TUESDAY JANUARY 4 1916.
BUILDING ARMORED AUTOS.
Up In Oklahoma the state government has decided to
furnish the officers or the law with armored nutos In
which to give cha"o to bank robbers. It Is high time
fcomethjng Was done to stop bank robberies In that stato
for It Is nothing unusual to see from three to flvo a day.
In the last annlysls a robber Is n murderer and should
bo tun down like a mad dog. When tho day comes that
they ore so regarded and are always run down and cap-
tured tho murder list will decrease much.
The Weather Changeth-
Texas is thankful for tho severe change In tho weather.

tho fallacy of writing about tho weather In Texas.
PRESIDENT WILSON RETURNS TO WASHINGTON.
The facC that the President cut short his honeymoon at
Hot Springs Vn. and returned to Washington to assume
pcrconat supervision of tho proceedings arising from the
loss of tho steamship Persia shows the seriousness of
tlip situation as regarded by tho President. Austria will
have to advance the best of reasons why she should not
beheld to strict nf count for sending the ship to the bot-
tom of tho sea or 'the United States will become Involved
hi tho war. Everyone will watch the Incident with tho
keenest interest.
Sinning and Paying-
It Is not nhvsyB so in the popular judgment hut the
provcrable saying that "Justice though he travel slow or
late Is sure at last Wrong to overtake" Is Inevitably vin-
dicated in Nature's unerring support of its own decrees.

.CONGRESS RESUMES WORK.
Congress resumed work Tuesday and leaders of both
factions agree that the United States is facing n most
delicate situation arising out of the sinking of the Per-
ila ami the interference of neutral commerce by Eng-
land and her allies. Senators and Congressmen Indi-
cate their intention of standing firm for the rights of the
United States and nobody attempts to cover the fact that
a crisis is ahead. The people of the country want the dig-
nity of our nation upheld and' our rights protected but
there Is no demand that we enter the war. On the other
hand It is certain that there Is an antl war sentiment
all over the country.
FACTS TO .THINK ABOUT.

SILENCE.
We havo knocked at the door of the Now Year. Wo
nro peering into the future with unqertaiu eyes. We look
for tho best. Wo expect more. Wo should not think bo
much of ourbelvos at this particular season but think ot
others. .YLove all things we should educate ourselves to
appreciate the value of silence.
It lb a quebtloa whether speech should not have- been
itcnlcd to man when tho human race with all of Its im.
perfections and weaknesses wab get mating over the face
cf tho earth. If we could have had action without words
thia world might bo a better and more peaceful abiding
place. It Is not possible to say how man could get along
without talking but if there had -only bceiv a method
by-Vihlch ho could havo done so it is pretty certain there
would be less discord than now disturbs communities and
Individuals.
In public life it Is talk that deters reform and brings
ridicule on religion tsolfe In private life Jt (.Integrates
familias and creates war on every street corner. The
madness of speech is tenfold more terrible than the tur&e
of liqugr.
We are talking all the time. Vp talk In the pulpit.
in the street cars Ju our doorways and in our homos.
At the beginning uf the new year we should realize that
true siumee is the rest of the mind. It means to pur
mental facltluos what sleep meaus to the body. It Is a
great virtue. It covers folly. It keeps secrets and avoids
disputes. It also presents sin.
The silence often of pure innocence perbuadea where
hf eklng fails - .
To the was wUo has not much of the world's knowledge
sjtaw hj sipctrely golden for silonce in such au instance
in wUHm to the fooL If we could only appreciate tm
-loath. What Goneral Gorgas meant Is bottor expressed
' his own words than In those of the reporter who un-
dertook to gonoraltzo his statement In a single sentence:
'Physicians havo located tho groaler gonorul cause of ill-
health and poverty. The best work that civio and social
irganlzations can do now is to co-operate for better
wages which will bo followed immediately by bettor lly-
'ng conditions and h'ettor health." This comos much noar-
sr tho Jruth tliuu tho reportor statement but it Is not
a "bull's-eye." nevertheless. A eonoral j-nhut In wiiifnK nil
around would not make social conditions any bettor than
they are. If by wages is moant tho money that is ghoii for
work. Hut if poverty is thought of In terms of living
"onilltions. rather than of wages thou undoubtedly It is
tho greatest foe of health. Unfortunately tho remedy la
not so simple as General Gorgas' Blatomont buggests
Dallas News.
In the absence of u chart we will hao to lot the phil-
osophy of the abovo gut by without curnmont. Hut as to
poverty causing disease there is not a shadowpfnloubt
The only question Is will a ralsteinyige decrease pover-
tf n the natural ratio? The average American spends
alt he makos and some spend more. If ho makes $100 ii
month ho will spend 12Q0 a year. If ho makes. j;o a
