Ella Wheeler Wilcox. A CHANCE FOR A SCENIC DRIVE FOR WILSON, NOT HUGHES BECLARING that real pro gressives will support Woodrow Wilson. Mat thew Hale, acting chairman ot the progressive national com mittee. has issued a statement in which he gives his reasons for not being "delivered" to the republican party. "I shall do all I can to help reelect President Wilson," he says, and follow ing are his reasons : "He has actually put into ef fect more progressive legisla tion than any president we have ever had. I .need only cite the federal reserve law, the direct election of United States senators, the rural credits act and the federal employment bureau. His persistent advocacy of the national child labor law shows that he is as eager as ever to continue this legisla tive record. He has shown great sympathy for the whole progressive movement, and he has shown an ability to secure the co-operation of his party in putting his progressive ideas into actual legislation. "Mr. Hughes, on the other hand, does not impress one as being in real sympathy with the underlying economic ideals of the progressive party. His speeches when they deal with these questions sound like or dinary republican stump speeches, patting the laborers on the back with vague phras es and congratulating the em ployers for their "welfare work." THE DEUTSCHLAND'S DYES dyes brought here by the Deutschland are not in paste, as usual, but in a concentrated form, dry, containing 100 per cent of color instead of about 20 per cent. Here we have it. Ten dol lars a pound is mentioned as the commercial price of these ilyes. calculated upon a critical schedule. The color situation is not greatly relieved by this submarine importation. We must yet look to the develop ment of the art of dye-making in this country. And here the prospect of ultimate independ ence is encouraging. SPLENDID TRAINING FOR THEM HE project for a road through the mountains along the route of the old stage road up the Umatilla river via Bingham is worthy of investigation because of the benefits that would result from such a road could it be estab lished. The road would provide an easy grade through the moun tains, and a drive of great ; flf HOUGH the Deutschland ' brought a cargo of 350 tons of dyestuff the ship ' ment has done little to relieve ;the situation in this country, ! because the price charged for the dye is far above normal, i We are told, first, that the cost in Germany is at least twice what it was before the ! war; secondly, that the freight j and insurance charges are j three times as great ; and, per i haps, more essential, that the rNCE the necessities of the Mexican situation re quire that the national guard ,be kept on the border. perhaps for some months to come, it is cheerful to kno-"i that the health of the loidlenl is uniformly good. As a matter of fact army camp life, when well organ-; ized as can be in time of peace,! makes an ideal vacation for the i average young man. It is a; acation of which he may tire i but physically at least it will be good for him. Interesting along this line is a letter written to the president by an Iowa infantryman at Sanj Benito, Texas. In it he says : "It is most unusual that a private should take the liberty of addressing the president, and I would not do so except that certain newspapers, news paper men and a very few soft handed guardsmen have creat ed a series of wild yarns re garding our alleged mistreat ment in the mobilization camps, "I am both a soldier and a newspaper man and I believe most firmly that never have soldiers of any country been better treated than we have been, that never before have men who joined the service of their country found their health and general well-being so carefully looked after. "But as a matter of cold, hard facts, the men of the guard are leading now just the sort of lives that young men with red blood in their veins would like to lead." From the standpoint of in creasing the military efficiency of the guard nothing could be better than the border experi ence. The guard regiment will come home filled with sea soned veterans instead of the raw recruits who went south some weeks ago. For years to come the nati onal guard will reflect the in creased efficiency acquired by service on the Mexican border.

Telephone 179 Circumstances alter cases very frequently and the fact is as true in international affairs as elsewhere; a president who could not meet changing con ditions would get the nation in trouble indeed. Much liquor is shipped into the state under the dry regime but long distance buying does not carry with i the old time fraternity of the barroom which led men to drink when they should not do so.
