CENTRAL AMERICANS.
They Are Tired of the Military Rule
of Robbers.

OF NODbers.
City OF Mexico, October "a gentlema,
from Guatemala says decent people
throughout Central America are tired OF
the rule OF military robbers who have for
so many years been plundering the public.
The best people In those countries have
refrained from participating in political
affairs knowing that they would become
Immediately the object OF hostility on the
part Of the opposite party. They have
patiently submitted to forced loans and
eSorbitant taxes and have seen succes-
sion OF bandits enrich themselves IN office
and are now witnessing general political
upheavaI with no prospects except that
Of change OF masters. For these reasons
there is a growing feeling In Central
america such as has long existed in Guate-
maia Tor annexation to the United states.
The gentleman says. ''It is impossibie
TO resist the conviction that II Is now the
duty az the United States government 10
give our people protection from robber
rule. We have been exploited TIL patience
ceases TO be a virtue. There are millions
OF dollars Of American capital invested
