THURSDAY MARCH 2. 1916

The leading feature of the March Cen
fury is an article entitled "Our Prison
Problem" by Governor Charles S.
Whitman, of New York, who sums up
clearly and briefly, just what prison re-
form is, what it is driving toward, and
what it is driving away from. Governor
Whitman ia known everywhere a. a
friend of prison reform, and certainly
there are few who should know more
about it than he.

you ever hear anyone say any

bite his nails and bear it. No sympa-

AMERICANS LOCATE
MEXICAN BANDIT
NEAR GUERRERO
Tremendous Efforts Are Being Made
to Head Off Retreat of
Villa.
CARRANZA REPORTS
VILLA IS WOUNDED
Entire Garrizon of Carranzaistas at
Guerrero is
Slaughtered.

San Antonio, March 31.-The
United States troops and Villaistas
have clashed.
The Americans caught up with
Villa and fired upon a portion of his
forces. They are now making a tre-
mendous effort to check the headlong
flight of Villa and force him to fight.
Troops located Villa working along
the railway extending south of
Guerrero.
General Funston gave these re-
ports today. He stated that the
source was reliable. He refused,
however, to give the source. Gen
eral Funston stated that he is posi-
tive that actual fighting occurred be-
tween the American forces and the

GRAND FORKS
=: FEARS FLOODS
Water of Red River Of the North
Rising One-tenth of Foot
an Hour.

Grand Forks, N. D., March ST.
With the Red River Of the. North
rising at the rate Of one-tenth of a
foot an hour and having already pass
ed the six-foot mark, fear of a great
food In this section of the country is
daily becoming more apparent. AL
ready at certain points the river has
commenced to break from it's bed and
unless conditions are relieved, will
undoubtedly submerge a large area
of land in Grand Forks county.
The ice is broken up at this point
and huge cakes are now floating
down stream. Farther down the
Red the ice remains intact and at
Winnipeg it shows no signs of break
ing up as the snow is several feet
deep and the sun has had little effect
upon the thick ice. This indication
points to a dangerous climax in this
district, where the stream, checked
by the ice jam which must evenaually
be the result, will break away from
it's bed.
The Red Lake river, which flows
into the Red, has risen but very little
but the waters are now backing up
as far as Crookston, where big
power dam is located. Above the
dam, according to the city engineer
of Crookston, the ice is still solid and
has shown no signs of breaking up.

Armory Title Must Be Clear to State
Otherwise No State
Aid.
PLAN OF CITY OFFICIALS
WILL BE DROPPED IS BELIEF
Plan Was to Construct Building to Be
Used for City and
Armory.

The proposed Bemidji armory can
not be constructed so as to be used
to house the city officers of Bemidji
as has been suggested by q Bemidji
weekly paper and several city off,
eials.
Information to this effect was re-
ceived this morning from the United
Press association.
Title Must Be Clear.
"The title of any armory building
in getting aid must be made abso-
lutely clear and unencumbered to
the State of Minnesota, without res
ervation in connections of any Sort"
Colonel George C. Lambert, secre-
tary of the State Armory board, to-
day told a United Press representa-
tive
Law Ironclad.
This is law and it's ironclad,"
said Mr.. Lambert. II have not look
ed up the law regarding the build
ing of a city hall at Bemidji with
the armory. Attorney General Smith
would have to rule upon this phase
when formal application has been
presented to me. 1t appears that un-
less the city of Bemidji would want
to built it's own city hall and then
give the State of Minnesota free and
unrestricted title for the entire build
ing, there will be no state aid for
the city hall-armory joint plan.
There is no objection to the city con-
structing such building and retain
ing the title but it would not get
state aid
1t had been proposed by several
city officials have a building con-
structed that could be used for pub
lie meetings, rest room, Offices of the
city officials and of the police de-
partment, besides the armery. The
new joint building, it was estimated
would cost $4,000.
That the plan will be dropped as
the result of action by state officials
is certain.

stories, spread broadcast through Co.

to fear that Villa is about to make a
second raid on this community. One
story, which grew as it passed from

have predicted the raid on this town
March 9, asserted that he believed the
bandit chieftain with a small part u
his band, had doubled on his trail and
was now in the vicinity of Santa Ma
ria in the Gaznan district, about 65
miles south of the border.

Foulois today claimed in face of criti-

daily encountering conditions unfaced
previously. The mountains of Mex
leo create shifting winds and dan
gerous air pockets. The altitude a
mile above sea gives them only an
other mile of leeway, on account OF
the maximum altitude of two miles.
