An exchange makes the state
ment that there seems to be deep
antipathy among Mexicans
against Americans, and suggests
that steps be taken to find out the
root of the difficulty with a view
TO having it settled.
The trouble is not hard to find.
as it consists entirely OF race
prejudice. In the southern coun-
try a Mexican is known TO an
American as "greaser, while
the latter retaliates by calling the
white man gringo." The Ameri-
can looks upon Mexicans as an
inferior race, which is resented by
the latter in no uncertain manner.
But while the Mexican people can
and do assimilate with Chinese,
laps. Indians and negroes, thereby
showing their inferiority, they do
not mix with the Americans.
This antipathy is born in the
blood and can never be overcome.
The Mexican does not trust a
white man, especially an Ameri-
can, will not learn his language,
does not want him or his pro-
gressive ideas in the country. and
is satisfied to live and die as did
his forefathers. They have never
invited Americans to their coun-
try, and il they persist in going
there on missions OF conquest and
money-getting, they will receive

PEACE IN MEXICO CD

What might have been expect
ed with the fall of Madero 5 gov
eminent in Mexico has happened.
/ Madero has been foully murdered.
The story is that while he was
being conveyed to the prison land
this was being done about mid
night band of Madero sympa-
thizers tried to free him and in the
melee he was shot to death along
with the Nice-President No
American who is familiar with
the ways OF the Mexican will
doubt for a minute that Madero
was murdered in cold blood be
fore he was started for the prison
Nobody but these two men were
injured in any way and 1t was
found that Madero was shot i'll the
back OF the head, from which po-
sition Mexican usually makes
his attack.
Madero was too lenient with his
enemies during his adminiStra-
ton. He allowed former Presi-
dent Diaz to leave the country and
he failed to execute Felix DiaZ and
some of his officers when he had il
in his power to do so. What dii-
ference when the half-breed Diaz
gained the upper hand. No mercy
was shown then to Madero SYM
pathizers; instead 05 of them were
lined up against dobe wall and
shot. This is the only kind OF
government that has ever succeed
ed for long in Mexico-that OF
killing those who did not agree
with the plans OF those in power.
1t is said that the rule OF Diaz
is going to restore order in Mex
leo. 1t may for awhile, until Diaz
and his followers can enrich
themselves at the expense OF the
poems OF the country. Then will
come another revolution as Ger
tain as night follows day.
The only way that permanent
peace can come to the benighttd
people OF Mexico will be for Uncle
Sam TO give it to them; educate
them and COLOMBO the country
The Mexican would be a thousand
times better off under a govern
ment such as this country Wo1l.l
give him and the country, which
is rich in many resources, would
become a land OF peace and plenty
with a happiness and prosperity
that but few MexicanS have ever
vet enjoyed

WHY NOT BETS !?


The potato situation in lyon
county is lamentable. There were
heavy crops last fall and the tn
bers were of superior quality,
much attention having been given
to the eradication of the eel
worm, which had been found to
exist in a few fields only. But
the supply OF potatoes has been
greater than the demand and the
price has fallen to figure that
has proved disastrous to the raiser
in this valley. In fact, it has put
some land leasers who grew po-
tatoes out of commission. 1t is
yet too early to tell anything
about what may happen with
big potato crop this year. But
there is proposition that can be
figured on to nicely, and this be-
cause there is fixed market that
will never greatly fluctuate. This
is the culture of the sugar beet.
1t has been demonstrated what
can be done in this line in this
valley, and it would not take long
for the farmer to learn the beet
business thoroughly. There would
never be a lack OF market for the
beet. 1t may not be as great
revenue producer from a certain
amount OF land as potatoes in GER
tain years. but in the long run the
farmer, once established in the
beet-raising business, with suffi-
cient land for rotation of crops
yearly, would probably make
fully as much money as the pota
to-raiser There are a combina-
ton OF industries that could be
carried on by the beet-raiser that
would work in we'll with beet
raising. The ensilage obtained
from the beet tops and runt beets
is the finest kind OF fodder for
mich COWS. The beet grower
could keep a number OF cows to
furnish cream to the creamery and
milk to a small number of pigs
The cows would bring a greater
revenue for cream when fed this
ensilage and the pulp, which could
be returned from the factory at
small cost. With separator at
his home the farmer could turn
the warm, clean milk from the
separator into his pigs, which
would make more rapid and gen
erous growth than if fed cold or
Soured milk. Thus he would have
a sort of endless chain OF revenue
producing industries - be e I 5,
cream and hogs-which would
undoubtedly yield a much greater
income than the one industry OF
pOtatO-raiSinS.
There is an excellent oppOr-
tunity to try out the beet theory
this season. The sugar factory
people at Fallon will lend every
aid possible, and ii acreage
enough can be secured here will
put a competent man in here to
supervise the work OF planting.
cultivating and harvesting the
crop, thereby teaching the farmer
so he can go ahead on his own
hook in the future. Why not try
the business when the opportunity
and conditions are so favorable?

