Mackay Editor
Lands the Job

L. e. Dillingham;, editor of the
Mackay Miner and the Idaho Ranger
and secretary for the Custer county
stockgroWers' association, the Idaho
Stockgrowers' association, and the
Intermountain Stockgrowers associa-
ton, returned last week from meet
ing at Salt Lake City, where he par
ticipated in organizing the Western
States Stockgrowers' & Grazers' asso-
citation, comprising thirteen states.
Mr.. Dillingham; was made secretary
of the new. organization and returned
to Mackay not at all joyless.
During the war Mr.. Dillingham;
was chairman OF the liberty loan
drives, the victory loan, the Red
Cross and the Lord knows how many
other war activities, and it all goes
to show that the country newspaper
man is apt to be muchly employed
in the public interest, trusting that
his, own business will come along
some way in the general movement Of
the tide.

ranza's Rule of Mexico Not.
Government.

Washington. Carranza's rule Of
Mexico is mot a government, but 6
band OF outlaws, both technically ani
practically and "today it is utterl,
| impossible, an enemy of its own people
first and America second" William
Gates OF Baltimore, an archaeologist
told the house rules committee Mon.
| day in its hearing on the Gould reso.
luton proposing congressional in.
quiry into Mexican affairs.
Although asserting that President
Wilson was misled in making his de-
cision to recognize Carranza, believing
the Mexican to be a peoples cham
pien," Mr.. Gates declared in favor of
leaving the solution Of the Mexican
problem with the president. The pres
ident, he said, had not been fully in
formed of conditions in the southern
republic.
Mr.. Gates said his opinions were
based on first-hand study Of Mex
lean conditions for about year, be-
ginning in July, 1917, during which
time he visited parts of the country
not usually seen by a traveller, includ-
ing the states of Yucatan, Vera Cruz,
Puebla, Morales and Oaxaca. For
twenty years, he explained, he had
been building up library Of Mexican
antiquities and literature, and his trip
was to obtain more material and to
"find out what was going on behind
the veil of our censorship and the Car
rama censorship"
Carranza's control includes the main
ports and the railroads., with adjoin-
ing. territory for mile on either side
the transportation lines Mr.. Gates as
serted. This control, he said, was that
''of body of soldiers who are ready
to shoot at moments notice in
country where nobody else has any
guns"
Maintaining that general political
revolution is on in. Mexico, Mr.. Gates
declared the s0-called bandits are the
country people, who, when the Car
ranZistas come in to make raid, take
up their guns and become bandits in
the eyes of the government"
Acting upon the advice of the Mex
lean government, John West ThOmp-
son, an American ranchman living near
Mexico City, has paid the 1900 pesos
ransom demanded by bandits for the
release of his 14-year-old son, the state

YANKEES WE'D GERMAN GIRLS.
Many American Soldiers Marry Wher
Orders Are Misunderstood.

Orders Are Misunderstood.
Coblenz.-Reports of marriages be.
tween American soldiers and German
girls have been received at headquar.
tiers from various parts of the occu-
pied area during the past few days,
but as yet no charges have been filed
against any of the men. 1t is believed
most of the marriages were due to
misunderstanding regarding the anti
determination regulations.
"A week before the treaty was signed
several of the chaplains, through mis-
understanding, informed the soldiers
that marriages were permissible as
soon as the Germans accepted the
peace terms. Officers say that num-
Der of marriages took place before this
belief was corrected by a special order
from headquarters calling the atten-
ton of officers and men to the fact
that until the United States ratified
the treaty Germany and America
technically were at war, and the reg
ulation prohibiting determination was
still in force.

Wells are Sunk
In The Desert

Frank Nelson has been working at
times for a couple of years to sink a
well on one Of the Claunch home
steads south Of the big butte, and up
to date has drilled one hole 400 feet
deep and lost a set of drills in it..
He drilled another 400 feet and
broke into cavern ten feet deep
and the drill landed on a slope in
the cave SO he could not get 1t to take
hold again, and be on straight line
that would allow the drill to operate,
so he has to abandon that hole. The
cavern is within 300 feet Of water,
and they are sorely puzzled to know
what to do.
In addition to all this information
about wells, comes the word that all
Of the wheat in the neighborhood has
dried up.
