spheres for her revolutionary ac-
tivities, shot and killed under dra-
matte circumstances a Paris mil
lionaire named Charles Muller,

Durnovo, then Russian minister of
the interior, who was alleged to
have sent thousands of Russian
political prisoners to death in ST.
IBERIA.
M. Muller was lunching alone at
hotel in Interlaken when Prin-
cess I.eontieff, who was only 20,
approached his table and fired
several shots. Her innocent victim
fell lifelcss to the floor, the prin-
cess oXclaiming, THANK God, I've
rid Russia Of the greatest murder
unaware that the real object of
her vengeance, NJ. Durnovo, had
left for Berlin two days before.
She was sentenced to four
years penal servitude and 20
years expulsion from Switzerland
After two years in prison the un-
fortunate woman became insane

CASES AGAINST
DRY LEAGUE ARE
COMPLETE. SAYS
Tinkham Claims Department
of Justice Has Enough
Evidence to IndiCt Anti
Saloon Organization.

Washington. April l6,-Repre-
sentative Tinkham, republican or
Massachusetts, said in a statement
today that charges recently MADE
by him in the house that the Anti
saloon League of America had
failed to comply with the corrupt
practices act were now before the
department of justice ana Will pc
acted upon in due season. Ihe
cases against the league, he added,
ARE complete with the evidence
necessary for indictment and con-
viction when presented to a grand
Jury and federal criminal court.
Reiterating his charge that the
league had failed to report an
contributions in the statement
filed under protest" by Wayne =
Wheeler in 1910, Mr.. Tinkham f
statement said:
"The Anti-Saloon League OF
America has not denied one of the
charges, but last Friday issued Il
characteristic propaganda state
ment in relation to prohibition
and the Anti-Saloon leagues well
known formula of anarchy and
notification as if it alone were
interested in protecting the United
States from anarchy and nullilica-
ton. In this propaganda state
ment 1t had the audacity to appeal
for law enforcement when the
Anti Saloon league itself was
charged with serious crimes.
''The Anti-Saloon league con-
trolls the congress Of the United
States, has dictated executive APP
polntments and, by recent discios-
ures here in Washington, is shown
TO have attempted to dictate judi
cial appointments and the admin
istration of justice.

jury of artists voted Troyon
decoration, official art circles were
aghast. The minister of fine ants
shook his head resignedly when he
saw Troyon's name on the list Of
artists who were to receive decOra-
tons.
1t appears decidedly that I
know nothing about painting" he
lamented as he unwillingly put his
signature to the order.
Corot Regarded as Radical.
1t seems strange that these nlne-
tenth century artists were regard
ed as radicals who dared to break
away from tradition and paint ma
ture as she seemed to them rather
than as she had always been
painted.
one Of their worst crimes was
straightforward manner the for
ests, peasants, and farm scenes Of
France when every painter was
supposed to be stepped in the clas-
sic atmosphere OF Greece and
Italy.
The amazement of the French
public at the French landscapes
was something like that of our own
modern public when it discovered
recently that novels descriptive of
mid-western life might be taken
seriously, and that all American
literature need not bear New
York stamp. People nowadays are
less frightened by now ideas and
revolta than they were in the
France Of the nineteenth century.
Artists and public alike held out
strongly against Miilet with his
toll worn peasants, Troyon with his
endless studies of cattle, and Corot
| with his French forests which bore
little resemblance to any reasona-
BILE italian landscape.
The source of inspiration for
these artists, and a number of 9TH
ers who were non-conformists like
them. was the little French viii
lage of Barbizon where they work.
ed at their painting. From their
association with this village a
group Of painters came to be
known as the Barbizon school, and
/ also as the men of thirty" because
/ IT. was about 1890 that the Barbi-
zon school came into prominence.
In 1926 two painters got lost in
the forest of Fontainebleu, and
wandered to the village Of Barbi-
Zon, where they spent the night
with a peasant. The next morning
they were so enraptured over the
peaceful beauty OF the remote
hamlet and the entrance to the
forest nearby that they immedi-
ately bargained with the peasant
for board and lodging and settled
down to paint.
The fame of Barbizon as an ideal
artists retreat spread, and in a
few seasons the peasant host had
to convert a barn into an inn to
house his eager guests. In the
rush season for outdoor sketching,
artists even slept on largo table
for the privilege of getting up at
five o'clock or earlier and rush
ing out to study the sunrise in the
forest. Corot tells wildly Of GO
ing out at three o'clock and watch
ing the daybreak with its success
sion of wonders
Mr.. Lucas, who resided in Paris
for more than fifty years, was es-
pecially interested in this Barbizon
school and with great foresight, he
collected both pictures and paIcttes
of the artists, to the lasting bene-
fit of America.

