Washington, Feb. 22.--Reports re-
ceived in Washington during the past
few days point strongly to the collapse
of the Carranzista government in Mex
leo, In the near future. These reports
not only come from responsible in
dividuals along the border. but from
American consular officials in Mexico

According to this information con-
tiitions throughout northern Mexico.
In Sonora. Chihuahua and Coahuila
as well as in more southern states, are
rapidly approaching a climax. in
which the local authorities ap-
preached by Carranxa will find them
selves helpless.
The principal difficulty in which the
de facto government 10 said to find
itself is lack Of sufficient money to
meet the pay roll of the constantly
decreasing Carranxa army. Only the
fact that Villa and all the other BAN
dit-revoiutionists are themselves near
~ penniless, accounts for the con-
tinuance OF Carranza's nominal power.

Gladly. gentlemen, will ! give you
my views" said Cardinal Gibbons.
Here Is what Cardinal Gibbons had
to say on the question:
II am strongly opposed to any
Statewide prohibition bill being passed
by the Legislature because l believe
that such a law is impossible OF en-
forcement In n city the size of Balti-
more and it's environs. Such being
the case. a law of this kind interferes
with personal liberty and rights and
creates hypocrisy in the people. The
history OF the world down to the pres
emit time demonstrates the fact that
people always have and always Will
indulge In the use of Intoxicating
liquors.
A Local Optienist.
However, am heartily in favor OF
temperance. I am also a firm believer
In local option. and whenever the ma :
1ority of the citizens of county or

the question of local option. their

Furthermore, 1t Is true that the use
of wines and liquors is often abused
and leads to lamentable results. This
have observed from long experience

dities are liable to abuse. We should
regulate the use of intoxicants as we
would regulate the use of our tongues.

FOOD FOR THOUGHT

We were talking to a well-knoWn
business man Yesterday and he told
of a good business hehad last year
but lamented he had so much Oh his
books. The farmers of his neighbor-
hood owed him too much he said
The question of credit is an import
ant one. The merchants have been
partly to blame. They know that the
farmer and his family will buy more
goods if they can have them charged,
than they would if paying cash
That's human nature. It is one
thing 10 say: Just charge that. ;"
with the comfortable assurance that
your credit is as good as the money
and another thing to pull out the
actual coin and lay it down. If We
have TO do that, We hesitate and
wonder if after an, we want or real
ly need what We are proposing to
buy. We regret this attitude on the
part of the merchants, and it is as
true in the city as in the country. If
the merchant will plainly state: This
article is so much for cash. and so
much more on credit, he will shortly
The Springdale news. [volume] (Springdale, Ark.) 1887-1990, 1916-01-28

get his business practically on cash
basis. The merchant should charge
more when he extends credit. AS a
matter of fact, he does for he has TO
make allowance for slow collections
and losses. Unfortunately, the man
who pays cash also has 10 pay his
added price. as we'll as the man who
asks credit. Bear in mind that some.
body has to pay the interest, and q
percentage TO cover the losses which
are inevitable in any credit business.
This IS added to the price, but it is
not fair that the man who pays
should have to bear a share OF this,
as he now does. The quicker farm
ers and implement dealers and mer-
chants get together on this point,
SO that the farmer can buy goods at
cash price. or. if asking credit. pay
an increase in the price large enough
to cover the cost Of credit, the bet
ter it will be for all.

HAVE YOU BEEN SKATING
Youngsters are Enjoying Sport
That is Usually Denied Them
In This Section.
Have you been skating?

Almost everybody is indulging in
the pleasure and enjoyment of the
most popular and interesting fad this
winter skating. 1t has taken the
place and popularity of other winte
sports The question that you now
hear tossed from mouth to mouth is,
going skating tonight"
One of the features that make
skating 50 interesting in this sec
ton is that it can only be indulsed in
for such a short time, and often
comes years apart; all on account Of
the mild climate that characterizes
the winters of northwest Arkansas.
1t can ed lily be imagined what oc
'curs when the thermometer begins 10

flicker of the huge bonfire. which
is replenished with fuel, gathered

pleasing sight, and one worth going
to see.
1t is suggested, however, that you
wait for the next freeze, before going
as the change in the weather, since
the above was written, has put out

NEEDS OF SPRlNGDAlE

Much has been said at various
times of the needs of Springdale.
/ suppose ] have right to a say,
too, SO following are some of the
things see needed here. We need
a good water system, reaching all
parts of the town, with plugs within
reach Of every house to be used in
case of fire.
We need better graded streets and
more open ditohes, especially on
East side to drain off the water
that stands in low places and caus-
es sickness.
We need the names and numbers
Of streets posted on the corners, 50
strangers can find them, also the
houses numbered and city. rural de.
livery of mail.
We need Sanitary officer elect
ed by the people, whose duty it
would be to look after the general
sanitary condition OF the town, fore
ing everybody TO keep their prem
ises in sanitary condition. Ar
rest and bring before the Mayor ey-
eryone who would not clean up, and
subject them TO a fine.
More could be said bat hint Is
sufficient to the wise.
