lures are blocked by the refusal Of
Pima Guerrero, insurgent leader in Pr
mar del Rio province, to enter into any
arrangement for an armistice.
Guerera's answer to the govern
ment's announcement of its readiness
to grant a ten days armistice is the
blowing up of two bridges on the
Western railway, the cutting of railway
communication beyond Pinar del Rio
City and an attack ON San Juan de
Martinez. 1t is believed that San
Juan de Martinez is in the hands of
the tnsurgent, and that the garrison Of
100 government recruits and a small
force OF mounted rural guards have
been defeated or captured.
Guerrero has formally notified Gen
eral MenocPS emissary that he would
not accept the armist1ce, and that he
would notify the revolutionary COM
mittee in Havana that he would not
cease hostilities unless the govern
ment promised to annul the elections
OF last December. Another commit
tee is going to Pinar del Rio In an en-
deavor to persuade Guerara to come
to Havana ana treat for peace.
All regard the blowing up Of an
English company's railroad bridges
as serious matter, and likely to In

Britain, and at least an interrogation

Some time since one of the patrons on
rural route seven from the Owosso office
complained to the department that the
carrier had not made his delivery for
three days. An investigation showed
that it was almost an impossibility for
the carrier to get over all the route ow-
ing to the impossible condition of GER
tain parts of the road. An order was
received this week requiring the names
of the highway commissioner and tie
several pathmasters to be forwarded to
the department and notices will be sent
them that unless the road is put in con-
dition so that the same conditions will
not prevail another spring that service
will be withdrawn from a part of this
route. This may be hardship on some
of the patrons who live on roads which
are kept in good condition but to reach
whom the carrier has to go over the
poorly kept roads. 1t is simply up to
these people and others to insist upon
highway work being done by every tax
payer and done in an honest manner.
The poor roads in this case are in the
township of New Haven.

able of the state political gatherings,
and the state central committees action
in selecting him is invariably heartily
Endorsed. This selection was made en-
tirely without Mr.. Fordney's previous
knowledge and the credit for his recog-
milton is largely due to the clever work
of the Saginaw delegation who went to
the committee meeting with Mr.. Hill.

Gods requirements are proportioned
to our cndOwments. If lie give five
talents he requires ten. If he give but
one talent he requires but two. Thus
God is altogether fair and Just. He
does not require the one talent man to
make the same return as the five talent
man. Gods requirements are proper
toned to our talents. God is not like
the Egyptians. He does not require
"bricis without straw" But, having
supplied the straw, he does require
bricks-that is, the possession Of talent
imposes obligation. Ability Justties ac-
countabiity. The number of our tai
ents determines the measure Of our
responsibility. Thus the parable teaches
us that we are not required to do what
we would like to do, but what we can
do. And how important is this lesson.
