CHALLENGES ITS GONSISTANCY Informs U. S. if Proclamation la Threat, Dignity of the Mexican People Will be Maintained. Washington.—Francisco Lagos Cha zaro, the latest president of the Villa Zapata coalition government in Mex ico City, replied to President Wilson’s Mexican statement by challenging the consistency of the president’s declara tion with his much discussed Indian apolis speech. Wilson’s statements served notice on the factional leaders that if they could not accommodate their dif ferences the United States would be constrained, as Mexico’s next friend, to help Mexico save itself and serve its people. Chazaro says the convention gov ernment cannot reconcile that whn the president’s declaration in In dianapolis that he had no disposition to interfere in Mexican affairs. “Bui,” says Chazaro’s reply, re ceded at the State department, “we continue to conjecture the general idea of President Wilson’s proclama tion is to help us in a friendly way.” If the president’s declaration is to be construed as a threat, Chazaro adds, the convention “will maintain the dignity of the Mexican people.” It blames the Carranza forces for Mexico’s plight. Abounding in epi gram, Chazaro’s reply makes extend ed references to "economic and social reforms,” the establishment of a stable government and guarantees to life and property. It makes no refer ence to recognition by the United Stales. Chazaro’s hostile reception of the president’s statement, coming close on Villa’s reply, which decidedly re flected a receptive mood, stirred up a good deal of attention in official cir cles. Chazaro is supposed to be a Villa man. Reports of starvation of civilians in the vicinity of Monterey also reached the state department and were trans mitted to the American Red Cross. Mr. Hanna reported that on June 15 he fed 12,000 noncombatants with corn sent by the Red Cross, “We will be feeding 15,000 by the end of the week,” he added. From Salina Cruz food is reported scarce with no prospects of relief. Locusts are destroying crops in tha' region. Junkin Act Valid. Lincoln, Neb.—The Junkin act, pro hibiting combinations in restraint of trade, is upheld by the Nebraska su preme court in opinions handed down in the celebrated case of the Marsh Burke Coal company of Lincoln against J. H. Yost Lumber and Coal company, in which the former se cured a judgment for $23,000. The plaintiff company asked judg ment in three times the amount of damages as per the Junkin act, but in this case the upper court holds that the amount is sufficient. It was al leged by the Marsh-Burke company that shipments of coal to towns in which the defendants had yards was practically impossible because of jueans used to keep them out. Mail Opening Perplexing Problem. Washington—United States officials are confronted with a perplexing problem in connection with the com plaint of the Swedish minister here that private mail from New' York to Sweden was opened while passing through England. As the mails were alleged to have been opened in England and not on the high seas, interesting legal questions have been raised which make it seem doubtful to many of ficials whether the United States could do more than transmit the com plaint to Great Britain for considera tion. Allies Lose Heavily. Boston.—The cruiser North Caro lina just returned to home water af ter ten months of varied foreign serv ice. bringing accounts of the fighting in the Dardanelles. Officers and men said that the British and French forces had sustained heavy losses, and that the hospitals at Alexandria were crowded with wounded.

TWINE PUNT PAYS MINNESOTA MAN TELLS OF IN. DUSTRY IN HIS STATE. PRODUCT SOLD IN NEBRASKA Farmers of This State Have Bought Nearly Two Million Pounds Al ready This Season. Lincoln.-—W. C. McMillan, superin tendent of the sales department of the twine plant at the Minnesota state prison, has excited some envy in the hearts of state officials with a glow ing account of the profitableness of the prison industry in his state. Ac cording to Mr. McMillan, the Minne sota plant has realized up until this year a total of $1,386,362 in net prof its. Mr. McMillan, who was a caller at the state house recently, submit ted his twine to Food t'ommissioner Harman for the required test. He is selling it in Nebraska at 614 cents a pound in carload lots. He says that he has sold 1,700,000 pounds to Ne braska farmers so far this season. Two years ago the Nebraska legis lature appropriated $35,000 for a sim ilar plant in this state. The appro priation, which came as a result of a compromise, was too small for the purpose and no attempt was made to establish the industry here. The original appropriation for the Minne sota plant was $250,000. according to Mr. McMillan. There are 1,050 pris oners in the Minnesota institution, of whom 350 are employed in the plant. The output up until this year amounts to 207,000,000 pounds. Game Law Has Effect.

Mr. Holland is in Nebraska checking up evidence of violations of the law, al though no new prosecutions will be commenced until the constitutionality of the law has been decided. He says that the sportsmen of the state are lining up behind the new law-, which, although it bars spring shooting, makes the game more numerous in the fall. Lincoln Citizen* Angry.

Drinking Cup Still in U*e. It appears to be pretty hard work for the State Board of Health to en force its recent order abolishing the common drinking cup in all public places. The board consists of Gov ernor Morehead. Attorney General Reed, democrats; and State Superin tendent Thomas, republican. The public cup may still be found in many public places in Lincoln, the state house and court house in particular, still using the old cup. Auto Races at State Fair.

The first test of the efficiency of using state penitentiary convicts for permanent road-making work will come when paving of the Holdregv street road past the state farm will start. County Surveyor Edgren has completed plans for the paving and all Uiat remains is for the governor to approve them and direct the war den of the penitentiary to put his crew to work. The last legislature appropriated $”5.0t'0 for the state's share of the work. More Silo Excursions. Members of the farmers' associa tions of Box Butte ard Dawes coun ties are planning on holding silo ex cursions of two days each during the month of July. The excursions will be in charge of the county agricultu ral agents of these counties. As a result of the excur-.ions last year the number of sUos in each county was more than doubled.
