 "I am sure," said the President, that the people of the United States would wish their government to move along these linees:

PROTEST MEX. . :.
 lCAN DEGREES
CeMwv~ieati0u From S4 Oil Operators at Tamplco Sent to Washington.
 Protection Is Demanded.

Washington May 2S.-On the eve of the receipt of General Carranza's new note, which officials believe will re- new the demand for withdrawal of American troops from Mexico and with another conference between Ann erican and Mexican artillery con- :manders about to begin. a protest was received at the White House today re- porting serious difficulties between American oil operators at Tampico and the Mexican authorities.
 The protest came in a telegram to Preident Wilson by S4 American cit- izens at Tampico. They declared the Mexican military officials were pro- mitigating decrees designed to make it impossible for Americans to do busi- ness in the country, and told how one of their number had been arrested and imprisoned for three hours because he refused to pay his employees wages fixed by the authorities in excess of terms previously agreed upon with the r:cn.
 Assert Right to Protection.
 The signers of the message asserted their right to protection from the American government and announced their determination not to comply with arbitrary and confiscatory orders and decrees by the Mexicans.
 The protest was sent to the State Department. Other complaints have been received regarding recent Car ranza decrees and 1t is probable there will be representations on the subject just as soon as the controversy over the presence of American troops in Mexico is adjusted.
 In addition to again raising the ques- ton of withdrawal of American troops. it Is thought in official circles that tho new note may mention as another grievance the official embargo upon exportation of munitions to Mexico from the United States.
 Conference May Begin Today.

Change or Quit Smoking.

In these days of everything going up

smoke are about to find that they are
not an excepted class. The prices OF

tobacco are TO take big jump and
there will be nothing cheap in these
lines any more. for while at least,
Local retail dealers are advised that
some Of the leading cigars will be
raised in wholesale price 81, So and

assign as reasons for the raise:
Increased cost of raw material, In
creased prices OF supplies generally,
increase OF wages just made 10 cigar
makers and various other reasons.
Retailers who have been selling
cigars six for quarter will not be
able TO continue that practice, but will
have TO sell them absolutely at five
cents straight 10 make any profit at all.
Some OF the manufacturers have re-
sorted TO tin instead OF wooden boxes
in order to keep down the cost.
There is an inside tip that very few
factories will make the very desirable
twenty-five in box for the holiday
trade, and Christmas presents OF this
kind will be very scarce.
The situation is not at all pleasing
TO local retailers but they cannot help
themselves and the public will have
to pay. or quit smoking.
