WASHINGTON YIEr Ds

The outstanding ls...are OF the
Scott-Obregon agreement, if the news
dispatches are not inaccurate, is that
the administration has yielded to the
demand, of the Mexican de facto
government IN every essential detail.
Whittier or not this course is wise
can not be Judge by the immediate
results, but will be determined by the
outcome of the train of events of
which this may be an unimportant
part. The decision to yield to the
Mexican demand should cause no
surprise. because IT is in exact har-
mony with the administration for
cign policy. President Wilson has
determined to 90 before the people
next November with a record Of hav-
ing kept the country at peace. 1t
is certain that this policy does ap-
peal TO a certain large number of
Americans.
The Americans viii have sixty days
to leave Mexico. But for that mat
ter, withdrawal really began with the
retreat of Major Tompkins' command
from Parral, the advanced columns
being gradually drawn into Namiqui-
pa. From thence the base will prob
ably be moved to Colonia Dublan and
then TO the border. General Scott
secured nothing from Oregon but
adequate time TO withdraw the Amer
lean forces and some facilities for
supplying them while the withdrawal
is in progress.

tied for the handsome mems prize,
Mr.. Williams winning the cut. 1t was
a very fine set of evening studs and
buttons. Mrs. Rogers was presented

JOHN HUMID Is OUT

John Humid, one of the first to
demonstrate the possibilities for ag-
riculture in the Mimbres Valley, has
again placed his name before the
people and asks to be nominated on
the Democratic ticket as a candidate
for county commissioner from the
second district. Having been men,
Der of the board, the public is in
position to judge of his qualificss~
tons to hold the office. II would be
Prescriptions for the Graphic to at
tempt an introduction Of Mr.. Humid
to the citizens Of Luna county, be-
cause he is almost an institution in
this community and his integrity and
honesty of purpose is very well
known.

THE IRISH REVOLT

The Irish revolt was put down
quickly and with firmness, the
leaders being executed or in prison
awaiting trial for high treason. 1t
seems that the chief secretary to
Ireland and many Of the Irish lead
ers in parliament, among them John
Redmond, underestimate the power
of the Sim Fein movement to the
extent that it spread and broke be-
fore they were prepared TO consider
measures for preventing it. The
most drastic measures were nec-
essary to stamp out the flame Of re-
belion, though it seems that the gov
eminent went at the work with a
view TO use as little harshness as
possible. The sad story Of Ireland
has added another chapter written
in blood and tears. The event has
east q gloom over the whole of Brit
ain. II is severe blow to those that
were fighting for home rule and il
puts and end to the ambitions de-
signs Of those that hoped to see
ireland free and Independent ma
ton.

HOLT BACK ON THE JOB

way of appropriating money fol
reasonable charities and projects to
benefit of the community. The board
has let out work at higher prices
than could have been secured on a
competitive basis just to serve per-
sonal or political ends. Mr.. Phillips
has always fought against this petty
way of squandering the public mon
les.
The county prisoners would not
now be kept in other counties at the
expense Of Luna county, had the
board needed Mr.. Phillips. He left
the meeting in disgust at which plans
were presented for an elaborate and
over-expesive county prison, because
he found himself standing alone in
the interests of the tax payers. The
rest Of the commission had gone ON
some sort of n joy riding trip at the
expense of large jail-building firm
TO examine county jails in other
states. Mr.. Phillips refused to go
on the trip becaus he realized that
in one form or another the firm pay
ing the bills would expect compensa-
ton in one form or another. II is
50 easy to handle other persons
money without due care for economy.
because a board that has taxing
powers find it so easy to raise the
rate to cover injudicious expendi-
lures. The Democratic voters of
Luna county have a fine opportunity
to fire Il big gun in their own defen-
sc by going into the primaries and
voting for j. w. Phillips.

THE CHAUTAUQUA SPIRIT

! spite of the great discouragement
which the chautauqua boosters met,
the opening night found more than
the required number of tickets sold.
This is the first year that Demine
has enjoyed the assembly, but it is
safe to predict, in view Of the sue
cess this year, that it is destined to
become Luna county institution.
With some of the best numbers yet
to come, it can now be said that the
talent is all that it was represented
TO be.
Some have argued that the chau-
tauqua takes money out of the city
and should not, therefore, be encour-
aged. Ii is true that it costs money.
but the educational features are
worth more than is paid for them.
The children of Deming will derive
II great benefit from the opportunity
afforded. Another advantage is the
bringing into the city of many per-
sons in this trade territory that be-
come acquainted and form business
and social relations that are pleasatn
and profitable. The display of cul-
turc is bound to have a refining in
fluence ON the community. In this
season of wild rumors and vague
alarms, it is good to feel the soothing
influence exerted by the artists that
aim to instruct and amuse.

