to anything the administration may
have done.
When President Wilson first took
hold OF the proposition it was gener.
ally asserted that an ultimatum was
to be given Huerta and that If he
failed to abdicate and to eliminate
himself from public affairs in Mexico
that drastic measures would be taken
by the United States government to
discipline him and force his retire
ment from public office, but when an
attempt in this direction was made
and the ultimatum issued Huerta de
fed the order of President Wilson and
proceeded to add to his authority as
president and became the practical
dictator Of public affairs.
Huerta is stronger in the affections
of the people of Mexico than he was
nine months ago, and before the ultima
tum of President Wilson was issued,
but in order to run the government, it
must have financial support and this
is denied Huerta. He has neither the
money nor the natural recOurces to
oner to raise money and consequently
he is discredited and weakened and
in addition to this the loss which his
generals have sustained and espec-
tally in the northern part of Mexico
has resulted in largely destroying his
prestage.
We believe it will be a fortunate
thing for Mexico if Huerta should vol
unfairly or involuntarily be removed
from the position which he now holds,
and that in his pace should be Sc
lected man on whom the people can
unite. If something of this kind is
not done the revolution in Mexico will
continue indefinitely and until an
archy prevails 1t is most unfortunate
for that country to have riot and blood
shed extending over period of years
such as has prevailed since the reign |
Of Diaz, when if a stable government
could now be maintained prosperity |
and good order would certainly follow

THE SUFFRAGE MOVEMENT.

1t is remarkable how much benefit
some statesmen can see in universal
suffrage, and it is quite as remarkable
how much injury to the body polite
some may see in case suffrage is grant
ed to women. We believe there is
little excuse for the agitation which
is going on in favor and against this
movement. Just now the tide in the
southern portion of the country is
running against this movement and
where it is supposed that public senti-
ment would compel favorable senti-
ment on the part of the legislatures in
the south manifest GOODNESS toward
the proposition is shown.
We have never been impressed with
the thought that the adoption of wo-
man suffrage would create any partic-
ular change in the affairs of the
country and we do not now believe
that such will be the case. In the
pertinent has been tried, no particular
refCcms seem to have been worked
out.
We are not approving or condemning
wotuan suffrage because we do not
thiul i would produce very much of
chance One thing is evident, and that
is 5t,t a large portion of women do
not care to exercise the right of suf-
frage but those who do wish the priv
legs af voting are so anxious to try
the experiment that they are appar
antiy ;nconsolable without it. One
thing should be born in mind by both
men sad women and that is that to
excercise the right of suffrage is to
assilrne a great responsibility.
We fear. that the obligations created
by the right to vote has not always
beef appreciated by those who have
exercise the right and if when women
cc,ne TO vote the importance of the OBJ
ligstiaa is not appreciated there will
be littie to be gained by the change

While this is the title of the lesson,
it is really one on prayer and it's an
swer. 1t is therefore of vital import
ance to every man and woman in the
world. Christians are particularly in
terested, for to them prayer is a most
essential part of their lives. The his
tory of the life of Jesus while on earth
shows that although He was the Son
of God, yet He prayed to God very Of
ten; even agonized in prayer as in the
garden just before His death. The
great lesson thus for us is that if
Jesus felt the need of prayer, we GER
tainly should.
The lesson verses open with the
statement that as Jesus was praying
one day, His disciples made request,
Lord, teach us to pray" Then Jesus
gave to them that priceless gem of
the bible, "The Lords Prayer" which
has been repeated from millions of
lips and hearts, and will be the Ian
guage of request to God so long as the
world lasts. So it comes about that
