Urge Joint Action to Stop Murders.

Establishment of a neutral zone
in northern Mexico, to be jointly
policed by the forces of Mexico
and the United States unless the
disorders are speedily controlled, is
proposed in a resolution introduced by
Senator Gore, Democrat, of Oklahoma.
The resolution, which was referred
to the foreign relations committee.
would authorize the president to enter
into an agreement with General Car.
rama to use troops to restore order,
and make life ecure in that portion
of Mexico adjacent to the United
States. There was no discussion on
the proposal.
Evidence obtained at FL Paso by
state department agents indicates that
CarranZa authorities at Chihuahua as.
sured C. R. Watson, head of the party
Of American mining men, of whom
sixteen were killed near Santa Ysabel,
that no escort was necessary.
In that opinion many of the Ameri.
cans concurred, although they had sug.
gested to the authorities the advisa.
bility of sending troops with the par
ty.
The advices further said the Car.
rama governor of Chihuahua gave
Watson a personal passport, and that
the Carranza immigration authorities
in Juarez gave a general passport for
the whole party. These developments
are taken to point to responsibility of
the Carranza government for not ade.
q~uately protecting the Americans.
State department officials indicated,
however, that they did not consider
the advices as being finally sufficient
to determine the responsibility of the
Carranza government, and further in.
vestigation will be made.

Albert Simmons, of Los Angeles,

were murdered at Pedricini, Mexico,

the two Americans were killed with
out a chance to get out of the country
and that the murders were committed
simply because the men were Ameri.

Pedricini, the place where the Amer

A KIND VOICE.

There is no power of love SO hard
to keep as kind voice. A kind hand
is deaf and dumb. 1t may be rough
in flesh and blood, yet do the work
of soft heart, and do it with a
soft touch, But there is no one thing
1t so much needs as sweet voice
to tell what 1t means and feels; and
it is hard to get it and keep IL in
the right tone. One must start in
youth, and be on the watch night
and day, at work and while at play.
to get and keep a voice that shall
speak at all times the thought of
kind heart. But this is the time
when sharp voice is most apt to
he got. You often hear boys and
girls say words at play with a quick
sharp tone as if it were the snap of
a whip.
II any Of them get vexed you will
hear voice that sounds as II it
were made up of snarl, whine and
a bark. Such voice often speaks
worse than the heart feels. It shows
more ill-will in tone than in words.
II is often in mirth that one gets a
voice or a tone that is sharp, and
stirs up ill-will and grief, and falls
like drop of gall on the sweet joys
Mt home. Such as these get sharp
home voice for use, and keep their
best voice for those they meet else

UNIVERSITY PRESIDENT
BOOSTS THE SAN JUAN

President Boyd of the University of
New Mexico, who recently paid a
visit to San Juan county, New Mex
leo, and on his return stopped over n
day or two in Durango, upon his re-
turn to Albuquerque, said, according
to an article published in the Az
tee Independent, 81 have been con-
WINGED by by latest visit to the San
Juan country that a railroad link
ing together the three great irrigat-
ed regions of New Mexico, the San
Juan, the Rio Grande and the Pecos
valleys, and affording them a market
at Gulf of Mexico ports, is an eco
monte necessity. and that such a rail-
rood will be built as soon as capital
again becomes available for railroad
construction in the United States"
He further said: while | knew
that transportation was the great
problem of the San Juan and its trib-
utary valleys it had never been
brought home to me so forcibly as
on this trip. The Durango Exchange,
an enterprising association of Du-
range business men and interests all
up and down the San Juan basin,
is working hard behind Colorado
congressman in behalf of federal
Legislation for a railroad from Du-
range to Gallup, thus giving rail con
ncction to the Pacific coast"
Further, he said: "The Texas
markets and Gulf ports want not only
all the coal they can get, but every
pound of apples and other fruits,
and of vegetables and alfalfa as we'll
The linking of the San Juan, the Cen
trail Rio Grande and the Pecos val
leys onto a Gulf port railroad would
make one of the most profitable lines
in the world, and in my opinion its
construction is as certain as is the
vast development of the San Juan re
gioD when the line is built.
With reference to the fertility of
the San Juan section and San Juan
