VILLA SAID TO
HAVE ESCAPED

Ell Paso, Tex, March 21.-The Car
rama forces have failed to hold their
end of the net that was closing about
Pancho Villa and the bandit chief has
escaped to his mountain haunts about
Guerrero, according to reliable infor.
nation received here. The escape of
the bandit, however, is far from be-
ing the most serious item Of news
which reached the border.
A feature of the gravest Importance
was injected into the situation by
substantial confirmation of the nu-
merous reports received for the past
week that the Mexican government
operate with the American troops,
but, in certain instances at least, We're
actually withdrawing from the field of
operations.
The troops of the de facto govern
ment. which had been stationed at
Casas Grandes, have been withdrawn
and are now in and about .luarez.
1t was also learned that at least one
detachment of Carranza troops had
refused to fight Villa and had with
drawn from the bandits approach, al
lowing him to pass into his favorite
mountain fastness in the great con
tinental divide sout! of Naniquipa.
This detcIment withdrew on receipt
of message that he was warning no
on MeXcans, but the enemies o
MeXicans.
The extraordinary rapidity will
which the American cavalry had push
ed into Mexico gave rise to high hope
that the unexpected had happened an'
the notorious bandit was cornered
! This seemed inevitable if the Carranz
soldiers did their part and if the az
count of the strength OF their tiel
forces was correct.
Villa, cut Off from the north by tn
forward sweep of the American co
umn, from the west by the Sierr
Madre barring approaches to the stat
of Sonora, was supposed to be equal
barred from east and south by powe
full Carranza forces. Those hope
!. have been completely dashed by d
velopments.
More than this, it now seems ce
tain that Villa is moving freely in {
least large section of the cOuntl
supposed to be held by the troops {
the first chief.

School Bonds

In another column we print COM
munication from the trustees OF this
school district giving their reasons for
desiring bond issue Of $2s,OOO voted
at the April 1st election. A bond issue
is always an important matter and
both sides of the case are to be con-
sidered. In this particular case every
voter should inform themselves
thoroughly before election day. The
Pioneer prints the communication OF
the trustees in the same way it would
publish an article opposing bond issue
written and signed by any reputable
resident of the district.
The matter OF bond issue by the
district at this time has not received
much attention and we doubt it fifty
per cent of the voters know that the
question is to be submitted at the COM
ING annual election. No notice, other
than the usual bill board posting, has
been given, and very small percent
age of voters make a practice of read
ing the bill boards. A few days still
remain, however, in which the interested
voter can inform himself. and the Pio-
neer suggests that it be looked into
thoroughly.
The object, as stated in the trustees
communication, is to provide school
buildings at Arlee, ST. Ignatius, Leon,
Round Butte and Roman. After re-
deeming outstanding bonds OF $4,000,
and buying the consolidated school
buildings at Leon and Round Butte,
there would be little left out of $2S, 600
for buildings at any of the other places
mentioned. Certainly not enough to
build suitable building for either St.
lgnatius or Roman. And it must be
conceded that Roman has at the present
time all the excuses for school buildings
that any one town can afford to be
burdened with. 1t is probably safe to
say that the people of Roman would
prefer to get along with what that they
now have until such time as one suit
able to the needs and demands can be
secured, and this is likely true at St
Ignatius also. Justice, however,
would seem to demand that the distric
own the buildings at Round Butte ant
= Leon. especially if this is the wish o
the public spirited men of those com
munities who provided the means re
ouired to construct the present schoo
buildings. The question submitted il
important and has two sides to it
Think it out before you vote.

HAS WEED PULLING PARTY
Pasadena Woman Adopts Nove!
Scheme to Beautify Lawn.

Pasadena, Cal, March 21.-A fad
which is likely to meet with approval.
especially by the City Beautiful club,
was launched when Mrs. p. N. Han
son entertained with "weed pulling
party
With lawn knee deep in clover,
dandelions and dozens of other kinds
of weeds Mrs. Hanson decided to get
rid of them with one fell sWoop. But
the only way to do so was to have a
party and show her guests how much
fun it was to pull weeds.
So more than dozen neighbors
were turned loose in weedy lawn and
after they had pulled up the last para
site they We're rewarded for their la
Dor with delicious hot luncheon. The
other guests plan to return the favor
by giving weed pulling parties also.

The Mexican Situation

Between the censorship necessarily
exerted along the Mexican border and
the conflicting reports from Mexico
itself, it would be unsafe to make
any predictions at this stage as to the
outcome of the proposed punitive ex-
pedition. 1t is noteworthy, however.
that some army officers feel no
little apprehension that if the expedi-
ton goes after Villa and popular senti-
ment in Mexico turns against Carranza,
he may actually unite his forces with
Villa to destroy the American expedi-
ton. 1t is already obvious, too, that
before long there will be some radically
divergent explanations Of the unpre-
paredness of the forces along the Mex
lean boundary and the occasion of the
costly delay in pursuing Villa. Apollo
gists for the administration will seek
to put the blame on the military au-
thorities, whereas officers will be dis
posed, in so far as the constant men
ace Of dismissal will permit them, to
put the blame where it belongs, on the
political heads of the war department,
and even on the commander in chief,
who is, Of course, primarily responsible.

FRENCH REPULSE
VICIOUS ATTACK

Paris, March 21.-Another powerful
German attack, this time between
Avocourt and Malancourt, west of the
Meuse, resulted in heavy losses to the
Germans, according to the official
communication issued by the French
war office.
A fresh division brought up from a
distant point was used in this opera,
ton. which was characterized by the
employment of jets of liquid flame. At
one point, east of the Malancourt
wood, the Germans made some slight
progress.

