VILLA POPULAR
IN MEXICO
Confidence Growing in His Ability
As a Leader

Minneapolis Journal: The s'tua-
ton in Mexico begins to take form.
The growing confidence in Francis
co Villa as a strong leader of the
people, in spite of his cd record as
a bandit, his lack of education and
of training in public affairs, begins
to be confirmed.
Brigandage is sometimes only an
other name for revolution. Villa
has always shown ability as a soldier
More and more he shows prudence
and integrity as a citizen, qualities
that are vital in the leadership the
people of Mexico need so sorelv.
Villas opposition to Carranza
turns out to be largely want of con
hdence in Carranza's power to full
fill the pledges of the Constitutional
lists to the people Of Mexico. These
pledges of individual land ownership
and a growing share in the govern.
ment have been thwarted, after ~e-
volutions that were apparently sue
cessful, sometimes by class author.
itv and intrigue dominating a weak
leader, sometimes by counter -revoiu-
ton.
Villa has been resolute to avert
both dangers, Carranza has acquiesc-
ed, the provisional Convention has
supported them and proposes for
Provisional President its chairman.
Villareal, a strong soldier, with some
experience in civil government as
| Governor Of a Mexican State. The
Constitutional generals have
united in his support.
Under the coming Provisional
Government, the Army will have
power to maintain peace and order,
and respect for the opinion of the
world should secure a free express
sion and fair satisfaction of the will
of the people.
If C~arranza is a candidate for per-
manent President, his policy, wheth-
er his own or imposed. will be de-
clared by his support, and the OPP
position will have a free field. For
the first time since Juarez, the Mex
lean people can choose their own
Government. The helpful part the
United States has taken in this work
will be known better to history than
it is now.

SUFFRAGE COLUMN
Petition Gets 900 Signers
By SUFFRAGE COMMITTEE

The ladies of Hand County work
ing for the equal suffrage circulated
a petition to be signed by the wom-
en- asking the men to vote yes on
the proposed constitutional amend
ment granting the right of suffrage
to the women, to test the oft repeat
ed assertion of the opponents of the
measure, that women do not want
to vote. The petition is now made
public with the signatures of 69O
women attached, being a majority
of all of the women of the county,
notwithstanding that in eleven
townships the petition was not cir
culated; and a copy of the petition
is being mailed to each voter in the
county. Those in charge of the
petition say that it vas signed glad.
ly by all of the women to whom it
was presented, with the exception of
a very few. In the city of Miller a
very thorough canvas was made,
with the result that the petition re-
ceiyed 1913 signatures, only l6 to
whom it was presented refusing to
sign.

Glen NJ. Waters, uativ4 son of
Hand county. is the nominee Of the
Republican party for state senator.
An energetic, f~orceful young man,
he will take to the office of senator
an ability that will be of great bene-
fit to the people of this county. He
has spent his life among the people
of this locality. He knows almost
every man, women and child in the
county and knows their wants and
desires. He will make an ideal sem
ator. 1t is conceded by all that the
next legislature will be overwhelm-
ingly republican. 1t that is so, what
will it profit the people of Hand
county to send a man belonging to
n other than the republican party,
to the legislature? SO far as re-
suits are concerned, this county
would be wholly unrepresented.
John R. Spiers, the republican
nominee for representative in the
legislature, is a prosperous farmer
of Midland township, who has made
good at farming. He has served this
county in the legislature for one
term with credit to himself ard his
county, He is asking to be returned
for a second term. He is entitled to
it and will receive it. A vote for
the democratic candidate will be a
vote wasted. A democrat in a re-
publican legislature would be of
little use to the voters of Hand
county.
A. r. Hannum, candidate for
county treasurer. is one of the
pioneers. of Gilbert twp. One of
the best known and certainly one of
the most popular farmers in the
county, he appeals to all classes of
voters as the proper man to handle
the money of this county. He has
made a success of farming and
handling his own business, and he
will moke a success of the county's
business.
Henry Erb, republican nominee
for sheriff of Hand comfy, is known
and liked by every man, woman and
child in this county. He has demon
strated his ability to handle the try.

way that has commended him to the

WAR SITUATION
is UNCHANGED
Struggle for Possession of Bel
GUM Coast Still Continues

