In his tour of the middle west Charles E. Hughes is not sparing the administration. He is hitting out straight from the shoulder. He is put~ ting his finger on the flaws in th policies and the lesislation of the dem- ocratic party, and there is nothing strange therefore that he is being en- thusiastically received by large num- bers wherever he speaks. He has tackled and smashed the democratic claims concerning their accomplish- ments as effectively as the British “tank” cars, made in America, have crushed the enemy. ‘When he declares thet the Under- wood tarift “must be undone if we are going to have a sure basis of prosper- ity in this country” it is a fact which is recognized by democrats as well as by republicans. The oparations of the jaw have made it plain. The demo- crats have even seen the advisability of making some of the needed sitera- tions themseles, but therc still re- mains much to be done, else why have they at the last moment favored a tari®f commission to handle this prob- lem when it was but a few months 8go that they refused an appropria- tion for the continuance of a similar board? Equally true is his statement re- garding the child labor measure which has led the democrats to claim that they have emancipated children, when such is not the case and when there Is a joker in the measure which they have passed which knocks out what was promised. Child labor exists to- day in its worst form in the demo- cratic states and it is those same com- monwealths which have not only fought the emancipation of the chil- Jren but which are strongly cpposed lo it today CARRANZA’S OBLIGATIONS. Carranza is insistent that the ef- lorts of the Mexican delegates shall be devoted to obtaining the recall of the United States troops under Gen- eral Pershing from Mexican territory. He does not favor a discussion of the interior conditions until that matter has been adjusted satisfactorily to him, for that is the thorn in his side which is the most troublesome. Whether the recent operations of Villa wiil cause him to undergo a change of heart is not intimated, but surely he must recognize that if Villa €an make such an attack as he did upon the city of Chihuahua, even though he has not captured it, it must be apparent to him that his forces are not doing all they should and by no means what he claimed they would when he sald that he would control the conditions south of the border if he was recognized. The Pershing expedition has failed to attain its object, the disposal of Villa, because it was called off when the trail was the hottest. It has, how- ever, served to decrease the menace from the bandit leader and it is today foing that very service which Carran- 2a not only should be doing, but prom- ised to accomplish. It is rendering a service to Carranza, if he would but recognize it, though he has not been made to live up to his obligations. To recall the expedition therefore means [right to strike. ~ of each individual, whether he is driv- ing a vehicle or crossing the street. This has been recognized by the judge of a police court in Los Angeles Who has directed that certain juvenile offenders commit to memory the traf- fic laws of the community s a pen- alty for thelr infraction. The idea is an excellent one and in view of the element of personal safety involved it might not be a bad idea if all the children were made better acquainted than théy are with what is expected of them while using the public thor- oughfares where so much danger ex- ists and where so many lives are taken. The effect of such instruction would be the same as the teaching of other important facts to the children. It would tend to make them more observ- ant and there would be firmly im- planted in their minds the necessity of using their heads to profect them- selves, not only while young but as they grow older, and the beneflt of it would also show when the time comes for many of them to operate vehicles. VIOLENCE CANNOT BE TOL- ERATED. Little help is being siven to_their cause by the st:iking rallway men in New York who are resorting to vio- lence in thelr endeavor to win out at any cost. Pqually damaging are the same kind of efforts which are being made by the members of their families or their friends. The idea mav be held that the way to win a strike is to stone cars, inflict injuries and even threaten the lives of those aboard, but as long as such conditions prevail the duty of the authorities is plain, Lawlessness does mot go With a It should never pre- vail in a civilized community. There are many instances where those who actually take part in such disgradeful affairs are less responsible than those who encourage them in it, or who at least fall through their leader- ship to prevent such outbreaks against the peace and laws of a city, but riot- ing and rowdyism must be prevented and those who dance to its tune must expect to pay the fiddler. Just because there is a labor dis- pute it cannot be expected that the right is given to any one to injure, tear down or destroy. Those who re- sort to such measures weaken instead strenathen their argument. Stones ickbats make no Impression up- d those who resort to e must expect that they will like 2ll others who show ttor disrezard for the law and set out to have their own way. The duty of a community under such conditions is clearly indicat It can make no exceptions because there is a strike underway. son, an be trected THE VALUE OF WALKING.

