 SAN DIEGO, June Word has been received that Capt Tony Viza. commander of the Mexican troops in the Northwestern section of the coun- try. was executed this morning at sun rise for having killed an American serving under him.
 A month ago word was received that an American officer of the Mexican army had been killed by Mexican who was his superior officer, and the killing was cold blooded murder and prompted by jealousy. X court martial was called and yesterday they handed in their verdict ordering the Mexican officer to be shot at sunrise.
 The American had been drilling the Mexican troops and was getting them in fine fighting trim to take the field against the insurrectos. and the men were becoming attached to the young officer Captain viza was loosing his grip on the man and being fearful he would lose his command deliberately planned to do away with the American officer
 About month ago he provoked a quarrel during a game of cards in which several officers were seated and without any warning drew his pistol

BROOKS WANTS PATENTS ISSUED .

WASHINGTON. n. C.. June l. Alfred II Brooks head of the Alaska mineral resources in connection with the United States Geological Survey. has issued a bulletin in connection with the coal lands of Alaska.
 In lengthy report he states that

CAPT. MEXICAN ARMY EXECUTED
SHOT AMERICAN SERVING
 UNDER HIM--PAYS PENALTY

and shot the American through the heart
 The act aroused feeling of disgust in the other Mexican officers who re- ported the entire proceedings to head quarters and a court martial was or dered.
 The court martial wasn't able to con vene owing to the truce of peace being in preparation, and all waiting for an outbreak of orders to disperse. for that reason they didn't hold court until yesterday and after hearing particu- lars they ordered that Captain Tony Viza be taken to the Plaza of the town and with his back to the executors he shot as the sun rose.
 A squad of six soldiers this morning at about six o'clock was given the word fire" and Captain Viza fell dead pierc- ed through the heart and breast by several bullets.
 It is believed that the act on the part of the Mexican officers will stop the rumors of an investigation on the part of the United States and prove to Americans that Americans will not stand for cold blooded murder.

MORE POWER TO GOVERNORS.

THE conference Of governors held Spring
tA Lake, ~ j., Governor Edwin l.. Norris OF Mon
n gave his fellow governors some food for
thought and pubcsts in general an opportunity
for criticism by boldly declaring enlarged guberna-
torial power Governor Norris would have the state
executive given the to dismiss inefficient officers
charged with the enforcement of criminal remedial
laws and given the right initiate refer legis-
laton to tho voters for their approval.
The temptation to critcIse is strong. But dis
passionate study of the proposal tempta-
uon to minimum, IT, indeed, it does not transform it
into unqualified approval Here in oklahoma see
the need of the first power suggested If the
ecutye had the right to dismiss Inefficient officers
CHARGED with the enforcement Of criminal and rcmdiaI
laws would speedily either have such laws enforced
as they have been enforced since statehood or
there would be wholesale sevcriug of official heads
1t win be recalled that Governor Cruce fought for
Just such power during the last session Of the Icgsa-
Ills celebrated enforcement law contained a pro-
vision permitting him to DISCHARGE dorcct prosecuting
attorneys under certain conditions. This feature alone
caused the n to be bitterly fought and finally defeat
ed. And like conditions we observe exist in practically
every one of the states
The proposal that the executive shall have the right
to initiate and refer legislation is not radical Ten
years ago It Many states have the initiative aud
referendum. Others are fighting the popular demand
for these popular laws but soon must surrender And
whore such laws exist there good reason why the
executive should not have tho right propose while
hcrc are several reasons why he should. with such
authority vested the executive recalcitraut Legislatures
would pause before inviting test Of strength with the
executive.

THE NEWSPAPER AND ITS
EDITOR.

Editing newspaper in some re-
spects is good deal like preaching.
The gospel truth must be presented in
the form of generalities or some fell
low will get hit and howl, says a re-
cent writer. Few persons like truth,
even in homeopathic doses, if it hits
them. But while preachers and
editors are criticised for what they
do say, no one thinks Of giving them
credit for what they do not say. Yet
what they keep to themselves consti-
tutes the major portion of what they
know about people. Very many peo-
pie harbor the belief that newspa-
pers are eager to publish derogatory
things. It's a mistake. There isn't
a newspaper that could not spring
sensation in the community at any
time by merely telling what 1t knows.
There is not newspaper that does
not keep under the lock of secrecy
scores Of derogatory things which
never meet the public eye or reach
the public ear. Deciding what not to
print is the most troublesome part of
newspaper work. How many good
stories are suppressed for innocent
relatives and for the public good, no
body outside Of a newspaper office
has any idea Of. In some instances
he who flies Unto a passion because
a newspaper prints something about
him which he considers uncompli-
mentary has every reason to feel pro-
foundry grateful to the newspaper for
publishing so little Of what it knows
of him. And oft times the loudest
buffer is the most vulnerable to at
tack. A big noise is often a device
employed to cover trepidation. News
papers put up with more bluffing
than any other agency would endure.
1t 10 not because they lack courage;
1t is because they are unwilling to
use their power to destroy or ruin
unless the interests of society i'm.
peratively demand it. It might be
well for some people to reflect upon
these truths and in silent gratitude
accept mild admonition, lest worst
befall them.-Minneapolis Argus.

for comradeship, between men who de-

seldom realize that comradeship is the
great dynamic force of human prog

Nazareth and the twelve disciples
made possible our glorious Christian
civilization.
