Our Ripley friend would have Bill Jones just sit down and
whine and allow his cotton to remain in his yard and rot. Bill
market. The vessels of the ocean, which carry cotton and
other commerce., serve the Same purpose of Bill Jones wagon
and team. AS to people taking passage on steamships, it is at
least fair to assume that they had urgent business; but anyway,
the President, his cabinet and every man who ought to be in
formed about such matters, say we were entirely within our
rights in this matter and if we are not to accept the judgment Of
those who have studied such questions, whose judgment shall
we accept? How long would any red-blooded American allow
some dare devil character to walk up and down the road or
street in front of his gate and tell him that he must stay in his
house under penalty of being fired upon and killed? No man
worthy Of being the head of a home would long submit to such
deviltry and indignities; he might not walk boldly out to the
front at first but he would go out the back door at any rate
and take a crack around the corner of his house at the malig-
nant man at his gate. hnq&t:
But we would have our Ripley friend bear in mind that it
was not about the war that Vardaman rOwed with the President
and with his party. Vardaman jumped the party fence on the
Ship Purchase bill, the Mexican question and sundry other mat
dent for several years. He has been "agin" the President in
spite of the fact that the President treated him with due cour-
tesy and allowed him to name half of the appointments that
go to Senators in Mississippi. The President was so mindful
brother for the latest ofice-h he had to dispense within the state,
land in naming his brother he did that which we believe in)
BY the way, is it reasonable to expect that President Wilson
will be so generous in allowing Senators who are continually
blocking the administration to make re-appOintments. when the
terms Of the present incumbents expire?
We repeat what we said in the opening paragraph of this
article, our local fights should be deferred just as long as posi-
BILE while the country is atawar, but those who have been sup
we'll get their blowers ready to blow for his airship is going to
be punctured. If Vardaman. can win after antagonizing his
party and voting time after time with the Republicans on mat
tiers of vital party import, then we had just as well abandon
our primaries and party regularity in Mississippi.
By the way, what is our Ripley friend going to do with
the aspirations of Gov. Bilbo? It is no secret that Gov. Bibo
has been discussing the probability of contesting senatorial is

TOO MUCH IDEALISM NOT NECESSARY.

W. think that the government would serve present pur-
war. Too much ideaism just now is homeopathic. 1t is beau
tiful in theory but not Very consolng to the soldier who is being
marched up against death-deafng shot and shell.
We had ample cause to enter the war. Let the matter be
just as nearly as possible brought home to each and every chi-
zen. There is no reading person that does not know about the
sinking of our ships and the drowning of innocent women and
children time after time. There is no reading person who does
not know that Germany undertook to run our commerce off the
seas. There is no reading person who does not know that Ger
many undertook to enforce the very doctrine that this govern
ment fought Great Britain about in 1912, and that was the
freedom of the SEAS There is no reading person who does
not kow that Germany broke her pledge to President Wilson
about using the submarine and that she violated every written
obligation she had heretofore made at the Hague conference
and other international meets. -'rr
Yes, keep the murder of our women and children to the
front. "Democratizing the world is a sort of empyrean SEN
timentalism and we must confess does not especially appeal to
us. We feel that insofar as we are concerned, those European
crown heads can eat each other up so long as they will let us
alone and allow our. business to proceed in due order. Those
European kings and emperors have married and intermarried
with the very view of preserving themselves and their govern
ments as they are and we are willing that they should have their
way. if they will let us alone. But this they did not do. We ap-
preciate that we must deal with conditions over there as we find
them, and that in the very nature of things we must make COM
mon cause with the enemies of the government that has, fgura-
lively speaking, spit in our faces after numbering our people.
But in doing this, it is not necessary to talk about hitting their
governments to ours. That may come when peace terms are
to be considered but all of us know that had Germany let US
alone. we would not have been in the fracus. President Will
son exhausted every resource before he drew the sword. He
wanted peace and there was never a President in the White
House who bore greater burdens than he is now bearing.

