WHEN THE CANNON ROARED

While campaigning in Iowa
Speaker Cannon was once inveigled
into visiting the public schools of
a town where he was billed to speak.
In one of the lower grades an am
bilious teacher called upon a youth
full Demosthenes to entertain the dis
tinguished visitor with an exhibit
tion of amateur oratory. The selec-
tion attempted was Byron's Battle
of Waterloo" and just as the boy
reached the end of the first para
graph Speaker Cannon gave vent to
a violent sneeze. But hush, hark!"
acclaimed the youngster; "a deep
sound strikes like a rising knell.
Did you hear it?'
The visitor smiled, and a moment
later the second sneeze-which the
Speaker was vainly trying to hold
back--came with increased violence.

THE SMALL SHIPPER
CUTTING THE PRICE

James Collins, in this weeks
Country Gentlemen, hits the nail ex-
actly on the head, when he says that
fruit panics and lack of confidence
in the markets are usually caused
by small shippers who do not know
market conditions, and who rely up
on cutting prices to sell their fruit
rather than upon any ability in
craftsmanship When the price-cut-
ters get to work the car-lot buyer
gets panicky because he does not
know where it is all going to end.
He would be satisfied probably to
pay 25 or SO cents box more than
he is paying provided he knew that
this price would hold and that
cheapers fruit would not be dumped
into his market. When he gets
panicky he stops buying, and when
the price-cutter finds out that he
cannot sell at the price he has made
he cuts it still lower, getting the
panic himself.
The man who does this may be
your next-door neighbor and good
fellow; a good citizen by all the
rules commonly applied, but just the
same he is taking the dollars away
from you as truly as though he put
his hand in your pocket and took
your money. He ran his course In
California, but is now as extinct as
the great AUX in that country. Just
as long as you let him handle your
fruit on commission, or just as long
as you let him buy 1t cheaply he
will continue to do this same thing
to you and the rest of the growers
year after year. Buying 1t cheaply
he can sell it cheaply, and still make
a small margin or profit because he
packs it cheaply. Perhaps he even
pays you more than the Exchange
pays you for the very reason that
his pack is cheap. Just the same 1t
comes into competition with and
helps TO set the price for better
packed fruit, and il he was not in
existence the Exchange could pay
YOU dollars more than it can at
present. just because of this compe-
tition.-Florida Grower.

A nj 2 VALUE IN ORANGES

Orange juice as an aid to beauty
is the latest use that has been found
for the citrus fruit that crowns to
perfection only in Florida. Oranges
have been recommended as being ex-
cellent for the general toning of the
wholse system and now comes an ex-
pert on beauty hints who says:
Big globes of golden juice-or-
anges, when fresh and in this delect-
able state, are one Of beauty's great
est assets. They contain a number
of health-giving properties, and
health, of course, is the cornerstone
of beauty.
To begin with-and an orange is
an excellent thing to begin with
oranges are a very gentle laxative
and, when eaten regularly, keep the
whole system toned and regulated.
Babies are given a tablespoonful Of
orange Juice to relieve a congested
condition, but of course it is not
strong enough to act quite so on a
grown-up. Yet it helps wnderfully
to keep the entire system well oiled
and working.
Every morning before or during
breakfast squeeze out the juice from
an orange into a gless and drink it..
1t is soothing and delicious and will
sweeten the stomach and make it
ready to digest the breakfast. The
most delicious and one of the health
lest breakfasts you can eat is glass
of orange juice, toasted rolls with
pure fresh butter, an egg if you
choose and a cup of rich chocolate.
There is every vital element here for
you, to give you fat and strength and
brain.
Oranges are good for the complex
ion, simply because they tone the
stomach SO, and anything that acts
fayorably on this clears and i'm
proves the skin of the face. Some
opera singers drink glass or part
of a glass of pure orange juice be-
fore going on the stage to take part
in opera or concert. There is GER
tain astringent quality about them
that clears the voice and makes II
purer in tone.
The soothing effect on the stom-
ach is a good start for day of bust
ness or pleasure.
Strange how many persons in st
Petersburg, where oranges are plen-
tiful and cheap, do not eat oranges
They would be in much better
health if they would use more or
anges.
How about that beauty hint
which was published in many news
papers in the North, as boost fol
oranges? Such articles will stimu
late the use of oranges and thereb!
increase the market for growers Of
Florida st. Petersburg Times.

