Only RumOr.-Last week while
this paper was left temporarily in
charge of the horse editor, he in
serted an item to the effect that we
had gone over to Hot Water
Springs to capture a $4,000 wild
ow. We beg to announce that our
horse editor is wrong. The $4,000
widow turned out to be plain
everyday widow with less than
5000 hidden away in an old teapot
on the top shelf of the pantry. We
had no proposition to make. As
editor of the Torchlight, we are
straight business. The drop from
$4,000 to 5000 was. little too
much for us.

everybody is thankful to Wilson for hav.
ing kept the country out Of the war. could
result in our going wrong in our calcula-

Wilson sentiment is quite general.
The Times has great deal Of respect
for the judgment Of Allan l.. Benson So
cialist candidate for1resident, who say,
after having spent 80 days in all part Of
the country, that Wilson will be re-
elected.
Benson's newspaper training makes
him competent Judge Of sentiment and
his opinion can be relied upon as abso-
lutely free from anything like the
prompting Of personal preference.
If Benson ever votes for anybody but
Socialist for president. it will be in
some election conducted like our primary
election was in the Twenty-frst ward
and somebody else casts Benson vote for
him when his back is turned
Benson says III Mr. Hughes is allowed

Wilson all that the president can't do for
himself"

It Would Have Been Much
Better Had They Permitted
Hughes to Remain at Home

Charles Evans Hughes became a can
didate for the presidency Of the Omteo
States at a most unfortunate time.
He is a man eminently qualified for
that high Office.
He is equipped in every respect for~the
discharge of the obligations that the
president must shoulder.
He is a big man and, in the language
of David Harum, sound as a dollar.
without spot or blemish
But he was nominated at a time when
the man could not be Charles Evans
Hughes.
He was made the candidate Of the
Republican party at a time that called
upon him for great personal sacrifice
the sacrifice of his whole personality.
He has gone about the country in the
role of politician and he is not a poll
tician.
He has been compelled TO stump the
country when he would much rather have
remained at home.

TRUTH BRINGS DELVERANCE.
No greater truth was uttered by
Christ than: eye shall know the
truth and the truth shall make you
free" This is an age of bondage, men
are in constant fear of losing out by
actions not approved by those who
are over them and allow themselves
to do wrong in order to keep in with
their employers.
God is truth. To know Him is to
understand what liberty is. Millions
of men are today plunged into a most
barbaTiC war because Of one mind
used by the devil to destroy, if posi-
BILE, all truth. Because they are ig-
noTant of God they are easy prey and
hell is let loose because one ruler
has deceived, the simple people.
God has spoken once and for all:
Thou shalt not kill" That settles
the war question.
The only way by which freedom
can come to the world is for the
knowledge Of the Lord to be spread
over all the world and there never
can be absolute safety until all man
controlled countries are brought into
proper relationship with their unseen
yet very present Ruler. You can't
get along without God. The day is
coming when all nations must be
merged into one kingdom, over
which the Messiah of Promise"
must rule under the supervision and
guidance Of God. Then only will OPP
preston cease; competition will
cease, too, for there will be no terri
tory to fight for, 1t viii all belong to

the one family. There will be con-
ditiOns under which no brotherhood
of man can be worked out perfectly;
we will all work for one another and
be real patriots.
There is now no real patriotism.
It is all bunk. My country is the
world and each one is my brother.
I never had any stock in the poets
twaddle about, 'Breathes there a
man with soul so dead who never has
said, This is my own, my native
land I am a citizen of the world
and recognize God as my ruler and
enjoy absolute liberty and peace be-
cause of it
The only way by which you may
become a citizen of the universal
kingdom is to conform yourself to
the laws of God. Fear God and keep
His commandments, for this is the
whole duty of man. speak the truth.

HORSES WELL MATCHED
Skill and Judgment Required to
Bring Them Together.
Color and Markings Are Not the Only
Desirable Observation-Disclosures,
Clean Movements Attract a
Purchaser.

Matching horses is an art and IL re-
quires some skill and Judgment to
bring together a pair OF horses that
resemble each other in all the char
acteristics sufficiently to work in har.
mony. In order to do this successfully
It is necessary to have more than the
color Of the animals in mind. While
It is desirable to have team OF
horses closely alike in color and mark.
ings, these are not the only character
istics
Action comes first when consider.
ing matching Of horses. Proper &C
ton, strong, clean, vigorous move
ments of the feet and legs attract a
buyer more quickly than anything else.
Style is required in the action of any
class of horses. Snappy, straight and
balanced movement Of the motive ap-
paratus, each animal standing up to
the bit in about the same way, makes
an attractive team. and is pleasing to
the eyes OF the buyer and of the man
who drives 1t.
In farm team strength and con-
formation might possibly be placed be-
fore action, at any rate it should
come second. A team i'll matched in
regard to strength and staying powers
is a mighty poor asset, as far as a
team is concerned. In selecting horses
to work against each other in a team
it is important to get them in general
10 arIxy
si6ie, good and strong behind, and
muscled well in the back and loin,
short and thick in the middle, with
muscles-not fat-beneath the hide.
Size to a certain extent may be
sacrificed for strength and conforma-
ton, but only within certain limits.
A difference of 100 pounds or so in
weight does not matter much when
pair is being matched up. but If much
more than that, the difference in size
will be too clear and detract from the
value of the team. Size is an impor-
tant matter, but It comes after
strength, and conformation follows ac
ton in relative importance.
Color comes last of all in the major
points to be taken into consideration.
A difference in color, however marked,
is among the least Objectionable fea.
lures Of team. Yet, strangely. some
horses are matched up so unlike in
action and temperament that the Whit
fletree Of one is always securing the
wagon wheel, while the other is draw.
ing ahead keen and strong to the bit.
The team is so unlike in strength and
conformation that one horse is tagged
out long time before the other shows
fatigue.
