ADEQUATEFORCE |. 0N THE BORDER
 NEAR DOUGLAS
(Special to The Republican,

DOUGLAS March 26-The total number of United States troops sta toned at this point on the border is three regiments of infantry, the Eleventh, Eighteenth and Twenty second, which comprise 2300 officers and men; 800 cavalry, a part of the First and Seventh, 150 in the artillery and 100 in the signal corps making a total of 3350.
 This force is adequate at this time to protect Douglas and other border towns close by as everything seems very quiet on both sides of the line and the excitement caused by the re- port that General Gales was about to Lombard Douglas has dWindled down to nothing. But the inhabitants here are expecting something to hap pen every day and their nerves are keyed up to a high tension. There is no reason for it at the present time as the local and military officials are keeping a strict vigilance on all agi- tators and would be revolutionary leaders. Summing up the situations as a whole, conditions seem more pa cific than at any time since the war began.
 The transportation of all arms and ammunition across the border line has been stopped by the United States of ficials here in Douglas.
 General Callas commanding the CarranZa forces at Cabullonda has changed his base and moved in closer to the border

ARE STILL SEEKING
 FUR LONE BANDIT
Republican A. p. Leased Wlre1

SALT LAKE CITY, March 26-Of- of the Oregon Short Line railroads private detective force were busy all day trying to overtake the bandit who held up the railroad company's train, enroute to Butte, Montana, near Roy, Utah. about thirty miles north of Salt Lake, early today, and footed the mail car and registered mail. Bloodhounds from the state prison were taken to the point where the man held up the train, and picked up what is believed to be his trail. The footprints led in the direction of Salt Lake and are in the open fields.
 The circumstances indicate that the man worked entirely alone. It is
 thought he boarded the train as a
 passenger when it left Salt Lake at
 11:45 o'clock last night, although he
 was not observed until he climbed over
 the tender and entered the cab of the locomotive just after the train had left the station at Roy.
 The Oregon Short Line railroad has offered $1, 1000 reward for the capture of the bandit.
 Late tonight the sheriff's posse from Salt Lake, Weber and Davis counties returned to their respective headquar- ters, tired after an all day hunt They said they had followed the bandits trail
 until it was lost on a road a few miles southeast of the holdup scene. POstoffice inspectors have not com pleted their checking up on the thirty one registered packages taken by the bandit, but believe he must have se- cured several thousand dollars.

DOUGLAS, March 26.-Declaring that he wished to assure the people of the United States and those of Douglas in particular that the de fac to government of SonoraA was acting in good faith, General P Elias Gales, military governor of the state invited Sheriff Harry C. Wheeler of Cochise county, AriZ., to visit Cabullona and other points in northeastern Sonora, where CarranZa troops are located.
 If the sheriff or a committee of citlzens will inspect our camps for themselves, they will see that we are making no plans that could be classed as hostile.' the governor stated today
 Sheriff Wheeler visited General Gales at the latters headquarters in Agua Prieta. the Mexican town op- posite here, to discuss reports of alarming nature that had been circu- lated by persons in Douglas. At the request of General Gales. Sheriff Wheeler made tour throughout the town, inspecting the old defensive works erected last fall, when Villa in vaded the state, and the quarters of the Mexican soldiers.
 Upon his return to Douglas the sheriff stated that he was convinced that General Gales was doing every thing in his power to allay appre- tension, and that not one foot of trench nor any wire entanglements had been prepared by the Mexican soldiers.
 It was after this visit by Sheriff Wheeler that General Gales offered to accompany the county officials or a committee of citizens to the Mexican camp at Cabullona and other places The sheriff stated, however. that he was convinced by his trip to Agua PrIeta of like conditions elsewhere
 Employees of the Nacozari railroad brought a report from Cabullona to- day that several hundred CarranZa

