VOLUNTEERS WANTED

Estancia got little thrill
Wednesday when word came by
phone from Capt. Stafford of
Santa Fe, asking how many
volunteers for border service
could be enrolled from this coun-
ty. Of course nobody could tell
how many might want to go.
However, it was arranged that a
recruiting officer would come,
and meanwhile the following
notices were issued:
Wanted, Volunteers. Men
are wanted for border service.
Recruiting officer will be in Es-
tancia in a few days. and mean
while those willing to volunteer
are asked to phone or call at the
sheriff's Office

Presumably the men are want
ed to fill up the ranks of the New
Mexico National Guard, which
has been ordered into service by
the government. The National
Guard of Texas and Arizona also
has been ordered out. The gov
ernor of Texas has also ordered
out the Texas Rangers.
Of course nothing is known
positively at this time of the
plans of the government, but the
presumption is that these troops
will be used for border patrol,
thus releasing the regulars for
service wherever needed.

ASyNBOI OF HEALTH.

The Pythagorians of Ancient Greece
ate simple food, prscticed temperance
and purity. AS badge they used the
five pointed star which they regarded
as symbol of health. A red five
pointed star appears on each package
of Chamberlain's Tablets, and still full
fills its ancient mission as a symbol of
health. If you are troubled with indi-

get a package of these tablets from

at the quick relief which they afford.

rive antelope out OF Dunc
of six were slain by game butch
! ers and game law violators in tn
Estancia valley last week, ac
, cording to advices received b,
the Santa Fe Game Protectiv,
Association from Mr.. Shearon, O.
Moriarty. One buck escaped
according to Mr.. Shearon. The
matter has been reported by the
association to the state game
warden. In view of the fact
that the beautiful antelope are
almost extinct in New Mexico,
the crime is a shocking one and
the people of this section, sports
men and non-sportsmen alike
feel that prompt and effective
action should be taken to bring
the guilty parties to justice. =

What do you think of a toll
! bridge in the Estancia Valley ?
Sounds strange, doesn't it? But
it is concrete fact. For the
past ten days or more Mestenio
draw has been impossible for
automobiles except over a bridge
which Saturnino Lueras had
built in his pasture. The bridge
is not a very substantial affair,
and finally it occurred to Mr..
Lueras to make the consumer
pay the tariff. To be more ex-
plicit, he conceived the idea of
making the travellers pay for ma
terial to build a better bridge.
So he put up a barrier and charg-
es the autoists a fee to cross.
Many autoists have stuck in at
tempting to ford the draw, and
paid a much bigger fee to get
somebody to pull them out with
horses. Doctors Amble and Ma
son, who are among the heavy
sufferers, collected $40 by public
contribution to buy material to
build bridge on the highway, |
but the road authorities deem it |
impracticable to build a bridge
now. So we are like the Arkan-
sawyer with regard to his roof.
When the draw is running we
can't build a bridge, and when
it isn't we don't need it. So the
natter remains in statu quo"
for the present, and Mr.. Lueras
continues to collect either bridge
soll or a fee for pulling the luck
ess autoist out of the mud.
rorreon draw is giving trouble,
100. 1t is carrying a pretty large
1olume of water down to the
'ailroad track, and while the
lutoists are having trouble cross
ng it, the railroad people are be-
ginning to be apprehensive cf a
'oft track. What a great pity it
s that the great volume of water
.arried down by these two
lraws could not be impounded
md used for irrigation.

Mr.. Secretary have the honor TO
acknowledge receipt of your excellen-
cy's note transmitted under date Of
July IL by Eliseo Arredondo, your gov
ernment's confidential agent in Wash
ington, informing me that your excel
lency has received instructions from
the citizen first chief of the Constitu-
~tionalist army, charged with the exec
utive power of the union to propose
that each Of our governments name
three commissioners, who shall hold
conference at some place to be mutual
ly agreed upon and decide forthwith the
question relating to the evacuation Of
the American forces now in Mexico
and to draw up and conclude a proto-
col or agreement regarding the recir-
roeal crossing of the frontier by the
forces of both countries, also to deter
mine the origin of the incursions to
date in order to fix their responsible
ity therefor and definitely to settle the
difficulties now pending or those which
may arise between the two countries
on account of the same or a similar
reason; all of which shall be subject
to the approval of both governments.

In reply l have the honor to State

before the President and have receiv-
ed his instructions to inform your ex-
cellency that the government of the

proposal of the Mexican government

gests, however, that the powers of the
proposed commission should be en-
larged, SO that If, happily, a solution
satisfactory to both governments Of
the question set forth in your excel
lency's communication may be reach

such other matters, the friendly ar
rangement of which would tend to iu-
prove the relations of the two coun-
tries; it being understood that such
recommendations as the commission
may make shall not be binding upon
the respective governments until for
mally accepted by them.
To Proceed Immediately.
Should this proposal be accepted by
your excelIency's government, / have
the honor to state that this govern
ment will proceed Immediately to ap-
point its commissioners and fix after
consultation with your excellency's
government, the time and place and
other details of the proposed confer
