TO WITHDRAW CAVALRY FROM
 TEXASB0RDER

MARTA, Tex, April 25 (by Asso- ciated ess).-After year and a half of history making service guard ing the Big Bend border of Texas, the Eighth United States cavalry has been orderd to return to Fort Bliss, Texas, where the regiment was sta toned in the permanent post prior to marching to Marian for duty in the Big Bend.
 During the time the cavalry com mand has been patrolling the great reaches of sandwaste and cactus, a battle has been fought at Ojinaga, op- posite Presidio, Tex, many raids across the border have been made and punitive expeditions followed these into Mexico and killed many of the bandits. The most recent one was the Ruidosa raid on the Nunez ranch March 22 when Captain Kloepfer's troop M pursued and killed five cattle thieves.

THE TASK AHEAD FOR AMERICA

The task of winning prosperity is if anything, greater than was the task of wining liberty.
 It can be won only by our uniting to solve the problems of peace as we united to solve those of war; by con tinuing, each one of us, to do his or her individual, personal share.
 The war expenditures of the gov ernment were not cut short by the signing of the armistice; the immense machinery of warfare could not be wiped out in day.
 We still have an unpaid balance of several billion dollars of war debts We still have huge army overseas that must be fed, supplied, paid, and brought back home. Our disabled soldiers and sailors must be tenderly cared for. Great hospitals and de- mobilization camps must be main tained.
 In a multitude of unavoidable ways the country is still under an enormous war expenditure.
 We have got to finish the job.
The Cordova daily times., 1919-04-25

James Gar Bein aged 15, decided that fiction and good verse was a long felt want which they should supply their countrymen in America. Acting on the decision they issued in December an eight page edition which was pro- duced on a monograph. This hap pened in Mariana, Arkansas, and the magazine was an instant success
 Since then the two editors have moved to San Francisco. The Chinese Youths Magazine now has forty-eight pages, plenty of advertising and an augmented staff The new members of the staff are Raymond Jung, 13 years old, circulation manager; Sam uel Ng, 13 years old, delivery chief, and Low Gong, IT years old, mail superintendent.
 The magazine now boasts a printed cover, for a hand press and stitcher have reinforced the mimeograph. Editor Lum has announced that by

THE RETURNED SOLDIER

What manner of men came back to New York on the Leviathan and the Mauretania? Not boastful. braggart men, te11fn6 tales Of their own prowess. Those who told us that our boys would come back brutalized by their work of war forgot that "the bravest are the tenderest"
 Not in all the journey" wrote a correspondent who made the trip with the men of the 27th Division on the Leviathan, did I hear one of them say that he had killed a German. They had other things to talk about"
 It may puzzle the folks at home to know just how their boys have changed, but changed they are as suredly. They do not talk about their idealism; few American boys are so constitued; but the idealism is there. Only to an occasional man is given the gift of expressing what remains unuttered in most hearts. One of these living voices is Coningsby DaW- son, of the Canadian army and author of Garry On." Writing in "McClure's Magazine" of the returning soldier and the thoughts and ideals he is bringing back, Lieutenant Dawson says:
 Presently we shall take off our khaki, but we shall not cease to be soldiers. We shall not be soldiers in the sense that you dread-swaggers people banded against the civilian by the pride of military caste. You see, we never wanted to be soldiers-the thought filled us with horror. It was your need, the heroic fact that some one had to die in your defense, that made us fighting men. Nevertheless, though we don civilian dress, we have not done with fighting yet We are coming back to man the trenches of kinder social order and to follow the barrage across No Mans Land in pursuit of new heaven and a new earth. Our souls will still be clad in khaki; we shall be brotherhood for righteousness"
 More briefly, that is the testimony of Lieutenant Colonel Theodore Roosevelt, jr., himself of the 27th Division, who predicted that every man who went through the war would be so uplifted that the whole nation would feel their upward urge.-New York Tribune

DANGEROUS BALL WORM
 FUMICATED AT SEATTLE

SEATTLE, April 25 (by Associated Press) To combat the Egyptian boil worm, dangerous pink worm which insists on visiting Seattle every so often, nearly $1,OOO,OOO worth of cot ton is fumigated by scientific pro- cess each year, in two government fumigating stations maintained in Georgetown, suburb. The boil worm, it is said, has spread throughout nearly the whole world except the United States, and because of it's appetite for all classes of plant life, rigorous inspection methods have been en- forced to prevent its entry into this country.
 Cotton shipments from India and China received here are promptly transferred from dock to these fumi- gating stations where the cotton is placed in large, air-tight receptacle filled with poison air. Manchurian and Australian corn have also been sub jected to much the same treatment here to avoid the spreading of now pests.

 John Troy's refusal to assume the
 office of customs collector for the Alaskan district until after the can wasting board makes its award of the certificate of election to the winner or the last delegate election is extremely
 well-timed And it is characteristic Of John Troy that he should so well
 judge the niceties of the situation that he remains in a position where
 he will in no way be connected with
 the boards award. He might, with all the propriety in the world, have as- sumed his office as soon as the con- firmation was made. No one could have found fault with him had he done so. It was the perfectly natural thing
 for him to have done, and many men
 would have gone ahead without a thought of other matters which it might involve.-Fairbanks Citizen.
 The governors proposition to ap- point a shipping board to charter or buy vessels to be used in opposition to those now running in territorial waters migt be a good scheme, if it worked out right, and cheapened rates and improved service; but if it only accomplishes the purpose of running the lines now serving the territory out of business and then blows up, the people will be the losers. The present companies have given as good service as the business warranted, and no less than ten freighters and passenger vessels have piled these waters all winter. With but five mill lion dollars to buy ships and with but four vessels in operation the people would have no service at all to speak of If these boats did not need re- pairing and made trip week, and were not wrecked, and could get cheap help, the proposition might pay, but it won't We are not against the proposition but it is unwise to burn our bridges behind us, until we are sure the proposition is as feasible as it's supporters would have us believe. It will take hundred million dollars to duplicate the lines now serving us, and fifty million dollars more to pro- vide docking facilities, agents, ware house and other necessary requisites. Valdez Miner
 Every red-blooded. loyal American citizen will most heartily endorse and 1 urge the passage of a bill introduced by Representative Pennington, of the fourth division. The bill speaks for | itself and follows: "An act to prohibit | and prevent within the territory of Alaska, the use of any flag, banner, ol ol any oyHDoA- izing, or intending to symbolize, a purpose to overthrow by force CT vio- lence, or by physical injury to per sonal property, or by the general ces- sation of industry, the government of the United States or the government | of the territory of Alaska.
