in espousing the cause of the present
Administration 1t does so In the be-
lief that it Is choosing the best avail
able means Of aiding the cause of real
democracy. It would seem that Presi-
dent Wilson, in spite of regrettable
leaning toward too much prepared
ness, will nevertheless be much more
moderate in his program than Mr..
Hughes. His past actions, contrasted
with his opponents words, would in
dictate that he is the more likely to
keep out of the European war. And
ii Mexican Intervention must come he
is more likely to conduct it with a
view to preserving the rights of the
citizens of that unhappy country, as
we'll as our own. Altogether, it would
seem that the cause of liberty and JUS
tice will be the better served by sup.
porting Mr.. Wilson and such candi-
dates of the Democratic party as are
in accord with him.-The Public.

cAAuTAUQUA OPENS SATURDAY

Since 1907, nine years ago, with one
exception, the Chautauqua has been an
annual event in this county. During
these years many eminent men and
women of the nation have visited us
and delivered their messages, and
musical artists have charmed us with
their song and instrumental music.
Who can measure the influence of
these assemblies on the community?
One may be close reader, but from
reading alone can never get the inn
preston that the spoken word by the
character himself will convey. After
hearing the various musical organiza-
lions Of the chautauqua for eight days,
the listener will learn to discriminate
in that line, even in case such party's
previous musical education has been
neglected. The influence of the chau-
tauqua is uplifting and makes for bet
ter things In life. It lessons the de-
sire for cheap and tawdry entertain
ment.

much information about the 1916 SEES
sion which opens Saturday night. Pro.

If our country had nothing worse to
be ashamed of than its military un-
preparedness, there should be good
hopes of survival. The Army and
Navy bureaucrats who have spent the
large appropriations for military pur.
poses and yet claim we have nothing
to show for it would do well to should
er more of the blame and be less con-
spicuous among the fault-flnders.

The Mexican trouble is one Of the
most exasperating that could beset a
peace-loving people. In the face of &C.
tual hostilities the war department
does not wish to give up the strategic
advantages now held by the punitive
expedition; still holding this ground
will inevitably lead to formal war be-
ing declared by the defacto govern
ment of Mexico.
