ExTRAD|TION OF MEMCANS
REFUSED THIS COUNTRY

SAN DIEGO, Nov. 13.-That the
Mexican government declines to hon
or the requisition for the return OF
Jesus Burrola and Miguel Maclez to
this country to answer to charges OF
kidnapping and robbery, is the unof-
fetal advice received at the Office OF
District attorney Utley.
The men were accused Of kidnapping
Ambrosia Ruiz, well known resident
of Ell Cajon, who, after being relieved
of SIG by his captOrs en- route to the
Mexican territory, succeeded in max
ing his escape.
District Attorney Utley in seeking
extradiiion papers preferred charges
of kidnapping and robbery against each.
The warrants of eXtradition asked
that the accused be surrendered to the
authorities of this county. They were
duly made out and acknowledged by
Governor Hiram Johnson. 1t was stat
ed by authorities this morning that
under the rules OF the treaties between
the United States and Mexico that
where the evidence in the case is sub
mitted that extradition is permissible.
Burrola, it is stated, was a former
chief of police of Ensenada. Soon af-
ter reports of the kidnapping and al
legged robbery of Ruiz were furnished
the authorities of Mexico, one OF the
accused was arrested at Calexico and
the other at Ensenada. Investigation
of the charges against the accused was
made by the court of the first in
stance. 1t is intimated that in the case
of Burrola and Maclez an appeal will
be made to Secretary OF State T. Z.
Knox.

The Famous Screen Man of Brighton" !"

The Famous "Green Man Of Brighton" i"
In October. 1906, an individual vas
to be observed at Brighton, England,
who walked out every day dressed in
green from head to foot-green shoes,
green gloves. green handkerchief and
other articles to match. This eccen-
tric person lived alone. knew nobody,
and in his house the curtains, the wall
paper. the furniture. even the plates
and dishes and the smallest toilet ar
ticles. offered an uninterrupted Sc
quence of green. Having started on
his career. there was obviously no rea-
son to stop. and with full consistency
he carried this scruples SO far as to
eat nothing but fruit and vegetables
Of the same green color. The cOnse-
quences were extremely disastrous
One fine day the green man jumped
from his window into the street, rush
ed forward and performed second
somersault from the top Of the nearest
cliff.

Climate and Food.

In the arctic regions human food is
almost exclusively animal. because
that is the only sort which is available
in quantity. In the tropics, where vege-
table food is abundant and animal
foods readily decay. plant products are
and always have been Of very great
importance in the diet. In temperate
regions all kinds of food may be Sc
cured, and it seems reasonable to sup
pose that all kinds have always been
eaten as they are today.

almost a natural roadway all the dis
tance. From Yuma II is natural for
this highway to pass through Imperial
Valley and from Imperial Valley
acress the low mountain range to San
Diego by the shortest and easiest
route. Such road will tap territory
already developed and much territory
that will be developed as fast as the
highways make it accessible.
"Such a road, connecting with our
highway system to the northern part
of the state, Will be an economic and
commercial success from the start. The
plan to Duild the road down the line
of the Southern Pacific track through
the Salton Sink to San Bernardino is
not feasible when compared to the
route straight across to San Diego. 1t
would leave the system with two spurs
south of San Gabriel Valley. The
proper route is to San Diego from
that valley and across to Imperial Val.
ley, connecting with the Arizona sys'

Citizens Indorse Project

"This plan has the hearty indorse-
ment and favor of the Arizona men,
both those now in office and those
who are to be elected to Office soon.
| talked with many of them about the
community of interest between Arizona
and San Diego, the completion of the
San Diego Il Arizona railroad, the
completion of the harbOr improve
ments and the completion of our ex-
position and the highway and found
not one man who was not heartily in
favor of all three projects.
With the railroad and the high
ways, San Diego will open up her
greatest market. She also will be-
come the shipping point for that
whole country for no road that ever
will be built will rival in direction
and in ease of operation the roads
that will leave into San Diego from
that country. Los Angeles and the
cities of the northern part of the
state are reaching out for the trade
of that country. They realize the op-
pcrtunity. San Diego must stand for
better and closer trade relations with
Arizona and New Mexico, to say moth
ing OF western Texas and southern
Colorado, all possible as feeders for
the business of San Diego as soon as
an adequate highway system and a
railroad are completed, linking them
togethre.
Arizona men feel this. They are
perfectly willing, and even anxious to
come to San Diego. What must be
done, therefore, is to SECURE the state
highway system on such route as
will bring the traffic of that highway
to this city and prepare ourselves to
become the entrepot of all that great
country.

