STRONG FORCE OF MARINES TO BE ON HAND IN
CASE OF TROUBLE At APPROACHING ELECTION

Washington, May 21.-MOre than six hundred
marines will confront Liberal leaders on the
Isthmus Of Panama in case they attempt to
promote riots and revolution at the time Of the
election on June 20. Although the canal zone
is under the Secretary of War. there is indi-
cation that the War Department will have any
troops near the isthmus at the time of the ap-
preaching election. and Secretary Taft must rely
on the Marine Corps to protect the canal zone.
Only two hundred marines on the isthmus
at present. They are in command Of Major
c. G. Long. More than four hundred marines

Guantanamo. and will be within easy call in case
politics becomes stormy in Panama. This large
detachment of marines is in command of Major
Lejeune. The Marblehead, which is now sail
ing southwark down the Mexican coast and is
but few days from the isthmus carries only
a small detachment Of marines. and cannot add
much strength to any land expedition which

may be necessary to quiet the political situation
which is threatening
The zone police force has been strengthened
materially and is so well equipped that It is in
reality a miniature army and is ready for SER
vice at any time. Under the leadership of the
well trained marines. it is believed. the police
force will be able to quell any disturbances
which may arise. The Panama Railroad affords
such excellent transportation facilities that
troops can be hastened to any possible scene Of
trouble in the canal zone without delay This
insures the protection Of all American property
interests.
Secretary Root and Secretary Taft have made
1t clear that they will take a hand in disturb
ances outside of the zone and If the Liberals
begin any movement against the present govern
ment of Panama it will be with full knowledge
that the United States expects to intervene in
disturbances which will delay the canal work
or affect 1t in any way.

COLOMBIA IRRITATED.
INSULTS OF VENEZUELA.
Reyes Uniting Parties-The Cause
of CQstrO's ActiOn.

Mall advices from Caracas confirm the refusal
OF the Venezuelan government to receive Cen
eral Benjamin Herrera, who was sent there by
President Rafael Reyes. as Minister of Colonbi
General Herrera is the third accredited Colom-
bian plenipOtentiary who has been sent from
Caracas without receiving official recognition,
and the affair has stirred afresh the feeling of
enmity between the two republics. which. since
General Reyes became President of Colombia,
have been on friendly terms. 1t is also learned
that the present strained relations have deferred
General Reyes from relinquishing the Presidency,
as he contemplated doing a few months ago. He
has borne calmly President Castro's slight, but
his views are expressed through a close friend
in this city, who says. in Las Novedades" a
Spanish newspaper, that the honor of Colombia
has been assaiIed
Although General Reyes is opposed to war, it
is understood that large number of his mill
tary chiefs and political advisers are anxious to
teach General Castro a forcible lesson in inter
national etiquette. General Reyes has been
gradually uniting the different political elements
in Colombia and has succeeded in bringing
TO his support large section of the Liberal
party The three diplomatic persona non grat9
sent TO Caracas by General Reyes were leaders
of the Liberal party. and Castros treatment Of
them has rallied many of the members OF that
organization around President Reyes.
WhlIe the PRESIDENT does not display openly at
this time any warke tendencies, a statement
made by him some time ago is now recalled,
when he said: Some day will water my horse
at the River Guare" This river flows through
Caracas under the Puent de Hero, a favorite
meeting place in the past for Castro and his
friends.
The feeling in Bogota against Venezuela has
been further embittered by the report there Off
cially reiterated, that President Castro was pre-
pairing for war against Colombia This report
was caused by the recent departure of Castro
from Caracas with part of his army. which he
took to Los Teques. where he is spending his
vacation. The Colombian version Of this move
was that he had taken them to El TaChira for
man9uvres, preparatory to an attempt to seize
San Faustino belonging TO Colombia.
Castro is anxious to possess this strip Of Co
lombian territory. and the refusal of the diplo-
matte ENJOYS from Bogota to agree to an iri-
mediate cession of this strip of land was respon-
sible for the refusal to receive them. San Faus-
tinO was formerly Venezuelan soil but was
awarded to Colombia by the King OF Spain, who
acted as arbitrator in land dispute between the
two countries, although Colombia did not claim
It. Castro seeks it back now to enable him TO
extend the railroad line running from Ell En-
cOntrado to La Fria
Colombia is willing 10 have the matter ad-
justed by diplomatic negotiation. while Castro
insists on an unconditional surrender OF San
Faustino before he will receive minister from
Colombia

we would scarcely have the heart to

Bits for Horses.-A correspondent
OF an English periodical gives sugges-
tons about biting horses which de-
serves consideration:
The rule in biting horses should al

Of farm labor to which the agricultural
motor was introduced and at which it
made it's initial reputation, says a
writer in the Technical World Steam

burrows were to be nine inches wide
and six inches Deep In doing the
work nine horses, three to a plow,
with three drivers and three boys, did
the work at total cost of $S.25, or
at the rate of $3.68 an acre. By
steam power the total cost Of blowing
the same area amounted to $3.50, or
at $40S an acre, and with the gasoline
motor the cost totaled $4.44, or at

Farmer says:
Feeding Work Horses In bul1e-
tin recently published by the Wisconsin
Experiment Station, there appeared a
contribution on the above subject from
J. Z. McLay, of GAINESVILLE, Wis.
Among other things, Mr. McLay says

cessful in displacing some horses in
farm work they can never displace all
horses. On very steep, rough lands,
on stony land and among the stumps
they would be impossible; but their
field of usefulness is much more re-
stricted than these words indicate
They can never hope to replace the
horse in any considerable measure
even on the smoothest plains. Their
general use for such purposes would
send the price of both gasoline and
alcohol to prohibitive figures.
There is no source Of power appl1-
cable to general farm work that can
begin to compare with the horse and
the mule After the coal, the gas and
the oil are all gone the horse will still
be here, living on the energy that the
sun stores up in grass and cereal and
expending that energy in useful work
on the farm Coal is but the energy
Of the SUN stored up ages ago, but
the sun is perennially storing energy
in the plants of the field, energy that
is transmitted into actual work in the
chemistry Of the living animal; and as
long as the sun shines and the sea-
sons come and go this same energy
will be forthcoming and will be utiliz-
ed in the most wonderful Of all me-
chanisms-the mechanism Of the liv-

Transforming the storedup energy OF
vegetation into actual work, the horse
stands high andwill ever do so.
We may Danish from our thoughts
therefore, the idea that The days OF
the horse are numbered. No matter
how wonderful and how useful the
new engines and motors may be they
cannot displace the horse. Time is
on his side They cannot defeat him
They are not his serious competitors
The horse will stay.
