Who Was to Blame?

Between the censorship necessarily
exerted along the Mexican border and
the conflicting reports from Mexico
itself. it would be unsafe to make any
predictions at this stage as to the out

TOO, that before long there will be
some radically divergent explanations

along the Mexican boundary and the

Gaily. no more, nor less, but the man
who will be drinking that pint of beer
next year will not be the same man

vessels-above all, his brain-will be
a little less efficient, or perhaps much
less efficient, because of that daily
pint. And the pint of next year will
act upon a man somewhat degenerated

We Hunt for Cure.AIls.

There is a respectable number Of
people in this country who arc appar-
emily obsessed with tho idea that the
sole solution Of all our political prob
lens lies in a commission Of some sort.
At least a dozen national commissions,
to be entrusted with the various affairs
Of state, have been advocated in the
past five years. The people who argue
for these commissions would reduce
Congress to tho position Of a legisla-
tive drafting bureau, shorn Of volition
and responsibility. They seem to
think that the moment a political
question is referred to one Of these
commissions it is reduced to an exact
science. But politics is not, nor can it
ever be, an exact science. Perhaps
that Is why politics is called the queen
of the sciences" II these propa gan
Gists for a commission form of our
national government would turn their
attention to the election of a higher
class of representatives their energies
would be better employed, and there
would be less danger to the republican
form Of our government
The remedy for our evils never will
10 found In socialistic cure -alls nor in
automatic provisions. Tie brain Of
succeeding generations cannot escape
its responsibilities; it must cope with
the developing problems Of govern
ment. The yeast of control cannot al
ways be inserted in the general dough
here and there; it must work through
out the whole lump and leaven it with
equality and justice. The personal
lieberty" Of one must not be allowed
to trespass on the rights Of others.
Commissioners are as human as con-
gressmen. and they are just as prone
to loaf on thee job" and to be biased
by conditions, developments, or en-
vironments. When we go far from the
fundamentals on which our govern
ment was based by the fathers, we pay
we'll for our experiments and our pre-
SYMPTOMS.

Mayor Eldridge of Eastport has
notified City Marshal Harry Follis and
his officers to have all places Of bust
ness in the city closed Sundays after
this date, and this will include places
where the attention of the mayor had
been called that card playing was be-
ing carried on, especially Sundays. The
Blue Laws will not include the closing
of hotels and restaurants, and it is ex-
pected the news stands will be open
for an hour or more so that residents
can secure papers, but it will put the
lid on all cigar and tobacco shops. This
rule was tried last summer for short
time and met with the approval of
some. but there were others who
missed their favorite loafing place. II
is understood that church members will
attend the Monday meeting Of the
council with a petition in favor of the
Sunday closing, but Mayor Eldridge's
orders went into effect Sunday.