EDITORIAL NOTES. The hay fever nose is as out of piace on some people as a licensed saloon in the state of Maine. No householder is likely to be heard to complain because his coal bin groans under its load of fuel. As the cold weather approaches it cannot be expected that all the police- men will be of the “silent” variety. Of course no one can hardly blame the Mexican delegates for not wanting to discuss the internal affairs of their country. Villa declares that he owes us no gradge, but he cannot expect to get away on any plea of mercy after that attack on Columbus. Irving Cobb is_going to stump for the democrats. Well, it is perfectly proper that all the jokers should not be put into legislation. Thomas Edison has declared for President Wilson.

Inciuding 1is_newly acquired territory the Do- brudja now embraces nearly 9,500 equare miles, with a population of 500,000, made up of many elements— Turks, Rumanians, gypsies onic whim of fate.

Under the improved conditions this section now produces important crops of cereals, tobacco, sugar ceets, and mulberries for silk worm “Bounded on the north and west by c Danube, on the east by the Black a, and on the puth by Bulgaria, Dobrudja is of great strategic im- portance, a fact recognized by the Romans who defended this region on the south by Trajan's Wall, a double rampart_extending from the Black Sea at a point near Constantza, to the ks of the Danube. The present anian-Pulgarian frontier is some 60 miles southwest of this ancient wall, and extends from the river io the sea stance of 100 miles in an airline. he earliest mention of the Do- brudia region is as the home of the Gets and th that the former is the Greek name and the latter the Latin for the same tribe.) Herodotus speaks of this peo ple as ‘the bravest most honor- able of all the Thracian tribe’ and credits them with having at pted to stay the march of the Persians under King Darius in the 6th century be- fore the Christian era. *“One of the most picturesque stor- iest of the ancient inhabitants of Dobrudja is related in connection with an expedition against them headed by Philip of Mecedon. The great general besieging one of the principal towns of the tribe and just as he was abtut to give the signal for an assault the gates were thrown open,6 and a long line of priests, clad in white robes and playing lyres, marched out and came into the camp of the enemy. So impressed was Philip by this sight that he spared the city and took Meda, the daughter of the Getic king, as his wife. Thereafter the Getae were al- lies of the Macedonians in their cam- paign against the Scythians. By the middle of the fourth century B, C. the tribe began to expand beyond the ‘bounds of Scythia Minor, as the region was_then known into the land lying on the left bank of the Danube. “During the last quarter of the Tth century, Isparich, one of the five sons| of the legendary Bulgarian prince Kuvrat, with a band of followers from Bessarabia crossed the Danube into Dobrudja and conquered its people. But the Bulgarians experienced the same fate which the Normans en- countered with the Saxons in.Eng- land—the conquerors were absorbed by the conquered. “By the treaty of San Stefano, which end=d the Russo-Turkish war of 1877- 78, in which the Rumanians distin- guished themselves at Plevna, Do- brudja was ceded to Russia by Tur- key, the express design of the former being to_acquire the land and force Rumania io accevt it in exchange for coveted Bessarabla, as previously stated. “From the point where it becomes the western boundary of Dobrudja. the Danube is a wide stream, flowing be- between low banks. Its waters are studded with numerous islets which are the homes of vast flocks of watgr- fowls—wild swans, wild geese, peli- cans and herons. A famous traveler described the impression which this region makes upon passengers of the river steamers, thus: “At night peli- cans and storks stalking about on lonely islands utter at times a wild ery, which, more than anything I know, brings to the mind the images of solitude and desolation.” WHAT’S THE USE e Dacians (Pliny explains | tell her all about her girthood days in New Hampshire or something else interesting. “I never neglected Harriett's com- fort, so she never had anvthing to complain about.

When the democrats took possession of the house of representatives some- thing more than five years ago, they found a tariff commission in operation. They did not abolish it; they did not undertake any modification of it to iit democratic ideas; but they simply refused to make an appropriation to keep it alive, and it died a natural death, of inanition. That is another and by no means an unimportant pointer that indicates the direction of democratic action or want of action in this case An appropriation that needs renewal in a year will give the oppo- nents of the commission the same op- portunity to kill the present hoard which they found and availed them- selves of, in killing the old ome. If that conclusion is reached it is be- cause the democratic action, past and present, points to and _suggests it.

Some men who would scorn to accept a bribe will vote for the candidate that gives them free rides to the polls.
