HIGH SCHOOL ELEVEN
HAS HARD SCRIMMAGE

The Bemidji high school eleven
went through hard scrimmage
against the scrubs last night. The
line has shown considerable improve
ment and as result the backf1eld
tore through the ''scrubs'' for good
gains.
Much time was spent in perfecting
the shift and new linesmen were drill
ed repeatedly in pinning their op-
ponents.
Last nights scrimmage found OPP
sahl at center, Lord and Tardie at
guards with Palmer and Grey at
tackles. Capt. Bailey was at his reg
ular position at right half with War
field at fullback and Madison at left
half.
Every night finds the coaches Civ
ing Lord instruction in getting off
good, high spirals. Lords punts have
been averaging thirty to thirty-fve
yards but considerable time is being
spent in getting the kicks away
faster.
Capt. Bailey is being drilled in
drop-kicking so that in case the To-
Gals are unable to penetrate their
opponents line they will have to re-
sort to scoring by the aerial route.
Tonight's practice will consist of
another hard scrimmage with con-
siderable time devoted to forward
passes.

Hughes stands for the protection

He also stands for the protection
of American lives abroad.
And for the protection Of Amer

All of which has been denied by
the Wilson administration.
The Democrats treated their plat
form promise as a scrap of paper be-
cause it declared: ''The constitu-
tional rights of American citizens
should protect them on our borders,
and go with them throughout the
world, etc."
A fine promise, but what about the
performance?
Did they afford protection to our
defenseless citizens in Mexico?
The unspeakable massacre at Santa
Ysabel answers that.
Was the solemn pledge redeemed
Was any real effort put forth to
carry out the promise?
What of the piteous appeals from
the Americans in Mexico?
Have not hundreds of Americans
been killed in Mexico during the
Wilson administration?
Secretary Lansing says no.
Any redress for the countless out
RACES on Americans in Mexico?
But there has been a decided eff.
fort to lend encouragement in turn
to the rival bandits.
With what result?
Anarchy, in which helpless Amer
leans were made to suffer.

The college man winces when he
hears that Wilsonian boast, "He kept
ussout of war. -. -. Many of them have
served on the Mexican border; have
perhaps seen their comrades killed;
have been p7ecented from returning
to their studies because of the war
with Mexico, which Wilson's own aid
admits legally exists. These soldiers
wonder what in. the world they are
doing down there. Either their presi-
dent is making fools of them in pre-
tending they are patriotically fight
ing an enemy or else he is trying to
dupe all of the people at home into
believing that these volunteer fight

that "you cannot fool all the people

That's why so many have enrolled
in the Hughes College Mems league
with headquarters at 511 Fifth Av-
enue, New York City. The league
now includes 100000 members with
branches in 130 cities. This league
in wilson's own college, Princeton,
has more members than the Wilson
league. Throughout the United
States the Hughes College Mems
league has more Democratic and in
dependent members than the Wilson
league. It is evident, therefore, that
the college men have forsaken Will
son and are endorsing Hughes. They
are the men who think before they
vote.

waited on the deck of the freight

only two tons of grapes, but 5000
quarts of whisky as well-was

He was the first man to get a

BEAUTY LOVER HAS PLAN
TO PRESERVE CLEAR LAKE

Box 80, Route /, Eatonville. Wn.
Sept. 10, 1916.
Editor Times, Tacoma.
Dear Sir: The motion to save
Clear Lake finds in me an en-
thusiastic second.
Have travelled a good deal and
am familiar with many of the
worlds scenic masterpieces, but
since first seeing Clear Lake on
a fine day, have maintained that,
as a picture just to look at occa-
sionally, it was worth $40, 900 to
any art lover; while to be saved
for a cityful of people and also for
their posterity, who will be more
beauty-hungry and scenery-appre-
ciative than we who have so wan
tonly destroyed so many of our
natural beauties, it's value is be-
yond computation.
Its accessibility, while adding
to the commercial value of both
land and timber, also, to my
mind, makes it easier to finance
the saving of it.
It's Right on the Road.
The lake lies within a few feet
of a road which, leaving the
The Tacoma times. [volume] (Tacoma, Wash.) 1903-1949, 1916-09-27

mountain road at the end of the
present paving, runs through
Eatonville and connects again Just
this side of La Grande.
This road is destined to be
paved, and is more beautiful
route to the mountain than the
present one. The real beauty
spot of the lake, the place from
which one can see the mountain
and its reflection in the water. is
right on the road, and tourists
can have this attraction added to
the trip without any loss of time.
A trip up the mountain road to
the Auto Club house, then across
to the east road, either making
the semicircle through Eatonville
or taking the road from Benbow
corner and return past Clear Lake
following as fancy dictates the
mountain road back or taking the
Clay City cross-road and coming
back past Lake Kapowsin and
Puyallup, is as fine between

somewhere on this route, and re-
turn in ample time for yespers.
Has Plan to Save IL.
AT present the family auto own
er is not being catered to by the
roadhouses, and | firmly believe
polite, modest-priced luncheon
and delicatessen would, as soon
as known, pay for the property
and buildings and very small
entry charge for picnic parties
would cover the upkeep of an
ideal picnic ground around the
lake.
The tendency among the more
moderately circumstanced to pur-
chase motor cars assures the sue
cess of such an enterprise. and IL
IL could be the means of saving
Clear Lake from a timber shear
ing, it would be one of the many
small occasions where capital has
also blest."
The people who will populate
the logged-off areas of western
Washington will be attracted, not
by its stumps but by its beauty.

When Deputy Sheriff Peter
Stenso began knocking the tops
from crates containing booze and
grapes, handing out the boxes of
one-dozen quart bottles to other
deputies, to be carted to motor
trucks on the other side of the
shed, the man with the thirst be-
came active.

of As quarts, worth $144, each
trip.
Puts Case Up to Shaw.
My Gawd, did you ever see so
much booze in your life?" asked
my friend Of the thirst, as he
wiped beads of perspiration from
his brow.
The pile of boxes, each with :ts
government stamp pasted on one
end, began to choke the bed of
the first huge motor truck. Fifty,
sixty, seventy dozen bottles were
piled upon it.

thirst had button-holed Detective

the capture.

aside brusquely.
