peed him to marry the erring one. The ceremony was performed by priest that had been taken along for that purpose. A brother of the doomed man was digging his while the wedding under way.
 This story old Mexico long be- fore Villa born. Other stories of the Villa episode have described a member of the great Ter razes family the betrayer of the sister, while in the Adossides account the betrayer sheriff, of whom there have never been any in Meq leo. There is officer there whose duties spond to those of sheriff, though such duties merged in the much larger of the prefect of district.
 In other respects the account of this biographer of Villa is ridiculous that surprised it's appearance in a periodical the standing of the Review of Reviews Villa is said, in the story, have been left in charge of the Villa ranch by the death of his father whence We conclude that he was landed proprietor One with the minds eye magnificent domain upon whose thou sand hills the Villa cattle It is well estab lished fact that Villa came from the peon class. Peons have ranches.
 There is the statement, also, that Raoul Madero and Villa were warm friends in their youth. The editor of the Review of Reviews should have been aware of the impossible chasm that must have ex- isted between the wealthy, educated and aristocratc Madero and the low-born and ignorant Villa in a country where in those days caste counted for so much In the early days of the Madero revolution, Raouls friend of his youth still bandit. and was recognized as such even after the ascendancy of Francisco l. Madero was established in the north He the revolution than hundreds of bandits to whom the revolution gave the opportunity leave their mountain fastnesses and in plundering with greater safety. At the end of the Madero revolution though by this time Villas rela- tions with the established, he was greater prominence and enjoyed greater mark of favor of the Madero family than scores of a military figure he in the public eye until after his boodless seizure of Juarez and his bloody occupation of it. in the CarranZa revolution does appear have attracted the special notice of Carranza until after that episode.
 Returning the story of his startling revenge for the betrayal of his sister, it must be apparent in circumstances related by Adossides, that such against of position. guilty of betrayns q young girl would have made him an outlaw, especially in Mexico. Even the United States such acts perhaps little less spectacular. have often been justified by the unwritten law.
 The story of Villa in the Review of Reviews is evidently an incident in the conspiracy in which Mr. Bryan seems be a participant. to manufac- Villa has attained d rough and ready military genius whom the administration has somehow adopted.

The Mule
By WALT MASON

A cheerful crtter is the mule. his disposition S bright and gay; and when the weather's crisp and cool he says "Hee- haW," and runs away His Hee-haW' cheers us like the deuce, it's such an optimistic shout, and when he turns that slogan loose, it jars the welkn inside At midnight when the world is still tn" mule from out the barn yard strayed comes close up the window sill and tries to make CarusO fade. We admit he can sing, however earnestly lie tries but he has such good traits by jing. that forgive his How patiently he drags the blow. how earnestly hell strive and strain, and swallow grub that horse or COW would pass up with high disdan He tolls bring his master dimes. faithfully the long day through; at night lies down and rolls three times and then gets up good He doesn't stall
 around or shirk though roads be long and days be hot; he's always ready for his work, and dies unless hes shot. And yet greet the mule with jeers make him the butt jokeets raw, because he has many ears and sing like Ellen Yaw.

FOR FEDERAL INCORPORATION

It is becoming apparent every day that the federal government should have control over these great combinations which engaged in interstate and foreign commerce. They confined to section of the country. They supplying goods for the whole United States and for foreign na- tons. The states powerless, for they have no control interstate commerce. Therefore since the business the nation chiefly interstate com merce and the able to control 1t pro- periy it is necessary that the national government assume control of the big business interests of the republic One of the methods approved by many statesmen is federal incorporation.
 Under existing laws incorporation is done D! the states When company is incorporated in one must first seek the permission of each state. In fact must be rencorporated in state in winch it desires do business. It must conform to the various laws of incorporation. Another dis advantage of the present is that according to the federal constitution state impair the ob- ligation of contracts. Vested rights might be ob- tained in state and thus give that corporation power which cannot be taken away from it. The incorporation of corporations engaged in interstate and foreign commerce oy the federal government would remove the necessary power to control these combinations.
 corporation created thus will better know its status. It will know it's Limitations It's power will be defined in it's charter It will not have to con- form all the laws of the in order to know that it has the privilege do business in q certain in all the states.-Paul H.

