The fifth annual convention of
the Columbia and Snake River
Waterways association will be held
in Portland April 13 and IA and

has been granted by the railroads.
The formal call for the convention
is being sent of by Geo. F. Richard
son, president of the association,
and Secretary Struble, who has
temporary quarters in the Portland
Chamber of Commerce. The call
recites that the business of the as
sociation at its fifth annual conven-
ton will be of great Importance in
its bearing up the various aspects of
waterway improvements in the Pa
cific northwest" and urges tn e
sending of delegates to the con-
ton by the commercial bodies hold

as well as the full attendance so far
as possible of individual members. :"

Portland at this time is timely in
view OF its probable effect upon i'm
portant waterway legislation now
pending in congress, and every ef-
fort will be made both by the COM
mittee and the officers of the as
sociation to enlist a representative
attendance.

PLAN To ADVERTISE VALLEY
THROUGH 1.-THE MOVIES

The publicity committee of the
Commercial Club have hit upon a
scheme which will put Kennewick
on the map for sure if it can be
worked out. They propose that
the club invest in a moving picture
camera, hire an operator and take
pictures of Kennewick valley activ-
tiles during the growing, harvesting
and marketing seasons.
The committee has not gone into
the details of the plan far enough
to learn the cost of having the films
made or the chances of getting them
shown after they are produced. II
is thought possible that the pictures
could be placed on the smaller cir.
cults of the middle west if enough
feature matter be worked into the
reels to make them of live interest
to the average theatre -goer.

CHOSEN
FOR DIRECTOR
School Election Brings Out Big
Vote-Mounsey will
Take CIerkship

E. O. Keene, of the Highlands,
won an easy victory at the school
election last Saturday, polling more
votes than both his opponents to-
gether. A day or so before election
W. G.. King announced his with
drawal from the race; MI! Soth
having withdrawn earlier in the
week. Mr.. Keene had been spoken
of as candidate, but he had not
announced his candidacy IN til
Thursday night.
There was an unusually large
number of votes for school election,
six hundred twenty-three going to
the polls. OF this number Mr..
Keene secured 313, Mr.. Annis 254
and Mr.. Newkirk 4S. Three of the
ballots were thrown out because the
intention of the voter was not clear,
while one lady signed her name.
The school board is now COM
posed of H. E. Owen, who has
another year to serve, R. C. Noun
sey with a two-year term YER Col
E. O. Keene. On Mr.. Annis Re-
tirement, the clerkship of the board
with its fifty dollars a month, will
60 to Mr.. Mounsey. OF course this
matter of the clerkship is wholly up
to the members of the board, but
both Owen and Mounsey have said
that the clerkship does not 60 to a
new member-and Dick is going to
vote for r. C. M. Mr.. Mounsey
has served two years and q half.
and the matter is settled-unoficial-
ly.
Mr.. Keene's election will not
mean any radical change in the
manner of handling the schools, ncxf
will any effort be made to chang1'
superintendent. Mr.. Keene, OF
the contrary, states that he fa1ge =,
keeping Mr.. Lewis at the head of
the schools as long as he'll consent
to stay. As both old members of
the board concur in this opinion the
present superintendent will bts;x
vited to remain. WI

IMPROVE ROADS
ON MARCH "a
Business Houses to Close While
Men Don Overalls Ladies
to Serve Lunch

Tuesday, March "a, has been set
as Road Improvement Day in Ken
newick. On that date every busi-
ness house will be asked to close and
every able bodied male in town will
be expected to make himself useful
at the business end of a rake or
shovel.
The work, which will be under
the direction of the good roads COM
mittee of the Commercial Club, will
be distributed over the principal
highways leading to town. A CEN
sus Of the available workers will be
taken and the list divided and as
signed over several districts, each of
which will be in charge of a cap
tain or superintendent, similar to
the system followed couple of years
ago when the town turned out and
went tree planting. Luncheon will
be served at noon by the ladies.
DR.. Crosby, chairman of the COM
mittee, is enthusiastic over the pos
sibilities of the scheme, if both
farmers and business men will unite
and turn out with the determination
to do real days work. Il be-
lieve there will be big turnout of
the townspeople," he said, land if
the farmers will do their share by
furnishing teams, wagons and
scrapers we can work an amazing
improvement which will be worth
thousands Of dollars to this district.
We realize that the farmers will
be very busy with their own work,
but if they will just turn in and
help us this one day they will find
themselves repaid many times over
later in the season when they are
hauling their fruit to town over
smooth roads instead of over rocks
and chuckholes.
No one expects that we can make
any great reformation in the char
acter of our highways in one day,
but we can level up the holes, take
out rocks, fill up the spots where
irrigation water gathers, put straw
or sagebrush on the sandy stretches
and in dozen ways can smooth
out the roads to the profit of both
the farmer hauling his produce and
the town man in his auto.''

