General Cnrranm's reply to the Mexican med iators announcing his Intention of Bending three delegates to tho Nia gara conference) Mas received hero early today and forwarded to Nia gara Falls. No announcement of the contents of Carranra's reply was made here, but It was understood the uotu Is ttllcnt on tho ibject or an armistice and does not glvo tho names ot the mcn who will -bo sent to represent tho constitutionalists. It is Known, however, that Rafael Kubaran, minister ot tho Interior In tho Carranta cabinet, and chief oi the agency hero, will not bo among tho delegates, as General Carranxn considers Zubaran Is needed to look after affairs here. Two of the delegates arc almost certain to be Luis Cabrera, a promi nent figure In tho constitutionalist movement, and Joso Vasconcclos. a young lawjer. Tho namo of tho third man was not known here. President Wilson authorized today tho announcement that he considers the progress of mediation at Niagara Falls as "very encouraging." No formal statement was mndo of the basis of tho president's optimism, but it was said unofficially thit he expects mediation to bare a success ful outcome the next few days. ami at' TIE STAR TODAY .

IV the agitat ion' over suburban water rates bus done nothing else, it has given the public an insight into the ideas, ideals and idiosyneraeies of some of the oonuoiliuen their breadth ot vision, eajiaeit y and measurement. Couneihnan Sargent complains of the use of Bedford streets by outsiders, lie says: "They use the streets day and night . . . Often several times a day . . . much fuoro than the citizens living inside the limits." Therefore he would raise the suburban water rents to a prohibitive scale, because the suburbanites use city streets! Win does not the city council establish toll gates for the use' or these streets aiid make the suburbanites "come through" like the Dollarhides do the tourist over the Sis kiyou's? Here is a possible source or revenue the watch dogs of tho treasury are overlooking. Why not build a Avail around Medford and permit no one to come within the sacred precincts without contrib uting to the public funds I .lust as well as to punish those who'lmvo had the temerity to build residences, improve the "barren hills and develop the country outside the portals. There never was a city so entirely dependent upon the surrounding country as Medford. It has scarcely any man ufacturing "or other money-producing industries. It is dependent upon the products of the soil the returns to the orchardist, the farmer, the stockman, the miner, the timberman, for existence. Out off the surrounding terri-toi-v nnd check its dovelonment and Medford would, in deed, become the deserted thing in reason that can no none xo assist me country o development must be done to assure Mcdford's growth and prosperity. As n matter of fact, it is the outsider who is really paying, though indirectly, the cost of city govern ment and of improvements. Yet here we have the boll wether of the city council bleating because the outsider uses tho city streets! If thev didn't use them, there would be no need for streets. The more thev use them and the more inducements held out for thir use the better. The trouble at present is that there are not enough outsiders using those precious streets. If there were ton times as many we would have an abiding and permanent prosperity. Colonel Sargent Ti the ftliler: At la-.t at Int! The clinrniins ilcnoncmi'iit of the whole mailer has been reached.

The latter makes for clieerfulne and nl(ruim (synonymou-. for proy jicrity) in any community, and i loo t ten disregarded until the sup ply runs .short or the horse breaks out.

Perhaps ho may succeed in cor nilling this astonishing luck of liore sense which lias run amuck iinihide the palings of logical te iucncc. A thousand pardons if I incidentally liamp down a little gar den mjeelf. Him Mr. Sargent ever heard or a logical sequence f Possibly not. Are his remarks fatuous? They are, or in the words of our small friend, "Jeff," "I rhpuld bilible." ffo snyft (Sargent, not Jeff 1 : This water belongs to the city oi .Mwi- ford to its cilimia and to no one else."

Mr, Sargent says (and tin is u classic, bolke me, that will appeal to the most embryonic sense of hu mor): "Outsiders use the Htrcets day' nnd night. Jinny of them living just outside the city limits and coming daily, often several times a du.v, to the business district, use these well-I lighted streets on mi average much iiuiro than the citizens living iuide tho limits." Is it possible! How in considerate, when there are so many good country roads near by nnd ad jacent thereto. The streets of .Med ford are for the exclusive use ol residents, of courrc.

I suggest that hereafter eeitain hours on certain nights be designat ed by the council for innchers to visit town, and mi said nights to cut off tho city lights for our special correction nnd uplift. We can carr.v lanterns. Might close the movie on those nights, too. We didn't pay for their equipment. Did .vou, Mr. Sargent? Quoting ngaiq the immortal Jeff, "I should bihhlc!" W. OAKLKTON .TANKS.
