FITTINGLY REMEMBERED

Just a little more patriotism found it
way into Memorial exercises this yea,
than heretofore. For, every tear. tn
great national anniversary was not al
lowed to 90 by without some special re
membrance of its significance, and it.
bearing upon our American life.
The celebration that was the mos
significant, this year, was no doubt the
unwilling and dedication of the monu.
ments to the victims of the battleshiI
Maine exposition in Havana harbor on
February Is, 1898, in Arlington ceme-
| lery. The address delivered by Gov
ernor Frank b. Willis of Ohio was es-
p~ecially timely. He said:
This nation must remember that
there is a heroism of peace as well as a
heroism of war. In its biggest and best
sense, heroism is courageous service OF
the peoples cause. He who calmly,
co%nscientiously and unceasinglydoes his
best to perform his duty to his family,
to society and the state, though he may
be to fortune and fame unknown, is
nevertheless, rendering a high public
service.
lit is a proper function Of govern
ment to encourage it's citizens in the
solution Of their country's problems by
giving every man, without regard to
race or color, a fair chance, and by en-
couraging u people to sobriety, indus
try and economy. Our own people must
be kept busy, our working men must be
employed at good wages, our industries
must prosper, legitimate enterprise
should be encouraged. And this pros
perity must depend upon forces within
CHASTITY prosperity fed upon dead men
can not long endure.
The president of the United States
is making a SUCCESSFUL effort to keep
out of the broils OF Europe. Now is the
time to keep cool, think carefully, and
stand by the president. He and his cab
know vastly more of our delicate
relations with European belligerents
than the rest of US can possibly know;
let US hold up his hands in the patriotic
effort he is making in this crisis.

MEXICo's CONDITION TODAY

Washington, ID. c., June BY
President Wilson q demand on the
present Mexican leaders to act to-
gether and act promptly for the re-
lief and redemption of their PROSTATE
country was made this afternoon. In
an open review of Mexican conditions.
the president said they could be no
longer tolerated. Unless the Mexican
leaders act, the president warned
Them that this counary would be
constrained to act.
1t has not been decided what means
will be employed by the United States
in order to help Mexico save herself
and serve her people.
The presidents note cites revolu-
tionary conditions in Mexico. He
says one party sought to quit them
and the United States sympathized
with that movement. Then when
that party was on the eve of victory,
other parties sprung up, all with sell
fish motives. Hence Mexico is no
nearer a settlement of differences
than before, because all the factions,
though they allege that they have
the same object, peace, are unwilling
to cooperate for peace.
The people of Mexico are starving
and war still sweeps their country.
The United States is unable to longer
stand by indefinitely. 1t wants moth
ing, but insists on being neighborly
and it calls upon Mexico to quit its
warning and set up a central governs
ment. 1t it fails to heed the advice,
the president will be constrained to
decide what means will be employed
by the United States to help Mexico.
