sion of HefferntGn; WIN

CALEXICO, June 25.-The saloons
OF International avenue, the MeXicali

Notice was received by the owners
of the saloons directly acrosSs .tlu.

| shey will of course promptly close
their doors on the date named.
1t is said that the Climax, Smith
and O. K. bars just across the inter
national border and the Monte Carlo
q I'd White House just across the rail.
road are the only ones affected.
Some weeks ago a notice was given
to close and then the time was ex-
tondded and it was announced that the
intention was to remove all saloons
from the main thoroughfarc and to
cat international avenue through to
the nest east and west avenue \ the
rear and make it a strictly CONNER
cal street.
It is understood that the saloons a.
other points will not be disturbed for
the present and that if they desire,
TIE five affected can secure other To-
cations. John Dunlevy of the Climax,
when seen, smiled as usual and said;
Wen close, OF course, and that's all
there is to it, Asked as to the future
plans he said they had none. 1t is
said thai a short time ago an offer of
$4,000 was made for the Climax,
but with the coming Of the closing
order the deal was declared off.
Ed Smith said that lie Yves going
away fer few months and that he
expected to return aad go into some
other business in the ALLEY. He eX-
pressed himself as not caring very
much because Gf the unstable Condi-
ton of affairs and would therefore
aot seek another location.
it is said that the idea underlying
the closing order is to make a COM
marcial street OF International avenue
aaa te encourage the opening of stores
thereon. 1t is also said that the final
plans contemplate a municipal theater
library and other IMPROVEMENTS that
will make the street a busy and pros
Berous place with the saloons all
hanished to less conspicuous points.
Those in a position to know say that
The present move is only preliminary
to the carrying out of the plan an
nounle ed some time ago of general
cleanup all along the line and OF 4
desire on the part of Governor Cantu
TO carry out a long cherished plan OF
cutting cut all vice resorts and SUP
porting the government by customs
and duties and other taxation.
The saloons bring in big revenue.
Each enc is reported to be paying rs
license fee close to $4,000 year
in addition 10 other taxes.
On the other hand, 4 man well
posted on Mexican affairs said: The
saloons may close all right, but ,hey
will be open again. The future may
bring number Of changes not now
anticipated and l will not be surprised
to see things the same as at present
after a few months"

BRYAN AND WILSON
70 HAVE TRYOUT

The Virginia plank endorses the
treaty CT Versailles and the league CT
nations draft and calls for its ratifca-
ton without mutilation. The other
view comedies the possibility of reser-
vations to the league draft.
On this question there will be
try-out between the Bryan and the
Wilson control in the convention, and
the result again will be significant as
to what kind OF a candidate will lie
chosen to stand on the platform.
If, for instance, Bryan should him
self come into the running as can
didate (and this is not impossible) the
first thing he would require would be
a platform with these two planks in
It conforming to his ideas
On the other hand, the adoption of
a moist plank and Wilson plank
would almost ALLEVIATE Bryan and his
