PRESIDENT WILSON ABOUT
TO MAKE 1T OUR BUSINESS
Determined That Rival Factions in
Mexico Shall Respect Person and
Property of Foreigners.

President Wilson has determined
that all the rival factions in Mexico
shall be compelled, if necessary, not
only to respect the lives and property
of foreigners, but to insure freedom
of commercial communication between
the United States and its southern
neighbor.
This policy enunciated in the last
two notes sent to Gen Carranza con-
corning the situation at Mexico City,
was further developed by the dispatch
of a communication informing the
Mexican chief that unless the gum
boat Zaragoza was recalled from its
attempted blockade Of the port of
Progreso, the president of the United
States would be constrained to issue
instructions" to the commander of
the armored cruiser Des MONIES to
prevent any interference" with Ameri-
can ships going to or from the port.
The purpose of this note apparently
was achieved before it reached Vera
Cruz, for the navy department re-
ceived word today that the Zaragoza
had put back to Vera Cruz ION ac-
count of the stress of weather" The
opinion of officials is that there will
be no further attempt to blockade.

REV. w. M. CASE SAYS
JITNEYS BRING GOOD ROADS

Rev, Mr.. Case in speaking of his
trip east, declared that the Jitneys
are harbingers of good roads.
When | think of many roads
have travelled over" said Mr.. Case,
Il am reminded of the remark of a
young missionary who in speaking
of the roads in the interior of Japan
said it is better to draw a veil over
them; in fact, that is about all you
could draw over them
"One of the things that impressed
me most strongly was the Jitney
They were everywhere and for the
lowly nickle would take one nearly
any place. In a county paper | no.
tlced an article saying that a few
years past many people thought they
had most excellent investment in
the interurban stock; now thev are
beginning to doubt it. The paper drew
comparison between the cost of
binding an inturban at $l0,0000O a
mile and that of building irst-class
highway-from $500 to $1,000 a mile.
The improved highway means Jitneys
and rapid travel in all directions.
IF our highways were in better
condition, we would not feel the need
OF additional interurban facilities.
Jltneys would soon be plying be-
tween Caldwell and Roswell, Deer
Flat and all the surrounding towns
and communities.
When the Jitney comes to Cald-
well we will have good roads"

A HINT TO FARMERS.

Ii the American farmer is wise he
will make his plans during the winter
to plant every acre he possesses next
spring to corn, beans. peas and other
crops which have good keeping quail
ties. Never in the worlds history has
there been greater demand for food
stutfs and this demand will constantly
increase as the war goes on. Even
when it is over all of the countries
now engaged will find themselves des-
titute and they will have only the
western world toward which to turn
for succor.
Now is the time for farmers to be
rolling up their sleeves and making
preparations for the biggest and hard
est years work they ever did. for
there is money in it this year sue III as
there never was before. With halt
the men of the world at war the other
half must grow food for the entire
globe. and with the shortage in food,
prices will be enormous. Go it now

the harvest that America is to reap

young lady who assisted me while
was attending the picture show the
other evening. Being directly be-
hind me she read aloud all the an
nouncements as they were thrown on
the screen and described the scenes
in a loud. clear voice, and | was much
impressed. She, being tendcr-hearted
and seeing that was near-sighted.
conferred that favor upon me. She
is my idea of what a young lady of
sixteen years ought to be. She is
not one of your shy little things who
is afraid to speak out loud. 1t was
! vast help to me because | didn't
have to look at the screen at all

over the audience and hear the pic
lures at the same time. A gentleman
in front of me seemed to be bothered
quite a bit because he kert turning
around, and finally he got up and left
the theatre. | noticed that it bother
ed the young lady who was befriend-
ing me, too, but assured her he had
no reference to her. In order to fully

BOYES RESPONDS To THE
DEMANDS OF THE
COMMUNITY

Mr.. F. c. Boyes will accept nomi-
nation for mayor of the City Of Cald-
well. When seen by a representative
of The Tribune yesterday, Mr.. Boyes
made the following statement:
IL deeply appreciate the response
on the part of the public to the sug-
gestion made in The Tribune that
| am available as candidate for
mayor. Any number of persons of
all stations have asked me since the
suggestion was first made. feel
that should not ignore the solicita-
ton of friends and citizens nor deny
the CITY of Caldwell any service which
| can perform. | realize the obliga-
tons which the Office imposes; the
duties which it involves; the oppor-
tunities which it presents; and the
honors which it confers.
"All that | can say is that if nomi-
mated and elected | will accept and
earnestly strive to give the city the
best that is in me. The gentlemen
suggested for the council all meet
with my unqualified approval; it
would be an honor to be associated
in Office with such body of men,"

GOVERNOR SLICES THE GEM
DISTRICT APPROPRIATION
Still Practicing Economy at Expense
of State Interests.

