REBELS STEAL HORSES FROM
 SOLDIERS

SAN ANTONIO. Texas. March 24- One of tbe amusing incidents which has come to the surface among the savalry men patroling the Rio erande river is that of Mexican insurreetos slipping across the border stream anq stealing four horses from Troop l., Third Cavalry. stationed in the yicin fly of sam Fordyce. In addition to taking the horses. the theiyes helped themselves to complete equipment including the very best saddles
 The missing animals were tracked across the border and some distance into the interior where all traces of them were lost. l. is said by those doing patrol duty along the border stream that for real insidious tricks, Bret Harte's heather Chinee is an amateur when compared with some of those in the insurreeto ranks. Horse stealing is said 70 be heir long suit and when they fall at this the less proficient should not attempt it.

THE MILEAGE GRAB.

One Of the matters to be attended to
through orders OF the Vermont Iegisla-
ture, is an investigation of the mileage
system, by which legislators are paid
for travel between their homes and
Montpelier. The matter is brought forci-
bly, to the attention Of the public BY the
announcement from State Treasurer
Deavitt that the total cost to the state
OF the mileage of the last legislature
was over $4,000 This large sum is due
to the outgrown system Of computation,
under which members of the general
assembly are allowed ten cents mile
for mileage, whereas the actual cost to

The question whether the people have
a right to know what their servants,

The Importance OF the study Of agri.

people of Vermont on any and every
occasion nowadays; and not the least
notable Of these occasions was the school
conference which has just been held in
connection with the state university at
Burlington, when chance was given for
the discussion OF means to introduce the
study OF agriculture into the secondary
schools OF the state. At this time the
assertion was also made lin behalf Of the
university and the state agricultural coll

in the schools is heartily welcomed, as
indeed it should be since both are work

of the farming life Of the state. More

Oklahoma City, Feb. 11.-That GOV
ernor Lee Cruce made no mistake III
his recent message to the Legislature
i'm which he recommended to the
members Of that honorable body the
passage of laws beneficial to the peo-
pie of the state, and that Governor
Cruce can make no mistake by his
kindly advices and proper suggestions
which he made to the law makers,
is the substance of letters of com
mendation received by the governor
from the chief executives of various
states in the union. Governor Cruces
message which, in substance, might
have been taken to mean that he de-
sired the law makers to get busy and
to enact such legislation as would
be beneficial statewide, seems to have
created some surprise among those
not familiar with the duties imposed
upon the governor by our constitution
and recognized by most governors OF
the various states in these United
States.
AS a proper prerogative and duty
imposed upon them, the demand for
honest and necessary legislation made
by the governor of any state to the
assembled law makers in regard to
any specific needs is just and proper
according to the opinions of many
governors, who have written to the
governor of Oklahoma praising him
for the action he took and the senti-
ment he expressed in his recent mes
sage to the legislature.
