fled to the Texas side, fearing attack
by bandits. According to the reports

the customs house, the telegraph of.
flee and railroad property in Neuvo
Laredo and then started an attack on
Laredo.
What damage has been done to the
American town was not known, but
great excitement prevails.

Great Future for Farms

Billings, April 23.-Within the next
10 to 20 years Is per cent of the
farms and ranches of Montana. will
be under irrigation and equipped with
electric lights and other modern con.
veniences, predicts Max Hebgen, gen.
eral manager of the Montana Power
company, who has just returned
to Butte from a visit to the Billings
offices of the company.
There are many water channels,
and in some instances rivers, he says.
beneath the surface, and the tapping
of these will afford an ample supply
for the irrigation of the greater part
of the states area. Power for raising
the water will be furnished from high
tension lines running from centrally
located stations to every farm.
Each year sees division of the big
ranches into small FARMS" Mr.. Heb
gen said, land it is only a question OF
time when farms of 20, 40 and 80
acres will be the rule and not the
exception. On farms of this size il
will be an easy matter, when electric
ity is to be had, to drill wells and in
stall electrically operated plants with
which to raise water for irrigation.

Drastic Treatment for Snipers

Vera Cruz, April 25.-The most
drastic treatment possible will be ad-
ministered to Mexican snipers operat-
ing at night. At a staff conference
today the question of this kind of
shooting a discussed, and it was
decided that the most severe punish.
ment would be the only simple and
quick solution.
Lieutenant Colonel Kane, command.
ing 500 marines, with two hydro-aero-
planes was ordered today to advance
to the source of the water supply at
Tejera, nine miles up the river. The
supply has been shut off and it is re-
ported that General Mas men have
been seeking to damage the pumps.
The water supply here, however, is
adequate for all purposes. and there
is little danger from contamination.

DANIEL WEBSTER IN 1888.

The remarks of Daniel Webster in
1883 regarding agitatorE and pessi-
mists are being quoted here and there
during the prevailing period of de-
structive criticism. Here is the way
the great orator summed up the stu
alton in 4 senate speech:
There are persons who constantly
clamor. They complain of oppression,
speculation and the pernicious influ-
-snce of accumulated wealth They
cry out loudly against all banks and
corporations and all means by which
small capitalists become united in or
der to produce important and bene,
fetal results. They carry on mad
hostility against all established insti-
buttons. They would choke the foun-
tain Of industry and dry all streams
In a country of unbound I'd liberty
they clamor against oppression. In a
country of perfect equality they would
move heaven and earth against privi-
lege and monopoly. In a country
where property is more evenly divided
than anywhere else they rend the air
shouting about agrarian doctrines. In
a country where wages of labor are
high beyond parallel they would teach
the laborer that he is but an Cypress
ed slave"
