ASSEMBLYISM
The pregon Voter says:
"Coos County is figuring on hold
ing a Republican County Convention
to nominate for the skite senate and
house for representatives. (
The nominees of the convention
would be voted upon at the primar
ies, and would have behind thorn what
ever strength tfiere was in tllo con
vention. The whole State will watch with
interest the development of this move.
All we have to say is that there is
not a man In Coos county big enough
strong enough, and with friends
enough nblo to gut into the legislature
from Coos county, from any party who
had to bear the handicap of a cau
cus assembly or convention endow
ment or any other machne-made label
WHY?
As shock of the daring e1ip in the
face which Villa gave the United
States subsides there are several in
cidents ctnnccted with his raid that
grow perplexing in the light of calm
reflection. How did it happen that
he was able to pass within a few yards
of the Army camp without dotocMor. 7
Why was no guard placed by the offic-ercr-
of the guard at a deep draw ap
proaching the town of Columbus from
the direction of the border and up
which the Villislas made their way?
Why, as related by the Associated
Press dispatches was tho commanding
officer occupying quarters in an up
town hotel rather than in camp with
his men? Why, when !a group of
bandits enmo under tho muzzles of a
niachino gun, did that instrument of
destruction fail to operate?
Of course, the biggest question is
thnt relating to tho possibility of such
a raid lat all. But questions multiply
rapidly oven when wo lccognize the
fact that it did occur. Having oc
curred and the Government having de
termined upon a punitive invasion,
why tho lor-.g delay in wsBcmbling a
small expedition a force such as the
'most diminutive nation of Europe
might equip and launch in u few hours
Why were cars not nvailablc for trans
porting troops? Why were supplios
not available for immediate issue?
Why were not nil the impedimenta for
such n force immediately available?
Thcso questions are all the more
perplexing to tho lay mind when one
considers that Villa had openly boast
ed of his intended attack. He liad dis
played his temper by murdering six
teen helpless Americans in Chihua
hua. We were told a dozen times in
the month or two preceding tho raid
that ho had some overt act in mind.

All these circumstances lead to suspi-'
cion that pursuit of Villa is not the
only consequence which the attack of
Columbus merits. A court of in- j
quiry ought to shed important light,
on the unanswered questions of theist-lited Uiat tne elaborate primary

CAPITALISM
A hldius Monstrosity"
Stalks throughout land,
The trail of its ferocity
You sec on every hand,
It has no county has no flag
Yet it will drag
Nations in to strife
Then, feed on their life.
o
It rules supreme on land and wave
Robs you, from cradle to the grave
It is the cause of destitution
Of hunger and of prostitution.
On the Virgin maid
Its claws are laid
Then, lets its victim lay
Defiled on the way
u
The gore of youth it spills
Your homo with sorrow fills
And heedless of your groans,
Sucks the marrow from your bones
It's very cunningly devised
It has you hypnotized
To think that its polluUcn,
Is u godly institution.
With insatiable groed,
On all things it will feed,
!n to slavery it will luro
loth the rich and the poor.
E'n thos;, that think they gain,
Look for happiness in vain,
For it poisons all,
That in its cluches fall.
o
s very victims are its ucicmicrs
Ami worse, its poison renders
Them numb nnd blind
And paralyzed in brain and mind
Thsy will kill each other at its be
hest They ctr.rve, they suffer, do their
beat
To keep in slavery tho rest
What did I sny, each other? '
Nay, They will kill tho very mother
That gave them life
And run a knife
In to their father or brother
o
This devil child on murder bent
It is called Profit, Interest, Rent,
I appeal to you and to your wife
For help, to end this Monsters life.
To kill it, takes but a trifle,
You do not need a rifle,
You can shoot it full of holes
With your Ballot at tho Polls.

BEATING THE PRIMARIES
With duo respect to Charles W.
Fairbanks, it may be said that the
Prosidcntal primary in Indiana which
stives him, without opposition the de
legation from that state to the Na
tional Republican Convention, is no
more indicative of public opinion than
x ukase by the Czar of Russa.
The bosses, local and national, with
tho consent of all the candidates, do
jrecd that there should be no contest
in Indiana. By courtesy Mr. Fair
banks is to have the delegates from
his state, as Mr. Cummins is to have
the delegates from Iowa and various
other laspirants are to have the dele
gates from their own bailwicks. In
this way the captains of tens and the
captains of fifties will appear nt tho
convention prepared to trade precise
ly as tlicy always have done.
A good deal of the enthusiasm with
SUIT
Lowest
which the direct-primary reform Was
welcomed has vanished in the presence
of actual results. To say nothing of
the stupid restrictions embodied in
most of the laws, it has been demon-
machinery now in operation is in
many cases less responsive to public
opinion than the old fres-and-easy
cr.ucuses. This is true in particular
of the choice of delegates to conven
tions who are selected in advance by
the bosses, leaving the voter n"o alter
native but to accept them.
We shall hear a good deal presently
of the need of national primaries by
tnojns of which the people will always
be able to nominate candidates for the
Presidency in spite of Warwicks of
the conventions, but nobody will be
able to tell us just how the celojiratcd
favorite-son trick is going to be elimi
nated. New York World.
EMINENTLY FIT
, Mr. Taft has joined tho hue nnd cry
against Brandeis. He tells the sena
torial investigating committee that 'he
thinks the appointment eminently un
fit". Mr. Taft has a good memory.
He recalls with bitter reflections how
Brandeis handled his precious Bulling
ir and how he showed up t'.".o indiscre
tions of Mr. Taft himself. The pursy
chief of the standpatters did not, ac
tually forge a public document, wo
3uppose, but ho did the next thing to
it in order to back up Ballinger.
Brandeis exposed the scurvy business
Therefore, Mr. Tuft thinks him "emi
nently unfit"
The eminently fit man in his eyes
is round and rosy and goodnatured,
and spells his name with four letters.

It. A. Copple who returned last even
ing from a two months buyine; trip in
the cast, for the Golden Rule store.
He came back by way of Los Angeles

ple and children, who are spending the
winter in the south. They will pro
bably return to Marshfield when
school is over.
Business moves so fast in Now York
that it's hard to keep track of things
said Mr. Copple and he admitted that
he is still a bit bewildered as to what
it is all nlniut
He said that "everyone seems to have
work and everyone seems to have
money. Some of the hotels have got
to the point where despite tho fact a
person may want a single room, he
is nevertheless charged a double price
for it. The demand in somo places is
greater than cm bo supplied.
Thero was continual snow while Mr.
Cople was in the east. The street
cleaning department issued a call for
snow shovelers and could only get a
bout half as many as responded in for
mer years, the reason is that every
one soemg to have work, nnd labor is
muchly in demand.
So great is the demand in the mu
nition factories, said Mr. Copple that
irirls arc getting between ?2.G0 and
$:i a day and $1 extra for merely
bringing some other girl to work.
Somo workmen who have experienced
exceptionally lean timea are taking
wild of tho golden opportunity and
working two eight hour shift in fac
