MEX|CANS WILL TREAT
THROUGH GEN. BLANCO
If Necessary, Will Defend Capitals
Inhabitants From Attacks by
Any Party.

MIcNICO CITY, November 21.-It is
learned on the highest authority that
Gen. Lucio Blanco will remain in the
capital to act as the agent through
whom the new government will take
over the reins. If necessary he will
defend the inhabitants from the at
tacks of any Of the three parties. but
the opinion is expressed generally
that the adherents of Carranza, "a
pata and Villa will treat through Gen.
Blanco, thus making the change a
bloodless one.
Gen. Villa is expected here within a

EMBARGO ON AUSTRALIAN
WOOL NOW IS ABSOLUTE
Great Britain Also Plans to Pro.
hibit Expectation of Rubber
to United States.

The embargo on Australian wool has
been made absolute Licenses for eA-
portation of any product to the United
States have been revoked. Great Brit
ain proposes to apply the same restric-
tions to rubber.
1t had been hoped that after tho
needs of the British army had b.ea
satisfied Americans might be permit
ted to buy the Australian surplus. Civ
ing guarantees that neither the wool
nor goods made from it would reach
Austria or Germany. but the Stato
Department was informed last evening
that. for the present at least, no eN-
ception would be made.
In spite of the lack OF advance as
surance. however. officials here and IN
terested manufacturers still are conf
dent that there will be n moditicatio'l
later. They think time will demon
strate that the entire output of IA"
wool from the colonies is not needed
by Great Britain.
II il understood that the decision oc
the British privy council to wool
applies also TO rubber of which largo
quantities have been exported tn
America from the Straits Settlements
and India. There has been no official
report on this point.

SITUATION IN BELGIUM
FAILS TO GET BETTER
Cold and Hungry People Are Now
Flocking to the Larger
Cities.

LONDON, November 3l.--Notwith-
standing the amount of relief work
which is being done for the Belgians,
conditions there, in the larger cities as
well as the rural districts, are becom-
ing more serious. Jean Van Branaden,
a member of the Belgian national re-
lief committee, who has arrived here
from Brussels to consult the American
relief commission, said that the Situa-
tion in Brussels was growing more
alarming constantly, as refugees are
pouring into that city at the rate of
$4,000 q day.
This influx,'' he said, "is due to a
lack of fuel as well as of food. Brus-
sells has plenty of coal. but the inter-
ruption of transportation makes it i'm
possible to carry coal to remote viii
lagos. Refugees are hocking to Liege
and other large towns as well as to
Brussels.
Kerosene Also Is Scarce.
'The peopleare entirely dependent on
Kerosene for both heating and cooking,
and the supply of this fuel also is
becoming scarce. The committee is re-
cefving petitions every day for sup
plies of Oil.
I'VE arc grateful to !the American
commission for the 1000 tons of food
Which has been distributed in Belgium
since the 1st of November.
I'VE have an ample number OF volun-
teer workers to attend to the distri-
button OF these supplies, but the lack
of transportation facilities has pre-
vented us from reaching many remote
villages which are i'll sore need OF as
sistancc.
"The committee is now supplying
100000 meals daily in Brussels to 300.-
600 persons. These meals consist of po-
tato soup, some rice and a piece of
bread.

VIII Have farm Oem0nstratOr.

The Levying Court of Unit n county met in Fl Dorado Wednes- day and made the levy the same as last year and we are glad to report voted $z5OOO for farm demon stration work in this county for next year.
 This amount with the aid which the federal government will give will permit this work to be carried on on larger scale than heretofore md we trust every farmer in u e :ounty will take advantage of this opportunity to do more scientific farming in the future.
 When you find a man who thinks government demonstration methods of farming are not better than the usual way, you may know he is a man who never reads because all statics ever compiled are against him. Get into the game and try approved methods next year and see the improvement.

