PRESIDENT WILSON has given notice
TO the warning factions in Mexico that the
United States government will not longer
tolerate conditions in that unhappy coun-
try. Its people are starving, business is
utterly demoralized and the whole coun-
try is in state OF chaos. The President
calls upon the people OF our country TO
render aid TO those who are suffering
from famine and the ravages OF internal
war, and through the agency of the Red
Cross will endeavor to ameliorate condi-
tioHs. II the leaders of the fighting fac
lions do not speedily come to an agree
ment our government will intervene and
take charge OF affairs. The Presidents
policy OF watchful waiting will be super
ceded by active measures TO bring order
out OF the present chaotic condition. II
is said that hundreds OF thousands OF per-
sons are suffering for food, while cpl
denies OF typhas fever and other diseases
are adding 10 the general misery.
Uncle Sam truly has his hands full these
days-and all on account OF the perver-
sity OF other peoples.

In statement given out few days
ago Governor Hatfield makes this state
ment "ln the extraordinary session just
closed we secured taxation legislation
, which will tighten the burden of the man
who tolls"
Inasmuch as the said legislation in
creaSeS the State taxation OF the man who
tolls by some forty per cent, we confess
that we cannot figure just how his burden
is being lightened. Either the Governor
is deceiving himself, or he has very
poor opinion OF the intelligence OF the
people.
The one way TO have lightened the
burden OF the man who tolls was to place
production tax upon coal, gas and oil.
The Governor, it is charged and not de-
MED. made bargain with these interests
by which they escaped this very fair and
equitable form of taxation, and OF neces-
sity the increase falls upon ordinary peo-
pie. II was bad enough TO play such a
game upon them-it is worse to now try
TO bamboozle them by telling them they
are benefited.

GOVERNOR HATFIELD is very emphatic
and positive in his statements concerning
what has been done for the benefit OF the
people during lis term of office and is
rich in promises as to what will yet be
accomplished. Referring TO the revenue
measure passed by the Legislature in
compliance with his demands few days
ago, he declares:
1.-The new law is the opening wedge OF
a campaign OF tax reform which will re-
suit in the complete extirpation OF direct
levy and the imposition of an excise tax
which will be sufficient TO pay all the
expenses OF government. II is triumph
for the people,"
Words, idle words
The tax tickets tell a different story.
We have taken the trouble TO look up our
tax bills for the past few years, and they
show the truth concerning the burdens
continually added TO the patient backs OF
the people.
In 1912 the State tax was one cent on
the dollar
In 1913 it was cents.
In 1914 it was 10 cents.
In 1915 it will be IA cents
No amount OF sophisty can explain
away these figures. No argument can
Shift the responsibility.

There is only one way to cure deafness,

Deafness is caused by an inflamed con-

the Inflammation can be taken out and
this tube restored to its normal condition,

The German government has made its
reply to President Wilson's note, sent
soon after the sinking OF the ship LuSita-
MIA by German submarine, when NUM-
Der OF American citizens lost their lives,
and it is anything but satisfactory in its
tone. II evades practically all the points
raised by President Wilson and fails en-
tirely to give the assurance asked for by
our government, namely, that the lives OF
American citizens who are engaged on
legitimate errands shall not be unlawful
ly endangered by German submarines or
other war vessels.
The German government makes the
prepesterous claim that its murderouS act
in sinking the Lusitania was justifiable
act of self-defense. 1t arrogantly insnu-
ates that the American government doesn't
know what it is talking about when il
presents the facts of the sinking OF the
Lusitania. 1t declines TO discontinue its
policy of attacking merchant ships or pas
senger vessels and pays little attention to
the Presidents demand that the laws OIL
the nations as 10 neutral vessels shall moi
be violated.
The attitude of the German government
is SO entirely unsatisfactory that there is
general belief that serious results may fol-
low. Our government has taken a rea-
sonsble and just stand in the matter, from
which il cannot honorably back down.
The President has made no reply TO the
note of Germany, but it is asserted that
he will do so very promptly.
There is prevalent opinion that the
President will be firm and insiStent in his
demands as first expressed, and if Ger
many shall fail to reply satisfactorily witt
equal promptness that diplomatic rela-
tons will be severed and Congress called
in extra session to take such action a:
may be decided upon.

How sleep the brave, who sink to rest
BY all their country's wishes blessed.
When spring. with dewy fingers cold.
Returns to deck their hallowed mold,
She there shall dress a Sweeter sod
Than iancy's feet have ever trod.
BY fairy hands their knell is rung,
BY forms unseen their dirge is sung.
There Honor comes, pilgrim gray,
To bless the turf that wraps their clay.
And freedom shall awhile despair
To dwell weeping hermit there.

we can become acquainted.
Not along ago Observer and few Of
his fellow bird-lovers took walk win
the avowed purpose OF learning how many
varieties could be seen in an afternoons
stroll. We went down the river road a
mile or more, and then went up the old
trough road for few hundred yards.
The highest number We had seen on one
walk before This was thirty; but armed
with tleld- glasses and bird books, we
thought we could identity even more
and we did. The river road and the ra-
vines that lead into il here and there are
the favorite haunts OF great variety OF
birds. while the trough road is paradise
for them all-here we saw number Of
feathered friends in the thick underofuSh
that could only be identified by keeping
very still and observing most closely.
One member OF the party was detailed 10
write down each bird as il was Identified,
and at the end OF the journey the isl
numbered thirty seven-all observed IN a
walk OF about two miles and return and
within space OF four hours time. Here
they are in the order in which we saw
them:
/. Catbird.
2. Blackbird.
3. English sparrow.
4. Chimney swift.
5. Nighthawk, or bulbat.
6. Robin.
7. House wren.

Sc. Black and white warbler.
81. Purple marten.
Has anyone ever excelled this record :?
If, so, Observer would like to have knowl-
edge of it. 1t will be noticed that quite a
number OF birds more or less common in
this list are not mentioned-this is be-
cause we did not happen to get a glimpse
OF them on this occasion. We saw no
partridge, mockingbird, bluebird, rain
crow, lark, redheaded Woodpecker, nor
many other varieties that we know are
ordinarily TO be found in this neighbor-
hood. Observer is going out again some
day soon and see if he cannot enroll as
many as fifty ieathered friends. 1t can
be done if they will all show themselves.
Fellow observers will be welcome on
this trip.