It is planned to have this eXemplification as impressive and perfect in every detail as is possible, So the honor to Fl Zaribah and it's 1 chosen member is no small one in Shrine circles.
 In addition to Mir. Hanny. Fl Zari- bah will have two other official rep resentatives at Buffalo Shirley Christy and J. J. Sweeney. MT Christy also serves on the per diem and mileage committee. The party will leave on the Fourth for quite a bit of work awaits them in Buffalo before the real work of the great convention starts on July II. It is expected that over 100000 members of the ancient Arabic order, Nobles of the Mystic Shrine of North Amer ica, to give the proper and entire title, will attend the imperial council
 The eXemplification is to take place in .he Majestic theater, and will be Witnessed only by the representatives of the various temples and a few other favored nobles. It will be in
 charge of Noble Charles D. Symms,
 who has been director of the floor work for Fl Riad Temple in Sioux

 Fl Zaribah Temple is one or the very best known in the United States, for although not one of the largest in numbers, it's members and officials are so chock-full of ambi- tion pep, and enthusiasm that they

Last spring when the imperial potentate and his entourage or cortege or whatever the Mystic Shriners call 'em were in Phoenix to attend the initiation pro- ceedings of Fl Zaribah temple, whose jurisdiction, be it known, is Arizona, they were so impressed with some of the work done here, that they never rested until it was arranged to have something just as good" at Buffalo when the imperial colncil met.

More than one type of motor truck is In use among the ifty-four machines of this class doing transport duty. These trucks are under test in country with out roads. where hill and mountain climbing on rocky trails is necessary if the army is to. subsist. The big trucks not only have dcne all expected of them, but in several respects they have outdone the famous lighter makes of automobiles in pacemaking under diff ferent conditions.
 Work in Aviation Service.
 The aviation service is working un- der conditions calculated to bring out sharply every necessity which may be considered in increasing the aeroplane establishment. The army in the field already has met the problem of living in country which Is practically with out salt. Even the scapty food sup plies which were anticipated in the devastated Chihuahua districts have not all materialized. Most of the avail able pork, for example, has been found infected with trichinae. These and other incidents have complicated an all ready difficult transportation situation, throwing the army upon its own re sources to work out quick substitutes for the ordinary means of subsistence. ! Practically, however, 1t is understood that the field. forces by hard work, en- durance of the cRyalTymen and horses and the remarkable marching powers displayed by the infantrymen have made up for a considerable part of this handicap. Adaptabiity of the troops to emergencies displayed under the tests of this campaign has furnished many practical object lessons as to the length to which American armies can be driven on forced marches without loss Of organization or danger to the men. These troops made record march es during thelr first day out; but, ac- cording to the reports reaching here and the evident physical hardness of the men in the base camps, the men are in condition not only to repeat but to exceed their past performances.
 Humor In Camp Life.
 In spite of campaign hardships the camp life in Mexico Is beginning to produce it's round of humorous soldier stories. A Chinese laundryman, resi- dent of Mexico, establishing his busi-

ness near II,==:ssa camp, proceeded to attempt to build his shack over and around the army telegraph wire. He intended to use the wire to hang clothes on. An officer stopped him be- fore the shack was up.
 Duck shooters and other pothunters along the 25O miles of line communion ton have disturbed the pack train teamsters, who have tried to spread ru- mors that the sportsmen were at the least hostile armies. However, stan officers after investigation found that neither the supplies of game nor the teamsters had been menaced. One of the infantry regiments went on a rab- bit drive near camp, obtaining nearly a rabbit per man.
 During the rest hours in camp among the soldiers hardly word of discus sion about the significance of this Mex ican expedition is heard. The officers, however, discussed the Mexican situa- ton guardedly from many angles, but all of those in camp were outspoken about one desire-namely, to hurry southward.
 The men have stopped using the creek water and obtain water from shallow wells dug since the base was established. The change was not made on account of fears of the purity of the creek water, but for convenience. The clear. creek with the rocks at the bottom showing beneath considerable depth of water has been constant temptation to Che men of all commands for swimming. Now each organization has a swimming hole, where all day long yells induced by Icy plunges are heard and where there is constant line of men attending to their daily clothes wash.
