John p. Rogers Writes Of Next
can Revolution.
Has Poor Opinion of Federals
and Insurgents.
BACKBONE
Says They Furnish Nerve fol
the Rebels.
War Proving Good Thing for
California and Texas.

John P. Rogers, formerly city en-
gineer in Topeka, lately moved to
California, writes to the State Jour-
nal an interesting and enlightening
letter on the Mexican war Mr.. Rog-
ers is in California on the Mexican
border. He tells of the instruction
from the standpoint of the people
who live near the borders and brings
out some new causes of the present
warfare that will look refreshing to
the people of the United States. who
believe that it is only through patriot
ism that the revolutionists are fight
ing the government.
The letter follows:
''In Camp, April IT, 1911.
81 saw by recent number of the
to camp that the Saturday Night
club was discussing the 'Mexica~ En-
broglio' Il would not dignity it by re-
ferring to it as a wary We that are
on the Mexican border and have OPP
portunities of observing from both
sides of the line are naturally much
interested watching developments.
Personally I sympathize with the
families of those engaged. but not
with the principals of either side. The
insurgents along the border are as a
rule the fiotsam and jetsam of Mexi-
CO and the United States freely inter-
spersed with adventures of other ma
adventure and hope of spoils much
more than any feeling of patriotism
or love of liberty.
"They are usually led by Mexican
officers nominally, but by Americans
in reality. These Americans are of
value to them for they are frequently
ex-soldiers of the United States army
and not only make good drill mas
ters, but by both their examples and
word instil the spirit of reckless brav-
cry in the natives and at the same
time teach their followers to hold
the Mexican regulars in the utmost
contempt. Through the insurgent
camp the title of Mexican regular IS
synonymous with that of coward or
poltroon.
''While the American army officers
pretend to sympathize with the Diaz
troops, 1 can find nothing on their
makeup to inspire praise. In every
engagement where they have met the
enemy in anything like equal numbers
and equipment, they have lost the day
by their cowardice. In fact, I think
one regiment of Kansas football men
could march from Juarez to the City
of Mexico without serious interference.
at has been battling subject to
many where the insurgents secure the
necessary 'sinews of war; but to US
who are near enough to observe, much
of this mystery is revealed.
First, in this mild climate 1t does
not require much to maintain these
men in the field, and as far as I can
observe, they have the following ave-
nues open to them:

en- route. their sympathizerS on the
American side of the line contribute to
the cause and are given credit accord
ing to the amounts promised. That in
the case of victory they will receive
concessions of lands greatly in excess
of their contributions. Rumor says
that the Socialists and labor unions are
sending money and arms to the in
surgents, hoping that in case of sue
cess attending their efforts that ter
ritory may be made a modern Arcadia,
where the socialistic teachings might
be demonstrated SO successfully that 1t
would place them in power in many
of the states.
"Others are led to contribute to the
cause in hope that the insurgent vic
tory might be followed by a general
dfSintegration of the Mexican republic
and enlarge the chances of lower Cali
States and thereby repeating the OPP
portunities of '49' and Klondike in
here with mineral lands.
There are some of the best ranches
over the line so located that they are
forced to contribute to both sides in
turn to secure immunity from the
ravages. By these various ways and
by many of the insurgents alternat-
ing their time between warfare and
working on the ranches on the Amer
lean side the insurgents are able to
keep a sufficient number in the field
lean republic especially when they
chose to adopt guerilla methods of
warfare and it looks to US as though
that unless the United States inter
feres it will be a long drawn out af-
fair.
1.-The herculean efforts of some CT
the inspired newspaper writer's to
work up United States-Japan war
scare out of this Mexican affair de-
serves more praise for their persis-
tency than their train of reasoning.
while the United States in general
would be pleased to see peace re
stored in our neighbor republic, CAL
ifornia and Texas are pleased to ac-
cept the situation as it brings much
money in circulation from the army
and navy modifying in our midst
The sailors and soldiers are a good
set of spenders and Uncle Sam fur
nishes with a lavish hand and it is
not often that a community is blessed
with flood of gold and q rare pro-
gram of military display such as only
the Mexicans are capable of pulling
off at one and the same time"

BOOM HOCH FOR SENATE.
Atchison Globe Suggests Him as Most
Satisfactory Candidate.

Atchison, Kan, April 22.-Although
it may not take him off the Chautau-
qua circuit, E. w. Hoch. former gov
ernor of Kansas, has a senatorial
boom, started by the Globe here Fri
day, which says, editorially:
why not E. w. Hoch for United
States senator? He is a magnificent
public speaker and would come near
er taking the place of John ]. Ingalls,
than anybody suggested. Hoch was
governor four years and made good
record. He has a lot of friends in
Atchison who believe that all that is
necessary to create strong feeling
for him over the state is to suggest
his name. Atchison doesn't owe any
thing to Curtis or Stubs and prob
ably would be for Hoch should he be
induced to get into the race"

ALL TAKE STRYCHNINE.
Two of a Family of Four Are Found
Dead.

