DANGER EITHER WAY.

Trades unionism is an ex-
cellent thing; it is a weapon
against the tyranny of capital.
Capital is a necessary thing ;
without it no industry can de-
velop.
But the overdevelopment of
either is dangerous to demo-
cracy-and democracy must
survive and must rule. When
either of them attempts to be
master rather than servant of
the body polite, our freedom
and our national existence is
menaced by a disaster as grave
as invasion by a foreign foe.
Radicalism either way will
accomplish no good results.

that "a man only lives once"
We have only one chance to be
young. and if we don't get all
of the fun out of life in our
youth, our appetites may be
dulled by the lapse of time be-
fore we are able To indulge
them at leisure.
SO we don't control our APP
petites. We refuse to blend
our industry with consistent
economy. We go the pace in
our youth. and feel the lack of
affluence in the decline of life.
If we could make the two
virtues-industry and econ
omy-inherent, permanent and
universal in this town, we as a
community would then indeed
set a pace-a different pace
a pace of prosperity and hap
piness which would shed the
radience of peace and JOY from
the beginning to the end of
life.
And such a thing is possible
right in this community-in
this town-among ourselves.

GOOD WORDS FOR BAD.

Often a good reputation is
seriously impaired by a care
less word or two said in jest
and repeated in thoughtless-
ness. 1t is the same in this
community as in all others.
Men and women can not
guard too well their tongues in
this respect. 1t is not good
that our citizens be constantly
exposed to the impairment of
their good names because
some other person, in a NOM
ent of thoughtlessness or in a
spirit of vindictiveness, makes
questionable illusions to them
without the facts to substan-
tiate such derogatory state

THE SISTERS FAITH
Ford Will Bring Them
Back.

The following appeared few days
ago in the State Register" of
Springfield, Illinois.
MANY are the stories Of Henry
Ford and his popular automobile, but
Hillsboro is relating what il calls the
best of the season, and the facts in
the case are true 1t happened in
one of the leading churches of the
city that the pastor took for the text
of his sermon, Better Church Attend
ance'
1.-THE pastor held that the automo-
bile has taken more people away
from church than any other thing.
He concluded with the exclamation I;
The Ford car has taken more people
to hell than any other thing that ]
can mention Whereupon an old
lady in the congregation began to
clap her hands and moan Praise the
Lord! Praise the Lordp
whats the matter sister," asked
the pastor.
"The Ford never went any place
that it couldn't make the round trip,
and ] am sure that all of those people
in hell will be back, she answered.
So praise the Lord.

ments.
We are all interested in this
town and the surrounding ter
ritory. We want to see it grow,
and thrive, and blossom with
prosperity. We want to see il
a model community.
But it will never be other
than just what we of the COM
munity make it.
If we insist on constantly
hammering each other. we can
only expect battered wreck
as the result.
But if we remember that in
all people there is some good,
and look to and speak of the
best in life rather than the
worst, it will have wonder
fully beneficial result.
If each of us will search out
his own faults, and correct
them, we will be doing quite as
much as the Lord expects of
us individually.
If a stone must be cast, with
hold your arm. Let the con-
stituted officials handle the
case. 1t is better than an in
discriminate shower of missil-
es, whether they be verbal or
otherwise.
This is OUR town.
Let us BOOST, and not
shove.

He was elected jefe politico of Chi
huahua, which was his first public
office. In those days bandits ragged
through all the country districts OF
Mexico. =
In March, 1857, Terfazas led an
army of Mexicans against the French
invaders under the ill-fated Emperor
Maximilian. He had already placed
his fortune at the disposal of the
government to assist in overcoming
the movement to make Mexico part
of the French empire. At the head OF
a division of the army he drove the
French out of Chihuahua, recaptur-
ing the city and inficting decisive
defeat upon the enemy. During this
military campaign General Terrazas
had maintained his army out of his
private fortune. When the war was
ended the government found the ma
tional treasury empty and no funds
available with which to repay Ter
razas for his services. It was then
that the congress of Mexico ceded to
Terrazas large tracts of wild lands in
the State of Chihuahua in lieu of the
money he had advanced, and in pay
ment of his services to the country.
This was the nucleus for his vast for

