The Old Bell.

The old church bell keeps ringin' down
to Pohick on the Crick,
A-callin' us together, SOS to circumvent
Old Nick.
The number Of the telephones we have
is ruther small
An most of them won't answer if you
try to make a call.
The trains are not so many as they
were in days gone by,
An their whistles echo family from the
blue an placid sky.
We haven't any wireless to bring It'd
ings from afar.
We move along in quietude that scarce
ly knows jar.
The sound that softly thrills us is the
calling of the bell.
1t has been a hopeful summons, it has
been sorrowing knell.
As it uttered its reminder that we're
built upon plan
That makes it good for man to meet
an know his fellow man.
The messages it brings us are of vastly
greater worth
Than even those which scientists send
speeding round the earth.
Perhaps we don't git all the news
leastways, not very quick.
But the old church bell keeps ringin'
down to Pohick on the Crick.

Carranza's Manifesto.

Carranza's manifesto to the Mexican
people, reciting the conditions which
have caused the plan for an American
expedition into Mexico for the capture
of Villa, states that under no circum-
stances save with reciprocal arrange
ments for the dispatch of Mexican
troops into the United States in pur-
suit of bandits will the invasion of
Mexican soil be tolerated. 1t is to be
borne in mind in this connection that
Carranza is not wholly secure in the
possession of the government of Mex
leo, and that he must demonstrate to
the people that he is not disposed to
allow the American forces freely to run
over Mexico. Any suspicion against
him at home would be sufficient to cause
his immediate downfall. On the other
hand, any unreasonable opposition to
the entry of American troops into Mex
leo to catch the brigand whom he can
not overtake and punish brings him into
conflict with the United States. His
situation is, therefore, one of the great
est delicacy.
The proposition to revive an earlier
arrangement of reciprocal border cross
ing in pursuit of bandits carries with
it no grave difficulty. The comparison
between the Indian raids of the eigh-
ties and the Villa incursion of today is
not especially striking. The Indians
we're not such an integral part of the
American people as are the Villa out
laws. They did not have the sympathy
of the Americans in their lawlessness
as it is to be feared the Villa bandits
have today among a large number of
Mexicans. The United States was then
doing its best sincerely to round up
and check the Indians, for its own sake
as we'll as for that of Mexico. The raids
into Mexico were of slight consequence
and had no Interior motive.
If Carranza can give any material as
sistance in the pursuit of Villa, whether
the chase leads into the United States
or not, it will be gratefully received.
II may be questioned whether such aid
can be given. 1t is not in order now
for the government to suggest by any
act or word that there is lack of con-
fidence in the good faith of Mexican
troops who might cross the border in
ostensible pursuit of bandit squads. If
there is lack of good faith war be-
tween the United States and Mexico is
inevitable Such war is not contem-
plated now by this government. 1t is
not desired. Everything will be done
10 avoid it, short of surrender to
condition of lawlessness and rapine in
American territory which the Mexican
government either cannot or will not
seriously undertake to cure.

The Future of the Republic.

In an interview, William Finn. the
leading bull mooser of Pennsylvania,
discusses the general political situation
and what sort of candidate for Presi-
dent the republicans should nominate:
THAT candidate can be Roosevelt,
but if not Roosevelt, a man somewhere
near his equal, who stands on a plat
form the progressives approve. 1t is
some time until June, and lot of
things may happen. But patriotism
and not politics should control the dele
gates, as the situation now stands. The
country will be found displaying pre-
cious little concern with politics, poll
ticians, or even parties, at a time when
the future of the republic is at stake"
Roosevelt, or a man somewhere near
his equal has the true bull moosean
ring. Roosevelt first, and the rest of
mankind trailing. That is real wor-
ship, and the only kind acceptable TO
the worshiped.
But why does Mr.. Finn think-if he
does think-that "the future of the re-
public is at stake! What warrants
his belief that we are so close to the
rocks only the most fortunate nomina-
ton this year can save u.s. That needs
explanation.
We are nowhere near smash: and
IT is wrong 50 to represent the situation.
We need much larger army and n
much larger navy, and Congress at this
session should put us in the way Of
getting both at the earliest possible
day. But if Congress should fail us,

The Street Car Settlement.

An effective settlement of the issues
between the street railway companies
and their employees has been reached
without recourse to arbitration. This
is most satisfactory outcome of the
recent disagreement, with its two DAY
strike AS Il result of the prolonged
consultations of last week, which did
not end until o'clock Sunday morn
ing, peace is assured for at least year,
and in the light of the demonstration
that companies and operatives can get
together on an equitable basis it may
be believed that this peace is indefinite
The changes in rates and time SEIZED
ules which have been worked out by
direct negotiation seem fair to both
sides. The companies grant a certain
increase in pay and withdraw all profit
sharing bonuses, leaving net gain for
the men. The men gain a modification
of the time schedule which prevents
certain injustices and hardships. They
also gain the right to maintain stand
ing grievance committee for the adjust
ment of differences that may arise out
of working conditions from time to
time. An especially gratifying feature
of this particular concession is that the
men who represented the operatives
during the negotiations were indicated
by the companies as their preference
for this grievance committee, so
straightforward and reasonable and fair
had been their attitude throughout the
conferences of the week.
There is no specific recognition of
the union, but the companies have ac
knowledged its existence in effect and
have granted the right of the men to
organize for mutual protection and for
the presentation of claims This is
practical compromise on the question
which at one time seemed likely to
cause hopeless split which even an
arbitration might not have availed to
bridge. Now that the adjustment has

The Anglo-German Naval Conflict.

Renewed reports come of evidences of
German plan for great naval dash
by the Germans such as was indicated
last week by the emergence of a Ger
man fleet from Kiel, only to return in
short time to base. From Rotterdam
mail dispatch has gone to London
paper specifically stating that it is the
present purpose of Berlin to send the
fleet out in maximum force in the hope
of dealing an effective blow at the Brit
ish navy by a combination of battle
ships. submarines and Zeppelins. If
this is the purpose last weeks sally of
the fleet from Kicl is to be considered
as trial run, perhaps to ascertain
whether British naval forces we're with
ing powers of the peculiarly constituted
armada 1t is inconceivable that there
should not be at some time during the
war definite gage of battle on the
seas between Germany and England. If
peace should come by some adjustment
as result of land operations without
this conflict it would not be rated as
conclusive. Naval Jealousy between
England and Germany has been one of
the potent causes of this war, and
sooner or later, before the white flag
flies in Europe, this tremendous strug-
gle at sea must come. Naturally each
side seeks the most favorable condi
ton for the marine warfare, and if the
battle is sought by Germany it will
not be until the authorities at Berlin
feel that they have reached their maxi.
mum strength or until the conditions az
home compel naval demonstration.

FAT PEOPLE CAN

Fat men and women who would like
to reduce their weight by 10 or Is
pounds should try a little Korein with
their meals and note results. Here is
8 test worth trying. First weigh your
self and measure yourself. Then take
Korein-one capsule with every meal
and one before retiring-for a few
weeks. Then weigh and measure
again The scales and the tape meas
ure will tell their own story. and many
fat men and women we believe can
easily take off from five to eight
pounds in the first IA days by follow
ing this simple method.
Korein does not OF itself reduce
flesh but mixing with the food. it aims
to assist the fat-burning elements Of
the blood to use up and consume the
extra fat in all parts of the body.
