those who have the af-
fair in charge, to not only have every
one of the living members Of the con
ecnton present, but also to have a.
short address from each, giving histor-
ical data and the impression of each
individual member of the growth Of
North Dakota, from his particular
viewpoint.
Because of this the coming eelebra
,icn will be highly educational and
data will be gathered concerning the
facts leading up to, and concerning the
convention that will be of the utmost
| Importance. There will be papers that
will tell Of the condition Of the rail,
roads and other transportation facili-
! ties in the early days, papers that will
tell of the educational Facilities, Of law
enforcement, Of the condition of health
and other interesting and important
; facts concerning the state as 1t was
then and showing the development that
has since been made
The meetings will be held in the new
auditorium that is now being erected

most capacity to house the crowds that
will attend. There will undoubtedly
be a great influx of old settlers and
the greatest gathering Of pioneers that
was ever held in the northwest. II is
expected that former citizens of North
Dakota, now in far distant states, will
be attracted back to Fargo to meet old
friends and acquaintances.
Secretary Hardy made the official
announcement of the plans for the
convention this morning and will have
more details to announce in the near
