WILSON "DICTATOR."

Since Carrnnza has yielded to the United States and by his conciliatory tone has removed the danger of war with Mexico,

fhe

artful critics of Presi

dent Wilson now take the amazing stand that Wilson' is "dictating" to Mexico and that he has gone beyond All bounds of diplomacy and justice in dealing with the first governor.

It has been but a few hours since these same critics were saying that Wilson's policy of watchful waiting was bringing this nation to the brink of war and that the president was guilty of blundering, muddling, and even cowardice.

The shift of base is illuminating to the average reader. Speaking of "dictations," i£ thtf president found it fitted the success oi his policy, he sti had ample precedent for "dictating" a little.

Was it not dictation in "the internal affairs" of Cuba w.ien under President Roosevelt in 1906 the United States took over'the government of. the island republic. Virtually forced the resignation of Palma and established a provisional control under American direction

Was it not dictation in "the internal affairs" of Colombia when President Roosevelt "took" Panama in 1903 and used the military resources of the (United States to prevent Colombia from trying to re-conquer the rebellious

state Was it not dictation in "the Internal affairs" of San Domingo when in 1905 President Roosevelt forced on that nation a treaty under which an agent of the United States appointed by him took charge of the custom houses and administered the finances of the little republic?

What is "dictation" and what are "internal affairs?" It is or.e thing to differ honestly witn President Wilson's handling of the Mexican problem and quite another lo say that his actions have been revolutionary, former presidents, and in particular Mr. Roosevelt, have not scrupled to "dictate the internal affairs" of other nations in this hemisphere when it appeared to them to be in the interests of the people {themselves and to promote the peace

and progress of the two Americas.

THE WAR NEWS.

-According to the war dispatches in today's Tribune a feeling or' optimism hp.s taken hold of London since the tremendous drive of the British troops yesterday, and the London papers are predicting the end of the war ere long.

German preparedness and German 'efficiency have made Germany victorious for twenty-three months. But all this time Germany'6 enemies have possessed great superiority of numbers and an advantage- in resources. It was predicted by the entente statesmen, acquiesced In by neutral observers, and tacitly admitted by Germany that if ^n^he war lasted long enough the numerical advantage* of the allies would be the deciding factor-. Only by a comparatively speedy crushing of her less

Face, Hands and Head Full, Itching and Burning, Hair Fell Out. In 2 Months Completely

HEALED BY CUTICURA SOAP AND OINTMENT

"I was troubled with little red pimples. My face, hands, and head were lull of them and a little on my body.

The pimples would get white on top and then break open and a clear white matter would run

out. This would cause so much itching and burning that I sometimes thought I would turn crazy. My hair came

out and became thin, lifeless, and dry. 'A friend told me about Cuticura Soap and Ointment. In two months I was completely healed." (Signed) Miss Madeline Lulcity, Route 5, Brown City, Mich., February 20, 1916.

efficient enemies could Germany expect to win a complete victory. Were the war to become an endurance test the attrition would weaken the Germans far more than the idlies.

Has the turning point arrived? Has the victorious career of the German armies reached its end, The allies profess to see in the changed aspect of the war the beginning of the end.

But thfe end of the end is yet far distant, even though the optimism of the allies may be justifiable. German efficiency and German steadfastness will prove as dangerous on the defensive as they have on the offensive. To tighten the band of steel around the Teuton empires til. they are crushed into submission must be a task of titanic proportions. The band, which for twenty-three months has been pushed back almost at wil. by the Germans, is just beginning to contract and to hold firm. Germany still hopes that it may again be broken as It was broken at the Dunajec.

WHEN TO STAND.

Why do theatre managers continue to permit their musical directors to make light of the national anthem?

On the night of July 3, at a moving picture house well known for its good music, 'an otherwise enjoyable intermission was marred by the ill timed use of a few barn of "The Star Spangled Banner." In prompt patriotic response, the audience was or. its feet at the first few notes of the piece, only to find that they had been tricked Into standing during the playing of a medley.

If there is anything that a red blooded man objects to, -t is to be thwarted in the expression of genuine emotion. In this oase, the audience rose to do homage to the national anthem, the flag and all they represented.

But the people did not get the chance. They had beer fooled. The inevitable result, if this mistake is repeated, will be a lessening of respect for the one musical selection Lnai should be a symbol for the best there is in patriotism.

FESTIVE FORT WAYNE.

Up in Fort Wayne where they pride themselves on their progressiveness, feminism has uttered its very last word in the S. C. B., the society for the coercion of bachelors According to the secretary, Miss Penelope Pipp, the object of the organization is for putting into active use the historic prerogative which leap year confers upon the sex. The Fort Wayne Society for the Coercion of Bachelors the mystic letters signify, and every one of the fair coercers has pledged herself to propose marriage to the man of her choice before the year 1916 ends If the proposal ia rejected, the recalcitrant, man will be put upon an "unfair" list. He will be blacklisted. He will be boycotted. He will be punished if It proves feasible, by expulsion from his clubs.

