Perez is still in jail. Major William Elliott, depot quartermaster here, has no desire to feed th hungry natives of Chihuahua along the line of the Mexican Central. For that reason he will take no chances with unguarded shipments by railroad under Carranza's concession of yesterday. He is going1, right on forwarding hundreds of tons of provisions daily to Columbus to be sent in from there by motor truck trains.

S. P. Rowland has found time to compile while he works early and late at his 1916 slogan, "Every school a standard school." Leads in Standard Schools. The coveted word "Standard" is above more schools in this county than anywhere else, and though Superintendent Rowland admits that the wording under the picture of North Reno, No.

It is reported that German scientists have successfully made artificial rubber which can be used satisfactorily for automobile tires. VILLA HAS EXECUTED CARR AN A GARRISON.

EL. PASO, March 30. Francisco Villa captured and executed the Carranza garrison at Guerrero, consisting of 172 men, some time during the last eventy-two hours. This report was received at General Funs-ton's headquarters in San Antonio tonight. It is partly confirmed by state department officials here.

The information received officially at El Paso merely tells that the Guerrero garrison was captured. Nothing is known of the fate of the Carran-zistas. Tonight Villa is reported to be at the Geronimo ranch. This is about thirty-two miles northeast of Guerrero, near the headwaters of the Santa Maria river. Several detachments of United States troops, believed to be Colonel George Dodd's in command, are believed to be within thirty miles of the place where Villa is located.

McBride talked with the laundry foremen, Mrs. Chalkley and Miss Bresette gathered the data on formal question lists used by the new labor commission for its work, and chatted with the workers as to conditions under which they live and work. Labor Hours Vital Question "The question of hours is even more vital in Kansas than the wage question," says Miss Bresette, and Mrs. Chalkley, to whom the work is new and who is doing it the fine and thorough conscientiousness that marks everything she does, substantiates the secretary of the commission in the remark "for too long hours bring on fatigue poison and inevitably spoil efficiency. I have had one man who used to have girls sit at tables and break eggs on a twelve hour shift say that they do the work now with greater satisfaction in an eight hour day because they are more rested when they come to it and can work with greater speed.

Thy never get rested over the too long hour shift. This man gives two rest periods besides. Rush Orders Work Hardships "We have had a fine attendance here, both of employers and employes, and hope for much good. Please lay emphasis on the fact that when the laundries beg that work be sent early, they have the best interests of their workers at heart, for then they can do away with those dreadful rush orders that mean long overtime work, to get them out." "Middle" Board Next Week The laundrymen who install even the most up to date equipment and who use the kindest measures toward their employes and here they have many kindly systems still admit that there are conditions hard to better. The industrial commission has two boards, the state, the "middle board," made up cf three laundry employers and three employes, E.

V. Johnson of Wichita Domestic laundry, U. G. Bald-erston of Dodge City and Charles Matthews of Topeka Manual, are the employers and Miss Etha R. McKel-vey of this city, Miss Mary Riley of Pittsburg and Mrs.

Emma Harding of Kansas City are the employe members. The middle board will meet next week and its tasty wU be to make Kansas as wise in her use of her employed people in laundries as the government is in its aims for ef-fectivenes or as railroads big business offices are.

The order grew out of trie test case which was argued, as to the interpretation of the fire regulations pertaining to frame buildings within certain prescribed districts. Westenhaver and Nelson were arrested on Wednesday by the police in order that the case might be tested. The house has been resting on its trucks across the sidewalk since the work of moving it was stopped by national, state, county and school officers, school news and data, standard school requirements, courses of study William Farnum in the new lines, sewing, handicraft, home credit work and so on.

Read Gazette Wantada Read Gasette WantaOa. fit To the Voters of Hutchinson On next Tuesday, April 4, you will choose your mayor for next year. Many of you are newcomers to the growing city of Hutchinson, and desire to vote for the man who stands for your views on city matters.

