WHAT WILL HE DO?

General Carranza, head of the Mex
fcan constitutionalists having reached
the capital of the southern republic,
largely through the assistance of the
United States by its refusal to rec
ornize Huerta and the raising of the
embargo on arms, it remains to be
seen what will be his attitude toward
this country. Already he is being
urged by numerous constitutionalists
20 make insolent demands upon the
United States. that the insult to
Mexico in the occupation of Vera
Cruz by American troops may in a
measure be atoned for. His advisers
are men who are reported to have
shouted publicly: Death to Ameri-

SALMON INDUSTRY
ALMOST RUINED
AN EXPERT TELLS CONGRESS
THE BIG FISH MUST HAVE
PROTECTION

Portland, Ore, Aug. 21.-The sal
mon industry in the Columbia river
will be ruined unless drastic action
is taken to protect the fish, H. M.
Lornsten, an Astoria, Ore, fisherman,
testified today before the federal in
dustrial relations commission.
THE Columbia river is the only
strea min the country on which pro-
tective laws are carried out on de-
structive lines" he said. Fishing
below tide water and with stationary
appliances are the two principal
abuses that should be corrected" he
continued. The annual salmon catch
from the stream should be about
100000 pounds. The present yield is
about 100000 pounds. If proper pro-
lection were thrown around the fish
the yield would double in five years y
Mr. Lornsten said the statutes op-
Grated against the individual fisher
men for the benefit of trappers, sein-
ers and others with big interests
along the stream.
Certainly this situation is worth
the most searching investigation, -
Chairman Walsh said.
Las Vegas optic., 1914-08-21

cans"
Carranza's attitude toward the Unit
ed states as provisional president OF
Mexico should at least be friendly.
VIII it?
There arises the question, too, as
to how long the constitutionalist chief
viii be able to preserve peace and
tranquility in the battletorn republic.
Everybody wishes him success, but
there are few who believe he will at
tain 1t. Just as soon as Carranza be-
gins the handing out of political pat
ronage and an election is held, it is
predicted that the disappointed of
ficeseekers will begin new revolu-
tfon.
Here's hoping Carranza can hold
down his new job, for peace and tran
guilty in Mexico, even if preserved
at the point of the sword, is some
thing devoutly to be desired

A BITTER Fight
FOR OFFICIAL
Plum
SANTA FE DESPAlRS OF EVER
GETTING ITS NEW POST
MASTER

Santa Fe, Aug. 21.-That a political
battle is being fought today in Wash
ington over the Santa Fe postmaster
ship is the well founded rumor circu-
lated in democratic political circles.
1t appears that the nomination of
Adolph P. Hill for state corporation
commissioner and his withdrawal
from the race for Santa Fe's postmas-
tership has found several Barhses will
ling to accept the honor, One of the
most formidable candidates now in
the race is said to be Romulo Marti-
nez, of Upper Palace avenue. He was
former sheriff of tins county and for
mer United states marshal He owns
extensive business interests here. He
is regarded as one of the democratic
war horses and would, in the opinion
of many democrats, take precedence'
over a number of the younger demo
Gratis who have signified their willing
ness to accept the $2,5OO office.
It is understood, however, that Ar
thur Seligman, the Santa Fe county
democratic leader, has been in Wash
ington and has talked to Congressman
Harvey B. PERCUSSION in the interest
Of his brother, James L. Seligman. Mr..
Seligman denied only mildly today
that he had fixed up Hills nomina-
tion" for corporation commissioner to
clear the track for Jim" arthur
has probably put Jim over already
was the way one prominent democrat
in the capitol described the situation.
1t is generally believed that the
fight has narrowed itself down to
James Seligman and Romulo Mar
tinez and it is said the telegraph
wires have been kept hot today with
messages to Mr.. FERGUSON. 1t is be
lieved that Mr.. FERGUSON can decide
