FEDERALS EVACUATE CHIHUAHUA CAPITAL JL'AIlKZ, Dec. 2. Chihuahua City, capital of Chihuahua ttate, has bon evacuated hy the Mexican federals, according to rebel advices received hoio tonlRht. The troops are report ed to have been starred out. The evacuation leaves the cu open to robul possession. Tho report says Salvailo Merai'to, the military gover nor, with 200 federal troops loft on tout for OJInaga, on tho border nsar Mnrfa. Texas and Otfiierah. Joio Inez Kalnznr and Pasual Qrozro with over 1000 federals retrnatod to tho moun tains west of tlm city, ami hundreds of civilians, Including woinun and children who wore im tho verge ot starvation, startod to walk to tho American border. Chihuahua, with p population ot normally 35,000 Is tho metropolis of northern Moxlco. Gouornl Villa tonight telegraphod tho details of tho evacuation to Car ranza nt IlcrmoBllIo saying the pro posed advauco toward Mexico City would bo cxpedltod. "Tho report of tho capitulation of Chihuahua is authentic" said Vlll.i. "Jt came In nn official dispatch which bald tho city was ovacuatod Sunday. 1 will sond a forco to lhtercopt'Mercado and also to capturo Orozco and Sal ajar, Wo wjll ho nearlng Mexico, Cy wlthju a inojith." EDERAI GRAND RY K LEAD BRAND MUNICIPAL EXTRAVAGANCE. THE eilv tax low of Inst voar was 0.9 mills, on U valu ation of .40,932,'sn, yielding .foiVJ'JO. Kor tho present voar tho low, as rooontlv fixed hv tho oitv oounoil, is 12 'mills on a valuation of i5.n02,f22. yielding $IU5,0:W. Out of this year's rovonuos wore paid tho oxtra ex penses incurred in const moling tho Boar Crook bridge approaches and tho removal and construction expenses of tho Jackson street bridge. Notwithstanding tho fact that no oxtra expenses are to ho mot this year, oxeopt tho needless purchase of the Little Butte ranch, and tho money spent this year in bridge construction saved, tho council has increased taxes approximately .$7,000. Tins Increased taxation is unjustifiable at tho present tiriie.. Instead of figuring upon spending more of tho tax pavers' money, the council should be practicing economy aillftljponlling loss. The levy should have boon $7,000 lighter instead of $7,000 heavier. Tho minimum fixed salary list of city employes is given by the city reoordor as $35,100. To this must bo added oxtra police and oxtra men employed in the street and other departments. A glance through the list reveals many possible economics, savings that, any man would make in the conduct of his own business, and that there is no excuse for not having made in the conduct of the public business since the first of the year. Tho city pays a city engineer $150 a month, with prac- tieallv no engineering to bo missioncr $l00 a month, an -j -iai js tjie w0l 0f fwoi it pavs an electrical in spector $io a month, a plumbing inspector .?;, with scarcely anything to do in cither office. It provides a water superintendent at $125 a month, two assistant wa ter superintendents at $90 each in addition to the reser voir caretakers and day labor. In addition to this it runs and maintains two automobiles for official use which includes trips by eoUneilmen to Crater lake and fishing trips to the Rogue at public expense. Business methods would abolish all those offices, make one niaii city engineer and superintendent of public works, giving him general charge over all those depart ments, lie should direct all work, and employ needed assistants. One automobile is sufficient and it could be kept in repair by the firemen, who would be glad of oc cupation that docs not interfere with their duties. Only nccessnrv street work should be done aud the pnvroil kept down. These economies the present pavroll. 'The police department docs same strength that it wife during the days when a million dollars a year was being spent in public improvements, half as much more in other works, and floaters from till sections drifted here. One ought to be sutticieut to handle the situation. There are now four on the regular force and alwavs an extra or two. If experience proved the need of additional police they could be added. A close scrutiny would probably reveal economies that could be made in other departments, were business meth ods employed the intent being not to be parsimonious or cripple the public service, possible. As the city does not secure mayor and council, but instead gets increased taxation to support superfluous otficials, a return to the old methods, whereby leading citizens regarded it an honor to serve the community and gave freely of their time without re muneration, should be tried. Taking ;the salaries off, which are not suffiicent to be an object to the class of citizens desired, would result in a saving to the taxpayers of $2,200 a year, or half a mill of the tax levied and every half mill counts these days. It would be interesting toiknow what the council plans to do with the otftra money sweated out -of the taxpayers probably name a few more superintenclc'nts with little or nothing to do. Water With Radio Activity MOT LAKE SPRINGS, Ore, Dec. 2. Pitchblende, tho substance from which radium Is obtained, Is an oxldo of uranium. Uranium Is a metallic element. Pitchblende Is spoiled as ono word and as two. Sometimes It Is Used as a hyphenated word. However, Web ster gives It as one word.
