There is something not only forbid

canyon-like> streets of the poorer quar-
ter, with their huge grim tenements
built of Incorporating stone and
rising high above the sunless streets.
One meets on the Old North bridge,
which spans the gulf between two
high portions of the town, pale-faced
women hooded In their shawls, and
bearing in their faces the marks OF
poverty, hard usage and vice. One

that they and their ancestors have

Edinburgh still deserves its ancient
name Of Aud Reekie, and between its

self-generated smoke, its stormy
skies, and its frowning and monumen-

grandeur hard to match in other and

HIERTA VOTE BELIEVED
TO INVALIDATE ELECTION
Result Of 5aIIotlng in Mexico for
President in Doubt and May not be
Known for Weeks.

Mexico City.-It may be weeks be-
fore the result of the election for
president will be determined. It would
seem at the present time, however,
that the vote cast for Provisional
President Huerta will invalidate the
election.
The hope is held out that the
"ayuntamiento, a body resembling in
small degree a board OF aldermen, will
have prepared its report for the fed
eral district by the end Of the week.
From the experience of the last pres
ldential election, when the means of
communication was much better and
the country was more nearly in a state
Of peace, 1t is regarded as too much
to expect that the results throughout
the country will be learned before
the expiration of several weeks.
Out of $40 polling places in the fed
eral district the Catholic party leaders
claim majority in 800 for their can
didates, Federico Gamboa and Gener.

based on returns reported by the
party watchers at the polls.

said by many politicians that enough
votes have been cast for the Huerta,
Banquet ticket to invalidate the cleo

laration that congress must declare
these votes illegal.

to meet November to pass upon the
ballots for senators and deputies.
