laps IN MEXICO.

If circumstances shall arise later
that will compel the United States tc
adopt armed Intervention in the Next
can trouble we may have to see oul
soldiers killed with the very guns and
other munitions of war the executive
order from Washington permitted the
rebels to purchase in our markets and
take across the border to use in their
present struggle with Huerta S
forces. We now have the i'll will of
both factions or all factions in Mexico
and in case of Intervention they would
all undoubtedly unite to fight the
S'gringoes as they call Americans.
Considerable apprehension is also felt
by American residents in Mexico over
the hdndreds of Japanese that have
suddenly appeared and taken up their
residence in saristocratic districts in
the City of Mexico. They are not
seeking work or engaging in business,
but appear we'll provided with money
and take a deep. interest in all things
pertaining to the army. One theory
is that they are officers of the
Mikado's army, who have come to
assist in developing the fighting
efficiency of Mexico's military re-
/ sources, in anticipation of possible
conflict between that country and the
United States.
The recent treaty between the
United States and Japan, signed by
Secretary Bryan and Baron Chinda,
the Japanese ambassador. permits the
'Japs to establish a colony at Magda-
lena Bay. on the western coast of
Mexico What do they want it for :
The most plausible inference that it
is wanted as a near base of supplies
for the japanese army and navy in
case trouble should later come be-
tween that nation and the United
States. as rumor so persistently in
dictates there may be. Many fear that
sthe administration has made grave
mistake in granting this. Magdalena
concession. for in spite of the fact
that the United States was the friend
sOf Japan in its war with, Russia and
always before and since. yet the latin
and oriental races are so constituted
that they all seem to misunderstood
@the patient and peaceful attitude of
this country and always think they
see some Interior motive behind every
thing we do. Above all else the
oriental mind is suspicious and
treacherous in its feeling toward the
white races.

William Essman, who until hi
resignation was recently demanded
by Gov. McGovern, was superin
tendent of public property in the
capitol at Madison. 1t is claimed
now that he has gotten away with
$1,000 Or more of the state money
and property and that be WAS up tu
all kinds of questionable practices.
Three hundred and eleven copies of
the revised statutes were sent out
under his personal direction, it is
said, a large number of them, being
sent free to friends and the checks
received for the paid copies turned
into Essman's private bank account.
Ht is also charged that he bought 800
worth of whiskey in Milwaukee which
was billed and paid for by the state
as litnia water, while a supply of
'silverware and blankets purchased,
'ostensibly "for use at the executive
mansion were found in boxes in the
superintendent room after his dis.

SiIOs $50 and Up.

Gus Lundgren, manager OF the
Long-Bell yard in this city, tells
us he has 'em all skinned on the
silo proposition this year. He
says he can sell silos from $50 up.
He has the agency for the Tulsa,
Unadilla, Tung-Lok, Cement and
Common Sense kinds, and Can
furnish them in any and all
sizes.
Now is the time to figure with
him. He is going to be known
as ''Silo Gus" before the summer
is over. He says he can sell a
fine 75-ton silo for 500. Just
think of that, you fellows who
are keeping a good bunch OF
COWS. Or if you want bigger
ones, he can furnish them, too.
No matter how good a crop
you may have this year, build a
silo. Give your stock rich green
feed next winter-get 100 per cent
feeding value out of everything
you put in the silo. You know
it will pay. If you doubt it, ask
the fellows who are feeding Sic
lage this winter.

The Real Patterson Milling Co.,
of Coffeyville, one of the biggest
grain buyers In Kansas has sent
the following statement to al its
agents and dealers: I'VE notice
in the newspapers that the for
eign countries which are now at
war, are in the midst of their
wheat harvest and 4 great many
men are being called from the
fields to fight. This will make
it difficult to save the present
crop, and will also curtail the
acreage put in this fall, because
of lack of labor. To M this
looks like a reduced crop of
wheat in the countries involved,
for next year, and we believe the
farmers in this country should
make preparations at once to put
as big an acreage of wheat as
possible, so as to be prepared to
meet the foreign demand for our
wheat next year. All the land
now in corn on the upland and
much that is in kafir and fete.
