Naco, Ariz., Nov. 10. - Carranza
and Villa forces, each about 1000
strong, with all branches of troops
represented, were deploying their
skirmishers across the border in
Mexico today as pre1iminaries to the
battle that may decide the rulership
of Northeastern Sonora. Because of
Carranza's advantage in big guns, it
was Villas intention to await the
first move from the first chiefs

'I think it the doctors business to
save life," said DR.. Robertson. 'It is
not his duty to say who shall live and
who shall die. Dr. Haiselden's act
may have been right in this instance,
but it is setting bad precedent, for
physicians not so learned as he will
take it upon themselves to be judges
as to whether a newborn babe shall
live or be made to perish"

MUNICIPAL WOOD YARD NOT
DOING MUCH BUSINESS

The municipal wood yard just
started at N Desplaines and Fulton
SITS. is not doing a rushing business.
Though the past three nights have
been cold a total of but 10 have gone
to work in the woodward to exc out
their supper and nights lodging.
Mrs. Louise Osborne Rowe, head of
the department of public welfare,
feels very much hurt. She laid plans
for entertaining hundreds of guests
each night, she sent out her invita-
tons, but the guests did not come to
the party.
The reason down and outs COM
plain is that Mrs. Rowe's plant wants
dollars worth of work for a scent
bed and two Itney meals, when a
hobo can get better feed and quarters
with two-bits earned at a half-hour's
work raking up leaves or splitting
hndling and still have jit or two
left over.

DEFORMED BABY DIES WHEN
DOCTOR REFUSES TO OPERATE

DOCTOR REFUSES TO OPERATE
The baby of Mr.. and Mrs. Allen
Bollinger is dead It died at German
American hospital last night after its
parents and DR.. H. ]. Haiselden had
voted it should perish because it was
imperfect.
The baby was a victim of science.
Some say it was murdered; some say
its death was just and humane.
Science through the surgeon said the
body was deformed and the mind af-
fected; that if the child lived it would
probably be an imbecile, always in
misery and a misery to all.
The child lived nearly a week in
spite of the decree of death rendered
against it at birth. When in the
throes of death the child took a NOR
tifying fling at science. 1t had been
pronounced dead and DR.. H G. w.
Reinhardt, coroner's physician, was
called to perform an autopsy. When
the body was laid on the operating
slab and its covers unwrapped it was
found kicking and gurgling, very
much alive, 1t died shortly after. DR..
Reinhardt after the autopsy said the
child would have been defective of
mind had it lived.
Miss Catherine ]. V. Walsh, parish
ioner of st. Ann de Brighton's Cath
Ole church, christened the child a |
few hours before it died. She insist |
ed it was wrong to send the baby out |
of life without even the right of bap-
tism. She insisted on staying near
the child after she had performed the |
sacrament and attendants say she |
later admitted that with a chance
she would have kidnapped the baby
and taken it to a doctor who was all |
ready to perform the operation ne
cessary to save its life. ..I
Only simple operation was neces-
sary DR.. Haiselden admits. DR.. John
Dill Robertson, commissioner of |
health, did not learn of the affair till

IF YOU LISTEN

If YOU listen to the doubters and the
scoffers on the way
You will never rise to glory or to
fame;
If you weakly give up trying just be-
cause OF what they say,
You will never be a leader in the game.
They will hinder you and hamper you in
every way they can;
At the goal that you are striving for
they'll jeer,
But do not get discouraged, plod along
and be a man,
And soon you'll hear the doubters
start cheer.
For the doubters and the scoffers are
against whatever's new,
And failure is the thing that they
foresee;
They spend their days in telling what
youth will never do
And they never help him win a VIC
tory. r.
They're against the youth who's trying
till they see that he has won,
And the only thing they ever do Is
Till they suddenly discover the impos-
sible's been done.
Then they rush to be the first to give
cheer. ID. +. p.

WILSON TO BE OPPOSED.

Hon. A. w. Rucker the sage OF Fuckers

al-around fine gentleman has recently returned
from an extended visit to his old Missouri home
and other Eastern points. While away he hob

Democratic channels. and he brings back the news
that the friends OF Speaker Champ Clark OF the
national house OF representatives going to get
busy and push him candidate ion the 'pTesi-
dental nomination at the hands OF the Democrats.
There is no question but there is considerable op
position to President Wilson in his own ranks and
II IT should crystalize one man, it is likely TO
prove quite formidable. Another element that is
likely to cut some figure in the fight arc those
who believe the plank in the platform of the
dominant party, providing for one term, meant
what it said. Doubtless considerable agitation
this point will begin to rage in the near fu-

MAY BE TRACED TO TARIFF

Those American manufacturers who
have been cheating the French gov
eminent on army contracts for shoes.
which by sample we're good and on
delivery proved to be rotten, aud for
stockings which we're to be 70 per
cent wool and 30 per cent cotton and
proved to be the other way round,
are taken severely to task by the Dry
Goods Economist. They are denounced
rs traitors in our W camp" They
have "besmirche1 the honor of Made
in U. s.. A. merchandise" at a time
when every effort is being made to
give the label a prestige which will
weigh in all outside markets.
There is justice in this indignation.
There is also an element OF injus-
tice. What these manufacturers have
been doing to the French army they
have been doing to the American peo-
pl, time out of mind. 1t has become
An ingrained habit. They have been
encouraged in this by their own gov
eminent and commonly by a majority
of voters. The national power of tax
alton has been used to stimulate them
in the hidden substitution of cotton
for wool, ~pastebsard for leather, shod-
dies for honest material.
This national policy in cultivation of
manufacturing h%elpfulness and false
pretension has now been reversed;
yet old habits are hard to shake of.
The Dry Goods Economist Is right
ly appalled, by this noisy international
advertisement Of the tarif-fostered
shoddy habit at so inopportune q
time. But does anybody suppose
American industry is to be rid of II
through the restoration Of q public
policy which has been responsible?
