WYOMING TO LIST
HER WAR VETERANS
STATE HISTORIAN is APPOINTED
TO GATHER
DATA

CHEYENNE, Wyo., June T.
Every doughboy, leatherneck and
COB who wore a uniform during the
world war and claimed Wyoming as
his home will have his name, home
address, and full military record on
file in the office of the newly Gre
ated historical department of the
state government, so that future
generations may know the deeds of
the present generation.
The work Of compiling these rec
ords was commenced during the
war by the council of national de-
Tense through Miss Agnes Wright,
state librarian, who undertook to
organize county and local commit
tees to gather the data. Then the
legislature decided that now was a
good time to accumulate a past"
and authorized the appointment of
a state historian.
The new department is taking up
the work unfinished by the council
of defense and volunteer workers
are eagerly assisting in gathering
facts about WyOming's participa-
ton in the war. Personal reminis-
cences are valued highly and state
officials believe the work when
completed will provide valuable
sidelights on the war which will be
of great interest, and historical
value.
The historian is trying to make
the compilation more than a mere
report and a catalogue of names.
Each volunteer historian is asked to
gather interesting anecdotes of
Wyoming's fighters experiences in
whipping the Hun and send them
to the State Historical department,
Room 302, Capitol building, Chey-
enne.

contact with safety and meet and
commingle for the common benefit
of the world. After the war this
question will come more and more
before America, Europe and Asia
and it is a question that must be
solved before 1t can be said that
the world is on a permanent peace
full basis.
Can East meet West on an equal
footing? Must the two civilizations
remain forever separate, never to
meet in harmony? This is the vital
question of the future, and it can
be settled by only two powers,
America and Japan"
Reviewing the possibilities of the
coming conference in Toxic next
April, Viscount Kaneko said in con-
clusion: "If we have free and frank
talk, America and Japan can come
to a peaceable solution of what diff
ences exist and long years OF
friendship will follow"
Baron Shibusawa, who was arbi-
traitor between the American ship
ping board and the Japanese ship
builders, said in part:
I'VE are now passing through one
of the greatest crises of human his
tory and it is natural that men IAN
not take the same careful survey OF
all around them as in normal times,
and they are led to say and dc
things without due knowledge. You
have probably heard references or
read in the press things that may
not be pleasant to the United States,
If you have noted such, l need not
ask you to take these only as ex-
pressions of b%ewildered minds, be.
wildered because of the vast events
which are o going on. When
we emerge we will pass out of the
present storm into the clear weather
of understanding.
81 am convinced hat the two civ
ilizations are Of such real charac-
ter and genius that they are des-
tined to harmonize."

new MEANING FOR
MONROE DOCTRINE
"AMERICA FOR NORTH AMERI-
CANS" SAYS ARGENTINE
EDITOR

LONDON, June 6.-Belief that
Great Britain can have the trade of
South America for the asking de-
spite the competition which the
United States has built up there
during the war, was expressed by
Gordon Ross, formerly financial ed
itor of the Buenos Aires Standard,
in an address he delivered here re-
Gently. Mr.. Ross is quoted as say
ing that there is in some South
American REPUBLICS a jealous fear
of the extension of the influence of
the United States and he repeated
the statement that it had been Gym
ically said in South America that
the Monroe Doctrine meant not so
much America for the Americans"
as America for North Americans"
Mr.. Ross told his hearers that
British neglect OF advertising in
South America had an important eff
feet upon their trade; that 1t was
important that catalogues should be
published in the language of the
people and that prices should be
quoted in the currency Of the coun-

