Another Political Plum
For Southern Nevada

As a Dalm to southern Nevada
Democrats for failure to give that
section the United States District
Attorneyship, and also in recogni-
tion of the ability and political SER
vice of John F. Kunz, who came
within an ace of landing the plum,
the Nevada Senators have recon-
mended Kunz for the position of
land attorney to the Interstate Com
merce Commission, the main duties
of which will be to act as counsellor
and advisor to the appraisal COM
mittee of that department, with
headquarters on the Pacific coast.
The position carries with it not
only a big lot of responsibility, but
salary in excess of that of the
Federal Attorneyship of this dis
trict. Kunz has formally accepted
the position. Carson Appeal.

Perishable Goods
By Parcel Post

Amendments to the parcel post
regulations are noted in recent or
ders from the department at Wash
ington touching particularly on the
extension of the use of the parcel
post system to perishable commod-
tiles.
Heretofore the regulations have
ordered everything placed in sacks
that could go into sacks, regardless
of its qualities, whether perishable
or otherwise, as long as it would not
injure other mail matter. The new
order, it is stated by Postmaster
Broy, provides for keeping fruits,
vegetables, eggs. butter and similar
articles, outside the mail sacks, thus
transporting them in fairly good
condition to their destination.

Wilson Accepts Mediation
Congress Eager For War

Chairman Flood and Representative
Cooper of the House Committee on
Foreign Affairs to discuss the new
turn in events.
Not Sanguine Of Success
From those at the conference it
was learned that while the President
was not sanguine of the success of
the intermediation plan, he felt it to
be the duty of the American Govern
ment to avail itself of the offer of
the three great South American coun-
tries. 1t was suggested that the ne
gotiations, even though they might
be unsuccessful, might serve to re-
press anti-American outbursts and
afford an opportunity for Americans
to depart from Mexico.
Congress Favors More Drastic Course
Washington, April While the
semi-peace moves are in operation at
the White House and the State De-
partment, there is an impelling un-
dercurrent of feeling in both Senate
and House for declaration of war.
Leaders in Congress for several
days had been informally discussing
the necessity for an unequivocal dec
laratiou of war. for asweeping cam
paign in Mexico and for the ultimate
establishment, by force. of American
arms. of peace. and constitutional
government in the battle-torn re-
public.
No swell from the undercurrent
reached the surface to-day, however,
but Congressman in both Houses
had predicted that storm would
break on Monday or as soon as Amer
lean troops reached Vera Cruz to
support the naval forces there.
Although there was evidence of
the feeling of dissatisfaction with
present conditions in the Senate,
probably the most remarkable evil
dence of unrest was given in the
House.
During a day devoted, under the
surface, to discussion of Mexico,
most of the leaders were in confer
ence and sentiment developed was
strongly in favor of war.
The discussion was so outspoken
that there was talk for a time of the
appointment of a committee, to con-
sist Of Speaker Clark and Underwood,
to call upon Presidedt Wilson and in
form him that the sentiment of the
House was for war.

Pleasant Homes In the Valley

About three years ago H. G. Wede-
kind of Eureka located desert claim
in the edge of the valley just below
the old milling plant, where he now
has 20 acres under fence and under
cultivation, which is mostly seeded
to alfalfa, and as it is the first green
spot in the valley as it is approached
from Hamilton, it presents an un-
usually attractive appearance. Mr..
Wedekind was possessed of but linn
tied means when he settled on the
land, hence by sheer energy he has
wrested a home from the desert,
which heretofore grew only sage
brush.
The next ranch in the valley is
that of VIM. Robinson, who first
made his home there about 1S years
ago. He has a comfortable resi-
dence surrounded by the finest trees
in the entire valley. He also has
much alfalfa and two good orchards.
He is a breeder of fine horses and
also has cattle on the range.
The next place of Importance is
that of w. M. Smith, who has been
36 years in the valley and 81 years at
his present location. He has about
5000 trees, of his own planting,
mostly fruit trees, growing on the
place, and about 200 acres in cult
vation. He also has a comfortable
home surrounded with shade trees
and gardens. He has the finest or
chard in the entire valley, and his
fruit, especially peaches, is noted for
its fine flavor throughout eastern
Nevada. Many of his fruit trees are
now in bloom and give promise of a
bountifuI harvest. provided they are
not caught by a late frost. Mr..
Smith was injured by an accident
last Fall, from which he has not en-
tirely recovered, but he is up and
around" and doing more work than
any man on the ranch. Bills moth
ing if not goer.
The west side ranch of w. A.
Moore comes next as one proceeds on
UP the valley. 1t is brick struc-
ture of considerable proportions, al
so surrounded with fruit and shade
trees. Mr.. Moore is the most exten-
sive property owner in the valley,
and in addition to his farming enter
prises he is engaged in the sheep and
cattle industry on an extensive scale.
His home ranch is on the east side
of the valley, the two places being
connected by private telephone line.
Simonsen brothers are now the
owners of the celebrated Cold Creek
ranch, which was settled by their
father, the late N. Simonsen, about
thirty years ago. They have large
and pleasantly situated ranch home.
with 1900 acres under fence, and with
an abundance of water to cultivate
every acre of it. Cold Creek is a
stream which rushes down from the
mountains. and flows strong for the
entire year. They have several hun
dred acres in cultivation and practi-
cally all of the remainder of their es-
tate is meadow land. They are
engaged principally in agricultural
pursuits. They have one of the best
ranches in the entire county. which
is an incentive to others who are
struggling to wrest homes from the
desert.

ESTABLISHED 1870
BY ASSOCIATED PRESS

Washington, April 25.-While the
leaders of Congress had been decid-
ing during all day conferences that
more drastic measures against Mex
leo were essential, and when they had
reached conclusion practically that
Wilson must make an out and out
war declaration, Pan-American dip
lomacy tonight made its first at
tempt to solve the Mexican crisis by
peaceful negotiation.
The United States Government ac-
cepted from Argentina, Chile and
Brazil a former offer to act as inter-
mediaries in the present situation,
but reservedly pointed out that an
act of aggression by the military
forces or hostile demonstrations to-
ward Americans might upset hopes
of immediate peace.
Preparation To Go On
Coincidentally with the acceptance
of the offer of mediation, Admins
tration officials announced there
would be no cessation of prepara-
tions by the army and navy for fu-
ture emergencies, and no orders
would be issued to the naval forces
now at Vera Cruz or the ships at
sea changing original plans. No
further steps, however, to secure
reparation for the indignities which
gave rise to the present situation
will be attempted while the effort
is being made to bring about set
tlement through diplomacy.
The Brazilian, Argentine and Chill
ian ENJOYS transmitted the United
States acceptance of their proposal
to the Spanish Ambassador, who i'm
mediately sent it by cable to the
Spanish Legation at Mexico City for
presentation to General Huerta.
General Carranza. head of the
Constitutionalists, was informed of
it through his representatives here.
Diplomats Await Replies
The three diplomats later announc-
ed no further steps would be taken
by them until replies had been re-
ceived.
Although the offer made by the
three South American countries did
not reveal their plans, it was learned
that they contemplate broad set
tlement of the Mexican problem
through the elimination of Huerta,
upon which the United States has in
sisted from the beginning.
Notification of the offer of media
ton was sent not only to the diplo-
matte representatives of Argentina,
Chile and Brazil in Mexico City, but
to General Carranza and the Consti-
tutionalists in Northern Mexico.
President Wilson tonight sum-
moned to the White House Senators
