CONTEST,

- Having been so successful in the
a corn and the pork production contests
b inaugurated among the boys Of the
Z state, the extension department Of the
( North Dakota Agricultural college has
e decided to inaugurate an alfalfa con-
3 test.
1t will be done through the county
t superintendents Of schools. All boys
) from II to 1S years Of age are eligible
! and will be furnished seed on payment
+ of 81. The department will give the
I necessary instructions for growing the
: alfalfa and the rules governing the
{ contest. The awards may be made in
/ two ways, by judging the growth in
: the fields or by judging bundles sent
to the corn show.
{ The latter will probably be the
.method adopted as the other would be
expensive in sending the judges to
make the field inspections. As the
alfalfa crop is now attracting so much
attention it is anticipated there will
be a large number Of contestants.
In the corn contests boys grew more
bushels han any adult farmer had
ever secured. In the pork production
contest the result exceeded the re-
turns of any grown up hog breeder in
the state. 1t is thought similar re-
suits may be attained by the boys ir
the alfalfa contest.

HUI RITA.

Oddly enough, there has been Great
ed in certain quarters Of the United
States the impression that General
Huerta is in reality a strong man.
1t has been pointed out that he has
completed more than a year as head
OF a de facto government. and that he
has held his own extraordinarily we'll,
under untoward conditions.
7 In the light of recent events, how
ever. nothing is so readily discerned,
as the fact that this remarkable man
is skillful chiefly in the f%ashioninr OF
falsehoods. and in misleading his own
followers.
His occasional coasts touching fnan-
cial support, a newly organized army,
the success of his forces in the field,
have been seen again and again to

Despite the defeat of his followers

business seen in his parIeying over the
'Tampico episode cannot sugges

be seen to indicate anything resem

The civilized world has had shock

out right and by methods for which
there can be no justification. Only
part OF the country is under his con-
troll.
IF armed conflict should unhappily
come as a result Of his attitude Of
personal resentment towards this gov
eminent, we should be fighting only
General Huerta and those who adhere
to him and give him their support,
and u object would be only to re-
store to the people of the distracted
republic the opportunity to set again
in operation their wv laws and their
oWn government.
But I earnestly hope that war is
not in question. 1 believe that 1 speak
for the American people when I say
that we do not desire to control in
any degree the affairs of our sister
republic. Our feeling for the people
of Mexico is one of deep and genuine
friendship, and everything that we
have so far done or refrained from
help them, not to hinder or embarrass
them. We would not wish even to
exercise the good offices OF friend
ship without their welcome and con-
sent. The people of Mexico are en-
titled to settle their own domestic af-
fairs in their own way, and we sin
cerely desire to respect their right.
THE present situation need have
none of the grave complications of in
reference if we deal with it prompt
ly, firmly and wisely.
Reason for Request.
mo doubt I could do what is neces-
sary in the circumstances to enforce
respect for our government without
recourse to congress, and yet not ex-
| coed my constitutional powers as pres
ident, but / do not wish to act in a
matter possibly of so grave conse-
quence except in close conference and
Cooperation with both the senate and
house.

Wilson'S Message
to Congress on the
Mexican Situation

Washington, April 21.-Following is
the message President Wilson deliver
ed to congress late yesterday:
Gentlemen of the Congress; 1T
is my duty to call your attention to
a situation which has arisen in our

Of men of the army Of General
Huerta.
Neither the paymaster nor any
other Of the boats crew was armed.
Two of the men were in the boat when
the arrest too place, and We're obig-
ed to leave it and submit to be taken
into custody, Notwithstanding the fact
that the BOAT carried both at he bow
and at her stern, the flag Of the Unit
ed States. .... ,
THE officer who made the arrest
was proceeding UP one of the streets
Of the town with his prisoners Wher
met by an officer of higher authority
who ordered him to return to the land

WORST ENDORSED.

President Worst's formal ]nnoun
States senate on the republican prim-

able endorsement from the press OF

Langdon Republican is typical of the
sentiment expressed:

Worst Of the agricultural college,
was considering the matter of be-
coming a republican candidate for
the Office Of United States senator,

1ngly made or Tuesday of this week.
For twenty odd years President
#RA Worst = has been at the head Of
8ga the agricultural college. and has
made that institution one of the
greatest developing forces of the
state.
Whether it is possible for him
TO render greater service to the
state as a senator. than as the
head OF our A. G. is questionable,
but in all these years of service
he has demonstrated his ability.
and loyalty to the farming inter-
ests of North Dakota. His plat
form is too lengthy for publication,
in this weeks issue but will APP
pear next week. and as we read it
over, and know the man making
that platform, w feel that it
comes from u in close touch
