u. S. INTERESTED IN
OBREG0N'S ATTITUDE

tsy MORNING JOURNAL srIerAL LEASED wiRE1
Washington, Sept, Estate de-
partment official are interested in
learning the attitude of President
elect Obregon- of Mexica towards
foreigners, especially Americans,
after he takes office. A careful
study of his public speeches, II was
said had Indicated that American
lives ana property would be safe
guarded and respected.
Fear of reaction in Mexico
against more friendly policy to-
ward the United states is regarded
by state department officials as
wholly unfounded. All Americans
who have dealt with Mexicans as
workrnen have reported. it was
said, that there is no real anti
American sentiment among the
Mexican people. The only recent

didates for office. Unfortunately
for them, however, they are lined
up in support of hopeless and I'M
just cause, in principle bound body
and soul to the extravagant poll
cies of Wilson and wisconsin and
his attempt to Europeanlze America.
However, 1t behooyes us, as has a.
ways been the rule in republican
deliberations, to see to 1t that the
very highest type of citizenship be
selected for the various offices of
the state. We should adopt pri-
mary system for the nomination of
county and district officers. The
tax laws need amending. The
theory of taxation is to pro rate
equitably the burden of government
proportionate to the ability TO pay.
Thus every citizen, be he rich or
poor, is a shareholder in his gov
eminent, a shareholder on an equal
basis proportionate to his means,
No person or corporation should
be overtaxed, and none should es-
cape or be untaxed. Taxation has
always been a difficult problem.
During the last legislature provi-
sion was made for the appointment
of a tax commission for the pur-
pose of investigating all Of the con-
ditions with reference to taxation
in New Mexico, and report to the
succeeding legislature their find
ings and recommendations with
reference to notifications, amend
ments or sHbstitutions. This COM
mission was appointed, by the gov
ernor, and is composed Of men Of
both parties OF great ability and
marked integrity. 1t was a repub-
lican plan to right any wrongs or
errors which might exist. These
reports and findings should. and
] have no doubt will, be given the
most careful consideration by the
next republican legislature of the
state.
A fair, square deal to every ele-
ment, to every person, to every
corporation, rich or poor, is the
policy of the republican party, and
every pledge in this direction or
any pledge which you may see fit
to incorporate In your platform
will, az 1t always has been, be con-
sidered contract with the people
Of New Mexicos We should do our

OUR PLATFORM SUGGESTIONS

The Journal suggests for public discussion, the -four
planks following for adoption part of the republican
platform the approaching state convention There are
many other proper subjects for inclusion. We confne
ourselves to these as fundamental.
If there is objection to the subject matter or the
phraseology, we invite criticism.
This is given to crystalline sentiment. We can sup
port forwardlooking candidate who is earnestly com
mtted to such policy Perhaps notifications be
suggested which accept.
IL YOU approve such panks it will be well to let the
delegates to- the convention from your county know Of
your attitude.
We want the sentiment of the rank and file of the
party instead of small committee, to pass these
vital provisions.

hand, we assure all those wishing
to invest in our state, complete
protection against cOnfiscatory taxa

as to what is equitable must rest

THE PUBLIC LANDS AND FUNDS
The public lands and the pro-

must be administered with sacred
fidelity. That the public may be
assured of the safety of these lands

policies of the land office and the
board investing the funds, we
pledge ourselves to a complete In

san commission with ample time
given them to look into every
phase of the management. We
pledge full publicity to this report
We will submit to the people a
constitutional amendment providing
for q bipartisan board to manage
these lands and funds, that our
citizens may express their wish
with regard to such method Of
handling them, This does not,
however, commit any republican tc
vote for such an amendment as q

In the meantime we pledge euch

A PRIMARY LAW.

A PRIMARY LAW.
The republican party stands for
progress. We, accordingly pledge
ourselves to the enactment OF a pri-
mary election law for the nominal
ton of county and legislative candi-
dates and the selection OF delegates
to district and state conventions.
Such ballot shall be secret and
protected against fraud as is the
present Australian system OF voting
at elections. Nominations shall be
by petition.
We are not unsympathetic with
the extension of such primary to
state and federal offices whenever
experience shows II to be desirable.
A BUDGET SYSTEM.
We favor o complete budget
system for the state that there may
be strict business administration of
the states affairs. We ask the
special revenue commission to sug-
a gest to the people some kind OF a
Z continuous budget board which
shall make written recommended

has led to over twenty different
spellings found on early maps,
ranging from Miscous to the
ordinary French form 'Ouiscon-
sin. The present spelling Of
Wisconsin was only settled bv
formal vote OF the constitutional
fathers in the convention in 1910.
One OF the ablest men in that con
veation was Gov. James ID. Doty,
who for wears had labored to force
the spelling Wisconsin on the
commonwealth. Bg some chance
{ g enabling act Of Congress for the
new state had employed the spell
ing Wisconsin. Doty as chair
man of the committee on state name
and boundaries, reported in favor
OF retaining this spelling but the
convention repudiated this, voting
to strike out the letter a in Wis
consan wherever it occurs and in
sert the letter T.. Thus the pre-
sent spelling of Wisconsin was fix

STATE TREASURER JOHNSON
WRITES ABOUT THRIFT
Tells How Early Settlers Praeticed
Thrift. Gives His Opinion OfHigh
Cost of Living.
State Treasury Department
of Wisconsin
Madison, Wis. Jan. 10, l9.

