Death of
Mrs. Wilson.

The death of Mrs Wilson is a
fearful blow to our President.
She has been his constant COM
panion for many years. Herself
"a highly educated and cultured
lady, she has been q continual in.
spiration to President Wilson.
She was woman OF letters and
an artist. besides having a won-
derful insight into economic and
political conditions. She has been
a true mother to her family, a
true wife to a talented husband
and lady at all times. The Pre-.
sident has the sympathy ofthe en-
tire American people in his sad
bereavement.

Western Roads
After More Coin.

Increases in freight rates on all
the railways west of the Missis-
sippi river are being prepared for
submission to the Interstate
Commerce Commission. Mana.
gers of the western lines, accord
ing to the best information in
official circles, are prepared to
contend that they need more re-
venue to meet the increasing ex-
penses of operation and to point
out that their lines arc in even
greater need OF relief than the
eastern lines because Of necessa-
rily longer hauls and less density
of population.

The Primary
Election.

The Primary Law has pu much
power into the hands of the peo-
pie, but the law will not OF itself
give popular power unless it is
used by the people. 1t is essen
tial that everyone go to the polls
to help nominate good men for
rhe various Offices. If the people
will not attend to this duty, the
law will fail of it's purpose and
conditions will be the same as
under the old convention system.
Furthermore this time, the peo-
pie will nominate their U. S. Sen
ators directly. The people will
name the members ofboth houses
Of congress. All should get out
and attend to their civic duties.
Weigh well the merits of the can.
didates and vote for tine man y ou
think will best serve the people.

project. through the House last
week. The bill had occupied cal
endar Wednesday for three or
Ntour successive weeks and q very
hard fight was encountered on

The western members contended
that such charge would be bad
faith from the government to-
wards the settlers, all of whom
at the present have entered upon
their lands upon the basis of no
interest charges whatever. They
were able to defeat this PROPOSE
ton, however, by small vote,
and the bill is now awaiting ac.