of the reservoir ke-that-is-to-be.
They're doing it so that they can get

call it, and then We'll have to buy them
off, as the others have been bought
off,.
Smith was by this time entirely ia
miliar with the maps and profiles and
other records of the ditch company's
lands and holdings.
"All the land within the limits of the
flood level has been bought and paid
for-some of it more than once, hasn't
it?" he asked.
"Oh, yes; but that doesn't make any
difference. These men will claim that
their location was made long ago, and
that they are just now getting RI dy
to work it. It's often done in the case
of mining claims"
when is all this going to happen~
he inquired.
ut is already happening" she broke
out impatiently. "Mr. Martin said
the three men left town a little after
daybreak and crossed on the Brewster
bridge to go up on the other side of
the Timanyoni."
The young woman had taken her
place again behind the big tiller wheel
and Smith calmly motioned her out
Of it.
Take the other seat and let me get
in here" he said; and when she had
changed over, he swung in behind the
wheel and put q foot on the clutch
pedal
"What are you going to do?" she
asked.
I'm going to take you on up to the
camp, and then, IL you'll lend me this
car, I'll 60 and do what you hoped to
persuade Williams to do-run these
mining-claim jokers into the tall tim

"But you can't!" she protested; "you
can't do it alone! And, besides, they
are on the other side of the river, and
you can't get anywhere with the car.
You'll have to go all the way back to
Brewster to get across the river!"
1t was just here that he stole an
other glance at the very-much-alive
little face behind the motor veil; at
the firm, round chin and the resolute
slaty-gray eyes.
Il suppose ought to take you to
the camp" he said. "But you may go
along with me, if you want to-and
are not afraid"
| She laughed in his face.

LIMIT FOR RAILROAD WAGONS
Time Fixed Beyond Which Retention
of Car Will Be Offense Under De-
Tense of Realm Rules.

In view of the extreme importance
of securing that the utmost possible
use shall be made of railroad wagons,
the board of trade has now issued or
ders which come into force in Great
Britain, fixing the time beyond
which the retention of railroad wagon
by trader will be an offense under
the defense of the realm regulations,
says a London Dispatch to Christian
Science Monitor. The times allowed
are in general one complete day for
loading and two for unloading. Three
days fOur in Scotland) are allowed
for unloading shipments traffic at
ports and two days are allowed in
Scotland for loading wagons with coal
for shipment. The orders do not apply
to coal traffic in England and Wales.
Further orders give power to railroad
companies themselves to unload wag-
Ons which are not unloaded by the
trader within the prescribed times,
and to make use of the private owners
wagons on the return journey so that
the unnecessary haulage of empty wag-
Ons may be avoided. These orders are
being printed as statutory rules.
Where necessary, the periods at pres
ent allowed before demurrage charges
accrue will be amended so as to &C
cord with the periods fixed by these
orders.

SAFETY DEVICE FOR TRAINS
Engineer Must Leave His Cab and Set
Mechanism to Permit Continued
Travel of Train.

In describing an automatic safety
signaling and braking device for trains,
invented by J. F. Mccoy of ITO India
street, Brooklyn, N. Y, the Scientific
American says:
The invention provides a braking
mechanism which when operated by
trip connected with each semaphore
or signaling device will necessitate the
engineer getting out of his cab and set
ting the trip device so as to close the
auxiliary train line pipe in order to re-
lease the brakes and permit continued
travel of the train thereby preventing
the engineer from rendering the device
imperative when once actuated, from
the throttle lever or brake valve or
mechanism associated with the air
brake system and rendering the mech
anism tamper-prOof and efficient in use

mobile, with the cut-out open, was top
ping the side-hill grade, and Smith rec
ognized it at once. 1t was Colonel Dex-
ter Baldwin's roadster, and it held
single OVERWHELMINGLY, the young
woman who was driving it.
Turning to look up the track, he saw
that the three loaded cars had been
set out, and the forward section of the
train was now backing to make the
coupling with the standing half. He
hoped that the trainmen had seen the
automobile, and that they would not
after the gray car had crossed behind
the caboose. But in the same breath
he guessed, and guessed rightly, that
they were too far around the curve to
be able to see the wagon-road ap-
proach.
Smith saw the young woman, check
the speed for the abrupt turn at the
bottom of the hill, saw the car take the
turn in a skidding slide, heard the re-
newed roar of the motor as the throttle
was opened for run at the embank-
ment grade. Then the unexpected
dropped it's bomb. There was jan
Cling clash and the cars on the main
track were set in motion. The train
men had failed to make their coupling
and the rear half or the train was surg
ing down upon the crossing.
Smiths shout or the sight Of the on
coming train, one of the two, or both,
put the finishing touch on the young
woman's nerve. There was still time
in which to clear the train, but at the
critical instant the young woman ap-
parently changed her mind and tried
to stop the big car short of the cross
ing. The effort was unsuccessful.
When the stop was made, the front
wheels of the roadster were precisely
in the middle of the main track, and
the motor was killed.
By this time Smith had thrown his
coat away and was racing the backing
train, with the eX-grade-laborer a poor
second a dozen yards to the rear. Hav-
ing ridden in the roadster, Smith knew
that it had no self-starter. Jump"
he yelled. Get out of the carr and
then his heart came into his mouth
when he saw that she was struggling
to free herself and couldn't; that she
was entangled in some way behind the
low-hung tiller wheel.
Smith was running fairly abreast Of
the caboOse when he made this discov-
cry, and the hundred feet of clearance
had shrunk to fifty. In imagination
he could already see the gray car over
turned and crushed under the wheels
of the train. In a flying squirt he
gained a few yards on the advancing
menace and hurled himself against
the front of the stopped roadster. He
did not attempt to crank the motor.
There was time only for mighty
heave and shove to send the car back
ing down the slope Of the crossing
approach; for this and for the quick
spring aside to save himself; and the
thing was done.

