PEACE TREATY SIGNED IN MEXICO
MADER0 BIDS FAREWELL TO TROOPS

from chihuahua state, which began
tho revolution and lived to enjoy the
fruits of victory.
Fifteen hundred insurrectos left at
daylight for Casas Grandes under
command of General Pascual Orozco
and Colonel Villa. More troops Will
leave for other parts of the interior,
and. with the departure OF the pro-
visional governors ina few days, only
zoo men under Colonel Jose Blanco
will stand guard in Juarez.
Giuseppe Garibaldi, a grandson OF
the Italian liberator, also will soon
leave after having been an active par
lticipant in the campaign which led
to the fall of Juarez.
| The movement of the inSurrectos
southwark also is significant because
it will remove from the United States
border the main fighting strength OF
the revolutionists. Casas Grandes is
$50 miles south of Juarez.
Liberty Is Fruit Of War.
"Soldiers," said Madero, you see all
about you the terrible consequences of
war. Beautiful buildings have been
destroyed and people have fled in ter
ror from their homes. Many of you
personally have felt the bitter suffer-
ings of fighting. You have gone hun
cry, have marched hundreds of miles
over the hot deserts, often without
water or sleep. You have shifted the
smoke of battle and some of you have
had occasion to contemplate death.
But, my soldiers, it has been a just
war. ALL of the suffering that has been
caused is as nothing to the suffering
which the result of this war will pre-
vent 1t was war against tyranny, its
fruit is liberty.
Reforms Promised People.
"My soldiers, bid you farewell. It
is sad to see you go, but you may
leave with lighter hearts than when
you came. In week or SO l shall
leave for Mexico to make permanent
the peace which followed our triumph
here. When peace is finally secure
you will have the privilege of leaving
the army if you like. There will be
no CONSUMPTION. The army which in
the future will uphold the liberty
guaranteed by the constitution of Mex
leo will be composed of soldiers who
join it from choice and who will re-
ceive good pay.
! Many things are yet to be done be
fore the principles for which we fought
are within our grasp. We are going
to have free elections. We are going
to have education along the lines
which will give our people the demo
cratic system of free thought and acts
that was in the hands of the liberators
of our country.
Soldiers, goodbye. You have fought
braVely. See that in your homes anG
in peaceful pursuits with your fellow
citizens you are as brave and loyal as
you have been in war with me-"

ton Association to Make Campaign
for Establishment Of Woodworking
Industries.

Seattle, May 2O-That every foot
of land in the state found not suitable
for agricultural purposes should be
forested and protected, and that work
was as much the. duty of the state as
it was that it should maintain schools
was the statement made by Gov. Hay
in the course of brief address made
to the members of the Washington
Conservation Association at a meet
ing in the Chamber of Commerce.
Gov. Hay, who was present, with
Mayor William w. Seymour, of Ia
coma, as guest of the association,
said that while all desired was not
provided by the forest protection law
passed by the last legislature, and
that while much remains to be done.
still good beginning has been made
Indebted to Association.
He said that the state was indebted
to the association for what it had ac-
complished for the lumber interests
of the state, as well as for the fire
instructions which it had prepared
and was publishing broadcast for the
protection of the states forests.
Gov. Hay expressed his conviction
that the state will yet have a proper
water code, under which justice will
be done all in the matter of granting
water power sites.
Mayor Seymour brought forth a
laugh from his audience when he said
that the question of conserv alton lust
now in Tacoma concerned jobs more
than all else. He said, however. that
the question of water power sites had
not yet received deserved considera-
ton, and that it was time steps were
taken to know what will be the states
stand upon that question.
