ed, or has the editor been handed his
passports by the Secretary of State :?
Unfortunately the editor of the
publication referred TO has not been
handed his passports by the Secre-
tary of State, nor has the appropri-
alton been exhausted, for the measly
pamphlet, dripping with reasonable
utterances, makes its appearance
with its wonted regularity.
The purpose of this publication has
persistently been to discredit the in
tentions of the administration with
regard to its attitude toward Huerta.
1t has not hesitated to assail the
President in every pespicable manner
possible, nor has it spared those who
follow his commands in the conduct
of our relations with Mexico.
No such paper could be published
in any other country. One hates to
think that anyone would have the
audacity to publish one in this coun-
try. So far as the citizenship of
this country is concerned, il can ac-
complish nothing detrimental to the
administration, but it has a bad eff
fect among the Spanish speaking re-
pubics to have such mendacious stuff
emanating from our own country and
right under the nose of the admins
tration.
However, this paper is but one of
several of its kind. Some equally
malodorous stuff comes right out of
Washington: One high in authority
in Washington has said that at is
certainly embarrassing to the admin
istration to have such stuff sent out
from this capital because the fact
that it comes from here gives it Il
presumption Of truth which it would
not have if it came from some other
CITY,"
In any other country the publisher
Of such malevolent assaults upon the
administration and its policies would
be prosecuted for treason. II is none
the less reasonable in this country
because it is not punished. 1t is an
audacious abuse Of the right Of free
speech and a free press that is guar
anteed by the constitution.-St. Jo-
seph Observer.

Songs of the Night Watchers
The Middle Watch
By Jean Ingelow

| woke in the night, and the darkness
was heavy and deep;
| had known it was dark in my sleep
And | rose and looked out,
And the fathomless vault was all
sparkling, set thick round about
With the ancient inhabiters silent,
and wheeling too far
For mans heart, like a voyaging fri
gate to sail, where remote
In the sheen of their glory they float
Or mans soul, like a bird, to fly near
Of their beams to partake,
And dazed in their wake,
Drink day that is born of star.
| murmured: "Remoteness and great
ness, how deep you are set,
How far in the rim Of the whole;
You know nothing of me, nor Of man
nor Of earth; oh, nor yet
OF our light bearer, drawing the
marvellous mons as they roll,
OF our regent. the sun
| look on you trembling, and think
in the dark with my soul,
How small is our place mid the
Kingdoms and nations of God;
These are greater than we, every one
Anu IneTe IallS great lear anu
dread cometh over, that cries,
20 my hope! Is there any mistake?
Did you speak? Did ] hear? Did
listen Alright, if He spake?
Did ] answer Him duly? for surely
/ now am awake,
If never | woke until now"
And light, battling wind. that leads
no-whither, plays on my brow.
AS asleep, must think on my day
of my path as untrod,
Or trodden in dreams, in a dream
land whose coasts are doubt,
Whose countries recede from my
thoughts, as they grope round about
And vanish, and tell me not how.
Be kind to our darkness. o Fashioner
dwelling in light,
And feeding the lamps Of the sky;
Look down upon this one, and let il
be sweet in Thy sight,
] pray thee, tonight.
Oh, watch whom Thou madest to dwell
on its soil, Thou Most High!
For this is world full or sorrow
(there may be but one);
Keep watch ore les dust, else Thy
children for aye are undone,
For this is a world where We live and
die.

NEW COLLEGE IN SOUTHEAST
MISSOURI
Campaign Will Be Commenced at
Once by Presbyterian Church to
Raise Funds to Build School.

That school of industrial and do
nestle science will be established at
Grandin in the near future now seems
assured. At special meeting of the
Iron Mountain Presbytery last night,
the committee appointed to investi-
gate the offer of the Missouri Lumber
and Mining Company, of school site
at the latter city, reported very IA
vorably on the proposition, and rec
commended that the offer be accepted.
includes property valued at more
than hundred thousand dollars, be-
sides bic cash offer. 1t is an OPP
portunity that the Presbyterian
Church cannot afford to neglect, and
Southeast Missouri will undoubtedly
soon be possessed of one of the finest
colleges in the state.
The members of the Presbytery
present at the meeting last night
were deeply Impressed with the OPP
portunity afforded by the generosity
of the Missouri Lumber and Mining
COMPANY. and campaign will be
commenced ut once to raise the mon
ey necessary to build the school and
get 1t on its feet. The investigating
committee also recommended that
the Women's Svnodical Board and
the Women's Home Missionary Board
be asked to aid in the work.
Mr.. Cornman, representing the Ag-
ricultural Development Department
of the Frisco lines, was present at
the meeting last night and gave much
valuable information in regard to the
resources of the Grandin country.
The establishing of school Of in
dustrial and domestic science in
Southeast Missouri, especially one
specializing in an agricultural course
will be of immense benefit to this
part of the state, and will aid much
in its development. Poplar Bluff

Lost Baby Faces

By Emma A. Lente
Oh, little baby faces,
Stamped with such heavenly graces;
You came to smile,
And stayed a while,
And left sad, lonely spaces.
Through waking hours we miss you
In dreams alone we kiss you;
In meadows fair,
In Gods safe care,
You stay while fond hearts miss you
Oh, sweet remembered faces
Once seen in earthly places,
So very fair and dear.
So brief the tarry here
Oh, little wirsomc faccal

Knob Lick to Have New School
Building.

Mr.. Eli White Of near Knob Lick,
who was in The Times Office the early
part of the week, gave us the infor-
nation that new school building is
to be constructed in that vicinity
soon. II is said that the new struc-
ture is to be built of granite, and
County Superintendent Akers says
that it will be the first building of
the kind in the county. There are
school buildings of frame, brick and
log construction, but none of granite
so far. Thus the Knob Lick build
ing in some measure will be unique.
1t will contain four rooms. The cit
liens of that community believe In
going forward and one of the ways
that they think they can take such IA
step is by providing the best possible
means for the education of their sons
and daughters II is said that aS
many as three teachers will be en-
ployed in this school, and probably he
able to give instruction in at least
three grades above the grammar
school. The new building is n result
Of the consolidated efforts of Webb
and Knob Lick districts. The vote
to carry out these plans was taken
about the middle of April and carried
by vote of "a to 5. 1t may be in
time that other districts will be added
and complete high school be estab-
lished at Knob Lick, a thing which
The Times believes would be in ev-
cry way feasible.

MAMMOTH cREAMERY IN SIGHT.

Durant is in line to get 1000
creamery and butter factory and just
the least bit of support will land the
proposition for the city. The require
ment asked for is to locate someone
with money to invest who is willing
to erect building 4Ox6O feet in size
and two stories high, suited to this
particular business.
Jenson Brothers, proprietors Of the
Durant Ice Cream and Creamery Co,
have proposed to Chamber of Com
merce that II that body will secure
a party who will erect two-story
building 4Ox6O feet that they, the Jen-
son Brothers, will spend some $4,000
on modern equipment and operate a
first class creamery and butter fac
tory in this city. The venture also
hinges upon the peoples ability to
secure the output OF milk from at
least one thousand cows for daily de-
livery, and they say that they can use
the milk of $500 cows.
The Chamber of Commerce appoint
ed a committee composed OF H. l..
Cox, v. e. Kendall and ], b. Hick-
man, to locate the man who ls Will
ing to erect the building, and the eoid.
mittee will report back to the Cham
Der as soon as possible, probably
within two or three days.
A factory Of this kind would put
lots of money into circulation among
the farmers and other people who
have milk cows. which would be real
cash, and It seems would be a valuable
asset for this city to obtain.
