Victorious Villa, the terror of Mexico, seems to have received
his first set-back at Torreon, where his forces were defeated
with great slaughter. The varying fortunes of war, which tend
to show that the contending factions are about evenly matched,
would indicate that the struggle is no nearer an end than it was
months ago. The government still seems strongly intrenched
except in the northern part of the republic, where the sway of
the rebels is complete.
Chicago is swelled up because since women can vote there and
not in New York, it now has more voters than Gotham. Still
New York has it over Chicago in the matter of population and
wealth so why try to get so much satisfaction just from count
ing the voters. Allowing for repeaters and Tammany JNew
York can still cast the more votes.

The Town Row
' We had an ancient, vicious fray, at l'liuktown-on-lhe -Heights, nnd people
raised Old Ned by day, and filled with strife the nights. I hi-lpcd to paint the
village red, and fought our faction's foes; one day I had a busted head, tho
noxt a ruined nose; and oft my eyes wero in a sling, ami lifo was so mtenso I
couldn't smile or dauco or sing for twenty-sovent cents. One day I snt me down
to lest, a poultice on my face, and then thcro ciinio a stiangor guest, a man of
wondrous grace. "I've watched your wrapping far and near, to put your
foes to rout,1 and now," he said, "I'd liko to hear what all the row's about."
I hammed and stammered for a Bpoll about our local war; to save my nock I
couldn't tell whnt we'd been scrapping for. "I've asked and nsliod," the
strnnger said, as lie prepared to go, "why this poor burg is painted red, and
no ono socms to know." Then I obtained a flag of truco, and sought my'
warmest foe full often I had cookod his goose, and ho had Inid nio low. "I
welcome peace," said ho, "by heck, so let tho White Dove whiz! " And then
he wept upon my nock, and I shod tears on his. We thus might squelch most
village rows, and shako our load of care; lint wo keep wrangling till the cows
come home, their tails in air.

AN AIRY NOTHING WITH A NAME.
w l PON several of the nominating petitions appears the sentl
I ment "Equal and exact justice for all", or words of that
I import. It is a splendid sentiment that appeals to every
American. The only trouble with it is that: "there ain't
no such thing". The poet Saxe divided mankind into two classes:
"Those who have money and those who have not". It seems
like a cold blooded proposition to even think that the quality
of mercy and the inexorable demands of , Justice should be
warped, stretched and distorted just as the party interested
has money or has not, yet it is the case. The gallows is a
luxury reserved for the poverty stricken murderer while the
insane asylum if any thing is within reach of the man with
money, as witness Harry Thaw, and then the offense is
smoothed down by having the name homicide saddled on it.
A murder is the act of the poverty stricken, while homicide is
the same thing wrapped up in a different package for the
criminal with the dough. The well-to-do man pays a fine for
his misdemeanors while his poorer neighbor goes to jail or
gets a few days exercise on the rockpile. It is so through all
the ramifications of the law.
In tho matter of divorce for instance, it is no longer neces
sary for those who can afford to pay for the privilege to have
their names dragged before the public. Divorces are as easy
as anything else the lawyers have to hand out with tho courts'
help, if you have the price. A few days ago the Goelets set
tled up their martini difficulties not in the courts but out of
them. The lady in the case was granted a divorce for "cruel
and abusive treatment" which was the allegation in her com
plaint. She did not have to appear in court neither did the
husband. The lawyers fixed it all up and submitted the
papers and decree to the complaisant judge who signed them.
The disposition of the children, unfortunate results of the
marriage, was made by mutual agreement outside of the court
room and the testimony, which had been reduced to writing in
the home of the lady, was read to the judge in whispers lest
the poppy-pctuled edges of her feelings should be ruffled.
"Equal rights to all; Special privileges to none", makes a
fine slogan, whatever that is, but as wns said before: "There
ain't no such thing".

When it comes to twisting tho British lion's tail Senator
Chamberlain seems to be some twicer. Probably it is good
politics because a majority of western voters are natural-born
jingoes, always spoiling for a scrap, but in contrast with these
rod-hot appeals to prejudice on the floor of the senate, Presi
dent Wilson's calm logic is reassuring to a large majority of
his countrymen. Politicians and statesmen have after all, very
few attributes in common.
Great Britain is so badly stirred up over the home rule ques
tion that even the militant suffragettes seem lost in the shuffle.
Ulster is virtually in a state of open rebellion with the govern
ment impotent to cope with the situation. The United King
dom seems to be facing one of greatest crises in its history.
The Baker county grand jury has exonerated District Attor
ney Godwin and Sheriff Rand, and placed the entire blame of the
Copperfield affair on Governor West. A grand juror is always
a peculiar animal but sometimes very handy for use by county
officials who need whitewashing.
The aim of government is to protect fools, says Senator
Owens. Probably speaking from recent experience and the help
the government through its court gave him. Senator Owens
should know a whole lot on that subject.
Only thirty-four persons were sent to the hospital to make

Soap Dries Your Scalp, Causing Dan

After washing your hair with soap,
always apply a little Danderine to the
scalp to invigorate the hair and prevent
dryness. Better still, use soap as spar

"Danderine Hair Cleanse." Just mois
ten a cloth with Dandorine and draw it
carefully through your hair, taking one
strand at a time. This will remove dust,
dirt and excessive oil. In a few mo
ments you will be amazed, your hair
will not only bo clean, but it will be
wavy, fluff nnd abundant, and possosB
an incomparable softness and lustre.

PRESENCE OF A FLY
DANGER SIGNAL.
Here is one of tho achievements of science. An escaping
criminal wns located by wireless on a steamer 21 miles at sea.
A hydroplane carrying an olllcer was sent out after him, nnd
the fugitive was returned to the town from whence he fled, and
there tried for his crime. It would have made us shake our
heads a few years ago of Jules Verne had told us such a story.
Six burros have been bought by the
forestry department t be used in sot-,

Corset. They will be nod by the men

assisting prospective setllers to locate
upon lands.
THE fly has betn tried and
found guilty, in spite of
the questionings of those
who maintain the aootrine that
vary creature performs some
uiaful purpose. Undoubtedly
the fly does, for where tharo is
n abundance of filth there will
tho flias gather together, there
will they multiply and inortan.
Their function today is nothing
more or less than a danger sig
nal to indicate insanitary con
ditions. Abolish then, and the