London, Oct. 26. The cutting
of the dykes in the low country
southeast of Dixmunde flooded out
a large German force, says the Sun
day Observers correspondent in
France. Some estimates place the
German losses there at 5000 drown
ed besides 80, 1000 killed and wound
ed. This may give some hint, the
dispatch adds, as to what is meant
when it is declared that the fighting
N this region Is the most desperate
of the entire val thus far.
The continuation of the great
battle which has been in progress
ever since the Germans essayed their
advance on the coast toward the
French seaport is reported in the
official dispatches and apparently the
fire Of the opposing forces is becom-
ing more desperate than ever.
Germany is said to have sent many
thousands of reinfoscements to aid
the right wing in forcing its way
through what is, from a strategic
viewpoint, the most important piece
of territory in northern Belgium.
But the Belgiums are fighting hard
and there is no doubt that French
achievements and possibly British
have been brought up to aid the
allied armies. The latest official
communication declares all attacks
of the Germans from the North Sea
to the south of Arras have been re-
pulsed, which is a rather more op-
tinistic view fro the French stand
point than that expressed in an ear
lier announcement to the effect that
the Germans had made Roadway at
certain points
In addition the French have occu-
pied the more important position Of
MeIzicourt, which commands the
road leading from harnesses,
around which there are strong
German forces, to the valley Of the
Aisne.
British and French warships con-
tinue to pour shells into the German
ranks and the Germans are guarding
points along the coast in order to be
ready for a possible British landing.
A German submarine has been
sunk off the Dutch coast by the
British DESTROYER Badger. The Of
fcIal announcement Of this incident
gives no details, but says the Bad
gers bow was damaged when she
rammed the submarine, which is be-
lleved to have been attempting a
torpedo attack.
Berlin officially reports that Ger
mar forces have succeeded in cross
ing the User canal. where for several
days past the Belgians had been Of
fering strong opposition. Berlin
also reports that German troops are
slowly advancing east of Ypres and
southeast of Lille. There has been
very I've fighting for a long time
in this vicinity.
In the eastern theatre of war,
Russia, according to the official state
ment eminating from Petrograd, is
still pressing hard upon the armies
of Austria and Germany, which are
reported to be in retreat.

THE CONFESSIONS OF A WIFE
AS A WOMAN THINKS


to lead me into temptation. {
l said something of this to Dick
when he came home last night, of
course not mentioning Kitty, and he
looked perfectly Mortified. He SEEM
ed to feel that in some way had
stopped from that pedestal on which,
as his wife, l am supposed to stand,
by even thinking that by any COM
bination of circumstances l could
conceive of temptation coming to
me. Men seem to have all sorts of;
dead ideas and IifeIess old beliefs on
how certain things change the char
acter of a woman in the twinkling of
an eye, and, no matter how hard you
try to show them that you are the
same kind of a human being that.
they are, they still persist that always
to them you shall be something en-
tirely different
Since our marriage Dick has been
changing his idea of me. During that
wonderful three months was the
woman to be desired" Now l am
"his most priced possession" And as
such he guards me most jealously.I
It annoys him when l show any of,
those human qualities which made
him fall in love with me. I
Oh! Dick, if could only make youI
understand that am no better than
any other woman; that have thet
same belittling insincerities which,
are the heritage of all women in thist
human world; if 1 could make you
understand this and you would takef
me off of the pedestal where youI
have placed your most priced pos
session" and make me your confidants
and chum as well as your wife, mott
only 1, dear, but you would be in-l
measurably happier. .- ,..

One thing which Kitty Malram said
keeps coming up before me: -
"You talk like an interrupted wo-
man." .'..
She struck a note of truth and it
has made me humble. ..
wonder if conditions had been
different-if, for instance, 1 had not
met Dick until after he had married
and become estranged from Eleanor
Fairlow if would have resisted him
and his cyclonic lovemaking?
Perhaps it is because man has al
ways known the strength of tempta-
ton that he has tried to keep his
women "unspotted from the world"
And yet-which one of US can claim
virtue if it has not been put to test?
l want to be strong, and staunch,
and true. want to feel that under
any and all circumstances will do
the right thing. But is the right thing
always the conventional thing?
Is it heresy to wonder if poor Kitty
will gain anything by putting Love
out of her heart?
You see, little book, according to
the worlds decree, it is Kitty who
must do this. Her world would treat
her as criminal otherwise, and, with
its thumbs turned down, send her to
that awful prison called ostracism-
while for that good fellow, Bill Ten
ney," as Dick calls him, there would
be no such punishment, only perhaps
a sly jest or two among his cronies
and a hope on the part of his friends
"that Bill will soon get over his fool
ishness."
Already her world, which is the lit
tie coterie of men who know her,
have passed upon Kitty, and their
judgment was voiced by Dick when
he told me the other night to "cut
her out" and all the interrupted wo-
men" will probably follow this lead.
