removal the unsightly "dunps" that
disfigured the newly made Romano

Mexican soldiers and the sheriff's off,

who consider that war 10 quite immi-
nent. The facts show that an officer Of
the Mexican army and . detachment OF
his troops passed over the Rio Grands to
American soil by false pretences, con-
cealing their real object to arrest q de-
serter from the Mexican army. They
found their man, treated him brutality
and, 10 violation OF the treaty, endeav-
ored to force the deserter across the
water dividing line Of the two countries
When the Maverick county officers In

Deputy Sheriff Shad White, but the In
jury and insult was wiped out with
Mexican blood, for Texas officers will do
their duty. The matter has been report
ed to Secretary BAyard and Governor
Ross, who have the question In hand I,
and 1t is quite possible that diplomacy
may arrange the difficulty upon a
friendly basis, but there is no der ling
the fact that the question is q serious
