NO GERMAN TROOPS

The reply read.

The reply read.
 Replying to your note of yester- day I have the honor to confirm to you the conditions to which the gov ernment of the French republic desires to subordinate it's eventual authoriza- tion to permit German troops to enter the Ruhr valley.
 such authorization which would constitute a 1erogation of ar ticleS 43 and A of the treaty of Yer sailles, could be justified only by inn perative and evident necessity. The commission charged with the control of the execution of the protocol of August 21, 1919. has expressed to me, as 1 informed him in our converse ton yesterday, its formal opinion, confirmed also from other sources, that military intervention in that region at present would be useless as well as dangerous"
 Thus circumstances do not permit me at this time to grant the request of your government. I must therefore reserve my definite reply to the proposition which you made me yes terday.'
 Premier Millerand by expressing the earnest desire of the French govern ment to do everything not incon- sistent with the defense of French in terests to facilitate the task of the German government.
 Berlin has evidently been under the impression that permission would he granted Germany to use troops for the purpose of restoring order in the Ruhr region under certain conditions and for a limited period. A Berlin dispatch on Tuesday stated that Premier Mueller had announced to the national assembly that France had abandoned her demand for Allied occupation of the neutral zone and had consented tog grant Germany from two to three weeks to employ a strong force in the disturbed Ruhr area At the same time Paris advices reporting the conversations between 1 Premier Millerand and Dr. von Mayer ] indicated there had been no positive ] decision in Paris as to the German request to employ troops and also l that the question of guarantees to be l offered by Germany for withdrawal of 1 the forces required further considera- l tiOn.

placing cement crossings at several
street intersections within the near
future and also placing several ce-
ment culverts where they are needed
over town. Inasmuch as school will
be held at the Lucero building on the

be built at once and not delayed un-

TWo coon GAMES

The people of Roy and surrounding
communities had the pleasure Of wit
Messing two crackerjack games Of
ball at the Roy ball park last Sunday
afternoon.
The first game was called at 2 o.
clock and was between Mills and
Solano teams. Each team had come
prepared to clean up on the other
and the game started off with
pitchers battle from the start. Nc
Daniels was in the box for Solano and
Smith for Mills, and either pitcher
allowed but few scattered hits, but
with few errors and the few hits
made, Solano dug up six scores and
Mills cleared the home plate 8 times.
The game was full of pep at all times
and kept the large crowd full of good
humor.
1t had been previously arranged
that Roy was to play the winning
team and when the first game was
over, the second game between Mills
and Roy started Immediately. Gates
was IN the box for Mills and Hester
for Roy. The game started off with
score for Mills, the first man up
making the score, and then-well
it's too bad but Mills never again
found the home plate, and satisfied
themselves with the one score. Roy
worked hard throughout the game
but the very best she could do was
to get two men home and thus the
score stood 2 to l in favor of Roy
when the smoke cleared away. It
was sure some game and highly ap-
preciated by the crowd which had
been watching the games for hours.
We intended to publish a box score
of the games but were unable to get
same before going to print.
The games were witnessed by quite
number of visitors from Mills, Ab-
bott, Solano and Mosquero.

J. w. SCOTT AND
JOHN FESSLER SELL OUT

P. H. Connolly of Dacoma, Okla
homa, purchased the j. W. Scott and
John Fessler homes last week. Mr..
Scott received $4,000 for his home
800 and Mr.. Fessler $4,000 for his
100 acres. Both of these places are
well improved and we believe Mr..
Connolly made good purchases on the
deals. Either place is but few miles
from Roy, have good wells and no
doubt Mr.. Connolly will double his
money within the next few years. We
understand Mr.. Connolly will make
his future home on the Mesa as soon
as he can close up his business in
Oklahoma. He has been looking over
the Mesa for weeks looking for choice
lands and we believe he has made an
excellent choice.
We have not yet learned what Mr.
Scott or Mr.. Fessler is going to do
but we hope they will decide to stay
on the mesa.
