GENERAL WAVE OF DISSATISFACTION GROWS AMONG COLORED POPLE OF STATE AGAINST SEPARATE SCHOOL LAW. There is an apparent wave of dissatisfaction spreadong among Many Hardships Worked on Colored Schols Because of the Law. the colored people of Oklahoma because of the separate school law of this state and in all probability a fight against this law will be waged in the near future. The colored schols of the state, as a rule, are below the standard and according to the opinion of those familiar with the Oklahoma school laws, colored people in the larger cities are taxed for the support of schols from which their children receive no benefit because the law puts all colored schols in charge of the County Commissioners and the County Superintendent, the salaries of the teachers and the maintenance of the schools for colored children coming from this source. Often in the cities bonds are voted for school improvement and the colored people are taxed for such improvement when in fact the yderive no benefit therefrom. In many places in the state the term of the colored schols are cut short some times as much as six months and the County Commissioners give as their reason that there is not enough funds for the colored schools. But in these counties the white schools always run the full nine months. Recently in McIntosh colony at Eufaula, the colored schols were ordered to run two months and close, but the nolored people here appealed to the County Judge and he ordered the Commissioners to allow the school to run at least three months. The white shols in McIntosh will all run the full nine months. These conditions have become unbearable to the colored patrons and they are planning to start a vigorous fight against it. Eiforts will be made to have the law repealed at the next session of the legislature and another law enacted which will guarantee equity in the school facilities and accommodations.

The girl was grabbed by a man as she was walking within forty feet of her home. She was dragged into the underbrush. The affair has arroused the community to high pitch and a lynching is feared if the girl's assailant is caught Permanant Organization to be Perfected Next Week Permanant Organization to be Perfected Next Week OKLAHOMA CITY, Ckla, Sept. 28. A temporary Colored State Democratic League was formed here Monday afternoon. Only a few of the leaders in the State movement were in person, but a number were there by aprexy. The object of this organization is to bring about better conditions for the race in Oklahoma and to do this through the Democratic Party. The permanent organization will be prefected in this city Wednesday October 11. Colored editors of the State will meet here on that day and it will be said the political situation in Oklahoma will be come into at length by the editors on both sides of the fence. BURBANK OUT FOR WILSON. "THE GREATEST STATESMAN" Announcing his support of President Wilson, Luther Burbank, the horticulturist wizard of California, said: "I believe him to be the greatest statesman we have ever had." Mr. Burbank, the Edison of scientific horticulture, declared that without reserve he endorsed the position announced a week earlier by Thomas A. Edison. Both Burbank and Edison have been life-long Republicans. Edison put it this way: "Times are too serious to talk in terms of Republicanism or Democracy. When it's America that is at stake men have got to vote as Americans. A fool or a coward would have had the United States in all sorts of trouble. As it is, we are at peace, the country was never more prosperous, and we have the strength that comes with honor and integrity of purpose." AN ANTI-CAMPAIGN? As a candidate Mr. Hughes has not yet come up to expectations. The trouble is that he has not yet told the American people positively and concretely just what he proposes to do if elected President. The American people want to know what constructive program Mr. Hughes has to offer them. They demand of a leader a demonstration of leadership. There is a serious danger that the Republican candidate may become an "anti." And it never pays in this world to be an anti-anything.—The Independent. Shadow Lawn is a residence for the next few weeks, will give its or ocupant an opportunity to get accustomed to the after-election gloom. FARMERS IGNORED BY REPUBLICANS But Democratic Administration Quickly Gave Them Justice in Rural Credits. Don't forget Mr. Farmer, that through your Farmers' National Congress, National Grange, National Farmers' Union, American Society of Equity, and similar organizations you have for years demanded and have imported Republican administrations for legislation you needed. WHAT DID YOU GET? Through all the years since 1864 the Republican Party was deaf and blind to the farmer's financial needs. This in the face of the fact that successful systems of Rural Credits were in operation throughout Europe for a century. When this great Democratic measure was put to vote in the Senate on May 4, 1916, only five Republicans dared vote against it! Three of them were on the sub-committee who wrote the Republican Platform of 1916. Was it because you were not Big Interests? You were, many of you, highly financed, and High Finance held the mortgage—and to that extent you belagged to High Finance. But you paid big interest to associate with Big Interests. A stack of wheat wasn't as good collateral as a sheaf of scraps of paper held by a stock gambler. Nor did the Political Bosses of the Republican Party care to give you financial justice. They were too busy "protecting" themselves. THE PROMISES OF THE DEMOCRATIC PLATFORM OF 1912 — written in courage and honesty and with sympathetic understanding of the needs of every honest American interest—HAVE BEEN KEPT. The Republican Party refused to do these things, which the prosperity of the American Farmer required. The Republican presidential candidate, Charles E. Hughes, denounces the Democratic party and President Wilson for having done these things. Where Does Your Interest Lie? (From Farmers' Panphlet Issued by the Democratic National Committee.) BURLESON'S "THREE STRIKE" "The Democratic party seems to have enough capacity to run the Post Office Department. Postmaster General Burleson has deposited a check for $320,000 with Secretary McAdoo holding the profits of the fiscal year of 1813." Sounds like a Democratic campaign orater, doesn't it? But it isn't; it is the Phladelphia Public Ledger, a paper that is supporting Hughes, telling its host of readers about merely one of the deeds of the Wilson Administration. Continues the Ledger; "The Secretary of the Treasury piles that his department has experienced the sensation of receiving a political surplus only three times, and these three times have been under the Administration of President Wilton and Mr. Burleson. But we have no hope that this will satisfy Mr. Hughes. He will tell the next audience he gets hold of that the service is not nearly so good as it used to be when Postmaster Generals were Republicans and there was a deficit every year, the amount being something over $17,000,000."

Stradford NO.50 Interest Revived in Booker T. Memo Fund Cotton Prices Cause Response From Rural School's Mass Meetings Arranged in Cities—Bap. tist Convention Urghes Support to Fund Tuskogee Institute, Ala., Sept 22,—With the coming of fall and the passing of hot weather, the country is outlining down to hard work Schools are crowded to capacity and business offices are looking forward to a year of prosperity. This is election year and cotton is being at sixteen cents. Loyal men and women of the race are, as a consequence of these conditions, again turning their attention to the brooker T. Washington Memorial Fnud. Voluntary letters are beginning n to come in pledging contributions and outlining arrangements for mass meetings which will hold in various parts of the country this fall Quite a number of rural schools which closed last spring before April in, the day set aside for school children to give to the Fund, have asked to be premitted to raise collections this fall. These teachers in infinitely keeping their promises and have written to say that they will send in larger sums than they first thought possible because of the generally better conditions which prevail now in the country districts as against those of the early spring, when there was so much talk of panky times. It is hoped that other teachers of city and rural schools who for one reason or another failed to lift collections from school children last spring will not fail to do so tails fall. The Memorial Fund Committees in various cities which held over their mass meetings and active civil as until fall are in many instances getting effective work done in bringing the colored people to the duty of responding to this appeal for one-eighth of the Two-Million Dollar Memorial Fund to perpetuate the work of the late Booker T. Washington — that is, $250,000. Of the sum which the white people were asked to give to this Fund they have given more than half, while the colored people have not yet given one-fifth of the amount they were asked to give. The colored people of Baltimore, Maryland, have pledged themselves to raise ONE PER CENT OF THE AMOUNT TO BE GIVEN BY THE COLORED PEOPLE. This will be $2,500. Deciding upon a denifite amount to be raised is one of the important things, because it outlines for the people just the amount or work they have before them. Besides it gives poise and dignity to the campaign in a city and affords better opportunity for organizing. At the monster mass meeting which they will have in Baltimore on November 18th, there will be an excellent program and on that date the churches, schools, fraternal organizations, nd the clubs and societies of various sorts will make their returns, following a whirlwind campaign of the city. Harry T Pratt, Dean William Pickens and other prominent Baltimore letters to Tuskogee Institute recitizens have written most encouragarding the outlook for a successful effort In his annual address before the National Baptist Convention which met at Savannah, Georgia, during the week of September 4th, Dr E. C. Morris, the president, called upon the members of the convention and the prominent men and women of the race to help raise this $250,000 from among the colored people. Dr Morr's said: The National Baptist Convention will greatly honor itself if the hundreds of prominent leaders who are gathered here will throw the full weight of their influence into the efforts now being made to raise our part of the Two-Million-Dollar Memorial Fund to perpetuate the work founded by Dr Continued on page four DEG O THLE DING 6 WALTER K, HILL ©O and JO BRANDT a ?

Chockro stood where he could look down into the open trap, reach out his hand and touch the switch, or face about and address his taunts to young Lund without further effort than to turn his body by a slight movement of his feet upon the floor, “I've got your girl ina trap, and I'll pay you both off at once,” Chockro fairly shouted, “Ill turn the water in and let you listen while she drowns.” Young Lund desperately tugged at his bonds He dreaded the Hindu's threat and as Chockro reached over and threw down the handle of the electric switch, the sound of rushing water came to Lund’s eara, Peg screamed in terror, Chockro looked down upon her and laughed with flendish derision. Lund writhed upon the floor, and to Chockro his ef forte seemed purposeless. But Lund’ brain was at work, even if his body ‘was made temporarily useless by his relentless bonds. ‘The girl in the trap below saw the waters rushing In to overcome her.