proclamation designating saturday,

"It is customary to usher in the
tree and shrub planting season on
Arbor day in the spring of the year.
There are very few Improvements
of greater practical and artistic
value combined than the growing,
cultivation and preservation OF

"In New Mexico especially the
tree is of great value. The forests
not only conserve the water supply,
but furnish fuel and material for
the lumber industry, and the con-
servation policy of the govern
ment strives to protect this great
resource. Trees in our cities am
about our homes. schools. public
buildings and along highways, nor
only add to our comfort but beau
tify the landscape and make such
municipalities inviting and attrac-
tive to investors.
Now therefore, 7, Merritt G,
Mechem, governor of the state OF
New Mexico. by virtue of the au-
thority in me vested. do hereby
designate Saturday. April %, 1922,
as Arbor day in the state of New

II, GENERAL GRANTS
CENTENARY, IS URGED

Santa Fe, April 1G.-April 81 be-
ing the centenary of the birth of
Gen. U. S. Grant, Gov. M. c. Mech
en- urges that the occasion be cele-
brated in fitting manner. His
proclamation follows:
The centenary of the birth of
Gen. Ulysses S. Grant occurs on
April 81, 1922. The Grand Army
of the Republic makes the timely
and proper request that each state
in the union prepare to reverently
observe the day. stating that 1t is
probably the last time that the
Grand Army of the Republic, as an
organization, will ask the aid of the
people and constituted authorities
in doing honor to the memory of
the distinguished leader of the
great army of the union which
saved the country from wreck and
ruin and who, by so doing, made it
possible through a united country
in 1917-191S to save the civilization
of the world; that the ranks of the
Grand Army are now very thin but
that their hearts are yet warm with
zeal for their country and their
faith is undimmed.
This simple and beautiful asser-
ton on the part Of those who faced
and conquered the perils that
threatened our country two genera
lions ago should arouse In every
citizen a spirit OF gratitude and a
warm desire to pay due tribute To
the great American general who
led the Grand Army to victory and
whose dying prayer was that peace
might prevail in the land he loved

CHALLE NG|NC Of
ERIN ELECTIONS
DE VALERA PLAN
viii AIIege That Register of.
Voters Is Defective; In
cIudeS Names That Ought
to Be Removed.
(By The Associated PrcssJ

Dublin, April 16.-Eamon de Va
lera will challenge the validity of
the Forthcoming Irish elections on
the ground that the register of
voters is defective. Both at the
dali sessions and in correspondence
with President Griffith he has con-
tended that the register is stale. in
GLIDING many names that ought to
be removed and emitting many
names that ought to be included.
His correspondence has demand
ed the immediate preparation of an
up-to- date register but the demand
was resisted on the ground that it
would be certain to delay the cleo
lions which the Free Staters desire
to hold at the earliest possible date.
It is admitted that owing to the
conditions of conflict that prevailed
in ireland last year the ordinary
work of revising the register was
not uniformly performed.
According to Mr.. de Valera the
errors affect tens of thousands OF
names. In the few districts where
revision was carefully done the
changes made amount roughly to
about 16 per cent.
The deficiency concerns two
classes in whom Mr.. de Valera Is
specially interested. These are the
young men who have come of age
in the qualifying period and who
are not under the existing register,
entitled to vote. and women under
the age Of 80, who reached that
age during the qualifying period
but are not yet on the register. The
republicans attach importance to
the women's vote, which they be-
lieve to be favorable to them.
The reply of President Griffith,
while conceding that the register is
not ideal, argues that it Is quite as
accurate as the register on which
elections were carried out last
year, and he charges that Mr.. de
Valera's insistence on a new reg
lister might delay the elections for
twelve months.
II Mr. ie Valera rejoins that tha
new register is not so accurate as
the old one, for the latter was at
least uniform and the one now in
force was corrected for some dis
tricts but not for others. He dis
putes the right of the Free Staters
to go to the country on it and Is
said to be making plans TO contest
the elections If the prevailing gov
eminent persists in defying him.
