BOYS OF FEW YEARS AT COLUMBUS CARRY BIG GUNS TO SCHOOL Raided New Mexico City Re sumes Some of Its Activi ties in Times of Peace. Columbus, N. M.. March 21. (I. N. S.) School reopened Monday. Several boys of 13 or 14, who have to ride for miles across the mesa to reach the town, walked In with man-sise revolvers and cartridge belts 'strappsd around them. Activity of the mllitay forces ;s again at top speed. The aviation squadron was up again this morning and for an hour Columbus was given a chance to see eight blrdroen maneu ver at once. Troop Wagons Are Packed. That a movement of some kind 1s contemplated is apparent by the care in which the big motor trucks and the smaller troop wagons have bein packed and prepared during the day. But the movement as far as civilian Columbus is concerned might Just as well not take place. Some morning, when they awake, the citizens will find blank stretches of tramped earth where a tent city existed the night before. And even the troop camped next to the vacant place will know nothing of where the missing organization has gone. The town, in the absence of many of the residents. Is overrun with dogs. They are of all kinds and descriptions and appear everywhere. Big aog little dogs, wooly ones and the hair less kind try to make friends with anyone who looks like ready food. Soldiers' Vets Xft Behind, The different troops "have contrib uted to the general surplus of animel life by leaving behind on orders of the commanding officers all pets and mascots. Two burros that formerly were mas cots of troops of a cavalry regiment, are now doing duty as mounts for the messenger boys of the Western Union, aird a parrot that belonged to an infantry company is acting as an nouncer for a Chinese restaurant. The parrot can say-"Pork, eh ops, steak and taslTuf 'atra - eggs," and Has? trwe than paid for his lodging by business at tracted to the lace.

GRACE DE GRAFF SPEAKS Talks of Objects and Aeeontpllshmeats of the JTord Peace Party That Visited Zuropo. Expressing herself emphatically In the belief that Republican opposition to the policies of President Wilson la little short of high treason to the country, Maria Iv T. Hidden, at a meeting of the Jackson c'ub at Cen tral library last night, presided over by women and at which women wlch one exception were the speaker?, ex plained why she has become a Demo crat. She made her talk In resnie to a request by Isaac Swett that she be Invited to run for the legislature on the .Democratic ticket, ller castra tion of the Republican party lacked nothing In force of expression. Stands for Political Preferment, In the days of such men as Lincoln and Seward, she said. It stood tor something, but It now stands for noth. ing but political preferment and has no ideals such as actuate the Demo cratic party "under the peerless lead ership of President Wilson." Mrs. Hidden said she had tried to go to the legislature and failed, "ths people preferring to choose the twelve apostles of the Oregonlan," and that she would not be an active candidate. If the Democrats, however, wanted to get out and elect her she would be glad to serve. Q race Be Graff Suggests Slogan. The meeting was presided over by Mrs. John Nissan. Other speakers were Miss Grace De Graff, who talked of the objects and accomplishments of the Ford peace party, and Miss Mary Harper, who for 10 years was superintendent of schools in Washington county, Idaho. Miss De Graff suggested that the party which takes for its slogan this year "Peace, prohibition and petticoats, will be most likely to win In the na tions campaign. Judge Gatens said a few words in behalf of his candidacy for reelec tion as circuit judge. Robert A. Mil ler, president of the club, announced that a committee from the club is to meet with the Woodrow Wilson league to discuss the question of put ting a full Democratic ticket la the field in Multnomah county.

(L N. & The recrui- .ng muddle brought about by Lord Derby's promise to married men that all bachelors should be called up first, which pledge, it is claimed, has been broken, threatens serious trouble unless promptly and decisively han dled. Tho difficulties in the way of the government and the solution of them are causing the cabinet a deal of hard thinking and much anxiety. Bachelors Are Shirking. There is no doubt that thousands of able-bodied young bachelors through out the country are shirking military duty and until they are enlisted a large majority of the married men feel that they have been tricked into attesting. Mass meetings are being held all over Engrland protesting against the broken pledges and urging the govern ment to carry, out its prpmlse. A thousand single young men, for in stance, have recently found employ ment in callings that are exempt, and cannot be touched by the law as it now stands. What the solution will be is doubt ful, but according to the military au thorities the need for more men and large numbers of them is Immediate and imperative. One suggestion which commends it self to many is that the married men be released from their attestation and that compulsory service be extended to include every man, both married and singie Dtyle Makes Suggestion.