CLUB MEMBERS WILL EAT
LUNCHEON TOGETHER

Next Wednesday noon, at the
Hotel Kennewick, will be given
the first of series of Commercial
Club luncheons. It is hoped that
this first affair may be made so
much of a success that the lunch
cons may be held weekly or at
least semi-monthly hereafter.
The scheme of having the busi-
ness men get together at a lunch
con occasionally has met with
great favor and has become an
established feature in nearly every
place where it has been tried. At
Prosser the luncheons have been
held regularly for some time and
through the medium of the feeds
the spirit of the Commercial Club
has been notably livened.
Nearly all members who were
present at the last meeting of the
club signifed that they would at
tend the luncheon. Those who
have not already done so are
asked to notify E. w. Trenbath,
chairman of the entertainment
committee, not later than Tues
day evening, if they expect to be
present Wednesday. The cost will
be 35 cents per plate.

Fire of Unknown Origin De stroys Contents, Leaving Walls Standing of One of Oldest Phoenix Office Buildings
FIRE HAD MANY
 HIDING PLACES
Fighting It Was Like Con lining Quicksilver-Smoke
 Does More Hurt Than Fire, and Water Com pleted Damage

The almost total destruction by fire, water and smoke of the contents of the Creighton building last night was a fitting end to a day of excite ment over the Mexican situation When the alarm was given and the fire was seen in the sky, immense crowds gathered to watch what has been, perhaps. the meanest small fire that has ever perpleXed the Phoenix department.
 When the hosemen first arrived shortly after midnight, the back yard accoutrements of the Creighton build ing were q mass of roaring flames Great solid looking chunks of thick yellow smoke poured from the win dows of the offices on the second floor and from the crevice between the masonry of the Creighton building and the Elite rooming house next door on the north.
 The second story porch in the rear was the ladder by which the flames had crept into the upper rooms, and also the means of transmitting the fire to the rooming house. There was a grand rush of occupants to the street. Kimonaed women. and men in equally scart attire, surged into the streets dragging their effects. No one was left in the building.
 Meanwhile the firemen were put ting water Intellectually on what seemed the worst of the fire. Each place they drenched seemed the log ical source of the blaze, and for a time each attempt was unsuccessful The main portion of the blaze played hide and seek between cellar and cell ing, in walls. under floors, around cor ners, until. by series of lucky shots and by sheer weight of water, it was quenched.
 The fire started back of the Im- perial lunch room. It was evidently originated among the crates and bar rels that had carried produce to the restaurant It climbed the porch sup ports and gained the back office rooms. Smoke poured through the of fees, blackening their contents, which were later rendered still more dis reputable by the water Not single blaze entered the lunch room, which was also filled with smoke. Next to the lunch room was the Owl barber shop, 1 just across the stair entrance. The chairs and equipment were dragged l into the street and saved from dam age by water and smoke. The Valley meat market was similarly deprived of it's fixtures by police and specta = 1 tors.
 | Groups of men and women in deshabille filled the streets. In one corner was observed a woman count ing her jewels by the light of match i held by a spectator. She had them tied up in a handkerchief.
 There was no loss of life and no one hurt, for the fire was discovered

