In the northernmost and CC&tral part of New Mexico, Just across the Colorado line, is the small town of Tlerra Amarilla. There are •boat COO people living there, mostly Of Spanish birth, and among them a •ery, very large portion who can legitimately qualify on a $50,000 ; bond. "They ha*p made,'vid are still mfektflg, a great deal of money in sheep and wool, and are Quite happy without alectric lights, aatos or sidewalks. If yon are ever fortunate enough to be invited to visit one of these families, no donbt you will go In a kindly, 'tolerant spirit and come away please •»tly amazed. They are the very heart and soul of hospitality and welcome a stranger with a sincere enthusiasm that makes vooe ashamed of the cold-blooded. 1 Iftaghty politeness of an American. They Are Americans. And that calls to mind the dignified TCjolnder of one of these citizens upon being questioned as to where his sympathies were in our trouble with Mexico-- with the Americans or the Mexicans. His terse reply, "I am an American," w«8 sufficient Considering that* Marcely any of the inhabitants are educated, according to the average standard, that waa a remarkable repjjy.

If there are streets, and b»ck door to tfce front or side of a neighbor. No lights on the street make navigation at night a risk, and no sidewalks of any kind add to the excitement. In the houses are piled hit or miss the most expensive of furnishings, as the big catalogue houses of the East know quite well that it pays to advertise where there Is money, and no nearby merchants to beguile with window displays. A fine kitchen cabinet may be right beside the phonograph with its dozens and dozens of records, mostly stringed and operatic music, and almost invariably the houses* are clean as scouring with soap and water can make them.

They also serve as a strop, after the razor baa beea dipped in the basin of Jellified conglomerate suds. In the stores, which one and all carry enormous stocks for ao email a place, you will be confronted with an odor, from the improperly cured hundreds of sheepskins piled along with the bright colored silks and shawls and artificial flowers, appeallngly displayed for the edification of the feminine residents.

EXPECT FIGHT ON REPEAL War Tlmea Election Act Repeal la Op- ' poaed--Educational Test May Be Made to Disfranchise Many of Teuton Origin. Toronto.--Despite the approach of normal peace when there will be no more "enemies," the alien enemy question Is still far from settled in Canada. Controversy surges around two points; first: Is the alien enemy to be allowed to work? and, second: Is he to be allowed to vote? When the war waa on the alien eft- NEW USE FOUND FOR POISON GAS ; - Poison gas is now being put to a good use in England. The gas Is Inejected into rat holes by means of a rubber tube. Most of the rats are killed tbderground, but .any which come out are dazed and easily struck down., emy worked. There were many objections to it, but labor was so scarce that the alien enemy who could work was rarely interfered with. And he made big wages. Now labor Is not so scarce, and the alieq enemy's Job Is more precarious. It Is not employers who are Interfering with him, nor Is it government authority. Pressure comes from the returned soldiers. When their verbal protests get no results or produce only formal assurances, which they know to be insincere, they have on. occasion raided the factory, sometimes with surprising results. Then the alien enemy la really out of a Job. As to the vote, the alien enemy lost his privilege during the war. Now the fight is as to whether It will be given back to him. The war times election act was based on the ground that the man who was not eligible to fight If needed wasn't eligible to vote, a rough and ready rule which served a purpose and it deliberately disfranchised all parsons of alien enemy origin whether they had Canadian citizenship or not. oj pepedxa sum jdb sjqj jo t«ada» immediately follow the close of the war, but now the government Is not anxious to refranchise a large voting population which Is not likely to support the government that originally disfranchised it. The parties are lining up for a real old-time party scrap on the issue. The fight will come in parliament on the introduction of the franchise act promised for an early date. One proposal Is that an educational test will be framed which will have the effect of disfranchising large numbers of former Canadian citizens of enemy origin. Even If they get the vote back many of the alien enemies are going to be ont of a job. And they would infinitely prefer wartime conditions when they had no vote but had a good job. Not many Oerman-born are affected, but there are several hundred thousand natives of the former Austrian empire in Canada. These cause the problem. .. Doesn't Favor Argument.

Eight -nations are now trying to finance the road temporarily, without waiting for formal recognition of the Kolchak government at Omsk. Present indications are that recognition must come before financial aid on this scale can be extended. The interallied railway commission Mt Vladivostok has made strong repre- --Hlientations to each of the eight countries, urging the making available immediately of this amount of money in the form of credits, so that the system from Vladivostok to the Ural mountains may be put In working order. The United States, Great Britain, France, Italy, Czecho-Slovakla. Japan, China and Russia are the coun* tries represented on the railway commission. Italy, the Czecho-Slo^ vak republic, China and Russia are willing to accept their share of the responsibility for the loan, but cannot supply funds or credits, as everything they have they need for their own people. France, too, needs all her resources. Japan could furnish both cash and credit if the other allies would permit her to assume the entire burden. Oi^at Britain and the United States are each in a position to arrange the necessary credits, but the bankers of these two countries Insist upon having a tangible government back of the loan as a guarantee. The Omsk government is considered stable enough by the bankers to warrant the but until actual recognition is accorded the status and responsibility of the government are In doubt TAXES CAUSE PENNY FAMINE Mints Begin Making 2,000,000 One- .
