NATIONAL GUARD CONTINUE
 MAKING PREPARATIONS
All Companies Ordered to Recruit to Full Strength of 100 Men. Nor nal Strength Has Been
 Only Fifty Eight.

Little Rock, April 29.-Although no intimation has been received by the headquarters of the Arkansas Nation al Guard that there is any probability of the states military organization being called for service in Mexico, Adjt. Gen. England says that pre- parations are being carried on as ac- lively as though the call were expect ed at any moment.
 Several days ago he sent orders to all company commanders to recruit their companies to their full strength of 10S men. The normal strength has been only 5S. Many of the cap tains are reporting rapid progress in the enlistng of men, and in a short time it is expected that the full strength of the two regiments will be in readiness for possible call.
 The present emergency is demon strating the necessity of some provis- ion by the state government for the equipment and maintenance of the National Guard. The liberal funds coming from the national government are being used to the best advantage, but that is not enough to insure the maximum of efficiency. The practi cal unpreparedness of the Guard when the Mexican war scare started, so far as active field duty is concerned, has provided an argument that will be used at the next session of the Legis lature to secure state support for the organization.

CITIZENS MEETING AT
 THE COURT HOUSE
Discuss High School Question. Funds For Maintaining Institution are Inadequate. Mass Meet
 ing Convention Called

Last night about forty citizens at tended the mass meeting at the court house to discuss the school situation in Prescott. The school board laid before the meeting a financial state ment of the district, by which it was shown that the revenue of the dis trict, excluding tuition at the high school and the amount collected from the subscribers to the building fund amounted to about $11 300.
 The total expense of the district in- cluding maturing bonds, interest and the expense of the three schools amounts annually to about s14,OOO.
 Many of the subscribers to the building fund have paid no part of their subscriptions, and those who have paid the board showed, were now saying that they would pay no more unless all were treated alike, and all required to pay.
 The effect of this will be to close the high school Those present voted against closing the school; but no sug- gestion was made that would aid the board in obtaining the money to keep it going. Some suggested that all be asked to pay half of the total ten years subscription in cash and be re- leased from the balance. Others ob- jected to this unless all would pay. So the city is confronted with the problem of maintaining a school sys- tenn that costs S14000 on $11 300 in cash.
 A mass meeting or convention was called to meet at the court house next Monday night at eight o'clock to nom mate three candidates for school di- rectors. Perhaps there may be fur ther discussion then.

PEACE AND WAR ARE
 STILL IN THE BALANCE
A. B. C. Env0ys Deliberate and War Preparations Continue. U. S. Will Propose Huerta to
 Quit Rule in Mexico

Washington, April 28.-The propo- sals of Huerta and the United States, with suggestions from Carranza and Gen. Zapata, will be laid before Am hassador De Gama of Brazil, Minis ter Naon of Argentina and Minister Suarez of Chile, the peace mediators at the meeting tomorrow morning at 10 o'clock. Their first step toward settlement of the crisis, it was learn ed today, will be an attempted ar engagement of an armed truce, with strict maintenance of the status quo. This proposal is favorably regarded by President Wilson and will form a basis for further negotiations.
 The proposals of the United States, as outlined here tonight, include the surrender of the government by Huerta, with no withdraw of the military forces of the United States from Mexico until after an election. It is expected that Huerta will meet the demand that he abdicate by sug- gesting the delegation of his power to a man of his own choosing. Agents of Argentina, Brazil, Chile and Great Britain are said already to be at work to effect means of running the gov ernment, provided Huerta surrenders, while Secretary Bryan is actively working to bring the Villa govern ment into line.
