Under this head it is declared that the American gov ernment, assuming to act as the agent of humanity has uttered protest against the policy of Great Britain, involving the starvation of. German women and children, and which the same time involves an invasion of the trade rights of America The bringing of such indictment against the American govern indicates the German hopelessness of any satis factory arrangement with the United States
 The other sinister thing in the German press utterances is a comparison of the advantage subma- warfare gives Germany, with the advantage to that country continued friendly relations with the United States the latter th5 papers point out there is nothing to gained If the United States really neutral there would still be nothing to be gained. Therefore abandonment of the subma rine warfare or a modification of it meet the American demands would be clear loss Here is a revival of considerable German sentiment that eX- pressed itself at the time of the receipt of the first Lusania note and the sentiment was then so strong that it doubtful for time whether the break would then It is improbable that anything has since occurred abandonment of it. The present note demands notifications of submarine warfare that not then suggested.
 We should accept with regret the utterances of the Berlin press as certain indication of of the German reply. And all Americans hope that within the next three days way out of the difficulty may found that will offend the dignity of neither country that will leave the rights of both in and peace, amply protected
 It is quite probable that the entente allies them would welcome break between the United and Germany. Whether not this country has acted as any sort check upon German submar me activities latey the allies evidently do not to see the check formally removed. A further inter ference with their commerce could not be offset by any aid the United States could give them.

MAXWELL MAKES A
 MILES ID GALLON

Many automobile owners are watch ing he rise in the price of gasoline with feelings akin 10 dismay, but this particular phase in the high cost of living is causing Maxwell owners but little concern, says NJ. O'Neill Maxwell dealer here.
 Mir. O'Neill has just received word from the Detroit offices of the com pany that an economy test conducted April 7tn, q Maxwell stock touring car hung up another Maxwell record by clipping off A miles to d gallon of gas oline This test, made under discour- aging weather conditions. and other similar tests about the country. are proving a source of satisfaction 10 all Maxwell owners.
 The day on which the Detroit test the freezing mark, when the start was was made was cold the thermometer registering only . few degrees above made. At the beginning of the run there was q strong head wind and the finish was made along several miles of rough gravel road. With these adverse conditions eliminated, the Maxwell un- doubtedly would have added several miles to its total
 A stock touring car was used. with standard equipment and loaded with 1 driver and three passengers the total ] weight carried, including passengers, , car and accessories being 2,7S0 pounds.
 The start was at Birmingham. in ! Oakland county, and the first part of l the Journey was made down Wood ward avenue into Detroit. The North 1 Grand Boulevard and other streets were followed to Michigan avenue wkerc the road led straight out to Ynsil2nt
 A persistent head wind threatened the success of the test and four miles east of Ypsilanti, the gravel road be- gan. The going was extremely rough but the entire length of the gravel road was encompassed, the engine stopping just as the front wheels touched the asphalt pavement of Ypsilanti's main street The last drop of the one gallor of gasoline upon which the test was made was consumed.

Our Failure in Mexico

I is now evident that ncursion into Mexico hlunder almost criminal in the circumstances which undertaken. In the light of recent developments it was foredoomed to failure After the weeks delay in getting a was only one thing that could have done give it the slight 'st promise of and that was not done North ern Mexico should have been thoroughly "combed" so that there could have been place Villa could hide. That the plan recommended by the general staff and rejected by the president the usual procession of brave words, hesitation vacation and then inactivity.
 He feared that what the general staff composed "f experienced told him was the only effective measure that could have been taken, would be mis- construed by Mexico and he forced upon the officers in charge of the expedition expensive and hope less campaign. It would have been better to send d posse comtatus. That would not have cost nearly so much and would have held out a certain promise of being just successful as the punitive expedition"
 II the United States had any prestige left in Mex ico after three years of and bundering it will have left after the American troops have been withdrawn, they probably will be within the next week. Already the word is circulating among the peons. and believed that the Americans were de- feated and fled after the fight ParraI When they have been withdrawn it will be understood by three fourhs of the people Mexico for all time that they were driven ingloriously of the country
 IL is said that it is a of Mexican history for home consumption with relation to the Mexican of lS4sSs, that the American troops under Gen. eral Scott were defeated taken prisoner were lowed Co leave the country only on the payment by the United States of heavy ransom This perhaps ls only little more inaccurate than much that is taught in our schools regarding American success in But if considerable part of the Mexican people have been led to believe that the Americans were beaten in the Mexican war it will be much easier to make all Mexicans believe the punitive expedition has been driven out of the country And we must confess that the surface indications will warrant such belief.
 Many, most Americans believe that conditions in Mexico never be permanently any better without intervention by the United States or In the case of our continued inaction, by powerful European nation. 1T that is and we feel and act some time upon our sense of responsibility peace and order ln the western hemisphere we shall find that the dis mal failure of the punitive expedition has made onr task a harder one.

