mains with the voters to sort out the
best qualified men for the positions
which it Is within the power of the
people to grant, We should carefully
select men for county Offices on whom
for the greatest number Of people so
far as that lies within their power. We
should consider character, business

power to stay with an undertaking In
the best interests of the people whom
he serves. and then vote for the man
whom we think comes nearest to hay
ing those qualifications. We should
take the past history of the county and
the country at large, and determine in
our own minds under which party ad-
ministrations we have achieved the
most prosperity. and then vote for that
prosperity by electing intelligent and
conservative men to office. The BUSH

AN UNFAIR STATE LAW.

The announcement of the sale
of the 100000 4 per cent Idaho
state highway bonds was made
last night by Governor J. M.
Haines upon his arrival in the
city from Moscow, says a south
Idaho exchange.
THE sale of the highway bonds
has just been closed, the sale be-
ing at par and the first payment
of 100000 will be made next
week. The other 100000 will be
made available at an early date
and nothing Is now in the way to
delay the inauguration of the
state highway construction in
counties where the necessary bond
issues have been voted by the
taxpayers to provide the funds re-

The Idaho Statesman says:

The Idaho Statesman says:
The latest license plate to be
issued from the office of the sec
rotary of state was numbered
34,400 and 1t went to j. 3. Dick
son of Boise. The number Of cars
licensed at this time last year
was 2047, just 1853 machines be-
low this years record
This years receipts to date
amount to $51,59S dollars, while
last years receipts had only reach
ed $30705 at this time
This brings the total money coll
lected by the state under the auto
mobile license law to $S2,295, The way
it looks on the surface south Idaho Is
heeling herself for good roads, and the
balance of the state is helping to pay
the bill. All of this money, however
is not available for road work, as it
takes good portion Of it to pay the
expenses of the members of the road
commission for viewing proposed
rutes and then never building them.

and do not care to express my opinion
of the traitors resignation
A military band played martial airs
outside Villas headquarters as the
news of Huerta's resignation was
spread about. Villa will probably re-
main here several weeks.
A sudden but not unexpected turn
of affairs at the national capital led
to speculation regarding which consti-
tutionalist troops would be first to en-
ter Mexico City. Forces under Gener-
ais Aguilar and Oregon are nearest
the goal, but Villa officials believe that
troops of all divisions will be repre-
sented in a triumphal entry. Villas
army cannot be moved southwark for

ed by the moral support of the Ameri-
can government, pushed their military
campaign to within striking distance
of the capital. Realizing a military
conquest Of Mexico City was inevitable
General Huerta has finally yielded to
the persuasion of the hundreds of in
fuential Mexicans who prayed that
further bloodshed and disturbance be
avoided.
With Huerta's retirement the con-
stitutionalists feel their revolution vir-
tually has triumphed. They turned
against him the moment he murdered
Madero, constitutional president of
Mexico, in February, 1912, and have
waged their war with unrelenting vi
gor ever since.
The prospect of an early solution
of the Mexican problem gave both
President Wilson and Secretary Bryan,
and they were heartily congratulated
by friends today. American forces
will not be withdrawn from Vera Cruz
until a stable government has been
established in Mexico City and recogni-
ton has been accorded the new gov
eminent The feeling is general, how
ever, tina: if Carranza gives guarantees
to political offenders, recognition will
be extended promptly by the United
States as we'll as other nations of
Central and South America, and
Europe:
incidentally, Huerta's resignation
now places Europe on an equal footing
with the United States with respect TO
the authorities at Mexico City. The
powers of Europe had recognized
Huerta, but because of the pronounced
attitude of the United States, they are
expected to follow the lead of the
American government before extending
recognition to Carbajal or his sue
cessor.

plant

Washington, July 16.-News of Gen
eral Huerta's resignation as provision
al president of Mexico was hailed by
Washington as the first practical step
toward a quick solution of the Mexican
problem, and diplomats here discussed
the occurrence seriously today. Consti-
tutionalists, diplomats and officials of
the United States are elated over Gen
eral Huerta's voluntary withdrawal,
and today predicted an era of peace in
his country.
Although the constitutionalists have
declared they would not recognize
Francisco Carbajal as provisional pres
ident, and the United States govern
ment likewise will refuse to recognize
him. the understanding here is that the
new executive will hold Office only UNI
til arrangements can sbe made for the
entry of General Carranza, the consti-
tutionalist chief.
Diplomats in close touch with the
situation declare Carbajal and those
who are associated with him in an ef-
fort to restore peace, desire only
general amnesty, conserving the lives
and property of Huerta's supporters.
With this obtained, the peaceful entry
into the Mexican capital of constitu-
tionalist troops will be negotiated.
General Huerta's retirement came
lust as the constitutionalists were pre-
paring their formal note declining par
ticipation in Informal conferences with
Huerta delegates to discuss internal
Mexican questions.
Hopes were raised today that now
negotiations might be begun, however,
between representatives of Carranza
and Carbajal for the speedy transfer
of power to the constitutionalists. 1t
