THE MEXICAN REFUGEES
Why They Arc Held by the United
States Government.

While the battle Of Ojinaga was in
progress early in January about thirty
fve hundred Mexican federal soldiers
under the command Of General Mer-
cado stampeded across the Rio Grande
into the United States and surrendered
to the border patrol. BY an express
provision Of the convention of The
Hague belligerent troops received by
neutral power are to be informed.
consequently, after they had been adj
mitted the United States government
could not allow them to leave without
violating the laws of neutrality.
The Mexican soldiers were followed
by about fifteen hundred women and
children, many Of whom had been
widowed and orphaned during the
battle. They were a motley. helpless
crowd of human beings, i'll clad
and half starved. A number Of the
soldiers were suffering from serious
wounds and the majority of the
women and children were i'll from
fright and exhaustion. By order of
President Wilson the refugee soldiers
were disarmed and interned, and ar
rangements were made to send them
to Fort Bliss, the big army post near
Ell Paso, Tex. After a day or two
on the border orders swere given for
a march to Maria, Tex, a town on
road. Then the Mexicans began their
journey to the promised land of food
and shelter. Nearly every family had
a dog, for the animals. terror stricken
by the noise of the battle, followed
their owners across the river. Those
who saw the march will never forget
the long train of human beings plod-

ding over The dusty roads of the Lone
Star state. Several stops were made
for rest and meals, and finally Maria
came in sight. There special trains
were in waiting, and after ride OF
several hours they arrived at Fort
Bliss, where the refugee soldiers, at
least, are likely to remain until peace
Is declared in Mexico.
Hundreds of people gather every day
outside the fence, some out Of curtos-
ity and otherss who have friends in
camp and are anxious to get a word
with them. Ell Paso has thousands
of voluntary refugees who have come
across the border to wait for peace,
and they are most interested in the
camp.
1t is costing Uncle Sam about 500
per day to feed and house these un-
fortunate people from our sister re-
public over the river and there are
grave doubts as to whether the money
will ever be repaid. 1t is merely an
incident in the history of our great
nation in its care and aid to the peo-
pie of a weaker country where unut-
terable suffering seems to be the prin-
cipal heritage.

POLICE, AFTER YEARS, FINALLY
LAND BILLY RAIN

LAND BILLY RAIN
The police seem to have finally
gotten Billy Rain, II years old. He
has been held to. the grand jury for
the killing of John .Polzin, a laborer,
during a can-rushing spree in an al.
ley near Winchester and Armitage
avs.
Ever since the murder of GueIzow,
the peddler, in that neighborhood,
one of the poorest in that city, the
police have been chasing the kids.
There was no place for them to
go-no Fairgrounds and they were
hustled away from every corne ror
vacant lot they hesitated around. So
they were driven to the poolrooms
and the alleys, where they could hide
from the pohce-and then they learn
ed to shoot the can"
For the last few years Billy Rain
has been the prey of the cops. Every
complaint about kids that come into
the Rawson st. station was spur to
the cops to get Billy. .... -
They got him twice before-once,
a few years aga when Policeman
Jones was killed. Billy was brought
ina very fearful little boy in rag
gedy, short pants. But there was no
evidence on this outlaw" He was
freed.
Again a peddler was stabbed. The
police went out and nabbed Billy.
Again he went free.
But the police seemed to have won
at last. Yesterday, with his brother
and three youths, he drank beer in
an alley. safe from the cops, until
they became blind.
And then they went out into the
street until they met John Polzin, a
young laborer. Three shots flashed
out. And young Polzin fell to the
ground. He died later.
In addition to Billy, who is accused

f HIS SHARE.

The regional reserve banks opened last week, and
floating over the country somewhere are about four hun
dred millions of dollars in emergency currency-that is,
if we have the dope right. That would make about four
dollars for every man, woman and child in the country.
All this is in addition to the money that was alleged to be
in circulation before the regional banks opened. Now We
have been looking forward to the release of all this money,
expecting that we would, of course, get our four dollars.
But where is it? We said nothing about this last week
because we wanted to give William McAdoo and Paul
distribution.
But ten or eleven days have gone by and yet there is
nothing doing. This places Us in an embarrassing posi-
ton. We had learned that rhe Rock Island railway was
to have been put UP for sale at auction. and we expected
to be able to buy IL Now look AZ the hole we are in Any

is THE PRESIDENT A KING?

