New York.-7General Aurelio Blan.
|quet, Mexican minister of war during
the administration Of President Vic
toriano Huerta and described as sec
ond in command to General Felix
Diaz, recently reported as having UNI
dertaken revolutionary movement
against President Carranza, " has ar
rived safely in Mexico "after very
dangerous trip" according to an an
nouncement made here Thursday by
Robert Gayon, his secretary.
Banquet was accompanied by Gen
eral Juan Montana, chief Of staff +;
General Enrique Gonzales, chief of ar
tillery; Colonel Francisco Trasloshe-
ros, Judge advocate; Colonel Louis
Acosta, Captain Guillermo Rosas and
two other Mexican officers of the old
federal army, according to Gayon.
The purpose of General Blanquets
return, Mr.. Gayon said, was to reor-
ganize the Diaz forces, overthrow the
Carranza government and re-establish
the constitution or 1887, which, he
says, was repudiated by Carranza, and
revoke the alleged >confiscatory de-
crees Of the present government.
General Diaz, according to Gayon,
has 10000 troops scattered throughout
fifteen of the twenty-seven states of
Mexico. OF these, he said, 1900 were
in Vera Cruz, including 1900 men at
the headquarters in Tepatlaxco. Sew
eral officers in the old federal army
are reported to have crossed over to
the Diaz forces. General Candida
Aguilar, son-in-law of President Car
rama and former secretary of state
in his cabinet, is said to be leading
the government forces against Diaz in
the Vera Cruz district.

Continued from page one

his case into the forum Of the public
press, we meet him on that ground
and say that when he advises people
in his written articles to keep one
eye on their pocketbooks and vote
against the bonds, suspecting unfair
dealing, by the officers, 1t is not quite
in keeping with his own business
management Of private affairs to be
thinking of taking unfair advantage?
When the bonds are approved by
popular vote and are offered for sale
will it not be quite proper for repre-
sentatives of the bonding company to
look over the articles that have been
published and acted upon in this
county, to see whether the people
are going into the bonding obliga-
tions with the intention Of meeting
the payments as they become due?
When they find such aspersions upon
the integrity of the present officials
as are suggested by Reddick's arti-
Gle in the farmers paper, is it not
quite natural that they should be
cautious and not bid SO high on our
bonds If there is prospect of trick
cry and an effort to pay the bonds
as Mr.. Reddick paid his obligations
both here and in Kansas?
VIII Pingree Follow a Repudiator?
We regret the seeming necessity of
discussing. a mans record and his
private affairs in this manner, but
now that his activities bring the pub
Tic welfare and the public credit
into jeopardy, we ask the public and
especially the people of Pingree, to
consider carefully whose lead they
will follow, remembering that a
heavy vote along the lines Of Red
dicks advice is their privilege, and
thereafter the record will stand out
rather conspicuously as to who they
prefer for advisers.

MAKING CABBAGE BUILD ROAD

c. B. Lint of Blackfoot in speaking
of his fathers experience in farming
in the State of Michigan, says he
lives on farm Of $50 acres that he
has been trying for years to- buy and
finally secured it by leasing and ne.
gotiated for the purchase of it till
he finally got it at 1911 per acre
1t lies on the line of hard-surfaced
stone and gravel road twenty-seven
inches thick, braced with a curb al
the edges, The, land was worth
about $3.50 an acre before the road
was built, and dad had to raise the
ante about $4,000 to get it after
the bodybuilding was done.
But Dad Line has done some fig
uring. The soil is good, and last
year he raised sixty-three bushels OF
wheat to the acre, and fifty-seven
bushels Of barley per acre. He IL
able to market that wheat and barley
or the hogs he feeds on the place
any day in the year he wants to-
When he makes sale of some Of his
products at good price and agrees
upon delivery on certain day he
does not have to gamble on the
weather. He loads his wagon in the
shelter Of the barn, drives out along
the hard road, rain or shine, and
makes schedule time. He gets the
price expected for the products, and
it is easy and inexpensive to deliver
it. He says it is more fun than to
raise the same amount of stuff in
some state where it costs more to
lug it to market thru the mud, and
where he lcses the sale of some Of ii
entirely because of the road condi-
tons.
Dad Lint is preparing to put out
seventy-five acres l of cabbage this
year on land where ERASED wheat
last year. They have cabbage
planter that passes the plants along
down the draper into the little fur
row and two little jiggers crimp the
dirt up around them just as they
land in the furrow. The machine
goes along rather slowly like beet
cultivator making the first time over
the beet field, and raising cabbage
is not the job it used to be. Cab
bage doesn't sell for million dol
lars a head out on. the farm, but "a
million heads delivered in Detroit
bring enough money to make a man
forget all about the road bond tax.
There isn't such lot of difference
in the value of truck in the city and
out on, the farm, If only there is a
good road connecting them.

GOOD ROADS STORY

c. B. Lint of Blackfoot halls from
Michigan. He says they have dis
covered a blue gravel in Michigan
that is fine like peas and makes
good roads. They have been carry
ing on road-building program for
several years that runs like this: M
They establish the grade and when
it is in perfect form sixty feet wide
they operate the steam roller over it
till it is perfectly hard. Then they
lay gravel and roll lit hard, spread
crushed rock and roll it, spread
gravel and roll it hard, and it is a
roadbed. At the edges it Is finished
off with sloping curb SO it cannot
spread by ironing out. When the
road is finished it is thirty-tWo inches
deep at the center and twenty-seven
inches at the sides. 1t stays hard
and smooth and is expected to last
a very long time, for it is like strip
of rock laid across the country.
Men are allowed to take contract
of a mile apiece, and any man who
makes a botch of his mile is listed
to receive no more contracts.
Mr. Lint says the land in his part
of Michigan was worth about $3.50
an acre till the roads were built, and
then it went on up to about ESQ in
a short time. He knows of districts
down in Ohio where they use four
horses to haul@a light load thru mud,
and farmers who go up into Michi-
gan and joy-ride on those blue gravel
roads, make inquiries about the
price of land, buy il they can and
sell out at the lower price where
there are mud roads.
