Economists say that these figures would be enormously

agricultural and Industrial activities.
Mexico has something over $1,000 miles OF railroads,
but cheap fuel is the countrys most serious need. Her
petroleum output. however, ranks next to that Of the
United States and Russia, but recent controversies over
the concessions to American and British capitalists have
prevented It's use for the general development OF other
resources.
According to the census of 1910, 10 per cent OF the
population were pure white, 43 per cent mixed bloods,
and 3S per cent were indians.
The republic of Mexico consists of 81 states, two terri.

are like the federai-diyided into three parts, the exec.

are supposed to be elected by the people, and the judic.

But there Is a good.sized opinion that

much OF the talk going the rounds,
one of the principal efforts Of the lead.

after his long service conclude that he
had had the honor as long as any one
man should have 1t and step down and
out, leaving the party free to elect
Watson without stirring up any bad
feeling. That has been suggested to
McGraw; but he hasn't given any sign
nor spoken any word that might lead
to the belief that he thinks well OF the
suggestion.
Mr.. watson's prime interest in the
Democratic ticket Is conferred on John
j. Cornwell, the party's candidate for
governor. Watson and Cornwell have
been political and personal intimates

played the game together, and Wat

possible "for the good OF the party"
And these same men add that Nc.
Graw has had the honor for many
years and ought to quit satisfied.
There may or may not be a contest
at Parkersburg, and the committee
may elect McGraw or 1t may elect
Watson. Party leaders here admit
very frankly that they do not know,
but they are buzzingly interested Just
now in discussing the probabilities.
John J. Cornwell, the gubernatorial
candidate, will be at the meeting, and
1t is expected that he will influence
the committee In naming for state
chairman the man he wants to manage
the campaign. But even In this mat.

ex-senator Watson would like to have

n LAY Is as essential to health as IS work.
A man needs to be shaken up occasionally. He
needs to have his heart beat faster and his face
flushed at times.
He needs often to breathe deeply and to exert himself
to the utmost.
Play does all Of these things. Furthermore, play takes
one out into the open air and sunshine. 1t takes a man
away from his work and worry. 1t trains mind along
with muscle. 1t develops judgment and will power and
makes a bigger, better, longer, happier life.
Why not play a little while today?
Do not look upon a play spell as a life preserver, some.
thing to be seized only in a sudden breaking up Of the
