Now anil November.
The Scn's efforts to make elenr to
all Americans the distinction between
patriotic loynlty and political nlloal
ance receive powerful ii-.lMiii!re from
Mr. Huoiiks. Ho states the ease this
way In his admirable letter to the
Progressive National Committee wel
coming thnt party's cooperation In
the common rnue:
"Unqur-Mlonlne. loyal nd patriotic
tiprtort of the oovprnment tf oiip thine;
approval of thei fattious rntirs which
the Admlnltratlon has followd l rpilto
another."
The difference heiween the call of
duty now and the call of duty In No
vember could not he epreed more
forcibly In so few words.
It 1 Important for the nation's
Itood that this difference -houhl ho
understood by ovcr.vhody from the
very beginning of the campaign.
It Is nil the more Important because
the original" purpose to urge Mr. Wit
bon for reelection on the ground thnt
"he has kept the country out of war"
has probably been stultified by unex
pected events. Instead of keeping the
rountry out of war he hn hroughrHho
country to the edge of war; and that
unnecessarily, nnd fatuously, as Mr.
HuniiEs puts It.
Under uch clreunMnnro those
promoter ot Mr. U'n min s political
fortunes who were reckoning largely.
If not chiefly, on the keynote pro
nounced nt St. Louis by ( inventor
GtTNN nnd Senator .Ujir.s will be
compelled to depend upon another line
of promotion.
At least one leading newspaper sup
porting Mr. Wii.son has already indi
cated tho nlterniithe by a miscalcu
lated attempt to put the brand of "so.
dltlon" upon utterances that criticise
the President's past Mexican policy
or exhibit III- responsddllty for the
present situation.
If thnt view of "sedition" Is sound
nil the new simpers supporting Mr.
Hughes n the man to get the country
out of the moss in which Mr. Wilson
nnd his policies have Involved It : Mr, I
Hl'OHKS himself, by the deliverance
quoted above; two ex-Pl'Pldents nf i
the United States, one of them
Colonel Hooskvixt, who N tn confer
to-night with Mr, Hlt.iieh on the
ways and means for the defeat nf
Mr. Wilson nt the polls nn election
day not to speak nf n considerable
majority of the citizens of the repub
He will be In n "seditious" attitude
toward tho Government from now
until Novemher.
Is It a fact thnt Wonnnow Wii.son'r
fatuous course during the pnt three
years nnd a hnlf, having brought the
nation to nn unnecessary war, iloslg.
nates him n! the proper person to
carry on the Government for four
years more nnd precludes nny change
In Administration nn the principle of
the two horses nnd the stream? What
topsy-turvy logic!
Mexico ai a Campaigning Country.
A render of Tiir. Srv nsk what
the most favorable season for cam
paigning In Mexico i. It Is not easy
to answer such n general question,
because Mexico extends through sev
enteen degrees of latitude, and the
rllmatP, nccnrdlng to locality nnd al
titude. Is tropical, sub-tropical, or
temperate.
If there should ho n war with Mex
ico our troops soonpr or IntPr would
have to operate, It may bp assumed,
In every part of the country, Includ
ing the two coastal zones down to the
Isthmus of Tehuantepec, and even In
Chiapas, Campeche and Yucatan,
most of which region comes under
the hpad of tlerras callentes nr hot
lands, Here, the heat In what we
call our summer season Is Intense,
nnd the rnlnfall. except In Yucatan,
1h heavy. Sultry conditions prevail In
the wet ser.son, nnd nt Vera Cruz
on the Gulf of Mexico, ami at (iuay
mas and Acipubit on the Pacific
const, the shade temperature some
times rl-o tn ieg rees. While
tho rllimitf. s r.iied debilitating mid
unhealthy for Northerners, It will be
remembered that IVnston's brigade

Iiur this In mind, the rountry north
of latitude '.'s; nmy be described as
temperate. High up In the moun
tains of Chihuahua and Sonora the
heat l seldom e.resse, and the
nights even In summer ate rool. If
not cold. It Is dllTei'eut In the desert
of the three northern States. There
the heat In duly nnd August, after
the llrt freshness of the early morn
ing has passed, Is almost Insupport
able: yet a blanket may be needed
nt night, for nfter sunset the tem
perature often declines rapidly.
