MIR. Hughes Has Exploded the kept

Mr.. Hughes attack upon the kept
us-0ut-of-war argument has aroused
a storm of enthusiasm.
Kept us out of war;" he demands.
why, there we're nineteen men
good American soldiers. shot down at
Vera Cruz, and many Mexicans were
killed by our men. That was war.
Moreover, it was very ignoble war.
l have heard three explanations of
the Vera Cruz move.
First, it was explained that it was
made in order to compel somebody
to salute the flag-somebody who had
insulted us. But the flag was not sa-
luted and has not been to this day.
Then it was said that the salute was
not what we sought, but to prevent
the landing of a boatload of ammu-
milton intended for Heurta. The am
munition landed, however, and it has
been shown that it reached Huerta in
! due season without interference on
| our part.
when that reason was shown to
| be untenable third one-and posi-
jly the real one-finally was advanced
1t was said that our seizure of Vera
Cruz was a move to compel the retire
ment of Huerta. 1t seems possible
that this is true, although We had
promised the Mexicans that we would
not interfere in their affairs and told
them more than once that We wanted
them to handle their own affairs.
THAT is why the Mexicans could
not understand us and that is why
they show little faith in our prom
ises."

Ellis Minor, son Of Mr.. and Mrs,

creek last Spring from Dr. A, P. Cul-
bertson has greatly increased the
hay yield on that place Last year
the ranch produced only so tons of
hay and this year Mr.. Minor estimates
his alfalfa crop at 200 tons. By en-
larging his bitches and increasing his
hay acreage, Mr. Minor has increased
the yield Under the work he has
outlined, including the new ditch
which will be constructed, he estimat-
es the ranch's hay production at the
end of three years, in the neighbor-
hood of 500 tons. There are 240
acres of land on the creek bottom and
several hundred acres of grazing land
on the hills. Mr.. Minor expects to
run a band of sheep this Fall.

together with nearly half a million

100000 acres of sugar land were
ploughed up because of Democratic

which failed to materialize until the
