Hopkinton, Dec. 13.-It has been an
nounced by President A. ST Clair
Mackenzie at Lennox College. that as
long as ne was president of the insti-
tuition every penny which he derived
from lecturing or other source outside
of his salary as president of the coll
lege, would re devoted to scholarships
for worthy poor children.
In making this announcement, Pres
ident Mackenzie stated there were in
We're extremely anxious for higher
christian education and because of
conditions over which they had no con-
troll, were deprived of the privilege.
There is need in this state, for a
vast number of scholarships and lin
surrendering portion of my earnings
as lecturer, l feel that i will be do
ing the most practical good that | can
with the money.
while my salary as president is
not extremely large, I feel that the
trustees of this college in paying me
that salary, expect me to devote my
whole time to the management of 1t
and ii the occasion arises where | can
earn additional money without neglect
ing my work in the Institution. that
money should be devoted to some prac-
teal good. In the past my earnings
from lectures and other sources has
been considerable and this money
properly administered will be the
means of paying for several young
peoples schooling.
Make Plan Perpetual.
1t is notIrny plan to pauperize the
young people but u do intend that
monies secured inthis way shall be
loaned to worthy young men and
young Women without interest, on
their PERSONAL note, and when they
have arrived at an age where their
earning power is sufficient to rem-
burse the college this shall be done
so that the money will be in perpetual
use.
This I trust is but foundation or
nucleus of u much greater sum q en-
dowment, the interest of which can be
used for similar purpose so that
worthy young men and young women
shall not beo deprived of an .oppor,
tunity of higher education which
will thereby increase their earning
capacity and benefit them for the
struggles of life
1t is understood that this is the first
time in the history Of Iowa that this
unique plan is original with the presi-

doubt be the result of considerable
good to the worthy young men and

Separator Patsntee Wins Appeal in
Suit Over Contract and Royalties.
Special to Times Republican.
Council Bluffs. Dec. 13.-The United
States circuit court Of appeals has Just
announced a reversal of the judgment
of the United States district court in
the litigation between the Lisle Man
ufacturing Company, OF Clarinda, and
E. r. Bailey, formerly the sales man
ager of the company. The Company
was manufacturing cream separator,
the patents of which were held by
Bailey. He held two contracts with
the company. one for his royalty and
one for his commission on sales.
MAY 20, 1907, Bailey entered into
contract with the William Galloway
Company. of Waterloo. for the sale of
L, 600 separators, and officers of the
Clarinda company objected to the pay
ment Of the full royalty to Bailey upon
this sale because of the reduced price
at which it was made After consid-
cradle negotiation new contract.
covering by its terms both the royal
ty and the commission to Bailey, was
entered into on June 4, 1907, and the
Company officials claimed a verbal
agreement with Bailey that while this
contract modified only the royalty to
be paid there was to be no commission
to Bailey on the Galloway sale. Bailey
claimed about $4,000 on his contract.
The company in turn filed cross pc
tition in equity. claiming the contract
under which Bailey was suing should
be corrected in such manner as to de-
feat the allowance of commissions on
the Galloway sale. This phase of the
matter was tried before Judge 7. c.
Munger during the last illness of Judge
aiSmith Mcpherson. and it was upon
this cross petition that Judge Munger
reformed the contract and found for
the Clarinda company.
The court of appeals now reverses
this decree and directs the court be-
low to proceed with Uhe trial of the
action originally brought, including the
accounting of the commissions. to de-
termine what portion of Bailey's claim
is due to him.

WHY I SHALL NOT VOTE FOR
WOODROW WILSON FOR
PRESIDENT

Four years ago the Democratic
spellb!nders, including MIR. Wilson,
travelled up and down this country
proclaiming that the high cost Of liv-
ing was due to the high tariff and that
with the Democrats in power and
free trade or low tariff policy in effect
the cost of living would be materially
decreased and especially would this be
true of sugar. The people took them
at their word and not only elected
Mr.. Wilson as president, but elected a
majority in both the House and SEN
ate. Certain free trade bills were
passed and while the tariff was not
removed entirely from sugar 1t was
arranged that ii was to be done pre-
vious to 1916. and what happened?
The cost of living. including sugar,
has increased and the Democrats.
with the most extravagant admins
tration this country has ever seen,
found themselves upon financial rocks
and in addition to putting a tax on
everything from chewing gum to real
estate mortgages, decided that the su-
gar industry still needed tariff and
The Julesburg grit-advocate., 1916-10-19

instead of free sugar we have just
what the Republican party has always
stood for. Now, either Mr.. Wilson did
not know what he was talking about
in 1912. or he and his party retained
tariff on sugar to meet financial
ends when we would be better off with
free sugar Gf their 1912 contentious
were true). In either case they have
not and are not living up to their
statements and promises.
am not questioning MIR. Wilson'S
truth and veracity, but l would like
to have him or some of his friends
explain why he is nominee for the
Office of President at this time, and
neither can we explain why Mr.. Bryan
is campaigning for Mr.. Wilson when
we remember that Mr.. Wilson openly
declared that one term was all that
q man should occupy the presidential
chair, and was elected with that as
one Of the planks of his platform. and
Mr.. Bryan quit the cabinet because
Mr.. Wilson was seeking the renomina-
ton. We have always believed that a
man should make good his pre-elec-
ton pledges, and in this respect Mr..
Wilson has failed.
Has he kept US out of war? When
our American warship in 1914 was
seized at Tampico and its officers and
sailors were thrown into prison by
Mexican officials. this nation was in
dignant, to say the least. The Presi-
dent, Mr.. Wilson. not only demanded
that they be released but that the
American flag be saluted as a partial
reparation for the indignity. To carry
out this demand, a fleet was sent to
Vera Cruz and the city was taken by
our soldiers with the loss of life to
both American soldiers and Mexican
citizens, and then the army was with
drawn. They went right in and
turned around and walked right out
again." and the flag was not saluted
but Pei AdPo tAot was lUl war;, duy-
way, Mr.. Wilson has never explained
why he subjected our boys to be killed
and Mexicans to be shot down or why,
having gone that far, our soldiers
were withdrawn until his demands had
been complied with.
A year later the quiet little village
Of Columbus, New Mexico, is raided
by band of Villaites, men, women
and children ruthlessly murdered and
property destroyed. President Wilson
sends the army at once to Mexico with
instructions to get Villa dead or alive.
1t seemed considerably like war to US
when every railroad was using every
extra bit of their equipment to get
our army and its equipment to the
border and every soldier and guard
was ready to do their part in the re-
venge of the blood spilled at Colum-
bus; to bring to justice Villa and his
