Truck Market Conditions in Columbus

Mr.. ]. c. Ingram and the county
agent made II trip TO Columbus last
Friday TO work up market In truck
products and incidentally Mr.. Ingram
tried to sell several hundred pounds of
excellent peas picked on the Paul ].
Case ranch. The market in Columbus
was found 10 he quite dull owing 10 the
fact that 2OOO of the Columbus troops
had been ordered TO III Paso and also
owing to the fact that Major Conlin of
the Zone depot in III Paso has issued
an order that soldiers in Columbus
must buy their supplies through the
CommisSary there and the Commissary
must get its supplies through FL Paso.
The supplies are shipped from III Paso
on a Government bill Of lading so the
troops are required to pay for their
products just what they cost in FL
Paso Any of the III Paso dealers may
ship their products TO Columbus on the
Government hill of lading.
From this It looks as though the FL
Paso people had n "cinch' on the
business in Columbus. However, eff
forts will he made at once TO have some
change made in that regulation which
is as unsatisfactory to the Commissary
department in Columbus as 1t is to the
growers of truck products In Luna
county.
We are sometimes caused TO wonder
why certain rulings are as they are.

Chicago, Dec. i5.--Restrictions on

preached normal basis. Regional
directors continued to exercise control
over distribution. however.
From nearly all the coal fields re-
ports came that fully 90 per cent Of

Stores In many cities opened at the
regular hour today and factories began
operation on full time: The restoration
of hundreds Of passenger trains was
begun and regional directors said for
mer schedules would be In force in a
day or two. Shipments Of newly mined
coal weKe started today and were ex.
pected to be in the hands Of dealers
within few days.
In some mines the men will be busy
for a day or two cleaning up debris

EsrHoNlA's TROUBLES.
Country Politically Between tho Devil
and tho Deep Sea.

Dorpat, Dec. l2.-Unless some un-
foreseen development occurs. peace
between Esthonia and soviet Russia
probably will be an accomplished fact
in the near future. There seemingly is
no doubt that the negotiation Is not
an armistice, but has in view a full
peace along lines formed by the boil
sheviki. The present aim OF the soviet
seems to be to follow UP the defeat OF
General Yudenitch by making 1t i'm
possible for him or any other leader
to organize a campaign in Esthonia.
For weeks the bolsheviki have been
concentrating troops on the Narva
front, where extremely heavy attacks
are new in progress. and the fear Is
not concealed that Esthonia may be
occupied II that country refuses to
conclude q peace. Indications arc that
powerful entente, influences are being
exerted to prevent q peace. SO that Es-
thonia n between the devil and the
deep blue sea-" Still another Is the
pressure OF public sentiment for q
cessation Of hostiIlties. Esthonia Is
aghttns only defensively.

WILSON REFUSES TO

Hold Republicans Responsible for
Failure to Ratfy World Agreement
-Borah Makes Sensational Charges.

Washington. Dec. Is. - President
Wilson's statement that he had no
compromise in mind and that he would
make no move towards forwarding
treaty action but that he would hold
republican senator's responsible FOR
treaty delay, today brought tho treaty
before the senate. Debate on reso-
luton of peace by Senator Knox prom
ises to furnish debate for several days
Both sides were in accord in the
view that. regardless Of the comprom-
ise plans or the views OF the president,
no action could he taken this month.
The announcement from the White
House. while not in tho form Of a per-
sonal statement from the president.
apparently was dictated by him. 1t
follows: ......
TT was learned from the highest
authority Mt the executive offices to-
day that the hope Of the republican
leaders of the senate that the president
would presently make some move
which will relieve the situation with
regard to the treaty Is entirely with
out foundation; he has no comprom
ise or concession OF any kind in mind.
but intends, SO far as he Is concerned,
that tho republican leaders of the SEN
ate shall continue to bear the undi-
vided responsibility for the fate OF the
treaty and the present condition OF the
world in consequence OF that fate"
The charge that powerful financial
influences are striving to effect n
compromise on tho peace treaty and
at the same time manipulating to
prevent tho treaty from becoming an
issue in tho next presidential CAM
paign was made last night by Senator
Borah republican, Of idaho.
He Issued q stinglng statement in
which he saii he was In favor, after
the holiday recess, Of starting con-
gressional investigation to lay bare
tho enormous profits of these firms.
He mentioned J. p. Morgan & Co. as
a corporation which disposed OF vas:
sums Of Russian bonds IN this coun-
try and one which was most anxious
for the ratification OF the treaty.
He said great sums of money were
being spent In Washington to put the
treaty thru as the result OF any kind
of barter or trade and to exert every
possible Influence to keep 1t away from
the people in 1890.
