TAMPIco AND ARMS EMBARGO
New York Tribune.)


The inchoate character of the adj
ministration's Mexican policy could
not be better illustrated than by the
half-lifted, half-enforced embargo on
the importation of arms and munitions
of war. After the custom house at
Vera Cruz was seized in order to pre-
vent the landing of the Pyiranga's
cargo, the shipment of arms and am
munition across the Texas border to
the Constitutionalist forces was in
formally stopped.
The country applauded as a wise
exercise of discretion the prohibition
laid on the trafice in military supplies
across our southern boundary line. 1t
is expected to applaud equally wink
ing at such traffic through Tampico ?
If the confidence of the administra-
ton in the friendly intentions of Car
rama and Villa has overcome all pre-
vious hesitations, it would be just and
reasonable to allow them to re6t and
re-equip not alone through Tampico,
but through Laredo and FL Paso.
Closing one door and leaving the
other open only shows indecision and
instability in a matter about which
there should be a definite and clear
state of mind.

DIFFERENCES IN SALARIES
RESPONSIBLE FOR HIGH TAX
Adams County Pays About Half as
Much as Does Canyon.

The Emmett Examiner has taken
the trouble to compare the salaries
paid in Canyon and Adams counties.
1t is shown that the Canyon county
salaries are nearly twice as large as
the Adams county salaries. The Ex-
aminer concludes that the salaries
have something to do with high taxes.
They probably do, and it is also prob
able that the county offices are run
on basis compassionate with the size
OF the salaries. We quote from the
Emmett paper:
There is no question but that our
county commissioners should be sew
erely censured fer the action taken in
establishing the salaries of various
county officers, when we see what is
being paid the same officials in other
counties of the state. The Question of
taxes is one of Importance in this
county and we disapprove of the &C
ton of the board in this matter. The
following shows the salary paid to
the officers of Adams and Canyon

The other day was asked to go to
see a new invention which has just
been discovered-a way to draw cleo
tricity from the sun. | went down
town in New York, and was lifted in
an express elevator to the top OF one
of the highest buildings in the city.
Finally, on the roof, far above the
city's noise, found group of men
looking at a large frame in which
blocks of metal were fixed. This
frame was connected by electric wires
with the room below, and in two days
of sunlight it collected enough cleo
tricity to light an ordinary house for
a week. No more dynamos or waste
of energy-producing power-simply
the frame upon the roof absorbing the
brightness of the sun, and turning il
into light for the dark hours 1t is a
wonderful invention, and, when it is
perfected, you will find it upon the
roof of every house, upon the upper
deck of every steamer, quietly at work
storing away the silent power of the

VISITING RURAL NURSE
MEETS WITH APPROVAL

In order to give practical test to
the value OF a visiting nurse in rural
communities, representatives of the
rural organization service of the de-
partement helped the people OF Chill
.on county, Alabama, to organize for
the purpose of appointing a visiting
trained nurse and meeting her salary
and expenses. For this purpose the
sum of 81, 500 was raised, of which the
county board appropriated $500, the
school board $500, and private individ-
uals $500. The services of visiting
nurse, certified by the Red Cross So
ciety, were secured at salary of $500
per year and actual expenses. In the
expenses were included the purchase
of horse and buggy and stabling
and feed for the horse.
| In order to enable the county to
appoint the nurse as a county officer,
the nurse applied for and obtained a
third-grade teachers certificate, which
enabled her to be appointed as assist
ant county superintendent of schools.
To direct her work and disburse the
money raised and appropriated, the
following committee was appointed:
the county health officer, county sup
erlntendent of schools, county agent
for farmers cooperative demonstra-
ton, county head of the girls canning
club work, and local physician.
The nurse has been actually engag-
ed in her work now for more than a
month. Her work has been as fol-
lows:
School Visiting.
By degrees she is visiting every
rural school in the county and at
these schools is making an inspection
of pupils to detect signs of contagious
diseases and to discover defects in
teeth, presence of adenoids, diseases
OF the eyes, or similar physical condi-
tions calling for medical or other at
tention. In addition she inspects the
school grounds with special reference
to sanitary appliances in their relation
to the spread of disease. She also
lectures to the teachers and pupils on
methods by which diseases are car
ried or spread, giving particular at
tention to the danger of the fly as a
carrier of typhoid and the necessity
for keeping water supplies and food
| unCOntamlnated.
Mothers Meetings.
Wherever opportunity is given, the
nurse holds mothers meetings at
which she talks and gives demonstra-
tons on the care and feeding of in
fants, home and general hygiene and
sanitation, with special reference to
the sources of diseases and measures
for preventing their spread.
Sick Nursing.
In special cases where rural pa
tents are dangerously ill, the nurse,
at the request of doctors, visits the
home and assists the physician in
getting the patient over the crisis.
According to reports from the
work of the nurse is meeting with
great favor on the part of the author
tiles and the country residents.

PAYETTE CITY WATER is
IN NEED OF FILTRATION
Up-to-date Plant Will be Installed by
City Council This Year.

Payette will make an effort this
year to improve the quality of her
city water. The city council has in
contemplation the installation OF an
up-to-date filtration plant. We quote
from the Payette Enterprise.
Monday evening at the regular
meeting the greater portion of the
time of the city council was taken up
considering plans for a filtration of
the city water Now that the new
power plant is safely installed and
has proven to be success the next
question that confronts the council is
the quality of the water supply. For
several years the annual complaint at
certain seasons has been the muddy
condition of the city water and for
several years every council elected has
pledged itself to an improvement of
the water system. Up to the present
time no great steps were ever taken
to do anything with the plant. Many
plans were made it is true and good
but it has remand for the present
city administration to actually begin
the work of Improvement to the city
water plant.
L FheNmatter of investigating the in
stallation of an up-to-date filtration
plant has been turned over to the
committee and considerable data have
already been secured When de-
finite plans are secured the matter
will be turned over to the people for
their ratification as it will be neces-
sary to vote bonds in order to raise
money sufficient to make this need
ed improvement

OVERWHELMING DEFEAT
 OF TEMPE SCHOOL BONDS
s50,OOO Bond Issue Meets With De- feat When Placed at the
 Taxpayers Mercy

By a vote of A to 3S, taxpayers of school district No. 3, that including Tempe and a small area north of here. voted down the $50,000 bond issue yesterday for a new grammar school site and building. The only step the members of the board Of trustees see to be taken now, is that of the purchase of another church or two where one or two grades may be removed from the grammar school proper, which is even now greatly CvertaXed.
 The opposing vote to the bond issue greatly exceeded the forecasts even of those who were working against it, let alone those who were in favor of the issue. A majority of the taxpayers are inclined to feel that the tax burden they are now bearing is already large enough without the addition of the $50,OOO.O0 for the more adequate school system.
 While no future action has been intimated by the board of trustees toward provision for the coming school year, it is understood some effort will be made to purchase the old South Methodist church and the present North Methodist church

 The newly proposed route covers that section of the country known as the lands lying between the Eastern and Highline canals Within the past few years there have been thou sands of acres of lands developed which are three, four. and even six miles from a postoffice It will be no difficulty to get the required i number of houses to be served with in the twenty-five mile distance to be covered by the carrier. The trans mission line road will be a portion of the route, and the Roosevelt road , back to the Consolidated canal and l then down the Consolidated to the Florence road, out on that and thence south.