Others among you are old residents, discussing the desirability of again voting for the present administration. This ad is published because we desire lo say certain things to each of 3'ou. There are two candidates for Mayor. Both DO NOT stand for the same things indeed, the line between the two is very plainly marked. The classes of people who are openly supporting each candidate make it easy to understand the lineup, in spite of the fact that there has been but little publicity during the campaign.

Who is Dr. F. W. Cook? Dr. F.

W. Cook, candidate of the business men, rank and file voters, and the church people Hitchinson, is the present mayor. Has lived in Hutchinson about 30 years, has been successful in business, is a property owner and taxpayer, officer in the First Baptist church, for many years its Sunday School superintendent. Has always stood for law and order. A persistent enforcer of the law.

Two years ago Dr. Cook was asked to run for mayor by a mass meeting of business men, this action being endorsed by the Inter-Church Federation and Ministerial Union, and many leading citizens. One year ago these same people endorsed his administration because he had made good. His second year's service to the city the same forces are working for his re-election next Tuesday. Who is Endorsing Cook? ou voters the newcomers especially, will want to know who is endorsing Cook for Mayor now.

More of the business men of the city are for him than ever before. Business men who opposed him two years ago and one year ago frankly state that Cook has made such a satisfactory mayor that they want him re-elected. The pastors of Hutchinson churches are for Cook, to a man. Call your pastor up, and ask him if he is for Cook. The old ever fighting crowd of the W.

C. T. U. is still for Cook. Call up Mrs.

M. C. Gillette, Mrs. C. W.

Hill, Mrs. Kate Brooks, Mrs. W. R. Tedrick and others, and ask them who they are supporting for mayor.

Leading workers in all churches are for Cook. A host of other citizens, men and women, are for Cook for another term. The names undersigned represent many lines of business, various churches, different parts of the city, and are but a few of the active supporters of the re-election of our splendid Mayor. What Has Cook Done? Cook has enforced the laws. The city is the cleanest morally it has ever been.

Many of the old time violators have quit or have moved away. Many have been punished, and these are the originators of the kick against Cook and his efficient police department. The stories these convicted offenders tell of the bad moral condition of the city are enough to make a horse laugh yet they are believed as true by some people who want the city kept clean, and believed because they have not investigated the facts. Cook has planned and secured greater efficiency in every city department. Economy in the spending of citv revenues has been the rule.

Many decided savings can be shown. The moral tone of the city has been raised. Public improvements have been made at the lowest cost. Our public contract work has been so economically done that other cities have been sending for our city engineer to explain how we get good brick paving and other work for so low a price. The Cook administration has proven the fact that we can have a clean moral city, practical efficiency and economy in public works, and can still be a progressive city, expanding and growing each year, the center of observation and the envy of the entire western country.

Hutchinson has not halted a step in her upward growth, and is getting her wind better with each year. Here is the Main Issue! The main issue in the present campaign is this: Does Hutchinson want to keep going forward, or does she want to go backward? The opponents of the Cook ticket have thrown out the challenge that there has been too much public improvement, too much expanding, too many white way lights, too much boosting for That the slight increase in taxes is an awful thing, and that the city must "pull in its horns." A leading opponent says "Cook is too much of a booster" Shall we elect a new administration which will stop this construction work, stop the employment of this labor, to cut taxes a little, or shall we re-elect Cook and keep on growing, boosting Hutchinson? We are now the 4th city in Kansas. Do we want to go back? We are trying to build up and expand to keep pace with cur needs. Shall we stoo? Prosperity is apparent all over the nation. Business is crood in prac-ticallv all business lines.

Shall Hutchinson do without her share of this prosperity? The present plan of progress and improvement was adopted at the menifest wish of a the pefcnle. We believe they want it continued. Vote for Cook! We are for Cook for re-election, first, last and all the time. We believe his re-election is for the Charles S. Odladay R.
