VILLAS PATRIOTIC STATEMENT

What is Villa going to do, is a
very live question in Mexico and
only in less degree in the United
States for that popular Mexican
hero has it in his power to rob his
country of all the fruits of Carran-
zas victory and continue the dis
turbance there indefinitely. Happi-
ly he believes in publicity through
the American press and he has is
sued a statement as to his relations
with Carranza which is really mo-
table document and shows him to
be both patriot and thinker who is
concerned more for the future of his
country than his own advancement.
Here it is:
Il have no personal feeling in
this matter against Carranza. This
country should not again be under
military government. The armies
by our constitution are secondary to
the constituted government, and it
is now time that the country should
be governed by the people, for the
people, and not as heretofore, gov
erned by military clique whose
only object is personal welfare and
not the welfare of the masses.
Il desire the moral help of the
American people in this political
fight | am now waging. / consider
myself the moral champion to pro-
cure by all honorable means for my
down rodden countrymen Justice,
at the same time showing them
their obligations towards law and
order.
There need be no alarm what
ever regarding my standing in this
matter. l desire the American peo-
pie to understand once and for all |
that l shall now take the part of |
silent moral pressure on any gov
eminent that may emanate; this |
pressure is not menacing by any |
means. l desire morality, the strict
est morality in government.

The people of Lee county of
course did the sensible thing when
they voted by a large majority last
Tuesday that thair county should
remain dry. The strongholds Of
the liquor traffic in the larger cities
will hold out for many years to
come, perhaps forever, but We can
imagine no reason why such traf-
fic should be tolerated in the small
err communities and its Internal
poison be permitted to flow unob-
structed through every home in the
land. Prohibition may not fully
prohibit, but it makes it so difficult
and inconvenient to get the stuff
that not nearly so much is con-
sumed and there is correspondence
less drunkenness, crime, poverty,
ignorance, shiftlessness and vice.
The best proof that prohibition is
a good thing is furnished by the
fact that nearly every community
in which it has been tried sticks to
1t and will have none of the old or
der.

many of us know the full text Of his
remarks which he concluded with
the famous phrase. Here they are.
Il am tired and sick of war. It's

those who have neither fired shot
nor heard the shrieks and groans Of
the wounded who cry aloud for more
blood, more vengeance, more desola-

Awning for Bungalow.

4 VIKINGS lend luxurious sense of
: GOODNESS and comfort in summer, but
they are undoubtedly luxury and rath-
er an expensive luxury at that, for good
looking. awnings made to order. for all
well run up into a substantial sum of
money.
Very good-looking. homemade awnings
that will answer perfectly well for the
bungalow or the back porch can be
rigged up with a few yards of striped
awning canvas and a long, strong pole.
A curtain pole of the cheapest sort.
sawed into the proper length, will an
swer admirably.
The lower edge of the awning is at
tached to. this pole, which may be run
into the hem. The upper edge is attach
ed to the frame of window or porch. Do
not nail it fast.
A better effect will be secured by plac-
ing small hooks along the frame and
sewing corresponding rings to the top
of the awnings. It is always best to
allow spaces for a hard wind to pass
through in putting up an awning or
some brisk gale may whip your awning
material into tatters.
The awning should reach from the top
of the window or porch about a foot
and a half longer that it will be braced
outward The braces may be Of iron or
of wood and should be strong enough
to stand some wind stress.
If of iron the ends may hook into
rings screwed into the window casing
and pole ends. If of wood holes may be
bored and screws will hold the braces
to casing and pole ends. In the latter
case the awning may be hauled up by
cords.
If the iron braces are used they must
be unlocked and the awning rolled up
and tied like shade.

THE SWISS ARMY.
Is Much Larger Than Ours and Nor
Costly Per Capita.

