MONEY FOR HUERTA
 IS SCARCE IN FRANCE

Paris, Jan. 1-Senor Ru1, a member of the Mexican Constitutionalist com mittee in Paris, declares that the mis- sion of Adolfo de la Lama to Europe to obtain funds for President Huerta has been g. complete failure.
 5enor de la Lama informed the Paris bankers whom he saw that Huerta is not seeking money but desires merely to get them to accept his notes at six monthss President Huerta also wants the removal of the pledge to the bank sers of 3s per cent. of the Mexican cus- toms receipts which was guaranteed in the last bond issue. In the days of Porfirfo Diaz, 62 per cent. of the customs receipts was mortgaged in this manner, so that Mexico is now forced to pay over her entire custom receipts.
 According to Senor RuI Gen. Huerta sees chance, if he obtains the re- mova1 of the 3s per cent pledge, to offer that part of the customs receipts to third class bankers in Europe who are willing to advance money to Mex ic0 at enormous rates. -.94
 The French bankers are said to have Frefused to advance a cent or to make any agreement for future loans, say- ing this is impossible in view of the present temper Of the French govern
 ment. The bankers, Senor Rul as- serts, also gave Senor de la Lama to understand that they would do their utmost to prevent him from obtain ing money for Huerta anywhere in Europe

Presidio, Tex, Jan. 1-The battle in EOjinaga, Mex, between the North ern division of the federal army and rebels continued this morning, after been in progress at night Five or 500 federals had already been killed and the wounded will be in excess of that number.
 Horriifying sights were witnessed on the American side before daylight. The wounded soldiers with shattered arms, legs shot off and injuries that later proved fatal, struggled through the river and pleaded to the Ameri- can soldiers for help.
 All the physicians and medical sup plies available here were placed at the service of the disabled federais. Be- fore daylight. more thran 200 wound ed had sought relief on this side. some me of these were so severely injured that they begged the American soldiers to kill them.
 From the war-scarred little village of eOjinaga back mile from the river there came what appeared to be an endless tide of wounded The light on the border here had the appear ance of being the most sanguinary conflict of the present rebellion.
 Federal deserters also came to the river in great numbers, indicating that the bulk of Huerta's army was dis posed to give up. All the deserters that were not wounded. however, were disarmed on this side and sent back by Major McNamee. commanding the United States border patrol. < Major MeNamee has more than 800 guns which he took from deserters- During the night the groaning of the wounded orh the battle field on the opposite side Of the river could be heard by the American cavalry men. The firing in the darkness seemed to be heavier than it fad yet been.

 New York. Jan. l1.--That Wall street has weathered arl exceedingly lean year is shown by the fact that trans- actions on the New York Stock Ex- change in 1913 mark the lowest record in the past IT years. There is no de- uying. however, that as the year closes, financial interests are mani festing a greater degree of optimism than in many months. This optimism is born of the belief that an era or Federal square dealing with the cor dence is expressed by representatlv business men in all parts of the coun- try that the Interstate Commerce commission will perceive justice in the request of eastern railroads for a per cent freight rate increase Wall street is of course vitally interested In this affair, and snotlld the increase cferE believe that the s1s14 boom, predicted by the optimists will become a reality.
 The Baldwin Locomotive Go. in the year 1918 constructed 2.025 Locomotives, against i, ,61s in. 1912. Of the number 1.s11 were for use in the United States. and 214 for export TO foreign coun- tries The average number of men employed throughout the year was Is, 5,s13. At the present. time about T, ,ooe men are carried on the pay-roI1s.
 The Texas company's earnings for the year are said to pc about 14 per cent. on the capitalization and the directors are considering an increase of the dividend to an per cent. basis in March. The Dutch Syndicate, own ing wells in Oklahoma operated by the Texas Co, has been bidding for the stock since the death Of Charles c. Gates
 Following closely upon tho passing Of dividends by the Arlington Mills, another important New England con- cern-the Contoocook Mills of Maine has decided to pass the quarterly div idend on the $450 0DU per cent. pre- ferred stock due January I. These div idends are cumulative, and directors gre of the opinion that the present suspension is only temporary.
 The National City Bank of Brooklyn has applied for membership in the Federal Reserve system. This is the first Brooklyn bank to apply.
 P Morgan & Go. will pay the interest due January I on United States of Mexico internal loan of Of issuance, but has been greatly re- duced by successive drawings so that now the amount Of the other Mexican bends is payable in Paris. ard local bankers have not concerned them selves with. the arran gements in that city reported to haS-. been made by the Huerta administration.

