Waco. Texas.-The directors OF the
Cotton Palace are delighted over tne
fact that. through the efforts or q. IL.
Luedde. they have been able to secure
the famous herd of prize winning DeN
ter cattle. owned by August a. Busch
OF St Louis These cattle will be one
OF the most interesting exhibits In the
live stock department. of the Cotton
Palace. Thoroughbred Dexters have
never before been exhibited anywhere
In the South. MIR Busch has the dis.
tinction OF being the only man in Am
erica who owns any considerable herd
OF these famous animals.
The Dexter is known as the diminu-.
tive Irish cattle that excel the world
In the production OF a fine qualty on
meat and rich milk The origin OF the
Dexter is somewhat obscure. IL Is
probably member OF the celebrated
Kerry family of cattle. as the two
breeds are similar in many respects
Its small size and proportionateiy
small cost of production, will undoubt
eddy arouse the interest of Texas cattle
raisers The smallness of this breed
of cattle will be realized when 1t is
stated that the bulls at maturity never
weigh more than 500 pounds, wnlle tue
cows weigh considerably less. The
average height of these animals Is
thirty-six inches. They are stocky and
beefy, being built somewhat on the
bungalow style of architecture.
In addition TO securing his wonder
full cattle for the Cotton Palace. Mr.
Luedde has also prevailed upon Ms.
Busch to enter his world-famous Bevo
ponies. These celebrated ponies are
all of one size and color. They are all
an even fort wo inches high In fact
they are perfect matches In every de-
tail They will be shown in harness;
four-in-hand. six-in-hand and tandem.
The increase in the interest in the

more than five hundred people, in
Guiding the king, gathered in the

Rights of Neutral Nations.

Il cannot escape the view" Senator
Stone concluded, that a neutral ma
tion, suffering on SO large scale the
evils of war. is not obligated from any
just point of view to stand helplessly
aloof. denied all right to offer even a
suggestion until invited to speak. On
the contraryi-I hold that whenever a
| nation.rror' any group of neutral ma
tons, becomes the unoffending victim of
any war, it or they, acting singly or in
sentations to the nations at war, to
| discuss the questions at issue and
, strive for basis upon which honor
able peace may be restored to the
world.
IF you ask what the neutral nation
or nations might do if their approach
ment should be resented as offensive, l
answer that that would be a question
| for after consideration. The question
! is not difficult to answer. Various
things might be done If any or all bel
| ligerents persisted in a course which
| might be regarded as not only often
siye to but harmful to the neutral ma
tions offering their friendly services.
I do not now care to go to the length
| of indicating what might be done.
| my purpose in venturing upon this
theme is solely to combat the notion
| that in the circumstances of this war
neutral nations cannot properly move.
even in the most friendly spirit to ter
inmate a struggle disastrous not only
to the nations engaged in it, but enor-
| mously hurtful to the whole world,
until such outside intervention has
been invited. 1 cannot subscribe to
| that doctrine"

hood, the law-abiding members of the
community would have a right to call a.
