WILSON'S SOLUTION of the trust problem that has Pcrplcl many former pwiJents is like all great inventions, pi-rtivtK simple when it has been once iliscovcrc.l. The chief executive believes tint he has found the key to the entire trouble with the trusts and that a blow .-limed at the interUUnc diievtorate? ' will be a blow that will strike the vital spot in the combinations or.tmed u the restraint of trade. On this assumption, he has had introduced into the national congress several bills that deal directly with the trust problem, a problem that has vexed several administrations but that bids fair to be more or less solved by this one. The general sentiment through the country is that the presidential ad dress to the congress is at least a step in the direction of the control of the monopolies that have been eating the heart out of the consumer ever since the daw of the Civil War and the president can be given credit lor having ma terially aided in the prosecution, even if he gets no farther, of the trusts an other combinations that have fought competition and have held up prices so I .r TI.. V, .U-lnriM'nn nf W AT Oil the niOllOIVll IC liumoers ui ycar. i uc is evidenced by the voluntary retirement of several of the most wealthy trut magnates from their directorates in large corporations. The greatest financial minds that the country has had. Harrim.m and Morgan, were directors in numbers of companies. They could devote their time and attention only to their greatest interests and many of the minor com panies suffered through their absence at the meetings of the boards. But in those other concerns, the influence of the master minds were felt at critical times and whenever it was to the advantage of some particular plan of cam paign that the energies of those corporations be directed along certain courses cf policy. If the presidential plan can work out for the country some relief from tn. ravagrs of the trust, it will have accomplished a great deal for the consume as against the concentrated power of wealth. The country will watch eager ly the result of the bills as they reach the national legislature and will anxi ously note any of the changes that may be made in congress by either house. It also eagerly awaits the result of the legislation and the practical workings of the system that the president has already approved when it is placed in to actual operation. Wilson is unique in many things. He has already shown himself a great leader, an actual thinker with a personality strong enough to whip re Iractious members into line and force them to vote for measures that they do not altogether approve. Few presidents have accomplished the passage of Pleasures of such importance through congress in such a short space of time a Wilson has during the few months that he has been in charge of the functions , of government. The applause started in the house following the last message. was started bv the leader of the opposition forces in congress. It of itself, is indicative at the united sentiment of the country now supporting the president, an unusual circumstance but one that enables him to get results for the country and to get important measures through in the shortest time. Wilson has the idea that the people look to him, the chief executive, as the man responsible for the sue n nr failure nf the mrtv and of the policies of that party. It makes no difference to the average man whether he were to blame or his party mem bers in congress. He is held accountable. For that reason, he proposes to be the leader of the party and he is determined that the policies that he favors should be enacted into law.

' I'pon the shoulders of these progressic men lies the burden for the re formation of our road system. They have seen the light and they projx.se to get roads. The district that can stand a special road levy is a district this country has reason to pride itself upon. The district that lies down on the job and goes to sleep in the same old rut where its grandfathers slept before it is a district that needs a jolt of dynamite to wake it up and there are some farmers in this county who are going to give it that jolt.

REAL ESTA1E FIVE IMPLICATED IN PLOT AGAINST HUERTA L- AND A WOMAN DID IT! For weeks Mayor Mitchell tried to get Colonel Goethals to assume the direction of the New York police department. At the same time there were rumors that President Wilson would offer the colonel the command of the canal zone under the newly created governorship that the na tional legislature had authorized. Goethals was seriously considering the appointment and was practically determined to accept the governorship of the zone when the offer was made. As the man directly responsible for the successful completion of the canal and for the triumph over the many engineering difficulties that were there presented, the country generally believed that he would accept the newly created office when the tender was made by the president. Goethals himself thought that he would take the place and and the president was sure of it. Mrs. Roosevelt, wife of the former president, arrived on the scene about that time, however, and the best laid plans of mice and men sometimes go awry'. The scheme of the president was knocked into splinters, the plans oi the mayor were carried out, not through any efforts ot his own but through the persuasive powers of the woman who argued with the canal builder to go back to New York and straighten out the tangles that have arisen in that police department. Whatever success Goethals may have as police commissioner of the country's metropolis, a portion of it must be given to Mrs. Roosevelt for her efforts in getting the engineer to leave the tropics and return to the work that awaited him there. Had it not been for her efforts, the plan of the presi dent would have carried and Goethals would today he. not the police com missioner of one of the world's greatest cities, but trie governor of the zone surrounding the canal that he built. In the same dispatches with this report came stories of plots of the Eng lish suffragettes and their schemes to blow up Krrcat government buildings to attract the attention of the country to their demand for the vote. New ork has not yet ailowed women the right of suffrage, but New York women seem to be able to get, through other channels, just about what they believe thev want, even without the vote.
