Chicago, March 14.—Conp-essman
Champ Clark of Missouri, the com-
ing speaker of the national nouse of
representatives, today amended the
famous saying of Horace Greeley:
an* Bret Wpwt' ”
'Go West, young man; go West!
and made It read: “Go South, my
boy; go South!"
The Missouri congressman headed
off newspaper men who sought to
ask him questions pertaining to other
matters, and insisted that they first
“learn something” about the South-
land from someone who knows and
wants everyone else to know.
Supplementing his amendment, Mr.
Clark said: "The South Is the place,
and my advice is to go there. You
won't eat as much as you do here in
the7 North, if you do, You’ll die.
Your clothing must be lighter, and
therefore less expensive. You won’t
have to buy fuel to speak of and you
can allow your horses and cattle to
graze out of doors the year around.
'Believe me, the South Is the poor
man's land, and you'll live to see
the day when the South Is going to
he the richest part of the United
States.
Why, say, I know a man who
made *15,000 a year off three acres
of lettuce. Sounds fishy, doesn’t it?
True, though, for I took the pains to
find out. it’s a great’country, boys,
and If you want a good tip, follow my
advice. That is, go early to the
Southland and grow up with its
progress.”
If anyone doubts that Congressman
Clark would make a good Democratic
candidate for president at the next
election they hatfe his own word for
It. given today. He ’’admitted'' that
he would make a good candidate,
saying: "Well, the Democratic party
might go further and fare worse—
and I think It will.”
The next speaker of the national
house discussed any and all other
subjects put to him except the Lori-
mer vote and woman suffrage, of the
latter of which he said:
“I know when to let well enough
alone, and I'm going to keep still.”
He prophesied victory for the reci-
procity measure, and s*Ul of the
Tariff: "We can get by Mr. Taft
with a few schedules, we hope, where
tfe never could get past with a whole
bill.”
Mr. Clark Intimated that if Repub-
licans In thfe next house did not like
committee appointments they ,could
go hang, for all the good it would do
them. Only he said it this way:
"Those who don’t like the appoint-
ments can take advantage of the
great American privilege of ‘cussin.’ ”
Congressman Clark lectured tp-
night at a local church. He Insisted
on calling It a lecture, saying: "A
speech is where you talk for noth-
ing; you get paid for a lecture.”
Get Some of Tlat
Delicious Ham ?
If,you have not then you cannot realize what a
treat you are missing. We have reference to that Mor-
ris & Co’s Supreme Brand. It’s the ham that makes
the other; packers and retailers envious. Its taste is right
and lingers. '

All of this dhows the absurdity of
the argument of those who desire to j
see in the mobilization of the Ame.ri- 1

our internal affairs.
Mr. Limantour himself has stated j
that the sending of these troops to the

has great weight coming from a man
of such calm judgment and sensitive- |

The determination of the United

There is no doubt that the movement

The. United States has Just given us
a lesson, which, while it is terrifying,
we should profit by. In five days they
are able to put an army on our front-
ier and two Squadrons on our coasts,
while we are unable to oppose them
with a single boat nor are we able to
mobilize a number of soldiers equal
to theirs or even Inferior. It behooves
us therefore, to work now to put our-
selves in a condition of being able to
counteract, to a degree, the danger to
which we are exposed and this can
only be accomplished by fortifying
the coasts and by having an army
which, while not so large as that of
the Yankee, Is at least well disciplined
and well instructed, and which oan
serve as a basis for an organization
which could be used In war. for
which there would be no lack of vol-

It behooves us to have everything
necessary to produce, without great
effort, the armament and munitions
necessary for some hundreds of
thousands of men for a long cam-
paign, without having to ask foreign
nations for a single grain of powder,
a single cartridge or a single rifle.

MEXICAN PRESS COMMENT

The following is local press comment
on the 'mobilization of. 20,000 Ameri-

Tn reality, the press and the people
who see in this act a movement to-

ering fancy designs on thin air because
even the least informed in Internation-
al procedure know that Interventions
are not made on the spur of the

through the sieve of diplomatic nego-

can intervention even the appearance

had received It from him and handed
it to Senator Tillman, who had in turn
handed It to some other senator wh”
desired to see It.
“I very readily told Senator Cum-
mins that I would make the affidavit
and Saturday afternoon Senator Bo-
i rah told me he had received a tele-
gram from Senator Cummins asking
me to prepare and send the affidavit
at once.
“I prepared it and delivered It t■'
Senator Borah to be sent to Senator
Cummins. It did not take five min-
utes to prepare it and the statement
that I was "at#work on a statement
is little less than ridiculous.”
The senator went on to say that af-
ter he had given the affidavit to Mr.
P.orah he saw for the first time a news
dispatch that a subpoena had bet n
issued for him in Springfield, 111., ami
on Sunday he sent a telegram to Sen-
ator Cummins reading:
“I received your message through
Senator Borah yesterday afternoon
ar.d promptly prepared the affidavit
which I delivered to him for transmit
sion to you. Later in the afternoon I
read a statement that the state’s at-
torney of Sangamon county had pr.
cured a subpoena and Ueuccs tecum
for me, and if that is true. I desii’
you to return my affidavit to me at
once and under no circumstances will
I consent for the prosecuting attorn
at Springfield to have it.
“Of course, he perfectly understood
that Illinois could not issue a st'!
poena for persons outside of her ju-
risdiction and therefore the applica-
tion for it, if made was a contempti-
ble piece of petty politics. If the <lis-
trict attorney there had honestly ib-
sired my presence he could have se -
cured it by a simple and courteous
request.”