Letter to the New York Times.
The address of Mr.. Paul Ritter, the
Swiss minister, before the Lake Mo-
honk Conference on International Ar
bitration. as summarized recently in the
Times. is unintentionally misleading. Mr.
Ritter cited as a proof of the benefits
OF peace the fact that Switzerland has nc
standing army and that the funds appro-
priated for educational pursuits were
twice as large as those for military pur-
poses. It Is true that the Swiss consti-
tuition forbids the maintenance of a
standing army, but there is. nevertheless.
large federal army-considering the
small population-larger than our reg
ular army and militia combined. (swiss
army In 1911. 211.5e7. not including the
auxiliary or noncomhatant. troops. and
the last reserve of men between the ages
of forty-one and forty-eight. United
States Army and militia in 1912. 1906,
including all noncombatant troops and
the coast artillery. The United States has
no reserve.)
This Swiss federal army is called militia
because the recruits are mustered in.
and the expenses are partly paid by the
cantons. The federal government, how
ever bears the greater part OF the ex-
pense, has entire charge of the training
and can send the army into any canton
to suppress disorder. It escapes being
classed as a standing army because the
periods of active service are so short that
the training Is not continuous
1t Is also true that the cost of the
Swiss army Is absurdly small consider
ing Its size and efficiency, but this is
not indicated by the comparison which
Mr.. Ritter makes with the expenditures
for education. In the United States the
public schools alone cost four and one.
half times as much as the army. and
yet our army costs ten times as much
as the Swiss army does. On the other
hand the per capita cost of the Swiss
army In 1910 was $2-25. while our an
nual expenditure per capita is about
81. OF course. this large per capita cost
of the Swiss army Ia due to the fact
that Switzerland maintains a very large
army for its small population. That
the cost Is as small as 1t is cannot be
cited as a benefit OF neace, for 1t Is
wholly due to a rational military sys-
tenn. a system that is not only far more
economical than ours, but is more dem
ocratic,

spit ball pitchers are more or less

ROCK SANDS DEATH A LOSS.
Race Horse Succumbs in France
After Notable Career.

NEW YORK, August 15.-Rock Sand.
the triple-crown winner of 1908. recently
died at the Bel Ebat stud. near Paris.
France. where he had been standing
since his return from America The loss
is a severe one He had only reached
the age of fourteen years, and his book
was full for this year. also 1915 and 1916:
it was intimated that a very few nomi-
nations could be transferred at fee OF
$2,50c.
BY Sainfoin from Roquebrune, Rock
Sand was bred by the late Sir James
Miller, and as a two-year-old was only
beaten once in seven races, then finishing
third to Flotsam and Greatorex for the
Middle Park plate. His juvenile sue
cesses included the Woodcote stakes
Coventry stakes. Ascot: Chesterfield
stakes, Newmarket. and Champagne
stakes, Doncaster. while in the Dewhurst
plate he ran away from Mead and Great
orex and ended his career that year In
brilliant fashion. His next appearance
was in the Bennington stakes. at the
Craven meeting, when, with long odds
laid on him. the colt scored In good style
from Love Charm. This paved the way
for the Guineas, and Rock Sand, starting
a sound favorite, won from Flotsam and

IS POWERFUL BOAT.
Disturber III, After British Trophy
Ia Onlv Entry From America,

NEW YORK, August 15.-The cha1-
lenger for the British international
trophy, Disturber III, Is now tuning up
in British waters close to where the
defenders are being tried out. America
will this year be represented by only
one boat, but If that one can be made
to run properly she will make strong
bid for the prize. and many think she
will win. The Disturber III was built
this year for Commodore James A.
Pugh of Chicago, and is the most pow
erful craft ever sent after the cup.
The hull was designed by Fauber and
was built by Charles Swanson. under
the personal supervision of Commodore
Pugh This hull has five steps. 1t is
double planked, of cedar and mahog-
my, with oiled silk between the wood.
At the sides the hull is 1916 Of an inch
thick. and the bottom planking is half
an inch in thickness In order to re-
duce skin friction the boat is fitted
with pumps which force air under the
planes.