"Fm Smith," he told her; adding:
''It's my real name"
Her laugh was an instant easing
of tensions.
"Oh, yes; you're Mr.. Williams as
sistant. I've heard colonel-da-my
father, speak of you"
NO." he denied in blunt honesty,
I'm not Williams assistant; at least,
the pay roll doesn't say so. Up at the
| camp they call me the Hobo.'"
The young woman had apparently
regained whatever small fraction of
self-possession the narrow escape had
shocked aside.
Are they never going to take that
miserable train out of the way7" she
exclaimed. 1--WE got to see Mr.. Will
liams, and there isn't a minute to
spare. Colonel-da-I mean my father,
has gone up to Red Butte, and little
while ago they telephoned over to the
ranch from the Brewster Office to say
that there was going to be some more
trouble at the DAM"
"You won't find Williams at the
| camp. He started out early this morn
ing beyond Little creek, and said he
wouldn't be back until some time to-
morrow. Will you tell me what you're
needing?"
"Ohw she exclaimed, with a little

CHAPTER vi.
A Notice to Quit.

Once started and given its push, the
gray roadster drifted backward from
the railroad crossing and kept on until
it came to rest in the sag at the turn
in the road. Running to overtake it,
Smith found that the young woman
was still trying Intellectually to free
herself. In releasing the clutch her
dress had been caught, and Smith was
glad enough to let the extrlcating Of
the caught skirt and the cranking Of
the engine serve for a breath catching
recovery.
When he stepped back to tune" the
spark the young woman had subsidized
into the mechanician's seat and was
relying her veil with fingers that We're
not any too steady. She was small
but well-knit; her hair was a golden
brown and there was good deel of
it; her eyes were set well apart, and
in the bright morning sunlight they
were slaty gray-of the exact shade
of the motor veil she was rearranging.
Smith had sudden conviction that he
had seen the wide-set eyes before; also
the straight little nose and the half
boyish mouth and chin, though where
he had seen them the conviction could
give no present hint.
II sup-pup-suppose I ought to say
something appropriate" she was be-
ginning, half breathlessiy, while Smith
stood at the fender and grinned.
"You don't have to say anything. It's
been long time since I've had a
chance to make such bully grand
stand play as this" And then !:
you're ColoRl Baldwin's daughter,
aren't you"
She nodded, saying:
"How did you known
II know the car. And you have your
fathers eyes,"
She did not seem to take It amiss
that he was making her eyes basis
for comparisons. She was her fathers
only son, as well as his only daughter,
and she divided her time pretty evenly
in trying to live up to both sets of re-
quirements.
"You have introduced me; wo-won't
rou introduce yourself?" she said,
when a second crash of the shifting
freight train spent itself and gave her
an opening.

whistle some distance Off 1t is claimed
that by accurately co-ordlnating the
vibration pitch Of the signal receiver
with the note of the locomotive whistle
the system Is quite practical, and that
1t will not respond to other loud noises
which are not correctly pitched. The
inventor would use the vibration of the
receiver to close an electric circuit,
which would pass the current to

Internal Heat of Planets.

The late Professor Lowell's discov-
cry that Saturn does not rotate as one
piece, but has "confocal layers, rotat.
ing faster within" suggests that some
of the other large planets may have
the same structure. AS pointed out
by Professor Very, the friction of lay
ers Of different velocitles would gen.
crate heat, and thus retard the cool
ing down of the planets.--Scientif,
