A o s POLITICAL REALIGNMENT 1S COMING, NOT A THIRD PARTY SURVEY REVEALS i (Gontinued from page 1) port of accented progressive prin- ciples and policies.” ; Senator Borah says the_future of the progressive. movement does not necessarily demand the organization of 3 new party—unless a “liberal and sane” legislative program laid down by the progressive group is're- jected Sy the party in power. “1 cleariy foresee a new political line.up,” says Lindley M. Garrison, former member of President Wil son’s cabinet. “The political division which is ahead of -us will take this cleavage: The conservatives of both parties against the radicals of both parties; and it will be safer if this is done by the above-board formation of a third party under a new name, and by serapping one or both of the old parties, or perhaps welding them under a hyphenated name.” Constitution Seen as Dividing Line Garrison would call it the Liberal Conservative party with the consti- tution acting as a sort of dividing line between conservative and radi- cal opinion. S methods, in some respects, are advocated by Nicholas Murray Butler, ‘president of the Columbia University, who says: ““The overwhelming majority of Republicans and the_ overwhelming majority of Democrats who are in substantial agreement on all funda- mentals should speedily find ways to take such ‘steps as may be necessary to form '3 Democratic-Republican party, which would represent the predominant idealism of cur people “Over against such a progress ve liberal party there would naturally e organized a distinct.y radical party to which should go all those who now eall themselves Democrats or Republicans, but who are in realty neither.” Samuel M. Vaullain, president of the Baldwin Locomotive Works, re- plies laconically to the survey ques- tionaire: “I can see no necessity for a third political party.” The same reply is made by George L. Record, friend of Treodore Roose- velt and Buli Moose supporter, and recently a New Jersey senatorial| candidate on the Republican ticket. Record thinks a new political party is not “feasible’’ but will come gra- dually after the fasrion of the crea- tion of the Republican purty. Smith W. Brookhart, new senator from Jowa, agrees. He says: “I do not believe any necessity exists for a new party. WHat I believe shoula |for a defense of his attitude and for and will come is progressive cortrol wi the Republican party.” Like Record, "Senator North Dakota thinks history will re- peat. He says: “No three parties are continuously possible.

CONFERENCE AT CAPITAL IS MAPPING OUT PEACE (Continued from page 1) justment of differences; second, a supplementary convention aiming to discourage the re-election of presi- dents and otherwise to curb revolu- tions; third, the establishment of a permanent tribunal at Cartago, in Costa Rico, comprising one delegate from each state to take action ' ..- garding certain specified controver- es. Although these.'arrangements' had some effect in promoting political stability “in Central ‘America, . their aims were never entirely fulfilled. During the la.st\ fifteen years var- ious political movements have oc. curred.among the five republics most important of which were steps toward a Central American union. This union could not be completed, partly because of the nonparticipa- tion of Nicaragua, and during the last two years there has been a gen- eral cordition of political unrest among the Central Republics. Upon the initiative of Nicaragua, a meting was held last August 20, aboard the U. S. S. Tacoma, in Fon- seca B, between the presidents of Nicaragua, Honduras and Salvador, looking toward the establishment of peaceiul relations between these three countries. The call for the pre- sent conference at Washington is the result of that conference. At the meeting aboard the T'acoma the governments of Guatemaia and Costa Rica were invited to accept| ., ana from Casita sprend the word .he agreement reached there. They replied that such adherence was not necessary as they regarded the treaty of 1907 as still in force and intended to abide by its provisions. This revelation of a unanimous wish for peaceful solution of Central’ American difficulties paved the way for the United States State Depart- ment to issue an invitation for a new conference at Washington, in whicn the former treaties would be revised and enlarged and other important matters discussed. The result was the issuance of an invitation ‘through the American Legations in capitals of the five Cen- | tral American Republics for the con- ference now convened. GOVERNOR CONFERENCE | TO TALKK.

