Show Your Boys the City.

In the current issue of Farm and Fire,
side. the national farm paper published
at Springfield o., contributor gives a
lot of good advice TO farmers. Follow
ing is an extract taken from the ar.
tiele:
| IF you want your boy to stay with
You on the farm, then don't keep him
there Take him 20 the city. Don't let
him grow up imagining that city life Is
strange world of opportunity and
splendor from which he has been barred
Don't be discouraged il he wants TO 60
/. t. city to work. Find him a desir-
able Job. Don't expect him 10 believe
that the farm is the best place for him
TO live until he finds it out for himself.
Our boys are not made that way. II
il is fact, as we believe, that the farm
is the best place, then you can trust
the boy 70 discover it finally.
"But be sure that the boy takes with
him to the city complete, unprecedented
conception of what farm life may mean
to him. When he is a mere child, let
him 20 with you about the farm work.
Make it pleasant for him. Happy asso-
Citations with the farm at this time will
stay with him through life.
Hire him as child to help you do
the farm work II viii make him in
dustrious and also reveal TO him that
farm life is paying occupation.
ASK for his advice until he is able
TO give it. This will make him self
reliant and prepare him to bear respon'
sibility.
Let him have a calf TO raise, or a
Geld TO plant TO potatoes or pop corn.
Boys want something going on"

Mr.. McCombs Back Home,

Chairman McCombs of the demo-

ed to New York improved in health
and refreshed in spirits from a little
journey in the world. He made
short stay in Indiana and a shorter
one in Kentucky, but long enough in
both states to gather information of
interest and use to a man in his posi-
ton.
Politics was not in mind That is
shown by the fact that in Indiana Mr..
McCombs met Thomas Taggart, who
in campaign years is a politician, but
in off years-and this is an off year
in the Hoosier commonwealth-is the
proprietor of health resort. As Mr.,
McCombs was in search of health, he
sought Mr.. Taggart, who renews at
his place the strength of the ex-
hausted.
And in Mr.. Taggart's company Mr..
McCombs found Roger Sullivan of IL
linois, who is in politics every year
and all the year round. Mr.. Sullivan
is not in the strengthening busi-
ness, but addresses himself solely to
the task of depicting the strength of

Seeing America.

The foreign delegates to the pan
American financial conference are
now taking a look at this country.
They are in good hands. and are
everywhere being received most hos
pitably
This i feature Of the program
of the highest importance. 1t appro-
priatelv follows the formal meetings
held here Assurances given at the
conference are now being supported
by exhibitions Of our ability TO re
deem promises then made.
We are altogether sincere III our
desire for closer relations and larger
business connections with our south
ern neighbors. and fully able to do
our part toward establishing them.
This was well set forth in the ad
dresses delivered here. and made an
impression on all who heard
But what our guests are now en-
joying is ocular evidence OF It all.
We are able to make good. They
can see for themselves the size of
the country. and its manufacturing.
commercial. and agricultural devel-
opment. The proof OF the pudding
is in the eating. After these visitors
and trained observers have inspected
our resources and touched shoulders
with the men in charge, they will be
convinced that in the elaborate ad-
dresses made to them the case was
not overstated. We have the means
to do all that has been promised and
vowed in our name.
1t is good thing, too. that, for the
first time, some Americans are learn
ing by observation the size and sweep
OF this country. Barred by the war
from foreign tours, they are touring
the United States, and becoming ac-
quainted with their own home. They
have heard it praised for years by
orators and travellers, and been
greatly gratihed by the recitals, but
have remained until now without
hrst-hand knowledge of what they
nave stake IN.
At last, however. they are alive to
both the interest and the importance
of the matter, and acquiring inior-
nation from personal inspection
which will increase not only their
pride in their country but their ac-
tivities in the new opportunities the
war has produced. They will become
better Americans in every way, be-
cause acquainted with what lies be-
fore US and what may be done to
realize the prevailing national aspira-
ton. They will want to do their
share toward making America stand
for more than ever before in both a
material and spiritual sense.

