BAKER ISSUES STATEMENT
Border Militia Question and Sending
Of Fletcher to Mexico Capital Now
Hold Interest.-ViIIa and Carranza
:, Are Busy.

Washington.-The final act in the
entrance into Mexico of 10000 Amer
lean soldiers as a result of the Villa
massacre of IL Americans at Colum-
bus, N. NJ, on March 9, 1916, was writ
ten with official announcement by the
War Department that General Perish
ing had been ordered, and actually
had started to bring his troops back
to the United States, -:
Secretary Baker issued the follow
ing announcement:
General Pershing has been ordered
to bring his troops cut of Mexico. The
movement is to be an immediate one,
and probably is already under way.
Later advices to the department said
that the troops already had begun the
evacuation of Colonia Dublan, 10
miles from the border, where they
had been concentrating during the
past few weeks. The last American
soldier is expected to recross the bor-
der in about a week"
No official information is at hand as
to whether Villa or CarranZa troops
will occupy the territory left vacant
by the Americans, but the belief is
strong here that the bandit, who is
credited with, at least, 5000 well-arm-
ed men who is now, at least, four
times as strong as when the American
troops went across the border, will
make a desperate effort to take the
territory particularly for it's moral
effect. The two other phases of the
Mexican problem on which interest
centers now. are the disposition of the
more than $4,000 militia still on the
border, and the sending of Ambassa-
dor Fletcher to his post at Mexico
City. Officials say no decision has
been reached in either of these ques-
tions, but that both are dependent on
the turn of events in Mexico.

''In most of the provisions of the

viction that the literary test consti-
tutes a radical change in the policy
of the Nation which is not justified
in principle. It is not test of char

merely as penalty for lack of OPP
portunity in the country from which
aliens seeking admission came. The

A tract Of eight thousand acres on
Mount Mitchell, N. c., has been pur-
chased by the federal reservation COM
mission.
The federal reservation commission
announces that it has purchased forty
five hundred acres of land in the
White Mountains of New Hampshire.
It is stated that on the collateral
deposited by the allied nations OF Eu-
rope, they are entitled to loan or
seven billion two hundred million dol
lars.
Small Woman, former wife OF Sit
ting Bull, who annihflated Custer and
his command in Little Big Horn in
1875 and who himself was slain in
battle fifteen years later at Wounded
Knee, is dead at the North Dakota
Fort Berthold Indian reservation. She
died from injuries sustained in the
burning of her cabin, from which she
escaped uninjured, but returned for
an old shawl which she priced highly,
and it was then that her clothing took
fire with disastrous results.

Mexican

The final act in the entrance into
Mexico of twelve thousand United
States soldiers as result of the Villa
massacre at Columbus, N. NJ, on
March 9, 1916, was written with Off
ciaI announcement by the United
States war department that General
Pershing had been ordered and &C
tually had started to bring his troops
back to the United States.
There is no official information as
to whether Villa. or Carranza troops
will occupy the territory left vacant
by the departing Americans, but the
belief is strong in some circles that
the bandit, who is credited with hav-
ing at least 5000 we'll armed. men and
who is not at least four times as
strong as when the American troops
went across the border, will make a
desperate effort to take the territory,
particularly for it's moral effect.
With the last, American soldier out
of Mexico, the, Mexican problem can
be viewed in a new light. From now
on, it will not be possible for Car
rama to meet American demands with
counter demands for the withdrawal
of the troops.

INDIAN BOARD AT GENEVA.
National Commissioners Hold Session
at Summer Home of Mr.. and
Mrs. e. A. Aver.

The United States Board of Indian
Commissioners began its midsummer
session at the Geneva Lake summer
home of Mr.. and Mrs. Edward A. Aver
On last Wednesday, which meeting will
be the first ever held in the Chicago
district. The board is composed of ten
members, who are 'aiG to know more
about the human side of the Indian
problem than any like number Of citi-
zens in the United States. Their du-
ties, which are performed as a labor
of love without pecuniary remunera-
ton, take them into the homes of In
dams in every part of the United
States. Every year the members of
the board travel by rail, stage, auto
mobile, wagon and horseback to visit
ten to thirty Indian schools and reserv-
ations some Of which are three days
team travel over the sands of the west
ern deserts from the nearest railroad
station. TIE recommendations of the
board are welcomed by the government
on any matters relating to the policy
to be pursued by the administration
toward the red men. Since its creation
by President johnson In 1868, although
it has no official authority, it has done
much to soive the Indian question.
Mr.. and Mrs. E. A. Aver, at whose
home the Indian board is now meeting,
have many friends and few relatives
in Kenosha. Mr.. Aver is close stu
dent of Indian affairs and in addition
to being member of the commission,
is trustee of the Newberry Library,
to which he presented over 10000 vol
umes on the Indian question. Mrs.
Aver is nearly as well versed in Indian
