For sooner or later, any cause right
eous enough to enlist the mothers
of every country and every cline,
will prevail and prevail irresistably.
Even more t~hunderously than the

this procession of women proclaim

Almost every day some London
newspaper prints a dispatch from a
correspondent in France containing
more or less pointed criticism of the
management of the French armies
in the fighting with the Germans. 1t.
has been intimated more than once
that the French left the British force
at a dangerous position and expected
the English to keep in check a great
ly superior force of Germans. Further
it has been published that the Brit

days for French reinforcements that
failed to appear. There can be no
doubt that the British soldiers have
given a splendid account of them
selves. They compose the flower of
the British army, the seasoned, ex-
perienced men. Great Britain alone
of the European powers maiV.ains
a standing army like that in the
United States, the men serving for
long periods and in many instances
until reaching the age of .retiremet.
Thus the men sent to aid France no
doubt have seen more fighting and
had more training than any
other body of soldiers in all Europe.
They We're entitled to the full co..
operation of the French and if it is
rue that they did not receive it,
he fact will certainly be resented by

THE EXAMPLE IN MEXICO. .
III it had been known in advance
that all Europe was to be plunged
into war, President Wilson could
scarcely have made better prepara-
ton for 1t than he did by his atti-
Itude toward Mexico. South Ameri.
can meditation didn't amount to a
hill of beans so far as results were
concerned. But the acceptance of
mediation by the United States was,
as remarked by The Republican at
the time. the sort of an action that
would prove to the world the SINGER
ity of the United States IN ~disayow-|
Ing any territorial covetousness.
Further, it was just the kind OF a
every other country that the Unitedl
States has no war program. that it
is genuinely devoted to the cause
of peace and that 1t seeks the friend-I
illness of every other power in the
1t could not but increase the
respect in which the American re-
public is held the world over.
1t is an occasion now to c~ongrat-
ulate ourselves that this demonstra-
lion was made in advance of the Eu-
war. With a pugnacious and
aggressive president in the White
House, Europe would be regarding
he United States with suspicion and
If any unfortunate incidentl
mould occur to make it appear that
he United States might be partisanI
N Its attitude toward some of the
warning powers, 1t would be magni-
led because of the personality of
he president. By way of illustration
here is the bull dog just because
is a good fighter, every one ex-
lects him to fight. If he growls, it
s considered notice that hostilities
are about to begin. He will never
given credit for any desire he
might have to keep out of encount-
srs. Just So, a warlike president, or
even n known to be a thorough
soing fighter when properly called
INTO battle, would make it more diff
icult to convince Europe that uni
Ter no circumstances would thel
United States be drawn into that
truggle.
But. fortunately, every one knows
hat Wilson is u man of peace. SomeI
me has remarked rather satirically
he never did know a school
who was a fighter. But that
cans just now that a school-teach-

for the United States to make

THE UNWISE CENSORSHIP

There was a time in the his tory of great corporations when they answered the public with the curt reply: We have noth- ing to say." Strangely enough this unwise policy is being followed by the countries at war. Germany gets through a meager 200 words a day by wireless. The remaining dis patches must all come by way of England, since one of the first acts of the war was the cutting of the German cables. England censors not only it's own news, but American editors charge that government with even go- ing to the extent of holding up the news of a German victory for ten days.
 It is said the Associated Press has filed a statement with the English government charaeteriz- ing the censorship as a 'blot on civilization" In the twentieth century the people want the news good or bad; and the resentment in New York against the policy of a number of papers in their eXtravagant and untruthful claims for Allies, IS reflected in

