will withdraw his objection. 1t Is on

that is the diastomaticity OF elementary

Cut Across Throat
Last Sat. Night

The negro who was killed Saturday
night at the road camp about three
miles east of Sutherland, and who was
brought to this city by Undertaken
Vinson and buried in Rose Hill ceme-
terry Sunday, was killed in a fight over
fifty cents in card game. The Clear
water Sun gives additional details as
follows:
Late Saturday night, at sawmill
camp four miles east of Ozona, ne
gro named Ike Whitmore was cut to
death by another negro named Pete
Thomas.
It is stated that there had been
card game between the two men, and
a dispute arose over the sum of fifty
cents. During the fight which follow
ed, Thomas killed Whitmore by cut
ting him across the throat with d
knife.
The murderer fled and has not yet
been captured.
AS quickly as possible Sheriff White
hurst was notified by telephone, and
he went at once to the scene of the
murder. The killing occurred about
midnight, and although the sheriff re-,
sponded as promptly as possible after
being notified, the murderer had got
more than an hours start, and up to
this time has not been apprehended.
Coroner Chas. H. Evans formed a
jury early yesterday morning and
went to the scene of the killing, and
after making such investigations as
could be made at the time, adjourned
the inquest until 10 o'clock this morn
ing, at which time it was continued
in the circuit court room. Many wit
nesses were examined, and when all
the testimony was in the jury decided
that Ike Whitmore had come to his
death at the hands, of Pete Thomas.

The Leader has been congratulated
by number of Tarpon's leading bus
mess men on the letter yesterday from
a tax payer suggesting that Mr.. A. NJ.
Lowe be urged to accept the nomina-
ton and run for a place on the city
council. There is absolutely no one
who can find any objection to Mr..
Lowe other than those who may de-
sire special privileges and feel that
Mr.. Lowe is too smart a business man
to be fooled and too honest to be Gin
duced" to vote for anything not to the
best interests of the city. The Leader
is glad to see so many business men
expressing themselves as anxious to
get Mr.. Lowe on the council. There
is another letter in today's Leader
from Tax Payer No. 2, endorsing Mr.
Lowe and suggesting another of Tar
pon's substantial business men for q
place on tire council. Read it.

Boost Export Duty on Oil.

Mexico City, Feb. 26.-Decided in
creases in the export duties on crude
oil and it's products are provided in a
decree outlined by the department of
Fomenta and now awaiting the sigma
ture of General Carranza.
According to the decree the tax will
be graduated according to the specific
gravity of the oil. Oil of a higher
gravity than "a will be taxed 80 CEN
tavos ton and lighter oil will pay 10
centavos additional for each degree
less than. "a. A tax of per cent Of
the commercial value VIII be placed on
refined products, which now pay no ex-
port tax. The present tax of sixty
centavos ton on crude oil for Mexi-
can consumption is abrogated. A tax
Of 120 centavos is imposed on oil vast
ed at new wells or not utilized from
flowing wells.
The proposed decree is intended to
become effective July 1. The present
export tax is sixty centavos ton
regard to gravity.
1t is believed the tax will increase
the governments revnue largely, but
oil men say it will make it difficult for
Mexican producers to compete with
foreign companies on kerosene, gaso-
line and other derivatives.

Mexico City, Feb. 26.-The cartridge

Japan has been unloaded at Manzanil-
10 and will soon be put in operation.
Two hundred japanese experts came
to set up the machinery and operate it.
The government hopes the machinery
will make Mexico independent of otn-

Clash Near Oiinaga.

Ell Paso, Tex, Feb. 26.-As a result
of skirmish between Villa troops and
government forces thirty miles south
of Ojinaga reinforcements were sent
out from the Ojinaga garrison today
in an effort to locate the Villa, bands.
Villa recruits were reported to have
crossed the Rio Grande near Fort Han
cock, Tex, yesterday to join a Villa
command which was reported to have
been in the vicinity of San Ignacio,
Chihuahua, recently.
In the skirmish seventeen of the
Carranza force were killed and many
were wounded, while the Villa force left
ten dead on the field, according to
Mexicans who witnessed the battle. 1t
is believed that the battle was prelim-
mary to an attack on Ojinaga.
A Mexican paper issued an extra late
today stating that Jose Ynex Salazar
and his command were within four
hours ride of Jaurez and would as
sault the town from the southwest
while Manuel Ochoa attacked from the
southeast. This report was discredit-
ed by the fact that the railroad COM
munication between Jaurez and Casas
Grandes continued uninterrupted to-
day.

1t is said to be the same with lemons,

While the railroads make special eff

OUR DEFENSE IN THE AIR.

successful campaign, either on the
land or on the water, in the face of a
marked superiority of enemy air
scouts. Balloons and aeroplanes have
become the eyes of the fleets as well
as the armies of the warning nations.
r Something over a decade ago the
Wright brothers conducted their first
experiments, and we can remember
the thrill that swept over the country
when those famous men managed TO
stay up in the air for two minutes,
clearly demonstrating that they could
fly.
Recently at an exposition in New
York city there was exhibited along
side of the big, frail looking machine
of the pioneers a modern biplane, with
its enclosed car, upholstered seats and
strong body, looking as safe for pass
enger and driver as the modern auto
mobile Outwardly there was no SIM
ilarity, inwardly there was none, and
yet there they were, both aeroplanes.
What improvements the future has
for this kind of craft no one knows,
but it is not stretching the magma
ton very much to believe that they
are going to be more common than be-
fore. The extensive use of aerial ma
chimes in Europe's warfare has adj
vanced their development more than
a century of peace What their ulti-
mate development may mean to peace
full pursuits we can not tell, but GER
tainly in the field of warfare, they are
needed as much as artillery, or pow
der or troops.
America has excellent factories,
splendid experts and courageous avia-
tors, but the government is not yet
assured of their co-ordinated support
in times of need A good way to en-
encourage this development would be
to offer government bounties in the
shape of prizes for cross-country
flights and other special accomplish
rnents.

THE CRIMINAL WASTE OF FOOD.

THE CRIMINAL WASTE OF FOOD.
One day last week the city of New
York dumped into the sea 100000
pounds of food which had been con-
demned as unfit to eat. This is just
a small percentage of the total
amount of food which this great city
has to throw away every year because
it is allowed to spoil in transit. Every
other city has the same thing to hap
pen in amount relative to the size of
the place.
Consider the vast amount of vast
age this means. Think of the advance
in the price of commodities which are
marketable in order to make up for
this annual loss. 1t would be easy to
feed millions of people in this country
on the food which, the nation wastes
through extravaganza.
It is fact that in some vessels car
