The more people read the speeches of Vice Pres-
dent Marshall the more ferventy people join in
cry prayer for the preservation OF the health of
President Wilson.
Marshall has a smooth tongue which vibrates rap
idly at both ends.
He has absent-minded habit of setting his
gans of speech in motion and going away and leaving
them. The result is that most of the time the vice
president speech is several laps ahead of his brains
He talked to the Scottish Rite Masons at Rich
mond, Virginia the other evening" and although our
relations with Mexico and the Mexicans at the
most delicate juncture, he discussed the matter as
frankly a child talking to its playmates.
He would like to have the Carranza people repre-
sented in the Niagara conference He believed that
the United States will face crisis when Villa
enters Mexico CITY He thinks that Villa is a tvrant
little if any better than Huerta. He does not thinH
that Villa is likely to be party to the mediation He
thinks that the unsettled condition in Mexico will
continue as long as the people are left to them
selves. Mexico has been singulary lacking in patri-
OTIS, says Mr.. Marshall, having had none worthy of
the name JuareZ.
The human vocal organs unassisted BY the organs
of cerebration could scarcely compress impro-
prety in single speech. The vice president of the
United States did all these things He meddled in
the mediation proceedings; he fnsulted the Huerta
faction In Mexico; he insuted the Carranza faction
In the person of Villa; he insulted the Mexican PEG
pie in falsifying their history.

Well Attended Session.
PROVIDE FOR AVIATION MEET
Discuss Paving Question and Special
Committee Appointed to Attend
Meeting of City Council.

The regular monthly meeting of the
commercial club was held at the clul
rooms last Friday evening and much
important business was transacted be-
fore adjournment. The meeting was
largely attended which only goes tc
show that the business men of Deni
son are interested in the city's wei
fare and are anxious to do all in their
power to promote things which will
prove a benefit to the city and her
people.
Without question the most import
ant mater that came up for consider
alton OF the club was the ACCESSIBILITY
OF securing a real bird man to give
two days exhibition in Denison.
This matter was brought to the atten-
ton of the commercial club by the
directors of the Athletic association
who asked for the assistance and sup
port of the club in the undertaking
After explaining the project to the
members of the club, it was decided to
back the proposition and a committee
OF seven was appointed to carry out
the program and make all the nee
essary arrangements. The contract
for the aviator was signed up and
members of the committee have been
busy making all the necessary ar
ran2emcntS.
The committee appointed by the
president to attend to the new electro
lier system made a report to the club
which showed that Mr.. Hardenburg
had been paid for the posts to sether
with the installation Of the same and
that the matter was now settled.
Street paving came up again at this
meeting for discussion and Mayor
Laub reported that the city council
had investigated paving considerably
during the past few weeks. 1t is be-
lieved that a majority of the members
of the council are in favor of paving a
few blocks next year. The special
committee on paving was instructed
to attend the regular monthly meeting
of the council held Monday evening and
urge action. We have been advised
however. that this special committee
failed to make an appearance before
the council at their meeting on Mon
day evening and SO of course nothing
was done.
AT the request of several German
societies in the city the club offered
to donate $500 to help defray the
expenses of securing the services of
the Denison band to accompany the
special train to Schleswig on Tues
day and furnish music for the Ger
man Day celebration.