While the counterfeiters were beat: ing back and forth among the piles of lumber, Peg was making her way swiftly, but cautiously, out of the maze of timbers which served her so well as shelter and also effectively to baie her pursuers, She soon found herself at the end of the lumber yard and near & network of railroad tracks, upon which freight cars stood in long rows. On she ran, out into the railroad ‘yard, and made her way among the ‘cars. She fled without purpose other than to escape her pursuers, but kind: ly fato was guiding her steps. As she rounded the end of a long row of cars her delighted gaze suddenly fell upon the circus train, lying on the opposite side of the main Hine of tracks. When Peg dashed into the sleeper where she hoped to find Flip, the car was crowded with performers. Old Flip was seated on the edge of his berth. He had been out all night searching around the lot, inquiring about Peg from everyone he met, and had Just returned to the show train, “utterly discouraged, ‘Tho other per. formers were trying to comfort the ‘disconsolate old clown when Peg dashed through the door of the car and with a wild ery of joy threw her self into the arms of her daddy,” Their fond embrace was of short du- ration, for Peg made haste to tell, in brief and excited sentences, of her adventures in “The House of Mystery.” She begged the show people to follow her back to the counterfeiters’ den and Fescue the person, whoever he might be, that was being held prisoner there. Flip insisted that Peg stay close te him as the party dashed across the freight yards in the early morning ‘They ran through the lumber yard, Peg retracing her steps as best she could, without, of course, climbing among the rows of up-ended timbers, Chockro and his gang had given up hope of finding Peg and had assem. bled in front of the den to discuss im- mediate plans, when the sharp-eyed Hindu discovered Peg and her res culng party rapidly approaching. “Quick, Into the house, and lay low,” cried the Hindu. And he led his gang into “The House of Mystery.” The advance guard of circus folk saw the door through which Chockro had entered, and were not surprised when they found it locked.

Then the rescuers crowded into the house and followed close to Peg as she cautiously directed progress to- ward the room where young Lund was still lying, bound helpless, on the floor, ‘Thus tho rescuing party found the object of their search, and quick prog ross was made in lovsening the rope that bound Lund so securely, When the show folks were about to retrace their steps, Chockro and his gang burst in upon them, running pell mell down a short flight of stairs, and en- gaging the rescuers in a rough-and. tumble fight, The counterfeiters were matched in strength by the athletic circus performers, and the battle was proceeding recklessly when matters ‘suddenly took an utterly unlooked-tor turn, ‘Four men with drawn revolvers ap: peared at the head of the stairs, down which the counterfeiters had just rushed to pounce updn the showmen, and the loader of the new arrivals sharply commanded the combatants to hold up their hands. “We are members of the secret service,” declared the leader of the new arrivals, "Nobody leaves this room until they stand a search.” Then the officers proceeded to make all hands identify themselves, ‘Tho circus crowd easily explained their presence, Chockro had sent his gang into the fray and then, without risking his own skin, had made his getaway. Taking the counterfeiters with them, the secret servico men left the house, and permitted the circus people to return to their train, When young Lund and Peg emerged, with the show folks, from “The House of Mystery,” the young doctor, Peg and Flip walked slowly along tn a Uttle group by themselves, As they proceeded toward the show train Lund and Peg briefly compared and gave Fitp the benefit of their combined experiences. By the time the circus folk had re turned to the show cars, young Lund had decided upon his immediate plans. He told Peg and Fiip that he would go home, for a few dvys, ax his father would probably want to advise with him about the futers of the show. WW RE 8! eet 6 When Mrs, Lund returned home from her hurried automobile trip to the counterfeiting den she owned and controlled, she was greatly surprised to be informed by the butler that Chockro had returned during her ab- sence, and left word that he had an important letter to give her. ‘This information came to her early in the morning following the fire at the circus, and only a few hours after sho had reached home from her all- night ride, She was passing through the entrance hall, on her way to make preparations again to go to “The House of Mystery,” when she heard Doctor Lund in conversation with someone in the library. Mrs. Lund stealthily approached the door and listened while her husband talked with Jack Boygne, the man he had sent to the circus for the letter Flip possessed—the very letter that Mrs, Lund had reason to believe was right then safe in the possession of Chockro, her Hindw servant. “How could I get the letter,” she heard Jack Boygne exclaim, “when the circus burnt up? ‘There was so much ere that I couldn't do a thing on the letter Job.” | “I don't care if the show did burn, [the letter means more to me than the Jcireus does,” said Doctor Lund, “You've got to get that letter, I tell you—and just to give you another chance T'll newly outfit the show and open ft again right away.” Mrs, Lund indulged in a smile of quiet satisfaction as she passed on upstairs to her room. When she was leaving the house to take her automo bile, Doctor Lund and Jack Boygne departed through another door and took the train for the disabled circus With all speed Mra, Lund proceeded again to “The House of Mystery.” When Mra, Lund reached the parlor sho intuitively felt that she was being followed. When she closed the door. after entering, she sensed that some one had observed her. She immediately suspected that her counterfeiting operations had been traced to headquarters, There was but one way out—the chance that men were still in the op- erating room to work the secret ele- vator, The chair stood in its accus- tomed place in the middle of the room. Mrs. Lund seated herself and pressed the signal. Luck was with her, for the trap began to slowly descend, Once she had disappeared through the par- lor floor, the opening to the trap was mechanically closed, by the trick sub- stitution of another chair and section of the floor, Mrs, Lund descended to the lower level, passed through the secret en- trance and was safely out of the den when the secret service operatives, who thought they had her trapped, en- tered the parlor and found the room deserted. ‘They left the house, assembled the prisoners they had under guard among the lumber piles and departed, And as the officers and their prison- ers walked down the street, Mrs, Lund passed them in her swift automobile. ‘That afternoon Doctor Lund arrived to discuss with his manager the ar- rangements for reopening his circus. Doctor Lund commissioned his man- ager to work out the details of reju- venating the circus. All of the stock and trained animals were safe, and much of the regular equipment of the show had been rescued from the flames. It was decided to haul the circus train to Doctor Lund’s home town and there equip the circus anew, Tole grams were sent to the tentmakers for a new equipment of canvas, Or ders were wired to replace the seats, lights and miscellaneous property that the fire had destroyed. ‘The owner of the show left on the first train for home, and the next day the circus cars arrived at winter quar. ters soon to be sent upon the road for & now start. Notification was given to the advance forces to change the exhibition dates in various towns, and to route the show for the rest of the season, taking the new opening date ‘as the basis of caloulations, = al method of individual life at home, Just as though nothing had happened. Mr. and Mrs, Lund either knew or sue pected the game the other was play- ing. Neither of them ventured even & word to their son regarding his briet absence from home, There was an open truce of three-cornered dimen- sions in the Lund mansion. Young Lund resumed his athletic training under his instructor, Jack Boygne and exercised his accustomed freedom of action in his daily life. With a desire to avold scandal of gos- sip in his home town, young Lund dented himself the pleasure of Peg's soclety. He made one trip to winter quarters, | where everybody was busy with the new equipment, and although he made no special effort to find or communt- cato with Peg, there won eagerness In his gaze an be watched for the girl he loved. Young Lund did n.< know that, for the purpose of avoiding complica- tlons, Flip had prevailed upon Peg to go with him to quiet resort in the country and rest the few days that they would be at liberty. Peg consented rather reluctantly— and Filp understood why. Ho soothed her with his fatherly caresses and told her that the days would quickly pass and insisted that rest, after her ex- citing experiences, would be vastly beneficial, And, accordingly, they re- paired to a qutet resort In the vicinity where Peg immensely enjoyed her restful vacation and once more be- came her natural, buoyant and ingenw- ous self, ‘The opening performance of the re- Labilitated show was little more than & tryout of the equipment. The new catuvas was raised and “rehearsed” ‘The big working organization was te assembled and the places of those who had wandered away during the layoff were filled. For it was coming har- vest time in the surrounding country and higher wages than the circus paid were attractive to some of the “razor backs” and workingmen tn minor po- sitions. Doctor Lund ordered that there should be only one performance and that the show should begin earlier than customary in the evening—for he had planned to give another party to celebrate the reopening of his show. ‘The “towners” (as circus folk call people who are not connected with the show) decided that Doctor Lund was “becoming eccentric.” ‘The stirring ovents that marked the lawn party he had just previously given were fresh in memory. Fip, among all the performers in the show, took the announcement of the festivities seriously. ‘To the oth ers it meant another jolly night—for they were all too sympathetlc to refer to Peg's unhappy affliction and the dis- tressing incident occasioned by her at tack of convulsions at the first Lund party. But Filp had been too keenly affected by the circumstances to look upon the coming event with anything short of apprehensive dread, Peg, lighthearted and gay, heard the announcement with real delight. Completely restored in health, nerves and spirit by her brief rest, the girl could see nothing but an evening of pleasure in prospect. And then, too, “ne” would be there! This last confession of her inmost thoughts Peg made to no one but herself. Sho had even avoided dis- cussing young Doctor Lund with Fiip save only when the old clown insisted. But Fiip understood, and realized with- out his little girl telling him that she dearly loved the handsome young physiclan—and Flip wondered how it would all end. The reopening of the show passed off without unusual tneident, so well fare such organizations usually man- aged and equipped. Everything worked smoothly and as far as the actual per- formance was concerned there was nothing to indicate that the tour had | been interrupted. The performers were glad to be in harness again, and there was an atmosphere of happiness | and satisfaction on every hand. | ‘Tho Lund mansion was again bril- Mantly lighted and the grounds deco- || rated for the celebration: Most of the guests who had been in attendance up- | on Doctor Lund’s previous party were again assembled. Tho circus people Jarrived soon after tho performance had concluded, and with dancing, mu- | ste and gayety the affair was progress- | ing splendidly, ‘An observant person would have dis. | covered a change in the attitude of Doctor and Mrs. Lund toward each | other since their last public appear- | ance, Instead of recc'ving their com- pany together, they kept apart during _| the entire evening and although thelr || attitude was not conspicuous it was | clearly apparent that they were not || congenial. Fup, in particular, noticed _| this and he was further perplexed, | Young Lund sought Peg’s society |immediately upon her arrival, She One of the men, talking for ail three, said in reply to Doctor Lund’s demands for an explanation: “We are secret service operatives and our visit here is the result of our having received this letter, by special delivery, only a few hours ago.” Taking the letter in hand, Doctor Lund read: “It you will be at the clr cus party at Doctor Lund’s tonight you will find the ringleader of the counter. felters.” ‘There was no signature. Doctor Lund was astounded. He protested that there could be no Ike Mhood of truth in the assertion con- veyed in the letter. But the secret service men were insistent, and thelr actions and loud talk attracted the at- tention of the guests. In a twinkling there was an atmosphere of suppressed excitement everywhere, ‘The dancing stopped, the musicians ceased playing, and the guests began to gather in groups around the excited men. Young Lund and Peg had left thetr seclusion in the conservatory and were on the point of indulging in a dance af merge Her. when the music stopped. They noticed the crowd around Doctor Lund and the three strangers, and quickly joined the group of curious and excited guests. From another room Mrs. Lund en- tered, and working her way through the group crowding around Doctor Lund and the secret service men, soon caught the drift of the discussion. Her face blanched for an instant, and then, by an effort recovering her self-pos- session, Mrs. Lund safd in a command- ing voice: “Doctor Lund, why don't you have these intruders bodily ejected from the house. They have no right to come here in this way and disturb our guests.” Before Doctor Lund could make re- ply the spokesman for the sect t serv- ice officers responded: “We are officers of the law, come here to find tho leader of a gang of counterfeiters, and we are going to stay here until we are rendy to leave. ‘The first person to lay a hand upon one of us does so at bis peril.” And threo revolvers were whipped from the pockets of the officers in @ simultaneous move, Peg screamed, as if in terror at the sight of the revolvers. Old Flip sprang to her side, his face paling with ap- prehension, He looked at his watch— it was close to the midnight hour, “Do be careful, eg dear,” said Fup, “don't excite yourself, We must hur ry away from here.” And he attempt- ed to gently draw her aside, with the intention of leading her from the room. But it was too late. Peg’s voice raised to a hysterical scream as she cried: “I sent a letter to the secret sory fee, Doctor Lund, A member of your family {s the head of a gang of coun- erfeiters.” Then the circus girl laughed wildly, as Flip struggled to restrain her. ‘The secret service men were quick to reach Peg’s side, Doctor Lund’s unfelgned astonishment made him speechless under the girl's accusation. Mrs, Lund’s face was drawn instinc- tively into hard, set lines, as she stood within a few feet of the excited girl, rigid as a statue, “Who do you mean?” the officer shouted, putting bis hand on Peg’ shoulder with a rough clesp. ‘When the secret service operative grabbed Peg, young Lund got into ac- tion, He struck the forearm of the officer, loosening bis hold upon the girl, and shouted: “Keep your hands off that girl, you big bully. I'm able to protect her from your kind.” Peg’s hysteria was now at its height. Poor olf Flip tried with what strength he had to restrain her, but her natural vitality, augmented by the nervous ferocity of her affiction, made the old clown's efforts utterly useless, ‘The girl screamed again and again, striking out with her hands and feet after the manner her attacks usually took effect, and before young Lund could realize her purpose, she caught him by the hair of the head and vigor- ously shook him back and forth, de spite bis struggles to resist. ‘Then she threw him from her grasp and pointing an accusing finger straight at young Lund the girl cried out: “There is your man! He ts the ead- er of the counterfeiters.” ‘Then Peg gave one me wild hye terical laugh, and swooned in Fly's arms. (END OF SIXTH EPISODE) Labor Warfare Destroys Industry Which Gives Life to Employers and Workers By ETHELBERT STEWART Chief Statistician, U.S, Bureau of Labor Statistics ‘There can be no industrial peace until both sides to a labor argu- dnent want industrial peace, and when both sides really want peace, and not a fight, a settlement is bound to come. There must be concession on both sides and a willingness on both sides to abide by a settlement. But, unfortunately, in America it seems that there is a large class of men, by no means confined either to the laboring or to the capitalistic class, who prefer fighting, for its own sake, to industrial peace and all that such peace means, Back in 1886 the Stove Foundrymen and the Tron Molders’ union locked horns with the manufacturers in the stove industry. It began with the Bridge Beach strike in St. Louis, and soon involved the entire cour try. They fought until both sides were utterly exhausted and each had barely a single breath left. Finally both sides used that last breath to say, “Let us forget it.” They saw that if they did not stop then and stop forever, the stove industry would go to pieces, and for the salvation of the industry to which they all owed life they came together, settled their differences, appointed committees of arbitration from both sides, and established machinery for the settlement of all disputes that might pose sibly arise in the future. Each year since that time these’ committees have met and adjusted amicably all the differences in the stove industry. However, that is the only industry in the United States which has Deen at peace for thirty years; the only industry which apparently has searned that warfare is destructive, not so much to the individuals who participate in it, as it is destructive to the very industry itself. When that fact is once firmly grasped by all strikers and by all lockers-out, the labor disturbances will depreciate astoundingly, Work of Clubs Is Chiefly Responsible for Awakening Among Women of Country By MPS. GRACE JULIAN CLARKE of Indianapolis Z Clubs are largely roupousille for the wonderful awakening among women all over the land. Through clubs women have come to a realiza- tion of themselves and of other women, also of the conditions of life arownd them, ‘They see many ways in which they could help to bring about wholesome changes but for the “sex distinction,” which the grant- ing of equal suffrage will go far toward wiping out. ‘The time will doubt- Jess come when there will be no longer any need of women’s clubs, and they will then cease to exist. But L very much doubt if the millennium is near. Women must go forward at their own gait—not just as men, or any set of men, prescribe. ‘They have many things to learn, things that men cannot teach them, and it seems to me they must work out some problems by themselves, in clubs and federations. ‘Their long journey along a road beset with every conceivable difficulty and discouragement has sharpened their wits and made them peculiarly apt in some directions. Gradually they will take their places alongside of men in all departments of life, but for some time to come there will be plenty of work for clubs of women. When equal suffrage is an accomplished fact all over the country there will still be ample opportunity for usefulness on the part of clubs and federations. In clubs women learn the value of art, music and litera- ture in community life; they study about conservation, civil service reform, city problems, all that relates to children, and the care of the sick, insane and criminal. It is very important that the citizen-mothers of the future have such training schools as clubs afford for the considera- tion of all questions that women must help to solve. Great Growth of Foreign Trade Is Building Up U.S. Merchant Marine Chi of Fela Bee of Prete OS Ooo Cosrn ‘There is nothing wrong with our foreign trade, We have been going into the foreign markets and getting our share of the trade of the world. We have passed from the class of nations which are dispensers of raw materials to the class of manufacturing nations, ‘Before the war we stood third as an exporter of commodities, ‘Today we have three times the trade of any other nation in the world Our merchant marine has increased more during the last two years than it had during the 50 years previous, Our shipyards are working to their capacity and are turning out an astounding number of vessels. ‘The fact that we had a small merchant marine has handicapped our foreign trade somewhat during the war, but we are gaining and our laws are becoming such that we can build up @ great shipping industry. Up to the present the bulk of American foreign trade has been sold abroad by indirect agencies. ‘The most important of these are export commission houses, export merchants and manufacturers’ agents, For- eign trade is no mystery. It is similar to domestic trade. It requires a well-planned and organized policy or establishment of permanent prices, and an attempt to adapt the products to the needs of the customer, Conscription a Noble Word if It Can Be Made Synonymous With Citizenship By DR. JOHN H. FINLEY ‘Cowmissioner of Education, State of New York Tam wishing that everybody might be conscripted to give some serv- ice to the state, under a plan of national constructive preparedness ; that every selfish luxury and waste and indulgence be commandeered, every useful skill and science and art and industry be called to the colors periodically, and a general mobilization for the common defense of our ideals be compelled by our vision of an America that has a mission beyond commercialized supremacy. I would make “conscript” a noble word by making it synonymous with “citizen” in a republic with a mission and an ideal worth fighting for. ‘Till that time comes, may every, American man do what every Cambridge student has done, conscript himself, and each one offer to his country the best that he has to give. And may American institutions do what Cambridge has done, not await government mobilization but mobilize themselves.