On the other hand, It is proposed to reward the properly submissive with an appropriate decoration—presumably a ring of platinum, gold or brass, to be worn through the septum of the nose. Furthermore, branches of the S. C. B. are to be established in all parts of the United States. Already the current leap ye2.r is more than half gone and if the society Is to accomplish its purpose it will have to hustle.

There is little need for such an organization here in Terre Haute. Leap years means nothing here. Terre Haute maidens need no coercive measures to inspire due appreciation of their charms. The sole trouble here, according to persons who are posted on such matters, is that the available supply falls far below the demand, and it is said that Terre Haute's census of spinster ladies is the lowest in the state.

Let it not be understood that spinsters are undesirable. In fact, they comprise an admirable portion of the population, wherever found. And they seldom, if ever, participate in any such coercion. Still if such dractlc measure is needed in Fort Wayne who's to gainsay it?

A fashion page hint announces that whiskers are coming back. It's no news —they come back every morning and have to be shaved away again.

Before we have time to practice on the name of the latest French town captured the French troops move right ahead and capture another.

Rear Admiral Peary wil! not attempt to secure that Maine senatorship. The bergs and floes of Pine Tree politics staggered his coura&e.

The battle of the Somme will have to show amazing powers of endurance to last as long as the oattle of Verdun has already lasted.

Kaiser William would like to go where the fighting is fieroest as soon as he can look about and determine just where that point is.

Give Carranza credit for having a few sober second thoughts hidden behind that ambush of whiskers.

Librarian Mrs. Hughes read the list of her Assistants for the main and branch libraries, all of which were approved of by the board. The list is as follows: Grace E. Davis, first assistant Florence Crawford, 'Mary C. Dodsoh, Emile Katzenbafch and Octavia Eichelberger, half time. Minnie A. Conners was retained as head of the children's room with Rena A. Clark as first assistant. Clementine Dorsey was appointed for Montrose branch Mary Phillips, Garfield branch Cora Katzenbach, Deming, and Addie L. Sparks, Greenwood. Ruth Adamson was allowed leave of absence. The substitutes for the year are Maud Harkness, Mary, Fishback, Sarah Newland, Mary Anderson and Edith JepEon. Miss Ruth Jones will leave for school.

New Books Ordered.

Mrs. Hughes -submitted a list of new books which the board approved of and moved to purchase at a total price of about $2,300 The first lot includes the supplementary reading books to be used in the city schools with the literature course. There will be about 3,550 of these books, at a cost of $1,300 and about $1,000 Will be expended for additional miscellaneous books for the main and branch libraries.

In the report of the work done at the library during the month of June by Mrs. Hughes it was shown that on June 1, 22,930 persons held register cards. The new borrowers during June were 85, making a total of 23,015 patrons of the library. The total number of books distributed during the past year was 17,783, while that of year before last was 19.001. The deficit for the year just ended being 1.218, due largely to the fact that there is no summer school this year for the Trade school children.

SAYRE A THEIR CHILDREX, FRAXCIS AND KMOAXOR.

Pre,3?dent Wilson points with pride to these briarht grandchildren of his, who are the children of bis daughter, Jessie, and her husband, Francis Bowes Sayru.

Mimi nodded. She Was beginning to hold this, assured young woman in both fear and admiration. When the servant disappeared, Mona went over the final details of her contemplated denouement with Mary, rehearsing the latter until convinced there could be no mistake.

Promptly at 2 o'clock, Mimi strolled to one of the park benches overlooking the main driveway with Runkle— a stockily built, florid-faced man, with small, crafty eyes, which surveyed the maid's trim appearance speculatively. "You say that this Mrs. Douglas is young and pretty—and rich?" Hp purred at the last word as the servant nodded vigorously. "There is no doubt that Mimi broke off her sentence. A couple were strolling down the path, engaged in an angry dialogue. It was Mary and Carlton. As they reached the bench c^i which Mimi and her companion were sitting, Mary suddenly broke away from Carlton in a torrent of weeping denunciation. "You are tired of me! You are throwing me over for her! I know what is in your heart! You shall regret it soon—very soon!" With that she tried to make a scornful toss of her angry head, Mary staggered across to an empty bench. Carlton Watched her for a moment in a cynical silence, and lighted a cigarette. "Perhaps it is better to have it over with!" he called after her, lifting his hat with a flourish. "At any rate, you know the truth' now!" Without a backward glance, he strolled back down the path, leaving the weeping girl alone on the bench. For a moment Mary sobbed convulsively, and then lifted her 'head—to discover that she was alone, and that Carlton had disappeared. She rose to her feet, glanced wildly about her, and hesitatingly walked to the lake. Apparently she was about to throw herself into the water. Runkle, with a muttered oath, sprang across and grasped her arm. "None of that, young woman!" he snapped as Mary glared at him. "It he has thrown you over, there are far better ways of revenge than that!"

