MFxICO's ELTCTION FARCICAL.

TIE farcca election held in Mexico yesterday, in
which only a very small fraction of the
eligible voters participated, results in practically
nothing Of a remedial nature. It is not thought
enough votes were cast to bring about the con-
stit..'o-el election Of President II that be true,
Huersa win continue provisional President or die
ator unless his political opponents muster sufficient
strength to drive him Office just he and Cen
erai Felix Diaz ousted Francisco Madero from the
presidency to meet death at the hands Of their fol-
lowers
Il seems to be accepted fact that Huerta is de-
termined to continue at head of the so-called re-
public south Of the Rio Grande Nothing short Of
physical force the threatened application of it by
a power he fears. will constrain him to retire or to
sanction free untrammeled elections which might
bring about his retirement by constitutional pro-
cess.
The indications that farcical election held
yesterday and the announcement made that Huerta
will increase the standing army from s. 600 $780,,
900 only viii crystalline still further Mexican
sentiment against him give strength to the Con-
stituuonalists and others who fighting to depose
him
Il had been hoped by soiaa credulous persons that
the most important result Of yesterdays election
would be to bring peace 20 Mexico through consti-
tutional and internal process. Even the most san
euine of such persons must feel that those hopes
rested upon very unstable foundation and that the
great national travail through which Mexico has
been r-ssng since Porhrio Diaz deposed has not
vet reached its end Huerta longer is provisional
President He is an avowed dictator who is deter
mined to buttress his dictators hip by mar- force
and to place himself his official acts outside the
restrictive scope OF the Mexican constitution.

lard, master of ceremonies, in full otfi-
cial dress, wearing more decorations
than any one else in France. This
impressive parsonage, a legacy of for
mer Presidents has the stature and
imposing figure of a drum major. He
left out no decorative detail of his
costume, and the whole arrangement
found its climax in the three-cornered
hat, making a fine effect when he goes
in protocolar state to fetch to the
Elysee Palace a new ambassador.
Projects and sub-prefects. Mayors
and deputy mayors, girt with tri-col-
ored scarfs, were brought into the cor
tege in their proper place. Not to
omit the little girls, in pink, in pale
blue, and in white, who offered flowers
and were kissed in return. Then-a
new feature-there were big girls
wearing the quaint coiffures Of their
localities. A set-off against the inhos-
pitable retirement of the town council
of Limoges to mark its displeasure at
the new three-year military law and
the rumored Mac -Mahonism" ii. e.
dictatorialism) of the Presidents in
tentions was the singing Of a cantata
in honor Of the President by monster
chorus OF the porcelain factory girls,
lasses of the cabaret, and chorus girls
from the Riberac and Bordeaux The
atres.
Most of the girls we're plain. There
were. however some good voices.
Those few that had fine eyes, and
knew it, played with them in directing
their glances to the official tribunes.
Their heads were topped with the old
! Limoges coiffure. Otherwise they went
as near the Paris fashions as the
cheap "couturieres" OF a provincial
town could bring them. This spoiled
the effect of the quaint headdress, and
| the machine-made boots or shoes they
wore mocked the finery on the skirts
/ The Limoges population, now above
] 100000, is mainly industrial and So
cialistic, and is furious at the new
military law.
Upon leaving Limoges the President
visited Nine. de Pompadours' marqui-
sal Fief, where Gustave Dore drew the
castles and landscapes for Balzac's
"Contes Drolatiques." It is a wild
and romantic borderland. The name
of the province, La Marche, means
border, for formerly it was between
the possessions of the Dukes OF
France and the Counts of Toulouse,
and a borderland generally is wild
and rugged, set with castles built for
defense rather than luxury. The Cas-
tie of La Pompadour" (the favorite
of Louis XIV. of France), which would
have excited the enthusiasm of Sir
Walter Scott, iS stern and forbidding,
the very counterpart to the gay style
to which Nine. de Pompadour gave her
name.

GOSSIP OF THE COURTS

The Hellenic people and their ruler,
King Constantine, have good cause 10
be grateful to the Kaiser, whose
mighty word legalized the peace
treaty of Bucharest, despite the strong
opposition of the foreign Office at the
Ballplatz, in Vienna, securing TO
Greece quite an important maritime,
slice of the Balkan peninsula. Be
sides, their ruler is the husband Of the
Kaiser's sister, Princess Sophie, of
Prussia, and as an appreciation of
his valor as a strategist and his
army's recent success was honored
with the baton of a field marshal of
the German army. Small wonder
then, that in his pride and full Of
gratitude, he did not scrupulously
weigh his words, on the occasion Of
his visit to his august brother-in-
law at Berlin. when during a public
speech he declared that "the success
and victories Of my army are the
result Of the thorough German mill
tary training of my soldiers by your
most able generals"
or course this is not so. But plain,
straightforward, Constantine never
was a diplomats; and in expressing
this sentiment he was prompted solely
by his feeling of gratitude for what
the Kaiser had done for Greece re-
Gently and by his personal training
during his short period of service at
Potsdam.
Nevertheless, the King of the Hell
enes committed a serious "faux-pas
by his Prime Minister the exception
ally shrewd and very tactfu Venl-
zelos, who in press interviews dis
tinctly and unequivocally repudiated
his masters word Nor can he be
blamed for this act of precaution, for
King Constantine's itinerary led him
to the Elysee Palace to make his bow
to the head of the powerful French
republic, whose arms and tutorship OF
the technique of practical, modern
warfare has done far more for Greece
than the intimate relationship of her
reigning house with the Hohenzol-
lerns.
M. Poincare has been coming out as
a modern style" President, unmind-

