We Watch and Wait When two friends cannot agree, they may call in a third who seeks to keep them under selfcontrol long enough to discuss the cause of war with deliberation and candor. The third friend is a mediator. He is not an arbitrator. He is not an umpire. He does not decide the quarrel. He merely uses the offices of a friend to have the cpntending parties come to an agreement. General Huerta and the United States had a falling out. They quarreled. It was plainly seen they could come to no agreement. Consequently representatives from Argentina, Brazil and Chile were called in to serve as mediators. These diplomats will decide nothing. They will

simply act as the chairmen of the meetings, while the disagreeing parties talk it over. But who are the disagreeing parties ? That is one of the questions that is worrying our department of state. President Wilson would include only Huerta and the government. The mediators themselves would include Carranza. Carranza would not have himself included. And there are those who agree with Senators Lodge and Root that the trouble involves the whole of Mexico and that we cannot arrive at any settlement until we come to terms with all. At the same time, another question buzzes about. Have we been at war? President Wilson believes not. Secretary Bryan hopes not. But there are others who profess an inability to see how an armed battle in which lives are lost by both sides can be anything but war. And there are many others who demand that if this be not war, we should proceed thereto and that speedily. These, of course, believe the President has not gone far enough. There are others who believe he has gone too far. Still another group is perfectly satisfied with the President's handling of the case and is content to trust in his judgment. Whether the mediators can mediate when they cannot decide who the hostile parties are, whether mediation will mean a cessation of or beginning of war, time alone can tell. Until the clouds roll away, the rank and file of us will be compelled to adopt the President's policy of "watchful waiting."

ANGLERS EAT BAKED TROUT

TELL YARNS Of STREAM

Whether Wayne county has any fishermen cannot be vouched for, but conclusive proof was furniBhed last night that the county can furnish a big delegation of fish eaters. There were more than 200 of them, the biggest number in the history of the Wayne County Fish and Game Protective association at the annual banquet in the Odd Fellows hall last night. The big body of men, more than half of them members of the association, sat down at the county's biggest fish banquet and were allowed to eat until every one had his fill of baked trout. Besides the trout there were mashed and baked potatoes, hot buns, salad, cold tongue and meats, coffee and cigars.

State Fish and Game Commissioner Miles was unable to attend the banquet but one of his field deputies, J. J. Bravy, of Anderson, was present and gave an interesting talk. There were fewer speakers than usual, and the speeches were . kept short, Chairman Handley keeping things moving rapidly along. Talks Kept Short. "When you've got a thing to say Don't meander 'round all day; Shed your coat and go to work, Hand it to 'em with a jerk; When you've got it out at last Drive a nail and hold it fast." With the foregoing verse, Mr. Handley warned the speakers in advance that talks were to be short and to the point.

George Deuker, president of the association, gave a short review of the work of the association, and expressed his gratitude that thirty members from Milton and Cambridge City attended the banquet. Mr. Deuker explained that the as-

sociatlon was formed five years ago to replenish the empty streams of the county and that in the first three years, more than 100,000 small mouth black bass had been put out from the hatcheries. In 1913, the flood washed out the ponds and the parent bass were lost. However eighteen parent bass have been placed In the new hatcheries and eighteen more are wanted. The president also desires to see the membership increased from 150 to 600. Although Judge Abbott was lost without the presence of his fishing partner Judge Fox, he told stories on the Judge which drew the applause of the banqueters. "Judge Fox Is no fisherman" at all. He has thought he Is since he brought he is since he brought home that little string of minnows and his daughter said, 'I guess fish don't go in schools any more. I see you have broken up the Infant class.' But you still can't convince the judge that he never caught a real fish in his life." J. J. Bravy, of Anderson, for thirteen years a deputy of the fish and game department of the state complimented the Wayne county association on the fish ponds and hatcheries which have just been completed. "The state will help you in every way?" Mr. Bravy said. "From time to time, if you want him, a state agent will come here to instruct you in the

care and feeding of the young." Dr. W. W. Zimmerman was called on to make a speech on "The Peaceful Life vs. Political Strife.- However, the former mayor asserted that peaceful life and political life were the same to him. "You may hear from me again," declared "Doc." Earl Crawford, of Milton, "came back" on his subject. "Moose Hunting In Wayne County," with several good stories. Paul Ross, of the Richmond Gun club, proposed a merger of the two organizations in order that permanent headquarters can be kept by both the fish and game association and the gun club. He also added that free arms and ammunition can be secured from the government and a supply will be brought here If wanted. Dr. C. S. Bond who has fished in practically all the popular fishing places of the country, declared that there is a personality in fishing. Edward Neff told of mackeral fishing in Florida where be spends a

month or two every year.

When O. O. Smith proposed a law against fishing in spawning season.

and asked for a vote on it, the body was unanimous for protecting bass in

this way. Mr. Smith stated that at

times, he knew Richmond men had caught bass off the nests, which is

the quickest way to exterminate fish

of any kind.

Prof. Thompson, of Milton, William Miller and O. H. Beeson ware among

those who represented the western part of the county on the program.