GIVE US NEW SCHOOL.

There will be introduced in the
legislature next week bill to al
low Lyon county to issue $4,000
bonds for a new high school build
ing. There is no doubt that
building to cost this much for
construction, equipping, etc, Is
NECESSARY. The present building
is totally INADEQUATE for the work
required, and if another cheap
building is constructed for less
figure than $4,000 it will be but
a few wears before another bond
issuew i'll be asked for to again
enlarge the building. 1t never
pays to build cheap and made
quate structures for permanent
business. The high school is, and
has been a splendid institution for
Lyon county. 1t has given many
a Lyon county boy and girl a
chance to get a high school edn-
cation who would have gone with
out it had we no school within our
boundary lines. 1t has done much
to bring people to our county and
has advertised us to the outside
world as progressive, who are in
favor of higher education.
When you stop to think OF it
$4,000 is no great sum OF money
for such an institution. Lyon
county has an assessment roll OF
over S5,OOO,00O, and the railroads
traversing her territory pay on
half of this valuation, leaving
only So. 100000 valuation on which
to levy taxes outside OF the rail
road property a bond issue runs
for term OF years and the coun-
ty is growing and accommodating
property each year, so that the
rate OF taxes will soon be de
creased instead OF increased.
The Times is sorry to see any
opposition to $4,000 bond issue
for a new high school, especially
coming from source which tried
to prevent any high school being
built here in the first place. The
opposition, coming from such i
source, ought not to have much
weight with the Lyon county rep
resentatives in the legislature.
There are those, we know, who
are only too willing to oppose any
thing that might be for the bet
terment of Yerington, and those
who have lingering idea that the
high school may be located some
where else in the county at some
distant day, provided, they can
prevent a good, large and commo-
dious building from being con-
structed now-one that will for
ever prevent its removal from the
present location. To those people
Lyon county owes all the dissen-
sion that has been created for the
past four years. II anybody
thinks they are going to quit
fighting Yerington and extend the
olive branch they are mistaken.
They have no argument for a
cheap school house and equipment
except that it is not to be built
somewhere besides on the pres
ent site. We hope our represent
atives will stand squarely for the
bill as introduced, irrespective of
the comments or advice of those
who have always been opposed
to real advancement in the build
ing up of a good educational sys-
TEN, or anything else, in the
county.

BETTER WATCH YOUR MONEY
DANGEROUS COUNTERFEIT FIVE
DOLLAR BILL is OUT.
Its Perfection Has Even Fooled the
Currency Sharps in the Govern
ment's Treasury Department.

WASHINGTON, D. C.-Alarmed
were officials of the United States
treasury today upon the discovery of
remarkable counterfeit S. silver
certificate, the most dangerous imi-
tation of American currency since the
famous Monroe head" 500 bill,
which was suppressed in 1908.
So nearly perfect is this spurious
note that officials of the cash room
of the treasury declared it was gen
uine, and unswervingly held TO their
belief that it was a washed note.
Herman Moran, assistant chief of the
United States secret service, detected
slight variations from the original,
however, and stamped it unqualified
ly as a counterfeit.
The note is so dangerous that it
was brought to the personal attention
of Secretary MacVeagh and Robert O..
Bailey. assistant secretary of the
treasury.
In the case OIL Jn0 N1OuI VIC hSdu
bill the whole issue was withdrawn
from circulation because of the dan
gerous imitation. It will hardly be
practicable to resort to this precau-
ton in connection with the new coun-
terfeit, because the S. Indian head
silver certificate is so generally in
circulation.
The counterfeit was discovered in
New York city, where two specimens
were obtained by the secret service.
Treasury officials have undertaken to
investigate the extent Of it's circula-
ton, which as yet is unknown.
Widespread warnings to the public
were issued today by w. j. Flynn,
chief of the secret service. The i'm
perfections of the note are detachable
only to the eye of an expert with the
aid of a glass. Apparently it is print
ed on two pieces of paper between
which silk threads have been distr1b-
uted. The number of the specimen
which reached secret service head
quarters is E 69421159.

IF MRS. KING is HANGED
Twill Be Mighty Unpleasant for the
Man Who Is Then the Governor.
Susan Eberhart's Execution.

If Mrs. James King, whose revolt
ing story of the murder of her hus-
band has shocked the state, is SEN
fenced to hang the governor of Geor-
gia, whoever he may be at that date,
is going to have mighty unpleasant
time of it, no matter how learned IN
the law he may be, no matter how
conscientious he may be. The diem
ma he will find himself in arises
from the fact that the law of Geor-
gia makes no distinction in sex as to
the punishment to be melted out to
murderers, but that sentiment in the
state is widely opposed to the hang
ing of woman, and especially of
white woman.
The last woman hanged in Georgia
was Miss Susan Eberhart, a white wo-
man convicted of murder in Webster
county in 1874. After the supreme
court had followed the trial judge in
refusing to find any justification or
ground for amelioration of the death
penalty the then Governor James M.
Smith refused to interfere with the
execution.
The execution was made a politi-
cal issue in the next campaign for
governor, in which Governor Smith
was not reelected.

