The great majority of Mexicans would

Carranza, but as-with the moral

him. What the masses want is peace.
1t will be remembered that some of

easily won. They implored him, to
march upon the City OF Mexico, take
the capital by force, and exile Huerta
and all his kind. They argued that
Mexico had not had a surfeit Of war

tia Porte, Ind. Herald)

You can't beat this for cooperation.
It long seemed a necessity in North
Dakota to build a bridge over the Lit
tie Missouri river at Medora, and do
away with the only ford that remained
in the RED Trail" automobile route,
which crosses the west much further
north than the Lincoln Highway. So
sixteen towns in North Dakota and
Montana united their resources to
build a steel and concrete bridge at
the point named. The bridge natur.
ally would benefit all the towns along
the route in that section, but if it had
been left to a township or a county to
build it there undoubtedly would have
been no bridge at Medora for years.
Such cooperation among towns is not
only c~ommendable but sets a brilliant
example. for other sections confront
ed with similar conditions.

THE MOON BILL.


Railroads operating 80 per cent of
the entire mileage in the United
States have Joined in a protest to Con-
gress and the public against renewal
Of the efforts to effect the passage of
the Moon railway mail pay bill.
The measure was introduced in the
last Congress, balt failed to pass, al
though 1t vas made a rider on the
poston1ce appropriation bill. The post
master general has announced that it
will be reintroduced when the new
Congress opens in December, and will
be pushed for speedy passage.
Under the terms of the Moon bill;
the postmaster general would be au'
taorized to establish the "space PLAN
of payment for mail transportation, by
which a railroad company would be
paid no more for hauling atwhole. car.
load of mail than for a partial carload.
:, I'm their protest against this meas.
ure, the railroads point out that the
Moon bill would empower the post
master general, who Is interested in
the reduction Of the postal deficit, to
make the rates for carrying the mails,
with the sole limitation that he could
not exceed certain sums. He could
reduce the rates to any extent le
might desire, with no restraint but
his personal discretion.
The Moon bill woud compel every
railroad to carry the mails, at the
rates named by the postmaster gener-
al, under penalty Of 5000 per day Tor
each refusal. Il. ~ ~ "s
The railroads contend that even the
highest rates permitted by the bill
would be unjustly low, because they
would be less than the revenues from
passenger transportation, which the
interstate commerce commission has
decided to he unremunerative.
1t is also claimed by the railroads
that the Moon bill is really a delega.
ton of legislative power to the post
master general; that it wo"'d vest
him with excessive powers, and that
it would bring the railway mail ray
problem into politics.
The railroads contend That the prob.
lem ought to Ibe settled on a business
basis and kept out Of politics.
1t is shown that from end to end
the measure does not specify a single
definite rate that the railroads are to
be paid, but in each instance leaves
the determination Of the rate to the
postmaster general.
1t is shown, also, that supplement-
airy grants of power, conferred by
some of the closing paragrS phs Of :Ec
bill. would permit the postmaster gen.
eral, of his own motion. 10 establish
other systems of mail transportation
on railroads, and schemes of payment
for the same, totally different from
the detailed plan which the Moon
bill purports to enact into :aw. The
postmaster general could initiate
these plans and put them into effect
entirely independently of the will Of
Congress and make them apply to all
but the first class mail. or less than
10 per cent of the whole,
The railroads direct attention to the
fact that. Chairman Moon, of the
House of Representatives postof1ce
committee. in asking support for this
measure declared it to be the proposal
of the postofice department.

A POTASH SUPPLY IN UTAH.

The United States Geological Sur
vey reports the discovery of immense
deposits of alunite in Piute county,
Utah; and figures that from every 100
tons of this a ton of almost pure pot
ash may be secured. Heretofore we
have been dependent on the German
mines for a supply Of potash salts,
necessary for explosives, but just as
essential to the making of commercial
fertilizers. Common wood ashes d:
just as good or better, but with the
disappearance of our forests the wood
ashes is hard to get and costly.
The United States gets its nitrates
from South America very largely, and
has plenty of the best phosphate rock.
1t has lacked potash, one of the three
ingredients in the best fertilizers for
average soil, since the war broke out.
In 1913 it imported $15,0OO,COO worth
from Germany.
The Washington experts promise
enough potash for explosive making
almost at once. They do not promise,
though they apparently hope for
enough to facilitate the making of,
fertilizers. Yet 1t is probable that In
