LANSING, Mich, April 14.-Bird
day Is this year established as part or
the Arbor day observance, under q
concurrent legislative resolution intro
duced by Senator L. Whitney Watkins.
Gov. Osborns proclamation setting
aside the day Is issued today, ana
reads:
The Importance of the proper OBJ
servance OF an Arbor day IL becoming
more apparent every year. The prob
lem OF conservation OF our natural
resources is one OF national proper

day Is furnishing the people or our
commonwealth with a clearer under

While the purpose OF the day Is TO
stimulate the pride and interest OF the

policy OF conservation and reforestra-
ton, thereby creating value as well as
adding comfort and beauty for the
benefit OF present and future genera

protecting and encouraging song and

This is a commendable action. II is
desirable to teach an intelligent appre-
citation OF the pleasures and benefits to
be derived from birds. Almost all
birds do more good than harm. The
balance of value Is clearly In favor OF
even all the hawks, except two. 1t is
much better TO let a. harmful bird es-

farmer should be a bird guardian. To
be interested in and kind TO birds Is a
sign OF gentleness and makes one bet
ter.

grounds is recommended, and IL Is re-
quested that all public schools and

]. STROOPs STOP
BAT TIE IN MEXICO
Rebels Are in Possession of Aqua
Prieta After Fight il Which Tive
Americans Were Killed.

DOUGLAS, Ariz., April .14.-The
Mexican insurgents under Red
Lopez, are in complete control of the
town OF Aqua Prieta today, after a
spectacular battle in which two Amer
leans were killed and several wound
ed as they stood on the international
border and watched the progress OF
the engagement.
The battle was brought TO an end
by Captain Gaujot, of the First United
States cavalry, when he was advised
OF the bullets flying across the line
and wounding American non-com-
batants. He galloped his forty troop
ers to the border amid shower of
bullets, deployed them along the lire
and induced the forces engaged, to
cease firing. The federal garrison OF
the town at once abandoned their
arms to the insurgents. evacuated
Aqua Prieta and placed themselves
under the protection of the United
States troops.
The engagement was the fiercest
that has vet taken place in this sec
ton of Mexico, and large number
of men on both sides were killed or
wounded Under the chaotic condi-
tons which prevail, however, it is i'm
possible TO get an accurate estimate
of the casualties.

BERKELEY, Cal, April 14.-Berke-

mia, a college city of $4,000 inhabl-
tants, has elected a. Socialist mayor,
the first of any California municipal
ty.
And IL ]. Stitt Wilson, known
throughout the contry as a Socialist
lecturer. carries out his program.
Berkeley will be governed as is Mil
waukee under Mayor Seidel, whom he
has taken as his pattern.
Wilson was elected by close mar
gin over the present incumbent, Bev.
erly Hodghead. who was chosen two
years ago as the Good Government
club" candidate. Hodghead Is law
yer. somewhat of the silk-stocking
type.
Col. Roosevelt, who gave a series OF
lectures at the university during the
course of the campaign, took occasion
TO speak a good word for Hodghead
and hoped he would be reelected
but II didn't seem TO take. President
Benjamin Ide Wheeler OF the uniyoT.
sity openly used his influence Tor
Hodghead-but the students helped
Wilson and made his campaign d
hummer.
A whole lot of people lined up fCv
Wilson as a Socialist, many more for

wilson as man, and Hodghead's s
old-time opponents helped out. with
the result that when the votes were
counted Wilson had slipped in with
2Sl votes TO spare.
AS candidate for governor in the
last campaign, Wilson rolled up the
largest Socialist vote in the history OF
the state. He calls himself a Carl
Marx Socialist. He is practical. well
educated-having secured a master OF
arts degree from the Northwestern
University of Chicago, and studied al
Oxford and other European uniVer-
sities-and magnetic speaker.
There will be nothing dramatic or
spectacular In my work as mayor OF
Berkeley says Wilson. I'VE are now
face to face with the practical prob
lens and in that respect expect to
follow Milwaukee. There will be no
political appointments by me: only
merit and ability will count in the
public service. I don't expect to usher

initiate a municipal policy for Berke.
