in the city, the deputy sheriff, Wat
kins. was called from the picture show
and the work started. So quietly was it
conducted that it was almost over be-
fore the large festival crowd began
to take cognizance of the happenings.
The subsequent hearing was short
the offenders being fined total Of $500
and released. There was considerable
rash comment expressed from every
source. Some stated that local mer-
chants, enraged at the fact that the
carnival was allowed to show on Sec
ond street, had sent for the officers.
Some stated that the local officers
should be condemned for not taking
action, etc. Be that as it may, the raid
took place and Is over now and the less
said the better. To such readers the
case at Davenport now might be read.
In that city for some time a bootleg
ging case has been up and as yet It
has not been decided whether the CITY,
the county, the state, or, the federal
government should take it up. In an
swer local attorney stated that the
officials should enforce all laws, re-

under. In reply it might be said that
no information had been filed at any
time.

A Profitable Monkey.

An Italian organ grinder possessed
a monkey which he worked" thru the
summer months. When the cool days
came his business fell off, and he dis
continued his walks and melodies. An
Irishman of his acquaintance offered
him dollar for the privilege of keep
ing and feeding the little beast. The
bargain was made for a month.
Great curiosity filled the mind OF the
Italian, and at last he went ostensibly
to see his pet, but really to find out
what possible use Pat could make OF
the monkey.
The Irishman was frank. It's loike
this" he said. "Oi put up pole in
me back yard, with the monkey on the
top. Tin or twelve thrains of cars

three or four good games and ono Of
the most important games Of the year
will be played in the western part Of
the state. All in all the dope will have
is most prominent airing Of the year
following the games of this week and
definite line will be available on sew
eral of the supposedly strong teams Of
the state
In the section next to the Mississippi
the games to be most largely watched
are Iowa City and Fairfield, Daven-
port and Burlington, East Des Moines
and East Waterloo; sectional, played
on eastern territory, West Waterloo
and Dubuque. Keokuk and Fort Madi-
son, and Marshalltown and Grinnell.
A game which will be watched with a
large amount of interest is the initial
game of Clinton under it's new coach
ing system. Several of the teams
listed have been defeated but the high
schools at this time are beginning to
assume their midseason form and their
showing in the games of the week will
be largely the strength they will show
turnout the year. 1t is true some of
the teams are playing their first
games, but they have had long periods
of preparation and should be almost at
their best.
Davenport Reported Weak.
For certain reasons the Burlington
Davenport game is the feature Of the
week. Burlington met an unexpected
defeat in its first game. Davenport is
supposed TO be weak, the graduation of
the stars which have kept the team In
the first rank for two years and the
leaving of coach Nixon being large
change for one year. Davenport also
has a schedule which will test the
strength of any team and on the games
it plays will depend some of the figures
Of the state championship.
In the central part of the state AL
cona-S Spencer and the Ames-Fort
Dodge games show the best The
former is a battle of close rivals in a
restricted territory while the second
game will tend to tell what the Fort
Dodge team can do. the Ames team,
Willie not being strong, being an eleven
Of we'll known merits. The LeMars-
Sioux City game will hold the atten-
ton of the western part Of the state
as we'll as of elsewhere for the tip has
gone forth that Sioux City is strong.
Sheldon and Sibley and Red Oak and
Corning also are good games.

The Pleasantville press. (Pleasantville, N.J.) 1912-1929, 1916-03-04

The trouble with President Wilson
as an advocate of preparedness or any
other policy is that the people do not
give him credit for sincerity. Fol-
more than a year the White House
was giving stories of "acute crises"
which were regularly succeeded by
diplomatic triumphs". After a yeal
of that sort of thing, people were nat
urally not in a good frame of mind tc
take Mr.. Wilson seriously when he
went out on the stump and told then
that he "knew not what an hour may
bring forth. Most people, in then
childhood, learned the tragic story Of
the boy who called "Wolf, Wolff
when there is no wolf.

LAST LAP.

On March 4 Woodrow Wilson en-
tiers upon the last lap of his presi-
Dental course. The homestretch is
full of pitfalls and obstacles and he is
already nearly tuckered out with past
e~xertions. He does not dare to look
back and it is an unpleasant prospect
that stretches out before him. When
he began the course he was the"mask-
ed marvel" of national politics. To-
day the mask has slipped way off to
one side and he is seen for what he
is, a man with no fixed convictions
who is willing to play with the most
sacred of national affairs, the SUI
preme court and the foreign relations,
in order to obtain a personal political
benefit.
Under these circumstances it is
small wonder that Wilson has lost his
stride as he enters the last quarter
of his presidential urse MINDED
and weakened, he hopes with desper-
alton for some unexpected piece of
luck to help him through. His sup
porters realize that nothing else can
save him. Henry Watterson has
lately said, eff Wilson's luck does not
desert him, he will re reelected. But
a president who looks for luck in
stead of clinging to character to give
him success is in a bad way.
