UNCLE SANS CLERKS
MUST DO MORE WORK

Washington, Dec. II. - President
Taft and his cabinet have decided
that all government clerks employed
in Washington shall work half an hour
longer each day. The decision Is in
line with the policy of the administra-
ton for greater efficiency and economy
in government departments. The time
for reporting each morning was fixed
at $3.50 O'Clock instead of 3. Ii
Up to few years ago the govern
ment clerks in Washington worked
from 8 o'clock until 4, with half an
hour for lunch, making an actual work
ing day Of only six and one-half hours.
Then the hours were extended to 4:30,
SO as to give seven-hour day. Nov
the clerks will have to work seven
and half hours each day.

MEXICAN TROOPS ROUTED
BY INsURGENT FORCES

Ell Paso, Tex, Dec. 17.-Federal
troops were completely overthrown in
an engagement lasting several hours at
La Junta, a small town near Minaca,
on the Mexico Northwestern and
Orient railroads, according to authen-
tic information received here. At 4:30
last evening the remnant of the federal
troops, numbering $50, surrendered
their arms and ammunition and were
allowed to depart in the direction of
Chihuahua.
Owing to the wires being cut in
many places. no details of the battle
can be secured. A telephone wire
running north through the mountains
brought the news to the Juarez branch
of the Mexican Northwestern that the
federals we're overwhelmingly defeat
ed. The federal forces we're supposed
to number over 1000 men, and were
in command of Gems. Navarro and Her.
nandez.
The fight at La Junta is believed to
be a continuation of the battle report
ed in the vicinity of San Andres Thurs
day night.
An effort was made yesterday to run
trains over the Mexico Northwestern
into Chihuahua, but with what success
cannot be learned. The railroad off,
Gals admit that the insurrectos are In
complete control Of the entire region,
and that traffic is practically at q
standstill.

PROVINCE TO SPEND
VAST SUM ON ROADS

Victoria, B. c., Dec. 19.-The pres
ent government of British Columbia,
headed by Hon. Richard Mcbride, is
making a record in road building
which, taking into consideration the
population of the province, is probably
second to none.
With an estimated population Of a
little over 100000, the British Colum-
bia government will expend something
like $4,5OO,00O this year. in the building
of roads. All this money. is drawn
from the treasury and is not especially
levied for one period.
The argument is that, even with the
other vast natural resources of the
province, agriculture must in the final
event be the mainstay of its prosper
ity, and agriculture first of all must
have good roads.
Through Magificent Scenery. n.
Among the many roads now under
construction under the supervision Of
Thomas Taylor, minister of public
works, is the road from the Alberni
district through to Ucluelet and Clayo-
uuet on the west coast. This road
will be marvel of wonderful scenery
and at the same time will open up
large tracts that will become excellent
agricultural country. Some Of this can
be drained and turned into tillable
land, some of 1t is very heavily tim
bered, other portions little timbered,
and here and there in the river valleys
and around the lakes will be found
open spaces.
This road will cross rivers and ex-
tend along the lakes Of the central and
western portion Of Vancouver island.
and from q point Of picturesque at
Effectiveness will afford never-ending
variety of scenery to the lover OF out
doors.

CANADIAN FARMERS
OUTLINE DEMANDS

Ottawa, Ont, Dec. 17.-With 4 view
to obtaining at first hand opinion OF
farmers Of Canada In regard to the
tarif and other questions Of import.
ance to the agricultural interests. mem.
bers Of the Dominion government and
parliament yesterday gave hearing
to q delegation Of over 500 represents,
tives Of the organized farmers OF the
country. The conference was held In
the chamber Of the house Of commons,
The extraordinary public interest at.
tached to the conference was eyf.
denced by the fact that the galleries
were filed long before 10 o'clock, the
hour fixed for the hearing to begin
Representatives of newspapers in all
parts Of the Dominion were present.
Among the agricultural organiza,
lions represented at the hearing were
the Grain Growers Association OF
Manitoba, Alberta and Saskatchewan
the organized farmers and dairymen
Of Ontario and Quebec, and the fruit
growers Of the maritime provinces
The Canadian Council of Agriculture
and the Dominion Grange were repre-
scented by many of their officials and
leading members.
Chief Requests Made.
The chief requests presented to the
conference were five in number, as fol
lows:
Placing of manufactured articles
used by farmers on the free list.
Government ownership of railway
line to Hudson Bay.
The establishment of a chilled meat
trade in Canada to foster a greater
export business.
The passing of a law to permit the
formation of cooperative societies.
Government ownership of terminal
elevators.
The foregoing, in the opinion of the
farmers organizations, represents in
general way the chief points of the
program which the government should
adopt with a view to furthering the
best interests Of the several million
persons engaged in the agricultural
industry in Canada. The details Of the
program are left to be worked out
later, with such notifications relating
to the tariff and trade preference as
may be found necessary.
A policy of reciprocity with the Uni.
ted States, it is urged, would prove a
great boon to the Canadian farmer
both as to buying and selling, as it
would enable him to get his nipple.
ments and farm equipment cheaper,
and to sell his wheat for more, as the
Western farmers claim the prices OF
wheat in the Minneapolis market
range considerably higher than the
price in Winnipeg.