The first of March saw the federal occupation of the garrison at Casita. After a short, decisive engagement the rebels were dispersed into small bands and driven eastward along the boundary line toward Nogales. It was the destiny of Forlorn River, however, never to return to the slow, sleepy tenor ‘®f its former existence. Belding’s predictions came true. That straggling line of home-seekers was but a forerunner of the real invasion of Altar valley. Refugees from Mex- that water and wood and grass and ! land were to be had at Forlorn River; and as if by magic the white tents and red adobe houses sprang up to glisten | Belding was happier than he had been for a long time. He believed that evil days for Forlorn River, along with the apathy and lack of enterprise, were in the past. He hired | a couple of trustworthy Mexicans to | ride the boundary line, and he settied down to think of ranching and irriga- tion and mining projects. Every morn- ing he expected to receive some word | from Sonoyta or Yuma, telling him that Yaqui had guided his party safe- 1y across the desert. Among the many changes coming to pass in Forlorn River were, the install- inz of post office service and the building of a.mescal drinking-house. Belding had worked hard for the post office. but he did net like the idea of a saloon for Forlorn River. Still, that was an Inevitable evil. The Mex- fcans would have mescal. A good many Americans drifted into Forlorn River—miners, cowboys, prospectors, outlaws, and others of nondescript character; and thgse men, of course, made ‘the saloon, which was also an inn, thelr headquarters. Belding, with Carter ahd-other old residents, saw the need of a sheri® for Forlorn River. One morning early in this spring ! month, while Belding was on his way | from the house to the corrals, he saw | Nell running Blanco Jose down the | road at a gait that amazed him. She did not take the turn of the road to | come in by the gate. She put Jose at & four-foot wire femce, and came clattering into the yard. It did not take more than half an | eye for Belding to see that she was . furious. “Nell, what's come off now?” asked Belding. “I'm not golng to tell you,” she re- plied, and started away, leading Jose toward the corral, Belding leisurely followed. She went into the corral, removed Jose’s bridle, and led him to the waterlng- | trough. Belding came up, and with- out saying anything began to unbuckle | road there, and Jose happened to be | ing. The leader, who was that same Jose’s saddle girths. But he ventured'| a look at Nell. The red had gone from her face, and he was surprised fo see her eyes brimming with tears. Most assuredly tbis was not one of Nell's tantrums. While taking off Jose's saddle and hanging it in the shed Belding pondered in his slow way. When he came back to the corral Nell had her face against the bars, and she was crying. He slipped a big arm around her and waited. “Dad. I don’t want you to think me a—a baby any more,” she said. “T've been fnsulted,” With a specific fact to make clear thought in Belding’s mind he was never slow. | “I knew ' something unusual had come off. T guess you'd better tell me.” “Dad, I wIll, it you promise.” “What ?” “Not to mention it to mother, not to pack a gun down there, and never, never tell Dick.” ¢ Belding was silent. 'Seldom did nel make promises readily. “If you don’t promise: PIl never tell." b that's all,”-she ‘declare, firmly. i Belding deliberated s little longer. He knew the girl. | ¥ “\yell, I promise not to tell moth- er,” he said, presently; “and seeing you're here safe and well,/ I guess I Wherever that is. But I ‘iwon’t promise to keep anything from Ibick that per- | haps he ought to know.'® TVel, regaining her com posure, wiped he:r eyes and smoothed back her hair. “The other day, Wednesday,” she began, “I was coming liome, and in ront of that mescal ditinking place there was a crowd.

One of them, the rudest. followed me. He was a big fellow, red-faced, with prom- inent eyes and a bold look. He came up beside me and spoke to me. I ran home. And as I ran I heard his com- panions jeering. “Well, today, just now, when I was riding up the valley road I came upon the same fellows. They had instru- ments and were surveying. Remem- bering Dick, ,and how he always wished for an instrument to help work out his plan for irrigation, I was cer- tainly surprised to see these strangers surveying—and surveying upon Lad- dy’s plot of land.

Specifically the executive asked for appropriations of $3,078,940,331.64, the difference between appropria- tions and-expenditures being attrib- | uted to the fact that congress makes some appropriations which carry :over from ‘year to year. A surplus of $180,969,125 in the government’s financial operations for the next fiscal year, was estimat- ed, as compared with a ‘probable deficit this year of $273,938,712. The total receipts of the govern- ment during the next fiscal < year were estimated at $3,361,812,359 as compared with $3,429,862,959. These estimates were based on no reduct- ion of taxes, and include a back tax collection of appyoximately -$300,- 000,000. a ) Outstanding in the budget is-the appropriation for national: defense whicY ‘totals $546,/433,870. The Army asks $256,522,677 -whioh would provide for a regular-army of 125,000 men and 12,000 officers. The Navy wants $289,433,870 which would support 85,000 men. The apyropriations would maintain the land and sca forces at, their pres- ent strength and are the lowest since the war. Referring to the large amounts which the federal government is con- tributing to the states each year for road building and other projects the President said he was concerned be- cause he felt his policy was causing large increases in state, county and municipal indcbtedness. He made no direct recommendation on this subject, however. He also indicated that he disapproved large expendi- tures for research, improvement and development, ‘which have no business with “the business of the govern- ment.” o et SUBSCRIBE FOR THE PIONEER THOS.
