If Hnerta's government was worthy
of recognition, why didn't the laft
administration recognize it? Tba re
publican organs, including the Ore
gonian have suddenly sprang a spon
taneous desire for recognition of the
Mexican murderer and his arsenal
ized official gang whom the recently
deposed ambassador jefrrs to as the
Mexioin government. President Wil
sou and Secretary Bryan, from appear
ances, fail to see any semblance of
government in Mexico at the present
time. In'view of the faot that dollar
diplomacy is not in favor with the
present administration, no gov
ernment is to be recognized in Mexico
until there is a government to recog
nize. Which from the President's
view will be along ahoot October 26,
when the presidential eleotlon is held
in Mexico, when the people will have
a ohanoo to vote on who shall govern
them. .

This is the MoAdoo way of taking
the reins oat of the hands of Wall

out from the old way, isn't it. The
way that some yoara ago compelled

Ally tntored republican news organs
are lamenting that Bryan end Mo
Roynolds are members of tbe WUhou
fvtlnet. Inferenoe is made that
uNide from these two, Wilson 'has a
very respectable official family. Come

Burglars and the Law.
Remarking that many members of
tbe public feel some doubt as to tbe
precise extent to which the law will
uphold them in using violence to defeat
or capture n burglar, the Law Journal
of London says: "A peaceful tres
passer must be requested to depart in
peace, and only on his refusal can
force be used to remove him, but a
violent or an armed trespasser can be
removed without such a request As
a general rule, however, it is not law
ful to kill even a person assaulting one
or stealing one's goods. Unless one's
life Is in danger such an act Is at best
tun nsln lighter Possibly in the defense
of one's borne the use of firearms Is
Justifiable, even If no violence to the
person is threatened, but this Is very
doubtful."
A Lost Chance.
Years ago a man named Snltzmnnn
owned an estate In Grlqualand, South
Africa, and adjoining his property was
an old, rundown farm that bad not
been worked on account of Its poor soil
nr.d lack of necessary water. The own
er of (he farm met Ilerr Saltzmann one
day and offered to trade tbe farm for
sn old waistcoat he bad seen him wear
ing As Snltzmnnn did not wish to
burden himself with a piece of worth
less land, be kindly refused the offer.
A few years later big, clear diamonds
were found on this waste stretch, and
now thousands of pounds could not
purchase It London Mall.

"I've had myStudebaker
15 years and not
a cent for repairs"
A word of just praise for a wagon that has
done its work faithfully and well.
Men become attached to their Studebakers
proud of them.
Because they realize that a Studebaker is
built on honor and with an experience in wagon
building that dates back to 1 852.
Studebaker wagons are a result of that long
experience, coupled with a desire to build the
best wagons, not cheap ones.
And when your dealer says "Buy a Studebaker
there's no better wagon made" he's giving you
the verdict of a million farmers. He is not asking
you to try an experiment.