President Wilson is having renewed trouble with a
number Of Democratic senator's over the distribution OF
patronage. The senator's maintain that they should be
permitted to name the important appointive officers in
their respective districts, or at least be consulted before
such appointments are made. The president has been
Following the recommendations of his son-in-aw, Secre-
tary McAdoo. Because the senator's protest and threaten
to prevent confirmation of appontees thus chosen, some
ardent newspaper supporters of the president proclaim
in large type that these senator's are reactionary.
1t seems that a fairer way of putting it would be, us
the president invested with kingly powers, and under no
obligation to counsel with his party's leaders?"
Who made Woodrow Wilson president? These self
same "reactionary" senator's had an important part in it.
He was not the choice of a majority of his party's leaders.
Champ Clark had that honor, and by all the rules that
underlie popular government should have been the nomi-
nee. Underwood and Bryan went to Wilson in order to
bring personal benefit to themselves-a political trade"

an act which abhors Wilson's supporters when the fruits
of the trade are not toward increasing his power.
Wilson's overzealous supporters cvry machine rule
and "reactionary," apparently forgetting that there can
be no difference, SO far as the public is concerned, between
a Wilson machine or an OnGorman machine. Both are
calculated to retain their respective leaders in power.
Ii anyone elevated to power becomes the one solely af-
fected-if he becomes the whole government-then a re-
publican form of government means nothing. The right
of consideration belongs to every man who is affected by
appointments made by the president, and to deny them
such has only ~selfshness as its motive.

WOULD BE IMPORTANT If TRUE.

The Power County News was much exercised recently
because the county commissioners had leased quarters for
county Offices, court room and jail purposes, for a period
of five years at an annual rental of $3.50, claiming that
they could have had the old school building for 81 a year.
and thus have saved the county at least $4,000. This is
pure Democratic reasoning, and fallacious because:
tIrSt-The rent for the full term of five years is only
$1,000.
Second-It will cost more money to put the old school
building in repair and arrange it for Offices than will te
expended upon the new building, by at least $3.50.
Third-The old school building is large enough to ac-
commodate but three officers, the clerk, treasurer, and as
SCISSOR, and a vault to protect their records. This would
leave the county superintendent, the probate judge, the
sheriff, the county attorney and surveyor scattered over
the town, in rooms that would cost at least $50 per month.
or $4,000 for the term of the lease, with no protection for
their records unless additional vaults were built.
Fourth-A court room and Jail would have had t. ie
provided and put in shape if the old school building had
been taken, A court room might be rented at q cost ~
$500 a year, provided an empty building was always at
hand. A building large enough and secure enough for
a jail would cost at least 81 800.
Fifth-The old school building is in such condition
that the school board deems It a matter of economy to rent
quarters elsewhere than to repair it. The lowest bid they
had for putting it into shape for school purposes was S1035
Add the cost Of partitions to this and it makes at least as
much as two years rent will cost the county. The schoci
board could have use of the building as long as it stands
by merely repairing it, yet they consider that the small
ness of the building will not justify the expense In the
interest of a, square deal to the public, if the News is sin
cere, it should either censure the school board or apolG
gize to the commissioners. The commissioners looked at
the old school building, and like the school board, consiGI
cred that it was inadequate for the purpose.
Sixtn-The News questions the right of the commits
sioners to lease quarters for a longer time than their term
OF office. BY what peculiar process of reasoning, then,
does it contend that the school board has this right.
Seventh-The estimated item of $1,000 for new furni-
ture for the new quarters has no place in the consideration
of expense, for the reason that it is too high to begin with,
and would be no more for the quarters leased than would
have been required had the school building been taken.
The same is true of Jail cells, they will cost the same. 10
