of the complicated situation subor-

big reason for the mobilization of
troops in Texas and the threatened in
yasion and occupation of Mexico.
The close personal attendance of the
administration with the interests con-
trolling the vast investments led
forcibly to this conclusion in the
minds of many disinterested observers
of the situation.
Henry w. Taft, the presidents S

business in northern Mexico. The

The most dramatic feature of to-

former priest, but now accused with
Erico Alfano and the other Camor-

clio and his wife, entered the court
room. which is the old San francesca
church.
Vitozzi once officiated as priest in
this church and he was completely
overcome when he neared the place
where the altar stood where he had
once worn his official robes. Several
times he broke down and wept. One
of the first bits of evidence to be pro-
duced was q report concerning AL

CITY Authorities Stop Sale of Golfers

The sale of the Fourth of July num-
ber of Golfers Weekly was stopped in
number of cities in the United States
last week. The sale was stopped in
Portland. The reason given by the
authorities was, that the title page
carried the American flag, flung over
the wide wings of an aeroplane, and
the name of the magazine was in part
printed over the flag. The page aiso
bore cartoon of an eagle and bird
man which encroached on the flag, and
said to be also in violation of the law,
which is intended to keep the flag
clear from all printing and cartoons.
