TWO LIQUOR LICENSES GRANTED
 FOR MCCARTHY.

Yesterday Judge Fred Brown, of the district court, granted two new liquor licenses for Mccarthy. Some time ago Davis and Conway and Gottschalk and Cloninger, of this city, made ap- plication to the court to open places of business at Mccarthy, but Judge Brown decided to defer action until he had made an investigation of con- ditions there. By the granting of licenses to both of the above firms there will hereafter be three saloons at Mccarthy instead of one, as at present.

CARR{ANZA DEMANDS WITHDRAWAL OUR TROOPS
MEXICAN CIVILIANS FIRE UPON U. s. SOLDIERS

WASHINGTON. April 13. - The state department officials regard the note of President Carranza about withdrawing the American troops from. Mexico more as an invitation to com mence negotiations tending to limit the stay Of the Pershing expedition, rather than a direct demand for their immediate withdrawal. Secretary Lansing will reply at once to the note, and probably will hand his mes sage to the Mexican ambassador to-, morrow, as the position of this cour-- try regarding the entrance of the Americans into Mexico is clearly de- fined, and the officials have no doubts about the first negotiations warrant
 ing the action taken by this govern - ment.

CANS OR ALL DEMOCRATS.
No Obligation. However. TO Vote the
Straight Ticket in November
Election.

II was reported yesterday that Ger
tain Democrats were intended To vote
the Republican ticket in today's pri-
mary election. al the same time writ
ing in the names OF some Democrats
on the Republican ballot This cannot
be done under the state election laws.
The same thing applies 10 persons vot-
ing a Democratic ballot-they cannot
insert the names OF Republicans for
any office.
However the voting OF a Republican
or Democratic ballot TO-DAY. does not
mean that the voter j. required 10 vote
the straight party ticket in the Novem-
Der election. This ruling has been
made by the prosecuting attorney and
other law officers of the state.
Another point has arlsen-whether
the voter can write in any name he
pleases whore they party has had no
names entered for the primary and
none appears on the ballot. This APP
plies more especially To the Democrats
in Ohio county. where for many of the
minor offices, such as justices of the
peace. Consiables. etc. no entries were
made. These vacancies will have TO
be iilled later by the party com
mittees.