The succession of disasters that
have just come upon Southern Cali
fornia in the shape of snow storms,
freezes and torrential rains that did
damage running up into the millions
and destroyed hundreds of citrus
groves, is no matter for us of Florida
to exult over, for decent people are
always sorry for the misfortunes
that come upon other decent people.
But at least these troubles from
their refractory and uncertain eli
mate should take something of the
brag and arrogance out of the Cali
fornians when they are comparing
their citrus belt to ours.

Democratic primary. The committee

the law on the subject. 1t complied
strictly with the statute and it is

WISE WORDS ON THE
MEXICAN SITUATION

The New York Sun deals wisely
with our foreign affairs, in so far as
they relate to Europe. 1t deals wild
ly when it is considering Mexico.
1t perverts every phrase of the Presi-
dent. 1t misrepresents every action
taken 1t magnifies every crime
committed, and it is seeking,
evidently, to strengthen the demand
of the organized interests, centering
in New York, for armed interven-
ton in Mexico.
Armed intervention in Mexico is
the last resort of an outraged but
patient people. Mexico has for many
years been the scene of revolution.
1t has long been in the hands of
mere bandits. The force of violence
is gradually wearing out, and with
the support that recognition gives
to Carranza, there is reason to be-
lieve he will, within reasonable
time, be able to restore order and
assure protection to the lives and
property of peaceful and law-abid-
ing men.
That seems to be the fear of the
Jingoes in America. They want
armed intervention. They wish to
be re-established in control Of prop
erty, the title to which they have
not been able to vindicate. They
wish to exploit Mexico for the bene-
fit of these business interests. They
clamor not for dollar diplomacy,
but for the diplomacy of the bayo-
net.
Thoughtful men must deplore the
prospect of armed Intervention. 1t
involves us in innumerable Difficult
ties of foreign and of domestic
character 1t is not to be entered
upon light-heartedly. 1t is to be
avoided if patient diplomacy can Sc
cure protection of American lives
and property and the lives and
property of all foreigners.
If il cannot be avoided, then the
United States should go into Mexico
alone and go there to stay.
looking back fifty years. it is
plain that we made the mistake then
of exacting too little; mistake not
from our point of view primarily,
but from the point of view of the
whole Mexican territory We have
but to contrast the condition in
Mexico with that in California, with
conditions prevailing across the bor-
der line, and see what the American
spirit has accomplished and what the
spirit of unrest and belief in the
supremacy of force have succeeded
tries in the world.
We should do nothing to hasten
the President. We should do moth
ing to infame the public mind. We
should do nothing to promote the
purposes of partisan adventures.
No President has ever been false to
American interests, or afraid to fight
Tor American rights when fighting
became necessary; but there has
never been a President who has not
feared to make war, who has not
hesitated to ask of Congress the
right to make war.
III.
The opponents of the President
should present an alternative. Let
them offer a proposition declaring
war upon Mexico because of the
slaughter of American citizens. That
brings the proposition before the
people in a concrete form. in form
that cannot be evaded. We are for
war with Mexico or we are for
peace We are for peace now OF
for immediate war. We can declare
war Just as we'll in March or July
as in January: but when we hare de-
clared war we will look through

There is but one way for Demo-
Gratis of the simon pure kind to look

And the following from the same
paper is equally sound, true and to
the point:
1.-THE law gives the executive com
mittee of any political party the au-
thority to describe the terms upon
which the members of that party
may vote for party candidates. The
Democratic committee did nothing
