Carbajal Successor

CarbaJal Is expected to bridge the
gap from the Huerta regime to a new
provisional administration controlled
by the Constitutionalist5. He has been
prominent In judicial circles, but not
active In politics, and is a man of con-
clilatory disposition, anxious for peace
in Mexico and not of the type likely
to offer military resistance to the ap-
preaching Constitutionalists
While CarbajaPs reputation as
man of fairness and Integrity is not
questioned by the Constitutionalists
they claim he is friendly with reac-
tionary interests in Mexico City and
emphatically deny his right to exer-
else executive power. Rafael Zuharan,
spokesman here for Gen. Carranza,
said tonight that as the Constitution
alists could not recognize Huerta thew
obviously could not recognize his ere.
alton. That some way win be found
to bring about transfer of power to
the Constitutionalists, however, was
confidently believed in government
circles tonight.
Carranza's Ambition
General Carranza, encouraged by the
unanimity with which his military
chiefs responded to his canvass as to
whether the plan of Guadalupe should
be modified intends to insist on putting
into operation that program which
provides for military conquest of
Mexico City and the esta blishment of
himself as President ad intrim while
elections are called. Strong influences
to which it is hoped, in some Diplomatic
quarters that the advice of the United
states may be added, are beginning to
manifest their dispteasure at such a
course. There are various countries,
among them the principal powers In
South America and Europe, who look
with grave apprehension upon the
possibility of military conquest of
the Mexican capital and an arbitrary
assumption of power without previous
guarantees to the populatce generally.
AT present a proposal is pending Initial
ed by the three South American media
tors, by which it was hoped that repre-
sentatives of Gen. Huerta and Gen. Car
rama would discuss terms of internal
peace at informal conferences The Con-
stitutionalists have not formally replied,
but official messages from Saltillo reveal
that Gen. Carranza is unwilling to talk
peace with any delegates representing
Huerta- 1t was to meet such a contin-
gency that the substitution Of Carbaial
was arranged.
Although Gen. Carranza has announced
his unwillingness to treat with Carbajal
1t is authortatively known that il such
an attitude is insisted on. strong intima-
tons of disapproval will proceed from
influential countries who are anxious to
see peace in Mexico and who will refuse

TIGHTENING AND FREES.

Sometime ago, it will be recall
ed, we startedan injury among
our readers to try to determine
the truth or falsity of the old
notion that locust trees are most
frequently struck by lightning,
and that beech trees are immune.
Replies Were received from 10
different people, scattered over
the country, but chiefly il this
county.The result are as follows:
Oak trees II Chestnut 16, sugar
NAPLES 2, locust 2, hemlock,
beech, walnut, wild cherry and
apple trees, each one time. 1t
appears that locust trees are
less liable than other kind of
trees, and chat the beech is not
entirely immune. The beech tree
reported struck was on Clear
Fork. Will our informant, whose
name has been, mislaid, please
say again, if he saw this tree,
and is sure that it was a beech.

OUGHT TO BE FORGOTTEN

The Times Dispatch has been
pub fishing for sometime a
column daily Of What was news
fifty years ago." The news"
had TO do entirely with happen
ings of the war, as printed daily
then in the Richmond Dispatch.
A correspondent, Mr.. Tyler
Of Duane. Virginia, to the
Times-Dispatch, has this to say:
Please excuse me for saying
that the column of fifty year
"reminiscences sadden me deeply
every day. We now are a great
world power, and the govern
ment is in control of the former
Confederate States. 1t is better
to forget these petty incidents
OF a bitter war than revive and
nurse them in our memories. To
be fair to you, | write from the
standpoint of a Northern man,
yet never in the army. | BOUGHT
a home here two years after
AppomattoX, married here, and
ll'my property and other in
terests are firmly intertwined
with Virginia and its welfare. Z"
We believe there are many
people in this country, north
and south, who will agree with
Mr.. Tyler. Why not forget it?
If there is anything many of us
would like to forget forever, it
is that fratricidal, bloody, and
in all respects unnecessary
war, with all the misery and
sorrow it entailed. 1t settled
many questions, of course, but
questions that might have so
easily been settled otherwise.
Why not drop. out reference to
1T now in every shape societies,
Cha rters and all the rest? Cur
towering, eternal monuments of
marble and stone are sufficient
memorials. They are silent and
bldodless. Let these speak. The
era Of brotherly-love and good
will is here. Why inject into the
tw ent ieth century kindness
recollGctions of one Of the great
est pieces of folly and, in many
respects foolhardiness, known to
the annals Of history? These
utterances will be considered
treasonble, perhaps, but never
theless-we sympathize with Mr..
Tyler.

APPLYING 1000 lbs. per acre of finely
ground Phosphate. The fourth ele
mlnt, Potassium, is already in the soil
In abundance.
When farmer improves the fertility
OF his lands he has been engaged in
the most remunerative business. To
illustrate: Fairly good land contains
about 1000 lbs. of the element Phos-
phorus per acre to depth of about
6T inches. Then when one ton of Phos-
plate carrying $50 lbs. Phosphorus
has been applied, the Phosphorus
content has been increased 20 per cent,
and If the land is worth 500 per acre
you have added S25 value TO the land,
ct a cost of about so per acre; and for
farming purposes, more than this has
been done; the cost of maintaining fer
tility at the rate of cents bushel
can be met, as well as cost of produc-
ing crops and paying taxes, then leav-
ing enough to pay interest on several
hundred dollars.
The average profit on money invest
ed in Phosphorus properly manipu-
lated Is 800 per cent per annum. Why
should any farmer hunt any individual
or corporation to lend money to when
he has the opportunity to advance it to
his own lands at at least 800 per cent
profit?
DR. Hopkins once recommended as
follows:
ITO enrich the soil, apply liberal
amounts of limestone. organic manures
and Phosphorus" That is, feed lime
and Phosphorus to the legumes, and
then feed the legumes to the corn We
believe that Thomas Jefferson once
said that among our Asronomists we
may expect to find our best people.
