It appears that the decision of Chairman Wolter*

referred only to Joint discussions and that the Times'

Therefore, It Is very probable that things will be-

The receipts at the Tucson postoffice for the past

excess of the amount necessary to maintain Its tank as
a first-class postoffice. It is also an Indication of tha

fast coming to the front
It is predicted that the lack of food will soon put
an end to the revolution In Mexico, but as a matter of
fact It appears that Mexican armies can get along on
less food than any fighting force on earth. Flenty of
ammunition appears to be the only requisite necessary
to keep the fighting forces continually tn the field.

Some Curiosities of the Court
Some of the curious trivial technicalities which are
to defeat justice are amusing to the disinterested,
while creating a serious question as to the extent of the
culpability of the courts in allowing a technicality
whether trlval or great to defeat strict and important
justice.
Nn one can complain because the lawyer raises
these technicalities, for it is his sworn duty to his
client and In strict conformity with ethics that he leave
no point unused, that may benefit the cause of his
client—and strange to say, having taken a case, his
duty to his client is just as great whether the case be
founded on justice or injustice.
To get back to the subject. A woman in Massa-
chusetts wrote her will, Tn it she clearly stated what
disposition she wanted made of her estate and so far as
its expression of the testatrix's desires went was a re-
markably clear written document that left no doubt.
After reading the Will to the three witnesses and show-
ing them where to sign their names she left. Five min-
utes later she returned stating to the same witnesses
that she had forgotten to sign her name and then signed
it in their presence.
The will was contested and the supreme court of
Massachusetts declared it invalid because it had not
been properly signed and witnessed.
A woman passenger on a New Hampshire road
moved from one seat to another scat vacated by a pas-
senger who left the train. She placed her arm In the
call the intangible Interests damaged—that Is the cost
necessary to get business back to the point where It was
interrupted, the'losses sustained by the shutting down
of mines, suspension of operations rn development
projects.
The tangible losses can be estimated in the course of
time, but It Is going to be a matter of years before the
antagonisms that have grown out of the insurrection can
be overcome, and the cordial business relations restored.
El Paso, however, has a way of overcoming diffi-
culties, and. having the business men and the ware* they

GOVERNOR OF INDIANA
MAKES PUBLIC STATEMENT,
associated Press Disputes.
Indianapolis, April 23.—Governor
Marshall, who granted the requisi-
tion of the governor of California,
for the taking of McNamara from In-
diana issued a statement late today
declaring that there is no ground for
the contention that he did anything
unfair.
"1 did not know who McNamara
was,” said the governor’s statement,
"and 1 did not know and do not
know now whether he Is guilty or in-
nocent. That is not a matter for me
to determine! When a requisition
comes from the governor of a for-
eign state, charglhg a’ crime and cer-
tifying that the defendant is a fugi-
tive from justice, there Is nothing
for me to do but to honor toe requisi-
tion and Issue the warrant. My office
does not constitute a court.”
Judge James A. Collins, of police
court, bfefore whom McNamara was
arraigned yesterday preliminary to
his being started on his way to Cal-
ifornia,'-was emphatic In his declara-
tion today that he was not hostile to
organized label* and that he was act-
ing within the province of the law In
turning McNamara over to the west-
ern authorities.
"McNamara was brought into court
late yesterday, charged with being a
fugitive from justice from California.
As tho officer presented a properly
honored requisition, the only question
for me. to pass upon, was the man’s
Identity, which he admitted and he
whs ordered surrendered to the agent
of the state of California."
The Doming idea of a model farm for the purpose
of making evident the agricultural possibilities of the
Mimbro* valley, is a good one. Actual proof afforded by-
growing crops is an argument that cannot be success-
tion for damages and the supreme court decided that j fully controverted,
she was entitled to recover. j ----,, —-
Still another New Hampshire ease is a curiosity.
The people were In the habit, against the protest of the
owners, of passing across a piece of land because It made
a short cut, and a path had been worn aeross the land.
The owners stretched a telephone wire across the path
Several of the trespassers humped Into the wire and one
of them, a woman was hurt and sued the owners of the
land for damages and got a verdict and the supreme
court affirmed it. although It was proven that people
had been forbid den to come upon the land or use the
path and she was therefore a trespasser.
To the layman judicial reasoning and determination
are things past all understanding.
In Douglas a young man under 21 years of ago
found he eould not under the law file on public land
unless he was Hie head of a family. He remedied tho
situation by promptly getting married and Is now hold-
ing down the coveted 160 acres and basking in tho
smiles of a happy bride.
Blau and Converse are now free from the com-
plications they found themselves In with the Mexican
government, and their experience should tie a valu-
able lesson to other young Americans who have ex-
perienced a burning desire to fight all the battles of
the Mexican revolution, It is a pious idea for nil Am-
ericans ta let the Mexican situation entirely alone, In
order that the friendly relations between the United
States and Mexico may be maintained.
Alfalfa that was out near Pecos, Texas, ten days
ago, Is again 15 inches high, and soli that will cause
alfalfa to grow 1 1-2 inches every 24 hours certainly
must have something in tTs that should render It of
great value.
it is perfectly clear at this writing that If peace
falls to come to distracted Mexico, it will not be owing
to the willingness of Senor Madero to grant all the
time required for necessary consideration.
The Douglas papers report that hundreds of tha
Mexican revolutionists who have been operating In that
vicinity have laid down their urms, crossed the border
and are hiking to the Gtla valley in search o? employ-
ment. The trouble in that vicinity is now believed to
be virtually over.
Those Mexican students who prepared to wal* upon
President Diaz for the purpose of requesting Ills resig-
nation, at the last moment decided not to subject the
grim old warrior to such humiliation. Their final de-
cision in the premises may have also served to savs
the students from finding themselves In the midst of nn
unpleasant predicament.
If the Mexican swords are now really about to he

