WASHINGTON. Oct. 18. Diplomatic
' relations between the United States and
Mexico will be formally renewed to
morrow after a lapse of two years and
eight months by the formal recognition
of Venustlano Carranza as tbe chief
executive of the de facto government
of Mexico.
Secretary Lansing and the Ambassa
dors from Brazil, Chile and Argentina,
and tbe Ministers from Bolivia, Dru
guay and Guatemala, constituting the
Pan-American conference on Mexican
affairs, met today and decided upon the
form in which their respective govern
ments woulo. present recognition, and
fixed tomorrow ss the time for the act.
Faratal AHmueanl Made.
Afterward Secretary Lansing made
this announcement:
"The conferees, under instruction
from their respective governments, will
recognize tomorrow tho de facto gov
ernment of Mexico of which General
Carranza is the chief executive."
Each government will address to Gen
eral Carranza a letter or note of recog
nition to be delivered to Eliseo Ar-
redondo, personal representative of
General Carranza here. Mr. Ar
redondo, who is a first cousin of Mr.
Carranza, will leave here "W ednesday or
Thursday to convey in person the let
ters of recognition from the several
governments.
RecwtrafttoM Givea BtronsMt.
With the decision on the form of
recognition, the Fan-American confer
ence on Mexican affairs adjourned.
Five meetings in all have been held,
the first two being devoted to fram
ing an appeal to the contending Mexi
can factions to reach an agreement on
their internal affairs. In view of the
failure of the important elements to
agree, the conference decided that rec
ognition should be accorded to the
strongest faction.
Since recognition was agreed on a
week: ago, official reports show that a
material change for the better has
taken place in Mexico; that railroads
and telegraph lines are being rapidly
repaired and that conditions are fast
becoming normal in many places. Thou
sands of troops hitherto under General
Villa have taken advantage of the offer
of amnesty and laid down their arms,
and Secretary Lansing and tha Pan
American diplomats feel that a fair
start has been made toward restoration
of peace and reconstruction, the suc
cess of which depends now upon the
administrative ability of Carranza and
his advisers.
Many Promises Made.
Assurances have been given by Car
ranza that foreigners will be protected
in their lives and property, that claims
will be paid, that amnesty will be given
to political enemies who swear al
legiance to the new government, and
that there will be no persecutions of
the clergy. The American Government
is hopeful that these promises will be
fulfilled.
The decision to refer to General Car.
ranza as "the chief executive of the
de facto government of Mexico" was
reached after some discussion as to the
titles. Although "provisional presi
dent" is a general term applied to the
executive ot a republic, fear was ex
pressed in some quarters that since
it had not been used by General Car
ranza himself, its use by foreign gov
ernments might create the impression
in Mexico that he was being chosen to
a new office by foreign governments.
The words "chief executive" were
used also to avoid any impression that
a constitutional government was be
ing recognized, for. while there is no
difference in the benefits of recogni
tion to a de facto or de Jure govern
ment, the constitutional order in Mex
ico will not be proclaimed until a
constitutional assembly is called some
weeks hence. This assembly wll for
mally designate General Carranza as
"provisional president," or president aa
Interim, and arrange for the constitu
tional elections of president and vice
president. Embargo on Arms to Follow.
Tomorrow's action will mean the im
mediate proclamation of an embargo
on arms In connection with the joint
resolution passed by Congress in March'
112. All consular representatives of
the Carranza government will be rec
ognized in their official capacity as
soon as they present credentials and
apply for exequateurs. American Con
suls in Mexico, who have not possessed
exequateurs will apply, for them now,
and. it is understood Incidentally that
the American Consular .Service in Mex
ico generally will be recognized.
European governments will be noti
fied by Secretary Lansing of the Wash
ington Government's action in extend
ing recognition, and. although no sug
gestion will be made to them, it is un
derstood most of them will follow the
lead of the United States.
An American Ambassador to Mexico
has not yet been selected, but it is un
derstood one of the diplomatic repre
sentatives of the United States already
in one of the Latin-American countries
probably will be chosen.

tain rights," said Mr. Daly.
"Can't we combine the two Jobs into
one?" suggested Mr. Bigelow.
Commissioner Daly insisted that
both men are needed, but their final
allowance was held in JrUestion by the
Council.
"And here comes the most important
item of all," said Mayor Albee, as he
glanced down the page and found the
salary ot a cook cut from 165 to $6cf a
month.

Next in order was a list of general
foremen.
"Where are the privates?" asked Mr.
Baker. "The German army hasn't any
thing on Daly from the looks of things."
At this point the tangle of affairs
regarding salaries was encountered. It
bud looked as though up to this time
that many men were being cut out. But
they were all found In a list of new
places which followed. It was at this
point that the Council balked and sent
the budget back for revteien.
In the budget of expenditures for
supplies Mr. Daly asked that no ma
terial cuts be made. His advice was
taken. The total cut out was $1310.
Commissioner Baker made a motion
to cut the proposed item of "f3tort for
new meters" to half. Mr. Dalv ob
jected, saying that the $3000 would only
buy 500 meters and that number is
needed. Mr. Bakers motion failed.
Commissioners Baker and Dieck
questioned the large number of items
that appeared in the budget under the
caption "Miscellaneous." The total
under this caption was IS8.517. It all
remained intact.
Extensions te Cost S111.SOO.
Items were allowed in the budget ag
gregating $111,500 for construction and
extension. Of this amount $110,000 was
for the proposed new concrete dam at
the Bull Rnu headworfcs and $1500 for
a new house for the pipeline tenders
stationed on Sandy River.
The Council finished yesterday with
the garbage incineration bureau. The
total cuts in this amounted to 112. Of
this $35 was for vacation help. $5 for
horse feed and $75 for materials.
The Council will resume its opera
tions at 8:S0 o'clock this morning, at
which time the water bureau budget
will be finished and the Department of
Public Works, under Commissioner
Dieck. will be started.
"Meet at 8:30 tomorrow and get a
good fresh start on my budget while
you are feeling fine," said Commis
sioner Dieck.
"We ought to feel good and rested
In the morning," said Mr. Baker. "We
haven't done much today to make us
tired."
"You haven't taken enough exercise
today," suggested Mayor A bee. "You'd
better go take a walk."

