The trouble last week at Nogales
seems to have simmered down to
watchful waiting on both sides OF
International avenue, with "a con-
stantly diminishing prospect Of any
further fighting. Two deaths from
wounds received in the fight in
creased the American dead to four
in, number within couple of days
after the battle; the number of Mex
lean dead is variously given at 30 to
4O The Mexicans have another
trouble on their hands in the shape
Of Yaqui uprising, but seem about
Ia get that affair settled with less
difficulty than attended their brush
with the Americans. A Yaqui &C.
casionally acknowledges that he is
licked: an American soldier not only
is never licked but wouldn't admit il
If he was.

N. N. COUNTIES SHORT ON
CUT GLASS AND WATCHES
Carlsbad Must Depend on Sun for
Time; no Bicycles Found In
Four Counties

There are a primeval people in
Eddy county. Living in the classic
shades of Carlsbad they are sus-
picious Of the modern inventions,
such as autos and clocks and so on.
There isn't a single solitary gold
watch in the county, according to the
return made by the assessor to the
state tax commission. They depend
altogether on the sun in Eddy oun-
ty.
Nor has effete civilization pene-
trated too deeply into Curry and De
Baca eonties. Among all the great
and wise and rich and well to do
there, as well as in Eddy county,
no such toy of the parasitic rich as
n piece of cut glass has ever been
permitted to hypnotic dollar out
of u reluctant pocket. Those coun-
ties still eat ON hardware of the I'M
breakable china type. Cut glass
sounds too much to these sturdy
pioneers like aristOcracy.
Curiously enough, also in these
three counties and in Colfax county
as well there isn't a single bicycle to
be discovered.
Last but not least there isn't a
single burro in Curry county. THIS
is endorsed by the attorneys gen
eral office which is entirely recruit
ed from Curry county.
The gains in these five counties
exceed "a, l25,00 over 1917.

and that Walton # TIE only Dem
oerai IN sight with anything IN the
way Of q war record which win even
mike d showing against the Fan rec
ord. His friends expect TO get him
some votes BY conlending that Fan
has often spoken against some Of
che acts Of the administration. which
IS true to some extent Fab spoke
against the slowpess Of the admin
istration when he proposed bis man,
power bill months ago, and the ad-
minisiration is now fairly certain
that the provisions Of the former
Fall bill are absolutely necessary for
the winning Of the war, which ac-
tually makes FAN a very valuable
man to have around the senate n
times ike this.
The Democrats are hard pushed
for suitable governor. Felix Gar
cha is the man they want to run,
and It is against the wishes Of the
intended victim. II can be said that
Mr. Garcia is well known GENTLE
man, splendid Democrat, and a
man who has always been a power in
his own precinct. Aside from good
intentions he makes no particular
claim TO any particular qualifica-
tons for the office. d. X. Sellers,
Of Bernalillo county, would like to
be governor, but will be disappoint-
ed. +. +. Yeeder, of San Miguel, is
the selection of the bosses, if they
do not feel forced to nominate a
Spanish-Am and see a chance
for electing their real choice.
They need a candidate for the
United States senate with fewer OBJ
ioctionable features than attach Ia
those they now have in line. The
possession of large bar'l will moi
be considered bar TO the nomina-
ton.

with the truth IN politicsi The Dem
ocrats are right up against It for a
candidate for the United States sem
ate; everybody knows al about Il,
and the full truth will not hurt
Hanna is probably their strongest
man, but for the fact that he is not
Democrat. He was elected as an
Independent Republican, and has
never formally declared his inten-
ton Of staying in the Democratic
party, if he is now in. As the DEM
ocrats Of the state are showing
many signs Of uneasiness because Of
the nomination Of independents"
etc, to about all the good offices,
Hanna will probably lose the votes
of many old line Democrats.
Walton is the most popular can
didate with certain kind Of Demo-
Gratis, but many will fight him be-
cause Of his record in all the terri
tOrial legislatures and the state leg
islature in which that little senate
journal affair was pulled off. These
men viii claim that the Republicans
never actually needed the Walton as
instance that they did not get it, and
they will proceed to prove il by
journals Of the Legislative bodies t.
which he belonged.
Richardson is considered better
equipped for the place than Walton
but many Of the old line Democrats
will fight him for exactly the same
reasons charged against Walton, ant