profound satisfaction on both sides of the border. The

The Campaign Now On
The advocates of statewide prohibition opened
their campaign by a speech by Col. Thomas H. Bali at
\Vaco on San Jacinto day. The event was widely ad-
vertised and the prohibition advocate* confidently de-
clared that 12,000 to 20,000 people would assemble to
hear the speeches. The most liberal estimate of the
size of the crowd present was 1,500.
Col. Ball declared that the Bailey question should
not be allowed to enter tnto the campaign and both
Bailey and Anti-Bailey men spoke in favor of an amend-

The city of Douglas is seriously considering the
adoption of the commission form of government, and
It ts a plan that has met with unqualified succesa

ment of several years standing evince no desire for a
return to the old method.
The new city marshal of Globe has promulgated an
edict that the sale of liquors in wine rooms in that

PRESIDENT IRON WORKERS
BELIEVES PRISONER INNOCENT.
,A.'Jtnn'Uiic<t rrvHH jJitputvn.
Indianapolis, April 23.—Declaring
that the police had "kidnaped” John
J, McNamara, and that the finding
of dynamite in a storage compart-
ment, belonging to the offices of the
association of bridge and structural
Iron workers, was not proof of Mc-
Namaras guilt, because the detectives
often had "created” evidence ^gainst
1 labor unions, Frank M. Ryan, pres-
i iilent of the Iron workers' association,
tonight issued a statem. ut on behalf
of himself and the'executive Hard.
Mr. ttyan said the organization is
emphatically opposed to the use of
any explosive for the mat, button of
life and property in label disputes,
and asks the public to withhold
judgment iti the case until the facts
are known. The curie ment praises
McNamara and continues:
"To the public »; nuiv seem that the
finding of explosi.es tn a uiuli sup-
posed to tie in bis .tola control, is
evidence of his guilt, but to those who
•know as we do, that in times gone
l*y private detectives. In the employ
of manufacturers have wilfully cre-
ated such evidence for the purpose
of convicting labor leaders, and that
such facts have been established in
our courts time after time, the mere
finding of explosives will not prove
so convincing.
"Already there is evidence in our
hands that strangers had access to
the vault in which the dynamite is
said to have been found.
"To us It seems strange, indeed,
that the police should find it neces-
sary to kidnap Mr. McNamara and
lake him to Chicago in an automobile,
when, as they assert, they have an
abundance of evidence on which to
convict him.
"If they actually have this evidence
we cannot understand why they
should have been uhwllling to allow
him to confer with his attorney and
to preserve such of his rights as ho
might have had in the courts of In-
diana. Evidently they feared the out-
come of any proceedings in this state
and preferred to take their victim into
a district which they know ts In-
tensely excited.
"We are forced to the conclusion
that this action was taken only be-
cause Mr. McNamara Is an officer o#
a labor organization as we have never
known of similar procedure in the
case of others than labor leaders."
Arizona is doubtless taking notice of the fact that
in the few states of the union that are adopting con-
stitutional amendments providing for the recall that of
the Judiciary is omitted. Jonathan Bourne's Influence
seems to be potent only tn Oregon and Arizona Just at
this time.
That New Hampshire editor who lived in his office
on i* cents per day and was burned to death a few day*
ago. has at least one consolation if permitted to look
back in this direction from the other side. He did not
have much of a life to lose.
The situation in Mexico right now Is exactly at the
point where sonje hot-headed members of the Untted
States congress can make a great deal of trouble for
two friendly nation*. The situation is one of extreme
gravity and should be handled with much care.
Republican newspapers In commenting on the con-
templated revision of the wool schedule by the Demo-
cratic congress, declare It Is "Goodbye to the woolgrow-
er." And-while Tho Times does not believe it Is as bad
as that. It cannot refrain from suggesting at the same
time that it may be "howdy” for the wool wearer.

Chicago, April 23.—Captain Steph-
en Wood, chief of the Chicago deteo-
tive bureau, said tonight that a full
confession had been secured from "one
of the men arrested In Detroit In con-
nection with the destruction of the
Los Angeles Times building.
The alleged confession is said to
cover 90 typewritten pages and to re-
