Few newspapers have the nerve to criticise any o f the educational methods in use today, no differ ence how ridiculous or extrava gant they may anpear. There is a hue and cry raised whenever there is any criticism o f modern methods and the objector is term ed an obstructor, a knocker and many other undesirable names. For this reason people hesitate to render just criticism and things are allowed to creep in that is not for the best o f society in general. The Oregonian, however, is in position to be independent of such little attacks and can strike out from the shoulder when it sees fit to do so. It hands out the follow ing: “ The Oregonian gives space to day to a detailed defense of sew ing in the public schools, furnish ed by the high school sewing su pervisor. It is interesting; but it has nothing which might not have been expected from an enthusias tic supporter of this particular kind o f instruction as a branch of school work. W e have no doubt that the girls are well trained; nor have we any doubt that the teachers and supervisors will com pare well with the professors of the sewing science in other -cities. The question The Oregonian has raised has not been so much a crit icism o f the quality as th j cost of the work; and it has been led to speculate on broader matters of school policy in undertaking ser vice o f this kind. We are not convinced that sewing should be taught in the schools; we know it ought to be taught at home. T he Oregonian’s inquiry as to sewing salaries is met by our cor respondent with a recitation o f the fact that Los Angeles and other cities pay more. Ah, yes! It is the old, familiar tactics. Every effort to pry up salaries in all branches of the public service in Portland is supported by numer ous citations from the payrolls of Seattle, or Spokane, or Los An geles, or San Francisco. We never hear o f the places which pay less than Portland. But it is always that Portland is cheap, because it does not overpay, as some others do. That appeal has been ding- donged into the ears of school directors, and City Commissioners, and County Commissioners, and Legislators until public employes as a rule get far more than work ers in similar private employment. I f there is a good reason why a city or a state or a school district should pay sewing teachers, for example, tar more than they could earn on their merits under in dividual employers, The Oregon ian would like to hear it. The maximum wage for elemen tary sewing teachers in Portland is $110 per month; the minimum is $95 per month. W e have examin ed the sewing payrolls for Novem ber and December, and there is THE LAST MEXICAN OUTRAGE The killing o f a trainload o f Americans in Mexico by the beat- en faction o f Villa’s bandits was on land very much like the sink ing o f the Lusitana at sea. The men should never been sent there without sufficient guard to protect them. The United States govern ment in concert with Brazil, A r gentine and Chili recognized Car ranza and withdrew all help and recognition from Villa, who had won all Carranza’s victories. That left Villa in the same situation that the Southern Confederacy was in after Appomattox. The Southern soldiers went to their homes and began to build up their broken fortunes. Villa’s soldiers , . . , , broke up into ^ucrillil Oil nets snd commenced to loot friend and foe alike. Their atrocities culimnated in this last murder o f nineteen Americans. It was a natural con clusion and is not a surprise to anyone who knows anything about Mexican character. There is just now a sudden great outcry against President Wilson, and it is just, this far. President Wilson from the first has not only known noth ing o f Mexican character, but has refused to learn anything. He took up a theory that the way to subdue a Bengal tiger was to feed him soothing syrup. When Huer- ta caused the assassination o f the president o f Mexico, except for the president’s stubbornness and his refusal to be'ieve the truth about the Mexican nature he would have set the army and navy in motion proclaiming to the world and to Mexico that it did not want one foot o f Mexican soil, but that it was determined that there should be order in Mexico and the safety o f Americans and all for eigners there should be assured. It would have been fixed there two yeais ago and before this time the natural industries of Mexico would have been resumed, our army and navy removed; there would have been no longer any fear o f murder and the heart burnings would long ago have ceased. The blame o f the pres ident is that he was determined to work the business out his own way and his refusal to accept the statements o f men who knew what they were talking about. He has put his trust in Carranza who is the least worthy o f belief o f all the long list o f bandits and murderers, and liars, who have one after another come to the surface there and who has not so far fulfilled one expectation of those who enabled him to obtain control. The hardest thing that can be said about President W il son is that he has no natural ap titude, no training, no experience to fit him to cope successfully with assassins and thieves who have for the time being obtained places where they can prey upon their fellow men. We are not at all certain that the most just and expeditious way to settle the troubles o f Mexico would be even at this late day to take that coun try, establish order, then call an election and establish a govern ment. The mining companies who sent the officers and men there to resume work in their mines, without first taking means to protect them, merely made clear that they knew as little about Mexican character as did President Wilson himself. VILLA CAPTURED The >atest reports are that Francisco Villa has been captured and will be returned to Juarez for execution. His band o f 60 men were also captured and immed iately executed.

Impoverished nerves destroy many people before their time. Often be fore a sufferer realizes what the trouble ‘is, he is on the verge of a complete nervous breakdown It is of the utmost importance to keep your nervous system in good con dition, as the nerves are the source of all bodily power. Mr= Posa Bonner, 825 N. 18th St., Birming ham, Ala., says: "I have been suffering with nerv ous prostration for nine or ten years. Have tried many of the best doctors in Birmingham, but they all failed to reach my case I would feel as if I was smothering, finally I went into convulsions My little girl saw advertised in the papers and f at once began to take It I continued to take it for some time and now I am well." If you are troubled with loss of appetite, poor digestion, weakness, inability to sleep; if you are in a general run down condition and unable to bear your part of the daily grind of liftp. you need some thing to strengthen your nerves You may not realize what is the mat ter with you, but that is no reason why you should delay treatment.