The lodge room for all see the race and like the church and there.

The lodge room for all secret orders have an everlasting grip on the race and like the church is doing some real good for the race here and there. Next to the church and the lodge rooms comes the republican party which the average white man regards as a natural part of the black man's religion, basing such conclusions on the negroes fifty years bondage to the republican party. THE EXCEPTION The one exception mentioned he man, sornds funny, doesn't The average negro has more od. He wil curse and abus- ment of the race, out of he e race, but in the presence thesame—anything but ab ion mentioned is the negroes sunny, doesn't it? but it's as trogro has more faith in the white use and abuse the white man is, out of hearing of the white the presence of the white man thing but absusive or hostile. The one exception mentioned is the negroes implicit faith in the white man, sornds funny, doesn't it? but it's as true as nature itself. The average negro has more faith in the white man than he has in God. He wil curse and abuse the white man generally for his ill treatment of the race, out of hearing of the white man and to others of the race, but in the presence of the white man his attitude is usually thesame—anything but absusive or hostile. He wild declare allegiance to his own enterprises over night, only to rise with the sun the next morning "beating it back" to the white man to the dertiment of his own enterprises. He may be treated courteously by the white man, he may be treated deciddly the reverse, but Mr. Negro, true to this peculiar tradition, simply smiles frowns, complains or chuckles and goes back for more. With reluctance we beg here to refer to one of the leading churches of our city to exemplify our claims. The church had been virtually wrecked by internal strife growing out of an upheaval among the members, of which the pastor was the bone of contention. They, the members of the church, prominent race men on both sides of the controversy, were at dagger points with each other and resulting directly from this cause a battle royal fist fight was staged on the grounds of the church where a Sunday school convention was in progress, and later a shooting affair which near reulted in murder. The would-be assassin was jailed, tried and acquitted. All of this following an injunction suit against the pastor of the church to keep him out. All of thi required legal talent, and one would suppose not knowing, that these leading church workers and race men, all colored, would have preferred having their legal entanglement unravelled in the court over which a colored man presided, but true to their irresistable tradition, they went into the white man's court. One would also suppose that though in the white man's court these race leaders would have employed their own lawyers, but they did not. Considerable money was spent, both sides having lawyers, but not one penny of it went to negro lawyers. This is the style of the average negroes religion and it's the WRONG RELIGION. This is the one line exception and since exceptions mainly prove the rule we submit that the white man, with all his faults, is dearer to the average negro than God himself. The Railroads of the United States employ 350,000 section hands who walk their beat in storm and rain and whose brawn and brain make possible our great transportation systems. Their compensation is not sufficient to feed and clothe their families and their bright-faced children are sentenced by American civilization to a life of ignorance and poverty. These employees are as important, as efficient and as loyal as many of the higher waged employees and their rights should also be reviewed by congress. SURE RESULTS FOR HOME AND FOREIGN ADVERTISERS.

