change of proposals and replies
would, it was believed, lead to fur
ther negotiations between the Off
Gals of Mexico City and John Lind,
the personal representative of this
government.
To Act At Discretion.
Mr.. Lind, it was asserted tonight,
had been instructed from Washington
to continue to act at his own discre-
tion as to whether he should await
developments at Vera Cruz or return
to Mexico City. Up to late hour no
dispatches had been received at the
state department from Mr.. Lind. Sec
retary Bryan said before leaving for
an overnight trip in Pennsylvania
that he believed the envoy would re-
main in Vera Cruz tonight. Early in
the day Mr.. Bryan conferred with
the president over the reply of Senor
Gamboa, Mexican secretary Of foreign
AFFAIRS to Mr.. Lind's second note.
They also considered message
sent by Mr.. Lind to Washington yes
terday afternoon. That these latest
communications gave reason for
hopeful expectations was freely ad-
mitted.
Mr.. Lind, it was reported, proba-
bly, would make the n ext move in the
negotiations, which the president
emrnatically asserted in his message
had not been closed end could be re-
sumed on the initiative of either ma
ton. The fact that the Mexico City
officials in their second note Of reply
had receded from the demand for an
exchange of accredited ambassadors,
it was pointed out, left an opening
for future moves The view was ex-
pressed that the Gamboa reply to
the second American note might ac-
tuate Mr.. Lind to address third note
to the officials of the Huerta govern
ment. Acting at his own discretion,
it was suggested, the American rep
resentative might forward a message
to Mexico City from Vera Cruz be-
fore determining upon going to the
Mexican capital in person for re-
newal of direct negotiations.
Discussed Situation.
Before deciding to go to Cornish,
President Wilson discussed the sit
uation at length with cabinet officers
and arrangements were made where
by he could be. notified at once of any
developments. Should anything hap
pen to require his presence in Wash
ington before Tuesday, he planned to
return at a moments notice. Mr..
Tumulty, secretary to the president,
remained in Washington tonight to
be in direct touch with Developments,
planning to go to mis- New Jersey
home tomorrow, however, upon the
return of Secretary Bryan.
Hundreds of telegrams and letters
reached the White House from all
parts of the country expressing ap-
proval of President Wilson's message
on Mexico. These were not made
public but the president is known to
have been highly gratified at the
sympathetic reception his course had
received.

Lister Saves State Cash.

Olympia - Governor Lister an
nounced that he had named L. H. Oar
win, of Bellingham, whom he has pre-
viously appointed State fish commits
sioner, to the post of chief game war
den, a place created by the last legis-
lature. Now Darwin will have two
state positions to fill. In addition to
being chief game warden he has juris-
diction over Western Washington,
while R. B. Wales, of Spokane, coun-
ty game warden there, will have
charge of the Eastern Washington dis
trict.
In a lengthy statement Mr., Lister
explains why he has selected Darwin
for two positions, saying that as fish
commissioner he is in touch with the
fishing interests and knows the best
methods of propagating the fish. He
also states that it will mean saving
of about $1,000 year at least, as OAR
win will draw no extra pay, while a
game warden is entitled to salary of
$500 year and $1,000 for travelling
expenses. The appointment is effec-
tive from June IL, when all Washing
ton laws passed by the last legislature
went into effect.

HOME RULE BILL is PASSED
English Commons Scene of Fiery
DenunciatiOn.

London - The, house of commons
passed the second reading of the home
rule for Ireland bill without division,
an amendment by Mr.. Balfour for the
rejection of the measure having been
defeated previously by vote of 1858
to 270. The announcement of the fig
ures was received with cheering by
Liberals and Nationalist.
The debate was marked by fiery
declarations by the opposition speakers
who predicted home rule would result
in civil war in Ireland. Sir Edwards
Carson, the Irish Unionist leader,
said:
"For my part, 1 will continue to
support the Ulster men and will take
full responsibility for their resistance.
You may seize their homes, or send
troops, but you will not settle the
Irish question.
Lord Charles Beresford declared:
eff the government sends troops to
Ireland, I shall offer my services,
poor as they may be, and help my fell
low countrymen.

FAVOR NEW QUINCY DISTRICT
About One-Fifth of Territory Not
Yet Heard From.

Quincy-The returns from the irri-
cation district election here are in
complete, owing to lack of telephone
communication from a territory of
about 100000 acres, but the vote in
the remaining 100000 acres was 319
for the formation of the district and
only 43 against.
With the formation of the district
and the election of directors arrange
ments will be made for bond cleo
ton, the money to be used for the sur
vey of the project and other prelimin-
airy work. 1t is estimated that this
will cost about 100000 The candi-
dates in the lead for directors are
o. A. Cook, of Ephrata; A. J. Ter
nent, of Quincy; Joseph Robinson, of
Aurora Flat;, E. R. Huffman, of
Quincy, and F. D. Kredgley, of
Quincy. Three are to be elected.
The Quincy project may, after the
survey has been completed, cover ter
ritory $4,000 acres greater in extent
than that represented in the voting,
and the cost is estimated at about
$4O,000,000. The legislature at it's
last session passed a bill authorizing
the expenditure of this money if it is
ratified by the people of the state at
the next general election, but the bill
authorizes the governor and board to
have final authority in passing on the
feasibility of the project.

BOAT OVER RICKEY RAPIDS
Under Own Steam AlbatrOss Gains
Upper Columbia.