Mary stared at him, as though not comprehending, while Mimi hovered discreetly in the background. At that moment the hpnk of an automobile horn sounded from the drive-way and the voice of Reginald Wentworth called across to Runkle. "If you will wait here a moment," the latter said to Mary, "I should like to talk to you. And I think a little interview might .]pe of profit to both of us!"

Mary glanced quickly at Wentworth, who was watching the scene curiously from the car, and dropped back on her bench, indicating that she would wait. The opportune arrival of Wentworth was a real piece of luck. She was confident that her spectacular parting from Carlton, and consequent desperation at his desertion had effectually blinded Runkle—and had given her a logical approach into the other's confidence. If she could deceive Wentworth as well, half of her battle would be won. She stole a glance at Mimi, who was acting her role of curious servant girl to perfection. A moment later she saw Runkle's stocky form leave Wentworth's car. Evidently the two men had reached a decision in regard to her.

Their marriage occurred three years ain the white house. Sayre is secretary to President Garfield, of Williams college, Williamstown, Mass.

THE FANGS OF THE TATTLER

STORY NO. 11—Continued. Early in the following week she considered her preparations far enough advanced to proceed safely with the next step in her program. She called Mimi into their sitting room, and instructed the maid to make an appointment with the man, Runkle, for the park that afternoon at 2 o'clock. "Hold him there until Miss Hartley arrives with Mr. Carlton," directed Mona. "Give him any excuse necessary. Tell him that you see a Way by which you can make capital out of my supposed indiscretions—anything to keep him occupied until Miss Hartley is ready."

"Do you know Mrs. Steven Douglas?" began Runkle. Mary simulated a look of deep bitterness. "Know her?" she snapped. "She the creature who has stolen my sweetheart from me! If it hadn't been for her, nothing would ha.v6 ever come between Raymond Daniels and me!"

Runkle gave a grunt of satisfaction. "I am Mrs Douglas's confidential companion," continued, Mary viciously. "And I always thought she was the best friend I had in the world until she threw me over for Raymond Daniels!" "Or he threw YOU over for her!" suggested Runkle maliciously.

Mary sprang to her feet with a fresh burst of rage. "The cat! If there was only some way in which I could even up with her, and make her suffer as she has made me!"

...

"I thought Mrs. Douglas was the possessor of a husband," said Runkle reflectively, "or is that just gossip?"

Mary looked at him musingly, ^pd suddenly her eyes snapped with satisfaction.

HOROSCOPE.

-Th« btarw iRclfne, But Do not OoHtrtL" Copyrlglit. 181b, oy tne UcClure

Newspaper Syndicate).

Sunday, July 9, 1916.

This, is not a fortunate day, «but the* evening is made lucky by the benefio aspect of Venus. In the earlier hours, Uranus, Neptune and Jupiter are all adverse.

When this government of the stars prevails, it i* held that the human mind is susceptible to sophistries of every sort. False prophets and strange teachers will gain credence more easily than at other times. Many of these will arise in the next few years, it is prophesied.

Owing to this forecast, the seers warn the Catholic church as Well as those of protesta'i.- faith that exponents of occult philosophies and mystic faiths will onise a falling off in city congregations.

As the evil aspect of Uranus is believed to encourage soepticism, irritibility, and misunderstanding, clergymen may fl"d conditions today rather difficult.

The evening is a most auspicious time for wooing. Romance should be especially lucky, but new acquaintances should he distrusted.

Mental disturbances of all sorts are supposed to increase, owing to the malign power of Uranus. Stress is laid on the necessity of practicing the severest self contro.. Increase of insanity is indicated ,n an alarming degree.

Danger of personal injury or illness is foreseen for the king of Belgium, who should guard his health toward the end of next month.-

Comparison of the horoscopes of the queen of Holland and the emperor of Germany reveals sinister possibilities for the queen and her realm.

Women come under a rule this month which indicates thru they will organize for civic work that protects the public health and teaches domestic •economy to rich as well as the poor.

The death of a woman long before the public is foretold. The same influences that will close the careers of distinguished mfih and give place for young leaders for the dawning era operates among women, astrologers maintain.

Persons whose birthdate il is should not speculate or risk their money, as losses are forecast..

Children born in this day probably will be very clever, but generous to excess. They should be taught the value of money.
