reelection of President Wilson TO the
women's vote, cast for him because "He
kept US out of war;" but we believe as
many, if not more, men were Influenced
by that false cry. 1t is natural that
women should dread war, because Of the
sacrifices it entails upon them; but never

The traffic situation is critical just
now. All kinds of merchandise is seri-
ously delayed by the inability of the
shippers to obtain empty cars. The
railroads claim that large amount of
rolling stock is needlessly tied up by
failure of the consignees to unload their
shipments promptly. Then it is uncer-
tain as to what the decision of the Su-
preme Court on the Adamson bill will be,
and Gompers has declared the railroad
Brotherhoods will have the 8hour day
no matter what the court decides. After
the first of January next the long threat
ened strike may take place. Under these
conditions the farmer who buys his farm
machinery, fertilizer and spraying ma
terials early will be protecting his own
interests. At the end of the season it
may be impossible to get sufficient
number of empty cars to rush these
shipments through.

When the Mexican Commission first
met Carranza S ultimatum was the with
drawal of the United States troops from
Mexico before other matters would be
considered. To withdraw the troops
sent into Mexico to capture or kill Villa,
but who had accomplished nothing, would
have had serious effect on President
Wilson's campaign for reelection; and
as Carranza would not yield in his de-
mand the commission was kept mark
ing time until after the election, and the
first paragraph in the protocol signed
last week by the American and Mexican
commissioners, and which has gone to
Carrarza for his approval, calls for the
return of Gen. Pershing's command to
