United Press Dispatch.
Vera Cruz, Mex, May 12.-So
imminent is the fall of Mexico
that the three representatives of
the government now en- route to
Niagara Falls with their fami-
lies are not only secretly delight
ed to leave the dangers of the

ed he will flee here after the de-
vastation of Mexico City sets in
and with his most loyal regi-
nent expects to hold out against

HUERTA'S POLICY
OF EVASION
May Force United States To
Change Its Peaceful
Policy.
United Press Dispatch.

Washington, D. c., May IL. -
Quibbling and evasion by Huer-
ia continue to threaten to force
the United States to change its
peaceful policy and assume one
of force and war. Huerta's atti-
tude and policy of piling up pet
ty protests against the United
States are regarded here as indi-
eating that he is not serious in
the plans of participating in the
mediation conferences.
Following a conference of the
General Army Staff Secretary of
War Garrison stated that the en-
tire chartered transport fleet
could be loaded in 48 hours and a
warship convoy arranged to car
ry the troop to a Mexican port.
President Wilson conferred
with Nelson O'Shaughnessy and
Sec. Bryan. The former Charge
said that the reports that he had
received his passports before
Charge Algara demanded his at
Washington were untrue.
The cabinet at it's meeting con-
sidered the case of Consul Sill
man now imprisoned at Saltillo
and although Huerta promised
the release of Silliman and his
transfer to the capital, the adj
ministration decided that unless
Silliman personally reports his
own safety, the President will
soon refer the matter to the me-
diators for settlement.

good things this week. The minstrel
troupe left the population with their
faces almost out of Joint from excess
sive laughter, and that dose of jollity
is to be followed up this Friday even
ing and tomorrow night by the Prov

boards at the Orpheum. The Provine
people present different order of en-
tcrtainment from that provided by the
colored fun makers, but the Provine
entertainment will be none the less
pleasing, especially to those who en-
Joy high-class music and acting. The
head liner of the Provine troupe is
Baby Orphea, little tot of tender

as vocalist and actor, taking the
house by storm wherever she appears.
The adult members of the company
are artists in their line, and the COM
bined program is one that can not
fail to please and satisfy everybody.
The numbers are made up of songs,
vaudeville turns and funny skits. The
company has been making tour Of

IMPORTANT

The meetings called at Oroville
Tuesday afternoon, December ~, ana
az Tonasket Wednesday afternoon, De-
cember 49, are the most important
since the irrigation districts were
formed and should be attended by
every person owning land under the
proposed ditch and every business
man doing business within the terri
tory that will be directly affected by
the construction or failure to con-
stluct the ditch. Attendance at one or
the other of these meetings is duty
that each individual owes to himself
and to his community. If you do not
favor the proposal that is to be sub
mitted come and make your objections
known. They should be heard. If
you do favor the proposal come and
make the fact known and give your
reasons. Discussion is what is wanted.
Many ideas lead to wise conclusions,
and those who suggested the PROPOSE
ton have no pride of opinion that will
prevent them from receiving and &C
cepting any idea that is better than
they have advanced. In fact they de-
clared that is just what they want
most They want the help of every
other person in the district. They are
not promoting a pet hobby to advance
their own personal welfare. They are
seeking for means to interest every
body concerned in working together
to advance the highest and best inter
ests of the entire community. The
thing desired is practical, work
able, acceptable scheme for getting
water on the valley LANDS in the short
est possible time with the least cost
Those who have called this meeting
believe that they have the germ oil
such scheme. They are asking that
everyone affected come and help them
develop this scheme into a definite
well rounded and businesslike PROPOSE
ton and give it the united backing and
| undivided support necessary, ii it OF
| any other plan is to bring results. Re-
member the meeting dates and the
places and make it a point to be al
one or the other or both.
