place of Harry Davis, the veteran

His brilliant work in the worlds

PEhCE RE;IGNS
In NORTHERN
END0F MEXICO

Juarez Mexico, May 22,-
Tranquility reigns in northern
Mexico for the first time in six
months. The news has been
sent to the various portions of
both federal and rebel armies
that the peace terms have been
signed and that hostilities will
cease.
Madero will await the resigna-
ton Of President Diaz before
proceeding to the capital City,
which is scheduled to take place
within a week. At that time
Senor De La Barra will take up
the reins of the government.
The insurrecto army will be grad
ually disbanded. The object Of
this is apparent, for in case
large number of the soldiers were
sent home at once, with nothing
to do, the matter of their control
would be a difficult one.
Trouble is anticipated in Lower
California, and General Orozco
is prepared with a band of tried
followers to move tothat place at
once and quell any disturbances.
A message has been received
from Senior de La Barra, in which
he thanks Madero for his con-
gratulations and expresses the
hope that all parties, federal and
rebel alike, will work harmon
iouslY for the reconstruction of
their country along more liberal
lines than heretofore.

Own
automobiles

The farmers in several Kansas
counties own more autos than
are owned by the people living
in the cities of the same counties.
For example Reno county farmers
own five hundred of the buzz
wagons, while the citizens of
Hutchison the principal city of
the county own less. In Ford
county the farmers own 300 joy
wagons, while the city folks have
less than that number to their
credit on the assessors books.
Looks like the farmers of "Windy
old Kansas" are coming into
their own yet.

Will, VOTE ON
STATEHOOD
AT SPIN. T0DAY

Washington, D. G., May 90
The joint resolution in regard
to statehood for Arizona and
New Mexico, will come up for
vote at 8 o'clock tomorrow af-
ter noon. At todays sessi on
the house resu med the debate
on the measure. Representa-
tive Crumpacker of Indiana
made a forceful speech against
the measure, claiming that
since both territories had al
ready adopted the constitu
tions, they should not be COM
PEELED to vote on them again.
Ia the case of Arizona, he was
willing to nave the recall left
to a vote OF the people a
second time, butdenied theNew
Mexicans the right to a second
vote on the amending clause.
Portland of Missouri spoke
at length in favor of the JOINT
resolution, showing that it
was only fair to New Mexico
to give her people a right to
vote on the amending clause,
if Arizona is to be allowed a
second vote on the recall.
Delegate Andrews made a
short address in which he
claimed that since the consti-
tuition had been adopted by a
majority of 1890, it should
not be put to a vote the second
time. The attendance in the
House today was very slim
the members apparently hav.
ing heard all they care to Of
the matter until the time fol
the vote to be taken.

With the K.
6. 5. Club

The editor and family took
dinner Sunday with MIR. and
Mrs. Amos Kuykendall, who
entertained the Kentucky Cab
bic Society," also. Having been
born within a few miles of the
Ohio River on the Illinois side,
we were taken in as an "honary"
member of the society. A splen-
did dinner including some of the
early vegetables right from the
garden was more than enjoyed.
Mr.. and Mrs. Kutchin had their
instruments with them and en-
tertained the crowd with in
strumental and vocal music. The
afternoon passed so quickly that
we were loath to believe our
watch when five o'clock came.
That the Kentuckians have the
knack of making one feel at
home, was proven by the after
noon's pleasure. That there
were twenty three who partook
of the dinner did not act as a
"skidoo" except to the victuals
on the table, which disappeared
as if by magic. The invitations
to join them again will be ac-
cepted more than willingly.

Sunday was a busy day at the
postofice. The train from the
south brought in ak large bags
of mail matter, which contained
over nine hundred pieces of mail.
The Postmaster and his assistant
worked for several hours, almost
losing their dinner in the game.
Yesterday Moons mail brought
in four more bags, among which
were about three hundred letters
besides a lot of papers and mag
azines. The postoffice being a
good indicator of the business of

LOpim6r will
be Investigated

Washington, D. c., May %
Prompt and sweeping will be the
investigation of the, manner in
which Senator Lorimer of Illinois
secured his seat in the u. S.
Senate, according to the report
of the senate committee on previ
leges and elections. The repub-
licans in the senate attempted to
kill the resolution calling for the
investigation, but in vain. The
democrats threw their support to
the measure which is a substi-
tute for the LaFolette measure.
Senator LaFolette had given
notice last week that he would
call up his measure today. Sena-
tor Gillingham, chairman of the
committee on privileges and
elections, reported the substitute
for the LaFolette measure. The
substitute will be adopted.
