tervention. Furthermore, such a
course does not impress the president

bilities as it Is regarded by military

of course, admitted officially, but your
correspondent knows that several Of
the diplomatic representatives of Eu-
ropean powers have informed their
governments that the United States
has come to the conclusion that the
Alternative to Huerta's continued de.
fiance and hold on Office is interven-
ton. These diplomats have kept in
close touch with the situation and
have CLEANED their conclusions from
what they have been told. officially by
the administration.
The president has given the ques-
ton of invading Mexico much thought
and has come to the conclusion that
Intervention win not constitute any
thing like so gigantic task as many
persons suppose and some military ex-
perts insist. He does not believe that
it will require an army of 100000 OF
100000 to effect the elimination OF
Huerta and to carry into effect the
mandate of the United States that
free and honest election must be held.
1t is expected that Wilson will strike

tenance-These Institutions Will
Soon Be Appointed.

Lexington, Ky.-.The State Tuber-
culosis Commission is highly pleased
at the results of the referendum votes
in Christian, Fayette and Henderson
counties for the creation of districts
for the erection of county tuberculosis
hospitals. The proposition was car
ried in Henderson by about 800 ma
jority; in Christian by 1000 and in
Fayette by vote of more than to 1.
The commission will soon recommend
to the county judges of the three coun-
ties appoin ynent of boards to conduct
the erection and maintenance of these
three hospitals, and the initial funds
for the purpose will be set aside by the
fiscal courts next year.
AS Kenton county had already de-
clared for the proposition, the COM
mission will soon have under its SUI
pervision the erection Of four hos
pitfalls in this state. This step the
commission regards as simply break
ing ground and campaigns will prompt
ly be begun in other counties to Sc
cure the creation of districts by action
of the fiscal courts.
The plan of controlling tuberculosis
through local hospitals is now Endorsed
by the leaders in this work throughout
the United States. The four counties
above named have showed themselves
as leaders in the movement, which it
is hoped soon will remove Kentucky
from its present position of having the
