TO IRRIGATE FROM
EXTINCT VOLCANOES
Novel Plan For Obtaining
Water For Growing
Crops in ,JaliScO.

Guadalajara, Mexico, April 25.-Ag-
riculturists of the state of MichoacAn,
owning land tributary to the railroad
now being built from PenJamo to Ajuno
by the National Railways of Mexico, are
considering plans for tapping extincI
volcanoes to secure water for irriga-
ton. There are several extinct VOL
canoes in that section, and they contain
enormous supplies of water. 1t is be-
neved that the water is from subter-
raAean sources, as the supplies do not
appear TO vary.
The new railroad will provide an out
let for the products of that section Of
Michoacan, and it is desired to bring G
great additional area under irrigation
and cultivation. IF a way can be found
to successfully tap the volcanoes for
the water they contain it will be of
great benefit to land owners.
A. r. de Steiguer, a young engineer
from San Marcos, Texas, who Is in
charge of the railroad construction,
may be asked to undertake the details
of the unique irrigation system.

Globo." local newspaper? declares thai
the recent bandit raid on Palos verdes
town in the Mascota district Of this
state, in which Jose Monies de Oca, the
Judge of the town. and several other
residents were killed, was melted by
Gen Mariana Ruiz, governor of the ter
ritory of Topic. 1t says that lawyer
named Garmendia, secretary of the
city council of Topic. directed the raid
for Ruiz
Eel Globo" states that the Topic gov
ernor sought to gain possession of some
rich land, part of which is in the mu-
nicipality of Camotlan, Topic, and part
in the Mascota district of JaIisco. He
pretended to find, the paper says. that
the actual owners of the land were
holding it unlawfully, and that it
should be returned to the former In
dian owners, planning to take it from
the indians later. In the hope of saw
ing their holdings, the land owners
crossed the line into Jalisco and sought
protection from Monies tde Oca and
other Jansco authorities. The raid was
planned, it is said, with the idea of do
ing away with ssome of the opponents
of the land grab. and of terrorizing
others
Ruiz is one OF, the governors whose
resignation is demanded by the Ma
deristas
The article in "E1 Globo" shows the
present bold attitude of the Mexican
press. Formerly. such an attack on a
governor would have been fraught with
serious consequences for the editor.

ent Injured in Spanish
American War.

= Edward Marshall, the first war cor
respondent wounded during the Span
ish-American war. is here to cover the
peace negotiations for the Publishers
Press association and the Columbia
Magazine which he represents as spe-
cial staff man.
Mr.. Marshall was representing the
Hearst papers in Cuba during the war
and was shot in the spine during the
first engagement. He lost the use of
his lower limbs from the resulting
paralysis, and it was NECESSARY to am
putate one Of his legs. His work fol-
lowing the accident was one of the
big human interest stories of the Span
ish war. He was completely helpless
but he dictated the story or the battle
for his papers from the hospital while
he smoked one cigaret after another.
The barricaded footbridge over
the river had no terrors for
Marshall Sunday and although he
walks with difficulty, he claimbed
over the barricade with the as
sistance of his friends, walked to Ma
dero's camp and interviewed Madero on
the peace proposals. When he attempted
to retrun the United States soldiers re-
fused to permit him to pass over the
bridge, SO he remained in Madero's
camp over night.

One of Madero's demands is that all

Sonora, chihuahua, Coahuila and Du-
range must be continued in office. the
federalS to retire. This, he says, will
be the first step toward carrying into

turn out the chronic officeholders and
put in men elected by the people,"
Then he wants the no-reelection meas

He wants the word of the Diaz cab
met that these reforms will be carried
out and as a further pledge Of sincerity,
he wants all his men permitted to carry
their rifles home with them Then. in
case of a violation of national pledges,
the soldiers may be called again to
