MUSTANG JACKS
COWBOYS BATTLE
COLORADO ACCIES

FORT COLLINS, Colo, Feb. 2S.---
Following threatened invasion of
Colorado and Wyoming cowboys to
avenge a comrades mistreatment at
the hands of Colorado agricultural
college students here, this city was
quiet today after a night of HOSTILE
ties. The trouble started over
Mustang Jack" Vermilya, veteran
Montana cowpuncher with a six-inch
flowing mustache. Mustang Jack is
wintering in Fort Collins.
College students captured him one
night last week and cut off the ton
serial pride of Montana. Last night
Mustang Jack" without his mus
tache, but with a large following of
cowboys, gave battle to a score of
students. A broken jaw, fractured
collar bone and internal injuries
were among the casualties. Police
reserves and the fire department re-
sponded.

reinforcements coming from Wyom-
ing ranches and preparations are be-

and the Turks-unless the allies foot
the bill.
Despite declarations and reports tC
the contrary by the king himself, the
above deduction is the viewpoint OF

tent diplomats in Athns.

tine has a diplomatic cold" At the
some time the provincial propaganda
is working. Almost daily the gov
eminent papers print petitions from
the Macedonian, Thracian and Pelli-
poneSian peaSantry entreating the
king not to emperl his life by going
to Smyrna" The peasants Loyalty
point out that his majestys life be-
longs to Greece, not to himself.
From the royal palace emanates
the information that his majesty is
not at all displeased over the solicit
BUSINESS of his subjects. Smyrna at
best is a cold, barren, desolate place
in winter
The chief fear in royalist circles,
however, is that the Venizelists will
make capital out of any failure to
carry out prediction pledges. In
this event, t is planned to have the
king pay two or three day visit to
the front. in no case will he assume
personal command of the troops.
AS to Greece's abandoning the war
against Turkey, it is pointed out that
Greece today cannot even pay the in
terest on her former loans. For more
than the past quarter Of a century
Greece has continually borrowed
money. Virtually none of the prin-
cipal has been paid.
The Greek people are either very
wealthy or very poor. Thus far no
means of extorting taxes from the
paupered peasants has ben devised.
and no government has been strong
enough to extract any important
amount in internal loans from the
rich Greeks.
The Venezilos government secured
about million pounds by threats Of
"confiscation and mobilization of
wealth by the state" The final re-
suit was the transference of private
wealth to Paris and London by the
capitalists and the enforced migra-
ton of Venezilos and his cohorts to
Nice.
King Constantine and the present
government wishes to stay. Obvious
ly they will not attempt any drastic
measures. The only recourse is to
bolster up the national credit and get
what is available from England,
France or the United States.

President Harding can repair he

which includes all that was hoped
for from the parliament of the ma

Mayor John F. Hylan opened his
campaign for reelection last night with
four speeches in Queens. Brooklyn and
Manhattan. in which he assailed the

and the Rockefeller Foundation and

long as he was head of the city gov

no hand in the control of New York.
The Mayor was we'll received at each

Union Course Civic Association in
Queens, the Sutherland Club in Bath
Beach, the Cassidy Association in the
St Vincent de Paul Hall in Brooklyn.
and the New York Lodge, Loyal Or

third street.
The Mayor told his audiences that
throughout his administration he had
tried to serve the people and not the
traction or public utility interests. andhe
declared that he had succeeded. He told
also in considerable detail of his early
struggles in life and of his experiences
as an engine driver on the elevated in
the days when steam trains ran on the
structures. He then traced his life from
the time when he began to study law
up through his career as a lawyer and
a Judge and then through his admins
tration of the office of Mayor.
1T would have been easier to have
fooled the people and gone over to the
interests" said the Mayor. Then /

Mayor. I'VE want to give the children
