A NATION

The perversity of the Mexican factions. which cen to be happy only
when they are flying at each others threats, leads many good people to
despair that the country will W be at complete peace. History shows,
however, that concord and unity are attanaOle ut of the most chaotic
themselves, got together to end Turkish oppression, and accomplished
their purpose. Then they fell to fighting each other again., much as
the Mexican revoluionists ire doing after oustng Huerta. But
now we see the Balkan states again united against their old foe, and
the wranglng Mexican Consttutionansts have o nar as much to tor-
get and forgive as SerWa, Greece and Bulgaria had to put behind them
to again act in harmony.
But we don't have to go to the other side of the world to find
heroic examples paraneing the Mexican situation. After eight years
Of heroic struggle and sacrifice, the American colonies in 1888 achieved
less boon they promptly fell to pickering among themselves and for
years 1t seemed is though the fruits of their united victory were to be
thrown away But, after six years of discussion, dissension and almost
dissolution, the United States government was established. Yet, not
until three-quarters of a century had passed and or great Civil
war had finally settled all differences. did this nation really become a
united, strong and stable government.
The Mexcans must work out their own salvation, and there is IL
reason to doubt that they will work it tut finally o a satisfactory Il
cuion. As neighbors and wel-wishers W. should and will extend

order and justice, but there u duty ends. We are not divney APP
pointed regulators or pacfers OF any other nation. We shall attend
strictly to our W business and leave the Mexcans to theirs, so long as
they do not interfere with II just rights.

THE FALL OF BELGRADE

The entrance OF Austrian troops into Belgrade ends of the
most stfly contested campaigns OF modern history
Austria Hungary declared W ar on Servia July 2S, and the following
day moved on Belgrade. Technically the operation "A not a siege
The high Kahmegdan terrace, looking out I'VE the Hungarian plain and
protected by the Danube and the Save, commands the approach from
the north. Hence the Austrians opened upon it from across the Danube
with heavy guns, trusting to turn the position with a hed army.
The capital a removed to Nish, and preparation was made to sell
the nations life as dearly as possible. With the opening of the greater
war, Austria dropped the Servian conquest for the time being and drew
forces to the east. The 'Servians were dole to invade Bosnia and to at
tack Semhn the other side Of the Save. But the Austrians 500 re-
turned heavier forces to the southern field for the effect OF local vic
tories upon other Balkan powers, and the gradual beating back of the
Servian armies began. The campaign ended, as it was planned, by flank
invasion.
The defense of Servia has no been more heroic than that of Bel
giuhn. 1t could not be. One "a a buffer state with guaranteed neutral
ity, relying less upon its little army than upon "a scrap of paper" The
other wa a nation in arms where every Ia was a soldier. Both have
taught Europe a lesson as to the rights of small nations and their
power Of resistance. Neither in Belgium d in Servia is the lesson yet

More Good Roads
Marion County to Use Big Road Ma
chinery in Making Good Roads
in Warren Township

Thursday was day which meant
much to the good citizens of Warren
township. State Highway Commits
sioner F. W. Buffum, Farmer Jones
of Chillicothe, Judge Pine of the
Marion County Court and County
Highway Engineer Scheetz of Mari
on County came to this city and
from here made a touI of Warren
township. Eleven autos carrying
over SO people including the visit
ors made the trip. At the Stone
school house, Franklin school house
Warren and Cooper school houses
they met with the farmers living in
the several vicinities. The peOpls
who are anxious for good roads in
Warren township have been for
years paying money as taxes which
has been used in building good
roads around Palmyra and Hanni-
bal and now feel that the time is
here to get good roads in Warren
township. Mr.. Buffum was also of
the same opinion as he does not see
any good reason why all the good
roads should be built in the east end
of the county. Judge Pine prom
ises to build good roads in the west
end of the county He says that
the heavy road machinery will be
at work nuilding good roads before
June 10. This is as it should be.
The county court should realize
that the TAX payers of the county
get tired of paying in their money
for roads or any other purpose and
then having it all spent around the
county seats. We have had that
experience in Monroe County. The
people distant from the county seat
are entitled to their part of the
money and should have it.

Trained Teachers.

The teacher who is trained in the
work is the teacher who is in de-
mand, the teacher who does the
best work and the teacher who
commands the best salary. The
Monroe Public Schools established
a training course. 1t was quite pop
ular and several of those who took
it are going to teach next year.
Among the number are: Miss
Berta Nolen who will teach at Here
ford; Miss Elma Lane will teach at
Crab Apple; Miss Blanche Berry
will be in charge of a school near
Perry; Miss Marion Ryan will teach
the Rock Lick school, Miss Laona
Shearman has been employed to
teach near Strother and Miss Ruth
Mitchell will be teacher in a school
south of this city. All are excel
lent young people and we'll quail
fled to fill the important positions
to which they have been elected.
Success to them.

The Sun Shines-It Will Rain.

Some countries boast of being
the land of sunshine There has
been too much sunshine in this vi
cinity to please the farmers, but
man does not always know what is
best. Never did the corn fields look
better. They are clean and the
corn is growing nicely. Some farm
ers say the hay crop will be short
others claim there is yet time for
good crop Oats may not make a
big yield but that is not a main
crop here. The Hessian fly has
captured many wheat fields. others
are not hurt. This is no time to
get discouraged. There is yet time
for a big crop. The dry weather
now does not hurt so much as
would dry weather later.

Thirty-two Finish School Work.

The honor of graduating from
either of Monroe's SCHOOLS is some
thing of which any boy or girl may
be justly proud. This year the
greatest number in the history of
our schools attain that honor. The
four in Holy Rosary School are:
Frances Nan Seward, Alma Pierce

Public Schools are: Georgia May

evening was interesting from start

M. Sipple on the Goth Century
Youth ynd His Job" was filled with
good things. These young people
who graduate from the Monroe
should attain greater things. They
are much better fitted for the duties
and responsibilities of life because
they have diligently worked thus
They will find a continuation in
school will be of value. Thus far
they have found that there is no

are willing to pay the price. and
the price to pay is cheap when COM
pared with what is received.

May 30th (next Saturday. is
Memorial Day, the day set apart
for the decoration of the graves of
those who have gone on before.

Let US ever keep their good deeds
fresh in memory and place flowers
on the graves of those who have
crossed to the other shore.
The Odd Fellows will decorate
the graves of the Odd Fellows and
members of Odd Fellows families.
Saturday morning emblems will be
placed on the graves. Between IL

Good For Fire.
Again the water works has dem
onstrated that property in Monroe
is in less danger of being destroyed
by fire. A small building near the
light plant was discovered on fire
yesterday morning. The alarm was
sounded and it was found that the
water had been shut off temporari-
ly on account of a leak, the fire
spread rapidly. Soon the water
was turned on and the fire soon put
out. The Hawkins ice house was
almost completely destroyed. Some
insurance. The Conway Lumber
Co., had over $2100 worth of silo
slaves adjoining and no insurance.
1t has only water damage.
