Lose Prestige and Place
for His Stand.

LoNpoN. June l6.---The signing by
President Wilson Of the bill repeating the
clause in the Panama Canal law exempt

by the London papers
The Morning Post in lauding President
Wilson's courage and magnanimlty notes
that the Presidents prestige has been
somewhat dimmed by the prolonged oppo-
sition to his policy and the attacks of his
opponents. The paper adds
1T will b. sad reflection on Amorl-
can democracy II the Presidents single
minded desire to do a large thing should
lead TO his political undoing.'
The Ddi'y MAI expresses the belief that
the people of the United States. who
never lack admiration for honesty and
fcarlcssness. will see another proof that
they have the good fortune to be gov
erned by a great man"
The Daily Chronicle. with similar
tributes TO President Wilson, criticIses the
Senate amendment declaring in effect that
this repeal bill does not mean that tn"
United States has not the right at any
time to exempt its own shipping. Til,

Wilson Explains
Purpose of Flag

Washington, D. c., June 1S.-Wav-
ing his hand toward an American flag
hoisted by a squad of navy bluejack-
cts, President Wilson told a great
crowd assembled before the state, war,
and navy building to celebrate flag
day that, flying over a reunited ma.
ton, this banner for the future was
meant to stand for the just use of
undisputed national power"
"Our spirits as we'll as our states
are now reunited" the president said,
land nobody questions our ability to
push forward our economic affairs up
on lines of unparalleled success and
prosperity.
81 sometimes wonder why men take
this flag and faunt it. II I am re-
spected | do not have to demand re-
spect If | am feared l do not have
to ask for fear. If any power is
known | do not have to proclaim it.

rs it not proud thing to stand
under such an emblem? Would it not
be pitiful thing ever to make apology
and explanation Of anything that we
ever did under the leadership of this
flag carried in the van? Is it not a
solemn responsibility laid upon us to
lay aside buster and assume that
much greater thing, the quietude of
genuine power? So 1t seems to me
that it is my privilege and right as the
temporary representative of a great
nation that does what it pleases with
its own affairs, to say that we please
to do justice and assert the rights of
mankind wherever this flag is un-
furled.'

The Hattiesburg news. (Hattiesburg, Miss.) 1908-1917, 1914-06-18

This flag is meant to stand for the
just use Of undisputed national power.
No nation is ever going to doubt our
power to assert its rights, and we
should lay it to heart that no nation
shall ever henceforth doubt our pur-
pose to put it to the highest uses to
which a great emblem of justice and
government can be put.
1T is henceforth to stand for self
possession, for dignity, for the asser-
tion of the right of one nation to serve
the other nations of the world-an
emblem that will not condescend to
be used for purposes of aggression
and self-aggrandizement; that is too
great to be debased by selfishness;
that has indicated it's right to be
honored by all nations of the world
and feared by none who does right
eousness.

UNITED STATES WELL SUP
PIED WITH SINEWS OF WAR

If war must come, no other nation
could so easily finance one as the
United States. Our wealth is the
greatest, our national debt the small
est and our resources the most remun-
erative.
With eighteen times the Federal
revenue of Mexico, the United States
pays in interest charges annually
only a half more than that revolu-
tion-torn republic. Our national debt
costs only tenth that of Russia each
year, an eighth that of Germany, a
fifth that of England and ninth that
of France.
But Americas wealth producing ca
pacity surpasses all countries. It can
most readily maintain itself within it,
self. It's bonds command the highest
price of those of any nation.
. The per capita wealth of the Unit
d States is three times as large as it
was when the Civil war broke out and
the conutry's population is also three
times greater than it was then. But
during that conflict one Philadelphia
banker alone sold $700,000,000 of gov
ernment donds in five months.
IF necessary, the United States
could today market $1,000,000, 900 a
per cent bonds in week and get Q
premium for all of them.
While every patriotic American
hopes it may not be- necessary to cal
into requisition our country's re
sources for war, still, if duty demands
/ we have the money and we have the
men.-Philadelphia Ledger.

