CLEVELAND, O., Sept 16.-The threat of general railroad strike car ried no such dread to Cleveland as to many large cities. While Cleveland is intersected by six railroad systems, it is also the local point for system of brick highways that is regarded by experts as the most complete and substantial in America When fear of a strike was at it's highest, plans were practically formulated for making Cleveland independent of rail trans Dortation so far as the necessities of life are concerned.
 A preliminary survey showed that the city had supplies to last, various ly, from one to twenty days, the shortest period being for milk and the longest for meat Cleveland pro- duces 75 per cent of it's flour and the raw material, wheat, comes largely by boat
 Mayor Harry L. Davis took the lead in calling for volunteer mobilization of motor trucks, to take effect in case rail transportation stopped. It was found, according to the Cleveland Au- tomobile Club, that paved roads reached practically every dairying To- cality which serves the city. The la tent meat supply, within trucking ra- dius, was estimated as sufficient to last for two months.
 In the matter of fresh vegetables and fruits there was never moments anxiety. Paved highways have so stim- ulated market gardening in the vicin- ity of Cleveland that the city is actual ly an exporting point for vegetables, rather than an importing point Most of these gardeners have greenhouses and reach the Cleveland market at least once daily the year around.

be taxed up against the farmers of Imperial Valley, for they have no right under the law to turn the waters of the Colorano on the farms of their neighbors, even though those neigh bors have been good natured enough to stand this outrage in the past. Pa tience has ceased to- be cardinal virtue. We must now look to the law for protection, and if the Imperial district directors continue to inflict damage on Yuma farmers, the Imperial people must expect to pay the damage. That dam must come out, lock, body, and barrel If it doesn't we will want to know the reason why. It must not remain single day longer than the bond permits. Water or no water for Imperial Valley, it must come out. That much is certain. It is a great hardship to Yuma Valley farmers if the dam were permitted to remain the menace that it is. Take it out, and take it out on schedule time. Less than that would be a crime against every man who owns an acre of ground in Yuma Valley. Take it out.

STRENGTHENING OUT
 MEXICO.

Several weeks ago a promi- nent congressman, speaking at an important gathering in Washington, disclosed what
 he said was an attempt upon the part of the administration to have General Funston rec ommend withdrawal of the American troops from Mex ico. The latest development is that General Funston has made such a recommendation. The actual withdrawal has been going on for some time. The national guard, which is protecting the border, is made up of some of the best mate rial there is in the country, but it is apparent that there is rather a disjointed organi- zation, and that it's members are not particularly adapted nor we'll equipped for the task of invading a foreign country. When these troops went to the Mexican border nearly everyone supposed that there would be an invasion, or an attempt at intervention. No one seriously believed that General PerShing's column was being strengthened for the simple purpose of hunting out a lot of ragmuffins who had shot up an American town. However there appears to have been a recurrence to methods of inquiry and nego- tiation, that may have grown out of the alarms of war.
 There is a good deal of quiet comfort about Washing ton in the growing belief that the Carranza administration may, after all, be able to han dle the Mexican situation. No less a person than Secretary Lane, whom many regard as the strongest man in Presi- dent Wilson's cabinet, has been placed upon a commits sion to adjust the differences between Mexico and the the United States.

THE STRENUOUS MIR WILL
 SON.

Nobody can accuse Presi- dent Wilson of having dis played any lack of energy in the handling of negotiations intended to prevent the rail- road strike. It is the ordinary custom of the president of the United States not to alter his office hours to any great eX- ent because of pressing pub lie business. Guardians of the health of the president insist that he must not be over crowded. The precedentS all require that people who wish to see the president shall ac- commodate themselves to his convenience and time. Even in the handling of acute con- ditionS with Germany and Mexico, MT. Wilson adhered rather closely to his routine office hours. He insisted, in his dealings with the railroad officials and operators, that he was acting as the friend ot all interested parties, and his anxiety to achieve success was shown by the fact that his weekend vacations were can celed, and the audiences and conferences were held at the White House, evenings, Sun days, and at all times when it seemed probable any good might be accomplished. The president made several trips to the capitol, and even visit ed senators in their offices. This latter procedure has, perhaps, never been adopted by any other president.
 The personal point of view of the administration evl- dently assumed that the pub lie rights were paramount to- those of the diSpudant rall- road managers and operators. MT. Wilson, as the chosen re- presentative of the American nation, doubtless succeeded in impreSSing upon the par ties to the controversy the right of the government to ln- tervene. The heroics were equal to those employed by y former President Roosevelt in the settlement of the anth- racite strike, or in his inter ference in the RuSSianu-J ap-
