About thirty years ago the meii

There has been an earnest cffor;
by some of the property owners sur

driveway around that lake also, ami
il is TO be most sincerely hoped that
those opposing this movement may at
some future time mot too far dis

and help to make this lake also one

Lake Mirror is SO beautifully stu

one might enjoy its gentle brc"zrs

there. having spent as much as a few
months in Lakeland, but has ad-

an early visit from revolutionary bands,
there is one section that pays no atten-
ton to the outbreaks. 1t is down on
the southern end Of Lower California,
where the men and women wear shoes
and where they are most particular
about their attire in every regard.
La Paz (the peace is the name OF the
principal town down there, and II IS
connected with Lazatlan by steamer
line Palm trees garce the harbor and
the climate IS tropical WarermelOnS
ripel there during the month of March
and the people generally enjoy life.
There are 5000 or 1000 souls In that
town and the reason they have taken
no interest in the present revolution is
not because they are unacquainted with
conditions in other parts of the repub-
lie 1t is because they are satisfied
with conditions IN their own Even
during the Nadero revolution. while
nearly all the republic was in turmoil,
this section was going peacefully about
its business and worrying not one whit
