CITY OFFICIAL
PROGRESSIVE IDEAS have permeated the Republican camp. The
decision of the national committee a few days ago to re-district the
country for "representation and to cut down the list of delegates that
the South sends, shows the new tendency that has taken its hold upon the
party.
The plans of the committee are worthy. Something is needed in the
way of re-districting work through the country 'and the national committee
has seen that need. It has taken a hold on the situation in a progressive way.
It has seen the problems that have confronted the party and properly and de
cisively faced them. .
For years the South has played a too important part in the action of the
Republican committees and conventions. With only a few voters in com
parison with the rest of the country who vote a straight party ticket, the
South has been influential in turning the tide in favor of particular candi
dates or measures. The committee that has been at work on the matter has
gone at it in a progressive way. It has cut down that representative and has
given the determining vote in matters that effect the party to those states in
which the party's vote is strong or predominate. The new turn of the com
mittee shows the up-to-date spirit that has taken a firm hold on the leader?
and that has awakened them into activities that will regain all of the advan
tages that were lost at the last election and bring back many of the voters
into the fold.
-O
ENTO THAT GREAT ZONE of the Arctic from whose bourne so few
travellers return has disappeared another great explorer of the un
known. Beyond that point where civilization has placed its scattering line
Di pickets, they have penetrated in the cause of science to discover the things
that are in the unknown lands at the top of the world.
The great unknown within that mysterious circle of the Arctic has claimed
within the years that explorers have attempted to penetrate and reveal its sec
rets the lives of some of most learned men of the profession. They have sac
rificed in that cause their future prospects in each of their own professions
and have given life' that the worfd might know some of the secrets that are
walled up within the circle of ice and perpetual snow.
Drifting along with the relentless ice packs and driven by the tempetu
qus storms of the frozen north is today the little staunch vessel in which these
intrepid adventurers sailed in their attempted conquest of the land of myster
ies. '
More daring and romatic than the fearless attacks of the early navi
gators upon the unexplored deep beyond the narrow shore line is the history
of the adventures into the realms of snow and ice. Of late years, the most
notable sacrifice that has been made to the cause of science is that loss of Cap
tain Scott on his fight to find the southern goal. His last moments filled
with the thought of his men and the glory that would come to his country
from his explorations, he fought through the terrific storms and braved the
unhindered tempests that rage in their original fury around the axis of the
world.
The annals of the northern explorations have been more filled with dis
asters by sea and ice than have those made in the effort to penetrate to that
southern point. Since first the men of science yearned to know the secrets
of the frozen north, the annals of history have been filled with the disasters
of the ice. Hemmed in on all sides by the vast seas of unyielding packs, sur
rounded by the vengeful ice bergs, driven by the raging tempests, caught by
the deadly undertow that flows with relentless fury around the edges of thr
great packs, the science and mind of man has been taxed to its utmost to over
come the innumerable and forces of blind power of nature. .
But that hope of conquest, the love of the mystery of the unknown, the
ambition to become of service to the world of science has lead these men to
forfeit life, prospects, and domestic happiness on the altar of national glory.
Filipinos Not Ready For Independence

" Philippine Islands
I AM a friend of the Filipino people, with whom I was closely associated
for almost six years. '
For these masses I have profound sympathy united with a deep
admiration for their patient struggling and a firm confidence in their
future npliftment, always provided that the United States government
will not ABANDON THEM TO THE SMALL GROUP OF "PO
LITICOS" who are doing all the shouting for independence.
I CONSIDER IT UNWISE AND UNSAFE TO ATTEMPT TO CON
FER REPRESENTATIVE GOVERNMENT UPON ANY PEOPLE WHITE,