ASSOCIATED PRESS DISPATCH l

CALEXIC O. April 22-Unless he receives further orders from Mexico City, Col. Juan Lajero, commandant of the federal garrison at Mexicali, will not attack the American troops or disturb American property. On the contrary, he is prepared to CO., operate with Captain Arthur Poillon, commanding Troop D, in maintaining order; but if the Americans try to invade Lower California, he will fight.
 Col. Lajero called J. B. Hoffman, justice of the peace at CaleXico, to the Mexican side to make a state ment. The Mexican commander said he had strengthened the Mexican guard at Sharps Heading. the intake of the big Imperial Valley irrigating system, to prevent any wanton dam age. Lajero said he had acted to prevent irresponsible persons of either country doing damage-to prevent the blame being attached to the Mexican authorities.
 Many residents of CaleXico place confidence in Col Lajero's statement, because if the canal is damaged and water cut off the Mexican garrison will suffer as much as the residents of the Imperial valley.
 American cavalrymen are encamped at what is considered the most strate- gic position in CaleXico, about half mile from the border out of sight of MexicaIi. The situation is believed admirable for a flank movement on the Mexican troops, should they attack CaleXico.

require a movement nn Mexico City. Beyond the holding of Vera Cruz and the railroad the Washington government does not want to act at present, but persons in the confidence of the administration admit that ac- tion by Huerta or Carranza at any time may alter the plans Fears for the Americans in Mexico City and other parts of the troubled republic are expressed in many quarters The house promptly passed the bill ap- propriating five hundred thousand dollars to care for the refugees The fact that nothing has been heard from O'Shaughnessy for nearly forty eight hours made the president and Secretary Bryan uneasy. Early to- night unofficial communication with Shaughnessy was established, but the apprehension has not been al layed as there is little information about the temper of the Huerta gov ernment or the people of Mexico City since the capture of Vera Cruz. In this connection a high government official made public a letter from a friend whom he regarded as trust worthy, which read, T have it on reliable authority from a man arriv- Ing from Mexico City that Huerta personally with the Mexican foreign minister planned the Tampico incl dent with a view of bringing an armed intervention and uniting the Mexican factions with him" The same official expressed the view that Huerta delayed the answer to the United States for a salute pending the arrival of a big shipment of am intuition on German vessel. Secre- tary Bryan said that the status of O'Shaughnessy and Charge AIgara Is unchanged so far as he knew. Algara has had, however. notifica ton from his government that he may leave Washington when he deems it advisable. This is regard ed as possibly forecasting Huerta' s giving passports to 0'Shaughness-- The United States will not withdraw W . Shaughnessy unless he himself re- ports it advisable for Washington wants to maintain as long as possi- Die representative in Mexico City to care for American interests there.
 Although international lawyers and many in congress are not sure what the diplomatic relations of the United States toward Mexico are, whether a state of war" exists without decla ration to that effect or whether as many precedents have shown, the pres ent situation is to be merely an act of reprisal short of war" there is nc doubt that relations between the Hu- erta de facto government and the Unit ed States have been broken.
 If necessary, arrangements may be made with some other foreign legations
 at Mexico City to look out for the in terests of the United States and trans init such communications as may be necessary to the Huerta government. Volunteers for service in Mexico vii not be called for unless there is a for
 maj declaration of war by congress This was announced in the house today by Chairman Hay of the house military affairs committee.

ALL |s QUIET
 ALONG TURG|O COLORADO RIVER
Arizona State Troops Will Shortly Be Relieved by Regulars Ord cred to Yuma River-Local Com panies Busy Recruiting

All is quiet along the Colorado to- night Quiet has reigned along the levees of the river that divides Cali fornia from Arizona and partly from Mexico, and the Arizona troops which were turned out in the shades of eve ming the night before last have had little to do but walk their beats and watch the hours pass.
 In accordance with the request of Governor Hunt the war department lieve the state troops on duty at the international border and within q day or two there will be two com panies of coast artillery on the north back of the Colorado west of Yuma while one troop of cavalry from Fort Huachuca will be on duty on the Arizona side of the muddy sream. As soon as these troops arrive the state troops will be ordered back to quarters and paid off.
 Correspondence by wire yesterday y between Governor Hunt and the wal department revealed but little of in terest that was neH. An answer was received early in the day from Gen. eral Trasker H. Bliss at Fort Sam Houston, Texas, stating that protec- tion for the border at Yuma would be supplied by the western division Adjutant General Harris later re- ceived word that the colored trooper.
