Words.

Words are used for various purposes ito evade issues. to put people to sleep, to break up homes, to present literature and to conceal ideas. Moth ing exceeds like words.
 Words are used in speeches, debates and stories. Massed in serried groups in newspapers and text books they pre- went people from learning anything Last words are most effective and are employed exclusively by women and prominent citizens who are dying.
 Words are nothing in themselves, but only in their relationship to other words. It is the system of putting them together that counts. Most words are like unorganized militia: In war the mortality among them is fearful. They never win battles. When words are found in regular army style, how ever, disciplined and experienced, they are likely to be invincfble.-Judge.

Mexican Outlaws
Pass Through City

A troop" train passed through
Ashland Sunday on the Southern Pa
cific line. But it was headed north
and the troop" was a carload OF
Mexican outlaws, horse thieves and
other belligerents moving north in a
steel-barred car to McNeils Island.
In the car was one American, a
former Western Union lineman, who
had forsaken his wearisome, plodding
work with its many ups and downs
for the lurid promises of Villa; and
now he rides on the cushions.
The rest of the crew were, for the
most part, Mexicans from among Vii
las cohorts who have been appre-
hended during the past year in depre-
dations across the border.
They came directly from one OF
the federal prisons near the border
and are supposed to be moving to
make room for more in the prison
and perhaps as result of Uncle
Sans efforts to shake off all impedi-
ments in the war zone.
