was alleged to bo duo chlolly
(1) To prematurity of division.
(2) To lnonultnhlo division lino

That, In vlow of tlto rapid develop

(.ratifying prospects of similar do
velopmsnt oUewhoro In the county,
the objection of prematurity would
seem to be eliminated.
That if the Commercial Clubs of
Redmond nnd Prlnovillo approach the

iellef that a lino botwean Redmond

"Mexico," says Mr. Nixon, "or that

the High Desert country, only tho
northern Mexican country Is far
greater l'i extent, and presents far
greater piohloms to the traveler. 8o
vore hot weather and high humidity
will be depressing to the American
troopers. Scarcity of water will also
bo keenly felt should the army he
sent directly south tluough the heart
of tho country. Thero are hundreds
of mlUs nt a stretch where no water
Is obtulnnblo. The conditions under
which the troops will invade will d
tormlne much as to tho hardships

follow the line of the Mexican Cen

"The war, should It lie declared
