Jf real war baa coma between the
I'nltotl States and Mexico the ques
lion arlsee: How can that war best
be conducted? That la a question
of national or grand strstegy. To
answer we muat first consider the
objects and resources of the com
bstanta.
It may b« said that we havs three
posalble lines of action. First, WE
CAN ACT ON MEXICO ECONOM
ICALLV BY CLOSING HER UP BY
SEA AND LAND. Thla couraa la a

The clear nets and uniform
ity of your typewritten letter*
is a factor of incalculable im
portance to your bu»ines#~~
no one can estimate the value
of a clear, clean cut, fine
appearing typewritten letter as
compared to a smudgy and
unevenly written one. Juat
this difference may mean the
gain or loss of an immensely
profitable customer —just this
difference between a Paragon
Ribbon and juit any typewriter
ribbon.
Paragon Ribbon* are
made of the most perfect
and uniform material*
and by the most exact
and modern process.
Each ribbon, for the char
acter of work for which it is
made, is precisely like every
other Paragon Ribbon made
for that particular purpose.
This means that when you
have selected a particular kind
of Paragon Ribbon suited to
your particular work you are
always able to get that partic
ular kind of Paragon Ribbon
—maintaining the uniformity
of your typewriting year after
year.
There it a Paragon
Ribbon especially de
vised lor every conceiv
able typewriting purpose
—and there is a Remington
representative ready to
confer with vou concern
ing ribbons best adapted
to fulfill the requirement
of your office.

the Intereata of other nations, and
undealrable In view of limiting our
freedom of action In case of Inter
national complications.

see ma to point to a rapid advance
on the City of Meilco, following
the cloalng of the Mexican porta

The world looks brighter for
Leroy B. Thorpe.
Thorpe Is the paralytic, you re
member, who has been at the county
hospital for nve years, and who
says l>r. Richardson's two huskies
Jum|>ed on him and choked him be

Several Seattle women have been
Interested In Thorpe's case.
Mrs. W. S. lleardsley has been
conducting a campaign In his Inter

Mrs. E. Q. Hrowne and members of
a benevolent committee has finally
completed a deal for a little store

Is to use. *
CULLOM LEAVES
SURPRISE PARTY
WASHINGTON, April 21.—Were
It not for the ancient motto that
of the dead nothing but praise
shsll be spoken, It might be In or
der to allude to the fact that the
estate of the late Shelby M. Cullom
proved to be more than 1100,000,
an amazement to his many friends
and aupporters, since the old chap
haa for yeara run for office and
held office on the platform, "he Is
poor and honest and he needs the
money,"
INJURED BY TREE,
GIRL IS ARRESTED
MINNEAPOLIS. Minn., April 29.
—Injury, arrest. Imprisonment and
deportation were the rewards that
caine to Elsie Fletcher, a Minneap
olis girl, who tried to be a man In
Canada.
llnsbie to get work here she
went to a lumber camp near Port
Arthur, Canada.
She entered It as an ordinary
laborer, having donned a woods
man'a suit. Tall, strong and of
heavy voice, she played the part
well and was chopping her way to
a bank account when she was In
jured by a falling tree. Then her
deception was discovered.
After her Injuries were treated
she wns taken to Port Arthur, ac
cused of masquerading, and sen
tenced to three months In Jail. She
served the term, was rearrested
and deported.
HOW ABOUT OTHERS?
LONDON. —There are 56,000 tee
totaller* In the Hrltlsh regular
army, according to latest statistics,
some reflmenta containing aa many
as 700.
On a small scale the brilliancy of
our general and his army on that
oocaalon has rarely been aurpasssd.
ASSUMING A LOWER STAND
ARD OF ACCOMPLISHMENT AND
A STRONOER RESISTANCE. WE
COULD PROBABLY ATTAIN OUR
OOAL WITH A FORCE OF 100,000
MEN.
Of thase one-hslf or more would
be required to hold the 263 miles
of rail bsck to Vara Crut and to fill
the waatage In the field force at the
front, which would probably have
to be kept up to 40.000 men.
It doea not seem likely from what
haa recently occurred In Mexico
that Huerta. under the beat condi
tions. could place more than 25,000
men In the field.
Although the Mexican field piece
la good, we could probably beet
them In bowltsere and long range
guns
Making every allowance for
paeaee that He between Vera Crus
and Mexico Cltr. and for the action
of Irregulars. It aeema pr.-tty cer
tain that a minimum of 40.000 men
at the actual fmnL HKAVII.Y sup

PI,IBS, could go through froin the
coast In a few weeks.
He will sell notions, tobacco and
the like aa fortune permits him to
enlarge his stock.
The first month's rent has been
provided. The two women who are
dolna this deed of kindness want
more money or goods to help Thorpe
get started.

COUNCIL PASSES
UP NEW PROFFER
OF RENTON LINE
The cltj utilities committee of
the council, by unanlmoua vote, has
turned down the proposition to take
over the Renton line on a baala of
paying 26 por cent of the cross re
ceipts for 16 years.
Thla offer had been submitted to
Mayor QUI by Attorney Harold Pres
ton. representing the receivers of
the line.
Ar-cordlnn to the committer, the
total payment would amount to
about 11,000,000 for a line that wan
worth only one-third of that. The
council will demand common uaer
rights on the Renton line ao aa to
make connection between Division
A and the I.«ke Burlen Una.
COUNCIL TURNS
DOWN HEBB SITE
AT A MILLION
Without much ado the city utili
ties committee of the council Tues
day voted to reject the offer of the
Hebb power site for $1,000 000. The
proposition, the councllmen de
clared, was In no wise a new one,
and had heretofore been sufficient
ly discussed and disposed of.
The Chamber of Commern* wont a
communication protecting against
resubmitting the Cushman power
alte transfer of bonda at the charter
election. Aa there had been no In
tention of so doing, the council will
comply with the chamber's request.