WHAT WOULD YOU HAVE DONE? HUGHES DODGES ISSUE ON EIGHT HOUR LAW Attacks Wilson's Plan but Won't Tell Public What He Would Have Done. ONLY WAY TO AVERT STRIKE Republican Nominee Is Asked to Declare If He Would Have Vetoed the Bill With Certain Assurance of Industrial Disaster. So busy has been Charles E. Hughes criticising the deeds of the Wilson Administration that he has had little time, or has purposely evaded, telling the public what he would have done had he been President under similar circumstances. Lately Mr. Hughes has turned his attacks upon President Wilson's successful settlement of the crisis in the railroad world by causing to be passed by Congress the Adamson eight-hour bill. Mr. Hughes has characterized this action as a "surrender to force"; he is "opposed to being dictated to by any power on earth before the facts are known"; and he would not act until he had had a "fair investigation and candid treatment." Taking issue with the Republican candidate's attitude the New York Times, in an editorial, asks: "WHAT WOULD MR. HUGHES HAVE DONE?" "Well, what way would Mr. Hughes have taken?" continues the Times. "What would he have done? Here was Mr. Wilson's position: The brotherhood refused arbitration, the railroad presidents did not accept the settlement Mr. Wilson proposed, granting the eight-hour standard day with provision for an impartial inquiry into its working. There was no law on the statute books to enforce arbitration. "The President knew, knew with certainty and beyond question, that he could not get such a law from the Congress now in session. The sure and inevitable alternative to his acceptance of the eight-hour standard day measure was a strike, the suspension of railway service, freight and passenger, all over the country, beginning on the morning of Sept. 4th. WOULD HUGHES HAVE DONE IT? "Mr. Hughes 'would not surrender to anybody in the country.' Then he would have surrendered the country to the disturbance, immeasurable loss, and peril of a strike. Would he, in fact, have done that? Had he been President, confronted by that situation, would Mr. Hughes have brought on a strike by refusing to sign the bill granting a wage increase? There was the strike in plain sight, a few hours away, sure to come. Would Mr. Hughes have vetoed the bill? On the contrary, would he not have done just what Mr. Wilson did, sign it? "The Republican candidate stands for two things: 'First, for the principle of fair, impartial, thorough, candid, arbitration; and second, for legislation on facts according to the necessities of the case.' Mr. Wilson stands for those two things and, much more, has pledged himself to use all his influence to secure them. "What more could Mr. Hughes do? Would it be too much to ask the Republican candidate to put a little common fairness into his speeches? Is he afraid to tell his audiences what the President actually did urge upon Congress? "As a true champion of arbitration, President Wilson recommended that arbitration judgments be made records of a court of law, in order that their interpretation and enforcement may not lie with the parties to the dispute, but 'with an impartial and authoritative tribunal.' It was his purpose in this recommendation to provide against future emergencies, to prevent the recurrence of such dangers as then confronted him and the country. ADVICE TO RAILROADS. "The people of the United States are not going to be put off with the misinformation as to what the President did to avert a strike and to prevent the threat of future strikes. We have reason believe that the full revelation of what he did, what he tried to do and what he nearly succeeded in doing in the White House conferences would put such a face upon the matter that Republican efforts to make an issue of it would fall entirely flat. "But the people do know, for it was before them in the President's address to Congress, that he proposed, not a single emergency act, but a broad program of legislation to meet a public need and permanently remove a public danger. It was a program which we are convinced the railroads would be very wise to accept in its entirety. "Certainly it seems to us that they are ill advised to pray for the election of Mr. Hughes, who, if we take him at his word, would have brought on the strike, with all its irreparable injuries to the country's business and peril for the country's peace." "WATCHFUL WAITING" HAS SAVED A NATION'S LIFE Mexican Envoy's Tribute to President Wilson's Policy. Convincing testimony to the wisdom and Justice of President Wilson's Mexican policy is brought from Mexico itself by Luis Cabrera, one of Mexico's commissioners at the joint Mexican-American Conference now in session at New London, Conn. "I do not care to discuss politic LUIS CABRESA MEXICAN PEACE ADMINISTRATOR UNDERWOOD & UNDERWOOD or international questions of any kind," said Senor Cabrera in a recent interview, "but I will say that in official circles of Mexico President Wilson is looked upon as one of the greatest men the United States ever has had as a leader. He is calm and considerate, and his much abused 'watchful waiting' policy has probably saved the life of my nation and prevented your country from entering into a needless struggle." DEMOCRATIC PROMISES TO FARMERS FULFILLED Benefits Under Wilson Set Forth in Official Pamphlet. The Democratic platform of 1972 made this promise to the farmers of America: "Of equal importance with the question of currency reform is the question of rural credits or agricultural finance. Therefore we recommend that an investigation of agricultural credit societies in foreign countries be made, so that it may be ascertained whether a system of rural credits may be devised suitable to conditions in the United States; and we also favor legislation permitting national banks to loan a reasonable proportion of their funds on real estate security. "We recognize the value of vocational education, and urge Federal appropriations for such training and extension teaching in agriculture in co-operation with the several states." These pledges, with many other services to the farmer, have been completely fulfilled in the legislation of the present Administration. The record of Democratic Performance is offered in comparison with the Republican record of broken promises to the farmer, in an attractive pamphlet issued by the Democratic National Committee. Copies have been furnished to every Democratic State Committee for free distribution. New Interest in B. T. Fund Continued from page one Booker T. Washington, the greatest man of his time." With such support from the Baptist denomination, of which Dr Washington was a member, and with the support of the Memorial Fund Committees in cities and teachers in rural communities, we shall hope to raise, by Thanksgiving Day, a very large part of our share of this Fund. WE HOULD RAISE $100,000 B Y THANKSGIVING DAY SUFFRAGISTS CERTAIN OF DEMOCRATS' HELP Loaders Resent Efforts to Turn the Cause Into an Adjunct of Republican Party. WON OVER BY PRESIDENT "I Have Come Here to Fight WITH You," He Tells Them—"Wilson Voted for Suffrage; Has Hughes?" Asked One. Western women who have had the ballot equally with the men for several years resent the interference of one of the factions of suffragists and the attempt to turn the suffrage cause into an adjunct of the Republican party. They believe they know how to vote without being told by women who never had the vote; and they refuse to turn against the Democrats who have done so much for their cause in their respective states. This attitude is brought out clearly in an interview by Nixola Greeley-Smith, nationally prominent as a writer on the staff of the New York World, with Mrs. Alexander Thompson, Democratic National Committee man from Oregon, and Mrs. Theresa M. Graham of Coeur d'Alene, Idaho. "One would think" observed Mrs. Thompson to Miss Greeley-Smith, "that if any instruction in suffrage matters had to be given it would come from the women who have won the vote and do vote rather than from Suffragists in the East who are still disfranchised. I am a young woman, but I have been through three campaigns for the vote in Oregon. In the final campaign we won through the co-operation and help and belief in us of the men of Oregon. "We have been voting only five years and we are still grateful to our men. So, when the Congressional Union sent speakers to Oregon to tell us to vote against all Democrats we laughed at them. Why, at the last election they campaigned against George E. Chamberlain, who introduced the first Suffrage bill in Oregon and who had been the friend of the women all through their fifteen years fight. "I agree with every word that Mrs Thompson has spoken," declared Ars Graham. "The conditions in my State are the same as in Oregon, except that we have had the vote for twenty years and it was given to us without our having to fight for it. The Congressional Union has speakers in Idaho now urging us to slaughter the Democrats and free our sisters in the East. How silly that is! Are women in the East so foolish as to be led away by the mere declaration of a candidate, unsupported by his party, that he's personally in favor of a Federal amendment? Woodrow Wilson voted for Suffrage. Has Charles E. Hughes ever voted for Suffrage? Wilson has done everything consistent with a belief in State rights, one of the fundamental principles of Democracy. Suffrage can never win as a partisan issue. Alienate the Democrats en masse and you have killed every chance Suffrage has." It is admitted by practically all suffragists that their cause has been helped greatly by the speech President Wilson made before the convention of the National Woman's Suffrage Association at Atlantic City recently, on Sept. 8. When the President told them he had "come here to fight with you" the 4000 suffragists gathered in Nixon's Theatre arose and cheered him enthusiastically. This pledge by the President led Mrs. Carte Chapman Catt, president of the association, to say: "You touched our hearts and won our fealty when you said you had come here to fight with us." "The astonishing thing about this movement," said President Wilson, "is not that it has grown so slowly, but that it has grown so rapidly. . . . I get a little impatient sometimes about the discussion of the channels and methods by which it is to prevail. It is going to prevail, and that is a very superficial and ignorant view of it which attributes it to mere social unrest. It is not merely because the women are discontented, it is because the women have seen visions of duty, and that is something which we not only cannot resist, but, if we be true Americans, we do not wish to resist. . . ." "I have felt as I sat here tonight the wholesome contagion of the occasion. Almost every other time that I ever visited Atlantic City I came to fight somebody. I hardly know how to conduct myself when I have not come to fight somebody, but with somebody. We Buy, Sell and Exchange Furniture 16 South Main Tulsa, Okla.

