Mexican Herald Suggests Causes of
 Central American Disturbances.
 Mexico City, July 15.-The Mexican Herald suggests that the only feasible plan for permanently pacifying Cen tral America and preserving orderly and peaceable residents. both native and foreign, in those countries from the rule of despotic leaders whose sole aim is to enrich themselves, is to place the five little republics under pro- tectorate with Mexico and the United States co-operating.
 The Herald declares that there Is little real freedom in Central Ameri- ca for these people who most need the protection of wise and progressive rul- CTS. Central Americans who are desir- ous of living at peace and with hope to make their way in the world are op- pressed by bad government, forced loans and all the evils of tyranny.

THE BOND PROPOSITION.

+. There is at present exactly the
sum of 81, 649.99 in cash in the
sinking fund of the city which is
not invested in securities. This
sinking fund was levied for the
purpose of reducing the bonded
debt of the city, not specifically
for paying the water and light
bonds as is being misrepresented.
These funds are available tor pay
ing the first bonds that become
due. There is no legal objection
nor can there be any other valid
objection against utilizing $4,000
of this money for paying the per-
manent improvement revolving
fund bonds, if issued.
The keeping of this revolving
fund intact for the perpetual use
of the city in making street i'm
provements will be as sacred"
a requirement as any imposed
upon the city government. Moth
ing will be paid out of this fund
except such amounts as will come
back to the city by assessments
to abutting property. The city's
portion of improvements made
will have to come from the gen.
eral fund.
Since the present administra-
tion come to power the sinking
fund has been properly cared for.
Before it was not properly cared
for in spite of it's: 'tsacredness. I"
No one who wishes to promote
the welfare of the city will block
the setting aside of this fund for
facilitating street improvement
Spiteful misrepresentation are
being used to defeat the bond
proposition, but any fairminded
citizen can easily satisfy himself
that it will be to the best inter-
ests of the city to vote these
bonds.

WHY CANDlDATE2..

Why does Tallman wish to take
the desperate chances to become
an alderman in the First ward?
He would have the liquor element
believe that he is incensed that
no liquor licenses we're granted.
by the last council and he wishes
to vindicate their particular idea
of what constitutes the popular
will. While there is no doubt
that Tallman does stand for legal:
lied whiskey, there is further
no doubt that there are deeper
motives underlying his sudden
ambition to become alderman.
The. telephone question will come
up for settlement during the
term of the alderman to be elect
ed in the First ward, and Tall.
man has expressed himself as.
very much desiring that the city.
not meddle with the telephone
business for at least five years
more. What business has a
person directly interested in q
question to be determined By the.

trust where his private interests