A British air raid on SchleSWlS -HOl- stein and a resultant battle between British Warships and German armed trawlers in which three aeroplanes were brought down, two German armed trawlers were sunk and Brit ish torpedo boat probably was lost in 6 collision, gives diversity to the lat est war operations.
 The violent bombardment north
 west of Verdun in the region of Nal
 ancourt continues, while to the nortl
 of the fortress and in the WOevre re- zion in the east, intermittent cannon ading is still in progress. No infantry
 attacks have been launched by the
 Germans except to southeast of Fort
 Douaumont, where Berlin reports a
 hand to- hand encounter with the ad
 vantage on the side of the Germans. The French in the Argonne forest
 are keeping up their bombardment of German positions. Considerable ar tillcry activity on the part of the French also has been shown in the Vosges. The explosion of a French mine in this region inflicted heavy losses on the French. according to Der lin. The German position was not i'm paired by the explosion.
 On the Russian front the Germans attempted an offensive in the region of Jacobstadt, but were repulsed while the Russians captured a German trench in the region of Dvinsk. Heavy fighting is. still going on in the lake region southeast of DVinSk. Here Berlin says. the Russian attacks broke down.
 Storms in the Austro- Italian lines have impeded operations but lombard ments are continuing on the IsonZo front.
 In the coastal region of the Russo Turkish war theater the Russians are | making good progress against the Turks and also further south in the Lake Van region have thrown their | lines still further forward. Three more British steamers have been sunk. presumably by German sub ! marines. They are the Minneapolis, l once plying between American ports l ard London; the St. CeceIia. on a voy age from Portland, Maine. and the | F'enay Bridge bound from Philadel- phia for Hull. The crews of the St.
 Cecelia and Fenay Bridge were res 1 cued The fate of the crew of the | Minneapolis is not known. 1 The exact number of American 1 casualties on board the cross channel l steamer Sussex, which was blown up in the channel Friday afternoon, has | not yet been determined. The French l admiralty, passing it's statement on af- l fidavits of American passengers saved says the Sussex was torpedoed with
 out warning.

HE PUBLIC FORUM
A QUESTION FOR COCHRAN
Thanks for your splendid, article on
the subway question. Your former
articles on that subject sounded like
the paid ad of a street car corpora
ton, but, since The Day Book is adj
less, I take it for granted that you
receive no faYors from any public
service corporation.
I want to ask you a question.
Would the friendly attitude of the
Chicago street car lines toward union
labor cause you to remain silent or
passive while they put over one OF
the greatest rObberies ever commit
ted on a municipal government?
Poor street car service is the tool
they are using to commit the rob-
berry with. The equipment of the
surface lines with some additional
men could be operated to give two
seats to every passenger and reduce
the time of transit considerably.
Don't misunderstood me - do
not wish to see you go after the ele-
waited roads. 1 am not Socialist
enough for that, as they are mostly
on private property and the capital
invested must be enormous. How
ever, would like to see them get
some of that new freedom that Pres.
Wilson promised to the American
manufacturer. Fortunately, as us
RpOrhIicanS look at If the new free
dom did not have a chance to show
it's effects on American industry.
Mr.. Cochran, hope you continue
to expose those pirates who are rob-
bling us and preparing to rob the gen
erations yet unborn and that you can
see your way clear to publish this
letter. Yours for free press and
good transpOrtation.-M. o. r.

N. D. Cochran.
MASKED ROBBERYI-We are
warranted in believing that if the
managers of Chicago's public bust
ness were put in charge of any large
private business they would make
short work in Wrecking it. Henry
Ford might survive under their man
agement for a year or two, but they
would put John D. Rockefeller into
the bankrupt court inside of four
years.
Public business requires the same
kind of common sense that governs
successful private business. Private
business serves and cherishes it's
patrons. Public business as man
aged by the weak-minded political
cherubs Of Chicago robs the great
body of its patrons, the working and
producing forces of the community.
It robs them by profigate expendi-
ture of the OnerOus taxes paid by
them, and then to make up the short
age of funds rObs them some more
by leVying new and dOUble-barreled
taxes. They tax labor and the pro-
ducing forces of the community to
the limit of bare existence and then
seek to mask the robbery by carry
ing a part of the burden of plumber
over to posterity in the shape of pub
lie debts.
These managers may be ignorant,
but it is strange that their ignorance
should always take the form of tax
ing the poor for the benefit Of the
rich.
Their mismanagement is now TAX
ing the malicious form of taxing
every occupation by which an indi-
YiduaI can earn an honest living in
