LOCAL ELEVEN SMOTHERED.

The worst defeat the Stanford
football team has ever sustained was
administered to it Saturday when the
Eastern State Normal eleven wal
loped Stanford High ii to 0. The
Normalites, however, outweighed the
local lads % to 80 pounds to the
man, and the defeat was not an in
glorious one by any means. Stan
ford made a hard, game fight, but
Normal was too big. This was the
first game of the season for Stan
ford, and she will do better later in

BRUNER FAILS TO SHOW UP

Republicans of Stanford and LIN
coin county were somewhat disap-
pointed here Friday night when DR..
Ben L. Bruner failed to show up for
his speaking appointment at the
court house. The campaign COM
mittee sent instead Attorney j. M.
Robson, of Barbourville, who is said
to have made a good speech from a
republican standpoint, but, of course
not up to the argument that sea-
soned campaigner and veteran like
DR.. Bruner would have delivered.
Democrats who heard Robson, say
he did not hurt Wilson's chances in
the least, so there you are.

dor, charged with being active in q
movement to cripple American manu-
facture of munitions. On October

THE CIVIL WAR IN MEXICO

In the early part of the year it was
evident that Francisco Villa had the
ambition to become the political War
wick Of the republic OF Mexico. On
January he deposed the provisional
governor, Gutierrez, and installed Gen.
eral Cara in his place. He was still
master of the situation at the City of
Mexico, and Carranza still maintained
his stand at Vera Cruz. Meantime, the
fighting went on uninterruptedly, with
varying results, but none decisive.
In June the situation on the border
and elsewhere became so irritating
that the United States government
felt compelled to give official warning
to the factional leaders that failure on
their part to come to some agreement
would necessitate Intervention. De-
spite this intimation, the forces OF
Villa and Carranza continued to keep
revolution afame, and by midsummer
the Mexican situation seemed to be
more inexplicable than ever. Villas
star waned perceptibly. A new mill
tary influence, General Oregon, took
the center Of the stage. He assumed
the leadership of the Carranza faction.
and his military successes were con-
siderable. In July General Gonzales,
another Carranza supporter, fought his
way into Mexico City, displacing Gen.
eral Zapata, WHO held the place in the
Villa interest. Later, Gonzales was
driven out and the situation was SO
threatening to life and property in the
capital that, in August, American bat
tleships were ordered to Vera Cruz,
but were not put into action. In this
month, also, an appeal signed by Sec
rotary Of State Lansing and the repre-
sentatives of South and Central Amer
lean governments asking all warning
elements in Mexico to get together in
an attempt at pacification was sent to
the various leaders. During Septem-
Der the fighting on the Mexican border
grew more desperate. There were
many fatalities before United States
troops gained control Of the situation.
On October 10, nine of the principal
governments of the American hemi-
sphere, headed by the United States,
recognized the de facto government Of
Mexico of which Carranza is the chief.

INDUSTRIAL AGITATION

EARLY in the year, the meetings of
the industrial relations commission,
held In New York city, attracted much
attention on account Of the promi-
nence Of some of those who were
called to testify. The chief purpose
Of the investigation was to obtain the
opinions Of well-known capitalists and
employers on the present relations of
capital and labor. January 10, guards
in a factory near Roosevelt, N. j.,
fred on group Of striking workmen,
killing one man and wounding several
others. April Is, In Chicago. 1000
carpenters went on strike for an In
crease in wages. June IA, motormen
and conductors on the surface and
elevated railways of Chicago, $4,000
in all, struck for higher wages and
q complete tie-up resulted. The dis
pute, however, was settled by arbitra-
ton after two days Of business paraly-
sis. The carpenters strike in that
city, which had crippled the building
industry for several months, was end
ed by compromise wage agreement
July 10. Ten days loter, strike OF
10000 garment makers In New York
city was averted by wage increase
OF from IL to is per cent.
In July the employees OF the Stand
ard OIL plant at Bayonne, N. j., went
on strike and serious rioting followed.
During the lawlessness which pre-
vailed, two strikers were killed and

PUBLISHING CRIME-NEWS.

At tie Ad Club meeting yesterday letter was read
from visitor who complained that Honoluus news
papers ought to suppress news of crimes suicides
theft gambling etc, because such is not good
booster stuff He added that il the papers in his
home city dared to print such news they would
have to shut up shop before shutdown.
This writer neglected to give the name of his home
city--it probably isn't city, anyway and the Ad
Club has been unable to find out the name of the
ideal spot which he favors with his residence
1t is pity. because Honolulans would like to see
what sort Of newspapers those which refuse to
give the facts TO which the community is entitled, to
which good government is entitled to which decent
citizenry is entitled. Every newspaperrnan knows
that the local press is particularly conservative about
blazoning crime But when the direct relation
of booze and crime is Enthusiastically indicated, self
respecting newspaper can fail to point it out. 1t IS
this tracing of crime to the effects of booze which
seems to have irritated the visitor who wrote to the
Ad Club
Suppression of the facts about criminal violence
will encourage criminal violence to flourish in the
dark; will lull the community to false security; will
entirely fail of getting action to check such evils
gun-toting. klife-wielding gambling, bunko games,
debauchery.
And suppression of the news would exactly suit
the pressagents for booze who seriously alarmed
at the nationwide movement for prohibition