South of latitude CS Is the tlnrrn
templndn, or sub-tropical r.one, com
prising parts nf Conhiilla, Chihuahua,
Nnevo !,oon. San l.uls I'otosl half of
Tamaiillpas, western Vera Cruz (the
Stnte), nnd districts In Oaxara, Chi
apas, Guerrero. .Inllsco, Slnnloa and
Soiiorn. In the highlands, the alti
tude of which here and there rises
to nearly 0,000 feet, the night tem
peratures are refrpshlng; thp days
arp hot, but not unbearably so If ex
cesses are nvolded.
Extending south from Iiurnngo to
the city of Mexico, the great tnble
land, the tlerrn frln (altitudes from
.ViOO to S.'JOO feet). Is salubrious at
all times nf the year, and the climate
Is especially delightful In our sum
mer months, although changes of
teinppraturp nrp somptlmcs abrupt
and nt night thp lungs hne to be
guarded. Kven the rains on the ta
blelnnd and south of latitude US
there Is n rnlny season from Mny to
October have seldom anything of
the deluge character. They may In
frequent, hut they nre generally light.
Klsewhere than on the tableland the
best campaigning season Is the dry.
October to May: but. to sum up. it
may be said that except In the tier
ras callentes outdoors Mexico should
hne no climatic terrors for Ameri
can troops operating under rules of
sanitation laid down by a competent
Medical Corps.

The Supply of War Ilnrset.
The last Federal census estlmnted
the number of horses nnd mules In
the United States nt more than
JS.fMWXHi, When It is remembered
that the Entente Allies sppnt nearly
SI 00,000,1 M hi In one yenr In this
country for mounts fnr cavalry nnd
nnlmnls to draw their supply trnlns
and nrtlllery there mny he ground for
the fear of n scarcity of horses to
equip our own armies.
Thn motor has done much to dis
pense with tho horse's nld in bring
ing up supplies nnd the nlrhlps to
displace mounted scouting parties, yet
there Is need for cnvalry, nnd the
hore still hns n place In the light
artillery bntterles, To meet this de
mand Is one nf the problems of the
Government. It cannot be met In
the snme way It wns tn the civil war,
when horses were plentiful nnfl when
the volunteer cavalryman rode his
own steed taken from the plough, thn
family cnrrlnge or tho racing stnhle,
In spite of the loss on the hnttletlelds,
In ihe .Southern swnmps nnd from the
effects of n climate to which Northern
nnlmnls were not Inured, the United
Suites nt the end nf the war wns one
nf the greatest horse owners nmnng
the nations.
The decrease In Ihe recent produc
tion of horses wns brought about hy
the Increasing use nf tho motor car.
Thn scarcity was augmented by for
eign buying for use llrst In the liner
war nnd then In the present war. To
counteract this, legislation wns roc
omtnended lust year tn restrict the
exportation, and In April h hill was
Introduced by Senator Pittman of
Nevada nnd neptesentntlve Rrn.t.T

the Improvement of the stock of me-

The Present Whereabouts nf
the
Short and t'aly Word.
A spirhed nnd, we hope, greatly
exaggerated account of an episode at
the mortuary meeting of the Pro
gressive National Committee appears
In a Chicago despatch to the New
York H'oiM. Mr. llAtMimncr. Couiy
of New York had nominated Mr.
1
Victim Mt'imorK of Kansas for l'res
blent nf the United Suites, to till the
! vacancy on the Progressive ticket
(culised by Colonel Hoosfaki.t'h patri
otic declination. Considerable ap
plause followed. Then this N what
occurred, according to the H'mM's
eiieresrwiniliMit :
"Hatmo.no HoniNs of Chicago wan
discovered oo his feet, excitedly calling
for roimiiion
,. . , In
' I would like) to Ask Mr. Coi.rt,",,
he aalrt, whether .he. has any assurance
that Mr, Mi'bdock will accept the noml- j
niltlon
Voi'nT retorted that he hart not. but
thnt on th other hand he hnd no us
suranee that he would not.
