From scrubbing decks to pushing shovels; 0. Lord, take me safely home, I promise the sea no more to roam. Amen. Lities have miles and miles ot streets or roads to maintain, and this shifting of all the road tax money to districts out side the city, is an unfair advantage ami works a hardship upon town peo ple, as it, makes the residents of the cities help keep up the high ways outside the city, and forces them to re-tax themselves to keep up their roads or streets within the city. Some may argue that cities are dependent upon the sur rounding country and should help keej up the highways out side so that those living in the country can get to the cities to trade. It is true that cities are dependent to a large extent upon the surrounding country but it is equally true that the cotitrtry is dependent upon the cities and that each in its own peculiar way is a help to the other, for while the town draws its sup plies from the country, it is the city life that makes a market for the farmer, the dairymen, and the stock raiser. There should be no strife be tween the city dweller and the country people, but equity should abound, and since con ditions have obtained as they now exist, it is necessary that this city should become a sepa rate road district in order to protect its citizens from unjust taxation. It is claimed that a certain portion of the tax will go to the county anyway. Well, what if it does? Half of a loaf is just that much better thjun no bread at all and if a part of the fund must be taken out to keep up bridges and other repairs, we bad much better get what is left than to get no part at all. The Herald is in favor of getting all that is to he had. A Doomed Despotism The Mexican rebels have gained several victories over the lluerta forces and have taken the opportunity to retaliate upon the federals for the execution of constitutionalists who were cap tured and put to death. Both sides seem to think that six feet under the sod is the safot place to hold a political enemy. The law of love linds no way of entrance into a strife-torn nation. The Mexican question is rath er one of suspense, and keeps the public nerve tin a prolonged strain. It reminds us of a re mark attributed to an old farm er, in the east, whose wife had been confined to her bed for a long time through a severe sick ness, when he said: "I she would get well or suthin."

The Panama canal is becom ing a bone of contention between the English Bulldog and the American Mastiff. The Bull dog has commenced to show his teeth. Wall Street always does things on a large scale. A linn there has failed for .").( 100,000. The only small thing about the linn was its assets. For reasons of humanity, President Wilson shrinks from a recognition that will enable the Mexican constitutionalists to secure arms and munitions for a more aggressive warfare upon the Huerta despotism.
