England has shown during the

campaign for tariff policy in place
of one for free trade which has now
become traditional. Even in Man.
chester and other cities Of the north

Turkey is experiencing consider
able trouble as a result of her part
in the war. Her military defeats
have been quite severe and now the
blockade Of the allies is making
prices high and food supplies scarce.
She has been forced TO accept help
from outside nations.
Holland is finding her position far
from pleasant. Her finance minister
recently resigned, she has suffered
from the German policy of subma-
rines and the allies policy Of block
ade as we'll There are some indica-
tions that she is locking forward to
a more aggressive attitude in the
future.
The United States has received
word from Germany that she has
not, as yet, any official knowledge
in regard to the torpedoing of the
Sussex, but that she is investigating
the affair. The United States, in the
meantime. is making some inquiries
of her own. Should they not agree
the situation would be difficult one.
RumOrs still persist Of an under
standing between Germany and ia
pan. II is thot that the latter nation
would not be pleased with too great
a victory on the part Of England
although she is bound TO her by a
treaty Of alliance. Nor could she
be expected 10 look on with much
favor should her recent enemy,
Russia, be victorious.
The success OF the American ex-
pedition into Mexico is not yet as
sured. A battle of five hours du-
ration took place when the regulars
under Captain Dodd surprised Villa
and his followers. A large number
Of the Mexicans were killed and the
rest scattered in small bands in all
directions. Villa was evidently
wounded in the leg as a result Of
his savage attack on a settlement
of Carranza's followers. IL was
thought that Villa would be taken
in short time but reports indicate
that he has escaped.
Reports disclose strong interest
on the part of the German news
papers in the coming political con-
ventions in the United States. The
German American influence is strong
and might count for considerable in
a close contest. This vote has gen.
orally gone on the Republican side
in an election and il would certainly
be anti-Wilson at the present time.

Towner. April II. 1915.
Editor Holly Chieft.in:-
A number of us are still argu-
ing just what constitutes a legal
fence. We are all homesteaders
in this vicinity. with number
of critters grazing about. Now
please tell us what remedy we
have to keep other peaple's cat
tie from breaking into our fields?
ANSWER.
Under the present law your
only remedy is to maintain a
strong legal fence that will ward
off the boldest of the herds.
When this is done the person in
jured can claim damages upon
sufficient proof as to the strength
of his fence and the value of the
crops lost. Under the law every
homesteader is required to fence
his property substantially as a
means of self-protection against
the open running of stock. but a
brand new law is to be initiated
at the fall election that will shift
this burden.
Some claim that a legal fence
is so costly that few farmers can
afford to maintain one, while
many cattle owners insist that
the Colorado legal fence is moth
ing more than a joke. However
printing from the law. we print
it verbatim:
IA fence OF three barbed wires, with
posts not more than sixty feet apart, with
stays between not more than thirty.three
feet apart, or with three wires, with posts
not more than thirty.three feet apart, with
one stay midway between, or two barbed
wires with pole At top, not less than two
inches in diameter, wired At each end to
posts, posts not to be over #. apart; or
four plain wires, with posts not less than
Eve inches in diameter and not over Fifty
feet apart. with stays between not over 10
feet apart; Provided, that any division or
road fence, made Of wires shall be deemed
Unlawful that contains . less number Of
wires, posts and stays than above describ.
cd. All other fences made of boards,
rails, poles, wires, stone, hedge plants or