A.— We, the Republican party, being at our wits' end and desperate, put it up to you: For nearly four years now a Democratic Administration has been in power. Contrary to every law of reason, every principle of progress, the country is at peace and alive, nay, humming with prosperity. Business is rushing. Wages are high. The only discontent is the discontent of those who are reaching for bigger chunks of plenty. We are flabbergasted. All this has happened during a period when the rest of the world has been agog, when international crises were impending on all sides, when we would have sworn only Republican statesmanship could pull the nation through. No war has engulfed us. No panic has paralyzed us. No nation has with impunity continued to infringe upon our rights. We can't deny what has been done. All we can do is take our oath we could have done it better. How, we do not know. If only we said it loud and long enough we hoped the country would believe us. But the country is busy and our voices grow hoarse. We are having a hard time. Woodrow Wilson has nothing to show but what he has accomplished. He has none of the glamour of the what-might-be. We, on the contrary, have our old promises and policies, mellowed by age, but still bearing the stamp of the nation's solid interests. Protection, privilege, government by influence—surely the country has not given them their last trivial. Wall street is with us. Big business is with us. But O. Voters, we confess it, we need you. Don't keep looking at the peace and prosperity around you. Try to get our point of view. Whatever Wilson has done, the man is a Democrat, and neither Federal Government nor Federal offices were meant to be forever in such hands. Let's forget issues and talk as friends. Turn him out and give us a chance! PRAISES WILSON'S STAND IN BEHALF OF SUFFRAGE The action of the National Suffrage Association at Atlantic City, N. J., in rejecting by an overwhelming vote the proposal to make the suffrage movement a partisan annex of the Republican campaign, was further emphasized by Dr. Anna Howard Shaw, "the sage of suffrage," in an interview published in the Philadelphia Press, a staunch Republican organ. 1 "The President, in his speech to the convention, promised all he could carry out," said Dr. Shaw. "If he had promised more we would have known that he could not carry it out. "Not the Republicans alone, nor the Democrats alone, can bring suffrage. If it could be done that way I would favor it. But it can't. We must get enough Democrats and Republicans together to do it." Local News Rev. C A.

AT OLLAHOMA AUCTION FURNITURE CO. 207 E 2d St Phone 236 A. D. Hawkins, Prop. Great Fiction Becomes Great Fact PAGE SIX Did you ever read Twenty Thousand Leagues Under the Sea, the story about a submarine, which Jules Verne wrote forty odd years ago? The vessel he described, "Nautilus," is almost a counterpart of the German merchant submarine, "Deutschland," which came to this country several weeks ago F OR weeks the German undersea boat Deutschland occupied the first page of every newspaper in the land, to the exclusion of the Mexican problem and a considerable part of the European war news. Her journey across the ocean from Bremen, her avoidance of the English and French war vessels and her theatrical disclosure of her identity at Cape Charles constituted the sensation of a century. Mr. Charles P. Tower of the New York Tribune has written an article comparing the Deutschland with the Nautilus, the submarine boat of imagination which Jules Verne, the great French novelist, described in "Twenty Thousand Leagues Under the Sea," published about 45 years ago. No doubt many of you have read the story. It is a great boy's book, like "Tom Sawyer" or Fenimore Cooper's "Leather Stocking Tales." Mr. Tower assumes that the Nautilus was never destroyed, and that the Deutschland is the old boat of fiction rebuilt. He says: "But the sensation will be the greater when it becomes generally known that the boat is not of German design or build; that she is really the original submarine boat Nautilus, designed by that wonderfully skilful naval architect, engineer and scientist at-large, Jules Verne, built and navigated over and under many seas by Captain Nemo, and for many years supposed to have been engulfed in the whirlpool between the islands of Faroe and Lofoten, off the coast of Norway, in June, 1868; the same vessel, rebuilt in some degree and re fitted in a German ship yard, but the Nautilus, as truly as she was the Nautilus when she was launched, in 1865 or 1866. "It has been only a supposition that the boat was lost in the whirlpool, based on the fact that no survivors of her crew, excepting Mr. Aronnax, who wrote the log on board the vessel on her sensational and somewhat erratic voyage of 'Twenty Thousand Leagues Under the Sea,' and his two personal associates, Counsel and Ned Land, never appeared in public or ever told anything to the contrary. But it will be remembered that Mr. Aronnax declared in his edition of the log, which was published in 1873, that he did not positively know whether the boat was lost or not. 'What has become of the Nautilus?' he asks, 'Did it resist the pressure of the maelstrom? Does Captain Nemo still live?' "Don't believe it? Why, it is so thoroughly true as to be axiomatic. Read such a description of the boat that arrived at Baltimore on a Sunday evening; then read Mr. Aronnax's logbook; make careful comparison of the description of the Nautilus which is contained therein with that of the so-called Deutschland—and dare to say that they are not one and the same vessel. The power plant is new in part, and in part renewed. Mr. Verne designed the Nautilus to be driven by electric power generated by primary batteries, something that would be out of the question today, but possible in the case of the Nautilus, because her owner was a man of enormous wealth and because he had discovered an inexhaustible source of supply of the materials required to renew his batteries. "The primary battery was the only available means of providing power for underwater propulsion, as the Diesel motor, now in use on all submarine vessels as a power plant for use on the surface and for generating electricity for power to be used under water, had not been developed. In fact, neither the Germans nor anyone else made any considerable use of the Diesel principle of motor construction until the Diesel patients had expired. Besides, Mr. Verne had no dynamics with which to translate the power produced by motors into electricity, although he had the essential principle in the electric motors with which he turned his propeller. "And the vessel is now fitted with periscopes. --- O DEUTSCHLAND BEN MEN CAPTAIN PAUL KOENIG which the Nautilus in her early days did not have. If she had been equipped with periscopes in 1866 and 1867, it is probable that she would not have been in collision with the Columbus, the Shannon, the Helvetia and other ocean steamships during those years, much to the annoyance of their owners and the mystification of the public. Also, the Nautilus in her reincarnation has wireless telegraph equipment, something which she did not in her early days, because Marconi had not then been born. For the rest of it, the Nautilus is the Nautilus still. "A very full description of the Nautilus is contained in the log as written up by Mr. Aronnax from the dictation of Captain Nemo. He mentions that the captain showed him the plans, sections and elevation of the vessel; doubtless the original drawings made by Mr. Verne, or perhaps tracings of the originals. If they had been blue prints, Mr. Aronnax would doubtless have spoken of them as such; but, of course, they were not, as blue prints were not in use in those days. The captain went on: "Here, M. Aronnax, are the several dimensions of the boat. It is an elongated cylinder with conical ends. It is very like a cigar in shape, a shape already adopted in London in several constructions of the same sort. The length of this cylinder, from stem to stern, is exactly 232 feet and its maximum breadth is 26 feet. It is not built quite like your long-voyage steamers, but its lines are sufficiently long and its curves prolonged enough to allow the water to slide off easily and oppose no obstacle to its passage. "When the Nautilus is afloat one-tenth is out of the water. Now, if I have made reservoirs of a size equal to this tenth, and if I fill them with water, the boat, weighing then 1,507 tons, will be completely immersed. These reservoirs are in the lower part of the Nautilus. I turn on taps and they fill, and the vessel sinks. "Also, when I have a mind to visit the depths of the ocean, I make use of slower but not less infallible means. To steer this boat, following a horizontal plan, I use an ordinary rudder fixed on the back of the sternpost, and with one wheel and some tackle to steer by. But I can also make the Nautilus rise and sink, and sink and rise, by a vertical movement by means of two inclined planes fastened to its sides, opposite the center of flotation, planes that move by powerful levers from the interior. If the planes are kept parallel with boat it moves horizontally. If slanted, the Nautilus, according to this inclination and under the influence of the screw, either sinks diagonally or rises diagonally as it suits me." "Set aside the obvious errors in the log or in the translation, and the description of the Nautilus might as readily pass for that of the so-called Deutschland as any that have been printed. Look it over in detail. The Nautilus was 232 feet long; the length of the undersea boat at Baltimore was "guessed" at anything from 200 and some odd feet to 300 feet. Of course, as she has been rebuilt, the boat may have been lengthened, to suit modern ideas. "But the Nautilus had a conning tower, in place of the present superstructure.

That of the Deutschland is "guessed" at something less than 30 feet. The Nautilus was cylindrical in shape; the vessel that has created the sensation during past weeks is not quite cylindrical, in that her top sides are carried up for a space nearly vertical, and then tumble home with an easy curve; or, at least, it is so indicated by such photographs as have come to light. The change was undoubtedly made in the rebuilding, in order to increase the carrying capacity; for it is to be remembered that the Nautilus was not built to carry cargo, and had no great excess of buoyancy. The motive power of the Nautilus was electricity. That of the vessel from Germany is electricity when submerged, while for use above water the Diesel engines supply the power. That is of no importance as bearing on the identity of the vessel. It is a common thing in rebuilding a ship to make some changes in the propelling mechanism. "There is still more to come. Both boats—or, rather, the same boat in the two periods of her career—were—was—is—fitted up in some degree of luxury. Listen to what Mr. Aronnax says about a room into which Captain Nemo conducted him: "It was a library. High pieces of furniture supported upon their wide shelves a large number of books. The electric light flooded everything. It was shed from four unpolished globes, half sunk in the ceiling.' And again, in speaking of the saloon, filled with treasures of art beyond price, Mr. Aronnax mentions the organ, of which he says later in the chronicle: 'At that moment I heard the distant strains of the organ, a sad harmony to an indefinable chant, the wall of a soul longing to break these earthly bonds." The Organ on the Nautilus. "One may not approve of Captain Nemo's taste in music; some of us may prefer the 'run of mill' music which one may have with a phonograph and a selection of records made haphazard; but he was musical, at all events, and had provided himself with means with which to gratify his taste. But the organ has given way to a phonograph, with which the crew of the boat entertained themselves on the way across or under the Atlantic. And when they were 'full up' on music there was the library, with fewer books than that of old, but with Shakespeare as a foundation of literary satisfaction. is conti- nued men- tle plans, mountless mountless mountless course, a use in dimen- ceylinder gar in in sev- length "One may not approve of Captain N. in music; some of us may prefer the music which one may have with a v and a selection of records made hapl- he was musical, at all events, and ha- himself with means with which to o- taste.