Kettle Falls-The steamer Albatross
was brought up through the Hickey
rapids last week by Captain Fred Nc
Dermott, on the Ferry county side of
the Columbia, close to shore. This
was accomplished with her own steam
without putting out any lines. The
captain gave the crew the order,
"Keep her hot and don't stop her, -
but after two-thirds of the distance
was accomplished the steam gauge
blew out and stop was forced. By
skilful maneuvering between two
enormous lodges of submerged rock, a
tie-up was made in safety until re-
pairs could be made. The whole dis
lance was about two miles. At some
points great waves and rollers from
the cataract above were encountered,
which added to the peril of the trip.
Two years ago this month Captain
McDermott took steamer down these
same rapids on the east side of the
river, a perilous trip, in which his
wife and child accompanied him.. The
Albatross is owned by William Cope
land and will be used on the Columbia
between the rapids and falls, as we'll
as in crossing the river while ferries
are tied up by the high water.

HELP CLARK COUNTY ROADS
Score of Miles Of Pacific Highway
to Be Built This Year.

Olympia $40, 900 of the $119,-
900 allowed by the last legislature
for work on the Pacific highway be-
tween Pierce county and the Columbia
river be spent on the road in Clark
county between Woodland and La
Center, is an instruction given by the
State Highway Board to Highway
Commissioner Roberts.
1t also was agreed to spend $50, 900
in Cowlitz county (section not desig-
nated) and $4,000 in Lewis county
(section not designated). This leaves
$4,000 reserve to be used where need
ed.
Commissioner Roberts says he ex-
poets to have about 20 miles of the
Pacific highway between Vancouver
and Blaine built this year and while
this will clear up many bad spots, he
says, it will not make it first--class
highway by any means. 1t is pro-
posed to fix up the worst places first.
C. F. Healy, who located the Mil
waukee line west of the Cascades, has
been engaged to make an immediate
reconnaissance of the Snoqualmie Pass
road, while H. J. Doolittle, of Spo-
kane, will survey the Sunset highway.
The first contract to be let by the
Highway board out of the money ap-
propriated by the last legislature will
be for five miles east of Walla Walla.

JAPAN TO STAND ON TREATY
Fourteenth Amendment Omitted
From Land Bill Protest.

Tokio-It is learned that Japan has
decided to omit from the text of its
rejoinder to the American govern
ment's reply to the protest against the
California alien land law the conten-
ton that it violates the 18th amend
ment, and leave this point for discus
sion between Viscount Chinda, the
Japanese ambassador at Washington,
and Secretary of State Bryan.
The reason for this decision was the
conviction that Japan's case as ma
ton would be stronger if based on the
contention that the land bill violates
the treaty. The idea here is that the
14th amendment, as we'll as the con-
stitutional prohibition against states
passing laws impairing obligation con-
tracts, might eventually be the basis
of suits brought by japanese as indi-
viduals.

WILD RIDE ON RUNAWAY CAR
Brakeman Makes IS Miles Per
Hour, But Sticks to Post.

Medford, Or. - With his lantern
swinging in brave attempt to warn
the people, j. A. Fowler, an Ashland
yard man, came through Medford
Thursday night at Is miles an hour on
top of runaway freight car. With
the wires busy clearing the right of
way, switch engine in charge of
Engineer Adams in wild pursuit and a
doctor motoring to the scene of the
expected tragedy, the car by miracle
escaped collision with freight train
at Central Point, as it fastened into a
siding safely, and made the sharp
curves at Gold Ray and finally came to
a stop one mile this side of Gold Hill.
Some idea of the speed of the runa-
way car may be had from the fact that
the car slipped loose from the train
at Ashland at 9 80 and reached Med
ford, a distance of IL miles, down
grade, at 1901, run Of II minutes,
or an average of IS miles an hour.
The pursuing engine made the dis
lance in Is minutes, half of the sched-
ule time, but lost sight of the runaway
at Talent.
Fowler was pretty we'll shaken up
by his experience, but said he was too
busy swinging his lantern and keeping
his balance to think much about his
danger.

LAND IN NEED OF LABORERS
Brazilian Minister Tells of Deals
With Japanese Workers.

Washington, D. CA state dinner
by Secretary Bryan to DR.. Lauro Null
Ter. Brazilian minister of foreign
affairs, here on special mission,
closed a busy day of entertainment
and sightseeing for the visitor.
DR.. Muller talked with some callers
through his interpreter, about the i'm
migration of japanese to Brazil.
"Some thousands of japanese are
coming into Sac Paulo, state of Bra
zil, for agricultural purposes, but it is
not true that colonization agreements
have been entered into between Japan
and Brazil as governments" he said.
"In Brazil we are in the same posi-
ton as we were so years ago, the
same position that your state of Cali
fornia was in at that time-we need
population. The lands in Sac Paulo
state, into which the Japanese are
coming, are low lands, near the sea,
good for the production of rice, but
the people of Brazil will not go into
them.
"Individual owners in that state,
through the state of Sac Paulo, made
an agreement with an immigration
concern in Japan to bring us a few
thousand laborers to grow rice there,
laborers such as the United States has
engaged in the digging of the Panama
canal.
eve have not encouraged the Jap
anese to emigrate to our country. For
years we have subsidized immigration,
but never the immigration of Jap
anese. We need labor and immigra-
ton, however, and if the question of
encroachment by japanese should ever
come up in our country we would be
able to deal with it without the diff
Guilty experienced by the United States
and California, for in Brazil we have
unity of legislation.
'The laws Of the states are alike in
Brazil and the central government
watches over questions like that.
