GALES SENDS
TROOPS AGAINST
POOR FARMERS
Agr0rians Move on Idle
U. S. Estates
tspseIaI . Do oaIIy worker,

MEXICO CITY, June II. - The
agrarIans have moved on to the large
estates thruout Mexico, most Of which
have been bought up by foreigners in
Guiding American capitalists, and al
lowed to remain idle. The a1rarians
were thus denied the right to make a
living, and have taken to the Idle
farms rather than starve.
Altho President Gales was forced
to sponsor agrarian reform" laws, he
has, since taking the presidency, kept
up a war on the militant agrarians.
Gales Good Servant.
Surprise was expressed in official
circles here over the sharpness Of the
Kellogg statement. Gales officials
point out that Gales has fought the
militant agrarians. Gales has ordered
the Mexican state governments to dis
arm all agrartans, but many of the
states have refused to do ibis, and
as they have autonomy undeF the fed
eral constitution OF Mexico, Gales
could not aid his American imperialist
masters to great extent.
Agrarians have seized number Of
small farms. Federal troops have been
dispatched by Gales to drive out the
agrarians, who have been fighting for
their existence
William Randolph Hearst, who
owns immense tracts Of land in Mexi-
co, was recently forced to give the
agrarians certain sections of his
lands in order to prevent them from
seizing his entire estates outright.
The papers here representing the
Mexican landowners are taking sides
with President Gales. declaring he
has been as good a servant Of Wall
Street imperialism as could be ex-
pected considering the growing mill
fancy Of the agrarians and trade
unionists.
The United States Chamber Of Com
merce here has taken similar view,
declaring N Is realized that Presi-
dent Gales .,ekkrgjninx every effort to
keep the agrarian elements in check"

GENERAL Chinese workers were
~ killed by British soldiers and yet
the gallant Britons were surprised be-
cause the whole of China went indig-
nant over the murder and expressed
that indignation in very un-Chinese
like manner. Strikes, demonstrations
and the cracking of rifles followed
the murder Of the Chinese strikers.
The Britons could not understand
how a population Of 400,000,000 Chin
ese could get so excited over the loss
of dozen Cinnamon. But when one
Englishman got killed, the British
government got very angry and de-
mands retribution. Let us hope she
will get all the retribution that's COM
ing to her.
THvERYTHING is running along
~ smoothly in Ireland under the
Free State regime, writes Dublin
correspondent for the Chicago Daily
News. This gentleman did not in
6orm us, however, that there are about
$4,000 unemployed in Ireland and
that on the western coast thousands
sof peasants are in want. That should
mot matter much. The workers and
peasants have always been hungry,
sho as Kipling sang once upon time,
s'They have fed you all for thou
sand years"
FTNHE Dublin correspondent Of the
4 Daily News does not tell us of
Irish labor. One would never think
from reading this fellows articles
that there was such thing as la
Dor movement in Ireland. Yet there
it is tho it must be admitted 1t is
in a delicate condition just now. But
the movement that James Connolly
founded will make progress and the
irish workers will take their place
with the workers of other lands in
the onward march towards economic
freedom.

A GREAT crisis confronts the entire

states. AS a result of the overdevel-
opment OF the industry and the speed
up system, hundreds of thousands Of
miners are constantly walking the

age OF this situation, the coal opera
tors are seizing upon every opportun-
ity to weaken and to demoralize the

They are looking forward with glee
TO the complete destruction OF our or

SALTERY PRESIDENT URGES THE NEED OF MAINTAINING EVER LASTING FISH INDUSTRY

Ways and means for an everlasting fish packing industry should be work ed out, says F. Caraco, president of the Cav Packing Company, at Uzinki, during his recent visit to Seward and at which time he was a guest at 8 Chamber of commerce luncheon. In certain districts the fish is being 'lit- erally murdered" he stated at the meeting, and it is the duty of this community especially to investigate these conditions with the view Of checking the terrible waste. Small fish are being harvested, which should be thrown back into the sea, he said, for, in another month they would be inches longer in size, sufficient for commercial handling.
 More damage can occur to the Ter ritory in the discriminating fishing of small area in a few hours, than were large area of timber swept away by fire" he said. His company seeks permanency in the industry Life insurance is good, MT. CaracO stated, and for that reason these com panies do huge business. The req son for this is that it is an everlast- ing business, for one enters into it with the view of providing for their immediate family after they have de parted. The fish question should be looked at in the same light, to take the proper care of the fish now so that in the years to come the industry will continue.
 The Cav Packing company operat- ed saltery at Red Fox Bay last sea son, moving over to Uzinki this sea son. According to a telegram which MT. Caraco received during his stay in Seward, his company has packed approximately 1000 barrels of fish thus far this year. This is gratifying, he said, and indicates a fairly success full season will be enjoyed this year He predicts a good year in general, in the fishing industry, for this re zion.
 His company is prepared to pack 10000 barrels this year. There are about 35 men employed at the Uzinkie plant. MT. Caraco read to the mem bers of the chamber several testimo- nials from Eastern people lauding his company for the splendid pack of last year and beseeching the company not to dispose of this seasons pack to one concern. MT. Caraco depaFted for Uzinki Tuesday, on the Ad. Evans. He expects to make another trip to Seward shortly.