Mr.. Brice carry a heavier burden in
1888, and was of much assistance to
Mr.. Harrity in 1892 In all three cam
paigns, two of which they won, the
democrats needed. and through Mr..
German more than any other one
man obtained, money in substantial
sums to present their case to the
country.
This problem next year may be one
of unusual difficulty for the demo-
Gratis. At present the business world
is not well affected toward the Will
son administration. 1t has suffered
ever since the administration took
charge. and holds the party in power
responsible for much of the suffer
ing. Times were hard before the
European war began. and arc hard
now. The war has benefited few
lines of industry; but when it ends
they will share in the wide slump.
If from any cause times improve
in the coming twelve months. and
capital and labor are well employed
when the next quadrennial battle be-
gins. those who pass the hat" for
Mr.. Wilson's second candidacy may

sight of the sun after a period of
leaden skies revives the spirits

But if the skies are still overcast
next year; if leading business indus
tries still show the sign, Nobody

suspended. and dinner pals half filled
or empty. democratic collectors will
be fortunate to return with their
hats. Subscriptions for continuing
losing political venture are not likely
to be numerous or large. In such cir
cumstances it will require sort of
hypnotism to coax coin out Of pock-
cts already heavily depleted.

War DEVELOPMENTS.

After the first few days of COM
paratively rapid advance the Italian
campaign has apparently settled
down to the stage Of trench fighting
that marks the hostilities in practi-
cally all other areas of the European
war zone. With the exception of the
Russian campaign the fighting in Eu-
rope is on a remarkably small scale
OF area compared to the number OF
men involved. Although the fronts
cover hundreds of miles. the success
sive advances Of the opposing sides
are slight In the Dardanelles fight
ing the British have just made gain
OF three miles. according to London
dispatches, remarkable success in
comparison with the average results
OF persistent hostiities. In Galicia
and Poland the Russian and Teuton
armies have swept over exceptionally
long distances, this being the only
zone of war in which large gains
mark the fighting.
Inc ltalldnS at present are held in
check by the Austrians both in the
Adige valley, in Trent, and in the
lsonzo valley, north of Trieste. King
Vlctor's troops, however, have at
least succeeded in forcing the fight
ing upon Austrian soil, and a persist
ence in this campaign. with Trent and
Trieste as immediate objectives, must
have the effect Of weakening the
Austrian lines in Galicia.
Reports OF early Rumanian en-
trance into the war field against Aus
tria are apparently we'll founded, spe-
cihc demands having been made on
Austria by the government at Bucha-
rest, with mention of time limit.
Apparently German diplomacy has
failed at Sofa also, for, according to
latest reports, Bulgaria and Rumania
have effected an accord whereby
Bulgaria will shortly take the field
against Turkey. The position Of
Greece becomes once more OF keen
interest as result OF King Constan-
tines grave illness. In the event of
his death. which apparently is not
unlikely, the war party at Athens, it
is expected, will gain ascendancy
through the avowed prediction OF
Crown Prince George for the allies.

times he succeeds. sometimes tails.
His latest effort-made last year
failed. But he is still in the ring.
In Kentucky Mr.. McCombs met
Henry Watterson. another man who
finds politics a jealous mistress and
does not divide his time. Like Mr..
Sullivan, he is always in the game,
and just now is laying down his doc
trine on the eve of state campaign
that no democrat can be a prohibi-
zionist Statewide prohibition is this
year the issue in the Bluegrass coun-
try.
From Louisville Mr.. McCombs trav-
eled to the plantation of former Sen
ator Camden. who was one of the
democrats responsible for the defeat
of the Presidents ship purchase bill.
Since March Mr.. Camden has been
devoting his time as private citizen
to his broad acres and letting the po
ltical world go hang. Still. he likes
his friends who remain in politics,
and Mr.. McCombs is of the number
In such company if the chairman
of the democratic national commit
tee talked no politics he overlooked
rare chance; if he did talk politics
he improved one.
Mr.. McCombs will preside over the
committees meeting next winter
when the time and place for holding
the next democratic national conven-
ton will be decided, and he will call
meets. to order Whether he will
conduct Mr. Wilson's second cam
paign for President will. of course,
be matter between him and Mr..
Wilson.
