 Mexican officials evinced the great est interest in efforts of Latin-Ameri- can diplomats in Washington in the behalf of arbitration in the Mexican crisis.
 Andreas Garcia Mexican consul to Fl Paso. who recently has spent most of his time on the Juarez side, asserted that he is still convinced that a peace able solution of the controversy will be found.
 ''The de facto troops have strict or ders to avoid any conflict with the punitive force within it's present linn it's he said. If hostilities are pro- voked they must come from the other side.n

NEWS SERVICE BEGINS
Field Men Now Collecting and
Distributing Information.

Washington, March The Unit
ed States Department of Agriculture,
through the Federal Horticultural
Board. has sent to all eastern nursery
men an urgent request not to ship
white pines, curranls and gooscber-
rias west of North Dakota, South Da-
kota, Nebraska, Kansas. Oklahoma,
and Texas. This action has been
taken in order to protect the white
pine forests Of the west from the
white pine blister rust without, if
possible, the imposition Of a burden
some plant quarantine At u conser-
yatiYe estimate, the value Of the gov
crument and private holdings in these
forests IS $240,o00,0o0 They would
be in serious danger if The white pine
blister rust, which has now gained
Ifoothold in six eastern states and is
suspected in the Ohio Valley, should
spread to the Rocky Mountains.
Gooseberries and currants are includ-
ed in the Departments request be-
cause they can carry the disease as
well as the white pine itself
At the same time, the Department
has issued warning to the states
within the range of the western white
pines. Of the danger Of allowing nur-
sery stock of these thrce kinds. from
eastern nurseries, to enter their ter
ritory. lnspectS.s OF all western
states have been asked to notify the
/ Federal Horticultural Board of any
i shipments from points east OF the
states named. The reason for this
action is that the white pine blister
rust, a very DESTRUCTIVE disease to
/ al white pines, occurs also in diff
ferent form, es a leaf disease on cur.
carnts and gooseberries. These two
plants, therefore. may carry the dis
ease to new regions and infect local
white pine Like citrus canker and
chestnut blight, the white pine bis
ter rust was brought to this country
On imported nursery stock, before
j the passage of the Federal Plant
/ Quarantined Act.
The Department, III i's letter to
+ 0urseryman, points out fhat il no ship
ments OF these three plants are made
rom infected O. suspected territory
INTO the West further acton may be
unnecessary. If, hoWeser. nursery
men ignore this reoues, it is practi-
cally certain that at an early date a
Federal Quaratine, which Will prohib-
it the interstate movement Of these
plants from the infected states. wilt
lhave to he established.

When Gov. Horace f. Graham, to be,
strikes out for retrGnchment in state
expenses he will undoubtedly give at
tention to our courts, as well as to our
numerous commissions. The increase
in the cost of our department of Jus
tice cannot be satisfactorily explained
The st. Johnsbury Caledonian and the
Barre Times are two papers which have
been handling this subject without
gloves The Times in a recent article
made this striking comparison: !" Per
haps it will be well to compare the
cost of courts in Vermont with some
other states. The Financial Statistics
of States for 1915, issued by the census
bureau, shows the costs of courts il
Vermont with an estimated population
of 36l ,S2S, for that year to be $292, SIS;
in New Hampshire with a population OF
4SS ,021, LIS; in Maine with popu
lation of 762,7S7, $50 ,067; in Minnesota
with population of 2,20O,235, $249, 142
These figures indicate a need on thu
part of the voters to dabble a littl,
with the Vermont courts.

If the latest report from the joint
councils of France and Britain is true
that they expect that the war will
last two years more aud that they will
not try to break Though on the west
ern front because the cost in life woul5i
be too great, then the question arises
why the Teutons cannot fortify as
strongly on the east front as on the
west aud thereby make the war end in
stalcmatc. But it is probable that the
entente allies would prefer prolonginq
the war a year to sacrificing half mil.
lion lives to have il end earlier.

The Providence Journal, which is a
pretty reliable newspaper, claims that
the coal shortage is largely fictitious.
1t bases this opinion on the fact that
the anthracite bureau of information at
Wi!Ecs-Barre reported that for the nine
months ending Sept. l the hard coal
output exceeded the production of the
corresponding period of year ago by
l,313,OOO tons, or three per cent. The
journal admits that freight car short
age makes deliveries slow, but says
that an ample supply of coal has been
mined, and that there is enough to &C
around if the transportation facilities

ALEXA NDER THE GREAT

Alexander The Great was. promi-

manned in the business for thirty-tWo
years and then expired as result Of
attempting to absorb too much alcohol.
His death was wholly unnecessary, and
could have been avoided if he had done
a little conquering in the direction of
his naughty and housekeeping thirst.
Alexander was the son of Philip Of
Macedon, aided to a considerable ex-
tent by the latter 5 wife, Olympias,
and at an early age began to conquer
everybody with whom he came in CON
tact. He was a lovable child, who con
tracted his teeth on the instalment ba-
sis and wore the popular hook nose of
the period with hardly an interruption.
When he was twenty years old, Alex
ander s father was rudely assassinated
in the neck, whereupon Alexander
mounted the throne and began to hunt
around for a few odd jobs of plain ana
fancy conquering.
