Berthold's idea was to establish a
so-called socialist republic in Lower
California. That the present would
be an opportune time to invade Mex
leo is generally admitted, and one the
ory is that another attempt like Ber-
tholds is under way. From Campo
the roads into Mexico are easy.
Chief of Police Wilson thinks the
Il. W. W. movement to the south is to
swell the proposed army Of invasion
He said today:
"I don't think it is for anything
else. There is quite force of these
men near the line. Mexican troops
are after them on the south side and
United States troops on the north. A
man named Tobo is in charge. He
has been wanted for some time in con-
nection with the shooting of a man
named Arguello in Jacumba valley"

CONTRACTORS
STATEMENT
ON TRUSSES

Salem, April 22, 1912.-We as con-
tractors for the new Carnegie library,
wish to make a statement regarding
the failure of trusses.
We have reports from the Newcomb
Engineering Co., a concern which
makes truss designing their profess
sion, and who designed the trusses
for the Salem armory; also Mr.. C.
Madsen, who designed all the steel
work for the new court house in Port
land. Both concerns emphatically
state that the failed trusses are not
strong enough.
The Portland building department
has also rendered a report which con-
demns the trusses.
The library committee on April 9th
made a practical test of the strength
of trusses, the result being that the
trusses failed a second time by buck
ling and sagging IS inches.
We wish to emphasize the fact that

CALIFORNIA
PENINSULA

"
San Diego, Cal, April 22.-That an
other invasion OF Lower California
like that headed for a time by Simon
Berthold in the recent revolution in
Mexico is planned for the near future,
is the opinion Of some local authori-
ties who have received reports of re-
cent activity near the Mexican line.
In the last week several small par
ties Of men have been seen marching
from San Diego toward Campo, which
is 80 miles east, near the interna-
tonal boundary.
All these men carried packs made
up in the same way each long enough
TO hold a rifle II taken apart. They
are described as hard-looklng men. In

When a squad of officers, deputy constahles and policemen, went to a negro dance hall in a settlement known as Red Row, south of the plant of the Arkansas Short Leaf Lumber Company, west of the city limits last night, more than a hundred negro men and women tried to leave the place all at one time.

 The city officials should put a stop to this practice and not be dea. to the complaint of the property owners, who have taxed themselves repeatedly to give Pine Bluff good pavtements. What is the use of im- provement districts and large ex- pend tura of money on the part of the property owners if the city officials stand by and permit plumbers, the gas company and the wa'ter company to destroy good pavements, which cost thousands of dollars to build.
 The time has come wlJen the prop cry owners of Pine Bluff are getting tired of f(promises on the part of the city officials. They will measure the official by Il good works hereafter and unless this all important matter If street protection is given them hey will resend it and should resent 1t at the polls.
 There is no excuse for such out rageous treatment at the hands of the city officials. They always give the property owners some excuse when there is a complaint filed, but after the compla mt is made it is soon for' getten and the complete destruction of the paved streets continue.

 Dancer was assaulted on a lonely road, with some bluat instrument, and his skull fractured. His body was then thrown into shallow pond his assailant very likely thinking that he was dead. The cold water revived him, however, and he man. aged to crawl from the pond to the road, where he was later found by a passerby. Dancer is not fatally hurt.
 Dancer, it is said, early on the evening om which the assault occur red, had attended negro dance al a boarding car fer negroes employed by the Bluff City Lumber Company and had had trouble with Hare.
 Dancer and Hare were both em- ployed by the lumber company.
 Several shacks near the lumber camps were fired into by unknown persons nthe same night, but it i thought that this was done by ne groes living near, and who were nc employees of the company, as it i: understood that they resent the re cent importation of negroes from distance by the company.
