TAX CONFERENCE

From County Assessor Victor J.
Wager, whose return from the con-
ference of tax commissioners and
county assessors at Yuma this week
is noted in another column, "The
Oasis" learns that new rule was
adopted for assessment of automo-
biles, and issue of licenses.
Under the rule when an automobile
owner applies for a license he must
produce a clearance from the county
assessor, or no license is given. If
the tax is paid, or if it is on the as
sessment roll with real estate owned
by the applicant, the assessor gives a
clearance So, if an owner of an au-
tomobile wants license he must pay
the tax, or be fortified with real
estate assessed along with the ma
chine on the tax roll.
The conference fixed valuations of
cattle for assessment at about the
same figure as last year.

EAGLE PASS, Texas, December IL,
Villa troops are still holding Mus
quiz, after the raid of las Tuesday.
according to reports reaching here.
Mexican official dispatches state
that General Murgia, the Carrancis-
ia commander in the north, had reach
cd Barreteral with nine trainloads of
trOps. Fighting is reported in three
different places, with 1000 Villa
troops engaged; but this report is de-
MED from Carrancista sources.
One rumor declared that Villistas
had blown up one troop train laden
with federal trOOns and equipment, ad
ding that the Villistas are headed for
Piedras Negras Gust across the Rio
Grande from Eagle Pass), and are
within forty miles of the town.
Five wealthy ranchmen and mer-
. chants of Musquiz are reported cap
tured by Villistas, and are said to be
held for ransOms of $4,000 each
among them being Francis Pardo,
Spaniard, and Francisco Miranda,
ranchman.
Communication with Musquiz and
Piedras Negras has not been restor-
ed as yet; and train service on thee
Mexican International Railway, from
Piedras Negras south has not been
resumed. Communications between
Sabinas and SaltillO are believed in
tact, but train operation is held up as
a precautionary easure, as Musquiz
is within striking distance of the rail-
way beyond Sabinas.

LONDON, December 12,-Ameri-
can Ambassador Davis was summon
ed today to the government offices in
Downing street for conference with
Premiers Lloyd-George and Clemen-
ceau. Mr.. Davis cancelled several
important engagements to attend.
The summons, is understood, was
primarily or the purpose of infOrm-
ing the United States regarding the
decisions of the present series of con-
ferences involving Great Britain,
France and Italy, thereby avoiding
offence to the American Government.
The conferences realize that America
is entitled to the fullest confidence.
Opposition to the decisions of the
conference. from many quarters in
certain events, as M. Clemenceau, the
French premier, is believed to be
working for French plan of the old
system of ALLIANCES and balances of
power, which the French seem to be-
lieve necessary for their protection.
This proposition meets with very lit
tie favor in British labor circles.

CATTLEMAN FLIES
TO ATTEND SALE
after MISSING 4
RAIL CONNECTION
Omitted Press Service)

OKLAHOMA CITY, Dec, 12-The
airplane threatens to take the place
of the automobile in the Southwest.
During the past six months rapid
strides have been made in their use
for business purposes. Men wi
have used them assert "they can't be
beat"
One enterprising company manu-
featuring air machines has already
established salesrooms-or rather
fields-near here and are reported to
be doing a big business.
The airplane has been brought for
chilly to the attention of the oil and
cattle men of this state during the
past few months on two occaslc.
when they were used in emergencies
and proved reliable.
Col. H. L. Burgess, prominent cat
tleman of Chesla, Okla, was slated
to conduct a shorthorn sale in Krem-
lin, but missed train connections at
Ell Reno. Roads in this section of
the country are notoriously bad and
rain on this occasion had made them
worst. The colonel, however, tele-
phoned to Oklahoma City xor an ar
plane, which was soon on it's way to
Ell Reno.
The trip was made without mishap
and cattlemen soon became interest
ed in the aerial mode of travelling.
Oil men have stated their intention
of using airplanes for scouting pur-
poses and for emergencies which fire.
quently occur in the oil game, requir-
ing short but speedy moves.

| | N { S B AID
Jitneys, Motor Trucks, And
Nickel Fares All Combine
To Cut Into Revenues And
I Derange Finances

SAN FRANCISCO, December 12-
Jitneys, motor trucks, nickel fares and
soaring prices. All these threaten
to bring about the financial collapse
of electric railways in California.
In its annual report, submitted to
Governor Stephens, the State Rail-
way commission tells the story:
"The electric railways have met In
the recent past a most formidable
and determined competitor-the auto
mobile. Both the private automobile
and the jitney have made enormous
inroads on the passenger traffic that
was formerly dependent upon electric
railways.
"The automobile truck is an even
more serious competitor in the freight
traffic field, for the electric inter
urban railways almost wrnout ex-
ception are depending for thei,'
freight revenue on short-haul busi-
mes.
"And yet it is clear that both the
passenger automobile and the freight
auto truck as competitors of the
steam and electric railways are even
now only in the first stages of their
development.
Electric railway utilities find it
more difficult to obtain necessary
new capital and for many companies
the only escape from financial col
lapse is through drastic reorganiza-
tion.
The high cost of living has borne
heavier on the electric railway busi-
ness than any other industry for the
reason that for street railways the
standard fare has been a nickel. Not
only have franchise provisions fixed
on this unit, but the five cent fare
has become an institution for Ameri-
can cities.
