ATHENS, March 12.-Smyrna, one
Of the principal cities of Asia Minor,
around which the interest of the
world has been centered since the be-
ginning of the bombardment of the
Dardanelles, has refused to surrender
to the allied feet. Situated as it is,
at the head of the Gulf of Smyrna,
on the AEGEAN Sea, It is port which
is desirable to the allies and for the
last few days their attentions have
been directed towards 1t. The city
will not be surrendered, however, and
the garrison announces that 1t will
fight to the last breath in it's de-
fense. The harbor at Smyrna is one
Of the finest in the world and has
been closed since last fall. 1t was
here that one of the land batteries

U. S. cruiser Tennessee in October.
The reason was given at the time that
the harbor was mined and the Ten
nessee was in danger if the entrance
was attempted.
The estimated population of Smyr-
ma is 100000.

MEXICO CITY, March 12.-The
first outrage against an American
citizen was committed in Mexico City
today when John b McManus, a
prominent citizen of the United Stat
es was murdered. McManus was kill
ed by mob which has had control
of the capital since the evacuation of
the city by Obregon and it's occupa-
ton by Zapata. After the killing a
riot ensued and scenes of the widest
excitement were general in all parts
of the city. The British embassy was
looted and the building almost demol-
ished. The royal palace, formerly oc-
cupied by such notable men in Mexi-

Madero and General Huerta, was mob

WRITERS AGREE THAT ROUTE
THROUGH ELko COUNTY is
BEST FOR TRANscoNTINEnTAL
TOURISTS.
ROADS ARE BETTER OVER THIS
ROUTE THAN OVER ONE TO
THE SOUTH AS ARE AccoMMo-
DATIoNS.
(BY GEORGE ADAMS)

Automobile eyes of easter America
are gazing westward. Tourists who
have not even toured out of their own
state are planning to see the fairs in
California in 1915 and use their auto
mobiles as a means of transportation.
There will be large cars and small
ones.
lnexperience in extensive touring
will bring about much annoyance to
many who attempt the Journey.
There will be surprises to these tour
lists never before heard of. The trip
will develop information for many
a-day discussions when the traveller
reaches his home town. Praise will
be placed upon the automobile and
the roads, and incidentally, the roads
anl the automobiles will be cursed.
1t Will all be a matter of luck; be-
sides the weather king will have much
to do with the experiences of these
tourists. If there are storms, the
percentage of grief will be higher:
II 1t Is a long, dry summer, dusty
highways will help the grief master.
However, if the eastern tourist will
but contemplate that western states,
having no more population than the
ordinary eastern city, have in some
cases four hundred and five hundred
miles OF road to maintain, and that
the money in the Golfers of the state
treasury are limited, they will ex.
cuse some bad stretches of road and
praise the western people for the
work they have done.
Experience has taught that, with
care, the traveller need have no fear
OF western road conditions. The same
applies to hotel, garage and supply
houses.
1t Is advisable, however. for the
traveller to follow as nearly as pos.
sible the route of the railroad, because
with the railroad comes population
and the best accommodations This is
especially true with the Lincoln
highway from Cheyenne, Wwo, to
Ogden and Salt Lake, but when these
points have been reached, touring au.
thorities in general agree that at the
present time the most advisable route
is the one north of the Great Salt
Lake, following the Southern Pacific
railroad to- Reno, where the Lincoln
highway is again picked up.
Beautiful Canyon.
At Ogden there ale good hotel ac.
commodations, garages and is gen.
eral supply point. Here, too, the
tourist may have a eide trip OF

for It's majestic natural beauty. The