The Republican Convention

The republican county convention Saturday marked by degree of liveliness that indicated great degree of confidence No other republican con vention in this county in years could be pared with il in this respect Other meetings of publicans in Maricopa county, and generally through out the state have been rather formal affairs designed only check up and maintain the party organization.
 Throughout the meeting Saturday it ev- dent that the delegates believed that they saeed in something that had a direct relation national victory and they wanted, therefore have place in it. Hence. whatever scramble there for place
 on one point there seemed to be difference of opinion and it was the main point. In fact. there should have been point in convention called to secure representation in national convention There was such tacit agreement upon Roosevelt the choice of Arizona in the national republican ventiou that thought worth while discuss that subject Indeed in the circumstances in face of the repeated request of Colonel Roosevelt that his name be kept out of state primaries and conventions discussion of him candidate would have been cut of place Whatever contests there were in hehalf of men known to be friendly him.
 We were pleased to observe the tendency in the convention 10 confine its deliberations matters bearing only upon national politics. It. called for other purpose. We that the deliberations of The state convention will be similarly limited and he selection of candidates for and offices win be left another time and place This flor the people settle in the that they cnose the delegates to the convention Saturday

The American Note and the German prss.

The voice of the Berlin press significant of the action of that government the American note If the voice had been of wild clustering we might find in t a hope that when the wind had passed bv there would be grudging accession to the American demands But the recognition of the gravity of the situation by journals less inspired their dis position to weigh the question: and their expressions of regret that such situation had been brought abont augur ll for continuation of the rrendly relations between the two countries
 Two things stand out in the German newspaper comment on the note. One of them is the declaration that the note is only another step toward the cul- minaon Of American unneutrality that infested itself in various ways since the beginning of the war an acceptance Of the belief that America determined Q" hamper the operations of the central powers and hint that as good point for break with the United states has now been reached will ever be found

FL Paso, Texas, June 21-A de-
tachment of American cavalry ciasned
with Carranza forces at Carrizal, about
ninety miles south of El Paso early
today, both sides suffering heavy cas-
ualties, according to unofficial reports
received by Mexican military authori-
ties tonight. According to the report
which the Mexican authorities are in
vestigating, forty Americans were kill
ed by machine gun fire in a surprise
attack
The Mexican casualties were said
not to have been heavy, but General
Felix Gomez is named among the Next
can dead.
The American command is said to
have been part of the scouting patrol
from Guzman, returning to General
Pershing's line of communication.
Later General Francisco Gonzales,
Mexican commander at Juarez, gave
out the statement in which he an
nounced officially that the Mexican
command had taken seventeen Ameri-
can prisoners. He also said General
Gomez's death had been confirmed, but
said he had no official reports as 70

The wounded, both American and
Mexican, the exact number of whom

Ahumada.
Ask Americans to Withdraw
General Francisco Gonzales made
the following statement:
Immediately upon learning of the
presence of American troops in the
vicinity of Carrazal, General Gomez
dispatched a message with a request
that the American commander with
draw his camp. When the American
troops remained motlonless he sent a
second dispatch bearer, who was fired
upon by the American troops after he
delivered his message. The Americans
Immediately moved forward and at
tackled General Gonezs command
"All the prisoners admitted that the
blame should be put on the American
commander for having ordered the at
tack. The prisoners were taken to
Chihuahua City with the customary
protection"
General Gonzales said that the re-
port of the engagement was made to
him by Lieutenant Colonel Genoveso
Rivas, who succeeded to the command
of the Carranza troops with the fall Of
General Gomez General George Bell
Jr., who was first informed of the fight
b. Mexican Consul Garcia, said that
no military action would be taken in
El Paso while orders were awaited
from General Funston. In the mean
time, he said, his forces were ready
for any demonstration from the other
side of the Rio Grande.
General Bell said there was no ques-
ton but that fight had taken place
but was inclined TO dlsbelieve the re-
port than any American had been
taken prisoners.
