THE battle CRY OF PEACE.

US q safe bet now that 1915
will mark the passing of the Progress
sive party. Both Progressives and
Republicans are showing a willing
ness to get together. They both
hold their National Conventions in
Chicago June 18th and according to
all indications the Ratchet will be
buried at that time. There is no
reason why this amalgamation should
not be affected. Both factions of
the Grand Old Party carried their
point The Bull Moose sent Taft
back to his alma matre, while the
Republicans made possible hunting
smoke of battle has passed we real
ize what a mess we made. And but
for the European War the realiza
ton would be brought home much
more impressively. No doubt of
that, gentle reader. War orders have
kept us from starving, and we
should now prepare for the days of
peace. If we fail to use the wheels
in our brain now, the wheels of our
factories will cease to revolve later.
Well get together, then we'll make
our little changes.
Mr.. Wilson is an honest man, sim
cere no doubt, and scholarly. Just
the man to make good class room

let's keep up the generous spirit,
boys, and give Wilson back to Prince
ton. Are we mistaken, Harvard, or
did we hear you ask for Teddy?

LETTER FROM HIS MOTHER
SAVES MAN FINE in ALTON

The love of mother many miles
away yesterday obtained freedom for
John Munger, who was tried in the
Police Court in Alton on a charge
of disorderly conduct.
When called to the stand to an
swer the charge, Munger turned to
the Judge and said:
"Well, whatever l may have done,
l have a good mother"
He then handed the Judge a letter
from his mother, with request that
the court read it. The judge then
read aloud the letter, which advised
her son to be temperate and to asso-
ciate only with good companions.
The letter contained several passa-
ges from the Bible, and asked the son
to read them every day.
"Read that letter ten times to-
day. That is your sentence. Now

finished reading the letter.-St.

A Military Funeral.

Fort Myer is at the entrance Of
the National Cemetery at Arlington
and troops of the garrison act as es-
cort at military funerals. Once seen,
the solemn ceremony is never quite
forgotten. CHANGED to be at the
garrison a few weeks ago when the
burial of a brigadier-general took
place with full military honors. When
the funeral cortege entered the mill
tary reservation, cannon doomed out
a solemn announcement of the APP
proach. Distant strains of grand
dirge came family up from the val
ley below and mingled with the sa-
Lutte fired by the battery at stated in
tervals. Nearer and nearer it came,
until the broad avenue under trees
brilliant In autumn foliage, the fun
eral cortege broke into view. II
was led by the mounted band and
hundreds of cavalry and artillery
men on finely caparisoned horses.
At the gate OF the cemetery a halt
was made and the great military es-
cort spread into semicircle. In
the background was the row Of can
non from which the salute had been
fred, the smoke still rising In soft
curling clouds. The band played an
impressive military dirge. The gilt

Gen. Huerta is no more. Carranza,
the man recognized as the president
of Mexico refused to allow his re-
xaaias to be buried in the country OF
his birth. Huerta may have been
murderer, a cut-throat and thief. He
would be a rare specimen OF Mexi-
can were he not. One of his last
acts, however, when the chill OF
death was driving the warmth from
his body, when the few that loved
him had gathered to shed their tears
of sorrow, was to forgive his enc
mics. That shows the character OF
man this proud whiskered Greaser
really is who refuses to allow the
BODY of one of his race to be deposit
ed in the earth of his native land.

this evening, so glorious, so heart

EXPORT TRADE IN
FRANCE ON BOOM
SHIPMENTS TO U. s. FALL OFF
BUT 10 PER CENT IN
SPITE OF WAR.

Paris,-That the French export
trade is not paralyzed by the war,
and that in some instances France is
exporting more products than in
peace time. is a curious and unex-
pected situation indicated in recent
reports of the Minister of Finance.
While France is buying in the sum
this year OF about two billion francs
from the United States, the money
value of her exports to the United
States have not fallen off more than
10 per cent. The United States is
Frances second best customer, at
present, with England her best. The
war merely seems to have changed
i'm many cases the accustomed COM
mercial channels. For instance, a
Frenchman wished recently to buy
twine in the United States for use in
the Southern vineyards to hold up
the vines. Because of the lack of
freight space In ships from New
York, and his hurry to secure posi-
tive delivery, he cabled to an Ameri-
can firm in Manila, asking that the
Irvine be forwarded direct from there
1t is in the expectations of France
to the United States that may seem
some odd phases of war business.
Thus, on a ten-month's basis, for
table fruits her 1913 expectations
were 2,77$,0o0 francs whereas for
the present year France sold to the
United States in the sum Of 7,1S7,0O
francs. France sold to the United
States 3,1s7,O00 francs worth of
and soaps, an increase
of 1,237,000 francs over 1918. Her
sales of milk, butter and cheese have
increased from 1,727,000 francs in
1913, to 2,7S7,00O francs for the
first ten months of 1915. Her human
hair sales are practically the same
this year as in other years, being 1 .
25S,000 francs. Her wine sales are
almost normal, at 5000 francs.
In the effort of her people to make
up for the enormous import bill, her
sales of artificial flowers and fruits
have jumped to 5,135,000 francs a
sum almost twice that of normal
years. The same fact holds good
for fancy fans, buttons, brushes and
toys.
A striking fact OF comparison is
brought out in automobile sales.
France bought s70,401,00O francs
worth OF automobiles and motorcy-
cles during the first ten months of
This year, as against 4 5000 francs
in 1913, and she is selling to the
United States 2,461,000 francs
worth.
While France is buying twenty
lines as much grain from the United
States as normally, she is sending
10 the United States twice as much
seed grain as in 1913, or in the sum
Of nearby 100000 francs.
Altho France is buying twenty |
lines as much leather goods from
he United States as in peace years,
she is nevertheless, exporting to the
United States 100000 francs more |
If the same goods than she usually |
loes.
