PUSHING REDTSTRIRUTION

At military headquarters it was said the redistribution of the border patrol would be pushed as rapidly as possible. Following the new assignments of the or ganizations originally ordered here only the Massachusetts militia remained in Ell Paso. It was reported that several train loads of the Pennsylvania guard will arrive here soon
 General Bell announced today that he had employed a corps of local under takers to go to Carrizal to bring here the bodies of the American soldiers kill ed in the engagement there. The under takers will go into Mexico under personal guarantee of safety from General Obre- gon, Mexican minister of war.
 The terrific heat that greeted the arriv- ing gdardsmen today kept most of them under cover. The word went out that following their arduous trip from the cool Atlantic coast region to the burning mesas of western Texas the soldiers should take things easy. The result was that there were few prostrations.
 The members of the cavalry detach- ments suffered greatly from the long trip and heat It will take many days to get the horses in trim again.

Fl Paso. Tex, July 2.-National guards men by the train load reached Fl Paso today. While many unloaded for sta tions in the vicinity, the great majority were rushed on to points westward, to complete concentration on the frontier.
 Army men say that at the present rate of transportation all points along the bor- der soon will be strengthened to a de- gree that will make impossible Mexican forays on American soil.
 The Second Massachusetts infantry, which detrained here yesterday, was or dered to the expeditionary base at Co., lumbus, to reinforce the regiment of New Mexico guardsmen and the 1500 regulars there. A and B batteries of the New Jersey field artillery was sent to Doug las, Ariz., presumably to relieve regular cavalrymen. It is reported that the cav airy will be ordered to the San Bernar- dino valley, east of Douglas, to protect its large supply of cattle, horses and forage from possible bandit forays.
 A regiment of New Jersey infantry, two troops of cavalry and a signal company also left westward for an unannounced point along the border.

Bells have been employed in associa-

early days of Egypt Cymbals and
hand bells and small erotals served for
the festival Of Isis. Aaron and other
Jewish high priests wore bells Of gold

What's the Mat
ter With Us f?

Whenever we see the business
men Of any community wake up
and 90 to boosting we take off
ur hst to them. We would hk-
to do the same to the business
men of this town.
Arvada, Colorado, is an fx-
ample just now of what can be
done when people want to do.
In some manner the impression
was spread abroad that the bust
ness interests of,Arvada did not
invite an overly close relation
with the community at larze. 1t
injured the town.
When this impression reached
the ears of the business men they
wasted no time in vane regrets.
They went to work like men and
organized community club it
is called THE Arvada Commu-
nifty Cub"
The OF j ct Of the club is in the
main to unite the interests of the
town and the surrounding trad
ing territory bv bringing all Of
the people Irtu closer tonch one
with ahU,hei.
They will organize an exchange
with p competent man In charge.
Farmers, gardeners, any person In
country or town who has any.
thing for sale can list it with The
exchange and it will be disposed
of for them without the charge
of any commission. Once a
month a big public auction will
be held at which all articles not
heretofore sold will be disposed
of without expense to the seller.
The sale days are to be widely
advertised in the local press and
the most experienced auctioneers
obtainable will be engaged. The
business men of the town are to
he urged to advertise their mer-
chandise heavily in the Arvada
papers and make special bargain
days for the auction sale days,
and in this manner establish a
close relationship between the
town and surrounding territory
that will be of lasting benefit to
both, and will cause the farmer
to forget that such a thing as a
mail order house ever existed.
Now If Arvada can do it, why
can't we? What's the matter
with us, anyway?
Any man with a particle of
gray matter under his hat knows
that if the farmer could dispose
of his crops and his small stuff
all in this town to advantage he
would do so. And if he did that
he would also do his trading here
for he is Just as intelligent and
as much human-possibly more
so-as some of the rest of u.s.
He knows when his bread is but
tered, and he invaribly takes the
buttered piece.
We should have such an organ
ization In this town, and it should
be in working order IN time for
the summers output.
Signing and growing and cuss-
ing the mail ordOr man won't do
a particle of good. Nothing but
brains and action will put him
out of business in this community
and keep our trade at home
where it;justly belongs.
The business interests of this
community have the brains. but
where's the action?
What's the matter with us,
ANYWAY?

WHERE DID Mr.. GUNTER
STAND TWO YEARS AGO

Democratic politicians are making
a hard effort to show that MIR. Gunter
is all right on the question Of prohi-
bition.
He may be a perfect gentleman
and as dry in personal habits as any
one could wish.
But where did Mr.. Gunter stand
Just two years ago when his own
party in its state platform endors-
ed local option and the licensed
saloon.
Did you hear one word of protest
from him or did you hear that he
said one good word for statewide
prohibition when it was the chief
issue?
You did not.
And now in this year of 1916, can
you tell the reason why all those
active in the saloon business and in
saloon politics two years ago are now
SO active in the support of Mr..
Gunter? Ask any man who has had
money invested in the saloon business
who he will vote for and he will
quickly tell you, Gunter.
They seem to think he is all right.
Can he be all right for both prohi-
bitionists and saloon people? Kansas
and Maine have had governors of
that sort.
