NEW FUND SEEKS AID
FOR EURoPE'S BLINDED

Appeal by the American bankers
and business men has been issued in
an effort to assist as much as possible
the general welfare of Europe's blind
inhabitants.

and British soldiers who have been
blinded in the European war are in a
pitiable condition, according to the ap-
peal of American bankers, philanthro-
pists and business men. through the b.
F. b. Permant Blind Relief War Fund
$50 Fifth Avenue. New York City
The appeal was issued locally, today
by A. Fl. Stockham. president OF the
First National Bank. who is sub-treas-
urer of the fund in this locality and
who will receive all local contributions.
Unable to work at former trades,
these numerous blinded war-victims
cannot support themselves and their
families. Their governments, overbur.
dened with more immediate problems,
are able to do very little for them. the
appeal states.
Six months training, on the other
hand. the bankers. business mel and
philanthropists say. can educate almost
all of these thousands of now useless
blind men in practical. paying trades.
in which they can support themselves
and at least partially suppor. their
families. Work of this kind has al.

AS both are along peace lines, it
seems strange that Flivver should get
more votes in Nebraska's presidential
preferential elections than Mr.. Bryan.
yet such is true according to all re-
ports. Following the announcement
of this encouraging demonstration, Mr..
Flivver hastens to insure the Ameri.
can people that he is not averse to be.
ing president If the people want him.
Usually though it takes more than a
straw vote to elect a man to the presi-

has been said as to the number of
votes cast for Little Ben or for Helen

MExIcANs AND TEXANS.

In the ruck of news coming out of
Mexico since the punitive expedition.
marched into that country, is one that
Mexican newspaper known to be sup
ported by the Carranza regime has is
sued a proclamation calling for volun-
teers of any and all Mexican factions.
Carranzistas, Vilistas or Zapatistas, to
organize an EXPEDITION for marching
into Texas and annexing that state to
Mexico.
This is something worth talking
about. The fact of the publication can
not be denied. The statement is not
an emanation of the mind of the Dor
der newspaper takers who have since
found ample play for the exercise of
that fine imaginative faculty which
has given them worldwide fame.
Some of their stories, printed in Eng
lish newspapers, have ere now moved
the scornful to laughter and the jul
dicious to grieving. But this story of
the Mexican newspaper publication is
a well-attested fact. Therefore it be-
comes matter for serious considera-
ton, or, at least, as serious considera-
ton as we may be able to give it.
The most serious consideration we
are able to give it at the moment, is
in considering what the country would
lose in the loss of Texas. That is
serious thought, indeed. The Ameri-
can, no matter where born and bred
who has once seen Texas-enough of
Texas we mean to give him a right
understanding of its vastness. it's re-
sources, it's boundless horizons, its
Alamo and it's old tree at San Jacinto
has been, thereafter, better Ameri-
can for his experience, prouder of his
country and more loyal to its fortunes
Should Mr. Wilson suddenly grow too
proud to fight" for the keeping of
Texas. Cyclone" Davis and his new
collar, Jeff McLemore and his state
certificate as a congressman at large,
November would find his name blotted
out of the book of public life. We
should lose Wilson, but keep Texas
for Texas could take care of itself
against all of the Mexicans in Mexico
should such a trial come.-Globe-De

Mrs. Killian Held
in Great Esteem

Tuesday afternoon at the home of
Mrs. Angel on Garnet mesa, was the
occasion for delightful meeting of
the Harmony club. The afternoon was
a most pleasant and yet a regretful
one, as the fact became known that one
of it's most highly respected and active
members was about to leave Delta.
To the membership, Mrs. Killian, who
will soon leave us and take up her
home with her husband in enver, much
is due the club. She has been a most
devoted member and it is to be gen.
orally regretted that this most forward
worker is to retire from this city.
At the close of the afternoon refresh
ments were served and Mrs. Killian
presented with handsome olive spoon
as token for her past services.

The inclination which seems develop
ing to make war influence the para
mount issue in its bearing for success
or failure of the approaching presi-
dental election. should be a. subject
of serious consideration among the
voters. Diplomatic efficiency must
not be overlooked. but in this country
the paramount issues should be peace
and prosperity. Let us rather have a
well drilled and disciplined industrial
army. in which every citizen will be a
soldier. for our country's development
is but in its infancy; then if any
thievish foreign body comes over to
steal our chickens. well shoot then

When the government creates a job
for some one. the administration,
which is government de facto. must
select someone to put on that job.
Aside from being party man or
dude, there isn't much required in the
way of qualifications. As the ador-
able Mr.. Jiggs would remark: Half
of them could wear thimble for a
hat if their heads were cut down to
fit their brains" Two thirds of the
stuff they send out as the canned wis
dom of some one of the various bu-
reaus would make pig sick. But it
bears the stamp and frank of govern
ment, so the public, after bearing the
tax expense of its printing in Wash
ington and for the support of these
bureaus, must swallow it all, and oc-
casionally some good old lady who
never even smelled baby except over
the telephone, will marvel at the child
health wisdom quoted and feel amazed
that all the babies in the past did not

One of the dangers looked forward
to in the South is the over planting of
cotton, almost to the exclusion of other
crops. A year ago cotton in the South
was almost unsaleable because of the
over production. Suddenly the war
prices boosted that big crop into a
gold mine, and the whole population
has again grown crazy over cotton
planting. The outlook is of course a
gamble. If the war continues another
year or longer. it should be a money
crop. If, on the otheDhand, the war
should suddenly close. the prices
might drop to ruinous figures, in the
face of the possible amount to be
raised

We are having a fine time, every
thing is very quiet here now. All we
have to do is eat and sleep. and look
out for Mexicans.
We are now stationed in the town of
Hachita, about 25 miles from the Dor
der. We are supposed to stay in each
place one month. but I don't think we
will be here a month; they are going
to either withdraw the troops from
Mexico or send us all in; but hardly
think we will go into Mexico.
