MEXICAN BELLIGERENTS

Ell PAso, May 17.--Peace IN
Mexico today hinges on the attitude
of Provisional President Madero, ac-
cordlng to Judge Carabajal, peace
representatlve cf President Diaz.
"The only thlns,' aid Judge Car

that will block peace negotiations

trary stand by General Madero. !
think II is certain that some definite
action will be taken within the next
thirty hours. The preliminaries are
past and we are now dealing with a
concrete proposition. The answer
from Madero must be either yes OF
no."
In view Of recent sweeping rebe
successes and the announcement o
the withdrawal of the federal force
from the state of Sonora, where mil
lions are invested In mining prop
erty, it was believed here today tina
President Diaz would not ask tn
rebels to amend their terms to an

HENEy ANSWERS TAFT
ON RECALL CRITICISM

NEW YORK, May 17.--Francis
]. Heney started today for San Fran
cisco. Replying, before his depart
ure, to President Taft's statement
that the recall Of judges proposition
would be laughed to death by the
American people, Heney said:
"The danger Of playing this power
in the hands of the people, In my
opinion, is greatly exaggerated.
President Taft seems to think that
II the power TO recall Judges existed
in the people, II would be exercised
on the slightest and most trivial
provocatlon and would often lead to
the recall Of Judge because his
rulings did not satisfy the critical
public. There is no danger OF this
The recall has existed in Oregon fol
five years and as yet no attempt
has been made to recall any Judge.

WANT TO CREATE REPUBLIC
IN LOWER CALIFORNIA

SAN DIEGO, May 17,-That the
Mexican liberal party, with head
quarters In Los Angeles, is directing
the work on the rebel forces In Low
er California, or Is at least closely
allied with them, was made evident
today when Il was announced that
Ricardo Flores Magon, OF the Los An
geles junta, had been installed as
collector OF customs at TIA Juana,
which was captured by the rebels
last week.
The announcement was made from
General Prices headquarters. A
manifesto which was issued today BY
the Mexican liberal party here makes
II plain that the members OF this
party hope TO establish what they
call liberal republic In Lower Cal
ltornia. All OF those in Prices
command say they do not want Ma.

tocrat TO succeed Dlaz as president
OF Mexico, There Is much discussion
here over Lower California becoming
a part ot the United States.

Chronic crouch; who soes through life

pervert that spreads poison at every hand.
Avoid him as you would hideous mon.

He is his own worst enemy. You might
say his entire life is spent in an endeavor
on his part to take revenge against himself
and against all mankind. Men and women
of that type are committing crime against
themselves and against every one with
whom they come in contact. II it is
crime to commit suicide, then they are
criminals, for such people are already dead
mentally. Their minds are living GENE
ties; that is, they are filed with the ac-
cumulated corpses Of the evidence OF past
sorrows. Such people ougth to be pro-
tected from themselves, and others ought
to be protected from them. If they can
not be cured then at least they ought to
have a separate community where they
could all get together" and in the pleasure
of exchanging sorrows find so much Joy
that ultimately they might be cured.
Do not nurse a crouch. 10 not be crab

over you the wholesomeness Of content.

Breaking Land In Mon
tana
PRor. THos. SHAW.

Much land is now being broken by pow
er plows on the Western prairies. Some
of these are propelled by the aid Of steam
and some by the aid Of gasoline. That
such plows are at work is fortunate Tor the
farming of the West. Many farmers have
taken up land who are not in position to
pillow any of 1t with teams it may be the
present season. They may. however, be
able to secure the service of one Of those
plows to turn over for them a number oil
acres. II they can make such an arrange
ment. aud il they can get the land worked
on the top so as to hold moisture, a good
crop is almost assured for them when 1t IS
sown on such land the following year.
Much will depend. however, on the
nature Of the blowing. The tendency IS to
break up the land too shallow, not only
when it is broken by teams, but also
when it IS broken by the aid vi power.
The farmer who employs a power pillow
should have a clear and definite under
