Probably Oldest Name.

II is quite wrong to assume that
the name Smith is derived from the
fact that the original bearers were
workers in metal. In reality, Smith
is very old name, far more ancient
than Anglo-Saxon. The Oldest known
bearers of the name were brewers,
and it was In use many thousands of

times, accounts were kept with tai

such as were used by the Egyptians,
Chinese and Mexicans. The Chinese
have never advanced beyond the sym

The Last Resort

President Wilson is not making
war upon Mexico. He Is not even
making war upon the dictator In
Mexico. Those who assume that the
constitutional President of the
United States in his controversy
with the unconstitutional President
OF Mexico is acting or Is likely to act
arbitrarily. and without the sanction
of law, are in error.
Presidents may prepare conditions
that invite hosulities. Military
commanders may involve themselves
in situations that lead inevitably 70
conflict. Even members OF the dip
lomatic corps may engineer a crisis
that must be followed by resort TO
arms. But there Is nothing resem-
bling these expedients In the rela-
tions existing between the United
States and Mexico.
The President of the United States
is working for peace not only be-
tween two neighboring republics, but
among the people Of Mexico them
selves. He Is not an aggressor. His
motives are questioned only by those
beyond the Rio Grande who by crime
and chance find themselves in a po-
sition where they may defy their own
laws and the opinion OF mankind.
He is not arranging for war. He Is
not urging a conquest. He Is pleading
| for peace and justice.
Considering the gravity OF the
crisis that now seems near at hand,
it IL well for the American people to
bear these facts in mind. IL the
problem passes beyond the power
of the President reasonably exer-
cised, ii will cease to be question
between him and Huerta or between
his agents and Huerta's agents. Its
solution will be presented to the
representatives OF the people of the
United States In Congress assembied,
by whom final judgment must be
al Of the Presidents
aims and acts will thus be subject
to review.
To make war upon Mexico for any
cause the sanction OF Congress is
constitutionally necessary. Before
that august body, the merits Of the
case must be pleaded. BY its de-
cision the policy of the Nation must
be determined. Happily for all con-
cerned. the Chief Magistrate who
will address 1t in such a contingency
Is known throughout the world as
man with no dubious entanglements.
There will be no war with Mex
leo unless the American people And
in existing conditions a righteous
cause for war.--New York World.

All freight rates are SO calculated

goods which need low rate get It..
The goods which can pay high rate

The government should back up
and start over again on Panama tolls.
We are now steering right into the
middle OF bad muddle In which we
shall be In the wrong. We. should
make the tolls according to the value
of the things carried. Hay. crushed
rock. coal and lumber should pass
through at a toll very much below
$l.25. Oranges. lemons and fruits
should pay more. Silk still more.
Twenty passengers weighing ton
could easily pay 500. A ship with NO
cargo should go through free, In the
interests Of the canal. II She 10 CON-

These are the principles on which

It would make the canal q paying