Chicago. April 22.-Fear of impending
starvation caused a father and mother
to administer strychnine to themselves
and their two children, both under 4
years of age. The mother, Mrs. Hon
ore Dziurgot, and the older child, JOS
eph, are dead and the father and baby
are in a hospital, where, it is said, both
will recover.
Dziurgot in the hospital told of the
poverty which followed his long ill
ness and then related the desperate
agreement with his wife that the two
should poison themselves and their ba-
bies.
with my last Is cents,' he said, ST
bought the poison at a drug store. l
took it home and my wife and mixed
it in the little milk we had left. The
milk was the only food we had in the
house. Some was given to the children,
my wife drank some and 1 drank the
me or I could have died with my wife
and my boy.
IT remained with my sick wife until
all the money we had was gone. I could
get nothing to do, and we did not want
to live and see the little ones suffer.
We decided it was no use to try any
longer and agreed it was better to die
than to starve and see the children
starve before our eyes,
Dziurgot became i'll five weeks ago
and was forced to leave his work. His
resources were exhausted and when he
recovered his wife became i'll and the
man could not leave her and the chill
dren.
The four persons occupied a tiny cot
tage on the southwest side.

One of the most unique and inter-
esting exhibits to be made at the ex-
position will be a display of the old
French machinery used in excavating
the Panama canal.
The credit of originating this happy
idea belongs to Congressman Joseph
P. Knowland of Alameda county.
While on the isthmus not long ago,
the thought struck Congressman
KnowIand that it would be an excel
lent plan to make an exhibit of the
antiquated machinery used by De
Lesseps in his unsuccessful effort to
connect the two oceans.
The plan was preached to Colonel
Goethals, who was in hearty accord
and who Immediately instructed a
force of men to go into the jungle and
secure some of the old eXcavatorS and
other machinery.
The exhibit will probably consist of
an excaVator and a locomotive with a
train of diminutive dump cars, and
alongside will be displayed a modern
steam shovel and one of the huge loco
motives used at the present time by
the United States government.

SOLVES RUBBISH
PROBLEM
Gas Company Has Burner That
Effectively Destroys Trash.
Even Potato Feelings and Melon
Kinds Disappear When
Gas Is Applied.

What is probably the most prac-
teal and successful plan to dispose of
household rubbish, yet devised is be-
ing exploited by the local Gas Co.
The arrangement is nothing more
or less than a sheet metal and cast
iron stove with a combination burner
which will burn trash, wood, coal, gas
or anything that Is at all combustible.
The burner is but IA inches wide and
is made to attach on one end of the
kitchen range. 1t has adjustable legs
and may be lowered or heightened to
conform with any stove. When at
attached to the kitchen range it can
hardly be distinguished from the
stove itself.

TRADE is SLUGGISH.
Business Is Large. but Much Below
Producing Capacity.
1.-The Excellent Result Of
Milne "MU UsL Way
" unbPoken, Smooth and
Shaped TO Fit

New York, April 22.-Dun's Review
says:
Business continues to move slowly,
it's volume, though large, being much
below producing capacity and display
ing a lack of interest.
Dizziness in pig iron has become
more pronounced and production is on
a reduced scale with the leading in
terests having only about 70 per cent
of the furnace capacity active. Greater
quietness also is apparent in finished
material markets and curtailment of
mill operations is reported.
In the dry goods market there has
been no special backward movement
and some merchants believe the bot
tom has been touched on prices. Grad
ual improvement is noted in footwear.

San Francisco, April 22.-Charles
c. Moore, president of the Panama
Pacific International Exposition Co.
Mr.. Moore is a Woodworking, enthusi-
astic leader and under his manage
ment the great exposition cannot but
be a success. He has taken an active
part in the campaign waged for rails
ing the exposition funds. having lat
terly been placed at the head of the
finance committee. He is president of
Charles c. Moore & Co., engineers,
and the man who, by his successful
advocacy of the cause of San Fran
cisco in the capitals of Europe, secur-
ed the presence of the warships of six
nations in the bay at the time of the
Portola festivities.

While one is burning the old rags,
papers. boxes, potato Feelings. etc,
tho heat can be utilized for cooking,
heating water, etc., as the burned is
equipped with two lids and stove
holes.
To the housewife with small back
yard and much rubbish this new in
vention will appeal strongly. While
the Gas company exploits this burner
to increase the use of gas, by increas-
ing the number of ways in which gas
can be used. It will be welcome con-
venience in nearly every home as IL
solves one Of the most perplexinS
problems of the household.

Suit Over water Taxes.

Suit in equity filed in the United States
circuit court this morning involves a tax
title to large amount of land owned by
the Metropolitan Water company, of Kan
sas City, against which taxes aggregating
$12 600 had been assessed. When the land
was assessed, the water company alleged
that the proceedings had not been in ac-
cordance with the state laws and refused
to pay taxes. Then the Wyandotte county
officials filed claim for the amount and
claimed an equity in the land to the
amount of the taxes. 1t is to adjust this
trouble that the matter was taken to the
federal courts.