United States Marshal A. B. Gray
and party, prepared for jaunt Of 10
days to McNeil's island, Washington,
took train No this morning, west
bound, says last night s Gazette. Most
of the party will remain at McNei1's
considerably longer than ten days,
but four of them will be back after
helping Phil Blume, Of Winnemucca,
spend his money.
Blume, who is going to tack two
extra stories on his Eldorad0 hotel
when he gets back, wrote to Gray
that he would arrive in Reno a day in
advance to get into trim for the trip
and would be equipped with gatling
gun and an unlimited supply of coin to
spend
While waiting for the morning train
the eight prisoners, several of whom
were equipped with new pearl gray

ed and held reception for friends

were four guards in attendance, in
cluding Marshal Gray, Ray Reese,
Phil Blume and w. G. Wheeler of

REMAINS OF FRED GELS
SHIPPED 10 OHIO HOME

Thursday evening the jury called by
Coroner Dunn, to inquire into the
cause of death of Fred w. Gels, the
cigarmaker found cut to pieces on the
Southern Pacific tracks that morning,
returned a verdict that "deceased
came to his death on May Z, 1914, at
Benning, Humboldt county, Nevada,
by being struck by Southern Pa
cific train
The exact manner in which the un-
fortunate young man met his death
will never be known. Opinion seems
to be about equally divided as to
whether he ran until exhausted and
then fell on the track and was run
over by several trains, or that he
tried to catch freight for ride and
was thrown under. From the condi-
tion of the remains it is evident that
he was run over by number of
trains.
This afternoon the remains were
shipped to relatives at Youngstown,
Ohio, on Southern Pacific No. 6.

MRS GEoIGE wINaFIELD
NOW OUT OF DANGER

Mrs. George Wingfeld, whose con-
dition, following the birth of son
Tuesday morning became serious last
night, is much better today, according
to the physicians in attendance, and
il is believed that she is now out of
danger. For thirty hours her tenn
perature was at or near 104 degrees
and last night a special train was
made up at San Francisco at the re-
quest of Mr.. Wingfeld, to bring to
Reno at the earliest possible moment,
DIR. f. C. Fleichner and DR.. w. Fran
els B. Wakefield, for consultation
with physicians already in attend
ance.
The special, consisting of two cars
and light engine, made the distance
from San Francisco in the record time
OF seven and oneshalf hours, reaching
Reno at s:15 O'Clock this morning.
An automobile was waiting and the
physicians hurried to the Wingfeld
home. There was keen and sympa-
thetic interest in the condition of
the patient and there was general re-
lief and qualification over the news
that Mrs. Wingfeld's condition had
changed for the better about 4 o'clock
this morning. The improvement con-
tinues and it is believed the period of
danger has passed.-Gazette.

U. OF C. CLEf CLUB
next. FRIDAY night

One of the most popular entertain
ing teams in the bay cities Of the
state of California is Maddox and
Patrick, who are at present zen
tour" with the University of Califor-
MIA Glee club. Patrick is a wonder at
the piano and his own rag-time Sc
lections never fail to bring down the
house. His partner, Maddox, has q
repetoire of over a hundred popular
and descriptive songs which he de-
hvers with the aplomb Of profes-
sional of long experience. Both are
extremely well fitted for this sort of
work. They are constantly besieged
by vaudevill managers with flatter-
ing offers but prefer to finish their
college courses.
The 1915 Exposition quartet will
be heard along with this famous duo,
and it will be a close race for first
honors. The work of this quartet has
been phenomenal. The men have work
ed together, on the professional cir
cults and in private for the past three
years, and rightly deserve the hearty
ovations they never fail to receive,
as commendation for their work. All
are juniors in the university aud will
graduate at the time of the exposi-
tion.
These two numbers are second only
to the work of the entire club of
thirty-fve voices that will be heard
at the Nixon opera house ON Friday
evening, the 18th of May, at S:15
n
