TO INVADE
CALIFORNIA
PENINSULA
UNITED MESS LEASED WIRE.)
San Diego, Cal., April 22. That an.
other Invasion of Lower California
like that headed for a time by Simon
Berthold In the recent revolution In
Mexico is planned for the near future,
Is the opinion of some local authori
ties who have received report of re
cent activity near the Mexican line.
In the last week several small par
ties of men have been soen marching
from San Diego toward Campo, which
Ib 60 miles east, near the Interna
tional boundary.'
All these men carried packs made
up In the same way, each long enough
to hold a rifle If taken apart They
are described as hard-looking men. In
all cases they have declined offers
t "HfU" In automobiles and wagons.
Berthold's idea was to establish a
so-called socialist republic In Lower
California. That the present would
bo an opportune time to Invade Mex
ico Is generally admitted, and one the
ory Is that another attempt like Ber
thold's Is under way. From Campo
the roads Into Mexico are easy.
Chief of Police Wilson thinks the
I. W. V. movement to the south is to
swell the proposed army of invasion.
He said today:
'I don't think it Is for anything
else. There Is quite a force of these
men near the line. Mexican troops
are after them on the south Bide and
United States troops on the north. A
man named Tobo Is In charge. He
has been wanted for some time In con
nection with the shooting of a man
named Arguello In Jacumba valley."

CONTRACTOR'S
STATEMENT
Otl TRUSSES
Salem, April 22, 1912. We as con
tractors for the new Carnegie library,
wish to make a statement regarding
the failure of trusses.-
We have reports from the Newcomb
Engineering Co., a concern which
makes truss designing their profes
sion, and who designed the trusses
for the Salem armory; also Mr. C.
Madsen, who designed all the steel
work for the new court house In Port
land. Both concerns emphatically
state that the failed trusses are not
strong enough.
: The Portland building department
has also rendered a report which con
demns the trusses.
The library committee on April 5th
made a practical test of the strength
of trusses, the result being that the
trusses foiled a second time by buck
ling and sagging 18 Inches.
We wish to emphasize the fact that
Dignity
That's something which all
clothes should have. No suit can
lend dignity and strength to your
appearance unless it possesses indi
vidual characteristics of cut, style
and pattern.

these trusses failed when only a load
of 30,000 pounds had been applied,
whereas, according to safe engineering
practice, a load of at least 75,000
pounds would come on each truss.
We have complied with the request
of the building committee to submit
an estimate for new trusses of suffi
cient strength, also an estimate for
re-enforcing the present trusses, yet
in view of the above facta, we have
received a notice dated April 19th,
1912, to re-erect the present trusses
as per original drawings and specifications.
We herewith notify the public that
we will re-erect the present trusses
as per the original drawings, but we
will not be responsible for any acci
dents or failures that may occur In
the future, as we are proceeding
against our own judgment and entirely
upon the judgment of the architect
and building committee.

City Attorney Clears Doubt
As to Releasing Single Lots in the Oaks Addition Under
the Improvement Bonds Now Existing
Against the Property.
April 20, 1912.
John H. Scott, Sales Agent, Salem, Oregon.
Dear Sir: I acknowledge your letter of the 20th Inst., asking me
to state whether or not property In the OakB Addition can be re
leased from the Improvement bonds issued against the same upon
payment of the charges levied against the property by any prospec
tive purchaser.
I beg to state In answer to the above that the Bond Lien Docket
of the city shows assessments for both Bewer. and street Improve
ments segregated against specific lota and parcels of land, and I
know of no reason why you cannot pay off tho, llena upon any spe
cific lota or parcels of land thut may be covered by Improvement
bonds Issued under the Bancroft Act, and discharge the Hen against
the specific lot or parcels of land without relation to other property
which may be bonded for the same Improvements.
Yours truly,
ItOLLIN K. PAGE,
City Attorney.