CHAPTER XIV

Though the times had turned to war all nature that morning was at peace, and they rode through a valley of flow CTS like knight and lady in a pageant. The rich grass rose knee-deep along the billsides. the desert trees were fligreed with the tenderest green and twined with morning -glories. and in open glades the poppies and sand verbenas spread forth asses of blue and gold.
 Already on the mesauit-trees the mocking birds were singing. and bright flashes of tropical color showed where cardinal and yellow-throat passed. Tho dew was still untouched upon the grass. and yet they hurried on. for some premonition whispered to them of evil, and they thought only to gain the far pass.
 Beyond that lay comparative sefets., but no man knew what dangers lurked between them and that cleft in the mountains. Del Rey and his ruraiss or Bravo and his rebels might be there. In fact, one or the other prob. ably was there, and if so there wo,1 1fl be fight, light against heavy odds If he were alone, and odds that. would be greatly increased because. he must protect Gracia.

WERE ON THE FIRE ALREADY
Too Late for Julius to Sec That syI' vestsr Rawlings Eoas Were
 Fresh.

MT. Sylvester Rawlings, the mu- sical critic, became hungry the other day. And so he walked long way to get to a restaurant in which he is acquainted. The waiter, Julius, is particular friend of MT. Raw lings. That gentleman has always cherished the belief that Julius has served him well. He thinks that from time to time Julius has won better food for him than Is set forth upon the menu.
 Bring me two or three fried eggs, Julius," MT. Rawlings ordered.
 "Chess, sir, Mir. Rawlings" said Julius. "At once, sir"
 And Julius hurried to the kitchen, walking in the duck-footed haste of the perfect waiter. By and by he re- turned to Mir. Rawlings side. to place the silver and do other little chores about the table. MT. Raw lings thought he would have a bit of fun with Julius.
 "Ah, Julius," said Nr. Rawlings. "By the way, Julius. See that those eggs are fresh. Julius"
 "Too late, sir" said the grave Jul jus. "They're on the fire now."- Pittsburgh Chronicle-Telegraph.

MORRISON MAY
SUE To FORCE
FEE REDUCTION
Classification Controversy May
Again go Into Court For a
Final Settlement.
y interesting nnestion effecti

A y interesting question effecting
~ the offices of the county
= treasurer, county clerk and the
sheriff has arisen as a result of the
bill putting Mesa county in the third
class. Until now Mesa county has
been in the fourth class, and the fees
for these offices are somewhat high
Ell in the fourth than in the third
class.
Recently l.. l.. Morrison brought a
suit in the district court, the result
of which was that Judge Black ruled
that the clerk of the district court
should hereafter charge fees on the
basis of a third class county. 1t is
now contended by Mr. Morrison and
others that the three officers above
named should follow the rule laid
down in this case. Other attorneys
point out that there is difference
between the treasurer, clerk and
sheriff, and the clerk of the district
court, in that the clerk OF the district
court has no definite term of office,
he being appointed simply during
the pleasure of the court, while the
other officers have. They therefore
hold that the constitutional prohi-
bition against increasing or dimin-
ishing the fees or emoluments of an
officer during his term would
operate in the case of the three off
GERS named, where 1t might not in
the case of the clerk of the district
court.
The county clerk is in receipt of
an opinion from the Hon. Fred ].
Farrar, attorney general. to the ef-
feet that he should continue to
tha nf n 70 nrtb ole
county until the end OF his present
term.
The case is one which does not VII
tally effect the three officers. for the
reason that it would not in tl/ least
reduce their salaries. all OF the Off
GERS having earned handsome sur
pulses for some years bank. and al
though these surpluses would be ma
terially reduced under third-class
system, there would be still ample
funds to pay the running expenses of
the offices.
The surpluses from the various
offices are turned into the general
county fund and are used for the
general maintenance of the county
government. and the sheriff. treasur-
er and clerk do not wish to take it
upon themselves to reduce these
surpluses, unless the legality of such
step be fully determined first
Attorney Morrison has said that he
contemplates bringing suit similar
to the one against the clerk of the
district court. and in view OF the un-
certainty regarding the situation and
the various legal opinions expressed,
il is probable that the officers con-
cerned will join in having such a
suit presented before Judge Black,
in order that they may be fully pro-
tected in their future course Mr..
Jones. Mr.. Schrader and Mr.. Canon
all state that they have no personal
interest in the matter other than
their desire to conduct their offices
in accordance with the law.