By electricity "Still skeptical? How was the food of the crew of the Nautilus cooked? By electricity. Says Mr. Aronnax: Then a door opened into a kitchen nine feet long, situated between the large storerooms. There electricity, better than gas itself, did all the cooking. The streams under the furnaces gave out to the sponges of platina a heat which was regularly kept up and distributed. They also heated a distilling apparatus, which by evaporation furnished excellent drinkable water. How was the 'grub' of the crew of the so-called Deutschland cooked? By electricity, said Captain Koenig, although he did not give a description of the cooking apparatus in anything like as full a detail as does Mr. Aronnax of that of the Nautilus. The boat that Captain Koenig commanded was furnished with all the comforts of home, according to the one man who was aboard of her in any other than an official capacity, and who does not consider himself held to secrecy. "It's a clear case. In every essential the Deutschland is the Nautilus. In size and form, excepting as any vessel may be modified in process of overhauling and refitting, in power plant, excepting as the Diesel engines take the place of electric motors for surface propulsion, for economy's sake; in the intricate electrical equipment for lighting, cooking and in the control and movement of all parts of the ship; in the means provided for going below the surface of the water at will, and in returning to the surface at pleasure; even in the provision for the comfort and entertainment of the crew, the Deutschland and the Nautilus are one and the same. Only in the use made of the craft is there a difference. The Nautilus was built and operated to satisfy the whim—let's call it a whim and forget the tragedy of it all—of a man wealthy enough to afford it; while as to the Deutschland, she crossed the ocean to bring a few pounds of dyestuffs of which we are in need. It is the case of a thoroughbred harnessed to an express wagon in his old age." Novel Makeshift Water Tank Improvised to Serve Railroad Engines Employed during Construction of a Canadian Electric Line. KEEP GOING AHEAD BUILDERS CONTINUE MAKING IMPROVEMENTS IN ENGINES. Huge Mallet Locomotives Now Have Twenty-Four Drive Wheels and Weigh Four Hundred and Twenty-Six Tons. If the Boston & Albany could announce an exhibition, say on the track beside Boylston street, of some of its new Mallet engines in contrast with two or three "hogs" or "Moguls" from the back of the Allston yard, the response from the public would repay the bother, remarks the Boston Herald. Few men outgrow the boy's liking for locomotives; but few keep up with the new points in design. Of all machines that serve us, not excepting dynamo and motor car, it would be hard to find one that has equaled the locomotive in working out, endlessly, change after change for the better. In seeking speed the designers have felt their way, step by step; yet our swiftest engines today—the "camel backs"—are already a type as good as doomed. In seeking power, invention has pushed invention till in these tandem-built Mallets, you see the frame not only long, but jointed, for ease on curves; you see steam not only made with utmost saving of fuel, but also baked above its natural heat. This superheated steam you see applied in huge cylinders, twice, first on high pressure, then on low. You see not only a fireman, but machinery to push coal toward him or even to feed it into the firebox. You see an engineer, but in these ponderous locomotives he, too, has machinery at hand, compressed air and what not, to take the place of muscle in controlling his main machine. Twenty-five years ago the "American" passenger engine—of the familiar "choo choo" type, with four small wheels—usually weighed about 35 tons on its drivers; a freight locomotive weighing 50 tons on drivers, the hostlers in the roundhouse called a giant. But beside the Mallet engines of today with two or three tandem sets of cylinders and drivers, these older engines look like Nantasket boats beside the ocean grayhounds. Fifteen Mallets just received by the Baltimore & Ohio for its hard Cumberland division have each 16 driving wheels. The Santa Fe likes a model with 20 drivers. The Erie, for two years, has been using a Mallet with 24 drivers, bearing on 71 feet of track at once; this engine has an after-breakfast weight of 426 tons, and a willingness to move along with 250 loaded cars. STUDENTS IN PULLMAN JOBS Company Goes to College Conductors for Help During the Vacation Season. Many persons going to the White mountains this summer, or to Atlantic City, or points in New England, had their tickets inspected and punched by young men who, after September 15, will be found in Yale, Harvard, Princeton and the University of Pennsylvania. About 75 students from these institutions were employed to act as Pullman conductors on the great eastern lines, where the annual travel from the cities in the hot season is especially heavy. This is the first time in 16 years that the company has gone to colleges for help. The move, it is explained, is not due to a scarcity of applicants, but to the fact that undergraduates are peculiarly fitted for summer employment and can return to their books when the rush is over. A representative of the company visited Princeton to engage students. The other universities have their own employment agencies through which applications were received. The 75 began work the first of June and will receive $77 a month. "There is always a demand for extra conductors during June, July, August and up to the middle of September," an official explained, according to the New York Tribune. "Many conductors who work in the South in the winter are brought North each season, but there are not enough of them to meet the demand. By eagling students who want to earn money during the vacation season the company will escape having a large number of men on its hands after the summer travel is over. Most of the students who have been engaged reported at New York city, Philadelphia and Boston, which are known as the summer offices. There is very little travel in the summer, comparatively speaking, in the middle West, and there was no need to employ students there. Students from colleges and universities were employed as conductors 16 years ago, but this was the first time since that the experiment has been renewed." NOVEL USE OF TANK CAR Stationed on Incline to Supply Water to Engines Employed in Line Construction Work. During the construction of an electric-transportation line between Montreal and Granby, Que., a rather ingenious water tank was improvised to serve the steam locomotives which were temporarily in use. A spur was made by laying track to the top of a short incline, erected with trestle timbers, at one side of the main line. A tank car was run onto this and its wheels blocked. An old steam shovel, which lacked its crane and dipper, was also pushed onto the spur and connected by pipes with both the tank and a pump that was installed at a nearby brook. In this way water was pumped to the container as needed. A large pipe provided with a manual valve served to convey water from the reservoir. Engines needing water were driven alongside the tank and filled.—Popular Mechanics Magazine. LINE CROSSES "HOLY RUSSIA" Railroad That Traverses Continent Required Eleven Years for Its Construction. It was Alexander III who first realized the possibility of making a railroad across the whole length of the continent, and in the year 1892 his son, Czar Nicholas II of today, laid the first stone at Vladivostok. This was done in order to guard the newly acquired territories of the valleys of the Amur and Ussuri from the inroads of other nations; the railways would thus facilitate the transport of troops if necessary. It covers a distance of 6,000 miles from Moscow to Vladivostok. The Russian government voted $200,000,000 for its construction, and it was completed in 11 years. It takes three days to reach Zlatoust in the Ural mountains. There is to be seen the famous "Stone of Parting." Could it speak, what a number of heart-rending tales it could tell. When criminals and political prisoners were sent to Siberia, that "Great Lone Land" of the East, their friends usually bade them good-by in the presence of the cold stone. From Zlatoust the main line proceeds to Omsk, whence it reaches the shores of Lake Balkal, one of the largest fresh-water lakes in the world. Sometimes the Russians term it "The Holy Sea," because an island in the lake was believed to be the abode of an evil spirit, who continually had to be appeased with sacrifices. Seals and beautiful sponges abound in the lake. Previous to 1905 the whole train was transferred by means of a wonderful movable platform, where it rested on rails, on the steamer on Lake Balkal. This steamer was built at Newcastle, England, and was fitted with powerful screws, which could be driven through ice four feet thick. Now the railway is continued round the south of Lake Balkal.

