Make EN- Show You.

ssShow me-" That is exactly what
every honest taxpayer in Clearwater
county wants from the county officials.
Make them come right out and publish
every statement or defense. The
truth will stand the light Of day. There
is something wrong when officials, un-
der criticism, sneak around and in
whispers, explain how the Republican
is wrong, and how the officials are
good and pure and innocent. Make
public officials come out in the open.

THE COTTON GRAB.

There can be no question that the
appeal made to the government b.
some Southern members Of Congress
for the extension OF aid to the cotton
planters Of the South at the last ses.
sion will be revived az the present
sitting for the provision OF a special
fund amounting TO s25O.OOO.OOO TO
keep the planters "on their feet" The
intelligence has shown that this pro.
posed charity Is resented among the
selfrespecting financiers and planters.
and that the sentiment aroused In
some sections OF the North IL wholly
misplaced and unwarranted. Il is
mainly the cry OF the politician who
wants 10 make good with such Of his
miserable constituents who are pia.

A VERY THIN STORY

A Mexico City special to a New
York newspaper makes the following
sensational statement. which is a
type OF extravagant Imagination
That Carranza paid $4,000 in
gold TO two United States Sen
ators for their influence in bring
ing about the evacuation of Vera
Cruz is indicated by correspond
ence and records found in the
Mexican National Treasury after Car,
rama and all his troops had fed from
Mexico City" According to investi.
cations made of the papers left by
Carranza. the fact was revealed that
such sum of money had been trans.
mitted by Carranza's order to the
chief of the Carranzista junta at
Washington. IL is said that Carranza
feared that President Wilson would
recede from his announced determi.
nation to evacuate Vera Cruz at the
time set November %. owing to the
threatening attitude OF the Aguas
Calientes convention toward his
forces. and that his representative at
Washington had intimated that IL
would be necessary TO employ finan-
cial stimulus in order that sufficient
pressure should be put on President
Wilson" TO prevent him from counter.
handing his Vera Cruz order.
So far as the story connects the
President in the remotest way with
the matter 1t is utterly ridiculous and
unworthy OF any credence whatever.
II is simply a preposterous conception
of some highly imaginative and un-
scrupulous correspondent. No Sena.
tors names are mentioned. and there
fore we do not believe that any mem.
Der of that body was reached in the
manner intimated. nor that there is a
single member OF the Senate that
could have been influenced by a
money consideration in the manner
stated. II this sum was taken from
the Mexican treasury. the entry made
as to its disposition was to conceal
the real purposes to which II was put.
either for Carranzas personal benefit.
or the junta agents graft.

PRESIDENTS MESSAGE.

The session upon which you are
now entering will be the closing ses.
sion OF the sixty-third Congress. a
Congress. l venture TO say, which will
long be remembered for the great
body Of thoughtful and constructive
work which II has done. in loyal re-
Spouse to the thought and needs OF
the country" That is the exordium
OF the Presidents message delivered
to Congress yesterday. and which Is
plainly misstatement of the facts.
A body that perpetrated such a para.
lying and depressing measure ON
the country as the free trade bill IL
enacted. which. besides stagnating
trade and causing industries to Ian
guish. failed to furnish the necessa.
~ revenue for the current expenses
Of the government. is not likely to be
remembered for thoughtful and con-
structive work" But IL will be re-
membered, and resentfully. too. for
piling ossa upon Pelion, by imposing
a deficiency tax. not war tax" upon
the country OF 100000 900. the re-
quirements for which were lmpera-
tive before a shot was fired across
tAe ocean. This loyal response TO
the thought and needs of the country
Is one of the most ridiculous claims
the administration has ever made, be-
cause its policies and its economic
insists represent only very definite
minority of the thought Of the coun-
try.
The message is scholarly and clear
in construction. but notable only for
the omission of any observations on
the Situation in Mexico and our re-
cent performances in that country on
behalf OF peace. I'VE are at peace
with all the worIdr happily declares
the President. but IL IS only through
luck more than good management. and
the weakness Of the country that we
kept out OF war with Mexico.
The President has mapped out an
unexpectedly short program OF leg
islation for the present session TO
consider. consisting mainly OF meas
ures for the extension of trade with
South American republics. revival OF
our merchant marine through his i'm
possible ship purchasing bill. conserv-
alton of the country's resources. in
suspicious disagreement for the
Philippines, rural credits and ma.
tional economy. which the party is
ever praung about but never prac.
ticing.
Several Democratic leaders have
given assurances OF the ability OF
Congress to complete this program
within the limits OF the short session.
but II Is believed they are heavily
discounting possibilities in predicting
such accomplishment. for there are
some halfbaked propositions OF last
sessions discard that promise delays
and contentious controversies.