Kansas City Cattle
 and Sheep Prices

Kansas City Stock Yards, Oct. 26 1914. Heavy runs of cat tie at all the markets last week put the situation everywhere in- to the hands of buyers. There was no getting away from the lower prices. Shippers who tried it by forwarding cattle to other markets from here all lost money by the process. Today the run is 24000 head here, only three fourths as many as came in last Monday, and the market is mat erially improved over the close of last week. Killing steers are fully steady today, COWS are strong to 9 higher. and stockers and feeders are 10 to 25 higher, with plenty of buyers for all classes of cattle. Everything points to smaller receipts from now on. and a good market here. Prime natives brought $11 last week. The previous week Nor ris & Company paid SIPS for a car load of fancy steers, highest price ever paid on the market here. These fine cattle were kill ed for the Fred Harvey Dining Car ServIce, and IA of the steers will be exhibited in the scientifi- cally arranged commissary at the new depot. Some of the beef will be served at the banquet celebrating the opening of the new depot this week. the balance in the dining car service. Morris and Company are furnishing the Fred Harvey people $50, 900 worth of choice meat for an exhibit at the new depot. Some far to good short fed Kansas steers brought $8.25 here today, Colorado beef steers around 1, 100 lbs. $6.6O to S6.85, Colo rado feeders $7.00, fair to good range yearllngs and twos $6.25 to $6.75, good to choice up to S7. 50 fancy yearlings and calves $8. co to $8,5O. Ninety loads arrived today from below the ticklone. cteers at $5.25 to $9. 75. COWS $4.5 to $6.9O
 Sheep and lambs arrived to the number of 5000 head to- day, and the market was 10 to higher, top lands S7. 60. Chicago had 50.OOO, and a ten lower market, showing the cell of un- equal distribution. However, the range run is largely over, although Colorado, which state furnished the tops today, and New Mexico will send in a good many range animals yet. Fed stock will be scarce, and the mar ket appears to be approaching a bare spot. which means strong prices here. Best ewes brings $5 to $5. 25, feeding lambs $6 to $6. 90 breeding ewes, $4.75 to $5. 60.

Protection of Wild Life.

Conflict between those persons who
would destroy birds and those who would
protect them is constant, and the cham
pons of wild life in the United States
are alert and vigorous IN their defense of
the federal migratory bird law, which is
under attack in many parts of the coun-
try. The advocates of spring shooting
are getting wide publicity for their opn-
ions, and in California the provisions
of the Flint-Carey law, enacted last
year. are under fire. The game deal
ers and market shooters seem to have

Mexico and the Monroe Doctrine.

| Representative Fess of Ohio said in the
| House yesterday;
| "It has been generally understood that
Mexico hates the Monroe doctrine because
! she hates the american Gag; at least
many Mexicans hate and resent the idea
| of the big brother.
If this is true, Mexico is very migrate
full. Fifty years ago the Monroe doctrine
saved her from exploitation by Euro
pean power for European purposes. Louis
Napoleon was trying to rivet control
through a dummy, an amia BILE Austrian
prince, and had he succeeded in his pur-
pose Mexico would have suffered severely.
The United States defeated the project.
Powerful at the time in a military sense
from having just dishanded a great army
every man of it. together with those
recently in opposition, would have re-
sponded to a call-we were able by assert
ing the Monroe doctrine to save Mexico
from a foreign yoke and ourselves from
an undesirable neighbor Neither the
MeNicans nor the Americans wanted
French rule established in that country.
After the departure of the French and
the execution of the Austrian prince. the
Mexicans had a chance to pull themselves
together for home rule again. Some years
of turbulence followed, but it was. so to
say. turbulence of Mexicans. by Mexicans,
for MeXicans, and in the end Diaz was
developed and gave the country more
than a quarter century of stable and
progressive government. His government,
though republican only in name. was i'm
measuraby superior for Mexico to any
that would have resulted from French
control
But more than that. If there had been
no Monroe doctrine. or if We had not as
serted the doctrine. and the French had
remained in Mexico. their influence would
have been so impaired a few years later
the Mexicais would have been tempted
to rise, and probably would have risen,
against them. No French proxy on Il
throne in Mexico could have sustained
himself after the downfall of Louis Napo-
leon at home. n republic succeeded the
monarchy in France, and the French re-
public would not have attempted support
of a French monarchy in Mexico.
In short time, therefore Mexico would
have been in turmoil again, the natives
arraycd against foreign control. and that
control weakened by the fall of the source
of its strength. Luckily for the French,
for the MeNicans. and for ourselves.
there was Monroe doctrine. we asserted
ii. and our assertion prevailed. We
nipred in the bud what in full flower
might have cost us heavily to destroy,
and We saved the Mexicans a good deal
of humiliation.
The whole western hemisphere has
prohted by the Monroe doctrine. This A.
Is. G. mediation is in a way an example.
For Argentina, Brazil and Chile have at
taiNed their gratifying growth under the
aegis of the warning that European polit-
ical power must not be extended to this

He was only lad not long ago,
With his buoyant step and his cheeks
aglow
He was only lad in the mood for play
As the sunshine gilded holiday.
But he thrills your gaze with a sense OF
pride
AS he holds himself to a martial stride,
And we pause as we watch the marching
clan.
Farewell to the boy, We salute the man
1t is only for pride; it is not for fear
That our eyes grow dim with misty
tear
AS the earnest faces. alert and fine,
Reflect grim thoughts of the battle line.
We think of the sorrows that we may
bear,
And our hearts beat swift as we watch
him there.
But we dare not question his chosen plan
We love the lad We salute the man.