MdulSOH, " -. JAN ~ i1@p
This is Thrift Week, However,
it may not be an easy matter to dis
tingllish between thrift, hording
and profiteering.
Forty years ago we early settlers
Ill Oconto County would start with
our OK teams for Shawano, a dis
tance of twenty. eight miles, for the
purpose of laying in our winter
supplies. 1t used to take us four
days TO make the trip, but as there
were no hotel bills our expenses
were light. Upon arriving at Shaw
ano we would each buy a barrel of
sugar, from three to FIVE barrels of
flour, and groceries enough to last
all winter. In fact we would buy
all that we could pay for and don
forget this last sentence. We used
to call this thrift. Nowadays if
man should come home with load
of supplies of that kind he would
be considered a horder. We used
to point with pride to successful
business man. Today he is classi-
fled as a prohteer.
Last fall after returning from a
trip in the northern part of the
state | made the remark TO a news.
paper man that potatoes would be
from s. so to $500 per bushel this
winter. Although | have 10 news
bureau he seems to have scattered
this information pretty we'll all over
the state as l have received letters
from many different parties saying,
AT your suggestion we have laid
in our supply of potatoes for the
winter. | notice by the Milwau-
kee Sentinel today that potatoes
are quoted at S4 Is per hundred,
and that our marketing commits
sioner and the commissioner of the
high cost of living are going to in
vestigate the high cost of potatoes.
Does the marketing commission
realize that by establishing four
grades of potatoes that thousands
of bushels of small potatoes were
dumped into the pig pen last fall
that might have been used for food.
Also, potatoes must be sacked now
in order to market them and sacks
cost SOC for every hundred pounds
of potatoes, besides the extra work
i'll putting them up. Then again
at this time of the year, with the
thermometer ranging all the way
from Is to 20 degrees below zero,
dealers are not going to ship pota-
toes, especially with the slow trans
pottation that we now have, and
unthe chances of having the pota-
toes frozen in the car and becoming
a total loss.
We were promised some time
ago that investigators would bring
the cost of sugar down to eleven
cents but it went up to twenty-one.
When we talk about thrift, half
of our people will soon be engaged
in inspecting the other half, where
as if these investigators would go to
work to produce something instead
of consuming, it would have a
tendency to bring down the high
cost of living. if such a thing is
necessary. Supply and demand is
the only regulation that l know Of
There may be another way but so
farsI have failed to see it.

STATE BOUNDARY LINE
TO BE DETERMINED
Governor Announces Commission to
Probe the Wisconsin Michigan
State Line Question.


consisting of S G.. Nelson of Iron
wood, NJ. II. Moriarty of Crystal
Falls, and A. l.. Sawyer of Menomi-
nee, was appointed this week by
! Governor A. T.. Sleeper to settle
the disputed boundary line between
Iron and Gogebic counties, of Wis
consin and Michigan, respectively
Disputed territory near the mouth
Of the Menominee river, claimed by
both Menomnee and Marinette,
will also receive attention from the
commission. Five thousand dollars
was appropriated at the recent ses-
sion of the legislature for the work
of the commission, but the memb-
ers were appointed to serve on the
commission without pay.
The money will be used TO carry
+ the case to the courts of the state
or to the United States supreme
court, should it be found necessary
to do so, before final adjustment is
made. The bill authorizing the
commission was introduced in the
state legislature by John Holland
of Bessemer, state representative
from Gogebic county.
/ QUESTION ONE OF LONG STANDING.
The boundary question has been
one of much discussion in the state
of Michigan for many years and
during recent years has figured
prominently i'll court trials in this
county and in the federal courts,
particularly during the period when
Michigan was dry state by con.
stitutional amendment and Wiscon-
sin remained i'll the wet" column.
The Wisconsin and Michigan con-
stitutions in their description of the
boundaries of the Commonwealths
differ materially. The state of
Michigan defines the Wisconsin
Michigan boundary as follows:
"thence in a direct line through
Lake Superior to the Mouth of the
Montreal river; thence through the
middle of the main channel of the
westerly branch of the Montreal
river to Island Lake, the head wat.
ers thereof; thence in a direct line
to the center of the channel between
Middle and South islands i'll the
Lake of the Desert" The Wis
cousin constitution defines the main
branch of the Montreal as the bra.
nch of that river which at the pre-
sent time runs from Pine Lake to
to Lake Superior
Early engineers and cartograph-
ers indicate on their maps as the
main branch the westerly channel
of the Montreal river, which is
known locally as the Gle River.
Should the commission succeed
in its endeavor to show that the
Gle river is the main branch Of the
river, approximately 400 square
miles of territory will be added to
the state Of Michigan and to Goge-
bic county, this territory all being
lost to Iron and Villas counties
Wisconsin Hurley and its evirons
will be added in the bargain and
will become a part of Michigan, as
will also Vinegar and a number of
smaller settlements, to which most
Michigan Legislators contend they
rightfully belong
! The proceeding of the commits
sion will be watched with interest
by people in this city, but it is be-
ieved that long legal fight will
be necessary before the question is
