From the day of his first nomination, his I'M

party he has been only following in the footsteps of
his party predecessors jefferson and jackson were
also party leaders rather than great presidents
Or, if you please, they great party presidents
only in far they great party leaders; and
in this respect they offered sharp contrast to the
great presidents belonging to the opposite nationalist
tradition, Washington Lincoln and Roosevelt who
always appealed to something more than partisan
idea and aroused something larger than partisan
support.
Mr. Wilson assumed office at critical
in the life of democracy. The progressive
had caused a schism among the republicans Both
the conservatives and the radicals in that party had
become attached conservative radical

resolved that under his leadership the fellowship
his party should be similarly shattered that
effort should be spared to preserve the unity and
new the vitality of the democracy.
Never for one moment has he allowed this major
purpose to be neglected obscured. In the effort
to accomplish it he has been. he obliged be.

PONY EXPRESS RIDERS

W. A. Cochran, of Benton City, who
drove one Of the Overland stages dur
ing the civil war, was in this city
Monday and wants the government to
pension the stage drivers, and those
who made up the pony express. He
says they were immune from army
duty during the civil war though their
work on the Western frontier was Of
great service to the government.
Mr.. Cochran says President Abra-
ham Lincoln told Ben Holiday, owner
of the Overland stage system, to keep
the road 70 San Francisco open at all
hazards and It was done though the
efforts of the intrepid men in charge
of the various stages.
They say that the mails were sent
across the continent regardless of the
ambushed Indians and hardly day
passed that they did not take their
lives in their hands crossing the In
dian infested prairies. Mr.. Cochran
is one af the men who would benefit
If such a law were passed.

TO VOTE ON LIBRARY
MAINTENANCE SOON

At the coming city election the vot-
ers of Mexico will be asked to vote
$1,000 year out of the city general
revenue for the maintenance of the
Carnegie Library. The following
statement from the library board ex-
plains the matters thoroughly and the
matter should carry without dissent
ing vote:
To all who desire the moral and in
tellectual welfare Of Mexico at the
city election in April, the Library
Board and 100 friends Of the library
will ask the voters Of Mexico to vote
to the support Of the library a portion
Of the city's income.
There will be no increase Of taxes.
The voters will be asked to vote how
a portion of the city's income shall
be applied.
The Library Board received from
the city funds more than the cost Of
the building warranted, as the first
vote set aside sum based on the ex-
pectation of a $4,000 building.
The Board returned to the city ST.
200 of the sum set aside by the first
vote, made no objections to the vote
doing away with the first appropria-
ton, and have invested for furniture,
shelving and fixtures about $500, so
that the value of your property is a
bout $4,000. In addition to this there
are $500 books obtained by purchase
and gifts serving 1,50O to 1000 read
ers, half of them juvenile.
The readers have increased fourfold
in two years, and the future useful
ness Of the library depends upon your
good will, and such a portion Of the
city's income as will maintain it.
From the earliest times mankind
have recognized the usefulness Of a
library in building up the mental and
material welfare of the people. Our
country's welfare depends on the in
telligence Of its citizens. We ask the
good will and help of all to increase
the usefulness of library, that it may
assist in making good citizens of the
youths of today.
We are in honour bound to maintain
this Library, having received the build
| ing from Mr.. Carnegie, with the cleai
understanding that we would support
| it.
This is call of both duty and honor

U. S. NAVY PREPARED
BUT IS INADEQUATE

Chicago, Ill., Feb. 1.-The United
States has made Preparations for i'm
mediate war, as far as the navy is con-
cerned, although ths present naval
force is inadequate in size, President
Wilson declared last night in an ad-
dress before several Thousand persons
in the auditorium.
1--WE mean business" he said, in
speaking of the Preparedness plans of
the administration. ~
sWe have given to the present fleet
of the United States an organization
such as it never had before, am told
by Admiral Fletcher" the President
said. "And we have made preparation
for immediate war SO far as the navy
is concerned"
The army, the President said, as at
present constituted, sis not large
enough even for the ordinary duties
Of peace"
The President repeated his warn
ings that no time must be lost in
Strengthening the defense of the ma
ton. He declared the Government
was doing everything it could for
preparedness.
when ! see some of my fellow cit
liens spread finder where the sparks
are falling, wonder what their ideal
of Americanism is" the President
said.
America, the President said, had
been cruelty misjudged by the nations
now at war.
"They do not feel the conviction Of
America that our mission is a mission
Of peace, and that righteousness can
not be maintained hs a standard in
the midst of arms. They do not real
ize that back Of all our energy we are
a body Of idealists much more ready
to lay down our lives for thought
than dollar.
Rulers, not public opinion, brought
about the present war, Mr.. Wilson de-
clared.
Il thank God there is no man in
the United States who has the auth
ority to bring on war without the con-
sent of the nation" he said.

AS he started to pass me he turned
and pushed his hand against my
breast and fred. was sitting in q
rocking chair and did not Sc the gun
IN his hand. As ran from the room
] heard another shot. That is the

her husband took his life in this city

Ia years old and we were always hap
py and contented until about three
weeks before the shooting. Then he
began to accuse me of things and l
ceased to care for him.
"The morning Of the shooting, after
he returned from breakfast, he con-
tinued to urge me to return to him.
We did not fuss. l told him we could
not live happily together and said mo-.
Finally, after another refustl, he arose
and started apparently to leave the
room. l was seated in rockingham.
As he came abreast of me he suddenly
turned and pushing his hand close to
my right breast shot. l had no sus-
picion he was going to do anything of
the kind then, though he had threat
ened to take my life several times be-
fore.
"As soon as he shot / jumped to my
feet and fed from the room. AS l
passed through the door heard an
other shot. think 1t was the one he
killed himself with. He did not shoot
at me but once and did not shoot at
the baby. ! do not know what / am
going to do in the future. | have
made no plans. The gun was one he
