Kresge Bldg. (Official City, State and County Newspaper) ‘PAWNEE BILL, THE WEST, AND MR SHAKES. PEARE Pawnee Bill, whose private name is Maj. Gordon W. Lillie, admits that he doesn't get any kick out of Shakespeare. The picturesque Oklahoma frontiersman visited New York the other day, and reporters who interviewed him happened, somehow, to mention Shakespeare, * Pawnee time ago and took it home to give it a trial. He dipped first into Romeo and Juliet; but when he had read half of it he chucked the book across the room. Since then the set has been unopened. But Pawnee Bill added that he likes to read, never- theless. “Now, when it comes to books about early western history, I’m there,” he said. “I think people should ‘study that sort of thing a whole lot more. Americans should be interested in the early history of their own country.” ‘To our way of thinking, Pawnee Bill has good sense. The loves of the Capulets 4nd Montagues are apt to geem rather far away and unreal to a modern Ameri- can; but the story of the winning of the west springs from the native soil. It is, unquestionably, one of the greatest romances ever told. Reading about it and soaking it in do more for real, sturdy Americanism than “@ll the tricks the hundred-percenters ever devised. Pawnee Bill himself had a hand in the great ro- mance. He had contemporaries, too; Buffalo Bill, for instance, and Kit Carson, and others whose names have already become legendary. when it was an unknown land, with great herds of buffalo roaming its aromatic plains, and bands of red qavages riding along its dusty water courses. They found it one vast wilderness, and in the space of a man’s lifetime helped make it a land of peaceful farms, busy cities and teeming oil fields. There is not, really, any story quite like it. Nothing has ever happened quite as spectacular, as amazing, as the transformation of the North American continent -during the past century. Pawnee Bill was right. Peo- *ple should study that sort of thing a lot more. There is real meat in it. And the fact that it’s all intensely interesting isn’t They rode into the west Si or three and hog a little space. Half the time he is on the wrong side of the street. The line down the middle of the highway is a mere invitation to him to take a chance. He races along where he has no right-of-way and makes those who have, slow down or be wrecked. As a matter of fact, the take-a-chance driver on streets controlled by stop signs gains very little time. He races past you endangering life and property, but you generally find him waiting at the next inter- section where the signal is against him. i The honest driver who has valid reason for being in a hurry will, if he has good sense, leave the main thoroughfares and proceed on those less frequented where he can drive as fast as speed restrictions per- mit. But Take-a-chance probably. is not reasonably in a hurry. He is merely adventurous. He likes the thrill of horning in, bullying the timid out of his way and missing at high speed by the thickness of the varnish. An Ohio woman the other day set out to learn how to drive a new auto her brother had just bought. She made her attempt on a crowded street, but since she cruised along at 10 miles an hour everything seemed safe enough. Presently, however, she got in front of a street car. The motorman clanged his bell; in a hurried effort to get out of the way, the woman accidentally pressed hard on the accelerator. Her car shot across the curb, crashed into the side of a house and killed three small children, You can write your own editorial on that one. And don’t forget to point out that anyone who takes driving lessons on a crowded city street is a menace to by- standers’ lives, Police officers assigned to traffic duty should make @ point of sorting out and gathering in this type of driver. He is a menace to the peace and safety of the motoring community. HELPING OUR FISHER FOLK More than 100 fishing vessels operating from New England ports have agreed with the Fishing Masters Producers Association of Gloucester, Mass., to sub- scribe a standing fund for the purpose of caring for dependents of lost crews of subscribing vessels, and to care for sick fishermen on such vessels. These fishermen are doing a wise and worthy thing. The men who man the schooners in the northeast At- lantic do not lead an easy life; every year the sea takes its toll of them, and the seaport towns have many tales of destitute families to tell. This fund is a long step in the right direction. The lot of the deep-sea fisherman needs to be lightened all it can. Editorial Comment i A UNIQUE POLITICAL EXILE (New York Times.) What was close to being civil war in Kentucky nearly thirty years ago recurs vividly to mind in connection with the death of former Governor W. S. Taylor of that in hit il Indianapolis. He was one of the sombre time when William Goebel 1 contest and Taylor of the two party allegiances faced each other at Frankfort. It was in those days that Henry Watterson and other | ing Kentuckians feared riotous outbreaks exceeding any in the country’s history. But the flight of Taylor, and the tria] and imprisonment of those charged with Goe- bel’s murder, allayed the passions of the people; and the crisis passed off into Indiana refused Ken- tucky’s repeated demands for Taylor's extradition on the ground that public opinion was so overwhelmingly against him there would be a lack of justice in his tr For many years it was rumored that Taylor in disguise had several times crossed the Ohio River in darkness and visited his old home in the foothills by the only reason for recommending it. The story of pioneer days has a moral; it is an object lesson in cour- ‘age, democracy, industry, vision. The men who won the west were ardent individualists, faithful lovers of free- @om.° They knew what their job was and they were willing to spend their lives on it, working and fighting to bring reality to their dreams. It is a great story. Absorbing it will make your Americanism sturdier and finer. THE DREAM OF PEACE + We like to be considered a very practical people. We fan think of no worse names to call those we dislike than “visionary” or “impractical.” We pride ourselves on our hard-headedness. So it is that, while we are a peace-loving nation, we do not give ourselves very whole-heartedly to organized Peace movements.

