POLITICAL ADVERTISING

The position taken by many people
that a republican paper should refuse
advertising for the democratic party
and that a democratic paper should re-
fuse advertising for the republican
party is most absurd. -.
The newspaper is q public carrier. 1t
is in duty bound to print the speeches
and arguments of its political oppon-
ents. 1t is IN duty bound TO print the
advertisements offered.
In a recent address before one of the
the state press associations the presi-
dent asserted that he would not solicit
political advertising. This, too, is alb
surd. Political advertising may be
solicited with the same dignity that de-
partment store advertising may be SOL
icited.
The postal laws and regulations com =
pei the publication of all legitimate ad
vertising offered; all the publisher can
do is to print the advertisement deliv-
cred to him.

Il MEXICAN CRISIS

1t is reported that acting under ir-
structions from President Wilson the
American member of the joint com
mission in session at Atlanta City, are
if they have not already, about to pre-
sent stipulations to the Mexican com
missioners virtually to the effect that
the United States will Withdraw its
troops from Mexico only on condition
that Mexico undertake in good faith to
clear the northern part of its territory
of the bandits who are now menecjng
American interests and lives.
The situation has drifted along for
weeks without satisfactory results be-
ing reached. Further delays are intol-
cradle. The United States is under a
heavy expense in the maintenance OF
it's expeditionary force, without power
to act in self protection save within its
own territory. The Mexican govern
ment is evidently impotent or disinclin-
ed to suppress banditry in the northern
states and and outrages continue throu-
ghout that region virtually without
check or punishment. Impossible de
mands have been presented to this gov
ernmet through the commissioners in
session at Atlanta City, requiring i'm
mediate withdrawal OF the troops with
out guarantees. Further negotiations
along these lines can be of no possible
use and merely serve 10 prolong an un-
bearable situation.
AS at present understood, the Ameri
can proposition now is that if Mexico
cannot insure this country OF an effec-
tive administration IN the northern
states the United States must use its
own force to restore order. This would
be no less than intervention, which the
administration has Steadtastly sought
to avoid from the outset. 1t would in
volve a further invasion OF Mexico, and
the institution of veritabie warfare
against the brigands, against whom the
forces of the Carranza government APP
pear to be unable to make any Roadway
whatsoever. In all probability such a
course would lead to a state of war
with Mexico.
In all probability the American pro-
posal will be met by pleas for delay for
opportunity to consult the authorieties
at Mexico City. Long delay IS not
likely to be granted by this govern
ment, whose patience has already been
strained by the inability OF the Carran.
Ia government to appreciate this duty
toward the United States in the prem.
Uses. Further patience would almost
certainly be regarded as a sign OF
weakness, and advantage would be
taken of it to prolong still further q
parley that can lead to no definite con.
c~lusion save under the specific assur
ance of action by the United States,

THE G HOUR LAW

On the eve of leaving New York for

of the failure of the conference be-

the meaning of the SO called Adamson
eight hour law:
"The situation is closed as far as
we are concerned. We are not at all
alarmed. We know that President
Wilson intended we should have. We
know the explanation he made to
our 600 chairmen in the White House.
We feel confident that IL the present
law docs not give the eight hour day,

COUNTY OFFICIAL PAPER
Entered at the Post Office atPicrre, South Da
kota. as mail matter of the second class.

Those who have ridiculed the Ad-
amson law are getting much pleasure
out of the ruling of the Kansas City
Judge who sustained the petition OF
the railroads for an injunction re-
staining the government from en-
forcment of the law. If the action
OF Judge Hook were understood no
y would find comfort in it. He
simply acted quickly that the supreme
court Of the land. the court OF last
resort, might get quick action, that
it might act before time for the law
to become effective. He did not go
into the merits of the contention,
simply pushed it along and 1T would
have been pushed any way. The
whole thing will depend on how the
supreme court views the matter.
Administration officials are confident
the law viii De upheld.

The federal investigation into the
high cost Of living in Chicago seems
to have uncovered the fact that great
quantities of foodstutfs are being
held in a manner that is we'll nigh
illegal, but now it is announced there
will be no court hearing of the mat
ter before January. Ten chances to
one the proposed action will drag
until prices drop and there will 30
longer be the crying need of action.
However, the agitation may have q
deterrent effect in the future.