WASHINGTON, d. C.-The war de-
partment has posted this advertise
ment:
Wanted-By early spring 20
goats, biilies and nannies, at Fort
Washington. Goats must be strong
and healthy.
Fort Washington, located near the
Potomac river, not far from here, is
the happy breeding and hunting
grounds for the notwithstanding mos
quito. 1t requires much quinine to
keep the soldiers fit. 1t is believed
herd of goats will bring about bet
ter conditions. This belief is based
upon the fact that the goat will eat
up the grass and shrubs that make
breeding places for the mosquitoes,
also because of the antipathy the lit
tie insect has for pungent odors.
1t is argued by leaders of the
movement to fight the mosquitoes
with goats that livery stablemen
keep goats to drive away heas and
other vermin, and that no animal
clears thicket as rapidly and thor
oughly as goat.
A bunch of pedigreed angora goats
died from poison ivy eaten near Fort
Washington last year Nothing short
of cannon ball can kill an old-time
goat-the sort the war department
wants.

THE SMITH CABINET RUMOR
1T is AGAIN REPORTED THAT
GEORGIAN Is TO GET A PLACE.
President Has Made No Selection,
But Report That Georgia Senator
Will Be Favored Won't Down.

WASHINGTON, D. C.-That Sena-
tor Hoke Smith may occupy a place
in the Wilson cabinet is considered
somewhat more than a possibility in
this city today by those most accu-
rately judging the cabinet situation.
1t is known here beyond the shadow
of doubt, however, that the presi-
dent-elect has not definitely determin-
ed as yet the makeup of his official
family.
1t is said, too, that Senator Smith
will accept if the place is rendered
him. Besides being an original Will
son man Senator Smith is of the
political views and sympathies of Mr..
Wilson, who has announced his in
tention of surrounding himself with
men who stand for the same radical
legislation that he does.
Senator Smiths cabinet expert
ence and his record as secretary of
the interior under Cleveland make
him one of the most eligible men in
the country, according to the convic-
ton of those here saying today that
Mr.. Smith will be chosen. The in
terror department. is the berth assign
eli him by these.

Yesterday at 1875 o'clock for Eu-
faula to take a passenger run from
that place to Ozark, Ala, the Oldest
man doing freight or passenger SER
vice out of Macon on the Central OF
Georgia was transferred. Mr. Dough-

that time he has been a conductor,
mostly on freight trains.

less friends who regretted to see him
leave Macon.
For the past As years Conductor
Dougherty has been operating a
freight train on the Southwestern di-

MUST CARRY THEIR OWN CUP
Central Gives Notice That After Jan.
18th Rule Regarding Drinking
ON Trains Will Be Enforced.

If they quench their thirst the
travelling public who patronize the
Central railroad will carry individual
drinking cups when they ride this
good year of 1918. This requirement
will become effective on and after
January 18th according to announce
ment.
All cups and glasses now in depot
waiting rooms and on passenger
trains will be removed.
This order is being printed in cir
cular form to be disseminated over
the lines to officials whose duty it
will be to carry out the order.
The action follows an order issued
by the secretary of the treasury car
rying out the provision of public
health act passed some time ago, at
which time its provisions were noted
in the press.
The railroads will continue to fur
nish the ice water in coolers, as it
now does for the convenience of its
patrons, but no cups will be sup
piled, and those who desire to use
the water will have to provide them
selves with cups.
1t is presumed that convenien
arrangement will be suggested b.
which the passengers who do not care
to carry their own cups can obtair
substitutes on the train in the form
of paper cups sold by newsboys.

WANTS BOIL WEEvIL EXPERT
is ASKED TO STA
TION ONE IN GEORGIA.
EntomoIogist Worsham Says the Cot
ton Pest Is Expected to Reach
the State Next Fall.


ATLANTA.-On a recent visit to
Washington on official business State
Entomologist Lee Worsham conferr-
ed with the authorities there relative
to establishing a government station
and expert in this state next year in
readiness for the coming of the boil
weevil.
AS there will probably be many
changes in the national department
with the incoming administration it
is Mr.. Worshams intention to press
this matter more urgently after the
administration changes.
The probabilities now are that the
weevil will just about cross the Ala
bama line into Georgia in its disper-
sion next fall. 1t is within two eoun-
ties of the border, and at the normal
speed travelled will get across the line
for the first time. OF course there
will be little or no damage from 1t
next year in this state, but as it gets
a foothold in the state, and from that
time on, it will be a big problem.
With a station and government ex-
pert in Georgia Mr.. Worsham be-
lieves much more effectual work can
be done in checking the inroads OF
the pest and in educating the farm
ers how to produce cotton in spite
of if