A system of trip levers on the railroad track comes in contact with a lever mounted between the trucks of the locomotive, closing an electric circuit and operating the entire mechanism.—Popular Science Monthly. New Rairoads for Mexico. Eight corps of civil engineers are now in the field in Mexico preparing for the extension and building of railroads by the government, according to an announcement made by department of communication. Work is now being actively pushed on an extension line from Lo De Mena, Durango, to Conception Del Oro, connecting with the line running south from Saltillo, to open rich mining country. The engineers are now surveying for a five-mile tunnel through the mountains in the Mazapil district. A new line is being built southeast from Saltillo to Ortega, which will tap rich agricultural districts. About 14 miles of this line has been completed. Soak Railroad Ties in Brine. Russian railroads protect ties and telegraph poles against decay by soaking them for several months before use in strong brine. Always the Thorns! BU GENEVIEVE ULMAR (Copyright, 1916, by W. G. Chapman.) "The last rose," announced Edna Brock and there was a shadow of regret in her tone. "Oh, what a beauty!" enthused Blanche Reed and added the final trophy of the denuded bush to the great bouquet Edna had patiently picked for her. "Why, you have hurt yourself." Edna had, indeed. She winced and paled slightly. The hand that had disengaged the last rose had been torn across the fingers with a long deep scratch. The blood flowed freely, but she wrapped the disfigured member in her handkerchief and said lightly: "Oh, that is nothing—I am used to the thorns, dear." There was a deeper meaning to the words than shallow heedless Blanche Reed knew—no bitterness, but a certain spirit of resignation that for the moment sent a grave expression to the comely face of the speaker. "You see, the Aid society is very active since that handsome young Doctor Trevor came to Leeville. They say he is a rising man in his profession in the city," rattled on Blanche. "and we all have our caps set for him. He's rich, too. Thanks for the flowers, dear. Doctor Trevor gave me the name of one of his poor patients, so I am anxious to get her the flowers." Ddna sat nursing her injured hand after the departure of her chattering 1913 Studiously Regarded a Bouquet of Flowers Lying on the Ground. companion. She was thinking of this young Dr. Willis Trevor who had come to Leeville to spend the summer, and recuperate from the strain of an extensive practice. Edna had been casually introduced to him. She was interested in his broad humanitarian ideas. Doctor Trevor seemed to be one of those restless mortals who was happy only when occupied. He gave his services free to the poor and had co-operated with local societies in advancing sanitary and philanthropical work. The vain, selfish motives of Blanche jarred on Edna. Then she sighed and bound up the wounded hand with a little quiver about the lips. "Always the thorns!" she murmured. So life had seemed to her. She appeared ever to be "the lamb of sacrifice" for others. She had given up an advanced education for the sake of a sister. Once wealthy and the family high in local social circles, her father and she herself had well-nigh beggured themselves to start a son and brother in business. The latter had lost the entire investment, and those who had helped him were forced to proceed thereafter on an economical basis. 4 Edna tried not to miss the old social life. She had never loved yet. She felt her girlhood was going by with something missing out of it. It was an hour later when Edna, going down the street on an errand to a village store, paused and studiously regarded a bouquet of flowers lying on the ground at the edge of a field filled with boys playing ball. They were in the full blaze of the sun. "My flowers!" uttered Edna, fairly indignant, as if some cruel heedless person had deserted her dearest friends at the wayside. As she lifted them lovingly from the ground, however, a little fellow, a member of the ball-playing coterie, ran up to her. She recognized him as a brother of Miss Reed. "Oh, please! those are my flowers," he advised Edna—"that is, my sister asked me to take them to a sick girl. Yes, here is the card with the name on." Edna read the address and readily comprehended the situation. The flighty, unreliable Blanche had tired of her set task and had left its commission to a heedless juniqr. "I will deliver the flowers," promised Edna and went her way with that design in view. Within the hour Edna Brock forgot Blanche, the doctor and the thorns of life. All of its sweetness had come to her in full measure. She had delivered the flowers at a miserable hovel to find a little child of poverty struggling against insanitary conditions and a burning fever. It was to her a privilege to serve, a joy to lift humanity from the dregs to the higher levels of hope and faith and comfort. It seems as though the sweet influence of Edna had changed a prison into a palace. Twice that day she visited the little invalid. The one following she gathered up from her own little store and the donations of kindly neighbors various articles of utility and comfort in which the humble home was lacking. The third day as she entered the tenement room she came face to face with Doctor Trevor, just leaving. He greeted her with a brightening eye. In his quiet but earnest way he commanded her for the marvelous transformation she had made in the environment of the poor home and in the invalid. His heart warmed towards her and Edna felt a responding thrill. Once again she met the doctor. It was the day when the little child, singing happily, was able to sit up in bed, past all danger. All the time Edna had been compelled to keep the thorn-injured hand bandaged. It had pained her at times and looked red and swollen. Now that the strain of her nursing was over she noticed it more closely and realized that it was a poison or infection injury. She applied a soothing lotion. Blanche had invited her to an evening lawn party. Her hand pained her so greatly, however, that she phoned her friend that she would not be able to go. What was Edna's surprise about six o'clock when Doctor Trevor drove up in his automobile. "What is this I hear," he observed in his clever, pleasing way, "about an injured hand and no complaint to me, who must be your physician since you have been my friendly nurse? Dear, dear! you have neglected this, Miss Brock," he added, as Edna shyly showed him her hand. Doctor Trevor dressed the wounded member and told Edna he had been advised just in time. "You also need rest and diversion after your engrossing care of my little patient," he said. And then he suggested that, as she was not going to the lawn party, and as he did not care for the function, a moonlight run around the lake would delight him, and so it came about. Blanche Reed quizzed Edna industriously after learning of three of these auto trips that had taken place in one week. She upbraided her for monopolizing this particular star of the village social life. But Edna was noncommittal, and only innocent, happy and contented. There came the day that called Doctor Trevor back to his duties in the city. Quite an ovation was given him that evening by Miss Reed and her coterie of special friends. Edua was not present at the function. She sat in the garden of the little home, feeling sure that the last good-by of Doctor Trevor would be for herself. He came swinging along in the mellow moonlight, cheery and hopeful. He took her hand, after he had spoken a few words. "Dear little hand!" he said, and kissed it reverentially—"bearing the thorns, that others may have the roses. Let it guide me in silent paths of duty that have made your life so sweet and true!" GOT TOO DEEP FOR MOLLY Seemed Easy at First to Answer Census Man's Question, But Difficulty Came Later. The front door bell rang, but Mrs, Murphy was scrubbing her kitchen floor and had no intention of letting that disturb her. "Molly! Molly!" she called, "answer that." Molly carefully placed the "image" she was dusting on the shelf, then opened the door to face the census man. "Mother in?" he asked. "No," lied Molly, judging from his general appearance that he must have something to sell. "Well, perhaps you'll do. How many children are there?" Molly calculated mentally. "Thirteen," she said, finally. "The oldest—name, age, and date of birth?" This was difficult, but Molly had lied and must see the thing through. "Mary, twenty-two years old January first," she guessed. "Yes; now the next." "Patsy, twenty, February 2," she guessed again. Then suddenly she saw her way clear. It was easy. "I'll give them all to you." she said. "Joseph, eighteen, March 3; Kathleen, sixteen, April 4; Susie, fourteen, May 5." And so she joyfully pursued her course, dropping two years and adding one month and one day to the date at each name, until she reached "Tom, age two, November 11." She bit her lips. There were two children left, without ages! "And?" the census man questioned, with a smile, as he counted the eleven names. "Oh," said Molly, "I forgot; two of us are dead." When the census man called the next day, Mrs. Murphy herself answered the ring. THE TULSA DAILY STAR In Trans ONE OF THE GATES OF THE ANG In Transylvania ONE OF THE GATES OF THE ANCIENT WALLED CITY OF BRASSO ALL NATIONS of the world have their eyes fixed on the colossal struggle which is shaking civilization to its very foundations, but by none is it watched with more breathless eagerness than by that province on the western side of the Carpathians which is cut off from its kindred and bound by fetters of iron into a sheaf of alien races, Magyar, Slav, Bosnian, Crontian, Teuton—with his fellow-subjects of Kaiser Franz Josef the Latin inhabitant of Transylvania has absolutely no sympathy. On the contrary, he detests them, one and all, though he reserves his deadliest hatred for his hard taskmaster, the Hungarian. But with the Roumanian on the farther side of the Transylvanian Alps he has all things in common, blood, language, descent, Roumania, the Roman's land; Transylvania, that part of the Roman's land which lies beyond the forests. And that part which lies beyond the forests looks with unspeakable longing for the deliverance which the Hapsburg's overthrow will bring, for that victory which will reunite her to her kin, writes J. M. Dodingtop in Country Life. It is an interesting land, that which lies beyond the forests, and there is, perhaps, no quainter town in Europe than its ancient capital, Kolozsvar, Embosmed in trees, its ancient houses straggle over several hills, its two rippling rivers are crossed by picturesque covered wooden bridges which rival those of Lucerne and Florence. Its narrow, unpaved streets are lighted by electricity, but sanitation, in each and all of its branches, is totally ignored, and in its main thoroughfares, beside the lines of the electric tramway, run open sewers. These discharge themselves into the two rivers. I may add that the visitor has a not altogether agreeable sensation when he observes the brown-skinned washerwomen pounding his linen on the banks of the said streams and subsequently rinsing it in their turbid waters! In these narrow, unpaved streets there are many lofty and spacious mansions, tenanted by the haute aristocratic of the country. Like the palazzi of Florence and of Rome, the ground floors of these are entirely occupied by shops. On the first floor, the piano nobile, lives the owner (if sufficiently well off to afford such lodgment). The upper floors are let to tenants of many degrees, whose station varies in inverse proportion to their altitude. If the owner of the mansion is a poor man, he himself "goes up higher." Standing solitary on a hill outside the town is a whitewashed fortress from which one has a superb view over hill and dale, over forest and river, away and away to the far blue line of the Carpathians. Kolozsvar also possesses a fine public park, under whose fragrant lime trees a magnificent Tzigany band discourses wildest music. Market Day in Kolozsvar. But the greatest charm of the little town (it has a population of but a bare 20,000 souls) is its market day. Then, under the largest and most gorgeously colored umbrellas in Europe (I should imagine) do groups of the most picturesquely attired countrywomen assemble, surrounded by piles of the most delightful fruit and vegetables, downy peaches, crimson plums, luscious grapes—purple, yellow and white—rosy apples, blue-black figs, blood red pomi d'oro, gigantic melons and cucumbers, huge red peppers, produce of garden and orchard of every color and form, and all framed in garlands of roses of every imaginable hue. Present everywhere, roaming and rooting among the stalls, are flocks of long-necked geese and herds of the peculiarly hideous swine of the country whose happiest hunting grounds are the Transylvanian forests. Most beautiful forests they are which clothe the foothills, magnificent oaks and beeches, with here and there a clump of silver birches or an avenue of stately pines. At rare intervals comes a clearing in which nestles a little cluster of mud huts backed by a miniature village church. The small fields which surround the tiny hamlets are carpeted with wild flowers. Campions and puffles of immense size and most brilliant coloring, orchids of many varieties, cornflowers—blue, purple and amethyst—wild roses of a vivid pink and with thornless stems, yellow snapdragons, delicate harebells and fragrant pinks—there is no end to the variety of blossom. sylvania SILENT WALLED CITY OF BRASSO The air is exhilarating as champagne; though the heat in summertime is very great during the noontide hours, at sundown a refreshingly cool breeze invariably springs up and a heavy dew begins to fall. It is a most delightful experience to roam then through the beautiful forest, listening to the tinkle of the bells as the herds of sheep, cattle, pigs, buffaloes wander down the magnificent aisles, to the flute of the shepherd and the horn of the guardian of the swine. Equally pleasing it is, during the heat of the day, to spend long hours of dolce far niente on a springy bed of wild thyme by the side of a brawling streammiet—I may add that for the inveterate angler it is an even more enjoyable experience to extract from its dark pools and alluring stickles many a lusty trout. For almost all of these forest "burns" abound in fish—not very large, it is true, but vigorous fighters, giving excellent sport. Big Landowners the Rule. Big Landowners The Rule. There are very few tenant farmers in the country; immensely big landowners are the rule, and these, with the aid of a host of balloons, manage their own estates. They devote each farm to some special object; one, for instance, is the ox farm, another the sheep farm, a third is set aside for horses, a fourth for donkeys, another for poultry, another for pigs, and yet another is the dairy farm. It is, by the way, rather a curious fact that cows' milk is despised by all, rich man and pensive alike. It is looked upon as only fit for pigs and calves, or to be mixed with other milk in the making of cheese. Only buffalo milk is considered fit for human consumption; this is, however, to an English palate, far too rich, both in quality and flavor. Outside almost every village in Transylvania is the gypsy quarter. Outside it, not in it, for the desplsed Tzigany is never allowed to dwell among the villagers or to mix with them on equal terms. He is the basket-maker, occasionally the brickmaker, of the neighborhood—but always and everywhere he is the music-maker. The gypsies are the orchestra of every town and village, at every festival they play untiringly, hour after hour, while the peasants dance. Men and women alike are dowered with the gift of music, and the wild Czardas crashed out by a Tzigany band makes even the cool blood of a Northerner tingle in his veins. But fiddling is not the gypsy's only accomplishment; he is also a most expert thief. In fact, a legend of the country says that when a Tzigany baby makes its entrance into this vale of tears it is laid on its back upon the ground, while a purse is placed on its right side and a fiddle on its left. According to the direction in which it first extends a tiny fist its profession in life is determined! A fair, fair land that "beyond the forests"—a more than interesting people, varying infinitely in rank, in character, in customs, even in beliefs, but united in one overpowering longing: to free their necks from the Magyar yoke, and to be reunited with their kindred on the farther side of the Transylvanian Alps. American Hardware the Best: American Hardware the Beat. American-made hammers lead the world not only in quality and workmanship but in price, the adz eye feature being typical of hammers made in this country and adding much to their practicability. American hardware manufacturers can compete with all their lines in most foreign markets, but can only hope to obtain control of them by sending into those fields capable and experienced representatives, whose duty it should be to demonstrate to both dealer and the workman the superiority of their tools. A shortage of hardware supplies exists all over the world. Wherever people sow and reap, mine, lumber, construct or build, there are markets for American hardware and this is especially true at present in Latin America, China, Russia, Australia and South Africa. Cooperation in selling to foreign markets is especially necessary in this line. owing to the expense of opening territory. —Leslie's. Helress—I like you very much, Mr. Ardup, but I cannot marry you. Ardup (picking up his hat)—I will be equally frank with you, Miss Bullion. I don't like you at all, but I would marry you in a minute. I am more self-sacrificing than you are Good evening. Plain Talk. VOGUES AND VANITIES by JULIA BOTTOMLEY New Sports Suits for Autumn. Before the summer sports or pastime suits have vanished from our midst their successor has entered and made its bow. It is destined to bloom with the goldenrod and asters and it is naturally of heavier materials than the suits for summer weather. Serge, velveten, and corduroy contribute to its durability and to its style as well. It is likely that these new sports suits for autumn will be innocent of stripes. Those shown so far are of plain materials or of plaids and plain fabrics made up together, and they are undeniably smart. Young or old, women wear about the same styles in them, and they subtract years from the matron's appearance in a way to make her rise up and call them blessed, besides cheerfully parting with her good money for them. Among the most enticing suits, those made of white serge combined with the same materials in handsome colored plaids are triumphing. Some 1 A Elegant Hats for Those in Mourning. Two very elegant hats, made for those in mourning, are shown. They will satisfy the most discriminating taste, for they fulfill all the requirements for correct millinery of this particular kind. They are made in conservative and becomin' shapes, of English crape or of a specially woven silk and crape, and the workmanship in them is above reproach. An all-crape hat is shown at the left, and all the world over its import is understood. It is the material used for the first period of mourning. The shape is a drooping brimmed sailor of moderate size, and it is covered smoothly with crape. The facing is of the same exquisite material. Crape is of a texture that lends itself to the making of flower forms, and the trimming of this hat is made of crape. There are four large roses, each made of three sizes of crape petals set about a cabochon of crape at the center of the flower. The hat is lined with a soft silk. The second hat is of silk with a wing made of folds of the silk and crape. It extends across the front of the hat and terminates in a large cabochon at the right side. Either of these hats is of a con- --- UES D TIES TOMLEY times the skirt is white and the coat of the plaid with white collar and cuffs. Or a white skirt is banded with plaid, and a white coat has plaid cuffs and collar, belt and pockets. When the story is not told in plaids it veers to colored velvetteens or corduroys. In the picture a white serge skirt is worn with a taupe gray coat of velvetteen with girdle of soft satin. Buttons and tassels make the quiet finish. The blouse is of crepe de chine made plain. It will be noticed that the skirt extends only a little below the shoe tops and it is not likely that the sports skirt will lose character by growing longer. One may wear a suit of this kind with assurance. It is good to look at and full of its own style. Although the color combination is as quiet as possible the fabrics and the cut of the garment give the suit plenty of "snap." There is nothing tame or commonplace about it. 1 venient size to be worn with a veil. Vells of silk net, bordered with crape, take the place of all-crape veils in new millinery. Or mesh veils bordered with bands of narrow grosgrain ribbon may be used after the period of first mourning is passed. There is much latitude in the choice of styles and the wearing of mourning in this country. But those who elect to wear it must not break certain rules. No extremes of styles are in keeping with the reserve that marks mourning apparel. Fabrics must be good and workmanship of the best. Crape remains the unquestioned indication of mourning. Net Wraps Five Layers Deep. Before the beautiful brocaded clonks, which are already in New York ready for the opera season, are allowed to see the light there is being shown and worn joyously a new sort of evening coat, called the outdoor dinner cape. These are made of five layers of silk net colored often like a flame opal. They furnish just enough protection against the night air and do not "limp" with the damp, for there is no dressing in the net.

