came to the District Attorney.
The second. who was dressed in silk

cocaine into her windows in a most dis
concerting way. II the wind was IN the

compass. The wind could find no quarter
where there was not a neighbor armed
with cocaine. If the District Attorney
did not take the matter up she was going
to the federal authorities and then 1t
would be too late.
The third woman. who saw Mr. Leo and
Mr. Bozzo wanted to know II there was
not some law which would compel her
husband to cease avoiding her society.

extreme measures. He never came In

LOST SECTION
Of \. D. LAND

Hettinger, N. D., July %. TO abso
lutely lose section of land valued Ut
several thousand dollars as a result OF
trade with parties who are cleve,
dealers, was the experience Of H. B
Halvorson Of this city. In return TO,
his land he was given a bill Of sale
of 200 horses which he was to gathe,
on the range in Coconino county, Ari
IONA. This he has found he is unable
to do, consequently he has lost his
whole section Of land.
Halvorson went to Minneapolis
where he traded half section of land
for 100 head Of horses, which he in
tended to ship to Miles City. He then
went to Des Moines where he made a
similar deal for another herd. When
he arrived in Arizona he was told that
his bill of sale was worthless as it
was doubtful if these horses were in
that country. He also found that if
would be impossible to round up his
herd because of the mountainous coun'
try, as others who had been similarly
swindled ahead of him, had failed IN
that attempt.
Halvorson gathered considerable evi'
poets to prosecute the swindlers.

CAREFUL.

In treading the vicinity Of the Mex
lean buzz saw, congress is lurking in
neighborhood full Of pitfalls and
trap guns.
There are behind the. agitation for
action toward Mexico powerful ones
selfishly interested and willing to have
the nation spend lives and money and
risk it's hoor in ther behalf.
Recognizing the Huerta govern
ment, merely de facto government
stained with blood and treachery, is
not only unthinkable, but it would be
folly because there is no telling
whether that government would sur
vive long enough to have message
of recognition reach it.
Armed action to protect Americans
il Mexico and American property in
terests there, though an idea appeal
ing strongly to unthinking patriotism,
is thing to be done only as a last
resort, and very carefully.
Senators Fall, Lodge and others
would have us fall upon Mexico forth
with, and probably before we got
through they'd like us to annex that
country and assume its management.
! Senators Bacon and Works are
wiser in urging caution.
| American citizens still in Mexico are
in place of danger, and they have
known it for some time. By remaining
there they are voluntarily assuming
the risk, unless they are permanent
residents there who cannot get away.
Still, wanton outrages against Ameri-
cans, even in these circumstances,
could not be tolerated.
AS to property interests in Mexico,
no lives and little money should be
spent in their protection. Americans
in distress in foreign lands appeal to
patriotism. American dollars invest
ed in foreign lands do not make any
such appeal. It ought to be und.r-
stood, whether it is or not, that Ameri-
cans who make investments in other
countries do so at their own risk, and
cannot call upon the national resources
to collect their bills OF to protect them
against the perils Of politics that takes
