PROTECTION Is ASKED
AGAINST CONsCRIPTION
(By a United Press Stan
Correspondent)

Mexico City, Nov. 24.-Scores of
Mexicans appealed to foreign diplo-
mats here today for protection
against conscription into President
Huertas army.
A remarkable feature of the case
was that most of the appeals came
from women whom the president IL
drafting into the service for duty
as cooks and nurses.
His conscription methods, though
primitive, are effective. Squads Of
soldiers are sent out to scour the
streets and ransack the cafes for
likely candidates, and whenever one
is seen, he or she Is impressed
straightaway into the service. There
are no formalities whatever.
Among the applicants for aid at
the United States embassy were an
aged woman and her two daughters,
all Of whom had been called on for
commissary duty.
Charge d'Affaires O'shaughnessy.
like the rest of the foreign diplomats
here, was compelled to tell these and
other applicants for protection that,
inasmuch as they were citizens Of
Mexico, he was powerless to do any
thing for them.
Reports were received today OF
two inconsequential battles between
federals and rebels.

DECLARE WAR ON COLDS

A crusade Of education which aims
that common colds may become un-
common within the next generation"
has been begun by prominent New

the "don'ts" which the doctors say
will prevent the annual visitation OF
the cold:
Don't sit in draughty car"
Don't sleep in hot rooms"
Don't avoid the fresh air"
Don't stun yourself at meal time.

To which we would add-when you
take a cold get rid OF II as quickly as

THE RIVER OF SLEEP.

There are curious isles in the River
of Sleep,
Curious isles without number
Wen visit them all as we leisurely
creek
Down the winding stream whose cur
rent is deep.
In our beautiful barge of slumber.
The very first isle in this wonderful
stream,
Quite close to the shore is lying.
And after a supper of cakes and
cream
We come to the Nightmare-Isle with
a scream,
And hurry away from it crying.
And next is the Island of Lullaby,
And every one there rejoices.
The winds are only a perfumed sigh
And the birds that sing in the tree
tops try
To initiate Mothers voices,
A little beyond is the Isle-of Dreams:
oh, that is the place to be straying
Everything there is just as it seems;
Dolls are real and sunshine CLEANS.
And no one calls us from playing.
And then we come to the drollest isle.
And the funniest sounds come pour
ing
Down from its borderlands once in
a while,
And we lean DER our barge and lis
ten and smile:
For that is the Isle of Snoring.
And the ve~y last isle in the river of
Sleep
Is the sunsh " Isle le-of-Waking
And we see it first with our eyes "a
peep,
And we give a yawn-then away we
leap,
The barge of SlumhAr forsaking.

PENDLETON,s NEEDS.

Despite the division of sentiment in
Pendleton in regard to the prosecu-
ton of the good work commenced by
the city council in street improve
ment much progress is being made
along this line which is attracting
much favorable public attention. While
ir some few instances it may work a
hardship on owners of property 1t
nevertheless adds an invaluable asset
to the town as a whole in that it adds
20 the general health in ridding the
main streets Of their daily accumula-
tion Of filth. No town of the size of
Pendleton can very well afford to lag
behind in such improvements. Mon
~ judiciausly spent in improving a
farm is not wasted. a good house and
good barn will go farther in selling
farm than deep soil. A man look

carefully the improvements and f

prove much stronger drawing card

What is needed in Pendleton at the
present time more than anything
else is a good hotel. The man who
pays dollar for a room expects ac
commodations. He has reason to ex-
pect a clean towel in his room and
clean bed to sleep in. The hotel ac-

There is no better asset for town

no delay on the part of the people
of Pendleton to see that this long felt
want is supplied.

Nothing but good can come from the

as the government acts

Extension. the rates charged
should be based on the
cost OF service. The raising of the
weight limit from II to 20 pounds by
Postmaster General Burleson will
serve a good purpose. What If It
does take two thirds of the express
company business away? Where did
any express company gain a divine
right to continue in business even
though a better system be found. The
stage coach and the OK team did not
stop the advent Of the railroad. Why
should an express monopoly be al

It is only necessary that the rates

The Mexican situation is a choice
legacy from the era of Dollar Diplo-

and that accomplished the overthrow
OF the constitutional government Of
Mexico and the subsequent murder of
Maiero. 1t is what started the pres
ent revolt and is at the bottom of the
turmoil and misery today.
There is evidently a sad state Of af-
fairs in Mexico. Life seems scarcely
safe anywhere and the federalists are
as irresponsible as the rebels whom
Wilson calls bandits This was shown
Saturday when federal soldiers at Jau-
rez shot an American immigration in