interests and flee to the other side
of the Rio Grande to prevent being
taken prisoner.
Protecting His Property.
General Terrazas, notwithstanding
the fact that he had been forced 10
make his temporary home outside OF
Mexico during the last several years
has kept up a continuous bulldog
fight for the protection of his prop
erty. Very few animals are now to be
found anywhere upon Terrazas' s
ranches. They were stolen and driven
off by thousands by revolutionists
and bandits.
General Terrabas has put up re-
markable long distance fight against
Francisco Villa and his bandits, and
also against the officials of the So
called constitutional government OF
the State. 1t has been a losing fight
for him, however, as many of his
ranches and farms have been divided
among his former employees and are
operated by them for their own bene-
fit and possible profit.
Up From the Peon Class.
General Terrazas has put up a re-
filled with thrilling exploits and
armed strife from the time that he
was small boy. His parents belong
ing to the peon class, when 10 years
old he was forced to earn a liveli-
hood. He worked at odd jobs, was
taken into store as general utility
boy, and there began learning some
thing about the mercantile business.
He was advanced from one position
to another until he occupied re-
sponsible position in the establish
ment. During those struggling years
he saved as much of this earnings as
possible. Before he had reached his
majority he had started a store of
his own. 1t was small beginning,
but with the careful attention that
he gave it the business quickly ex-
panded and he became one of the
leading merchants of the city when
still a young man. 1t was about the
time that the United States and MeXi-
co were at War-in 1S4S-that Ter
razas became interested in politics.

Conquers His Shyness.

A certain surgeon who was very
young and rather shy, was invited
to dinner by lady, who was at least
so, but frivolous enough for 20. She
imagined herself very clever when
making rude remarks. At dinner she
asked the young surgeon to carve a
fowl, and, not having done so be-
fore, he failed lamentably. Instead
of trying to cover his confusion, the
hostess called attention to it pointed
ly by looking down the table and
saying loudly:
"Well, you may be a very clever
surgeon, but if 1 wanted a leg off
should not come to you to do it..
mo, madam he replied politely,
but then, you see, you are not a
chicken STRAY Stories.

Wood Car Resists Collision While
Steel Car Crumples.

Some shadow of doubt was thrown
upon the boasted invulnerability of
the steel railway coach by recent
accident north of Seattle, WASH,
says the June Popular Mechanics
Magazine. An electric interurban car
of steel and one of wood, met, head
on, at high speed. The front end of
the steel car was utterly demolished,
the crumpled metal injuring num-
Der of passengers. The forward
trucks were forced back to the center
of the car. The wood car lost it's
front vestibule, but few of its occu-
pants were hurt, and it resisted the
shock so we'll that it was able to
leave the scene on it's own power,
while derrick was needed to remove
the steel coach.

A CROESUS IN EXILE.
Story of Mex;co's Richest Man Now
Almost Ruined.

An inventory of the property hold
ings of General Luis Terrazas, who is
living in enforced exile at Ell Paso,
Texas, recently was made by the Of
fee of confiscations and the State
treasury. 1t brought to light the sur
prising fact that General Terrazas
is the owner of 100000 acres of
land, all situated in the State of Chi
huahua. Besides his landed holdings
he possesses title to more than 200
houses in Chihuahua City, several
productive mines, many manufactlT-
ing plants, and was largely interest
ed in banking affairs. According 10
the official report, all of this vast
estate, which in pre-revolutionary
days had total value of $150,000,-
900 in gold, has been taken over by
the State government under confis-
cation processes.
lit is stated in this official report
that the land is scattered all over
the State and was all we'll stocked
with cattle, horses, and mules, and
goats at the time the revolutionary
period began. Besides the ranches,
General Terrazas owns approximate
ly 100000 acres of farm lands,
most of which was in a high state of
cultivation at the time he was COM
