road -builder. In the carrying out of
highway improvement plans, he has the
good services of George w. Bates,
whom he had the judgment to select for
this work.
Although his resignation is dated to
take effect the first of January, Mr..
Wright might ask to be relieved earlier
should an opening which he cared to
take present itself and demand his serv-
ices before the end of the year. With
this in mind the selectmen and village
trustees have been canvassing the sit
uation little and discover themsc' yes
to be unanimously of the opinion that
the present town and village treasurer,
II. NJ Wilcomb, would be the best sue
cessOr to Mr.. Wright they could pos
sibly secure. The only objection to his
selection was the fear that he would
have to give up the two treasuryships,
in which he has been so valuable a pub
lie servant as to make it seem unwise
to remove him from that position to the
town managership. Legal advice was
sought and received to the effect that,
SO long as he signed no orders, there
could be no objection TO his holding the
Offices of both treasurer and manager,
and Mr.. Wilcomb has the matter under
consideration. His acceptance of the
offer of the selectmen and trustees hinges
naturally on his being able to dispose
of his mercantile business satisfactorily,

ing one of the principal drygoods. stores
in Springfield.

John b. Wright, a veteran of the
World war who came to Springfield
from Keene, n. H., the first of April,
1920, to establish the town-manager
system voted at the preceding March
meeting, has handed his resignation to
the boards of selectmen and village
trustees to take effect the first of the
coming January, and the same has been
accepted. 1t is no wonder that Mr..
Wright wishes to retire from a position
which has certainly been no bed of roses
but a continual struggle with an oppo-
sition about as firmly entrenched and as
hard to bend as the celebrated Hinden-
burg line, says the Springfield Reporter.
Through it all he has shown the stuff of
which soldiers, instead of dancing mas
tiers, are made and has fought so good
fight that he will leave the field, not
in defeat, but with colOrs flying
The system was of course bound to be
unpopular with those who naturally
cling to the old order of things and dis
like any change, even for the better, and
also with those who, accustomed to a
certain laxness, ineficiency and waste
, in town affairs, resented the introduce
tion of rigid business methods and the
strict accounting which made any care
less handling of public funds uncomfort-
ably embarrassing. The idea of a
stranger--one not to the Springfield
manner born. SO to speak-taking charge
of affairs and saying what should or
should not be done hurt local pride or
prejudice a trif1e, but at the same time
It made the town manager, as he should
be no respecter of persons and free TO
act unhindered by considerations arising
from friendly relations of long standing.
No one had any particular pull with him
nor had he any personal reason for ia
voring one more than another, or any
one to the disadvantage of town or viii
lage as a whole
Slowly. but surely. the system. fear
lessly and capably administered has won
its way with the majority of the people,
who began to see the light with greater
clearness when the balance sheet of the
| town for the year 1921 presented such
an astounding and uncommon state of
! finances as cash on hand in every de-
partment, in place of the usual deficit,
with a total of S43. 500 so. 1t was found
also that what had heretofore been the
mounting Indebtedness of the town had
actually been decreased S39. 256. L ,.
| Furthermore, it was at the suggestion
of Mr.. Wright and the town treasurer,
X. NJ. Wilcpmb. that the whole indebted
| ness of $4,000 was bonded through the
Old Colony Trust Co. of Boston at a
premium of $2.S99.20, plus the interest
on the bonds from the first of December
to the date of delivery, which. added to
the preium, made about $4,000, or half
enough to pay the first years retirement

| hibited, Mr.. Wright has proved himself
able TO do all the civil engineering the
town required and to be a frst-class

MEXICO PROTESTS
TO UNITED STATES
Wants Reported killing of Mexicans in
Herrin Massacre Investigated
u. :. Promises Action.

WASHINGTON, Aug. S.-The state
department has received a protest from
the Mexican government against the al
legged killing of two Mexican citizens
and the beating up Of others IN con
mectIon with the massacre at Herrln, Ill
The department has acknowledged re-
ceipt OF the representations and has
given its assurance that the whole CIR
cumstances of the case Will be thor
oughly investigated.
1t is understood that proper repre-
sensations have been made to the gov
ernOr of Illinois, and that when the
Illinois authorities have completed their
Investigations, further reply will be
made TO the Mexican government by the
department.
The representations from the Mexican
government are based upon the alleged
formal Acknowledgement of the COVER
nor of Illinois that two MeXicans had
been killed during the disorders at Her
rim and others beaten up, and upon depo-
sitions from the Resendiz brothers, Mex
lean subjects who have been for some
time undergoing treatment in ST. Mar
garet's hospital, Kansas City, for in
luries received at the hands of q mob.
One of the Resendiz brothers received
dangerous knife wounds about the head,
and both received bruises and lacera-
tions from stones and clubs. In their
dispositions, the brothers stated that
they set out from Chicago IN company
with two other men whose names they
don't know, in search of work They
were travelling in a way train which
proceeded very slowly, stopping at in
tervals for the passengers to get down
and eat at various stations.
About a day and half out of Chicago
the train made the customary stop for
food which the four MeNicans obtained
from the station restaurant. While
eating they were set upon by a mob
armed with clubs, knives and stones
and We're badly beaten, it is alleged,
but the Resendiz brothers managed to
make their escape and the other two
Nexicans were' left behind and not seen
afterward by. them.
The two wounded Mexieans, it is
claimed. were taken to Kansas City
and placed in a hospital where they re
NAMED for some weeks. Inquiry ad-
dressed to the railway upon which they
took passage was routed through Her
rim. ILL.,. and the time of about a dav
and a half specified by the two wounded
men. was thought to be about the time
necessary for them to have reached that
station. The two brothers indicated IN
their dispositions that they did not know
the name of the place at which they
were attacked.

COUNTY ENGINEER TO
 GIVE ESTIMATE ON
 CANANEA ROAD COST

DOUGLAS, April 5.-The first step in the movement to rebuild the Doug. las-Cananea road will be taken today when J P Ferguson, James Logic and Sid Smyth, county engineer, make a trip over the Agua Prieta- San Jose road to arrive at some esti- mate of the cost of repairing the 22- mile stretch. They will continue to cananea 10 discuss the project with residents of that city. who are re- ported to be highly in favor of the Douglas cutoff.
 Smyth will pay close attention to the geological formation and eleva- tion of the country through which the Agua Prieta-San Jose stretch passes and in this way will be able to make a fairly accurate estimate of the cost Of putting the road into first-class condition.
