Cproner medfotid LIBELLING IN J'I'S issue til' June 2 Ihc lilicllcil (lie west liv tiriiil hit' On! tlio AVcst," depicting Uncle Sam ,with the club of the law in hand, jioundiiif; a snake's nest of "traitors, plotters, anarchists, pro-Oerinai) socialists" and their ilk. Tlit! cartoon is an expression of provincialism and an appeal to sectionalism. The reflection that the west is unpatriotic and traitorous is not only malicious hut false. There exist no grounds for such a cartoon. The west elected President Wilson. It has filled its quota of voluiiteei's for the nation's defense and exceeded the east in proportion to nunilier enlisted. It has sur passed the east in responding to selective service not only in proportionate registration, but in low percentage, of ex emptions claimed. It is subscribing to its full share of Liberty bonds. Its harvests will feed the world, and in sure not only national salvation, but the success of the war. Tilts west, of course, has its. anarchists, traitors and plotters, but nothing like as many as the east in propor tion to population. It lias fewer slackers, fewer plotters, fewer t raitors, because it is purer American than the east, with its hordes of European immigrants. Every conspir acy that has been uncovered as nation-wide in its ramifica tions, has its head in the east mostly in New York. The west will answer for its patriotism and furnish the men and the food that will win the world war and it needs no advice from that collection of foreign cities labelled New York, the headquarters of plotters, traitors and an archists that threaten tlie nation's existence. TOO LATE HKIfHKK'T (.'. IIOOVEIJ, outlining his plans for lower ing food prices to a delegation of labor representa tives and congressmen yesterday, said it was vital that congress pass the administration food bill immediately. "Thru the last three veal's," Hoover told the delegation, ."two words have been written over the pages of English history. 'Too late.' Unless the Lever bill is passed .im mediately, before the grain is harvested, 'too late" will be written into our own history." Yet notwithstanding the fact that, the nation is at war and that its future existence is threatened as a result of the Russian collapse, congress wastes the precious moments in endless debate over trivialities. It took six weeks to enact a selective draft law to raise an army. It has taken ten weeks to pass the war budget providing the pay for the soldiers enlisted. The war reve nue bill is still enmeshed in oratory while the espionage bill with most of its valuable features blown off,' has final ly weathered the gale of gab. The various food control bills are adrift, blown hither and thither in the tornado of talk that threatens to over whelm them with disaster in the. interest of the food gam bler, who neither sows nor reaps, but harvests the profits of extortion at the expense of the nation. Let us hope that the war will not be over thru the ca pitulation of our allies before congress awakens to the need of the hour action. Let us hope that it will not be written about the United States as it has about Uritain that we are too late!

