push the proposition for the estab-

The creation of the new county.

TO do what they can to help the
movement along. We have talked to
several of the most prominent citi-

intention of those at the head of the
movement to circulate a petition, Sc
curing the name of everybody in the
proposed new county on this petition
so that it can be presented to the

hundred people who own land in the
territory that do not reside here we
are publishing the following proxy
to the chairman of the committee
asking him to sign their name to the

have purchased land from the Bunnell

and the Volusia Land Co. that are in
favor of the move will help the
movement if they will sign the fol
lowing proxy and mail it at once to
the Chairman. Flagler County Com
mittee. Bunnell, Fla.
We feel sure that everyone who
has contract for lands with any of

sirable in the State. eB sure and sign

THE WAR OF BATHS

fict. Il is war of baths. The
struggle has reached the stage Of bit
ter retaliation.
When General Pershing withdrew
his expeditionary force from Mexico
his troops were followed by horde
of Mexican refugees. The health au-
thorities on the northern side of the
Rio Grande thought il well to adopt
thorough-going hygienic precautions.
The normal Mexican. il appears. is
not overzealous in his ablutions. He
can take baths or let them alone,
and he-or she-generally chooses a
course of careful. premeditated alb
stention. The FL Paso officials there

international bridge was obliged to
take a bath. and in most cases il
was a gasoline bath. The refugees
walled and cursed, but without avail.
They had to submit to the pain and
humiliation of being, for once. thor
oughly sterilized.
The treatment ranked. The greas-
ers meditated revenge. And they are
now taking it. Word comes from
Juarez that the authorities there
nave adopted retaliatory quaran-
tine Every American crossing the
international bridge to Mexican ter
ritory is stopped and obliged, willy
