About that New High School
 Building

We have been asked if we intend to boost the proposed new high school building, this week, One little incident at the mass meeting Friday night, has caused us to take a second thought. That is the placing of the estimated increase in the rate of taxation at one cent on the thousand dollars. Incredi ble as it seems, this estimate was re- ceived by the audience without question. The mistake was due to hasty figuring under the press of of the moment. When we later awoke to the fact that the actual increase would amount to one dol lar and ten cents on the thousand, instead of one cent, we stopped for 2 second thought. An increased of one hundred per cent in estimated cost may we'll cause tax payer to take second thought.
 The News is willing to pay it's share of the tax for a new building at the above rate, but is not pre- pared as yet, to give its full en- dorsement to the proposition. The old taxpayers of the town should be he 1rd from, first.

Beautiful Decorations

The Christmas decorations with which the various Williams mer- chants have beautified their win dows are worthy of special mention. The News would take pleasure in commenting upon them in det ail but is unable to do 30 at this time from the fact that the Christmas rush has caught us, like others, and deprives us of the time and space necessary to do the subject justice. All of them are fine and are COIL elusive proof of the live spirit of our merchants.

It is reported by the New York American that seven of the new "I" type submarines built for Uncle Sam proved defective It is to be hoped that the finding of the defects in these is proof that in- spection has become what it should have been before and that no more defective submarines will prove death-traps for American sailors from mere want of proper inspec- ton.

HUNT GIVES UP PLAN ID VISIT
 FRISCO FAIR
Chief Executive Says Will Stand by Friend in Mo mcnt of Need, Character izcs Hangings as DaStard- ly Act

Rather than desert superintendent R. B. sims al the tine when he will re called upon to perform the most trying duty of his life. Governor Hunt has given up his trip 70 the Panama Pacific eN position at San Francisco next week.
 T will be here on J,ly 3o," declared the governor yesterday. Although | do not consider that I can do any thing. l am not the sort of inan who uould desert a friend at such grieE- GUS moment, when he is called upon to perform 2 dasJarIIy duty"
 July 39 and 90 have been set aside as Arizona day at the exposition. and it was 10 attend the celebration o- that occasion that tho governor had planned to leave the state. The fact that the reprieves Of the five men expire ou that date led h.m to change his plans.
 Preparations for the executions are going forward, and 1t is not believed that the pardon board will take any steps to postpone 1r again delay the carrying cut of the law. AS all ar raleemta-s were made last Nav there l. very little to do until tho lttsfuI Frcav dawrs save setting the death watch. and this has already b,-a done.
 Warden Sims has not yet an roarced whether he wiu abide by the o. n.oa of Attorney General NNiIc,- F.. Jones and execute Ramon Nli!alo- os. but 1t Is believed jhot, in view ot ti.a I8ot thal m appeal has been filed in the supreme court. he will not cause hin ~to be executed. Whether ol not the appeal is s.tile, it is argued, is not a question for hin to decide.
 1t is known that the work of circu- Iaune petitions in favor of d law to chln-e he death peralty to life i'm prisonment is being pushed with all possible speed and energy. and il is hoped by those who are working fot the measure that enough names can be obtained to secure .ts initiation early next week. Friends of the gov eruor believe. in case this is done, that it may have the effect of caus- iug the pardon board to recommend a reprieve until after a vote can be taken on me proposition.

WANT REVENUE
 FROM EXPORT
Report to War Department from General Devol, in Charge Of the American Red Cross Work in South cln Republic
ASSOCIATED PRESS DIsPATcHl

WASHINGTON, July 21-In re- port to the war department on ef- forts 10 relieve famine conditions in Mexico, Brigadier- General Devol gen eral manager of the American Red Cross declared that while the non comtatants were suffering from want of food, the military leaders both of the Villa and Carranza factions had reaDed the harvest from export taxes on Mexican grown food products shipped to the United States.
 Both General Hernandez and Gen eraI Villa" said the report, pro hibited the purchase of food supplies in Mexico for the relief of the Mexi- can people, stating that any such supplies must be purchased outside of Mexico. The reason given was that food in Mexico was required to feed Mexican soldiers. The real reason in my opinion is that there is military export tax, or in other words a charge on all exportatiOns amounting on the northern border to four or five hundred dollars on each car that crosses the border. This money is paid direct to the mili- tary leaders.
 For instance, at the time supplies were being purchased for Honclova three carloads of corn could have been purchased on the Mexican side for 9 cents a bushel but the actual supply cost the Red Cross 96 cents a busheL The difference in price per busheI indicates the amount of re- venue accruing to the military au- thorities for the export of the pro ducts. Relatively the same differ ence applies as regards beans.
 There are still large quantities cf food supplies assembled at various parts of Mexico. held by the military not permitted to reach people
 At the present time there may not re any actual cases of starvation in Mexico The Mexican people can live on little or nothing, and when driven to it, can subsist for sometime on cactus and other plants. There is in nearly every part of Mexico des- titution and constant misery. People outside the military sections subsist only by sufferance only when per mitted to do so by the military trad CTS. It is evident that not fifty per cent of the crop has been planted generally throughout Mexico. Con tinuaI suffering is evident and is growing worse from day to day.
