PLEAD FOR PEACE
People Warned of Interests STIR
ring Up War Between Us
and Mexico.

Three exiled archbishops of the
Roman Catholic church in Mexico,
who have made their home in Chica-
60 for the past two years, have is.
sued remarkable plea to the people
of the United States that there shall
be no thought of war between the
United States and Mexico.
Their appeal has been sent out be.
cause of the activity of American oil
corporations and American and Euro,
pean bankers in trying to force Mex
leo to surrender the Tampico oil
fields under threat of the starting of
war between the two republics.
Mexico, under her constitution,
claims that the oil was never sold
to foreigners-that the government
still holds title, and has merely given
permits for the pumping of oil, which
permits can be cancelled at any time.
The Standard Oil interest and it's chief
agent, Doheny, with their European
banking connections, insist that the
oil fields have become the property
of the companies. This oil is the one
last resource held by the Mexican ma
ton that can readily be made to yield
a big revenue.
These aged bishops, through ref.
ugees from Mexico have no sympathy
with the exploiters. They said in
part:
''In Mexico anarchy is abetted by a
few aliens; and our people are an.
gered. by unwarranted foreign inter-
ference in their domestic concerns, an
indignity which proud and sovereign
race cannot lightly endure. The pur-
pose Of these activities is made plain
by a press which is filled with the
threats and portents of a new war,
the work of a small group of heartless
and thoughtless men against our own
wel1.beloved people of Mexico.
I'VE, the undersigned bishops of
Mexico, are impelled to appeal to the
citizens of the United States and to
the citizens of the republic Of Mexico
to be patient and forbearing with one
another, lest the amity which just
men desire to preserve and foster
should be disrupted by the machina-
lions Of the evil forces now arrayed
against it. We desire that wise coun-
sci should. displace all thoughts Of
violence in the consideration Of such
differences as exist, or as may be Gre
ated, between our dear land of Mexico
and the land of our refuge"
The signers of the document from
which these words are quoted are
Francis Plancarte. archbishop of Lin
ares; Leopold Ruiz, archbishop of
Michoacan, and Francis Orozco

ARMY TRUCKS

Supt. Russell Completing
the Seasons Work on ST.
Johnsbury Highways

The frequent appearance through
out the day Of army trucks on the
principal streets of St Johnsbury has
attracted much attention and many
people have wondered just where all
the gravel is going and for what pur-
pose it is being used. A representa-
tive of the Caledoian recently found
w. P. Russell, the efficient road COM
missioner, and learned much about
what has been done in the past sum-
mer in road repairing that our tax
payers will be gla dto know.
Just now MI. Russell is completing
the job re-surfacing the highway be-
tween st. JohAsbury and Danville,

gravel is secured from the bank own

Officials explained that the wal
time act provided it should be annul-
led by the President when peace had
been declared and when the army
and navy had been demobilized.
Congress was informed yesterday
in message vetoing the enforcement
bill which the House passed over the
veto, that rehabilitation had been
completed.
The White House announcement
clears up any doubt as to whether the
war would be ended legally with the
ratification of the German treaty.
Some officials had expressed an opin-
ion that the war emergency would not
pass until the Austrian treaty had
been passed upon by the Senate.
Effort to have the Senate act on a
motion to repass the prohibition bill
over the presidents veto was made
soon after the Senate convened to-
day. Several democrats objected
and long parliamentary wrangle en-
sued. Debate was progressing when
Senate recessed to receive King AL
bert.

LANDSLIDE FOR
SUFFRAGE in
THIS STATE
So Say Suffrage Association
Workers Who Have Com
pleted 1000 Mile Trip

The Vermont legislators have been
for the most part friends of the Suf-
frage movement but a startling
change in the sentiment of many who
have hitherto been unfriendly was
noted last week when committee
representing the suffrage interests of
Vermont called on a majority of the
| legislators to ascertain their views on
special session for the purpose of
l'atifying the Federal Suffrage
amendment.
Men who had hitherto been SEEM
ingly unalterable in their views of
suffrage turned about and showed
themselves its warmest friends. A
trip of nearly 1000 miles was made
throughout almost every county in
the state and poll of Legislative
opinion taken. The result surprised
even the suffrage workers themselves.
In one case a prominent Senator
shook the suffrage workers hond on
leaving and declared: 1--WE been
convinced l ought to support this
thing because I've had it demon
strated that my wife is better cit
izen than | am. I'll come to spec
ial session and vote for the federal
amendment and I'll pay my own eX-
penses."
What has brought this change
about is a question but that the
change has come cannot be denied.
Some men state frankly they have
been won over because of the work
which the women performed in the
late war, emitting them to full par
ticipation in the affairs of ,neir gov
ernment if they are equally affected
by great national crisis or the results
of mis-goVelnment. And an equal
ly astonishing fact brought out by
the canvas was the character Of the
men supporting the movement. The
representatives of the little towns far
back in the hills were as posted on
the good effects Of suffrage in prac-
tice in other states, perhaps more so,
than representatives which came
from the larger towns.
1t was astonishing to drive for
miles to reach some little hamlet and
find some farmers home where the
wife took as much interest, almost, as
the husbands themselves. This may
be due, of course, to the interest nat
urally taken in civic affairs in the
household where the head of the fam
lily was a state legislator. But the
fact remains that there is an entirely
new day dawning for suffrage, in
Vermont, day in which the idea of
the old-fashioned "suffragette" is nd
longer associated with the ideals of
the cause as advocated at present.
Out of scores of legislators inter-
viewed in a trip covering 1000 --.''~~
not single man refused to support
special session and 60 - vote
in favor of ratification. All the leg
islators were not interviewed on
this trip but the first man to turn his
back and have nothing to do with
suffrage was not found.
The suffrage workers were radical
ly encouraged by what they have
found and as one woman of the par
ty expressed it indications begin to
point toward a landslide for suffrage
in Vermont"

Some years ago negro was walk
ing along 42nd street in New York
from the depot to his prospective ho-
tel, carrying a heavy suit case in
one hand and d heavier valise in the
other. Suddenly hand was laid up
on the valise, and the pleasant face
Of a stalwart young man looked into
that of the negro.
"Pretty heavy, brother. Suppose
you let me take one. Pm going your
way"
The negro protested, but the young
man had already taken hold of the
valise. They walked on together for
several blocks, talking like old friends
until they reached the hotel.
"And that,p said Booker 7. Wash
ington, short time before his
death, "was the first time | ever met

This is the week for the drive for
the Roosevelt monument and mem
orial fund and st. Johnsbuly will be
thoroughly canvassed by the commit
tee whose names have already been
published. The committee met Sun
da yafternoon and organized by
electing Robert E. French, chairman;
DR.. Dale S. Atwood, secretary; Ar
thur G. Sprague, treasurer.
Before the drive commenced one
man called on the chairman of the
committee and asked him if he could
contribute to the fund. He was in
formed that he could and handing
out his money he said, I'm a poor
man, but | want to give dollar in
memory OF this great man." 1t is such
gifts as these, and the spirit that
prompts them, that will make the
drive success. The committee viii
devote the week to canvassing st.
Johnsbury and any one that is miss
ed can send his money to the treas
urer, Arthur G. Sprague.
