ed by means which will not bear the
light Of day. so that its wealth and
ITS opportunities have largely been
sold to foreigners, whose only interest
IN Mexico is the interest of exploiters.
In this connection the American peo-
pie should be reminded that there Is no
warrant in international law nor In
morals for the idea that it Is the duty
OF any nation to assert by force of arms
the privileges of it's citizens domiciled
IN foreign country Our treaties guar
antee them equal treatment with the
actual citizen of the country in which
they dwell or carry on business, but
for the benefit of individuals without
regard to the conditions under which
they may find themselves In trouble.
The idea that military force must be at
the service of exp1oiters is one which
has borne serious consequences.
No Movement Backward.
In short, we should remember that
revolutions never move backward. and
that the regime of Porfirio Diaz is as
impossible for Mexico as that Of Louis
XIV would be for the France of today.
DR.. John W. Slaughter of Philadel-
phia formerly of the University Of
Michigan. and DIR. Leo S. Rowe of the
University of Pennsylvania-both men
said to be close students of conditions
in Latin American countries-have

American concessions in Mexico.

Make War on
Flies: Ward
Off Disease

In order to make this community a
better place to live in, we must declare
war on the house fly at once. II we do
not slip up on him and strike the first
hard smashing blow, he is going to
come at US In overwhelming numbers.
How may we successfully fight the
fly? By destroying or removing his
breeding place, the manure pile, re-
moving all garbage and making the
privy vault fy-proof, and by keeping
our yards and alleys clean. We must
screen our houses and use the swatter
and sticky fly paper without let-up.
Where Is the fly born?' In filth, gen.
orally in horse manure and outhouses,
sometimes in the flesh of dead and rot
ting animals-never in any clean,
wholesome place. The life cycle Of
the fy's birth runs about ten days
from the time the egg is laid until the
mature insect is born. A maggot is
hatched from the egg. The maggot be-
comes pupa Ia state corresponding
to the tadpole state in frog life), and
the pupa becomes the mature fly that
helps to make life miserable for US in
warm weather. -,.

He Breeds Disease.

What does he do in these places of
exploration? He wipes his feet on the
food, bathes in the milk, or browns in
It, and annoys the sleepers. If there
is sick person around, consump-
tive Tor instance, he alights on the
patients lips or invades his sputum
cup and takes on a load of deadly
germs. This he distributes on the
food, on the baby's lips or on your own
if you are not very careful to shoe
him away.
A busy deaths head is the house fly.
He killed more American soldiers in
the Spanish-American war than the
bullets of the Spaniards, and was the
direct cause Of much OF the typhoid
fever in the United States last year
He cannot be ignored safely.
The only way this town can effec
tually exterminate flies is to make an
organized effort. Our municipal au
,thorities and health officers should
map out campaign Immediately and
enlist the active aid of everybody In
the community.

Flies Live In Filth.

Where does the fly live? Where
there is filth, and there is nothing too
filthy for the fly to eat. He eats clean
food also, but his special delight seems
to be wallowing In filth, then buzzing
into the house and wiping his feet and
wings on substances you are about to
eat. Watch him and see for yourself.
Think Of the most sickening, dis
gusting places where you have seen
flies. Think of them until your palate
is light and the pit of your stomach
ticklish. For If you think hard
enough about this dangerous, nasty
insect pest you will help fight his
whole tribe with all your might.
The fy's favorite place of residence
is in the manure pile, the privy-vault,
the garbage can and the spittoon. But

Judge L. c. Smith burned his
bridges behind him in 1900 when
he wrote the following letter to
II. l.. Remmel, then a candidate
for governor against jeff Davis,
and first lord in waiting to Pow
ell Clayton, Republican boss of
Arkansas. He offered to sell
his political prospects for even
less than 4 mess Of pot-lieker.
Arkansas does not approve of
a man who slips in and out of
one party until he wears the
hole slick. Democracy will pass
upon Judge smiths DETECTION in

Little Rock, Ark.
Dear Sir
| understand that Jeff Davis
has offered a reward of $500 if
you can show letter from a
democrat that expects to vote for
you OH the Bird day Of September
next for governor. Take him up,
and read this letter from the first
stump (if it be true). The un-
dersigned Is life long democrat
and expects to cast his vote for
II. L. Remmel on the Bird day of
September next, and if he pays
the reward do a christian act
give it to tie churches at your
first disposal. | viii not enter
into details why | am opposed to
Jeffie, but this will give him an
other opportunity to jump onto
another democrat IN order to be
elected governor.
