According to General Huerta the
former congress became the center OF
revolutionary agency, a sort of open
agency for northern revolutionists
took an attitude Of opposition against
the government in the work it was
attempting and invaded aggressively
not only the province of the judicial
power, but also that OF the executive,
in order to second in this manner
the nefarious activity OF the rebels.
In this connection he quotes Ma
poleon to the effect that the law Is
not violated when you save the faith
erland."
He promises later to give congress
detailed report of his acts in con
nection with the taking over of the
direction OF the departments of fl
nance, interior and war.
Soldiers To Be Retained
WASHINGTON, Nov. 20.-lhe
events connected with the military
and naval situation in regard to Mex
ico attracted interest today
General Bliss, commanding the
American forces on the border, was
authorized TO retain two regiments
of cavalry who were to come north.
Senator Shepherd and Representative
Henry had urged the war department.
to keep the two regiments, with the
two that were to relieve them, on the
border.
The news that two big British IL
cruisers had been ordered from West
Indian ports to Vera Cruz, created
some comment in official circles,
where it was recalled that the recent
loadon dispatches had indicated that
,he British government would entrust
the interests of;their subjects i'll Mex
ico to the United States. 1t was
pointed out, however. that the Wash
government had welcomed the
OF foreign warships in
Mexican waters, and that the gathe--
ing of British, Japanese, German and
li,nch warships on the coast might
indie: te to General Huerta a growing
lack of confidence on the part of the
powers in his ability longer to nam
tain himself and assure the safety Of
foreigners in Mexico.

MEXICO CITY, Nov. 20.-Specu-
lation as to what action President
Wilson intends to take i'll the Mcxi-
can situation was increased today by
the knowledge that the American
charge daffaires, Nelson O'Shaush-
messy, had received new instructions
from Washington to wait at his port
for further instructions and that in-
portant matters were under consid-
Grafton. The announcement THAI a
British squadron is coming to Brit
ish water created keen interest, but
the effect upon the Mexican mind
was reassuring because the Mexican
people continue to look upon Grent
Britain as a friend.
The foreign colony in the Mexican
capital is preparing to defend them
selves in the event of disturbances
in the capital and particularly should
final settlement be left to the Mex-
leans themselves. Sir Lionel Garden
and Admiral Won Pintze, the British
and German ministers, respectively,
have suggested 10 their nations the
advisability OF pcrfecting some sort
OF defense organization. No advice
has been given to the Americans, but

IRE OF REPUBLICANS IS
RAISED BY APPOINTMENT

A special dispatch to the Reno Ga
zette OF yesterdays date from Gard
nerville indicates chat there is some
dissention in the town to the south
over the removal of the old and the
appointment of the new postmaster,
and all kinds of maledictions are
about to be heaped on the heads
OF the Nevada senators who are re-
sponsible for the action that has been
taken The dispatch follows:
After a quarter century, during
which time the Gardnerville postof-
flee affairs have been administered
without regard to politics, the time
has come when the party in power
must seemingly be represented. The
office has gone begging for an oc-
Cupant in times past, owing to the
lack of remuneration therefrom.
Six years ago. after the postmas-
tership had been offered to many,

administration, through his courtesy
to the patrons and his close atten
ton to the duties, he has succeeded
in bringing the Gardnerville office
into the third class, with a salary t
the postmaster amounting to ST., 100
per year This has made the offiCe
a plum" as is evidenced by the fact
that our worthy senators have an
rounced thar Democrat must have
the office.
Public Not Consulted
Within the past week it has been
announced that H. \. \. Todd who
like the late David Hill. can say, Il
am a Democrat" has been announced
as the succes essful candidate for post
master. The appointment was made
without regard to the wishes OF the
patrons OF the office and came as
surprise to all excepting the one di-
rectly interested. While il is proba-

That he administered the affairs Of
his office in an admirable manner ;s
shown by the general Good will OF
his patrons. Postoffice inspectors
who have checked up his accounts
from time to time have not only told
him, but others, that were all offices
conducted as well as the one in Gard

A Hole in a Hornets Nest
That the senators have stirred up
a hornets nest is without question
and il is to be hoped that they will
reconsider and let the patrons Of
the Gardnerville postoffice have some
voice regarding the one who shah
have the administration of the affairs
thereof. as it is the latter, and no,
the former. who have the greatest
interest in the matter. If vote were
taken it is very probable that it would
result in the request that Mr.. Jacob

What he has done is known and ap-

question to be answered in time to

Unless present plans go wrong George
town is likely to face Virginia in the
annual game with the identical back
field that represented the Hilltoppers in
the clash last fall. Fury, Dunn, Murray,
and Costello are expected to again get
into the game for Georgetown, and the
quartette is more than anxious to es-
tablish a record of having four straight
wins over the Orange and Blue players.
Neither Costello nor Fury have been
defeated by an Orange and Blue eleven
since they have been in college. Dunn
has participated in two Virginia games
while Murray has been in but one. None
of the Blue and Gray players who will
report. to Coach Gargan tomorrow af-
ternoon have known what it is to have
Virginia defeat them.
Just as the Navy is planning to win
out over the Army for the fourth time in
succession this year, Georgetown is cal
culating to lay the Charlottesville players
again low and come through with a
four time win.
1t is a matter of history that since
the games were started back in 1889 that
Virginia has one record in the yearly
contests that Georgetown is striving to
beat. Few know that the three defeats
handed Virginia in 1910, 1911, and 1912
were eclipsed during the years 1906,
le07, 1908, and : 9e9, when Virginia won
four straight times from the Hilltoppers-
To win this year making it four times
straight, is Georketown's ambition, and
IL the veterans returning tomorrow are
to be quoted correctly they are firm in
their intention of handing it again to
the Orange and Blue team, for Dunn,
Fury, and Costello want to go through
their four years on the Hilltop without
defeat.
. The call for candidates has been is
