they came to Dallas, a city Of

country the New England boys had
ever seen, checkered with farms and
criss-crossed by interurban lines,

with magnificent paved streets, and
third largest capitol building in
America.
Still not a Liexican bandit, a cow
boy, or a long-horn steer had been
sighted. One soldier stuck his head
out the car window and asked how

ply.
The boys unloaded their guns and
the guards relaxed their vigilance.
The New England company has been
down on the border a couple Of
weeks and it isn't recorded that they
have seen an armed Mexican yet. But
they know their America is a fair
sized domain, and what seems to be
puzzling them most is why Texas
didn't annex the United States in
stead Of being annexed by it.

HUGHES OR WILSON?
ROOSEVELT'S ANSWER

against Mr.. Wilson'S com
bination of grace in elOcutiOn
with futility in action; against
his record of words unbacked by
deeds or betrayed by deeds. we
see Mr.. Hughes rugged and I'M
compromising aightfOrWard
ness Of character and action in
every Office he has held. We
put the man who thinks and
speaks directly, and whose
words have always been made
good. against the man whose
adroit and facile elOcution is
used to conceal his plans or his
want of plans. The next four
years may we'll be years of ire
mendouS national strain. Which
of the two men do you. the
American people, wish at the
helm during these four years:
the man who has been actually
tried and found wanting. or the
man whose whole career H. pub
lie office is a guarantee of his
power and good faith? But one
answer is possible: and it must
be given by the American people
through the election of Charles
Evans Hughes as President of
the, United States. Roosevelt

LABOR VOTE NOT DELIVERABLE
This Is the Outstanding Fact Which
Political Philosophers Deduce From
the Defeat in Maine of Repre-
sentative McGiIicuddy.

From among the numerous lessons
or conclusions which the political phi
losOpherS can draw from the Maine
election one lesson or conclusion
stands out more sharply defined than
any other 1t jumps at you.
The labor vote, for the sake Of
which the PoltroOn Congress tarred
and feathered itself with its own
hands only a dozen days ago, is not
deliverable by the traders who pre-
tended to sell it.
This salient fact Of the election is
illustrated cOnspicuOuSly in the Sec
ond Congress district. There are few
republic where labor is relatively
stronger than in the city of Lewiston,
the home city of Representative Nc
Gillicuddy, and he has made spe-
cialty Of it in his own political prac
tice. In the Second Maine, if any
where, would there be indications of
any return, in the shape of votes, for
the surrender of Congress to the four
BrOthcrhOods. After campaign
which might almost be called desper-
ate in its effort to save McGillicuddy
and one Democratic seat in the House
from the Republican onset. Mr. Nc
Gillicuddy was defeated by an ad-
verse plurality of nearly 400. whereas
he had been elected to the Sixty
second Congress By plurality of 1889
and to the Sixty-thrd by 1921.

NOT AN EIGHT-HOUR LAW.
Recent Hold-Up Legislation Does
Not Shorten Workday a
Minute.

As a matter of fact, it is not
an eight-hOur law at all. 1t does
not curtail the trainmenS work
day by single minute. If an
engineer has been receiving So
for working ten hours a day, this
law will raise his pay to 1928;
but it will not shorten his work
day even the tenth part of a sec
ond. This is no more like the
true eight-hour principle than
chalk is like cheese.
The reason why people call
this an eight-hOur law is be-
cause it says that in the case
Of railroad trainmen they shall
get their days pay for the first
eight hours work, and all the
rest is to be considered over
time.
Do not tell me that this strike
could not have been called off or
postponed if President Wilson
had shown that he meant BUSH
ness. I do not for one minute :
believe that those four brother
hood leaders started the blaze
going without knowing how to
put it out. One of them adj
mitted that he could put it out
so far as his own brotherhood
was concerned, but that his fol-
lowers would think that he had
gone back on them if he were
to do O.-Statement of Con

soon after Mr.. Hughes was nOmi-
mated friend said TO him: Governor,
If the American people forget the Next
can disgrace they do not deserve TO
have you for President" Quick as a
fash he replied: '"The candidate who
lodges The Mexican disgrace does not
deserve to be President" He did not
pass around his address of acceptance
for compliment or criticism in ad-
vance Of its delivery but the amount
of space he devoted to the Mexican
diSgrace-"that confused chapter or
blunders no one who had
talked with him since his nomination.
1t has been in his mind and on his
mind more than any other single prob
lem with which Mr.. Wilson has pal
tered TO talk with him is to see at once
the reality OF his indignation over the
heartleSS manner in which American
men, women and children, American
citizens, soldiers and sailors have been
abandoned by the Administration along
and across the Rio Grande, the vic
TINS Of Mexican armed forces, OUTFIT
ted with American ammunition and
American rifles, MeXicans whom Mr..
Wilson has cOddled one day as pa
triots only to chase the next as
bandits.
1t is apparently the belief of Mr..
Wilson that the people Of the United
States are not interested in Mexico.
His defenders have declared that it
was on ''old story and out Of date"
Mr.. Hughes has a better opinion OF his
fellow countrymen. He has proved
himself better judge Of their feelings.
He has made 1.-THE Mexican disgrace"
foremost issue of his campaign. He
has asSaied the record of the Admin
istratiOn in that respect in almost
every speech he has made. He has new
er failed to strike q responsive chord
in the hearts of his audience, whether
speaking in Carnegie Hall, New York.
from the platform of his train at
Grand Forks North Dakota, to vast
audience at Portland at the EXPOSE
ton at San Diego or in the prairie
states Of the Middle West. He has re-
futed the SANDER, sometimes heard in
the effete East, that the people of the
great West do not care what happens
to their fellow citizens in Mexico or
to the flag beyond the border. No
man born in the West has a firmer
faith in the fundamental patriotism
and 'dOminant AmericaniSm" of the
people of that section than Mr..
Hughes. He holds them responsible
in large measure for the encourage
ment and support he received while
Governor of New York in his war
upon political graft and political boss
ism. He thinks they had much to do
with cOnScripting him as the cham
piOn Of natiOnaliSm in the current cam
paign. He showed his confidence in
their practical idealism when he made
1.-The Mexican disgrace" an uppermost
| issue of his campaign. He has been
indicated by the response his arraign-
mCnt Of the Administration on this
| score has everywhere evoked. From
| Maine to California "the Mexican dis
grace" is Il sore subject with red
where between the oceans are the out
RACES inflicted in Mexico upon Ameri-
can honor, life and property more
| keenly resented than around the fire
sides of the great West. Mr.. Hughes
is no stranger to the West. His
straightforward talk on Mexico proves
it.