" 'Well,' said the Chlcauean. "the lae t
talk I had with Mr. Mi-rpock he said
ho would under no elrctimtitices acenpt
th nomination. Now, I want to aek
Mr foLtiT If he ha not a.ready agreed
to .support Wilson-.
"'No, I have not," roared Colut, 'and
Mr ItoniNs knows I have not."
" 'I believe you have, nevertheless,
said HobINR. !
"Then )ou He, If you say that 1
hae. was CoLRT'e retort
"'I still p-ay so.'" ihot back Knniss.
"Then you are a liar!' Coi.st
eh.iuted.
"Th meeting was In an uproar by
this time. Pin Bill Klinn of Pennsyl
vania took the floor with a rush.
" "I demand order,1 he shouted. 'I
believe Mr. Coliit shou'.d he ejecleditn May. 1 sf.fi He Is now in Oregon
..,, m it. wouldn't rail me ai'nd In want, and his granddaughter
liar and get away with It. I move to
exclude him from the hall.'
'I think both of them should be
excluded,' put In HENnr F. Cochems of
Wisconsin. 'On waa bad as the
other. "
From tho point of view of parlia
mentary decorum we nre bound to
say that the neutral and tmpnrtlul
attitude of Mr. Coriirxis Is far more
admirable than the deflnnt -partisanship
of Hlg Pill Flins. We hope,
however, thnt both Mr. n.MNimiiHiK
Cni.nv nnd Mr. Kaymonp Uobins worn
misunderstood by tho reporters pres.
ent at the meeting.
It will be obvious tn the meanest
understanding that If unfortunately
the foregoing ls"nn nccurnte record
nf the proceedings, Mr. Cni.nv and
Mr. ItoittNS could not both hnve been
Intrenched In truth; nnd thnt Ana
mas stands battling nt Armngeildon,
wheirce nenrly all but him have lied.
Trains and the Man.
The commuter's greatest day of the
year Is nt hand. All through the de
pression of autumn, the pnng of win-
4er nnd the Irritant of spring ho has
looked fonvnrd to tho balm of the
summer time tnble. Hummer mny
not come, hut the advent of the sum
mer time tnble Is certain and consti
tutes the most consoling moment of
the commuter's ordered cycle.
Ono fine morning nt the close of
June he Is not to be seen hustling
down the street to cntch tho 7:27.
Instead he sleeps a golden half hour
later and saunters complacently down
to hoard the 7:52. The 7:2" makes
nine stops on the wny to the city;
the 7r.'i2 (a hummer) halts twice.
Although leaving twenty-live minutes
Inter, It gets In only five minutes be
hind the first train. You're In the
nftlce nt prnctlcnlly the snme time.
Shows what they enn do when they
really try, eh?
Yes, nnd that's not all. At night
there's nn express out thnt makes hut
one stop I Tho only trouble Is thnt
It lenves rather enrly 1:44 or some
thing like thnt. They had n greut
driver In tho enh nf thnt trnln Inst
summer; It did you good to-see how-
he went through way places without
slowing down n hit, nlmnst ns If he
had n grudge against them. It Is not
to be wondered at If he had. Prob
ably he had had tn stop nt them nil
every trip In months gone hy. The
commuter knows how resentful he
must have felt toward them. Who
founded some of those wayside towns,
anyway?
Well, If the 4:44 Is too early to he
caught most days, there Is n piece of
good fortune for the To ami Fro Mnn
In the fuct Hint the .rc,.ri.'l Is become nn
express, nnd will get him home twenty
minutes earlier than hitherto. Tw en
ty minutes gained nt night nnd twenty-live
In the morning; that's three
quarters of nn hour.
Why, every commuter knows that
the grentest device eontrlvnhle for
daylight saving nlready exists In the
Institution known ns the summer
time table.
