Funston Expects to Have 10000
Guardsmen to Patrol Border Line

San Antonio. Tex, June 27.-With
the regulars, officers and men, ready
for any eyentuality along the border,
attention has been turned toward
preparations for the arrival of Ma
tional Guardsnen and the whipping
into shape of those army units which
will take the place of the troops now
stationed along the Rio Grande.
Twelve thousand guardsmen last
night started for somewhere in
Texas" Nine thousand others are ex-
pected to follow Immediately and
within ten days Major Funston is ex-
pected to have 10000 to supplement
the regular army units at his dis
posal.
While other departments of the
army are awaiting the word from
Washington or the incident which will

for any additional troops sent him.
1t is planned that about 5000 of the
state troops will be stationed at Fort
Bliss, while camp sites were laid with

the remaining 5000. General Bell said
that the water mains had been laid.
sewer connections made and the
ground leveled, leaving nothing for
the guardsmen to do upon their ar
rival but to ser up heir canvas.
Arrangements have been made for
the drilling of recruits by non-com-
missioned officers of the regular army.
Military authorities today compiled
lists of motor cars and motor trucks
in Ell Paso available for army use in
emergencies, and arrangements were
made with four l2eaI hospitals to care
for overflow pul7snfs from the base
hospital at Fort Bliss.
The cities on the border were calm
tonight. Excitement caused by ru-
mors that American end Mexican
troops had again clashed between
Carri2al and Villa Ahumada was al
layed when American and Mexican
military authorities denied the report.
Discussion on both sides of the
river centered upon President Wilson's
demands upon CarranZa Mexican Of
ficials and Mexicans of the better edu-
Gated class said they did not believe
there would be any objection to sur
rendering the American prisoners
taken at CarriZal. The concession
they said, ought to satisfy American
pride, but they expressed fear it
would not. In the Mexican view the
CarriZal fight is simply an object les
son as to the danger of letting the
American troops come In contact with
the Mexicans.

FORUM ST THE
PEOPLE
LIQUOR LITERATURE AFLOAT.

Editor, The News:
The enterprising publishers of
liquor journal dOmiciled at New Or
leans, wasted bit of fragrance on
desert air. when mailing to the writer
a copy of their issue of June 6, 1916,
lin which appear the greatest array of
distorted facts and deformed fancies
ever observed in d sheet of similar di-
mansions. dedicated to the interests
of those who sell and drink red
Ticker in states and places where its
sale is forbidden.
At the head of the editorial column,
if the sheet is really edited, under
caption, Special Notice" appears the
sOmnambulistic assurance, IF any
person receives copy of this paper
who has not subscribed for the paper
himself. it means that the snbscrip-
ton has been paid by some friend"
deny this allegation and defy the al
ligator to print the name of any friend
of mine who paid for such paper to
be mailed to me.
The literary gem quotes Fred Sui
lens. editor of the Jackson News, as
follows: Although Mississippi is
officially dry the painful fact re-
mains that lots of people in this state
still have a thirst. So long as this
thirst exists, just so long will there
be demand for liquor. And so long
as the demand exists, ways and means
of supplying il win be found. The
new liquor law is making criminals
out of people who have hitherto been
respectable and lawabiding. 1t is
creating liars and perjurers by the
thousands every day"
Such a whitening charge by such
worthy champion would seem to SINCE
our state law and the industrious
publishers of the New Orleans sheet
might we'll have rested their case on
Frederick's peroration; but, with the
energy. industry and indiscretion of
editors of such organs, they proceed
in the same issue to quote from Hen
Try Simms, prosecuting attorney or
Huntington, West, Virginia. as fol-
lows: Liquor cuts smaller figure IN
crime than most persons believe. Mr..
Simms declared that criminals are
born instead of being made of envir
onment or other outside causes" our
esteemed Freddie to the contrary not

DECLARES BUSINESS
 FIRMS EXPECT TOO
 MUCH OF COLLEGES

PHILADELPHIA, Nov. 16.-Com- plaints that business firms in this country expect the schools and univer- sities to turn out finished business men for their use and advocacy of more intensive study of local problems in school work, were presented by speak CTS at today's sessions of the Confer ence on Universities and Public Ser vice at the University of Pennsylvania.
 Reform of the national civil service laws was also discussed.
 "The business houses today expect the schools and universities to turn out a finished business man for then" !" said Frank McVey, president of the University of North Dakota, land this is imminently unjust. During the four years or so that the student is under our care it takes all our time to instill in him the fundamentals of a business education"
 The high cost of living and the sta- tionary standard of wages offered by the government were given as the req sons that men would not at present train themselves for public esrvice by Professor c. W. Kemmerer of Prince ton.
 The present system of civil service laws was condemned by Charles Me Carthy, chief of the Wisconsin legis- lative reference library.