The bowels are the natural sewage

of the poisonous matter which they

BERYL.

Beryl, Utah, April 10, 1916.-The
steady stream of settlers that has
been flowing into the Escalante Valley
for the past few months, has in no
way abated.
Three more cars were unloaded at
Beryl this week, and real estate sales
men from Los Angeles, calf, and
other points are busy locating many
more who wish to make their homes
in our beautiful valley.
Among the latest arrivals are, Mr..
w. H. Smith, Mr.. F, T. Rowland and
Mr.. H. c. Davis, all of whom are living
a life of single blessedness and will
substantially increase the already
large number of bachelors in this vi
cinity. Some means must be devised
whereby these gentlemen may be pro-
vided with "better halves"-Strange
isn't it? how the fox that had it's tail
cut off in trap, tried to induce all
other foxes to have the same opera
ton performed But we must have
that school.
Mr.. Smith is genial elderly gentle
man from Pasadena, California, who
has been hypnotized by the many at
fractions offered by our valley; among
them being the broad expanse of sage
brush and the distances between
points. After hiking out to his claim
and back, a distance of five or six
miles, Mr.. Smith seemed more deeply
impressed with the latter.
The fame of the Escalante Valley
has travelled afar-Mr. T. D. Hughes
and wife with two children, also Mrs
Hughes mother and Mr.. Berchy, all OF
West Virginia, arrived at Beryl OF
the 18th inst, and are staying at the
Beryl Hotel until their home is com
pleted. Mr.. Hughes is located some
four miles west of Beryl.
All of these settlers will have Berry
as their Post office and shipping point
Beryl Is the natural outlet for the
country lying to the south. This j:
being recognized by Enterprise farm
ers who have shipped a large quantity
of hay through Beryl this week.
Messrs. Glen Mitchell and E. r
Tannar of Los Angeles, are campe'
near Beryl Station, and are securing
the valley in all directions with riff,
and shotgun. They are hunting "Blacl
Sage Claims" but as these are no
plentiful they are having considerable
sport with the jack rabbits and liz
yards. It is hoped they will be for
tunate enough to bag claim or tw
before leaving.
Mr.. C. Bunyea of Salt Lake Cit,
came In last week to establish resi-
dence on his claim about three mile
north of Beryl Mr.. Bunyea bring
his family--Mrs. Bunyea and three o
four children Of school age-Thes
will be a valuable addition to thos
already here in obtaining a muc
needed school.

is a credit to any ranch. Mr.. Films
pach saws that when he gets his meat
all smoked he intends to keen the
house going just the same, as it is
such nice cool place 70 smoke cigars.
He tried it out with a 25c, Havana
only yesterday.
S. A. Higbee of Cedar CITY came
in today from trip down to Jeff
Davis Peak, where there is consider
able excitement over the finding of
tungsten in PLEASING quantities, so Mr..
Higbee reports. He says they are
stalking out claims there where the
ground is covered by ten feet of snow.
Mr.. Higbe is now looking over his in
terests here and says that he expects
to start for Cedar City in couple of
days. He will be back later on.
Mr.. Lucas came up from his ranch
in the Escalante valley near Eight
Mile the other day. Mr.. Lucas stayed
three nights, whereas he only intend
ed to stay one. He took $50 feet of
piping back with him and he saws that
the next time he wants any pipe he
will either come in midsummer for it
or make it himself Mr.. Lucas SAYS
that he has been man Of many troub-
les while here, for not only did he have
to fight snowdrifts and make new
roads and hunt up tools to work with,
but he had difficulty in locating the
place in the deep snow where the pipe
was. He will bring a spy-glass next
time
The Stateline people are now be-
ginning to feel jubilant over the pros
poets for the camp coming to the
front in the spring and summer. The
Federal Mining company which has
taken over the Ophir seems TO mean
business. They are getting the mill
in shape and the pipe line is working
and from all indications the whistle
will again be heard here in Stateline
in a short time. With the mill re-
built in an up-to-date way, there is no
reason to be seen why it can't be made
to pay big.
Joseph Johnson came up from Good
Springs, New, where he has been
working for the past five months for
Jess Knight, former resident of this
place. Mr.. Johnson contracted a cold
while on his way up and has been
under the weather ever since, but he
is working on his homestead every
| day. Archie Bond brought him up
from Modena, but Arch didn't stay
long as he said he was promised a
good chicken supper; so after eating
a few sandwiches, composed mostly of
peanut butter, and couple of cans OF
Underwood's deviled ham and hall
cartoon of crackers, Mr.. Bond was or
his way back.
Mr.. Abbott came up from Modena
a few days ago, where he went anc
brought back team of buggy horses
to run back and forth with between
here and Modena.