tween here and the south can get away
from it.
Apples are to be featured In every
palatable form from old-fashioned "ap
ple sass" to some of the dainty inven
tions of the modern day that have
evolved the cookery of this fruit to
such perfection that it can be stretched
out over a whole bill of fare and still
appear in new forms.
Loyal citizens of Oregon will be
known today by appearing with an
apple in their hand, and, inasmuch as
health specialists have long held the
apple to be one of the best food me
diums for developing health and brains,
the general average of human health
and intelligence should strike a high
wave here at this time.
No one need confine himself to a
single apple to show his loyalty, either.
The 115 crop is estimated at 3,403,000
bushels, so everyone can go as far as
he likes. If the Oregon crop doesn't
hold out, the apple territory in Wash
ington, which is tributary to Portland,
has a crop estimated at more than
7,000,000 bushels.
The Nortonia Hotel is putting out
today a special dinner in .which the
apple is featured with marvelous In
genuity. At the Oregon . Hotel they
will offer monogrammed apples to all
women who visit the grill. Each apple
bears the name of the hotel in "sun
tattoo" on its red cheek. The process
for marking the apples was originated
in Hood River, and the apples are from
Chet Whitemore's apple ranch. The
Multnomah, Portland, and other lead
ing hotels are also offering apple menus.
At, the Panama-Pacific Exposition the
apple-growers of Oregon will distribute
thousands of fine apples to exposition
visitors today, and reams of literature
on the Oregon apple will be given out.
The railroads are also featuring the
apple strongly.
One of the Interesting and attractive
contributions to the Apple day cele
bration in Portland will be the demon
stration by the Northern Pacific Rail
way. Through the enterprise of Hazen J.
Titus, dining-car superintendent of the
Northern Pacific, a mammoth float, the
central figure of which is a monster
apple, has been prepared'for exhibition
on the Portland streets. Several -hundred
boxes of choice Oregon apples will
be distributed by the white-uniformed
colored boys as the float moves along.
Most of these apples have the fa
miliar Northern Pacific monogram em
blazoned on their sides.
The Northern Pacific also will serve
apples in various tempting forms on
all of Its dining-cars today. More than
10,000 copies of a 16-page booklet, ad
vising housewives on the manner of
preparing apples, will be distributed
by the Northern Pacific.

sion from the Government of $21 a

obtaining the pension because tha War
Department records bore no evidence
of Mr. Rhodes having served in the
Union Army during the Civil War, ex
cept for a two months' period. This
time was insufficient to warrant the
granting of the pension.
Mr. Rhodes served in the Fourth

months was secretly transferred to
the espionage service, serving in this
department for three years. Ha traveled
through the South posing as a peddler

I wish to inform you of the great
benefit I have derived from the use of
Swamp-Root. I had been a sufferer for
more than twenty years from kidney
and liver trouble and was almost con
stantly treated by the most eminent
physicians who could only give me
temporary relief. I bad bcn in bed
ten weeks when I began the use of
Swamp-Root.. Inside of twenty-four
hours I could see that I had been
greatly benefited. I oonfnued to use
Swamp-Root until I had used several
bottles, when I really felt that my old
trouble was completely cured and I am
positive that any person suffering with
kidney or liver trouble can De cured by
the use of this preparation.
I am now in the best of health, bet
ter than I have been for ten years or
mora I do not know how to express
myself as strongly as I desire, in favor
o Dr. Kilmer's Swamp-root, aa I am
sure that it saved my life end that my
good health is due entirely to this great

Uric Acid in Meat Excites Kid'

Bladder.
Take Salts at First Sign of Blad
der Weakness or Kidney
Backache. Kidney and Bladder weakness result
from urio acid, says a noted authority.
The kidneys filter this acid from the
blood and pass it on to the bladder,
where it often remains to irritate and
inflame, causing a burning, scalding
sensation, or setting up an irritation
at the neck of tbe bladder, obliging you
to aeek relief two or three times during
the night. Tha aufferer is In constant
dread, the water passes sometimes
with a scalding sensation and is very
profuse: again there is difficulty in
avoiding it.
Bladder weakness, most folks call It.
because they can't control urination.
While it is extremely annoying and
sometimes very painful, this is really
one of the most simple ailments to
overcome. Get about four ounces of
Jad Salts from your pharmacist and
take a tablespoonful in a glass of water
before breakfast, continue this for two
or three days. This will neutralise tbe
acids in the nrine so it no longer is
a source of irritation to the bladder and
urinary organs which then act normal
ly again.
Jad Salts is inexpensive, harmless,
and is made from the acid of grapes
and lemon juice, combined with llthia.
and Is used by thousands of folks who
are subject to urinary disorders caused
by uric acid irritation. Jad Salts Is
splendid for kidneys and causes no bad
effects whatever.
Here you have a pleasant effervescent

lieves bladder trouble. Adv.
