TO CANDY
OF INCORPORATION
FILED FOR RAILROAD FROM
SALEM VIA sHYERTON AND
MOLALLA TO CANBY.

The filing OF articles Of incorpora-
ton with the Secretary of State Oh
colt by the capby-Mollala Railway
company today has revived in rail-
road circles the statement made
some time ago that the Southern Pc
cl1e before the summer was over,
would build railroad line from here
via Silverton, and passing through
Mollala connecting with its main
line at Candy.
The capitalization of the company
Is placed at 100000 and the inoor-
porators are NJ J. Lee, A. o. Echols
and o. M. Lee The principal office
is Portland
About month ago railroad men
made the statement that the South
ern Pacific would not only build
line from here via Silverton, and Mol
lala connecting with its main line at
Candy. but that It would also build
a line down the river connecting
with It's west side line at Dayton and
thereby secure an electric route to
Portland which would be only five
miles longer than the Oregon Elec-
tric, but which would abound in far
more scenic effects
Railroad men now maintain that
the incorporation Is brought into ex-
istence for the purpose of building
this branch line tapping the terri
tory surrounding these towns, and
that 1t will not be long before the an
nouncement will be made that the
line down the river will also be built.

Mexico City, March Thirty
thousand men, including trained SOL
diers, citizens and foreigners, are or
ganizing here today to resist the rebel
forces under General Pascula Orozco,
who are expected to attack the capi-
tai early next week. Many Americans
will aid the federal troops. The drill
ing Of the foreign recruits is being su-
perintended by trusted officers Of the
MaderO forces.
President Madero himself will prob
ably command the force that will de-
fend Mexico City against the rebel at
tack, It is certain that the capital will
not capitulate without terrific strug-
gle. Three thousand federal soldiers
have been called from the south and
ordered to intercept the union Of rebel
forces under Generals orozco and sa-
pata.
0rozco expects to arrive within
striking distance OF Mexico City by
Tuesday. His army numbers about
5000. sapata is due about Friday and
the rebels plan to unite and advance
on the capital city early Saturday
morning. 49,
A force Of federal troops has been
ordered to Saltillo, where they will at
tempt to engage General orozco in bat
tie. If the rebels are decisively beat
en-, it is believed, that the attack plan
ned on the capital may be delayed.
More than 500 Americans have left
here within the last three days.
Heavy machine guns have been placed
at points Of vantage, and the rebel ad-
vance will be met by terrific fire
Sentiment is growing steadily all
over the republic for Porfirio Diaz
who less than year ago was the most
unpopular man in the country. In the
event of Madero's overthrow 1t is be-
lieved that Felix Dlaz, nephew OF

Washington, March Whether the
United States will intervene in Mexi-
co probably will be determined before
the end of the week. Preparations for
American invasion are complete, and
all that is necessary to set 10000
troops in motion and Quell the present

is authorization by congress.
President Taft and Secretary OF
War Stimson today conferred regard
ing the situation. It is understood
that England, Germany and France
are insisting that immediate action by
the United States be taken ln Mexico,

will ask congress at once for permis-

The situation is further complicat-

changes Just announced by Madero
show that he is trying to unite the

tlon will end before the United States
can interfere. With this end in view,
