throughout the republic Of Panama, and
IL is intended IL station at most OF
these an armed guard OF ten or fifteen

At some places. this precaution will be
unnecessary because Of the extreme
sentiment existing there in favor Of one
side or the other.
If trouble comes, ii is expected to first
break out IN the interior, rather than in
the towns of Panama and Colon. II Is
believed that the presence of American
marines, sailors. or soldiers at these
remote points will have a good effect

but in assuring the people that the
election will be a fair one and that
their votes will be properly counted.
