- Question of Justice.

We would not permit from any
other nation such treatment of our
nationals as they receive from Mex
leo. Why should We be lax with
that country
This is not merely It question OF
protecting the interests of this or
that cal property or mining opera
tion. 1t Is question Of right and
justice which affects thousands of
small farmers and investors who
have gone into Mexico under the
guarantee and protection of laws
then existing and have obeycd the
laws ~ that country and worked in
good faith for its developmen The
public has been SO engrossed. with
affairs-in Europe during the past
few years that it is not informed of
what has taken place across the
Mexican border.
when the people have full
knowledge of the facts their indig-
nation and resentment will be so
great as to force Mexico to adopt
"A more civilized course and to re-
spect American life and property"

Studying Our Prison System

The visit of the Imperial Indian Prison Com
mission to the charitable and correctional insti-
buttons of Indiana suggests the important part
which citizens of Richmond have taken in the
solution of this social problem. The state penal
farm at PutnamviEe is the OutgrOWth of move
ment fostered by the Richmond Commercial club,
and the many reforms that have been made in
penal institutions of this country are Intimately
connected with the humanitarian work of Tim
othy Nicholson.
One of the results of the tour which the Ind
ian commission is making will be the introduction
of vocational work. among the prisoners of that
country.
1t has not been so many decades ago that the
welfare of prisoner secondary consdera-
ton of his sentence to a prison. The punitive
feature of his incarceration was uppermost in
the minds of his keepers, and as a result he was
forced to endure cruelties of the most revolving
Kind. Reformation of the and his return to
society with a new view of life and desire to fol-
low the narrow path were factors that were given
little attention.
Today the theory of the Indiana correctional
institutions is to reform the man. The humani-
tartan element has taken the place of the punt
tive.
The Indian commission should be able to OBJ
tain valuable data in this state. Indiana has
the correctional problem, and it would be dis
tinct compliment to the state and the enlightened
men who fought for prison reform if the Indian
commission would be able to find methods worthy
of imitation.

The Real Issue In Great Britain

Premier Llyod George not deceived by
the demands of the rail workers of Great Britain.
1t was not standardization of wages that the rail-
road men wanted but ultimate control of the
transportation system. To obtain this end they
were willing to jeopardize the welfare of the
country and to make a fight on all the people of
the nation.
What is being sought is to overturn the regu-
larry accepted methods of government says the
Cincinnati Enquirer, land place in the hands of
certain members of class dictatorial powers
over necessary social function-the transporta-
cealn,ent of the fact that if this revolutionary
strike is successful other functions will be seized
and operated not primarily for the common good,
but for the benefit of those who capture them.
It would not tax the mental powers of school
boy to forete what the ultimate result of policy
of this kind would be. Chaos would, indeed, come
again and discord would reign in the place of the
harmony toward which all beneficial movements
are marching
Is there any wonder that Lloyd George, him
self warm friend Of labor, is denouncing the
paralysis of Great Britain's transportation sys-
TENS as anarchy? The ultimate outcome of the
success of this movement would be hopeless con-
fusion. The miners by the same token would
take possession of the mines and operate them,
not for the good of the whole social state but for
the exploitation of class. Workers in other in
dustres would follow the same course, until fin

Two Real Mayors

Seattle against the radcalism of misguided por-
ton of the population of that city and the deter

law in his municipality prove that American man.
hood has not lost its potency courage.
Mayor Hansen became national figure after
he forced the radicals to respect the law. His bio
graphy is known to every reader of the news
papers. Little so far is known of Mayor Smith,
but the courageous stand he took to uphold the
dignity of the law and the sanctity of the prin-
ciple Of order, when rope had been placed
around his neck, proves that he is rugged
American. In the face of what seemed to be
death he remained true to his duty as chief exc
c;tive of the city of Omaha
Let the men who are sworn to uphold the law
and preserve order defy death in quelling mobs
and radicals who are attempting to undermine
the stability of American institutions, and you
are establishing a precedent that will have a
wholesome effect. Mayor Smith did not try to
dodge the issue but faced it manfully. He saw
his line Of duty plainly, and the threat of the mob
was no deterrent.
This spirit of respect for the orderly process
ses of our law is what all of us need to learn. Our
institutions have been established through years
Ct painstaking building. 1t is folly to permit
them to be destroyed overnight by misguided
radicals and hysterical mobs. The conservative
spirit of America finds its voice in men like the
mayors of Seattle and Omaha

Mr.. James H. Allen suffered for
years with rheumatism. Many times
this terrible disease left him helpless
and unable to work.
He finally decided, after years of
ceaseless study, that no one can be
free from rheumatism until the accu-
mulated impurities. commonly called
uric acid deposits, were dissolved in
the joints and muscles and expelled
from the body.
With this idea in mind he consulted
physicians, made experiments and fin,
ally compounded a prescription that
quickly and completely banished every
sign and symptom of rheumatism from
his system.
He freely gave his discovery to
others who took it, with what might
be called marvellous success After
years of urging he decided 10 let suf
