W. L. Bouchard, editor of the Des-
loge Sun, was a Tuesday visitor in

pleasant call.
, friends wish him and his bride long

Miss Mamie Pyle of DeSoto arrived

cepted the position of stenographer in

and Clyde Morsey, formerly held by

The Times editor made his first visit
to the old town of Doe Run last Fri
day afternoon and attended the farm
ers' meeting at the home of Dan O'Sul-
Ivan, where a number Of farmers as
sembled and profitable meeting was
held. There are still number Of cit
liens in the old settlement, though of
the town itself but little remains. We
were informed that at one time Doe
Run was one of the largest and most
prosperous settlements in this part Of
Missouri, its inhabitants numbering
about $500 people. Its principal sus-
tenance now seems TO be remam-
hrance IL It's departed greatness,
though there are still several stores
doing business there
can take the nerve out Of your
tooth without you feeling it.

Our young friend, Gus Nations, who
is proof-reading en- the st. Louis
Globe-Democrat, was down the past
week visiting his mother, and made
The Times a pleasant call. Gus says
he came away from the Chicago con
vention with a resolution to support
Mr.. Wilson-he was an enthusiastic
Bull Mooser-but that he has since
concluded to vote for Mr.. Hughes. His
change Of mind is because he is op-
posed to Mr.. Wilson's foreign policy;
he thinks the President ought to have
precipitated war with Germany over
the Lusitania incident. In this he is
franker than most Republicans; he
thinks "thero are worse things than
war;" but then he has never witnessed !
war az close range.

When Mr.. Hughes criticises the rec
ord of the Administration the spOkes-
men of Mr.. Wilson cry: "What would
you have done?" They forget that it
is Mr.. Wilson and not Mr.. Hughes
who is on trial. They forget that
four years ago Mr.. Wilson criticised
Mr.. Taft and Mr.. Roosevelt through
out the campaign and that Mr.. Taft
and Mr.. Roosevelt defended their re-
spective records, instead of crying
"What would you have dOne? They
forget these things or they refuse to
confess them. They are trying to run
away from the record of the Admins
tratiOn and induce the people to fol-
low them down some by-path Of rhe-
tOrical hypothesis, all in the effort to
change the subject.
"By their fruits ye shall know
them" When Mr.. Hughes was Gov
ernor of New York he did not pay
political debts by filling the public
offices with unfit men. He did not
champion certain principles during his
campaign and repudiate them after
he entered office. AS Governor, he
did not resort to brave and beautiful
words as a substitute for firm and con-
siStent deeds. He was careful in his
use of words but he backed his words
with deeds. He did not promise what
he could not perform. He did not
plaster the people with compliments
they did not deserve. He was not a
rhetOrician, he was not flatterer, he
was not "tOO proud to fight" for labor
or for capital, for the strong or the
weak, when the right was on their
side.
Mr.. Wilson's spOkesmen seek to di-
vert attention from the attacks Mr..
Hughes is making upon the record of
the Administration by asking him:
"What would you do?" they are un-
consciously helping Mr.. Hughes. They
are recalling to the memory of the
people the record he made throughout
his two terms as Governor Of New
York 1t was then that he first said
public office shall not be a private
snap under my administration, and
made performance square with prom
ise. There is this about Mr.. Hughes
that makes hir so different from Mr..
Wilson: Hughes means what he
says" SO ii is that the campaign is
really a contest of character between
two men, with sincerity as the differ
entiating and deciding factor.

WabbIinQ Woodrow.

OppOrtunism has claims that every
statesman must respect. But never
has there been an oppOrtunist in the
White House of greater willingness
to change than the present incumbent.
The country feared it had placed pow
er in the hands of a doctrinaire school
master incapable Of bending. 1t finds
that it has a man of remarkable plas-
ticity of judgment, who one moment
stands for states rights and the next
for natiOnalsm, who one day is a pa
cifist, and the next is out-Shouting Col.
Roosevelt for arms and ships. who one
week is for barren neutrality and
the next for war in behalf of general
righteousness, who one night is for
collective wage bargaining and arbi.
tration of industrial disputes and the
next is waving the flag of decreeing
wages up or down as the votes of the
larger number can be controlled

FIERY WORDS.

"Direct violations of a nations SOW
ereignty cannot await vindicatiOn in
suits for damages-the nation which
violates those essential rights must be
checked and called to account by di-
rect challenge and resistance. -
From Woodrow Wilson's speech ac-
cepting the Democratic nomination for
presidency.
BUT
The American flag is still unsaluted
at Vera Cruz.
Villa is still uncaptured and unpun-
ished.
Carranza still slaps the United
States.
There still has been no accounting
for American lives and property de-
stroyed In Mexico.
The whole question of reparatiOn for
invasion of American rights by vari-
Gus warning nations is still sleeping
in a pigeonhOle.
AND
All the direct challenge and resist
ance" noticeable to the average Ameri-
can is included in a series of notes
said to possess high literary quality, If
nothing else in particular.

WILSON CONSISTENT ONLY
IN HIS VACILLATION.

AS it is with war;" so it is
with intervention" President
Wilson has again and again said
he would not intervene" in
Mexico. AS a matter of fact
he has intervened continuously
= but as he never fol-
lowed any policy of either inter
ventiOn or nOninterventiOn with
any observation-disclosures yielding
at the critical moment to some
bandit chief of whom he became
fearful-bOth his spasms of in
terventiOn and his spasms of
nonintervention have alike been
entirely futile.-FrOm the speech

when was growing lad, and came
upon many words in my reading that

how to use dictionary, and the great
pleasure and advantage there might
be in the use of the dictionary.
Afterwards, when l went to the village

days. Now the most modern lima.

Menefin was standing in the At The foyer at Thorne's last Movies" Thursday night between

That night 1t was in the left SC tion, the second TOW back of the electric fan where a good breeze could fan the sleep out of my eyes long enough to allow me to look at the picture. But then my seat in the theatre is another story. as l started out to write about Joe Meherin. the popular Al aska representative of the J. A Folger & Co. tea. coffee and spice house.
 Joe. it seems, was as anxious to get into the show as I was, and was pushing through the crowd in order to get a good seat being evi- dently of the idea that Thorne's is the same as those Outside moving picture shows he is used to attend, ing. He bought his ticket as watched, and made a break for the entrance to the theatre proper, In aged to get by the eyer-wato htul Nick without being seen.
 And I guess that nobody would have collected Joe's ticket at all if he hadn't mistaken a young lady who was standing just inside the entrance for the ticket taker. For once inside, Joe tried to give his ticket to the young lady, and seemed very much surprised at her refusal to take it, begging her pardon in a very profuse manner. And of course the young lady laughed. which made Joc's face get radae. than ever. For he Is kinda bash full and wouldn't accost a young lady to whom he had not been properly introduced for anything.
 Joe's annual visit to Fairbanks is now about over, but he is al ready planning to return next year, He says that he may take in the new Tolstoi strike before continu- ing on his journey to the lower river camps and the Outside.
 Barley, Mel Sabin is one Of Wheat the responsible farmers And Rye. of the community And
 that he Is progressive in his ideas and in his attempts to do his part toward proving that the Panama Valley will one day be an agricultural country, is eyi- dencd by his desire to improve upon the produce now raised here and by his continued experiments along those lines.
