CONOKESHMAN MARVIN JONES and J. L J'ope of Amanita
were in Hereford a short while Wednesday. The main object of
ffeeir visit was to see if Hereford had not fallen asleep at the switch _

THE Sl'PREME COl'RT itas upheld the Adamson law and a
nation-wide calamity has been postponed until such time as the
brotherhoods shall sec fit to make new ami more tpranuical demand#, i
The Adamson law as an emergency act might have been condoned
but as a law worthy of a permaneut place among the laws of the cinrlanati Authority Tells How to Dry
land, never. i I'M Corn or Callus so it Lifts
Kv«*ry claim to consideration wan f*>rt•*if#*tl by the brother-
hoods when in the face of almost certain war. they pressed tli.-ir
unjust demands for special favors to the best paid labor of the coun-
tiy. Had their demands been refused, they had declared their in-
tention of paralyzing every avenue of the country's business with
absolutely no regard for the disaster it would have brought upon the
country.
When our forefathers declared that all class legislation is wrong
they expressed a fundamental principle of our boasted free govern-
ment. a principle which can not be maintained by the passage of
auch laws as the Adamson law.

IT LOOKS NOW as if the nation has gone a little way further
than the "verge" of war and the diversity of opinion in regard to
the right or wrong of the matter is ijuitc as marked as it has been
since the day when Huerta didn't salute the flag. There is a com-
mon ground, however, upon which all are united the ground of
real heart loyalty to tile government iii whatever erisis it may face.
It is the earnest desire of every true American and a desire not al-
together hopeless—that an honorable means of preserving our neu-
trality may yet be found but that desire is not based upon the pos-
sible alternative of discrediting the nation's executive iii the eyes
of the world and a part of that world already unfriendly to American
principles and institutions—to America herself. A united front
even though it existed only iii theory would have a salutary effect
in disillusionizing any foreign power that might feel that our rights
aa a nation can be trampled upon with impunity. Any show of dis-
cord will be taken as an indication of weakness and might work tin
told injury.
As far as correcting our attitude toward the belligerents by
placing an embargo upon war munitions and food supplies is con-
cerned. the time to have done that is irrevocably past. Had such a
course been pursued from the beginning it is possible the war would
have been ended and it is almost certain that we would have had no
part in it. Prices for all commodities would have remained within
living bounds and the wealth of the Morgans would have increased
leas rapidly, dust now such a course would be humiliating. We
have gone too far it) change our base and not hint remains but to
stand, a united people, for the best and greatest government ever
produced by any people of any a-e or country.

CAPITAL PI'NISHMENT will no longer be legal in Missouri.
The bill has passed the legislature and will be signed l>\ (iov. <ia'-.l
ner. This measure is a sign of the times and goes to show that people
are no longer willing to risk taking the life of an innocent man m
order to be sure that the suilty man does not go free.
Life imprisonment gives the innocent a chance to vindicate
himself ami is punishment sufficient for the guilty.

Thinks Not Wl*e to Bond County
Preaent Time
Much has been said but little done
In regard to trails and highways In
thl* particular community. This talk Is
not local but of general discussion all
over the I'nlted States. Some time
ago Hereford was enthused over the
prospect of getting the (hnrk Trail,
but It seems at this time that we were
not ready to bond the <<ounty sufficient-
ly to produce this trail. < f course many
were disappointed, but this should not
be. for we have a natural highway
right through Hereford, one that In
time will attract fully as much travel
aa any of the present and proposed
