Douglas Has Champion
Gree Riding" Tramp
Dog on Border, Claim

Douglas has the champion "free rid
ing" tramp dog of the border, accord
ing to U. S. immigration and customs
officers stationed at the Aqua Prieta
gateway. The dog is a short-haired,
brown animal of nondescript breed that
for several years has hung about the
customs house and rides the auto stages
and taxicabs from Douglas and Aqua
Prieta to Naco, Nacozari and other
border points.
The most remarkable feature about
the dogs actions is that he selects the
car he wishes to ride. Sam Westbrook,
immigration inspector, states that the
dog, will lie on the customs house
porch while half dozen cars pass,
then, when one that suits him, drives
up, will calmly walk out and jump
upon the running board. He is fa-
vorite with the stage drivers and taxi
men, who are quite willing to carry
him as a free passenger on their trips.
Because of his ride-seeking, he has ac-
cumulated the name of Tramp.

S.P. AUTHORIZED
TO CUT SWITCH
CHARGE LOCALLY

Local smelters viii; benefit most from
the new order issued. Monday by the
Arizona Corporation commission, au-
thorizing the Southern Pacific COM
pany to make reductions in switching
charges in the Bisbee and Douglas
yards, as a result of the consolidation
of the E. P. & S. w. and Arizona East
ern tariffs with the Southern Pacific
tariffs, according to information given
out from the office of w. w. Wind
ham, local agent of the Southern Pa
cific company, Tuesday.
The smelters will benefit because of
the fact that they have to switch many
cars of ore coming into Douglas by
way of the Nacozari railroad. Local
railway officials state that the reduc-
ton will not amount to much and that
hardly any local shippers except the
smelters will be affected by it. The
new order is expected to become effec-
tive within about 80 days.

BY HERBERT HOOVER

Nothing has occurred during the
first ten weeks of 1925 to change the
favorable outlook for American busi-
ness which appeared at the begin
ming of the year.
Everything indicates that if we can
avoid reckless optimism and specula-
tion the high level of prosperity will
continue.
During the last three years the
people of the United States have
produced and consumed more per
capita than ever before.
This has been due largely to
fundamental forces which seem
bound to continue-the cumulative
effect of education, scientific re-
search, experience in production and
marketing, the elimination of waste,
and the increase of capital.
Except in parts of the agricultural
industry, the textile industry, and
some lesser Industrial fields we have
the highest degree of prosperity in
our history.
1 believe it is based upon real
stability, and therefore it should
continue, and the delinquent trades
should tend to improve.

Avoid Reckless Speculation
And Keep Prosperity HooUer

EDITORS NOTE-Prosperity still
is the prevailing note in American
business, Notwithstanding recent fur
ries in Wall street Herbert Hoover,
secretary of commerce and the ma
tion's leading authority on business
conditions, himself declares this in
an exclusive statement for NEA
Service and the Douglas Dispatch.
Things may have looked a bit skittish
recently when the bottom fell out
of the bull movement in the stock
market and when there were two
days in succession when more than
3 100000 shares were sold on the
New York exchange.
Secretary Hoover the morning after
this jolt was quoted as saying, re-
assuringly, Conditions are fine. 1
see no reason why there should not
be a continuance of production on
the present basis"
Now the secretary EXPANDS this
opinion, gives the reasons for his
faith and delivers a short but care
fully considered message of confid-
ence which will be of satisfying in
terest to every American.

HOUSE APPROVES
IMPEACHMENT OF
JUDGE ENGLISH
tBy plslatca a. ?. wnlel

WASHINGTON, April 1.-Tmpeach-
parchment charges against Federal
Judge English of Illinois, were ap-
proved late today by the house. The
first of the five articles of impeach-
mittee as adopted after three days
of debate, charges "tyrannous and
oppressive conduct" toward jurors, at
torneys, state officials and newspa-
pers.
This charge alone, if it stands, is
sufficient to bring the judge to trial
before the senate sitting as an i'm
peachment court. Another vote must
be taken on the impeachment resolu-
tion as a whole, however, before the
case is passed along for senate hear
ing.
The first article of impeachment
260 to 101. Opponents of fmpeach-
ment made no effort to bring about
a vote on the other four articles A
roll call on the resolution, which was
approved by an overwhelming vote,
began Immediately.
The impeachment resolution was
adopted, 3O6 to 62.
Under the rules, the house must
advise the senate at l O'Clock to-
morrow of the action taken. The
summons for the judge, and later will
determine by what date he must file
an answer. 1t has not been deter
mined whether the senate has a
legal right to sit in special session

the judge. Congressional leaders
favor this step if it can be taken.
Unless Judge English resigns lie
must stand trial before the senate
on the five articles in the Indictment
returned against him by the house,
The vote came at the end of three
days debate and eliminated in a
near fist fight.
After proponents and opponents If
the resolution of impeachment had
talked themselves out, the demo-
cratic floor leader Rtpresen Eative
Garrett, of Tennessee, put forward
a motion to re-commit the resolu-
tion to the Judiciary committee, to
hear additional testimony.
Out of the usual hubbub and din
attending house roll calls, the an
nouncement came of the rejection OF
this motion, 80 to 275. Speaker Long
worth then announced that the vote
was on the impeachment resolution
iself. There were few scattered
"ayes" and as equally few scattered
mays"
1t was plain the house did not know
on what it was voting. When the
speaker announced the adoption OF
the resolution, half dozen members
were instantly on their feet with
cries of mo, no."

GEN. A. FLORES
OF MEXICO Is
LAID AT REST
(By Dispatch A. P. wirel

NOGALES, April 1.-The funeral of
General Angel Flores, statesman and
soldier, was to be held either this
afternoon or tomorrow morning at his
home in Culiacan, state of Sinaloa,
Mexico according to Dispatcher to
the Herald this afternoon. General
Flores died last night after three
weeks illness which had it's genesis
in an attack of influenza.
He was pronounced out of danger
on Monday, although no persons were
allowed to see him andN then suf-
fered sudden relapse yesterday.
For 16 years General Flores was
dynamic figure in the political and
military life of the west coast of
Mexico. Born at Mazatlan, 4S years
ago, of a father who was major domo
of stevedore squadron, Flores nec-
essarily was thrown with the rough
er element and his education was
matter of hard knocks and costly
experiences.
His brilliancy was given added
luster by the fact that he received
only a primary education, probably
never advancing beyond the third
grade as American schools are rated.
His was the heritage of sailor,
there on the sea coast, but he lived
to become, through sheer determine
ton military corps area commander
of the states of Sinaloa, Nayarit and
Sonora, goveronr of Sinaloa and fin
ally candidate for the presidency
of the Mexican republic.
When Flores was only 80 years old
he found himself in the vortex of
the Madero-Diaz revolution. His
great interest in things military made
him available Immediately for army
duty and he enlisted under the colors
Of Francisco Madero. Within month
he was made a lieutenant and in
eight months he received his general
ship.
Withal, General Flores was a work
er for peace. In 1921 he was elected
governor of his home state unani-
mously, following several years ac-
tivity in the political field. In Of
flee he exhibited an astounding ca
pacity for work and brought business
within the commonwealth to an Gn-
precedented level of prosperity. AS
governor he inaugurated service from
the Rosales canal and dam, begun
in 1921 and completed in 1923. This
project, which he fathered now is
irrigating thousands of acres that
heretofore had been waste land.

NEW YORK, April 1.-The alleged
"wfne bath" party which startled
Broadway a month ago resulted. to-
day in the arrest of Earl Carroll,
theatrical producer, on a federal in
dictment charging perjury. If he IS

cipal charges being that he falsely