Two American cavalrymen held the ford here late last night against a band of twenty-five armed and mounted Mex icans who attempted to raid the American settlement hero, driving them back into Mexico after a tbird had come to their assistance. The Mexicans charged against the Rio Grande at the old Ysleta ford, one mile below the town and thirteen miles east of Kl Paso. They opened fire on tho two mounted cavalry pa trols who dismounted, found cover and returned the fire. The Mexicans were driven back. Ono of the troop ers said he saw a man drop from his saddle, but no bodies could bo found. The soldiers wlio held tho ford were Privates Blake and Bearing, Troop C, Eighth cavalry. Corporal McDade re inforced thetn. Troops were sent from El Paso, and Kort Bliss, but the Mexicans did not return. The Mexicans are believed to be members of a gang of outlaws who have their rendezvous at San Lorenzo, opposlto Yslota. SPAIN ADHERES TO POLICY OF NEUTRALITY MADRID, June 13. Ediumlo Dnto, premier of the new Spanish cabi net, declared today that the return of Miii'quis Dc Lenia to the post of minister of foreign affairs was a guarantee that the new Spanish gov ernment would Continue to follow a policy of uhsolule neutrality. DID YOU SEE IT? Conspicuous on tho streets of Medford Monday was a battle ship syrcy colored Saxon Roadster hearing the inscription "Saxon Trail Blazer for Na tional Boundary Highway." The car arrived in Medford at (i p. in., drove down Main street and stopped at the A. AV. Walker Auto Co., where the pilot A. W. Schlaback, was a guest while in the city. On the clay following the inaug uration this ear left Washington, 1. C, on its journey around the boundary of the United States, and it will he the first vehicle of any sort to completely define our border. The car will continue its trip north from here to Seattle, across the Canadian boundary to Maine, then down the Atlantic Coast to Washington. The car has traveled 8000 miles of borderland through Miami, Florida, Brownsville, Texas, El Paso, San Diego. Of great significance is the fact that the trail blazed by this car will con nect by tlie most direct motor route practically all of the important fortifica trons and military posts which protect our country from invasion. Further more, it. will connect the military and naval bases by a direct route with every point on the entire boundary line of the United States, which might need pro tection in time of war or might he of strategic importance from which to carry on military operations. That the Saxon Motor Car corporation is anxious to promote the rapid construction nnd improvement of such boundary highway is natural, as their cars have not only been prominent in trail blazing, but during the recent Mexi can crisis, Saxon cars were used extensively in border service, and the conipanv made a thoro study of the operation of motor oars in connection with army ma neuvers and transport service. Observations showed that a good boundary highway would have greatly facilitated operations on the border. In sending a standard equipped Saxon Roadster to travel this proposed highway and make exhaustive reports.. on conditions of roads, is a beginning of what the motor car manufacturers may do to aid in building up an adequate secondary national defense. Not only is this highway expected to be of great benefit for national de fense, but it will place many new cities and interesting places on a line of mo tor travel, points which the motorist today has to make by special trip and at a considerable cost in the delays and inconveniences that always aceonipauv a trip into an unchartered country. In the use of Saxon Four as trail blazer there is a speial interest to everv automobile owner. The light weight, strongly constructed car demonstrates ihe rapid strides which manufacturers are making to give motorists economi cal cars w hich stand the strain and hardships of long tours. The Saxon trail Mazer is keeping an accurate record of gasoline consumption and tire and re pair costs for the onttirc trip, figures which should form a basis for estimates of costs on a similar run by other motor ears.

Wilson's, note to Kussia, the Iierlinger Tagc blntt, according to a Wolf buicau dispateli to the Dutch newspapers, says : "The entente countries natuially nio filled with satisfaction and grati tude to President Wilson for hav ing innde himself the mouthpiece of the enemy alliance against democ racy. President Wilson lias practiced self-denial to such an extent that that he could not have given the mes sage a more appropriate superscrip tion than 'Wilson versus Wilson;' but perhaps he rates the judgment of the representatives of the Russian people insultingly low when he believes that they will not grasp the meaning of this tight rop performance by Franco-British order with the object of detaching the lfussiuns from their standpoint." The Vossiche Zeitung, under the caption "War Message of a Peace President," says: . "Tltc turgid phrases ariTso fet'oign to the 'German nature that the Oer npin mind cannot understand how one can honestly enthuse over the fraternization of men nnd yet simul taneously seek to prolong n most hor rible war. Does Wilson write to Rus sia to hasten the advent of peace? No to prevent peace! "From the chaos of the Russian revolution there has arisen n lasting and growing feeling, namely, a strong will for peace. Kngland clings to stolen territory.

CENSUS ESTIMATE OF WAR RULES ID BE EXCEEDED WASHIN'GTOK, June IX War registration returns from '.17 states indicated that when all states have reported the total enrolled, the census estimates of cligibles will be sur passed, figuring on the (iUO.OOO men now in military and naval branches of the service. The provost marshal-general's of fice indicated tonight the total legis tralion would he !,'iOO,000, slightly more than 90 per cent of the census estimates of 10,")00,fl00. Deductions indicated by the war department, however, would reduce this estimate about 12 per cent or to u little more than 9,000,000. Willi 11 more states to report, war department records showed tonight that 7,1-9,:108 have registered, as compared with census estimates of 7,77.'l,4(i7 for the states represented. Of those registered, 5,408,07:5 were white, 817,H"i'2 were colored, 807,8(i8 were aliens and 94,1111 were alien enemies.