Governor Alexander practically cut
the Gem Irrigation district appropria-
ton in two Wednesday. The original
bill sought to appropriate $46,432.O OF
in payment Of the states assessment
for the state lands in the district. The
governor cut the appropriation to
$23,432.07.
The question has been raised as to
his constitutional right to take such
action with the King Hill appropria-
ton, and it will probably be referred
to the supreme court for a ruling. The
decisicc in that case will settle the
question raised by the executive ac-
ton on the Gem bill. The attorney
general has expressed the opinion
that the governor exceeded his au-
thority on the King Hill bill which
he cut down last week.

WILL MONK is AT
HOME IN CALDWELL
Hastens Return Because of Mothers
Serious Condition; No Statement.

Will Monk, eX-treasurer of Canyon
county, returned here Tuesday morn
ing. For little more than FIVE weeks
Mr. Monk was taking care Of some
business matters and enjoying a va
cation at Kansas City, Mo.
Comes to See Mother.
Monk wrote from Kansas CITY two
weeks ago that he would return here
April l. He fastened his coming as
much as possible because of the acct
dent in which his mother, Mrs. w. J.
Monk, was severely scalded. She now
lies at the local hospital in a serious
condition, having shown little i'm
provement under the treatment re-
ceived.
The eX-treasurer had nothing to
say Tuesday about the numerous and
conflicting rumors regarding the
shape in which he left the books of
his office.
Bookkeeping Tangle Only.
Frinds OF Mr.. Monk have insisted
all along that he left nothing wrong
i'll the treasurer Office other than a
tangle in bookkeeping, and it is un-
derstood that he will remain right
here to assist in getting the various
accounts into correct form. In his
letter, made public through his attor-
ney two weeks ago, Mr.. Monk de-
clarcd that he would return to make
his home here.
The audit of the books of the treas
urers office, for which the commits
sionerS contracted with Clarence Van
Dcusen. must be started before April
|, according to terms of the contract.

Ticket Suggested.

Mr.. +. {. Boyes, according to his
statement which appears n
this issue of The Tribune
will accept the nomination for MAYOR.
Mr. Boyes is probably the strongest
man that could be put forward lie is
a capable business man and will give
to the city the same time, care and
attention that he devotes to his own
business. The opinion generally pre-
walls that a considerable saving can
be made in the cost of city govern
ment. Mr.. Boyes will do all in his
power to make the savings. He should
have with sympathetic council. Up-
on the council depends as much or
more S upon the mayor.
Keeping in mind the importance of
the council The Tribune suggests the
following members: First ward Fred
l.. Lilly and John G. Flynn; second
ward, J. H. Forbes and Dr. Thos. d.
Farrer; third ward. Fred Harrington
and O. r. Ackley
The Tribune believes that no fault
can be found with these men. They
will give their support to Mr.. Boyes
in providing good, economical city
government. They are men of SCUM /
Judgment and are willing to give their
time to the affairs OF the office. We
claim that the proposed ticket this
far is strong, represent tive and ac-
ceptable
Other position of Importance ar
those O. city cler,;. city t-easur and
city engineer. The contemplated
change in the work of thu treasurer's
office demands that a most comDe.-
ent person be elected. Fer this posi-
ton we suggest Miss OPAL Stewart.
The changes ~ the wort which were
suggested by Councilman Adams and
others are TO tai" some OF the work
now belonging Ia the water works
departm"nI AMI give it % the city
treasurer. This will enable the city
to pay the city treasurer a fair salary
and at the same time save TWENTY-FIVE
or thirty dollars a month However,
It must be borne in mind that in or
der to do this most competent per
son must be elected city treasurer.
The city engineer can save the city
hundreds of dollars annually il com
petent and SO disposed Mr.. Guy Nc
Gee is in sympathy with every effort
to save money in all departments. He
has given considerable attention to
the Office during the past few years,
probably more than Engineer McCon-
nell, whose other duties take consid-
cradle time.
The office of greatest Importance is
that of city clerk. Mr. James +.
Boone's experience training and
qualifications for the Office are not
open to question. He will prove a
popular candidate and an efficient of
6cer.
The Tribune has tried to suggest
only candidates who are qualified
who are willing and who are avail
able. The commentator given the
persons should not be taken as being
withheld from other persons. There
are undoubtedly other men and wo-
men in Caldwell who would do as
we'll as these. II any others should
be nominated The Tribune will not
feel bad because we know in advance
that others have suggestions to make
aud that their suggestions and desires
are equally meritorius OF earnest con
sideration.
