announced that the check of tho
names on the referendum petition filed
on bills passed by the last Legislature
had been completed.
The petition for referendum vote
on the bill creating Alamosa county.
out Of portions of Conejos and Costello

that it was 629 names short Of the
required number. The other six ref
erendum petitions were found to have
enough signatures.
They are: A petition referring tho
entire public utility bill; petition re-
ferring sections IS, 36 and 81 OF the
public utility bill; petition referring
sections &c and 81 Of the public util-
ity bill; a petition referring the COM
mission merchants bill; a petition re-
ferring the bill forbidding privately
paid deputy sheriffs, and petition re-
ferring the bill changing the law on
assumption of risks.
The effect of the rejection Of this
petition will be that the Alamosa
county law is now effective and the
county, for which no officers have
been appointed, has legal existence.
The six referendum petitions which
were legally filed and one initiated
bill, declaring newspapers to be public

shington.-President Wilson let
1t be, known that he was inclined to
believe there was an organized desire
proceeding from sources unknown
to him-to bring on war between
the United States and Mexico. The
President does not regard the move
ment as extensive, but as very
troublesome and referred to misrep-
resentations in some individual news
papers. He indicated that he shared
liams, who declared in a speech that
an organized lobby existed to involve
the United States in war.
There is no occasion for alarm, In
the opinion of the President who told
callers that within the last forty-eight
hours the Mexican situation had i'm
proved materially. =. 1t was made clear
by the President to those with whom
he discussed the situation that the in
structions to John Lind, his personal
representative, were chiefly to in
form the American government how
things stood generally in Mexico and
just what were the opportunities for
the good offices of the United States
