Butcher, Spare That Calf

Oh, butcher spare that calf;
Touch not single hair,
But give it milk to quaff,
And also greatest care.
'Twhas his old mother COW
That has since ages dim
Given to us milk, and now
I'll make a fight for him.
Oh, butcher, stay your knife;
Don't kill the calf today.
But if you must take life
You can older creatures Stay.
But give the calf more scope,
And heed his hungry cry;
In him lies our last hope
Of beefsteak by and by.
Oh, butcher do not kill
A calf, whate'er you do,
For when mature he will
Make food for me and you.
Then let the young thing grow
Til with increase of weight
We can all eat beef, you know.
Without expense so great.

AS TO OUR PRESIDENT

Things are as they are, and not as
they should be. Moreover, there are
no ifs in history. What another
would have done in President Will
sons place, it is foolish to discuss.
What he has done is done, and at
this end of the Pc peetive of his
tory, it seems mighty we'll done.
looking back into the little end Of
the field glass it is easy to say what
might have been done But what
was done-from whatever motive
in this war crisis is this:
Five years of forbearance with
Mexico, and nearly three years of
patience with Germany. And every
month that has passed has brought
the country to better understand
ing of the issues involved. SO that,
slowly but surely, the country has
come to see, not through it's leader
ship, and among the elect, but with
the common eyes of all, exactly
what America stands for in the
world; and further, the country has
come to a realization of all the
wickedness and horror and autoe-
raey for which Germany under the
kaiser's war party, stands today.
The education of the American
people has been slow. 1t has been
costly in humiliation, and many OF
us have felt that it was piling up a
debt of insult which America never
could wipe out in the worlds es
, TEEN. But we were wrong. Our
first move, the Presidents first mes
sage to the world, took away the
sting of humiliation, and wiped out
all the three years Of gross insult
to our flag. Perhaps he is merely a
word spinner; but his words in that
world-war message were great winged
missiles that will harm German au
tocracy more than a thousand tons
of lead and steel and powder. Words
were needed, and he had them. And
by those words, when Congress backed
him up with a declaration of war
America rose to her full stature and
began her service in conflict where
she has been needed for three eyars
Perhaps Roosevelt would have
done better; perhaps Taft would have
done differently. Mr.. Hughes could
have done no more than Mr.. Wilson
has done, since March 5. But be that
as it may, things are as they are and
history has no ifs. Today, every citi-
zen Of this republic has reason to
be proud of his President, and glad
that he is an American with his Pres.
ident. Criticism is vain and idle
There is enough to praise without
bothering to blame, where blame is
useless and probably unjust

KEEPING OUT OF WAR

By turning to your United States
history, covering the period of about
one hundred years ago, you may see
where history repeated itself, the con
ditions being parallel to those which
have existed and are existing at the
present time.
In the first place in the early part
of Washington's second term, this
country came near being drawn into
a war with Great Britain, as an ally
of France The latter country had
aided the colonies during the Revolu-
ton, and many believed that France
should be given a helping hand in her
distress. The frmness of Washing
ton, however, preserved the neutral.
ity of the new government and kept
this country out of war.
In the second parallel, this country
suffered a number of abuses which led
finally to war, much the same as the
events which have taken place be-
tween this country and Germany. A
little over a century ago, when Thorn
as Jefferson was president, there were
series of violations on the part OF
England and France which finally
drew this nation into the conflict
Those two nations were at war, and
to injure France and her allies, Eng
land issued orders in council, declar
ing much of the coast of Europe in a
state of blockade. Bonaparte retail
ated by declaring the British Isles to
be in state Of blockade. This is
England and Germany over again, and
let us see what happened. The next
thing that England did was to de.
clare that all vessels trading with
France were liable to confiscation I'm.
less they first paid tribute to Eng.
land. Bonaparte came back with a
decree confscating every vessel that
had yielded to England's demands. Be.
sides, England maintained the right OF
search and impressing American sea
men found on American ships. The
United States demonstrated in vain

United States frighte Chesapeake

ing an American craft. The firing OF
the Leopard was SO unexpected the
Chesapeake was forced to strike her
coIors, having lost several men. The
Leopard then forced several Ameri-
can-born citizens into the British serv-
ice. Then the President ordered all
British armed vessels to leave the
waters of the United States until Eng
land should make reparation for the
outrage upon the American flag. Al
though England set up no defense, rep
aration was not made for more than
four years. Affairs went from bad to
worse and this country finally placed
an embargo on shipping in order to
keep all the vessels belonging in this
country at home. Many in this coun-
try believed during the impending
crisis with Germany and when that
country declared her submarines would
sink all ships approaching the British

Under $5,OOO Bond

Alexander MarqueZ the Mex ican charged with perpetrating the horrible crime upon little twelve year old Nativada Her nandez, had his hearing before Judge Button Wednesday after noon. The case against him is a strong one and he was bound over under a price of S5,000. This might as we'll have been five million as far as Marquez is concerned. Cipriona Chavey the Mexican with three child ren upon whom the crime was first blamed, is held under five hundred dollars bond, as an important witness. The Sher- ifs office including Deputy Wade certainly deserves much credit for the speedy way in which they ferrited out the man who is guilty, almost beyond possible doubt. MT. Wade ar rested him at a sheep camp fifteen miles out from Hillside.
 Attorney Wilson deserves much credit, too, for the deter mined way in which he lent his assistance in bring Marquez to justice.
 The speedy justice that de- scended upon Marquez should serve as a severe warning to other possible offenders in the future.
