LOS ANGELES, Cal, March IL
| The police Of this city have arrested
two men known as J. D. Ward aud
Bud Clayborn, and they say they will
charge them with working fake
horse race game on w, C. Mitchell, a
cattle raiser OF Sprague, Wash by
which Mitchell is said to be out OF
pocket about $4,000,
The alleged fake horse race took
place yesterday on a vacant lot be-
tween Arcadia and Monrovia and il
was so cleverly worked detectives al
lege that Mitchell believed even after
his money was gone, that he had been
the victim Of chance rather than of a
bunco game and refused to give in
formation that would lead to the ar
rest OF the men until after he had
himself been arrested and sweated by
the police.
The men represented to Mitchell
that he was betting on a sure thing,
and got his money before the race
came off. The money has not been
recovered but the police say they
have the men who have it under sur
veillance.

SOCIALISTS ARE
MUCH AROUSED

ASSOCIATED Press Morning Servlce)
HAVANA. October 1S.-The people
of this city are wrought up to fever
heat over the execution of Francisco
Ferrer The unrest which has seized
the old world as the result of SPANS
action in putting to death the distin-
guished educator has spread to the
new. The execution is the topic of
conservation everywhere.
Yesterday a great procession was
held to voice the protest of the Cuban
people against the course which Spain
took in furnishing the man charged
with being implicated in the recent
revolutionary movement Thousands
of people marched in the parade.
One of the direct results of the execu-
ton has been a Cuban boycott against
all Spanish goods. At a great mass
meeting, held yesterday, vote was
passed to boycott Spain in protest
against the manner in which Ferrer
came to his death, and there is every
indication that the boycott will be car
ried out Not since Cuba achieved ner
independence has there been so much
popular feeling shown against Spain as
since the word reached here that Ferrer
had been arrested, tried, convicted and
executed on charge of participating
in revolutionary movement
LONDON, October 1S.-All Europe is
discussing the recent execution of
Francisco Ferrer, convicted of taking
part in the recent revolutionary move
ment in Spain and the socialists are
tanning the smouldering embers into
blaze. Demonstrations are being
held daily in the principal cities of
Europe and considerable disquietude is
felt by the authorities.
Each day brings news of fresh dem
onstrations, engineered by the social
lists, and on all parts of Europe the
socialist leaders are taking advantage
of the execution as an excuse for
socialist propaganda. Socialists are
parading the streets of the capital
cities and are holding mass meetings
Even the rural r1stricts have not es-
capped and incendiary speeches are be-
ing made everywhere.
Not in years mas there been such a
spontaneous protest against the action
of any government as has character
lied the actions of the people of the
principal European countries since first
the news was received that Ferrer had
been put to death.

that the middlemen charged the con- sumers about s56,00O,OO for the milk which you sold to them for s2l, ,7s0,000, and that it is these same middlemen who are warning you so solemnly that, in case you push Up the price of your milk, the consumers will not use 1t in so large quantities! Are not the middlemen putting in two words for themselves to each word they put in for the consumers?
 Suppose you organize, cooperate, push up and keep up the wholesale price )f your milk. Suppose the higher retail price should reduce the consumption by S,O00,OO0 cans a year. Instead of sending lS,000,00 cans, you would send only 15,000,0 0,000 cans, and instead of receiving only Sl.21 per can, you would be able to. command at least sl.50 net per can, because you could prevent surplus, and you could, if you would, com mand Sl.60 per can the year the year round. For your l5,000,000 cans you would net $21,700,000, against the $2l,7S0,0O0 you received in 1908 for lS,000,OO0 cans. Would you not be benefited by sending lj,0QO,000 cans for $2l,700,000 instead of send ing 1S,000,O00 cans for $2l,7S0,OO0
 Such milk as you send to the me- tropolis !s the finest, the best, the cheapest and most nutritious food on earth. The city has added to your productions costs of this food. Let the city pay higher prices for the food. You farmers are not in busi- ness for the purpose of giving high graue food to the city customers at prices that mean a loss to you. If the consumers really san not pay fair price for the milk to you farm CTS who put $26,000,000 a year into it, let the middlemen divide with the consumers the yj6,000,000 which they take out of the consumers for .ue milk. You producers can no longer carry on your $21, 100000 in- come business on your $26,000,000 product. Begin now to "educate" the city middlemen to a full un- derstanding of that important point, and let the middlemen pass the "ed- ucation" on to the city consumers. Organize your Dairyman's League. Go into it, every man of you!

PRODUCERS SHOULD MOVE. From the New York Farmer.

Messieurs Producers of milk, the next move is yours!
 What is the next move?
 It is to prevent the reduction of the retail price of milk in the city to the low notch of past years, to keep it up at least to it's present level, and if possible, to force it higher.
 How can you make the move?
 First, by thorough organization. Develop the Dairyman's League so that you producer S shall be in abso- lute control of the quantity of milk sent to the cities. That will insure to you the power to fix the wholesale price of your product.
 Second, by cordial, systematic, un- questioning, unqualified, enthusiastic cooperation, such as the farmers Of Holland and Denmark practice with so magnificent results financially.
 The middlemen may tell you that in case the retail price is pushed higher, or even kept at its present notch, the consumers will use much less milk than they have used, and thus they will cut down your mar ket in the city. Well? Wouldn't that be a good thing for the produc- CTS? Last year you sent 1S,Oe0,OOO cans of milk to the city and received for it about s1.21 a can, a total of about s21,7S0,000. The milk costs you to about s26,O00,OOO to produce and you in mass came out about s5,000,000 behind on your wears work. Did the city consumption oi 72O, ,OO0,0O0 quarts benefit you ol damage you financially. This ques tion makes no account of the fac
