The executive committee of the Tex
as Press Association has changed the
date of the next annual convention
from May 81, % and % to June is. 10
and 20. This meeting will be held at
Wichita Falls, and the change OF date
was thought advisable on account OF
the too brief interval between the
dates first set and the dates OF the
National Editorial Associations Hous-
ton convention. The western country
will be looking handsome about the
middle of June, and the salubrious
western breezes will be at their best
at the same time. These advantages.
combined with the all-the.year-round
delightfulness of Wichita Falls, will
make the next Texas Press Convention
even a more enjoyable occasion than
it has been heretofore, and 1t has for
thirty years been the enjoyablest an
nual convention in Texas. = State

CHANGING OFFICES
IN COURT HOUSE

Judge Maloney reported today that
several changes in offices IN the court
house are to be made In the near
future, and the plans are as follows:
The county judges office will be
moved across the hall into the Justices
of the peace present office, and the
tax collectors and tax assessors office
will be moved into the office vacated
by the Judge. A fireproof vault is be-
ing built in a small room adjoining the
judges and tax collectors Offices, and
this vault will be for the use of the
collector and Judge. The county school
superintendent will move his office
downstairs into the tax collectors
present office, and the office vacated
by him will be turned over to the JUS
tice of the peace. These plans will be
carried out as soon as possible, and
Judge Maloney thinks the arrange
ments will be much better than before,
especially the school superintendent
being moved downstairs, as 1t saves
the women school teachers from hav-
ing to climb the sairs when they visit
the superintendent Lavatories and
toilets are being installed on the Sec
ond floor for the use OF the county
officials.

SOME WHY
Northwestern National Is Making
Good.

In this issue we give some facts
and figures. direct from a source
that cannot be questioned. Here are
a few reasons why this company is
not only good. but one of the very
best of all old line companies. Rigid
economy enforced by directors and
management; field operations. wes-
tern states only; abnormally low
death rate obtained by best class
physical risks; demand for farm
loans gets splendid net earnings; no
stockholders In company to absorb
any of the earnings which belong
and go to the policyholders; high
class directorate, most efficient man
agement; policies ~unexcelled by any
company; possibilities for future un-
questioned; steady financial gains
and increased dividends. See us and
we will go over these points more in
detail. They are worth your
thought. F. G.. Ball & Son.

SYNOD CONFERENCE
A THREE DAYS SESSION IN MAD.
ISON IN THE INTER- EST OF
THE CHURCH.

The Sioux Falls conference of the
Synod Lutheran church was in ses-
sion in Madison from Tuesday TO
Thursday. Seventeen pastors were
present. Rev. S. M. Ordahl of Sioux
Falls, the president of the confer
ence, presided, and Rev. j. Levorsen
was elected secretary.
Tuesday morning, after the prelim-
mary business had been disposed of,
a paper on the right method of
preaching vas read by Prof. 4. j.
Ordahl Of Sioux Falls. The subject
was discussed afterwards and great
stress was laid on this important part
of the pastors different duties. There
is danger on the one hand of making
it too intellectual. That is, appeal
ing only to the intellect, and on the
other hand to appeal only to the feel
ings, that is a play on their nerves.
One of these extremes is as bad as
the other, and a happy medium must
De found.
Wednesday the new building for
the Lutheran Normal school at Sioux
Falls was discussed. Next fall, the
14th of October, the school will eel
citrate its 25th anniversary at which
time the Synod church in general
will convene there. 1t Is then Prof.
Ordahl's wish to have a respectable
subscription list to present to the
Synod meeting to induce them to
build an administration building
which they are so much in need of.
The afternoon session vas given to
the discussion of the Sioux Falls
hospital. The idea is to erect a
500, 600 Lutheran hospital at Sioux
Falls. A certain doctor has promis-
ed $4,000 TO the hospital under GER
tain conditions. The conference ad-
vised the directors to accept the of
fer in case there should be no valid
reasons against it.
Thursday most of the day wa
given to reading of a paper on the
events leading up to the acceptance
of the Formula of Concord, by Rev.
N. Doe of Baltic, s. ID.
Rev. p. II. Dahl invited the con-
ference to meet at Gayville, s. d.,
in August. The invitation was ac-
cepted with thanks.
The pastors expressed their great
fulness to the pastor and the congre-
cation for the good entertainment
while here. 1t was the intention to
take the pastors out for an auto
mobile tour to see the surrounding
country, but the weather did not per-
nit 1t. We hope it will be better
next time they come.

The SITUATION
FEARS THAT MEDIATION CAN.
NOT ACCOMPLISH THE END
DESIRED.

Washington, May Special: Op-
timism over the Mexican situation is
not so apparent in official circles as
it was, when the Carranza accept
ance of the mediation principle was
| received.
1t is explained that the first step
in the negotiations easily may be the
last. This first step has been the ac-
ceptance by the Huerta government
and the CarranZa government of the
principle of mediation. But each of
these governments waits for the de-
tails which are to be offered. Each
applies its acceptance of 1.-THE prin-
ciple of mediation" to differences
between Mexico and the United
States"
At this point it is feared the hitch
will come.
What the United States desires, in
fact demands, is mediation which
will end the internal dissensions in
Mexico. This, also, is what the me-
diators have proposed to Huerta and
Carranza. But it is noted that each
tersely accepts the principle of medi-
auon only for the settlement of the
differences between Mexico and the
United States and not for the inter
nal affairs of Mexico.
Each, it also is pointed out, de-
clares his government to be the gov
eminent of Mexico. The crisis, there
fore will be reached when the medi-
ators propose, as they are bound to
propose, tina, the internal affairs of
Mexico be included in the matters to
be mediated. If the Mexican fac
tions agree to this, the mediation can
succeed. If they spurn that propos-
| al, the mediation must fail.
The mediators are bound to point
out to the leaders of the Mexican fac
| tons that an intolerable condition
exists in Mexico which all of North
and South America now demand
must stop. That being the real object
of the mediation, anything less than
that will mean the failure of the me.
u%iators. Should they fail, there will
be nothing left for the United States
to do but go ahead with its pending
military movement.
And if it has to do this. the init
nation still is that it will be done in
conjunction with the constitutional
lists.
