The Brattleboro reformer. (Brattleboro, Vt.) 1907-1912, 1907-06-28

The possibility of serious trouble in
Central America growing out of the
disturbed conditions incidental to the
alleged ambition of President Zelaya
of Nicaragua to form a union of Cen
trail American states, has caused the
administration to dispatch the fine new
cruiser Milwaukee to that region. Or
ders for her to proceed forthwith from
the Mare Island navy yard, California
went forward from the navy depart
ment Tuesday. The vessels is in com
mand of Commander Charles A. Cove
and she will go to La Union, San Sal
vador. The stay of the Milwaukee in
Central American waters is problem
atical and will in measure depend
upon the conditions that develop. She
goes Ostensibly "for the protection of
American interests which are threat
ened because of the situation as it now
exists. The cruiser ST. Louis, now on
her way to a Brazilian port. is en- route
to the Pacific coast and will arrive in
Central American waters in about two
months. 1t may be that she will re-
lieve the Milwaukee in the event that
the administration decides to have that
vessel return north.

The new village fire horses are rangy
creatures and have already demon
strated their ability 10 run like ante
l6pes, but it is doubtful how long they
will be able to show such a gait if they
are given no more strenuous exercise
than their predecessors received
What the new horses need is a stiff
gallop every morning; not merely a
mild constitutional at a gait hardly
faster than that adopted by the broad
backed circus equine that carries the
premier lady bareback rider around
the ring. Moreover, it would be a good
plan if the daily itinerary included
some other trip aside from up Main
street to Wells fountain and return.
Otherwise it will be extremely difficult
in a little while to make the horses
turn down Main street hill in case an
alarm comes in from that quarter.