There was little about him to make him a fitting dramatic unit in the exciting episode. He from the tural county of Butler, plain in manner, rude in speech, with a good but not a first-rate mind. Nominated by his party for Governor in 1899, he was given the élec- tion certificate on the face of the returns over Goebel, who filed a contest in the Legislature and was declared to have been duly elected. Taylor set up a rival gov- ernment. Feeling ran so high, and dark tales of pro- jected dirty political dealing were so rife, that many armed Republican mountaineers came down to the capital, there to be faced by citizens with guns from the Democratic areas; the Bluegrass, the Pennyrile and the Purchase. Taylor proceeded to the courts; and it was at this moment that Goebel was assassinated as_he passed a hackberry tree in the Capitol grounds. The shot came from a State building near by. The Repub- lican Secretary of State and sorhe Taylor gunmen were arrested.

But every cause that ever was worth supporting looked hopeless in the beginning; and the organized movement for world peace is not yet out of its swaddling clothes, It is hardly @ century since the most fervid dreamer dared suppose that war could be abolished.

Marshall, by the way—Ken- tucky’s demand for extradition might have been granted, but meanwhile Kentucky had elected a Repub- lican Governor, who in 1909 pardoned Taylor. He did not, however, return, and it is entirely probable that his fears for safety at home were justified. For the Democrats firmly believed that he was a conspirator in the a ination plans, and many a pistol was believed to be primed for him in old Kentucky homes. THE FARM IS THE FOUNDATION (Duluth Herald.) _, Secretary of Agriculture Jardine, who has been vis- iting the president in his summer retreat, brings a good report of farm prospe: . He says that the crop outlook is uncommonly prom- ising, with very few spots, and those small ones, where disaster threatens the farmer’s hopes. Dr. Jardine does not by this minimize the need of farm relief, which he believes should take the form of still better tariff protection and government help in co- operative crop marketing. But he does believe that the outlook for farm pros- Thus have our ideas changed in a little more than 200 years. Painfully and by inches, we have progressed.

They are Soto y Gama and Aurelia Manrique, leaders of the Agrarian party. These two have made continuous attacks on the Laborites, whom they charged with the real responsibility for Obregon’s death through cre- ation of an atmosphere of hostility to him which stirred up a fanatic to murder, Their sudden emergence may seem rather startling to most of us, | r but neither is a new figure in Mex-| ico’s political and social life. Strangely enough, we know much less about the internal affairs of! that country which borders on our own for nearly 1600 miles than we do about the affairs of nations across the Atlantic. One of the two strongest men in Mexico’s contemporary history h: passed from the picture, leaving a somewhat confused struggle for wer behind. The disappearance rom power—either by death, as in the case of Abregon, or by passing from office, as in the case of Presi- dent Calles—of one who has favors to bestow brings about new political alignments at once. Seek Personal Gain If the disappearance comes by violence, under circumstances such as the Obregon murder, the poli- tician naturally seeks personal ai vantage or gain for his cause by trying to guide the current of aroused public opinion in channels favorable to his interests. That sort of thing took place in our own country after the deaths of Pres’ dents Lincoln, Garfield ley at the hands of fai The two Agrarian leaders, Man- rique and Soto y Gama, happen to be men of impeccable personal char- acter, but they are intensely devot- ed _to their cause, Manrique was a former goyernor (\¥ Y SUPPLY.

During the great revolution Soto y Gama was a leader of the Agrar- jan forces of Morelos and chief a viser of the famous Zapata brothers, who dominated the Agrarians of that state. These Agrarians were the real “irreconcilables” of the tevolution and refused to give fealty to any of the chiefs whom the revo- lution brought into power. “The land for the people” was their battle cry.

He is said to have lived poring the revo- lution period continuously in the saddle, with a Bible in one pocket of his blouse and a book on eco nomics in the other.

Like most dreamers, Manrique was a poor administrator and his excess of zeal for justice and de- cency in public affairs was his un- doing. The state of San Luis Potosi almost ceased to function admin- istratively and Manrique was forced to retire while the legislature elected another governor to serve the bal- ance of his term. For a few years Manrique lived in retirement in Mexico City, filled with bitterness at this treatment which met his attempt to build up a model state. He only emerged again into _prominence during the Obregon election compaign, in which he became one of the chief orators accompanying the presidential can- didate. ids f IN NEW YORK ———_—__—__—_____—_—__—» New-York, Aug. 8—New York is full of boys who are fired with am- bition. They have, one and all, their heroes whom they watch and copy in every .way possible.

The same blood which carries the nutritive ele- ments to the tissues also carries away their waste products, A tired person is a person poisoned by his own waste products. In order to protect us against this, nature has provided means for our body to destroy these poisons or to discharge them through eliminative organs. When these poisons are removed from the blood we feel refreshed. Many diseases are brought on by fatigue. You may have noticed that your colds usually develop after vou have been up late the night before or were over-tired: This is because the poisons of fatigue had formed in your body, and the tired eliminat- ing organs were not working at their full strength and allowed the noi- sons to accumulate. During rest and sleep these organs have an oppor- tunity to purify the body. The fact is that the elimination of these toxic substances will make one feel stronger, and this is one of the reasons why patients often feel stronger after fasting for eight or ten days. Many times they feel sily exhausted at the beginning of a fruit fast, because of the stirring up of toxins in the body, and then they actually begin to feel stronger day by day until their systems have become more cleansed. An_irre- sistible hunger will make itself felt when the body needs food. A feeling of weakness is not usu- ally an indication that the body needs food. It either means that the body needs a rest or that poisons have been allowed to accumulate within the body. . Sleep provides the rest for the nervous system.
