nate proved men free from previous
political alignments. Mr.. Weller re-
ceived the greatest number of votes ever
given a Republican Candidate. 1t is the
policy that will build up the party.
His candidacy represents the nation
wide movement to nominate candidates
upon whom all opponents of the Dem
ocratic Party can unite enthusiastically
so that the breach of 1912 may be per-

INDIAN WARFARE.

The fight at Carrizal may be taken
as an example of what Americans NAV
expect in Mexico, if the expected ger
eral intervention is found unavoidable.
There will be no organized campaign
by the Mexican forces. Four years of
anarchy and guerrilla civil war have
made the Mexicans a military rabbie,
unable to grasp the meaning of scien-
tific warfare. It is, moreover, doubt
full if there is constitutionalist gen.
eral competent to command in any
large undertaking. Villa, the. one
leader Of proved ability, is still under
prescription.
The Mexicans will doubtless fight
the United States as they have fought
one another. There will be sporadic
dashes and forays. Small American
detachments may be ambushed by the
Mexican troops or by irregulars who
will benefit from their accurate know
ledge of the country. Despite inferior
leadership, inferior equipment and T.
ferior discipline the brown soldiers
will fight bravely enough, for the Mex
ican is not coward. He will win few
battles, but he will be difficult to beat
He can fight and run. He is more thar
half Indian, and the tactics of India1,
warfare will doubtless be largely fol-
lowed by the American commanders

GIRL BROWNS
MISS FREDA SCHLICHTING LOS
ES HER LIFE IN LAKE NEAR


A wire reached this city Tuesday
night that Miss Freda Schlichting,
daughter of Mr.. Schlichting, who
works at the Burtscher Tailoring shop,
had been drowned in lake near
Granville, and asked that her father
be notified. Mr.. Schlichting was no.
titled by Chief of Police Timboe, and
he caught the night train for Gran
vile. No further particulars have
been obtained at this time.
Miss Schlichting was a graduate of
the local high school, and was a splen-
did young lady, and popular with all
who knew her and her death was a
sad blow, not only to the relatives but
a large circle of near and dear friends.
She had been teaching school near
Bantry and her mother was living on
the Schlichting homestead near that
place. II appears that she was out on
the lake with some friends when the
boat capsized and she being unable to
swim was drowned. -

FOURTH OF JULY
BEAUTIFUL. DAY.


s One, could not imagine more beau
tiful day to celebrate the glorious 4th
than we had Tuesday. Monday night
we had nice rain, and Tuesday was
bright and warm and with u nice
breeze, and was just an Ideal day.
People began to arrive the evening be-
fore and Tuesday saw a large crowd
in the city and at the Chautauqua
grounds. In the city Lynn ]. Frazier,
the Republican nominee fo. Governor.
spoke about noon to Fair sized at
dience and then most of the crowd
went to the Chautauqua grounds to
join in the celebration. IN the morn
ing at 10:30 there was ball game at
the park near the city, between the All
Nations team and the Brins,nade STA IS
The All Nations won out. In the
afternoon at the Chautauqua park
there were two games between the
Knox and Starkweather teams, and
both games We're witnessed by a good
crowd. The Starkweather boy; vc:,
both games, the first one by a score OF
6 to 8 and the evening game by .e.. z
of to 2. Besides the ball games ut
Chautauqua there was good program
at the auditorium both afternoon and
evening, winding up with the movin:'
picture show, after which there was a
grand display Of fireworks at the lake
front. 1t was very satisfactory day
to all, and we believe that everybody
had good time.

|KU KLUX KLAN'S WARNING TO
ITS VICTIMS. IT,.

TIE Ku Klux Klan's warning to in->
tended victims was three dried peas.
Singular, but the order itself was sim
gular and did nothing after conven-
tional lines. These would be sent Gre
marked man at intervals and no word
to accompany them. If he were re-
siding in the south during those tror.
blous days, he would know the signi-
ficance OF those mysterious, but seem-
ingly harmless peas and if he were
guilty Of misdeed against either the
cause of the south, and of it's tradi-
tions or the silent, deadly band who
thus remembered him, his days were
surely numbered and there was no es-
cape from their vengeance but b,
death at his own hand-and seldom
was there that.
One dared not breathe the name o.
the organization for fear his nearest
neighbor might belong to it and many
a man suddenly disappeared because
Of unguardedly making careless re-
mark about the Ku Klux Klan.
When first hastily gotten together,
It is said, these modern knights en-
rolled the best and noblest blood in the
Old South, but after their specific mis-
sion was completed and stable law
regulated the rights of the southern
people, their services were no longer
required and they disbanded, when
the hoodlums and desperate charac-
ters Of the land took up the order am;
used it to cover their own deeds, thu.
bringing down upon the name Of
the "Clansmen" the odious reputation
they have ever since borne.
Many blood curdling tales were told
of their doings and secret and deadly
workings. e.
The rides and rescues of the Ku
Klux so graphically, dramatically set
forth in the Birth of A Nation are
those of the original, right-enforcirg
organization of true sons of the Old
South ---v.sss..:,s : s !. + }:TasT A.