they win add to that Biz little ad.
venture with The Republicans Of the
constitutional convention. Those
oldlIme Democrats insist that the
Republicans needed Richardson to
help them ont, and had him, as they
also had him in times Of need in ter
ritonal legislatures These Demo-
Gratis insist that the Republicans
became ashamed Of the record they
made In the constitutional oonven-
ton and caused the journal to be
thrown awayat least they made q
bad record and there was no journal,
and Richardson, posing as a Demo-
GRAFT, assisted them in preparing a
journal which did not show the adj
vantages secured by the Democrats
because Of the support given bet
ter measures.
Tallmadge is the fourth offering,
and impossible, for more reasons
than one.
To sum mp, the Democrats have

FARMERS. ATTENTION!
Here is a New Ruling OF Interest
to All Wheat Growers.

Hamp Williams, federal food
administrator for Arkansas, III
response to numerous inquiries
relative to wheat held by farm
ers, has made the following
special ruling.
Farmers who grow wheat will
be permitted to retain enough
and have it ground into flour to
last them until the next harvest.
"They will also be permitted
to retain enough for their own
seed purposes.
"In the event, after retail ming
enough for personal consump-
ton and seed purposes, provided
the surplus is not too great, they
will be permitted to sell their
wheat to farmers who have not
wheat for seed purposes. They
must first satisfy their County
Food Administrator that such
sales are for seed purposes. We
prefer that small surplus wheat
be kept in the community in
which it was grown and that
every inducement be made to
get larger wheat crops. In every
instance, however, farmers with
wheat should get in touch with
their County Food Administra-
tors, who will assist them in
every way possible.
Farmers who take wheat to
the mill for flour for their own
consumption should not at any
time take home from the mill
more than thirty days supply
of flour. The mill will have a
record of the wheat ground and
the flour the farmer is entitled
to, but he should limit his a.
mount of flour from wheat he
grew to thirty days supply, and
at the end of the month get an
other months supply.
The Monticellonian. [volume] (Monticello, Ark.) 1870-1920, 1918-04-26

AT the earnest solicitation of
the Federal Administration, Sem
ator Joe T. Robinson is making
some speeches, in this State, in
behalf of the third issue of Lib
erty Loan Bonds. Senator Rob
inson is one of the recognized
leaders of the United States SEN
ate, and in close touch with Pres
ident Wilson on all important
measures now confronting the
people of this country. His re-
election to the Senate will be by
an overwhelming majority. For
his second term he really should
have no opposition, and would
have had none had it not been
for the overwhelming ambition
of one man.

THE 18th SENATORIAL DIS.
TRlCT QUESTION.

Some of the people over in our
sister county of Desha, chiefly
the politicians, seem to think it
ungrateful usurpation of privi-
lege for Drew county to have a
candidate for Senator, or for the
Drew county people to have any
thing to say about who the Sena-
tor should be. Their argument
is, that Drew has had the Sena-
tor for eight years, and that, &C
cording to some limited at agree
ment) Desha should now have
the Senator for the next four
years. As a matter of fact, if
there was ever such an agree
ment made it was irrelevant and
without authority, and violative
of the fundamental idea of the
lawmakers in framing the Dis
trict and giving the people there
Of the right to elect their Sena-
tor.
A Senatorial District is a unit,
and to all intents and purposes
county lines are wiped out. Ev-
cry voter in the District has an
interest in the Senator who is to
represent the District, and such
Senator, when elected, is pre-
sumed to be District and not a
county man. Another thing, any
qualified voter has a perfect
right to offer for Senator, no mat
ter in what part of the District
he may happen to reside, and it
is then left to the voters to de-
eide for whom they will vote, af-
ter carefully considering the rel
alive fitness and qualifications of
the respective candidates. 1t is
obvious that the central idea OF
the law-making power, in the
formation of Senatorial Districts,
was to create enlarged units ip
order that more available mate
rial would be at the voters com
mand.
According to our view, il
should make no difference from
which county the Senator comes
but the main idea is to select the
best that offers, let him come
from whatever part of the Dis.
trict he may. To do otherwise
would be to subordinate a very
high and valuable prerogative
for a foolish and trifling senti
ment, and might result in plac
ing over the District a most in
ferior if not, indeed, dangerous
i man.

Secretary of War, Baker, has

ty of the situation. He is now at
work speeding up the transpor-
tation of American troops to

rotary to have the United States