dents, when they stand in his way or
run counter to his tastes. The reason
for such simplicity is that he has al
ways been a man of mental activity.
Pomp and ceremony to him is paro-
chial and hollow. The President must
have Mortified clubmen or sticklers for
the observance of trifies, for on his
tour through the Provinces he was
wearing frock coat and a derby hat.
But though regalian forms, such as
President Faure cherished, were alb
sent from the tour, there was an ex-
preston of regal power in the cor
tege of Ministers, Senators, and Depu-
ties of the departments which he
passed through not to mention the

EQUALIZATION Ann PARTIsANsHIP.

Il QUALIzING the assessment Of city Is not par
IL tisan matter.
It is highly important piece of municipal bus
ness.
II s' Of great Importance that, when It is under
taken it shall not be tainted tinctured by par
tisanship.
That is true even though political party real-
ize the necessity such equalization and take the
action needed TO bring il about
The assessment is the bedrock which the
finances OF city rest.
Anything that tends to impair the stability of that
bedrock is a menace to all the people
AS the questions surrounding the assessment are
purely economic and in q municipal sense, CONNER
cal they should considered solely from business
viewpoint.
ANY other course would be fatal to the success Of
an equalization plan.
IT, as has been said. from comparison Of ideas the
truth is evolved there should be widespread discus
sion of this assessment matter and the official ear
should not be closed to any man who has sensible
suggestion to offer to property values no matter
what the politics Of that be.
II Is alleged that under the existing assessment
many properties are assessed entirely too low and
that many others are assessed entirely too high II
that be true path of duty Of the city officials Is
hlazed so clearly that none OF them will have valid
excuse for failing to follow IT,.
Equitable assessment standards must be liked All
properties no matter by whom owned or where sit
uated must be valued according to those standards
Personal corporate political influence must not be
permitted to ntrude and lead the oLcias to depart
from those standards the pecunary benefit Of any
one. In no other way equalization be effected
and the burdens of taxation be distributed fairly
among the people
The Board Of Assessment, Revision and Appeals is
a Republican body That fact is due not to special
design but to g. that the city charter provides
that it shall be composed Of he President of Council
he chairman of the Finance Committee Of Council and
pnfl to he
the last city election resulted in all three OF those
offices being held by Republicans at the present time.
That board which Is empowered by law to make the
revision the assessment might appoint If it de-
sired Republicans to do all the work connected with
hat assessment Il recognizes however, that, were
to do such act would give to the entire work
he tincture OF partsanship Therefore decision has
been reached to divide the working force between Re
pubcans and Democrats the end that the equaliza
ton may nonpartisan business transaction, fre
from public suspicion and for the public good. w
feel sure the people will applaud the very sensibl
course that Is being pursued

Damaged Than was Thought.
After resting some two months in
the mud, off the Chestnut street pier,
Philadelphia, the Ericsson Line
steamship Penn was yesterday finally
raised and floated. Careful prepara-
tions had been made by the wreckins

Of the experience Saturday when, af-
ter the vessel had been lifted on an
even keel, she filled again and settled
back in the same position.

Prof. Spinazzola, director-geperal
of the excavations of Pompeii, scouts
the idea that the port of that ancient
city has been discovered. He points
out that not only are sea water marks
found frequently on stone foundations
in the vicinity of the sh IRE, but that
a large quantity of wooden posts, sup
posed to be the masts of ships, are the
remains of a plantation of expresses.
He discredits the belief of the exist
ence of an ancient port He intends
to make the discovery and preserva-
tion of the upper floors, roofs, and
balconies in the buried buildings his
main effort, in contrast to the ground
floor remains. with which visitors to
Pompeii are more familiar. He means
to display the ancient life of Pompeii
in a more realistic fashion. There
must be a great street of buried
houses exactly as they we're at the
moment they we're covered with lava,
and where everything will be found in
its place, including the furniture.
There must also be whole rows of
shops, with their goods still inside of
them

He was also "just cleaned up" when

toss him up and down and the father
came to regard the child as mere
possession Of his wife, Reginald went
through the usual course of governess,
kindergarten, boarding school and tu'
tor and P. Houlihan hardly knew the
child. He didn't see that the name
was an incongruity, that Reginald
looked like his father, and that Regi-
maid carried his left shoulder with the
same slant as did Patrick Houlihan
and Michael Houlihan before him--the
heritage of generations of hod carriers.
He didn t notice how Reginald s chest
began to bulge in front and he never
asked the boy any questions. "His
mother will attend to him." he thought
and let it go at that. Finally Reginald
went to college and for four years
