letter day in the democratic history
of northwest Missouri, for on that
date il is expected to have one OF the
greatest and arandest outpourlngS of
the democrats of the state ever hell
in st. Joseph.
ST. Joseph has been selected for
the point in which to open the nation
al and state campaign, and on that
date an aggregation of the most
prominent democratic speakers of
the state. headed by that great son
of Missouri, the peerless Champ
Clark. speaker of the national house
of representatives, will tell of the
accomplishments Of the party under
our great President Woodrow VIII
son, and will outline the work that
must be accomplished in the future
in order that the people of the Uni

prosperity and contentment which
should be their portion.
St Joseph democrats, under the
auspi es of the famous Monroe club,
will have. charge of the arrangements
and will see to il that every visitor
is given a hearty reception and his
stay made pleasant. While the

Realizing the government was

respectively. while the English firm
offered to furnish the drums for
S57, 436. a saving of $l02,S36 to the
government over the lowest bid of
the ring.
Recently the secretary awarded a
contract for building 100 torpedo
TASKS. including heads. He induced
a new firm to slip in with bid, and
was able to purchase for S5S,246
materials which under normal con-
ditionS would have cost Sll5,0T5.
The bids of the Bethlehem and Mid
vale companies, under real competi-
tive bidding. showed a reduction OF
ii per cent as compared with bids
for similar forgings submitted by
these companies only four months
previous.
Personally, | believe that these Of

peoples money, have been paying

have been obtained for S5S.246,

WHAT THE SMALLER PAPERS
ARE DOING

"The smaller newspapers of the
country have to their credit one OF
the really great achievements of the
last few years. mean the spread of
compulsory education" declared W.
Carson Ryan, Jr., editor Of the Unit
ed States Bureau of Education, in an
interview with the United Press.
Two years ago there were six
states without compulsory education
laws; today there are but two. The
change is largely due to the smaller
newspapers.
Here, in the Bureau of Educa-
ton, we have learned from wears of
experience to depend upon the papers
of this type.
1T is a curious thing that much of
the educational progress of today IS
being made in the smaller towns.
The big city has the system, the Or
~ganization, the discipline; but the
smaller city is apt to have the indie
pendence and spirit that makes for
progress.
The smaller newspaper is notable
Tor its boosting of progressive idea.
1t Is apt to be in closer touch with
its constituency"

WILL THE SENATORS PLEASE
TAKE NOTICE

The road between Keno and LAR
son especially that part a short dis
lance north Of Lakeview on to where
the conyicts concluded their labors a
number of years ago, is IN deploraole
shape and to remedy it i'll a proper
manner seems to have got beyond
the control of the commissioners OF
Washoe county. For the bad cou-
ditin which the road has reached the
commissioners Of that county may
not be to blame, Tor they have spent
lots of money in their efforts TO keep
il in repair and are doing some I'M
provement work right at this mo-
ment. BIT the work that has been and
is being done is not OF the right
kind and probably with lack OF an
abundance OF money it never Will Dc.
It simply emphasizes the fact Nevada
counties are too poor themselves to
build and keep up road repair. 1T
should be a function OF the state, as
it has become in several OF the east
ern commemorative.
But to put the roads OF Nevad III
such shape as they should be put
requires a vast amoun OF money,
more than this state in justice to us
residents can afford to spend. a
way to raise the money, however, pre-
sents itself in asking the Federal
government to grant the state a few
hundred thousands OF acres OF the
land which the government owns
within Il lines and this could be
sold to raise the necessary funds
Thus a twofold purpose would be &c
complished, namely, the money would
be raised for the road work and the
population of the state would be in
creased by the addition OF those who
purchased the land. 1t is possible il
will cost 100000 to put the roads
OF Nevada in good shape, but if thai
money can be raised through the
governments donation of land, ant
subsequent sale to settlers, it is go
ing to harm no one and will help {
great many.
This proposition is respectfully
suggested to Nevada's state officer:
and the Federal representatives If
senate and house.

MAKING A CHOICE IN MEXICO

Three features OF the Mexican sit
uation already justify the recognition
OF Carranza by the United States and
the Latin-American republics, says
the New York World.
H. 1t is found that the pledges OF
General Carranza are much more COM
~prehensive than was at first suppos-
ed. For the first time in his inter
course with his neighOors he has
made a complete avowal of his pur-
poses, and it must be admitted that
they reveal an admirable spirit. the
guarantees now offered amount to a
bill of rights for Mexico.
2. 1t is intimated by those close
to Villa and Zapata that, having fail
ed OF recognition, they will resort to
~brigandage, recognizing neither ia
tional nor international law. The
weightest arguments against every
hope that has been based upon the
triumph of Villa have held that he
was essentially a bandit and that
whatever reputation he may have es
tablished to the contrary was due &c
a clever press agent.
3. 1t is noticeable that most of ,ie
people in the United States who pro
Tess to be greatly outraged by the
impending recognition OF Carran.a
were raging with indignation tive
years ago because Huerta was no
recognized. This seems to prove that
in spite OF the detection Of some O
its leaders, Larranza is still recogniz
ed by its enemies as the true head 81
the revolution.
The First Chief is not an impos
ing character as yet, but it is eviden.
that Mexico has nothing better tc
offer. AS between Carranza and an.
archy, the American republics have
done we'll to choose Carranza. He
at least, is a hope.

LET US HAVE G L

This is the season of the opening
reason a humble plea forsthe English
language may not be out OF order.
We make it shrinkingly and with def
erential regard to the profounder
teachings Of Professor Brander Mat
thews, who proclaims the grand prin-
ciple that everything goes" Ac-
cording to the distinguished author
ity language is made of the people,
by the people and for the people,
and hence what the people say IS
good and should therefore be admit
ted to academic society.
At this time the people call a man
a guy" a woman a skirt" and a
dog a mutt" Other samples of the
speech OF the people are not essential.
The truth is few can say anything in
the old-fashioned direct way. All
have become SO accustomed to the
use of slang that the common speech
is no longer common; it is become a
curiosity, relegated to the obscure
haunts of the "highbrows" and treat
ed with scorn by the workers of the
world While this undoubtedly gives
much joy to Professor Brander
Matthews, it saddens some old fogies,
who mour the departure of earlier
and more elegant ways OF speaking,
as they Mourn the decadence Of
earlier and better Perhaps
the W were unrelated, but they were
at least companions.
Is it not probable that if the young
ceased to call their elders "old guys"
or ~"geezers," to refer to other peo-
Pies mothers as Skirts" or rags
and generally begin to lift their term
inology toward levels of a decorum
less figurative, if more prosaic, they
might also improve their manners?
