SALARIES AND FEES
Time Of Paying County Officials-Pis-
cataquis Reg. Of Probate's Salary

The committee on salaries and fees
Tuesday afternoon had but one bill as
signed for a hearing and one recon-
mitted.
Senator Boynton of Lincoln appeared
for the act to fix the time Of payment
of salaries of county officials. saying that
he appeared for Judge Upper. who drew
the bill but was unable to be present. 1t
was stated that the idea was for the
payment of all salaries monthly instead
of quarterly, as in some cases at pres
ent. County Commissioner Clinton H.
Goodhue of Kennebec county said that as
t6' sag tsaat the Keaesbec commissioners
had Just as soon be paid monthly as to
wait for quarterly payments, hence he
would favor the bill.
Representative Ryder Of Brownville
spoke in favor of the bill for increasing
the salary Of the register of probate OF
Pitscataquis county from $500 to $1,000. He
said that the register at first had two
proposals. one for an increase in his own
salary and one for an increase in clerk
hire but that the Piscataquis delegation
decided that he should not have both and
he agreed to drop the clerk hire increase,
although he would have to pay out part
of any increase in his own salary for
that purpose.
The bill had been reported fought not
to pass" but the delegation had secured
its recommitment, feeling that the regis
ter was entitled to the increase, under
the high cost of living situation. The
delegation was solid in its favor, and
though he understood that one man had
made objections. he didn't think one
mans opinion should outweigh the entire
Piscataquis delegation.

Washington, March 2o-The note to
General Carranza, declining his pro-
posal for neutral action TO bring
peace to Europe by cutting of exports
to belligerents was made public today
at the State department.
The refusal was based first upon the
apparent hopelessness OF peace at the
present time. as shown in the futtlity
of President Wilson's efforts and Ger
many's attempts to embroil Mexico
and Japan in war with this country
and in the belief that any restriction
of commerce with the belligerents
would in effect be an unneutral dis
elimination.
Nevertheless the note concludes,
THE President would not be under
stood as desiring TO impede the prog
ress Of a movement leading to the
resumption of peaceful relations be-
tween all the belligerents and would
not. therefore. wish the Mexican gov
eminent to feel that his inability to
act in the present state Of affairs
should in any way initiate against the
attainment Of the high ideals Of Gen
eral CarranZa by the cooperation Of
other neutral governments in the use
Of their good Offices and friendly me-
diation TO bring about the end Of the
terrible war"
The note mentioned the careful and

WHIRLWIND BOUTS AT
CITY HALL, THURSDAY EVE

Augusta and other followers of the
boxing game are in line for some fast
boxing at City hall tomorrow night
This show promises to be one of the
same brand as the previous bouts held
here this winter, all of which have
been Of a high grade. The main bout
will be between Caick West, the IIo-
lyoke Frenchman, and Tommy McFar-
land of South Boston. the latter TAX
ing the place of George AIger who was
billed to meet West but wrenched his
arm badly last week in his bout with
Joe Connolly in Boston.
West is rated as one of the classiest
boys in the business, but Mcfarland
may be a stranger to a few of the fans
although he is well known to the strict
followers of the game. He is no doubt
one Of the best welterweights in the
business today. He and West boxed
draw recently before the Commercial
A. c. Of Boston.
The next attraction which is at
tracing lots Of attention, will be be-
tween Augustus real lightweight
champ Danny Lorraine, and Young
Pooler Of Bangor. Pooler is we'll
known to local fans as a good clean
boy and always gives satisfaction
while Lorraine needs no Introduction
for the fans all know his agility. The
next bout will be between Spin Ma
guire of this city and Johnny Ahearn
of Bath. and Mcguire will have his
work cut out for him, according to
reports that are coming up from the
Shipping City. There will also be
another bout. Harry Sears will ref
cree Cars for Gardiner, Winthrop and
