Mexican Herald: While reports
from the various sections of north
ern Mexico have not been very en-.
couraging during the past few days
on account of the extreme dry
weather, and the expectation OF
continued drouth, the better In
formed people expect this to be a
banner year in the crop record OF
northern Mexico. Little confidence
can be placed in the weather antics
of northern Mexico, the dark out
look for little rain being usually a
forerunner of a good season, when
it starts at this time of the year.

of Guanajuato, of which George W.

with the Colima Lumber Company

narrow guage railroad from con-

about twenty-six kilometers. The

Just finishing marketing the crop
OF 1908 and within a week or ten
days it will be in the hands of the

was a medium sized one, somewhat
less than the crop of the year be-

number of bags produced, as no
statistics are available and both
planters and buyers do not give the

the Young Turks did so believe, they
rnust have been possessed of an as
tonishing degree of credulity. Promises
made under such circumstances are
usually made only to be broken at the
first opportunity. and certainly Aodui
Hamid was not a ruler on whose WorG
in such a case any reliance could be

seems rather strange that if the Young
Turks had then so great an advantage
as they seemed to have, they did not
ga farther and compel the sultan to
abdicate then, Or depose him. But
while they had won over a large por-
ton of the national military forces, they
were short of money and the sultan
seems to have kept his hand on the
national purse, as essential in a revo-
luton as an army. But instruction
in large proportions has broken out
again. and the end nobody can fOreSee.
Or more likely there will be no end in
the near future, and internal fighting
and slaughter will go on intermittent
ly for years to come. For While the
so called Young Turks appear to aim
at a better and a progressive and to
some extent a democratic government
it is by no means certain that they
are inspired by purely patriotic mo-
tives, or are capable of maintaining
such a government if they succeed in
setting it up. But in any case the
throne seems to be lettering and crum-
bling under the sultan, at last, though,
as before. England may prop it up and
keep him on it for while longer, or
some one who will follow his policy
and example. While the sultan, ac-
cording to some apparently well in
formed and impartial travellers, is not
nearly so black as his enemies in
Christendom have painted him, ne is
doubtless a dark blot on the political
landscape of the earth, and should be
obliterated.

CARLSON WILL Be
ARRESTED AGAIN
Convicted of Crime of Passing Worth
less Checks In Pasco, Is Wanted
On Similar Charge In
Spokane.

John Carlson, who was arrested in
Pasco last fall charged with passing
worthless check on a business man,
and subsequently convicted and SEN
fenced to three months in the county
Jail, is to be arrested as soon as his
term has expired, which will be some
time the fore part of next week, the
new charge being forgery committed
in Spokane prior to the Pasco offense.
Carlson was brought to the county
Jail here for safe keeping, and is to be
released within a few days. Word was
received here today, however, from
Spokane, to the effect that a warrant
has been issued for his arrest on the
forgery charge and would be served
as soon as he was released. The forg-
ery consisted of attaching the name
of E. w. Olson, an employe of the
Washington Printing & Book Manu-
featuring company, to a check for $25
drawn on the Third National bank
The paper was passed on L. r. Dolby,
a clothing merchant of the Falls City,
who has issued the warrant for Carl
sons re-arrest.

DUG DITCH ACROSS
THE COUNY ROAD
Canadian Did Not Understand Laws
of United States and Distracted
Thoroughfares in His Own
Fashion.

Paying no attention it is said, to the
board of county commissioners and
not thinking of asking them for per-
mission, George Hines, proprietor of
new feed mill which has been built
about five miles below the city on the
Wallula road, has been busily engaged
for the past several days, digging a
ditch across the main county road for
the purpose of conveying water to his
mill.
Only yesterday was this discovered
and when Commissioner Fred Green
vile paid a visit to the place he found
that no time had been lost by Hines,
but that he had a fiume across the
road that was rapidly assuming large
proportions. When questioned by Com
missioner Greenville, Hines remarked
that he was not obstructing traffic as
he had constructed fine bridge. Upon
investigating the matter, it is said
that it was discovered that 4. small
plank affair had been thrown across
the flume, resting upon 4 by 4 stringers
that were not capable of Withstanding
a heavy load.
The flume. it is said, has been con-
structed in such a place that in case
high water should arise, the whole
flow of Mill creek would run into the
ditch and would endanger the entire
valley in that vicinity.
Mr.. Hines is but recently returned
from Canada and it is thought that
his unfamiliarity with laws pertaining
to digging up the county thoroughfare
for his own purposes. is his excuse for
doing so, but in the future he was in
formed all such cases must come
before the commissioners.

Mr.. ccMPERs GOING ABROAD.

Samuel GOmpers is going abroad, and
will be absent several months investi

countries of Europe. His mission has
the approval of union labor at nome
here. and upon his return he will pre-
pare an elaborate report of what the
journey has brought to him in the way
of information and suggestion.
The purpose is to be commended, and
Mr.. Gompers congratulated on mis- OPP
portunity He will have it in his pow
err to perform a great public service.
Not only will American labor be inter-
ested in his deliverence, but the whole
American people. We shall all want to
know how labor conditions and labor
laws abroad appear to a man of Mr.
Gompers' position in the labor world
and what he thinks American labor in
its program of advancement has to
learn from that source.
The American public. labor of course,

Organized and unorganized, labor has

This country is labor's garden spot, and

of a wage adequate for the rearing in

Relaxation is fine art and requires
study to be accomplished with entire

yourself down on your couch and think
you are completely relaxed you will
find that some muscle in your arm,
your neck or somewhere in your body
is still tense.