WILL PROMOTE HIGHWAY
THROUGH THIS REGION

SAN DIEGO, Nov. 13.-"Nothing
San Diego has ever done made such a
good impression in Arizna, Imperial
Valley and the back country as the
excursion just completed through
those countries" said D. C. Collier,
Yesterday, in his office in Panama
California exposition headquarters.
THAT trip did lot of good to San
Diegans themselves. Very few OF us
have understood the real greatness
of Arizona and it's future. venture
to say that, not one of the boosters
on the train came home with any
thing but the highest possible opin-
ion of the potentiality and future
greatness of the empire that lies at
our doors.
There are several things we must
do to show the people of our great
tributary territory that we are IN ear
nest when we say that San Diego shall
be the gateway for the commerce of
this great country. One the first
things is right here al home-im-
prove our harbor. We intend to do
that, and are busy on the bond cleo
ton now. Another thing, and not
less important in the eyes of the Ari-
zonians and Imperial Valley people,
is the system of state highways that
is to be constructed in the near future
in California and in Arizona.
Most Advantageous Route
"These highways, constructed into
San Diego, will follow the line of least
physical resistance, will have fewer
high mountain ranges to cross and
will pass through less waste coun-
try than by another route. Take the
highway system of Arizona, planned
to be built from Salt River Valley,
through Maricopa Valley and down
the Gila Valley to Yuma and there is

OKLAHOMA LIQUOR
LAWS Being HEARD
SUPREME COURT OF THE UNITED
STATES ON INTERSTATE
SHIPMENT PROBLEM.

Washington, Feb. 23.-Practically all
the time Of the supreme court of the
United States today is to be consumed
with arguments in cases in which the
state of Oklahoma is requesting &C.
ton.
The first cases involve the right of
the federal courts in Oklahoma to
grant injunctions, which would result,
it is said, in the state officials being
prohibited from Selling liquor coming
into the state as interstate commerce.
Another case involves the right of
railroads to carry liquor into that sec
ton of Oklahoma that formerly was
Indian territory. In still another case
the state seeks to obtain an injunc-
ton to prevent the Atchison, Topeka
and Santa Fe railway company from
charging a higher freight rate in Ok
lahoma than is charged in Kansas.

Washington, Feb. 23.--An effort was
made to crowd through the senate the
new treaty with japanese on COM
merCe and navigation, but it met with
resistance from an unexpected quar-.
ter. Senator Hale said the treaty rep.
resented a voluntary surrender of q
commercial advantage which this
country would enjoy for another year
over the nations of Europe with whom
Japan is negotiating new commercial
relations.
Senator Lodge who reported the
treaty from the senate committee on
foreign relatives, which agreed to re-
port it after it's provisions had been
explained by Secretary of State Knox,
was unable to satisfy the directors.
Considerable feeling was exhibited
by Mr.. Lodge in answering the Maine
senator's criticism. II had been ex.

Toxic Feb. ga meeting of Am
orleans resident in Japan was held
in Yokohama recently In the interest

Among the business done was the
adoption of a resolution designed to
refute the reports that public senti-
ment in this country is hostile to the

Resolved, that in our opinion, the
people of Japan have at all times
entertained the most friendly and cor
dial sentiments toward the govern.
ment and people of the United States
and that there never has been nor is
now any feeling but of confidence and
gratitude. We believe, upon evi.
dence which cannot be doubted, that
there Is not to be found in the Japa-
nese empire any wish or thought
other than to maintain the most
friendly and cordial relations with
the republic of the United States,
and that any representations to the
contrary, wherever emanating and
from whatever cause proceeding, are
baseless calumnies, which, IL uncon-
tradicted, can only result in the vast