Farm Notes
BY H. L. RANN

Life is full of inconsistencies Some men will stand around on the street and kick about the high cost of living until milking time then go into the grocery store and home a dimes worth of soda crackers, a section cut plug big enough C would smoke a poecat out the township We heard old rip with booze breath that would curl up cussing the lining of the tariff law before large and admirng audience the county fair before he left the grounds he had lost $2S5 the wheel of fortune, knocked S5 worth of babies off their perch with a baseball and visited every side show the lot including the Fairies in the Well. His wife told a neghhor that she had just been obliged to cut down her contri button to the Ladies Aid but she threw enough but tered popcorn and ice cream cones into her system that afternoon to support missionary to the heathen d year. This is a funny world.
 We notice that some leading farmers are providing their hogs with antiseptic waloW where they may retire modestly from the public jiggers which have percolated their physique This is humane and uplifting idea. The jigger is a trifle slow on his feet but he is harder shake off than an undersized bathing suit and stayer he has his step-sister. the California flea, beaten four ways from the pump. The idea of making the hog do his disnfectng will be greeted with loud acclaim by the board of health.

WHOSE ENGLISH IS WORSE?

A slipshod English has been a favorte charge of American writers by their English sins. The latest accusation is that have gone so far force the English themselves to use our slang. But Rossiter ,Johnson has difficulty in showing that classic English writers are guilty of clumsy and incorrect usuages If this is the case with makers of English in the slow and careful pro- of book writing the critic should not quite captiouS concerning the slangy faulty English that creeps into the American newspaper and per iodca produced under a degree of pressure entirely foreign writer of books. D. Johnosn ranges over the field of literature and shows by striking examples how Macaulay, Ruskin, De Quincey Ten nyson, Lecky Thackeray, Hallam and many others have split their infinitives separated verbs 6y flying words put in the place. and dotted their writing with various awkward ill-contrved and biguOus eXpressOns.--Leslie's.

Colonel Roosevelt and the People

If any believed that Colonel Roosevelt had lost his hold upon the affections the American people, he have been undeceived by accounts Of the reception of the colonel during his at Washington Tuesday. MT. Roosevelt has been loosely described a popular idol. He has never heen idol, for idols unthinkingly worshipped and men who popular idols admired by their countrymen who could give good reason for admirng them.
 AIr. Roosevelt is worshpped all. but he is admired for the things he has done and for his way of doing them; for the and active interest he has taken in all those things in which the people at large interested
 In address recently in eulogy the Asso- ciated Press, a speaker said that it the policy of the association in political campaigns to avoid an appearance of discrimintion, to allow as much space to the doings party and it's candidates to another But it had been subjected to some criticism allowing space to accounts of the movements Colonel Roosevelt than those of other candidates. But he said it could hold the Roosevelt doings down 10 the allotted space they were 50 important and so attractive to the readers of the papers served by the association
 In times past papers which did not like MT Roosevelt determined keep him off the page They would have liked exclude him from their columns altogether. But such efforts ahor tive. Their readers demanded Roosevelt news. and turned to those papers which printed it.

In three wards the partisan didates elected while ward is in dispute.
 But the non partisan candidates at large, for mayor street commissioner, clerk and city shal were elected by majorites ranging from 260 to 400 in a total vote of about 1900. The vote for members Of the city council shows again the desra bility of aboishng the ward system, for well gov eTned city must be a a dscordant fed eration.

General Bertrand Turned Retreat Into Savage Alt
 tack by Stirring Words

Havre, December 5.-(Correspondenc of the Associated Press)-A quick command frcm General Bertrand at Haecht turned retreat of the Belgian forces into an at tack in much the same manner as General Sheridan turned the Union forces at the be tile of Winchester in the civil war The story Is printed in the Courier de lArmes the official Belgian soldiers paper.
 General Bertrand, who succeeded Gen. cral Leman in command of the iron di- vision which withstood the Germans at Liege. suddenly found his troops in re- treat.
 Friends he shouted, you've mistaken the road; the enemy are in the other di- rectionv'
 Electrified by their leaders words the soldiers wheeled about and charged the German troops with renewed vigor.
 On another occasion the general is de- clared to have stopped an attack of two Belgian companies upon each other by rushing between their lines and singing a popular ditty. Until they heard the gen. erals voice the soldiers did not realize that they were firing on their own coun- trymen.
 t The general Is 57 years old He was a second lieutenant at 20 years and became major general last March.
