CARRANzA COT
MILLIONS FROM
GERMAN AGENTS
Money Sent From United States
r to Mexico for Use of De
Facto Government
GERMANY HAD PLANNED
HOSTILE CAMPAIGN
(United Press,)

Washington, March 2.-Millions O
dollars have been sent the Carranz;
government recently by Germans il
the United States, it was learned or
high government authority today
Some Of these millions were persona
loans to Mexico, and others went in
to the purchase of smelter plants
wherever available in Carranza's re
public. These loans were sent into
Mexico in spite OF the warning OF
United States officials that such loans
would not have the support of this
government unless having first met
with the approval of Washington.
Planning Hostile Acts.
This was one of the countless de-
velopments arising today, following
the discovery by Secretary Lansing
and others of the carefully arranged
German plot to align Mexico and ia
pan in war against the United States.
1t was definitely established that full
instructions were sent to German con-
suls in America at the same time
the Zimmerman letter was sent Am
bassador Won Bernstorff. These in
structions, it was learned, covered
matters of instruction to be left by
German consuls with special agents
of the government when they left
this country. The scope OF the in
structiOns were broad and in many
respects startling. They all go to
show that Germany had been plan
ming hostile acts in many forms
against the United States for some
time. The United States will be
equally ready to make some startling
announcements in time, it was said.
She United States government
agents are directing their attention
today against German activities in
the Tampco oil districts, where the
oil supplies for the British navy are
obtained. 1t is feared that the Ger
man agents will attempt to force the
Mexicans to cut off the British sup
ply.
The recent uprising of the Felix
Diaz followers is attributed to Ger
man influence. Ten German officers
are said to be in the employ of Fran
cisco Murgia. Carranza commander OF
the northern division, according to in
formation obtained by the United
States government agents here. One
OF them is quartermaster general at
Juarez. At other divisions there are
many others. among them chief of
staff to General Garvia of the state
of Durango

When the sixtieth day Of the Fif
teenth legislative assembly opened a
2 o'clock this afternoon, no need fo1
an evening session to close up the
work of the legislature seemed ap
parent. Calendars OF both houses
were practically cleaned up, and all
that remained was to determine the
fate of less than dozen bills now in
the hands of conference committees.
Both the house and the senate met at
10 this morning and worked steadily
with only a brief respite for luncheon
until 2, when the 59th Legislative day
closed. ''''''''''''
The senate closed it's 59th day with
but two bills remaining on it's calen-
dar for third reading: These, House
Bill 2SS, providing for the issuance
of warehouse receipts on packing
house products, and House Bill 1853,
relating to style OF summons in gus
tice court, are not regarded Of srtfl-
cient Importance to involve much OF
the senate's time. The afternoon will
be devoted by the senate principally
to conferences over a number OF bills
returned amended from one house to
the other. The most important OF
these is Senate Bill "a, providing for
the creation of terminal elevator
commission, to be named by the gov
ernor. and empowering this commits
sion to spend 100000 in the con-
struction of a terminal elevator in
side or outside the state. The senate
declined to concur in the house
amendments to 81 this morning, and
also rejected house amendments to
2S6, 157, 301 and 15S, on all of which
conference committees were named.
Other important senate bills yet in
conference are 137. the Sunday base
ball measure, and As, the general
game bill.
The house this morning concurred
in large number of senate amend
ments to house bills and named con-
ference committees on House Bills 1S
and 40. The conference committees
on Senate Bill 1876, the general apprO-
priations measure, get together this
morning and reached an agreement
by which the appropriations for the
Valley City normal, the board of con-
troll and the county agricultural train
ing schools at Maddox and Park riv,
er will be reinstated, as concessions
to the senate, while the senate will

(Associated Press)

London, Mar. 2.-The Turks are

While the Franco-Belgian front op-
erations continue to be featured by

able reawakening along the front in
Russia and Galicia. With the ad-
vancing season increasing activity
appeared in sectors all the way from
Riga to the Rumanian frontier.

PROVE CONNECTING ROAD.

Phil Hartman went to Ko0skia on
some business Thursday afternoon. He
found walking with the Thermometer
104 In the shade along two heated
steel rails, even though q down grade
was no pleasure, and made him look
over to the east where before the flood
a good wagon road connected the two
towns with one another, wondering If
the people In Kooslxia missed the road
that was washed out as much al the
people In Sites. Upon arriving In
Kooskia he found that the rebuilding
Of the wagon road in places where It
was washed out was real live issue
with the people In Kooskia. So with
both town seeing the need Of good
river road 1t should be an easy mat
ter to get together and get 1t started.

POTATOES WHERE IRRIGATED,
SPROUTING In GROUND

The potatoes are said to be spropting
before maturing in the lewiston
Charleston country, and the agricpltur-
nj departmental head at the State uni
yersity at MOSCOW, thinks 1t Is CAUSED
bv letting the vines get dry and then
rushing the water onto them IN too
great quantities. One gentleman here,
who has lived in an irrigated country
in south Idaho, says there is hardly
year there that the potatoes DIP not
have little protuberances form on
them by improper irrigating. A
Grangevilie citizen who has in an acre
or two of potatoes informed the Globe
man this week that while the vines In
his large patch are dark green and
looking as fine as could be desired,
that he dug into seven hills this week
and found only one potato. He says
| his ground is mellow and fertile and
he is unable to account for the lack
of productiveness. The Meadows Eagle
| tells of gardeners in that country re-
| porting having dug out good potatoes
| in missing hills where no vines show
ed at all. That certainly Is happy
| freak Of nature, but the other unusual
conditions mentioned are very discour-
aging. The Craig Mountain potatoes
got 4 heavy dose OF early frost the
first of the week, which is said to have
blackened the vines and caused them
to fall fat to the ground. All these
adverse rumors caused the editor to
dig into his potato patch this week,
and he found IS potatoes Of small size
! In HILL All they need to make an
en- rmous yield is sufficient time before
| frost catches them. Ii anything has
happened to the potatoes within your
experience, let us hear about 1t.
