MORE OF ROOSEVELT.

The country is not done with Roose'
welt. This wonderful man stood on
he veranda of his home at Sycamore
Hill after the undoing of his political
wishes at Chicago, with eyes red from
oss of sleep, tired and sick from dis
appointment and strain, and told the
camera men to desist, that he was out

Many an editor since that occur
renee has said goodbye" with pathet
lie tenderness, but with real doubt as
to whether Roosevelt will be up and

George r. Rooster of the Piedmont
Greenville, s. c., thus soliloquizes:
1t is almost a pathetic picture
that one of the metropolitan pa
pers draws of the erstwhile lead
err, as with depressed spirit he
turns away from the reporters,
and for once in his life has moth
ing to say. One almost feels the
touch of noble pity that he feels
for Napoleon gazing out on the
restless sea from his retreat at st.
Helena dreaming of the days when
he led the old guard to victory;
one almost feels like quoting Hia-
watha, as he takes his place in his
canoe and departs in the glory Of
the sunset to the kingdom of the
blessed and the land Of the here
after.
Great chance that for political

A MUNICIPAL SWIMMING POOL.

In number of cities and towns mu-
nicipal swimming pools have added
greatly to the pleasures of both young
and old. 1t is a pleasure that the lar
ger cities cannot have for the reason
that there is never quite the room for
hem that is required. But the small
err town is learning fast that the swim
ming pool can be had at comparatively
small cost and many of them have
provided fine places.
Cordele is ready for such an added
recreation and needs it. The boys, our
future citizens, jump into Gum Creek
beyond the fertilizer works, just as
boys will do and the "old swimmin'
hole" is veritable mud hole. They
deserve better, but they are going to
take what they can get That's
boys disposition and they are going
into places in the creek that will do
them harm.
Sanitary Inspector Bussey is busy
with plans at the old spring that will
mean fine municipal bathing place
The city has through the sanitary de-
partment already expended some of
its funds cleaning up underbrush and
opening up some of the springs where
the bottom is of pretty white sand
and the water cool and pure. The pur-
pose is to make this place safe and
comfortable and eventually construct
the necessary bath house so every
body can go in bathing.
With very small expense the site
Of the old waterworks could be con-
verted into bathing place of rare
value to the community Those who
have looked the prospect over have
readily agreed that the city could
well afford to make the improvements.
There is no need of an expense run
aing over 5000 to $500. If it were
necessary, those who loved the sport
could raise this amount.

A bunch of farmers wanted better
horses and they paid $1,000 for an i'm
ported stallion and hired an experience
ed man at $40 per month to take care
of him. A school boad, composed
mostly of these same farmers, hired
an inexperienced girl teacher for their
school at $50 month, with twenty-five
pupils, as matter of economy. Here
you are: Care of one brute, $40 per
month; care of twenty-five human be-
ings $50 a month. Is the joke on the
teacher or the horse, or the men who
hired both? And yet we wonder why
boys and girls want to leave the
farm-Dawson News.

LONDON SAYS MEXICAN
CRISIS BOUND TO COME

LONDON, June 26.-The first COM
peared in the morning papers Friday:
The Chronicle, noting that the Ger
man press has expressed satisfaction
over Carranza's hostility, and recog-
nizing that hostility may have been
stimulated by German agents, thinks
that it was, nevertheless bound to
come, anyway, sooner or later The
paper says:
whether Carrizal is the beginning
of war remains to be seen But ever
since President Wilson started his in
reference in Mexican affairs in Huer-
tas time events have been leading to
that conclusion
IF war freaks out, it will be more
on the lines Of the Transyaal than of
any now in progress 1t may give the
United States some trouble; but, not
being a war Of munitions to any great
extent it would scarcely affect Am
erica's influence in the worlds con-
flict."
Inqulrers at official quarters today
in connection with the crisis between
the United states and Mexico were
told that Great Britain wishes to con-
tinue completely neutral in the Mexi-
can trouble and confidently assumes
that Mexico will take measures to
protect the British oil properties, even
If it takes reprisals
The Eyer'ng Standard says:
"As Washington's attitude is un-
derstood here. It is such as to reas-
sure the oil interests"

Second in State

NIULTNOMAH COUNTY ALONE
LEADS IN NUMBER OF GASo-
LINE VEHICLES.

Umatilla county ranks as the second
county in the state in number of au-
tomobiles, according to official fig
ures from the secretary of state. Multi
nomah county alone tops this county.
On June of this year there were
1346 licensed automobiles in Umatilla
county which is 55 more than were
licensed during the entire year OF
1915. Marion county ranks next to
Umatilla with 1901, Jackson next with
124S and Lane next with 1l72. The
percentage of gain in eastern oregon
IS much higher than in other sections
NJ. 0. wilkins, publisher of the
Automobile Record, estimates that by
the end of the year there will be 32,-
600 automobiles running around in
Oregon To reach that figure the au-
to dealers will only have to sell 5000
cars during the last half Of the year
This will give oregon one automobile
for every % inhabitants.
