A RANBHER'S 0PININ OF
RAILROAD LABOR LAW

To the Editor of The Times:
| was listening to the act of con-
gress, relative to the dispute between
the railroad managers and employers
which was passed last week, and it
seems to US if they had passed an act
providing for the earth to turn on its
axis once in twenty three hours in
stead of twenty four it wouldn't have
sounded any more ridiculous than this
act they have just passed.
The act only deceives the railroad
employees and is very much for the
railroad companies. The employees
work for the same wage and for the
time as they have been doing unit
the first day OF January, and in the
mean time the railroads have a right
to discharge them and employ Others
| in their place and instruct them in the
| railroad business for the next foui
months, and if the railroad companies
at the expiration of the given time
don't see fit to retain these present
employees, and give them ten hour:
pay for eight hours labor who has
the power to force them to do it?
The railroad managers under the
| constitution have a right to contract
with these men for a certain amount
of labor for certain amount OF
money, and if they don't see fit tc
accept it that is all there is to it.
The President of the United States
has no right to interfere with any
private property except as a military
necessity, and the congress has nc
right to interfere with and private
property except as a public good, and
we don't think the members of the
United State Congress should pass an
act SO undignifed as this.
respectfully
| G.. II. Plummer.

HOG CHOLERA

Hog cholera is a disease that the
Mason Valley farmer must contend
with in order to raise swine success
fully. An outbreak occurs and kills
off ali hogs that do not have a high
resistance to the disease. The Jew
hogs left increase; the resistance dis
appears in the succeeding generations
and we are again visited by cholera
The only method the federal govern
ment advises for the absolute pre-.
vention of cholera is the "simultane-
ous" treatment Of virus and serum
This treatment makes hogs cholera
immune for life.
All purebred Bcrkshircs pigs at the
Nordyke Stock Farm have been Civ

will hereafter be sold guaranteed tc
be cholera immune.

FIELD HEADQUARTERS NEAR CASAS
GRANDES, June 90. (by radio TO Colum-
bus ~ M.).-Detachments of our cavalry
working east and west of the line of COM
munications in defiance Of the Carran2n
order met no opposition. Supplies continue
to reach Colonia Dublan by rail from
Juarez uninterrupted, either by natives or
de facto troops.
Reports perss. that the natives are being
armed, but there is no reliable information
concerning concentration of any consider
able force of Carranza troops within strk-
ing distance of the American line This
may be due to the fact that General PERISH
ing has sent word to Carranza leaders in
no uncertain ter-as that any such movement
would be taken on their own responsibility.
The Carranza garrison at Casas Grandes,
from which place General Pershing's head
quarters vas today but three miles distant
has not been reinforced
News that the entire National Guard
had been called out was reported to the
camp last night, General Pershing would
not comment. The situation remains at
hair-trigger. but the fact that Carranza has
made no move to enforce his demand that
our troops move north if at all, has caused
the belief in some quarters that he is
bluffing
General Pershing's emphatic retort to
General Jacnto Trevino, Il take orders
only from my Government; please make
that plain TO General Carranza," elected no
reply.
The American troops are now enduring
the hottest days of the campaign, A few
drops of rain fell yesterday, but the rainy
season has not yet arrived.

HEXAMER CHALLENGES
CRITICS OF HIS POLICY
Says German-American Alliance,
Which He Heads, Welcomes
Investigation

A thorough investigation by Congress Of
the alleged disloyal conspiracics of the Ma
tional German American Alliance will be
welcomed, according to Or. G. J. HcNamer
its president, who sent an open letter to
Philadelphia newspapers today. Doctor
Hexamer. in the letter. declared that such
an investigation would end once for all the
slanderous attacks upon the alliance
The letter. which was written in reply to
n letter from Maurice Leon, of New York,
to newspaper, follows in part:
IL beg leave to state that any one who
makes the assertion that the National Ger
man American Alliance directly or indirect.
ly through its officers or agents has at any
time had any communication with any Eu-
ropean Power or that the National German
American Alliance has directly or indirect.
~ committed any act in favor of any for.
eign Power Is utteriug u deliberate false
hood
"G defy any one to adduce proofs that the
National German American Alliance has
ever done anything that Is not consistent
with the principles of the highest Amer.
lean patriotism.
ut is high time that loyal American citi.
zens who happen to be of German descent
and who have perfect right to their opu.
ions, should not be unjustly made to suffer
through chauvinism and noisy demagogues.
by all means let us have a thorough
investigation of ;he National German Amer.
lean Alliance by Congress. In order to stop
once sand for all such iniquitous attacks,
which, through ignorance or maliciousncss,
attempt to intimidate those who have fear
lessly expressed their opinions such an
impartial report by an investigating COM
mittee of Congress would also place rcpu-
table newspapers in a position to refuse to
print slanderous communications in the
future"
