THE DEVIL WILL
NOT COME WEST

become a huge and monumental
joke is evident. That the foreign
policy of our government in Mexi-
CO has long been the subject of
ridicule and burlesque in the
seats Of all foreign governments,
is well known.
Now that same spine'ess policy
has been let loose on the labor
question.
Watchful waitino-thouGh un-
certain FOR a time what the word
watchful meant, It is now known
that the watch was simply to
find ont when the favorable mo-
ment had come to run.
Watch, wait, wabblc and with
draw.
Fifty voars from now would it
not be n circus to attend an old
soldiers Reunion, and hear the re.
miniscences Of the veterans Of
the late war in Mexico? Their
remembrances of heroic exploits
would partake something of the
character of those of one veteran
Of the Civil War. He was called
upon to give his experience in the
killing Of the enemy, and while
many of his comrades were able
to give an account Of some en-
gagement in which they had
killed from one to a dozen Of the
enemy, this particular veteran
failed to find. stored up in the
treasury of his memory an oc-
casion, where he was absolutely
sure that he mad killed even one.
But at the first Bull Run he said.
there was a rebel after him and
he never found out whether his
pursuer had died from exhaust
ton or ut.
We must now give up the mot
toes that we were taught to ho-
nor in our school-boy days. In.
stead of using the phrase that "a
live coward is better than two
dead heroes" in d~erision, we
must now observe it as a rule of
action. To contend to the con-
trary, in my opinion a live coward
is Of no use either as a decora-
ton or for example. A whole
army Of them would lose the
fight.
A hero that has died irfa good
cause achieves the honor of not
having lived in vain, and his eX-
ample will live and flourish in the
memory of mankind.
This hating v~acillating policy
IN MoXico, has even changed the
meaning Of words. We have
been taupht By Weheter's die
tiorgry that war was where soldi-
ers Of one country were shot at
by the enemy. Our soldiers have
beer slaughtered in MeNico in
prca cr numbers than in the
Spanish war. Still In this new

Emma and Katherine Brandt sang a
duet Don't Bite the Hand That Is
Feeding YOU giving a good story in
the song. The matter Of purchasing a
piano occupied a portion Of the even
ing, two good instruments having been
sent TO the school for approval. The
ladies are trying to get the very best
kind of an instrument and are using
careful judgment and wisdom in their
selection. Business matters were rou-
tine in nature and then followed a time
of sociability when refreshments were
served.

Miss Cleland gave interesting sta
tistics showing the very large foreign
population of the principal American
cities. many of the eastern cities hav
ing a larger foreign population than
the capitals of the countries from
which the immigrants originally come.
The question that confronts America
in its relation to the foreigner is d
serious one and Miss Cleland says that
unless the foreigner is Americanized,
the foreigner will Europeanize Amer
lea. Real steps are taken by the
government looking to the care of the
foreigner and committees on citizen
ship are doing effective work along
these lines. But most important of all
the means that are being used, accord
ing to Miss Cleland, is the personal
element that enters into the work
among them. American people must
feel an interest in the foreigner, must
make of him a friend and lead him
into right paths. This is work that
could well be taken up by the women's
clubs of the country and made their
special interest with results that
would be far reaching
Mr.. Hill spoke of the work of the
night school, the largest number of
pupils in which are foreigners who
| are anxious to prepare themselves to
! better handle their Jobs" In the To-
! cal school 23 nationalities were rep
| resented during the past term, with
| "a occupations taught, the total en-
rollment being 529. He spoke of the
| great benefits that the foreigner gets
from the night school, not only in
! structing him in the use of the Ian
| guage of the country of his adoption,
! the customs of that country, the ele-
ments of the work that he is engaged
in, but brings in the personal element
that is so much desired in the educa-
ton of the foreign born citizen. The
benefit is not alone to the foreigner
but to the community at large, making
! of better citizens being the chief in
terest in the school.
