The beauty of old china is often de-
stroyed by broken spots which APP
pear on the surface. An effective way
to remove these is, to bury the dish in

remove them than the lighter ones.
This method will not harm the most

THE AMERICAN PEOPLE AND
THE MEXICAN CRISIS

[Springfeld Mass } Republican,
Underlying all the attacks upon the
Wilson administration is the desire to
force the United States to send an army
across the frontier in order that the in
vestments of capitalists, both American
and European, may be safeguarded.
1t is undoubtedly true that as time
passes without a permanent solution,
this element becomes reinforced in vari
Gus ways-by jingoistic fervor for the
protection of our citizens abroad, by par
tisan and personal animosities toward
the Washington administration, and by
the vindictive hope of the administra-
TONS enemies to engulf it i'll trouble.
Yet so long as President Wilson seeks,
to the best of his ability, to maintain in
ternational peace and help Mexico to-
ward a new dawn of prosperity without
blighting her with a military invasion,
he cannot fail to deserve and obtain the
support of the majority of his country
men.

ADOPT AGRICULTURAL
CURRENCY PROPOSAL
House Democrats Amend the
Banking Measure.

Washington, Aug, 26.-An agricul-
tural currency amendment to the ad'
ministration currency bill was adopt
ed by the house Democratic caucus.
After several preliminary skir'
mishes, in which other amendments
were beaten, the caucus, without a
dissenting vote, adopted an amend
ment sponsored by both the insurgent
contingent and the banking and cur
rency committee, to put paper based
on agricultural products on the same
basis as commercial paper for bank
ing purposes. 1t also would extend
the maturity of notes and bills admit
ted to discount under the amendment
to 80 days, instead of originally pro-
posed As days. This action disposed
of the last of the big controversial
issues in the administration currency
bill.
I'VE have won all we contended
for" was the comment of Represen-
tative Neely of Kansas, in charge of
the opposition to the Glass bill.

GANG RULE AND
THE RECALL
[The Public, Chicago. I

AhN AhilNt NhiNakN'
The Impeachment of Cover
nor Sulzer shows the untenRbIe
basis of the opposition 10 the
Recall. Opponents of this
measure have continuously
harped ON the opportunities II
would give to a bOss-cOntrOlIed
gang TO get rid of an honest
OficlaI. Therefore, they said,
impeachment is by far the
better process. but now an
example is given of use of the
power 20 impeach In that un-
desirable way. Tammany had
no trouble In getting seventy
nine plant ASsembIymen TO
vote for Impeachment. IL
would have been far more diff
flcult ander the circumstances
If not actually impossible, TO
get the required number of
signatures to a recall petition.
The difficulties In the way of
securing Senatorial votes for
conviction will not be as great
as would have been I'm the way
of securing popular approval
of a Recall. Moreover, the
GiIing Ofa Recall petition would
not temporarily remove the
threatened official from office
until a popular majority had
SO ordered. Impeachment
does. The possibility of tenn
POrariIy replacing an Indepen-
dent Official with a plant tool
is in itself an inducement to
an organization like Tammany
to start Impeachment proceed
ings, even when these proceed
ings are certain to end in ac-
quIttaI. The State of New
York would have been spared
the disgracefuI proceedings of
the past week had the citizens
held the power of Recall.

capitol grounds. This petition was filed
in the office of the Secretary of State de-
manding that the people have right to
vote on legislation.
Governor Cox has asked the Sec
retary ofState to waive all technical
tiles and count every name that was
honestly signed by persons who knew
what they were signing. The Cow
ernor is convinced that those who are
opposed to the principle of the initia-
tive and referendum are doing all
the dishonest things and tricks pos
sible to make it look ridiculous and
unpopular.
The workmen's compensation law
passed the legislature in both branch
es without single vote against it.
Yet all forms offraud are being used
to put the State to the expense of
voting on it before the law has been
given trial.
1t would seem reasonable, if those
who have doubts about the wisdom
of the new laws, should be willing
to give these laws a Workout and
see whether they are good or bad.

d in the Democratic state platform i'll

If you think you can not earn SIS, we

If you cannot earn 500 a month,

has not been time in the past ten years
when our capable students have had to
wait for employment.
One of the fundamental principles of

Therefore, we are prepared to show you

Senator LaFollette has stated in the
course of the tariff debate that of $500
manufacturers to whom set of questions
had been sent in relation to the effect of
the pending bill on their industries, only
sixty-six had taken the trouble to reply.
Let the standpat alarmists who are pre-
dieting blue ruin and soup houses ex-
plain the apathy of the manufacturers.
If disaster actually threatened them,
would they remain silent? Is that hu-
man nature? The most probable explain
alton is that the manufacturers are too
busy and too cheerful to bother about
long lists of questions. They want the
tariff question settled without obstruction
and delay for the sake of possible cam
paign capital next year.