DIG CANALS FROM
COLUMBIA RIVER
SEVEN LOCKS NECESSARY TO
CARRY WATER OVER
DIVIDE

HOQUIAM, WASH, June Con
struction of a chain of three canals,
to connect the Puget Sound with the
Columbia river which has been dis
cussed for years is being considered
very seriously by the department,
according to Representative Albert
Johnson of Hoquiam.
One of the three bitches, accord
ing to outlined plans, would be dug
from the Puget Sound, near Olym-
pia, Wash, to the Grays Harbor, on
the coast. The second link would
run down the coast, from Grays Har-
Dor to Willapa Harbor and the third
would connect Willipa Harbor with
the Columbia.
Proposals have been made that
the canal at first be built large
enough to handle only light draft
boats. Later the waterway could be
deepened for coastwise craft.
Construction of the Puget Sound
Columbia river canal a Deen con-
sidered since 1854 when Jefferson
Davis, later president of the con-
federacy, was secretary of a AT
that time war department engineers
went over the route and pronounced
the plan feasible. Davis believed
the canal would be of greater wal
time strategic value.
Twelve years ago the late Genera
H. NJ. Chittenden went over the pro-
posed canal route and made a com
plete report. He believed sever
locks would be necessary to carry
the canal over the divide between
Olympia and the coast. He placed
the cost around $15,000,00O.

DEATH OF HIS CHILD
TURNED PANCHO VILLA
TO LEAD BANDIT LIFE
FAMILY MAN AND TIRED OF
BIOODSHED IN YEAR
OF 1918

Ell PASO, Texas, June Fran
cisco Villa, a lover of peace, a hater
of b~loodshed and a family man who
wishes nothing so much rs to work
all day on an American railroad
right of way and go home in the
evening to play with his little son
and continue his rudimentary edu-
cation started when he was a pris-
oner in the Belem prison at Mexico
City, sounds like a paradox.
Vet that was the Villa of 1913
following his escape from prison
where he had been placed by order
Of General Victoriano Huerta. After
escaping from prison and Mexico,
probably through President Ma
dero's orders, Villa came to Ell Paso
and rented a cheap room in the old
Hotel Mexico in the Mexican quar-
ter.
Sitting in a little restaurant of the
hotel, Villa told the present cor
respondent of the Associated Press
his plans for the future, his aims
and ambitions and also of his ex-
pectations for a son to be born to
him at the family home of his wife
in San Andres, Chihuahua. At that
time Villa was known as a reformed
bandit who had followed Madero
Loyalty and who had fought for in
dependence and liberty for his peo-
pie beside the diminutive revolution
airy leader. 1t was not until later
that he again won the title of ban
dit" by his raid on Columbus, N.
M, and his subsequent acts. ,
II am tired-sick and tired of war
and revolutions and bloodshed,"
Villa said in Spanish as he ate the
Mexican dishes served in the little
cafe.

come to the United States to get
away from it all and to get a job
on the Southern Pacific railroad and

There will be a little Francisco
'hijo' awaiting me when l go back

wife) to the border and for his sake
I want to live the life of a working
man in the United States where he
will have a chance to get the educa-
ton which / was cheated out of by
the tyrant Diaz who decreed there
should be no schools in the north
for fear his people would learn OF
his misrule."
Before Villa could find employ
! ment on the railroad Madero was
killed and he organized an expedi'

P|TTSBURG MAYOR
UNKNOWN TO P. 0.
LETTER ADDRESSED TO HIM Is
RETURNED TO THE
SENDER

PITTSBURG, June 6.-That a
letter, addressed to the Mayor OF
Pittsburd, was returned to the
sender marked unknown" by local
postal authorities, was brought to
light recently when Mayor E. V.
Babcock received a communication
from the Mayor of Nancy, France,
after it had been delayed eight
months.
The letter, under date of October
8, 1918, was received in Pittsburg
a few weeks later, but the postal
clerk, who handled the communica-
ton, stamped on the envelope the
intelligence that Monsieur LIE
Marie, de la Vile de Pittsburg,
Etats Unis de AmeriQue" could not
be located in the directory. The let
Ter was advertised, and finally re-
turned to the Nancy executive, who
appealed to the American embassy
in Paris. He explained that he was
exceedingly anxious that the people
of Pittsburg read the words of APP
probation of the folk of Nancy
for two flags presented to them ir
connection with the Bastile Day
celebration here July IA last.
Paris embassy officials enclosed
the letter in another envelope and
re-addressed 1t.
