Santa Fe, April 20. School districts
that apply for state aid must in the
future make satisfactory showing
that they have collected the poll tax
from every citizen subject to it and
have also collected the school tax
levy. The department of education al.
SO inclines toward suggesting differ.
ent method of apportionment Of school
funds. While the constitution provides
that they must be apportioned by the
state to the counties in accordance
with the school census there Is no
such limitation on the county aathori-
ties. It r. maintained that an appor-
tionment based upon actual average

{ NTERM MEDIATION IN MEN
ICO

We shall be surprised If, after hay
ing carried this country so close tC
war for redress to an insult to ma
tional honor, even Mr.. wilson's flexi
bility will enable him to see his way
clear to accept any result Of an in
termediation falling short Of every
thing which has been demanded, in
essence if not in form, says the st.
Louis Globe-D Democrat. However, even
his acceptance OF the intermediation
offered BY Brazil, Chile and Argentine
is itself such a surprise that we
should be prepared for what may fol-
low. Washington dispatches state YER
6al conditions accompanying his ac-
ceptance Of mediation. These include
Huerta's elimination, apparently as a
condition precedent to the beginning
of actual mediation looking toward
the pacification of Mexico and a reor-
ganization of its government, and suit
able reparation for the detention of
1ackies at Tampico and the arrest Of a |
ships mail carrier In Vera Cruz.
While these conditions are not I

IAN INJURED HUSBAND

Rarely does husband who sues his
wife for alfmony or separate mainten-
ance succeed in enlisting the sym
pathy of the public. Old fashioned
IDEAS still persist and the husband
who goes to law to compel his wife to
make financial provision for his sup
port in his declining years is more
likely to encounter ridieule than SYM
pathy. But, whether it be because of
the changed conditions under the
spread Of new feminism or because of
the peculiar circumstances surround
ing his case, many VIII feel that the
former New York policeman who is
asking an annuity from the wealthy
wife who recently barred him from
her home has some grounds for his
action.
Their marriage resulted from his
having saved her life in runaway.
All indications are that, on account Of
her great wealth, she took the initia-
tiev in the courtship. He alleges in
his suit that she persuaded him to re-
sign his job as policeman, which
meant the REIMBURSEMENT OF all rights
Of seniority and his claims under the
pension system He does not appear
to have been SO intoxicated with the
eourtship as to forget matters of fin
ancial detail. He contends that his
wife promised to pay him $4,000 for
life, payable quarterly. It is for the
first quarterly payment since he was
turned out Of house and home that ne
brings suit
In his suit he describes briefly some

iition ashusband Of the "best-dressed

"Godw he whispered. bring her

For, all at once, he knew that unless
he had hopes of her coming back he
could not go on. He had thought he
could grit his teeth and work. Now
he knew that he couldn't.
The only way he could get himself
to go out with the boys and work
was to tell himself that her first let
