 The more the professional hyphen- ate, like the professional politician, Is studied, the clearer become the mo- tives which move both in their politi- cal capacities. The question of the racial origin of a voter is never in volved in the study an intelligent voter gives a stated candidacy. This country delights in the various racial celebra- tions which are annually held by citiz- ems of foreign birth or extraction This community delights in them, and, when carried out upon a large scale, decorate the homes and business places in their honor. It Is only when 1t is proposed by the professional re- presentatives of any race in this coun- try that our national policies shall be dictated from abroad that Uncle Sam straightens himself up to his full height and says.

Awakening The Wrong Passenger
(New Haven Journal-Courter.)

(New Haven Journal-Courter)
 It was a mistake to prod Victor l.. Berger, a native of Germany, a citizen of this country and the editor of a newspaper in Milwaukee devoted to socialism. Those who thought they were waking up hyphenate, found to their enlightenment they were walk ing up patriotic American citizen, who recognizes but one government and one flag and that the government and flag of the United States
 MT. Berger quite understands, as many more of us do, the natural and Creditable love one has for the country from which his fOrbears sprang. He understands the emotions of the re- presentatives of all nationalities and the tugging they feel at their hearts when they consider the belligerents engaged in this monstrous war, "but here they have made their homes', he says. Here their children have been born. Here their future lies. Their material and sentimental bonds are stronger here than to any other land" Then this: If 1t were not so utterly fatuOus, a fouler blow could not be

It is going to demand that the men in Washing ton who represent the American peo- pie act and act quickly in their inter- est Otherwise the nation might as well give up all hope for the future.
 Public opinion is now forming. The railroad brotherhoods, the railroad presidents, and the American Con- gress will be tried by the final deci- sion of that opinion. The wisdom and justice of President Wilson will be tried. He has studied the situation at close range and his message to Congress yesterday tersely sums up the whole case. The legislation he recommends is as impartial as the mind of man can make 1t. He repre- sents neither the brotherhoods or the presidents. He pleads for the American people. It is now up to Congress to act. The time is short; but if that body of law makers de- cides to do the right thing and is on the verge of completing legislation that will prevent this nationwide strike, the railroad men must allow this to be done or else suffer at the hands of public opinion, the worst enemy man or an organization can reached the point where the rights of it's people must be respected, re- gardless of whose quarrel IS on.

so some sat in buggies. some, in

Interrogatores and answers SINH
lar to these were exchanged on
Tuesday afternoon when the fury
of the storm had spent itself. Not
few of the older people maintain
that they have never seen a more
severe storm in the Monterey sec
ton, and they are probably not
far wrong. 1t combined all the
features that tend to excite fear
and do damage rain, hail, Wlnd'
thunder and lightning.
The storm, which seemed to be
central right here, gathered slowly,
tho clouds closing in over the town,
and in a few minutes Main street
assumed q canal appearance, the
rain pouring down in binding
sheets, accompanied by a liberal
sprinkle of hail-stones and more or
less wind.
Immediately in town no damage
was done, though the electrical
feature of the storm was unusually
severe. Just north of town, how
ever, in A. C. Judy's pasture field,
G. G.. Hansel had a valuable Jersey
cow killed by lightning, and J. W.
Mackey last a fine registered bull.
They were standing under a small
hickory tree when killed. James
A. Trimble had two hay-stacks set
on fire in his meadow south of
town, both being damaged but not
entirely burned.
The storm was more violent here
than elsewhere, in fact, other near
by neighborhoods escaped even a
sprinkle and hay-making was not
interrupted. The little streams
that have their sources here at the
divide were sufficiently swollen,
however, and carried with them
such debris as to indicate deludge
of huge proportions.
The storm followed a forenoon OF
intense heat, one of the warmest
days of this humid season, but
brought relief during the evening
and night.
Sympathy is felt for those who
suffered pecuniary loss, the heaviest
being sustained by Mr.. Hansel, the
cow lost by him being one of the
best in the county.
