his own words he will not hesitate to

Calvin Coolidge comes from a state
where they do not rush beadlong into
unnecessary and unwise political sit
uations, state which gave the nation
two of the great figures of the Civil
War period, Stephen A. Douglas, Lin
coins opponent for the presidency in
1860. and Thaddeus Stevens, leader of
"black" Republicans in the House.
Later Vermont gave to the country
two vice presidents. Chester A. Arthur
who succeeded to the presidency when
Garfield was assassinated and Levi

jamin Harrison.
Political buccaneers who already
are planning to shelve Coolidge next
year should heed the warning of his.

Washington newspaper correspon-

washington. ID. C.. Aug. 1.-The
untimelv death OF President Hard,
ms has brought on a discussion OF
tbe duties and burdens of the Presl'
dental office. Distinguished pubic
men are now engaged in. debating
legislation with a means OF relieving
the President.
The most definite proposal Of reliei
Thus far advanced is that an Official

NOT 60 TO the heart of the thing we
seek TO correct. We cannot really
lift the burdens which beset the
President at every turn until We find
a way to free him from those things
which worry and harass a Presl-
dent: those things that take ms
thoughts away from proper consid-
Grafton of the real questions OF I'M
portance affecting the country's vel
fare and which daily press upon him
for solution.
The trials Of the Presidency about
which we complain are inherent in
the tenure of the office itself. 1t is
only an unfavorable happening like
the death of a President that brings
Ms face 10 face with stern fact,
and that fact is that within a decade
the duties of the Presidential office
have increased in alarming fashion.
More and more our people have de-
handed Presidential leadership of an
individual and special nature SO that
with the tremendous growth OF the
country, the varied needs OF AZ pros
porous and growing states, the ad-
ministration of Philippine Islands,
Porto Rico and our widely separated
insular possessions the trials and
cares OF the President have broad

524 BALES GINNED
Worms Do Some Damage to LOckhar
Cotton.

Lockhart, Tex, Aug. 11.-Total cot.
ton receipts for this season up to the
close of business Monday night i.
524 bales. This is near the record
mark for Lockhart this season of the
year. The crop is opening fast and
owing to the dry hot weather and
sufficient help is being gathered as
fast as it opens. Notwithstanding the
dry hot weather, which has caused
some shedding of young bolls and
squares, the worms have done more
or less damage in certain portions OF
the county.
The price is ranging around % IL
cents, and it is estimated now that the
crop will not exceed last years re-
ceipts and will probably fall below
last seasons record.

Makes q Family Supply
 of Cough Remedy
 Really better than ready-mad cough syrups, and saves about f2. Easily and quickly prepared.
;7zTTTszs7s157s7s157sl57s7s7

If you combined the curative proper. ties of every known ready made" cough remedy. you probably could not get as much real curative power as there IS in this simple homemade cough syrup. which Is easily prepared in few minutes
 Get from any druggist 21a ounces of Pinex, pour it into a pint bottle and fill the bottle with syrup, using either rlain qranulated sugar syrup, clarified eired. The result is a full pint of really better cough syrup than you could buy ready-made for three times the money. Tastes pleasant and never spoils.
 This Pinex and Syrup preparation gets right at the cause of a cough and gives almost immediate relief. It loosens the phlegm, stops the nasty throat tickle and heals the sore, irritated membranes so gently and easily that it is really astonishing.
 A days use will usually overcome the ordinary cough and for bronchitis, croup, hoarseness and bronchial asthma there is nothing better.
 Pinex is a most valuable concentrated compound of genuine Norway pine ex- tract, and has been used for generations to break up severe coughs.
 To avoid disappointment. ask your druggist for "215 ounces of Piney" with full directions, and don't accept any thing else. Guaranteed to give absolute satisfaction or money promptly re- funded. The Pinex O., Ft. Wayne, S

By The Associated Press.
 Berlin, Oct 2.-1t is officially an- nounced that the participants. in the insurrection at kuestrin yesterday numbering about 400 men, have been captured and disarmed. The rebels lost one killed and several wounded. There were no losses among the gov ernment forces. The troops ordered to Kuestrin as endorsements are re- turning to their stations.
 In the opinion of officials here the revolt actually served useful pur- pose inasmuch as it gave notice that the government was prepared to put down immediately any attempts at instruction.