If a friendly receiver ship were brought about this distribu- ton would be conserved. While this phase of the situarIon received the closest consideration, it may be stat ed that there is no question but what these January 1 payments will be met.
 The sale Of two Stock Exchange
 memberships at s45,000 each, an ad- vance of nearly $5,O00 over the last sale, is a strong indication of in creased confidence in the outlook for 1914. A few months ago Wall street seemed to think that Exchange seats could be had almost for the asking by the end Of the year.

ARE NOT GUILTY OF PERJURY
MIR. and Mrs. John c. Davidson Free
of Grand Jury Indictments

The jury for the fall term of
court of the Eighth Judicial Dis
trict convened at Standpoint Mon
day morning. The first case on
the criminal calendar was that of
John Davidson, of Meadow Creek,
who was indicted by the grand
jury on charge of perjury, it be-
ing alleged that the defendant per-
jured himself in testifying in
neighborhood row case tried in the
district court about a year ago.
Davidson was indicted by the
grand jury for three counts and
his wife and Mr.. and Mrs. James
w. Paxton were also indicted on
similar charges.
Davidson and his wife both tes
tilted in the defendants behalf.
VIM. Johnson, A. Lazos, A. J.
Kent and George w. Fetch were
character witnesses for the defense.
Testimony introduced in the
trial of a year ago showed that
Mrs. Templemen received a blow
on the head during an alteration
between her and Mr., 3. Davidson,
the latter striking Mrs. Temple
man after she had first drawn a
gun. The Paxtons were witnesses
of the trouble but at the trial de-
MED that Mrs. Davidson had struck
Mrs. Templeman with a hammer.
The present case arises from the
evidence given the state that Mrs.
Davidson did have and did strike
Mrs. Templeman with hammer.
Tuesday afternoon the case went
to the jury and a verdict of not
guilty was returned This decision
will remove six of the II indict-
ments brought by the grand jury
last June.
The indictment against Denver
p. Dayton, and the cases against
County Commissioners Nagle and
McColl and the arson charge
against WI Harrington are set
for trial.

WILL NOT NEGLECT THEIR WORK
Republican Candidates Plan to Conduct
Campaign Along Different Lines

With the exception of two, the
for county offices on
the republican ticket are now hold
ing office. On the republican leg
islative ticket two of the nominees
have each served in this state.
The candidates for county offices
on the republican ticket who now
hold Office have decided to set a
new precedent for all parties. They
will conduct their campaign
through the newspapers of the
county and by means of personal
letters. In other words, they do
not propose to leave their official
duties and campaign at the expense
of the taxpayers. This is a move
that should have the sincere en-
dorsement of the voters of Bonner
county. 1t goes to show that the
men on the republican ticket now
in Office are honest in their efforts
to give their whole time to the per
Torrance of the public duties their
respective offices require of them.
They all have records to be proud
of and are willing to trust their re-
election to the great majority who
know good officers. The fact that
some of the present republican
officers have held Office for one or
more terms will not have anything
to do with the election of their op-
ponents. What one of us would
fire a man working for us if he was
doing his work we'll simply to
make a job for some other fellow
That would be good business sense,
wouldn't itl Why not run the
county business on the same prin-
ciple that you would run your own
business? The longer you have a
good man in your employ the more
work you can expect of him. The
longer he is with you the more he
understands what is wanted and
how best to accomplish it.
