MEXICO WILL
Be NEUTRAL
SAYS Chief

Mexico City, Sept. 4.-President Car
rama in his address 10 congress on the
occasion of the convening of the twenty
eighth session of the legislative body
dwelt at length on internal and foreign
questions as they affect the republic.
lie derlared it was the determination Of
Mexico To maintain the strictest neutras-
ity in the world war and that neutrality
had been observed in the past. lie said
that the administration had upheld Mex
ico's rights to sovereignty in situations
brought by the presence or Americans
warships in Mexican waters. and the en-
listment in the United States of citizens
of Mexican origin. He also defended the
course of the republic in the issuance of
presidential decrecS for the carrying out
OF article - of the constitution provid-
ing for the naturalization of oil lands.
The neutrality uolicy of Mexico, TIE
president said. had been adhered to by a
ma lor portion OF the Mexican citizenry
and the government had met the various
critical situations with complete regard %
national honor Mexico'~ honor and SOW
ereignty had equally been upheld against
acts directed against Mexican residents
in the United States by the American au-
thorities in the recruiting of MexcanS
for the United States army and finally in
the Nogales incident in the latter part of
August, which the president asserted wa~
merely local disturbance.
The principal points in the presidents
a t.r ,...l-
icy were that no country can, in any form
or for any motive interfere with the af
fairs OF another, but all must observe the
principles of no Intervention: that no
foreigner, because of his foreign citizen
Ship can pretend rights superior To those
Of citizens of the country in which he re-
sides and that legislation must be uni
form with regard to Mexican citizens and
foreigners.
The Mexican government, the message
continued, has answered satisfactorily
and maintained with firmneS~ IL rights
against the diplomatic protests and rep
reservations of the United States, Great
Britain. France and Belgium with regard
To the petroleum question. The basis for
the refusal to confirm the proposed com
mercial agreement between Mexico and
the United States known n the Mito-
Fletcher agreement, was given n the IN
clusion in the projected agreement Of
clauses contrary To Mexico's right. by the
intimation that this rejection was con-
nected with references apparently Includ-
ed in measures which were deemed con-
trarv to Mexico'S sovereignty.

(BY ASSOCIATED PRESS.l

Dallas, Tex, Sept. A strange pro-
cession Of canvas-covered wagons. drawn
by mules, for more than month has
been creeping ont Of west Texas with far
merS and ranchers who have despaired OF
trying 10 make a livelihood on the land
that has been parched under a blazing
sun and has seen virtually no rain for
thirty-six months
The emigrants from this particular Sec
ton have turned their faces toward the
cotton fields of eastern Texas and Okla
homa. where work for all can be easily
obtained. In some parts Of the west Tex

From the panhandle and the northern
section OF the state come reports that
similar caravans, reminiscent III half a
century ago, mar the exodus of farmers
from those districts who are moving to-
ward Colorado and farther west.
The war has played IL part with the
departing homeSteader. but lack Of rain
has been the real factor Most of the
settlers have been on land rented from
the state. Some have spent years of la
bor building up their herds and others
have been working the land into profit
able state of cultivation.
But the drought came and the cattle
died in numbers and those that did not die
were too weak to bear young. Livestock
men said the calf crop in west Texas this
year was a failure.
Some settlers had accumulated enough
money 10 travel while others borrowed
money with which to make their departure.
In many cases the war added 10 the trag
edy by taking away young men whose
strength might have made it possible for
farmers 10 hold ion until rain came
The country which the settlers are
leaving l. that west and north Of Fort
Worth and Dallas, ranging as far west as
the state boundary and south Of the Pan
handle counties. In the panhandle there
were rains IN the spring and occasional
showers later that kept grass with which

Golfer STANDS FOR
TRUE DEMOCRACY

Senator Fred T. Golfer, Democratic
candidate before the primaries for
governor, refuses absolutely to enter
into war of mud-slinging, muck
raking or personal villification. The
senator's high record is too clean for
anyone to believe he would indulge in
methods that disparage others, either
directly, indirectly or by innuendo.
Senator Golfers career as a man of
affairs as well as legislator of Ari-
IONA is an open book, and if any
Democratic voters should fail to vote
for him because they have not learned
his true history and have been misled
by false statements. it is regrettable.
His strong fight in the CONSTITUTIONS
Convention and State Senate shows
clearly his attitude towards those in
terests that seek to avoid paying a
just share and proportion of taxes.
His strong leadership in procuring
Womans Suffrage, prohibition and
other moral legislation; his attitude
and successful work as a legislator
towards the reclamation of arid lands;
the building of roads, bridges and
highways; all show him to be man
for the people-for all the people.
The vast amount of money being
spent by the Copper Corporations to
defeat Senator Golfer is but an evil
dence of how soulless are those cor
porations. Money is their God, and
they worship Mammon as did Ahab OF
old, and as Ahab was full of wrath
against Elijah, so are these copperized
magnates and their satellites full of
wrath against Golfer.
"And it came to pass when Ahab
saw Elijah, that Ahab said unto him,
art thou he that troub1eth Israel? And
he answered: 81 have not troubled
Israel; but thou and thy fathers
house in that ye have forsaken the
commandments of the Lord, and thou
hast followed Baalim."
And as the Lord did unto the proph-
cts of Baal, so will He do unto these
selfish Interests that would place the
heavy burden of tax paying upon the
poor classes. Speaking la General
Foch, we would say: THEY SHALL
NOT PASS"
Hurrah for Democracy! Hl1rah for
Fred T. Golfer, our coming Governor
Stockman-Farmer.
