1 Dont Invest Your Money in "Blue Sky 9) With the advent of prosperity there spring up "blue sky" peddlers with elusive stock schemes, including promise of great returns. Their advent naturally has a harmful effect upon legitimate enterprises and it is somewhat hard to weed them out. The following editorial from The Journal of October 20th should be heeded: UK WAKE A A whole the country Is ex travagantly proaporouB.

It ia a fine time for fat people who look like good eating to, beware. If they don't look out the blue sky stock peddler will get them and no far as they are concerned prosperity will have become a mournful memory instead of a bright and fragrant reality. The sedate Saturday Evening Post sounds a "Stop, look, listen" warning ln its current issue. "Tho T)lue sky artist is getting active," tt says, "look out for him." Before investing in stock propositions, consult a reliable banker, bond house or other person in whom you have confidence.

measures only operate upon the sur face of the problem, and do not con duct It any nearer a solution. Presi dent Wilson recognizes this truth. Every one conversant with Mexico recognizes it also.

"There hav been, it is true, disorders along the frontier. There have been numerous sporadic instances of crime and violence In Mexico. But tjar In mind, my friends, that the responsibility for these border disturbances is not all on one side. Frontier Spirit Z. Shown.

"I know something of these border conditions. The Rio Grande is over 2500 miles from New York or Washington, and it ia 1200 or 1300 miles from the Mexican capital. Most of the region Is sparsely settled. In lijct, a great part of it is a desert. The men between whom these collis ions have occurred, have been men on both sides with whom fiehtlnir is a pastime and firearms are toys to play with.

"These outbreaks are the ebull- tions of a frontier spirit They are unfortunate. They must be repressed. But they do not involve any problem of national honor. They are mat ters of more efficient border policing. Disturbances Are Inevitable.

When the feudists of the Kentucky mountains, or in the passes of West Virginia, have one of their periodi cal outbreaks, we do not feel that American civil liberty is breaking down. When a citizen mob executed 30 or 40 Italians, in an outbreak against an Italian secret society, as happened ln Louisiana some years ago, we do not look upon it as In volving the collapse of our institu tions, or even a war with Italy, duch affairs are unfortunate. They are to be dealt with promptly and gravely, but not hysterically. They are the Inevitable distempers that accompany the evolution of human society. Merely Trying for An Issue.

And when you hear Mr. Hurhes talk about Mexico, or when you read Mr. Boosevelt violent tirade against presiaent wuson about Mexico, re- memuer tnat neither Mr. Boose velt so Mr. Hughe, really know.

much about Mexico, and neither of them really means wnat ne says. They sr. only talking. They are merely trying to supply their hard-pressed and impoverished party with some- tiling in the shape of an Issue. "They don't like President Wilson.

They don't like his party. They want office and all Its emoluments. They haven't anything real to urge against Wilson in the shape of demonstrable shortcoming or mistake. So they are fashioning these Jack-o-lantern issues of Belgium and Mexico to see if they can't excite you and confuse you, and Ip some way trick and cajole you into voting against your interest and in the Bervice of their personal interest." CORN HUSKERS DOWN AGGIES, SCORE 17 TO 7 (Continued From Page One.) Xebraskans took further advantage of the inability of the Aggies to com plcte forward passes and their own superior punting, and made a. place kick from the 28 yard line, Caley "hold lng the ball while Corey lifted It squarely between the goal posts for the extra three points.

The Aggies lost none of their fight, but some of their steam after the place kick. There was continual changing of players from both sides in the second half. In the last quarter Dobson intercepted a forward pass from Anderson and made SO yards before he was downed. Caley stepped around the Aggies' left end for 20 more yards and a touchdown, Corey goallng. When Caley fumbled Anderson's punt near the end of the game, Hubbard picked it up and placed it on Nebraska's one yard line before he was downed by Caley.

Coach Pi pal rushed Rose to the front, and Rose made half a yard. Another signal was flashed for Rose, but he fumbled the ball, it was recovered by Nebraska and Gardner pvnted to safety. 1 The Nebraska society was host st a banquet to the victorious football team last night at the Multnomah hotel, following which a dance was held.

"The Republican party," said he, "has been definitely and finally brought by theft and fraud under the control of the bosses. No self lespecting man should stay with the Republican party under these conditions." "Has the Republican party changed its spots? Colonel Roosevelt does not intimate this. Is there a new set of men in control? The Colonel knows that the Old Guard are as effectually in control of the party as they ever were.

What did Colonel Roosevelt mean when he said in 1912: "I will continue the fight if I stand entirely alone?" What did he mean when he said in 1913: "To my mind the whole attitude of those at present responsible for the leadership and management of the Republican party shows that it would be folly to try to combine with them." As Eater of Words. "If that were tre, and the colonel said it was, how has he the effrontery to stand out on a public platform and advise the Progressives to combina with the Republicans? "The colonel is not only a mighty hunter, he is apparently a mighty at-er. He is an eater of words, with a particular relish for hts own words as a steady diet. He reminds me of Lie famous anaconda, which began by devouring its tail, until it finally disappeared, expiring by self-engorgement. The prodigous output of vituperation now issuing from him does materially alter the Roosevelt score.

The amount of prior vituperation which he consumed equalized the latest amount which he set in circulation. Will Eat Words Again. "It has taken him a couple of years to eat his words about the iniquity of the Republican party. I. think it will take him about three weeks to eat his words about "the -moral stain' of the present administration, when the American nation will have attested at the polls their confidence in President Wilson, and their abiding gratitude for his courageous and enlightened statesmanship.

In those times of unparalleled difficulty and danger. "The Rrogressives throughout the country are turning to President Wilton because he Is in truth the foremost of Progressives. Her has steadily appointed men of progressive ideals to high and important office. Amid all the distractions of an unpre cedented war, he has not lost sight of internal reorganization. Wilson Has Brought Prosperity.

"His wise and progressive legislation has brought about an unparalleled prosperity throughout the nation, a prosperity falsely attributed to the war in Europe, but reality due to such enlightened progressive measures as the currency act, tha federal trade commission law, the rural credits law. and the agricultural education act, to mention only a few of the achievements of the Wilson administration. "He has left the sodden and reac tionary Republican opposition nothing out of which to construct a genuine issue. The campaign of Hughes has already collapsed. His speeches are a source of dismay to his managers and of apology by his friends.

His treat ment of the Progressives in all his speeches shows that Hughes wants only their votes and nothing of their aims or ideals.

"The Republican campaign fs now in full cry. The air is filled with hissings, shrieks, ranting and rav lugs. Every detonating humbug arid political- calliope in the country has been drafted into service, and the noise' is something awful. But It's only notse after all.

Partisanship Z. Shallow. "It is not true, as Hughes says, and all the little clacquers who fester around him, that Wilson has held us up to derision and contempt. Of course one cannot expect of a dyed-in-the- wool Republican either candid thought or disinterested judgment on any po- lltlcal subject. The Republican is like the old woman in the storv.

who thanked God she wasn't open to con- viction. It is the business of the Re- publican' to view with alarm, and to denounce 'all Democrats. I should think, however, that men of the Intel- lectual power of Taft or Root or Wick- ersham, as they grow older, would see the shallowness and banality of com pressing their thought always into a partisan Republican mold. All Follow the Caucus.

Hughes Weakest of AIL "Hughes, while the president for vacillation and weak ness has enlarged the boundaries of both vacillation and 1 iiM and to weakness, cowardice. He says he believes ln firmness.

But it Is a shaky firmness that he believes in. He says that anything Wilson has done is wrong, and he declines, in the face of the most Insistent Questioning, to mention a single thing that he would have done differently.