Dill, of Wash- ington, cites the records of the com- mittee hearings on suffrage in Con- gress to prove that “the only Congress men who have gone before the Judl clary Committee of Congress this year to ask that @ suffrage amendment be voted upon have been Democratic members.” He adds that “no others have appeared to ask for considera tion of the measure. That Is, I think, suficient answer to any claim that the Democratic Party opposed Woman Suffrage.” ‘This record peed only be supple mented with the personal voting his- tory of the rival Presidentin! candl- dates to show who Is the real friend of suffrage, President Wilson made twe trips from Washington to New Jersey to register and vote for Woman Suffrage wheo It was submitted in his State. Candidate Hughes did not take the trouble to register or to vote the game year—1915—when the suffrage amendment was submitted to his tate. “There 1s no means of judging the future except by assessing the past. Constructive action must be weighed against destructive comment and reac tion.” — From Presideot Wilson's | Byeech of Acceptance, The Advertised ° Article is one in which the mer- chant himself has implicit faith—else he will not ad- vertise it.

OUR MEXIGAN POLICY BASED ON HUMANITY How the President Has Upheld a Small Nation's Rght to Control Its Affairs. RESISTED WAR Pa=SSURE “President Wilson's faith in demo- eracy, und the unselfishness of the United States in international deal- fngs, have been strikingly expressed in his Mexican policy. “The President's demand for Mexico te—Justice.” ‘The lurger phases of the relations of the United Stutes with Mexico during President Wilson's Adininis tration as well a# un Interesting and complete narrative of events ure pre: sented authoritatively In the Mexican chupter of the Democratic Nationa! ‘Text Book, from which these quota- tlons are made: “Two considerations have animated the President in the formulation of his Mexican policy and have compelted his adherence to It throughout ils Ad: ministration, namely t “The firm conviction that all na- tions, both the weak and the power: ful, have the inviolable right to contro! their internal affairs. “The belief, established upon the history of the world, that Mexico will never become a peaceful and law-abid Ing neighbor of the United States un til she has been permitted to achieve /& permanent and basic settlement of her troubles without outside Interfer- ence... | “The Mextean problem tn its pres ent form has existed for the Amerienn Government ever since our frontier | wns extended to the io Grande. When the people maintained the peace tt was because they were forced to do so, nil not because Justice relgned {nthe land. Thus ft was that the history of Mexico, like the history of every aspiring people, pressed upon Prest dent Wilson's consideration (he truth that no permunent good relations could exist between this great North Fern Republic and the one Immediate |'y South of us until she had heen lett free to put her house In order, how Fever painful that process mizht he and whatever the demands It micht make upon the forbearance of the United States.” “There was a powerful pressure for war—a terrible war—by a welf-armed powerful nation against an unarmed, bankrupt people exhausted by five years of clvil strife, hut who still re tained enough of patriotte feeling to -untfy them against an invader. It was the old, olf question whether the United States should Impose a pence Jon Mexien; whether, for the sake of the Interests of a few of Its eltizen [ie whould permanentty suppress Mex! } co's upreaching toward freedom and | self-government.” FOR SERVICES RENDERED NOT PROMISES BROKEN “1 do not doubt that the people of the United States will wish the Democratic party to con tinue In rontrol of the govern: ment. They are not in the habit of rejecting those who have ac tually served them for those who are making doubtful and conjec tural promises of service. Least of all are they likely to substi tute those who promised to render them particular services and proved false to that promise for those who have actually ren dered those very services.”— From President Wilson's Speech "of Acceptance.