Bid For Political Pork

One of the rankest political jobs of
open and above board treachery to the
rank and file of the parties. is contem-
plated in the concerted movement of
Chairmen Selway and Everett, of the
republican and progressive state COM
mittees, respectively. A telegram was
addressed to at least three republicans
and progressives in this city, inviting
them to join in call for a Roosevelt
for President league, the intention be-
ing to hold meeting in Helena next
Tuesday and select bunch of delegates
to Chicago, pledged to the nomination
of Roosevelt in the republican national
convention. The telegram was signed
by E. 0. Selway and Tom Everett, Joe
Dixon, Wellington Rankin, Symmes,
Holloway, W. J. Mccormick of Mis-
soula, Doc Lanstrum and several other
famous war horses, We believe that
with one exception the replies from
Kalispell were favorable to the combin-
alton and the Roosevelt hat has been
started rolling into the ring. The
bosses will certainly demonstrate the
ease with which the presidential primar-
les may be defeated. This plan has no
doubt been evolved by the prospective
candidates and Office seekers out of a
Job, who see their redemption only in
such chicanery. Should Mr.. Roosevelt
be chosen at Chicago to be the stand
ard bearer of republicans, we'll and
good, but just at the present writing
he is not member of the Republican
party nor is he entitled to recognition
as such. The political tricksters who
have conspired to place him as the re-
publican candidate, might with the
same consistency have centered upor
Woodrow Wilson or Billy Bryan, with
a preference for the latter. They are
more entitled to recognition by the G
o. P. at this time than is Teeodor'
Roosevelt. .-Kalispell Times.

his nomination. Recent returns from
district conventions in the state of
Missouri and reports from a number of
other states west of the Mississippi

a strong following in that section.

REASONS FOR THE
BOND ISSUE PROPOSAL

To the citizens of school district 2S:--
In referring to the voters of the dis
trict at the school election, April 1st,
the proposal to issue bonds to the
amount of $2S,00o for providing school
buildings at Arlee, St. Ignatius, Leon,
Roman and Round Butte, the School
Board was moved by the following con-
siderations:
Our pioneer children, the children
of today, are entitled to share with the
children of the future adequate school
facilities, in order that we may have
happier and more prosperous people. At
present we have very small assessed
valuation, due to tax-exemption of In
dian allotments, homesteads, tribal
lands and government reservations,
and to the new and undeveloped char"
acter of the country, which in a few
years will have doubled in valuation
many times over, and can take up the
bonds without noticing them.
Building facilities at the above
named points are inadequate, making
it necessary to rent private buildings
in some cases, and to put up with the
handicap of scattered and poorly
adapted buildings.
The rental paid out at the present
time at these points would more than
pay the annual interest on the proposed
bond ISSUE If the issue is not author
lied the rental will be even greater be-
cause more room must be secured. The
bond issue will not increase taxes the
least bit.
The building program should be put
under way at once. By providing di-
rectly by bond issue at this time for
the points named, the slate will be
cleared for providing indirectly for ade
quate building facilities of a perma-
nent nature in the few sections not in
cluded IN the present proposal.
5. School bonds are being taken on
the market most advantageously.
Leon and Round Butte Schools,
built recently with capital secured by
the people of those communities at ten
per cent interest, should be paid oft
with four or five per cent money.
The Board believes that the people
as a whole want the very best schools
possible. Board of Trustees, School

PIONEER BLACKSMITH DEAD

St. Paul, March 21,-Minnesota's S
veteran blacksmith, August Jobst,
eighty years old, is dead. He had fol-
lowed his trade on the West Side
since 1851, when he began shoeinS
horses for the handful of settlers
gathered at the site of st. Paul. He
was found dead in his bed.
The man was a blacksmith when he
came to St. Paul at the age OF fifteen
years. He worked his way here from
Germany, making his way to st. Paul
in fiatboat.
He was one of the first to enlist in
the Civil war, and served through the
conflict at his trade.

Creamery.
Cheese Factory

The home market for cheese is a big
item. A very small per cent of the
cheese consumed in Montana now is
manufactured here in the state. For
this reason there is a splendid home
market for all the cheese that can be
made. The fact that the quality Of our
home product is superior to any that
comes in from the outside gives the
home factories a decided advantage on
competitive market and enables the
factory to pay the farmer well for his
milk. The Department Of Dairy Hus-
bandry Of the State College of Agri-
culture at Bozeman is receiving many
inquiries relative to the organization
and operation of cheese factories.
There are excellent prospects of a large
number beng started this spring. &c.

bandry, Montana Experiment Station.

CHEESE FACTORY OR
CREAMERY, WHICH?

The starting and operating Of a
cheese factory has several advantages
over creamery. 1t costs much less to
build and equip cheese factory. The
building need not be so large or costly
and the equipment is far less expensive.
A five horse power vertical boiler, a
500 gallon cheese vat and gang press
are the most expensive pieces OF equip
ment and need not cost much over 5000.
The entire equipment for a factory
that will handle the product of 800 cows
can be had for less than 5000, and the
total cost of factory should not ex-
ceed 81, 500. In building a creamery,
the equipment alone will cost at lie st
81, 500 as there is far more machinery
required for the refining Of cream, the
churning and storage of butter.
A cheese factory can be operated
successfully on the product of from 100
to 200 COWS where it will require the
cream from at least 400 cows to operate
creamery. For this reason a cheese
factory can be built and operated sue
cessfully in many communities in Mon
tana where creamery would fail from
lack of cream. The factory at Sales
vile, Montana, operated last year or
about $500 pounds of milk per day the
product of about l25 cows.
Another advantage for the cheese
factory is the higher prices paid the
farmers for butter fat during the sum
mer months when creameries are obliged
to pay the summer prices. The follow
ing is the relative price per pound Of
butter fat creamery would have tt
pay to equal the price received at ;
cheese factory based on Ia milk.
