INTERVIEWS

- J. POLLARD, of Mesa, Arizona,
travelling representative of the
- Salt River Valley Educational
and Cooperative Farmers unions Of
Arizona arrived in FL Paso Thursday
noon to look over the hay market
for his association.
Mr. Pollard is most enthusiastic
about the work being done by the
farmers unions in Arizona The or
ganizatiOn which he represents was
started the first of the year, and now
includes over four-fifths of all the
farmers of Arizona, and is organized at
every point in the Salt River valley.

organization with the state corpora

ton of % percent on the freight rate
for grain from Arizona points to the
markets in Los Angeles A committee
is now working with the commission
to secure the reduction on freight
rates for hay. Hay IS one OF the
biggest products and we are shipping
car lots to Fort Worth Dallas and
San Antonio. The heavy irrigation
from the Roosevelt dam has made the
farmers able to cut two tons TO the
acre and the hay is of very fine quail

"On account of the heavy rains IN
California and the great decrease in
the number of cattle brought out from
Mexico, we are not finding our hay
market as near US as it would be un-
der more ordinary circumstances.
Since the organization has been
started, we have had very good re
suits in selling directly to the whole
sale distributors in car load lots, and
have reduced the cost to the farmers
from the usual commission mans
charge of $500 q ton, to about 20 cents

may occur during the month. Only
working farmers, who are making their
living from their farms, are allowed
as members of the association. This
excludes farm owners who may be

IN THE ornate foyer of the Hotel
HighwhistIe, little man in black
sat in a big plush armchair, ner-
yously tapping the arms OF 1t with his
fingers.
All about was life and motion; beauti-
full women, funny looking men, bellbOys,
head clerks. and the indescribable aroma
of imported tango tea.
A bellboy started to circle about the
foyer. As usual, he seemed somewhat IN
doubt as to whom he was to page.
'lIr. Bear!" he called. "Mr. Bear!
M'Baah! M'Baah!"
There was no response. A gentleman
from Cactus City, registering, wrote his
name in the space for the date before the
clerk could stop him.
''Mr. Wolff Mr.. Wolff" called the
bellbov. ''M'Woof! M'WOof!"
The cornetist in the balcony removed
his chewing gum from his mouth, Ior
the orchestra was about to play. The
violinist kept his in, for his wasn't that
kind of an instrument.
"Mr. Lionsl" called the bellboy
"Milleye! Milleye!"
Still no response.
"Nr. Camel" cried the bellboy, and
then gave it up.
For two more hours Mr.. Fox, almost
lost in the big plush armchair, waited
in vain for his important call.

100 Years Ago Today

NNE hundred years ago today Ma
pOieOn, surrounded by a few of
his marshals who still remained
faithful, was in bitter meditation al
FontainebleaU. Apparently he realized
for the first time that detection and
opposition were getting too strong for
him. When he learned that the allies
had captured Paris he gave way to the
whole fury of his Corsican tempera-
ment. But his indomitable spirit was
not yet crushed. Despite the discour-
aging outlook he nourished faint hope
that he might recaptUre the city and
regain his throne. To gain time to work
out his plans he sent two of his mar
shals with an offer to abdicate in favor
Of his son, the young king of Rome. This
offer was rejected without ceremony by
the allied sOvereigns, who had already
agreed upon the restoration of the Bour-
bons.

VILLA HOLDS KEY.

MEXICO CITY, July 20.-PreS
Carbajal and his advisers believe that
peace in Mexico Will soon be achieved
as far as negotiations with Gen. Car
rama are concerned, but great uncer
tainty prevails over the a. titude Of
other revolutionary lea.ers, particu-
larly Gen. Villa. Though the retire

great step forward, it is expected
that several months will pass before
peace throughout the country is re-
stored.
Even If Carranza is established in
Mexico City as provisional president,
Villa is expected TO withhold his in

gained their wealth by holding the
lower classes in virtual slavery for

that refuses TO provide for land dis
