Villas Start in Life.

A biography of villa compiled by
the Boston Transcript and read by
Senator Lodge in the United States
senate supplies the following facts:
Francisco Villa was born at Las
Moves in the state of Durango about
the year 1868. He is wholly unedu-
Gated. being unable to read and barely
able to sign his name. About the
year 1882, when only fourteen years
of age, he was sentenced to a term Of
Imprisonment for cattle stealing. On
his discharge he settled in the mining
camp of Guanacevi, where a few
months later he underwent another
sentence of Imprisonment for homi-
eide. When he came out of prison for
the second time he organized a band
of robbers, which had their headquar-
tiers in the mountainous region of Pc
rico in the state of Durango, and
were the terror of all that district.
In the year 1907 he was in partner.
ship with one Francisco Reza, stealing
cattle II, Chihuahua and selling them
in the United States, and then steal

Gen. Francisco Villa, leader of the

eye than the Spaniard, Carranza,

press bureau Is far more active and
his dash as a commander gives to him
importance as a news maker, over
shadowing for the time being the trail
of murder, plumber and outrage which
maps his field of operation.
Murder, plumber and outrage are
Villas specialties. He was reared that
way, and increasing opportunities
have made him a master hand in tho
business. To Americans his career Is
worth studying in connection with his

Public Road Buildinu,

Montreal Gazette: The province of
Quebec will construct a m~acadamized
road from Rouses Point, N. Y, through
Montreal and thence to Quebec, 240
miles in length. This road from
Montreal to Quebec will, by permits
sion, be known as the King Edward
highway, as a memorial to the late
king.
The province of Quebec will bear
the entire cost of construction, with
the exception of about $1,000 a mile,
which will be borne by the municipali-
ties through which it passes.
1t is expected that the whole 240
miles will be finished by 1915, and
when completed will constitute an I'M
broken stretch of macadamized road
extending from Quebec, Can, to
Miami, Fla, a distance of over $500
miles.
The construction of 240 miles of i'm
proved road means a big forward step
in a province like Quebec, which in
proportion to it's size is very sparsely
populated, while the roadmaking sea-
son only embraces ninety working
days in the year., and the severity of
the winter climate makes the cost OF
road maintenance unusually heavy.
1t is expected that such a road will
stimulate tourist travel to Canada ma
terially, particularly by automobile.

boo VA" FEATURE
OF CELEBRATION

Grafton, N. D., June 25.-Over 1000
Of the old residents of Walsh county
attended the Iicnic of the Walsh
County Old Settlers association, held
Tuesday at the Joseph Desautel farm
four miles northwest of Grafton.
The address of the day was made by
George P. Jones of LaMoure, other
wise known as Jones Of Rock can
didate for the democratic nomination
for United States senator.
The celebration was in charge Of a
committee consisting of Charles Car
penter, John DOnnelly, James Nc
Donald and l.. Richardson, all of Graf
ton and John Thompson of Hoople.
The real feature of the celebration
was the Boo va" prepared under the
personal direction of Jim Mcdonald in
two mammoth soup kettles, and which
the Grand Forks delegation unites in
declaring it to have been one of the
most "ambrosial" or possibly nee
torial' concoctions which ever trav-
eled down the human esophagus.
Other enjoyable features of the
celebration were dancing, which
continued through the afternoon and
evening, and a baseball game between
two picked mines.
This was the fifth annual picnic
which has been held by the associa-
ton.

Dr. Eliot Ontimist.

Cleveland Plain Dealer: Plenty OF
pessimists are ready to tell how in
evitably the nation is going to smash
and why. 1t is refreshing occasionally
to find one who believes quite the con-
traFy and knows why.
DR.. Eliot, former president OF Har-
ward, contributes to a popular montn-
ly some wisdom Of the optimistic sort.
He insists that a long life Is promised
the American nation because Of these
considerations.
Our federation in religion.
Universal education.
The better family life than existed
in any Of the historic republics that
persisted.
More equitable inheritance laws.
Publicity in all activities that con-
Germ the general public.
The organization on a large scale
of corporations which afford "a new
discipline for thousands of managing
Or directing people. .
And, to quote directly, universal
suffrage prolongs the effect Of n
versal education, for it stimulates all
citizens throughout their lives to re-
fleet on problems outside the narrow
circle of their private interests ana
occupations; to read about public ques-
tons; to discuss public characters, and
to hold themselves ready in some de-
gree to give a rational account Of their
political faith"
The period Of unrestrained muck
raking is past. and the effect of it
was far from being wholly bad.
Healthful, intelligent criticism of gov
eminent of private affairs should
never be discovered. If anything,
people criticize too little; take too
much for granted. On the other hand,
there is always "a good deal of mis-
taken pessimism voiced which passes
too often for intelligent comment.
Accordingly, it is interesting to have
a thinker of DR.. Eliot's caliber come to
the front with specific considerations
which argue a long life for the nation
which some pessimists would nave one
believe is doomed to earl extinction.
He puts into words what nearly all
feel to be facts.

William J. Trimble in the Atlantic:
AS a result partly of the widening in
uence of our agricultural colleges
and partly Of numerous cooperating
agencies, a new set of ideals is being
created with regard to country life.
The nation as a whole, in fact, is maxi
ing a re-estimation of rural life. With
the coming Of dear lands, city people
nave awakened to a new interest in
country affairs and a new respect for
country inhabitants. There is before
us in the United States the opportun-
ity to develop perhaps the finest type
Of rural civilization that the world
has aver known. The ownership of
land in past ages has always been
most honorable, but the working Of it
has been regarded generally as de-
grading. The actual farmers. equipped
with their poor, pitiable instruments,
and condemned to unceasing n dis
heartening toll, have been slaves, serfs
heather, pagans, Doors, peasants. But
today the use of machinery and new
facilities for communication make II
possible for the same individual to be
a tiller Of the soil and a gentleman.