MORNING ENTERPRISE, SATURDAY, DECEMBER 20, 1913
The ambition to be the first to plant at the top of the world the flag of their
native country has taken many of the explorers north and south. It has en
abled them to brave the perils of unknown oceans, to face the powerful un
dertows of the northern seas, to suffer all of the hardships that the cold, bare,
bleak northern lands of mystery can center on the heads of the explorers.
Such men as these have contributed something to science and to history.
The tales of hardship and bravery tnat the northern seas can tell contains the
everlasting names of those great adventurers who were lured, not as the Span
ish explorers by the love of gold or the fascination of the Fountain of Eternal
Youth, but by that ambition to add to the national glory by first planting the
flag at the world's top and contributing something to the world's knowledge
of the conditions on that undrawn part of the map.
O-
THE MEXICAN CONGRESS, as was expected, has nullified the pres
idential election held in October, on the ground that not enough vot
ers participated. It was stated that returns were received from only
797 out of 14,225 places where ballots should have been cast.
The decision of the members present was unanimous, though it was
noted that the so-called "Catholic" Deputies did not attend. The upshot is
that General Huerta remains in control of affairs at the Mexican capital and
wherever his military forces are able to hold their ground against the so
called "Constitutionalists."
On the face of the situation President Wilson's "moral boycott," as we
may term it, does not seem to be effectuating very much. We have daily
rumors of Huerta's fall. Nevertheless he holds on. We have daily tales by
way of the Rio Grande of "Constitutionalist" victories. - Yet they do not
seem to rid Mexico of Dictator Huerta.
However, Mexican politics is peculiar, as every reader of Mexican his
tory knows. More than once a Mexican President or dictator whose position
looked more secure than Huerta's has found himself deposed overnight. Un
doubtedly seven-tenths of Huerta's supporters who are most fervid in their
professions of loyalty are on their toes ready to jump whichever way the cat
jumps. That is Mexican politics.
Yet if General Huerta should succeed in beating down or buying off the
most of his opponents the position of the United States would be peculiar and
somewhat embarrassing. For President Wilson has publicly declared that
we cannot do international business with General Huerta on any terms.
Sooner or later we shall have to do international business in Mexico with
somebody. Preception of that fact may tend to renew conviction of the value
of the recognition of the accomplished fact instead of trying to do interna
tional business according to '"moral" standards which are neither accepted nor
even understood in such countries as Mexico.

WOMAN'S PATIENCE.
When the world wants to express its
appreciation of patience under trials
and difficulties it turns for example
to a man!
It speaks of Job, the man of TJz, who
had boils and was visited by certain
holy men. -
It tells of St, Simon Stylit.es, who
stood on the pillars for thirty-seven
years. '
It recites with fine appreciation the
patience of Lincoln during the trying
days of the great war or repeats the
tale of Washington's endurance In the
winter of Valley Forge.
Wrong, all wrong!
In the lives or the wives and mothers
of men and of their maiden sisters are
to be found In everyday occurrence
better examples of patience than any
men can show. Man's bearing of the
burden is shown in the great affairs of
life that are comparatively easy to sus
tain. Woman's comes Into play in the
little, nagging trifles which, added up.
amount In the aggregate to great sums.
Take, for example, this case of a wo
man in Chicago who was deserted by
her husband forty-seven times. Forty
six time3 she forgave him and took up
anew the load of living with him.
Forty-six times! Then her spirit re
belled and she haled him to court.
"She waited too long," you say.
Agreed. But think of the patience of
the woman and then . take out the
markers from the books wherein are
recorded the patient deeds of men.
"He only lived with me a day or two
at a time," said the brave Chicago wo
man, who has worked hard for the
support of her little ones. "We have
three children, and they hardly know
him. In the six years we have been
mnrried he left me forty-seven times.
I don't want to see him any more. He
never gives me a cent for support."
The man in the case admitted be
record. He was sent to jail when he
told the judge he would not contrib
ute to the support of his wife and chil
dren. How many men, do you think, would
continue to love and forgive women
who had deserted them forty-six times?
Not many!
Only a woman's loving kindness,
strong to bear and sitffer for the sake
of her children, could do it.

Many are the ways that small pieces
of leftover lace can be utilized In the
making of holiday gifts, useful and at
the same time ornamental. They are
thipgs that will delight the heart of
the most fastidious woman. The bag
pictured' is one of those dainty confec
tions that lend themselves to any kind
of rather heavy lace. Silk cord is used
for drawing up the bag, and it is pret
ty when lined with either rose or pale
green thin silk, but it is safest perhaps
to use a. white china, silk lining.
