ELkO HAS THE BEST
LADY TELEGRAPHER
IN UNITED STATES

Telegraphers of wide experience
throughout the country long since
agreed that Mrs. c. l.. Fike, now man.
ager OF the Postal Telegraph-C Gable
Company at Eiko, Is one Of the most
skillful lady operators In America.
This opinion was held generally when
Mrs. Fike was wire chief of a large Of
flee several years ago. and was con.
firmed at Elko when she performed
the feat Of handling The day J1essage
and report work OF the general offices
Of the Western Pacific railroad. This
was conceded to be one of the heaviest
tasks In the railroad telegraph world,
which few of the best male operators
cared to tackle. The traffic on the
wires under her care was equal to
about $50 ordinary commercial tele-
grams, which means speed, accuracy
and grim endurance.
Having served for IL years in
various telegraph positions, Mrs. Fike
considered herself entitled to com.
parative rest, and she accepted the
post of manager Of tho Blko Postal Of
flee. She az rapidly JuIdltg up the
patronage - the comp;ny and striving
to uphold the claim. fastest service

Mrs. Fike demonstrated today for
the enlightenment Of reporter that
by slight pre-arrangement, (calllng a
traffic clerk to facilitate relaying3 she
could put telegram through from
E1ko to New York within minute,
provided the relty office wires at San
Francisco were o. X.
The long distance telephone service
between F1ko abd Salt Lake and San
Francisco is being largely used by the
public. This service soon will be ex.
tended by the Postal to Denver.

FOR ADMISSION TO.
AMERICAN DOMAIN
Peon Hordes Realizing That Uncle
Sam is Best Friend Desperately
Anxious to -Find safe Haven>Aero.s
Border.

Ell PASO, June 23.-officials Of the
federal and the Texas State govern
.ment today are seriously contemplate
ing the necessity Of stopping the ad
mission of Mexican refugees. Three
thousand entered at Ell Paso in two
days and thousands more are lining up
In struggling hordes pleading for asy-
lum under the protection Of the Stars
and Stripes.
The federal government officials are
reluctant to take drastic action with
out the official sanction of the Presi-
dent, but the Texas State officials and
the people generally declare that the
pauper invasion has gone far enough
and exclusion now seems necessary.
1 The condition of the refugees is
most pitiable. Most of them are weak
and Ill from starvation and hardships.
Hundreds Of women and children are
among them. Those who are admitted
have been well cared for by the fed.
eral, state and city authorities and
they evince the utmost gratitude for
the kindness that is shown them.
God bless you, Senora!" exclaimed
Mexican woman today who entered
with several children clinging to her
bedraggled skirts, when a we'll known
society woman Of Ell Paso, taking com.
passion upon the woebegone party,
halted her automobile and bundled
them in for ride to safe haven
There have been hundreds of instances
Of this kind and charity has been
poured out without stint.
The male refugees are Immediately
sent to jobs on the railroads or in the
mines. Some of tho reunions as well
as partings between members Of fam
lilies who have crossed the line have
been affecting to the last degree.
While Carrange and his minions are
trying to stir up war against the Unit
ed States, the peon class of the people
has at last understood that their best
friend is Uncle Sam. This feeling OF
confidence is rapidly spreading and
the officials fear an exodus from Mexi
CO upon larger scale. When ques
toned the refugees state that they are
fleeing to escape starvation and death
knowing they will be safe under Amer
ican, protection.
So many thousands already have
crossed the border, and 80 many more
are pleading for admission, that the
officials anticipate vexatious and
costly problem.

then goes on to quote Spillsbury as
saying that, after General Gomez had
retired to his troops, who were lined
up outside the town, Boyd ordered his
men to advance, whereupon Spillsbury
expostulated with him, arguing that a
fight was sure to follow. Spillsbury is
reported as saying that Captain Boyd
"obstinately seemed to think that the
Mexican general was only bluffing.
and the firing soon began"
He is quoted further:

Mexican authorities asserted today
that the prisoners had been well treat

General Trevino says he received,
some days ago, an announcement from
