8IX DEAD MEXICAN8.

A dispatch yesterday said that six Mexicans had "tried to escape from the jail" at San Benito and were shot down sad the bodies left along the road side. Some harsh methods have been recommended for Mepdco, and the Texas ranger seems equal to the emergency. At least, the shooting up of San Benito has stopped.

The American forces in Texas labor under a severe handicap. The Mexican marauders who acknowledge no government and who are amenable to no authority may, whenever hard pressed, retire across the Rio Grande, and the American troops cannot follow. It Is a difficult situation.

Co-operation of tfce. Mexican authorities who control northern Tamaulipas In the name of Carranza h&B been demanded, but these officials are unable or unwilling to co-operate. The arrest of certain specified desperadoes has been requested, but there has been -fto arrests. The Rio Grande seems to be (i safe harried beyond which the murderers and. looters are in no danger.

Were American troops to folloV In pursuit there is no 'doubt that the supersensitive Carranza would raise difficulties which might lead to serious complications. He would doubtless

designate such action as armed invasion of a friendly nation. Just now the United States does not desire further difficulties of this kind, for there is still some faint hope that the* Pan-American proposal may bring results. f*', taeanwhile it seems that the best-the mjlitary authorities can do is to establish an. effective patrol along the boundary. This will be hard work, and will require the services of a large body of: troops. But for the time being, at least, the handicap will be accepted and oVercome.

r11 LE8SON8 OF THE WAR.

One thing which may tie learned from thie war Is the virtue of "digging in." When the. troops have advanced as far as they can, they dig trenches, which ar!e in reality underground fortifications, and they usually succeed,in holding them against all offensive. This lias been the case all along the 300mlle battle line in Belgium, France and Aisace. The Frehch and British and Belgians are there and so, on the other side, are the Germans—and they halve bqen there for months, neither yielding anything of moment They have dlig themselves in. 'This "digging in" is as rood ir» businisaf" a«' it is in war. Those Who are employed may adopt the method with advantage. Having got' as far ahead as they can for the time being go, let them-, by efficient and enthusiastic servlce, dig themselves in. holding firmly what' they have until they see the chancy and feel the strength for another dash onward. Trench digging saves the disaster of retreat and Is no bar to the, forward movement when the time Comes. In fact, it makes for strength and courage for the next on-

SUCCESSION OF STRIKES.

Today it is the ammunition workers of Lowell, Mass., that are out on a strike four thousand of them. They 'want a share of the profit that is coming from "war orders." That is right, they should havfe their share, but the whole situation offers some interesting reflections. Newspaper accounts of sky-rocket rises in stocks of such concerns can be greatly discounted by the Investor. Millions have been made In these transactions, but it is equally certain that as many millions, if not a far greater number, will halve been lost in them before the prices of such shares drop to their proper level, as they surely wilL Dividends are the only true indications of profits and these have not yet attained proportions to justify great increases in the real values of stocks. United States Steel has not paid a dividend on Its common for a year. Bethlehem Steel has never paid a dividend on its common. AlllsChalmers has not yet reached th$ dividend stage, nor has the Baldwin Locomotive works, nor the General Motors company. How the many concern* whose stocks are not listed are affected by the war trade we have no means of knowing definitely, but it is quite evident from those whose official reports are aocessibhe that the actual profits, the profits redived from the manufacture and sale of thSir products, have been greatly exaggerated in the public mind. In numerous cases the war orders have only helped to a temporary restoration of normal business. Many others are only enabled thereby to keep their wheels in motion. If. labor is wise it will first be sure that eaoh goose is laying golden eggs instead of the ordinary edible ones, and then be careful not to kill it

WHAT DO YOU READ?'

Mrs. Hughes, of the Fairbanks library, says that the cards of patrons show a disposition of the readers back to the standard in the way of fiction, and some of the books in demand indicate that Dickens, Meredith, Scott and their contemporaries' still have their patrons.

Every little while a contest based ujion the-identity of,the best novels in! the English language is started. The latest one, fathered by a leading eastern Journal, calls for the six best. The general public is not asked to compete In. the contest. The general public is too apt to be swayed by its temperament and its prejudices. So the lists of a limited number of men of letters have been sought. A few of them responded promptly and fearlessly most of them showed a lack of decision and were inclined to run their lists beyond the limit

It seems to be admitted that the William J. Locke list is pretty hard to tear to pieces. He submitted it without argument or excuse. Here it is: "Tom Jones," Fielding "Tristam Shandy," Sterne "David Copperfield," Dickens "Henry Esmond," Thackerky "The Cloister and the Hearth," Reade "The Egoist," Meredith. ^v!

There's a list to ruminate over. Probably the every day reader is familiar with the third, fourth, fifth and, possibly, the sixth story.

How many have read "Tristam ^Shandy,".and how few have read "Tom Jones?"

Perhaps a .list of the other book titles submitted by the leading writers will be found interesting. They are: "Vanity Fair," "Ivanhoe," "Tale of Two Cities," "The Rise of Silas Lap ham," "The Way of All Flesh," "The Scarlot Letter," "Tess of the d'Urber villes," "Lorna Doone," "Robinson Crusoe."

to Collect Seed Com

An appeal for fanners all over the country to collect as many, good ears of corn as possible, from last year's crops arid save thfem for seed corn for next year owing to possible early frosts this year has been sent out from the department of agriculture at Washington. The message was deceived Thursday morning by W. R. Cade, meteorologist in charge of the local weather station and was as follows:

Owing to the generally backward state of this year's corn crop in maiiy of the northern but important growinfe section of the telt, there is danger of injury to the crop by killing frost, the occurrence of which may be expected

ai any time, it is'therefpre Important thAt every effort possible7 be made to secure good seed for next year's crop.. Where any. of/last, year's corn Is left it should be gone over and the .best ears saved unevenly. Moreover, as corn matures unevenly, ft Is possible to secure seed- from' the early ears before the rest of the crop is matured.

In giving but this message, Meteorologist Cade stated that it-should' not be- construed as a definite forecast for frost at an early date. No frost forecast Is being made ,now. The Beasoh is getting late, and the time for killing froS't drawing nearer, and the attention of« the farmers is Simply being called to the need for good seed next year.
