RIVER BREAKS BOUNDS.
Colorado Levcos Give Way and the
Mojayo Reservation Is Flooded

SAN BERNARDINO. Cal. June IA.
The government lcYecs protecting
the Moi1vc reservation from the Col
orado rive broke late Tuesday, ac-
cording to a despatch from Needles.
The floods swept through village
and the Indians were forced to Zee for
their lives. Livestock left behind was
drowncd.
The crest of the food apparently
has passed Needles, but has made the
situation there critical as it caused
the current to shift and eat into tn,
banks. The river stood at % feet al
Topock, the highest stage ever record
ed there.
At Beale, on the Santa Fe river
six miles below Needles, the river
was level with the top of the dixie and
was flooding houses.

MAKING TEST PARCEL
POST PACKAGE WEIGHT
Local Postal Clerks Securing Data on
Number Of Pieces and Amount
Handled.

The postoffice clerks are having busy
days now. as every parcel post package
which goes out of the office is being
carefully weighed pursuant TO orders
issued by The department at Washing,
ton. This weighing will be continued
for fifteen days, and Postmaster Noble
Warrum will then send report to
Washington.
The object of this weighing is to get
an estimate from every office in the
country OF the number and weight of
parcel post packages handled during
the fifteen days. 1t is understood that
the postmaster general intends issuing
an order soon increasing the maximum
weight of parcel post packages in the
first and second zones from fifty to
100 pounds and of parcels outside these
zones to fifty pounds.
1t is also proposed to increase the
pay of carriers on star routes and other
routes where much parcel post matter is
handled, The government will be able
TO determine from the weight results
what would be an equitable scale for
the carriers and when the increase TO
100 pounds is feasible.

barely lodged past one of the heavy
fire department cars.
Finally, street car 431 bumped into
the big ladder truck, denting one OF
the steel stays of the nozzle fixed to the
top of the ladder. Just before the car
crossed the intersection going down
Main street, the truck turned into Main
and stopped in front of the Owl drug
store, from which place the alarm was
turned in. To change the position OF
the truck, the chauffeur started to back
up and the ladder projecting far out
at the back overhung the car track. Mo-

TO DISCUSS OUTLOOK
Big Gathering to Consider
Party Policies Will Be
Held in City Today.

Democrats from all sections Of the

tion conference today, at which "party
policies will be discussed Those eli.
gible to attend the meeting are mem
bcrs Of the state committee, county
chairmen and precinct chairmen. This
calls for an attendance of about 150
The meeting is to be business ses-
sion and no speeches have been arranged
for. State Chairman Samuel r. Thur
man is expected to deliver a short adj
dress, stating the conditions of affairs
in the state organization on the eve of
the state campaign. The other addresses
that may be made will be extempor.
aneous and will doubtless be brought
out through discussion Of the mooted
questions to come before the meeting.
Fusion with the Progressives will
doubtless be discussed to some extent,
though it is not probable that any defi-
mite action will be taken by the meet
ing with reference to the subject. Most
Of the Democrats here for the confer
ence strongly favor fusion and Will un-
doubtedly discuss it at the meeting.
1t seems more than likely that the
Democrats who attend the conference
will approve Of call Tor state con-
vention to be held early in june. The
apportionment of delegates will prob
ably be one for each seventy Demo
cratic votes in 1918
A definite policy with reference TO
the conduct of the Democratic party or
gan, which makes its first appearance
TODAY, will be discussed at the meet
ing. Arrangements will also probably
be made for canvass of all the voters
in the state, with view to classifyin
the voters and getting q line on the
Democratic strength in Utah prior to
the opening of the campaign.
