Washington, Sept. 6.-All United

As long as the Mexican raiders
continue to appear only in small
bands, it is understood they will not
be followed into their own territory.

commanders would not hesitate to
pursue the enemy until they were
completely routed should there be
anything like an organized invasion

ONE BUSINESS IS
HELPING OTHERS
Improvement in Trade World is Grad
uaI-PrOspects Are IL Will
Continue.

NEW YORK, Feb. 2O.-Bradstreets
review of trade conditions for the cur
rent week, Saturday says:
Fundamental factors continue to
mend, but for the time being the in
creasing pace Of industrial operations
seems TO loom larger than does dis
tributive trade, which manifests some
iTregularity. but with retrOgression in
one part of the country offset by pro-
erosion in other sections. The speed
ing up process in industrial pursuits
is not marked, nor does it cover Il
multitude OF lines, but il is OF steady
cumulative type. with a tendency to
reach out and embrace one industry
after another.
Though the broad movement is ia
vorable there are a number Of indus
tries which still lag, the coal, lumber.
anG liquor trades being conspicuous in
this respect. ON the other hand tex
tile and wooden mills, shipbuilding
yards and plants making up war or
ders are busy. Operations In the au-
tomObile industry as we'll as in the fin
ished steel trade are increasing.
The railroads are preparing to
take on more men and all in all the
week has witnessed further diminutiOn
in the numbers Of unemployed. COun-
try trade is held up by poor roads or
preparations for. spring planting.
Some of the leading markets have
been favored by the presence OF visit
ing buyers.
THE situation this season Is bOls-
tered by the fact that the cereal agri-
cultural communities are prosperous
owing 10 high prices Winter wheat
crop conditions are excellent Export
trade in wheat continues very heavy,
the oversee movement Of cotton is
fairly good. Railway traffic in the
west is quite heavy, earnings tend to
increase and eastern roads are expect
ing increased profits from recently
rate incrass.
The opening of the Panama exposi-
ton at San Francisco will stimulate
travel TO the Pacific coast. Money is
easy. collections slow in the south,
and fair TO good in favored parts Of
the west but in general they are not
above fair.

Chief But Here is the Report

The swings will probably all De
placed in POttawatomie park, accord
ing to the uncensored wireless. one
company was represented personally
at the meeting, the salesman bring
with him a sample bench which was
closely inspected by the park board.
one member suggested that the arms
of the bench be removed but 1t was
believed by others that the arms
would prevent much sleeping on the
benches.
They Want TO Know.
Walter Erler. president Of the
Studebaker club, and X. g. Turk,
treasurer, represented the school or
ganization before the board. The
civic club members were anxious 10
know what steps we're being planned
by the board for improving Stude-
baker park and the vicinity. Mr..
Perley with some slight assistance
from Mr.. Elbel, explained TO the COM
mittee that every effort was being
made to improve the park. Grading
and other identifying methods were
being used on the land, according to
Mr.. Perley.
In a previous report TO the board
early in the meeting, according TO the
wireless. Mr.. Perley stated upon in
employed at the Studebaker park at
this time and that there was enough
work TO last there for at least an
other week. He also reported that
the men had been employed on vari-
Gus boulevards in the city before 60
ing to the park.
Assessment Is Heavy.
There was some comment, accord
ing to the wireless. when Assistant
Censor Perley showed the park board S
share Of the Bowman Greek sewer as
sessment which amounts to a large
sum, not named in the message. Mr..
Perley suggested that someone would
have to take the assessment question
up with the board of public works,
intimating that ii was a bit heavy.
Chief Censor Elbel will represent the
park board before the board OF pub
lie works, since he is the president
of the honorable body.
The matter of hiring assistants to
care for the parks this wear was also
discussed, Mr.. Perley, says the wire
less, needing help in certain lines of
the work. Mr.. Elbel during the dis
cuSsiOn OF the PottawatOmie park stu
alton expressed the hope that the bill
now pending before the legislature
would go through, stating that he was
not certain that the contract with the
county would hold in a pinch.
