To intervene In Mexican affairs at

said DR.. David Starr Jordan upon
his return from an interview at the

q view to adjusting Mexican troubles.
He declares that investigation shows
the Mexican revolutionary movements
are a necessity in the reformation Of
the archaic and harmful remnants Of
the old Spanish regime. In the states
not affected by the war there is en-

the war-ridden states. DR.. Jordan
hays. a start for order has been made.
and out Of the revolutions has grown

way instead Of borrowing money at
ruinous rates.
DR.. Jordan advocates the patrol Of

COURT DECIDES COUNTY CLERKS
MUST TURN OVER FEES

Denver. Nov. 6.-The supreme court
today rendered an opinion which will
compel the return by the county clerks
of over one hundred thousand dollars
to the various county treasurers of the
state. The opinion is in cnnection
with the fees collected on game and
fish licenses. The present law was
passed six years ago. 1t provided that
the clerks might retain 25 cents out
of every dollar which they collected
under the licenses for hunting and
fishing. In the last six years they
have collected approximately $4,000
Under the opinion the court has rem
cred today, the legislature had no
right to provide such a payment to
the county clerks.
The case has been before the SUI
preme court for some time. 1t first
came up from Ell Paso county and the
court held that the law sought to in
crease the salary of the county clerk
and the law held that they could not
have their salaries increased in that
manner. A second case was brought
up from Arapahoe county and carried
to the supreme court. and today the
in the Ell Paso county case and direct
ed that judgment shall be entered a
gainst the county clerk of Arapahoe
county for the amount he has thus re-
tanned In some instances the county
clerks will have to return as high as
$500 or 5000.
