Wilson Expects Early
End of Revolution.

WASHINGTON, Feb. president
Wilson expects the lifting of the en-
ergo on the importation of arms
into Mexico to result in the complete
crushing Of President Huerta within
p short time. Representa- tives of the
Constitutionalists are jubilant over
the action of the American Govern
ment.
These were two outstanding fea-
ures Of the Situation here to-day.
The Constitutionalists report that no
time now will be lost in forcing to a
successful conclusion the campaign
for the capture of Mexico City ana

Military experts point out that the
removal Of the embargo probably will
have such a marked effect on MeXi-
can sentiment that Huerta will be

Both Huerta and 0'Shaughnessy
Silent on the Subject of
Early Meeting.

urXTCO CITY, Feb. 4.-Charge
,-Afaires 'Shaughnessy and Sec
rotary Parker, of the American EN-
hassy went to the National Palace
earIv to-day and conferred with Pres
don't Huerta and two of his Cabinet
linisters-Senor Moheno, of the De-
rartment of Foreign Affairs. and
senior Lozano, of the Department of
Public Works.
The conference lasted two, hours.
When Mr.. O'Shaughnessy returned to
tho Embassy he stated that all of
those present at the meeting had
creed that nothing should be given
ont a 5 to what took place.
Several dispatches were sent from
the Embassy to Washington, but the
American Charge refused to divulge
their contents.
The conference at the National Pal
ace was followed by summons from
Huerta calling all the members of his
cabinet to a meeting this afternoon.
Palace attaches said that at this
meeting the entire situation would be
gone over carefully. This announce
ment was followed by conflicting ru
u1ors that Huerta would resign or
,hat he would give O'Shaughnessy his
passports. Both were Immediately
denied by Government officials.
Although the Mexican Government
to-day pledged itself to protect
americans from any attacks in re-
.aliation for the action of President
Wilson in lifting the embargo on the
importation of arms into Mexico,
MANY citizens of the United States
fed to Vera Cruz. Trains for the
coast were filed with men and wom-
en- who fear that President Huerta's
troops will be unable to quell anti
American ions. >

to take them seriously.

They have done the same thing in
the case of the students at the KAN
sas University and Agricultural Col
lege, and other institutions. Appro-
priahOns were made by the last leg
islature for Improving the campus at
different institutions. Instead Of let
ting the work to contractor, the
State Board OF Educational Admins
tration caused the work to be done
by the day and for the most part en-
plOyed students to do it, thus giving
them an opportunity to earn their
way at these educational institutions.
When the vouchers came In, Davis
and the Republican State Central
committee get out their pencils and
add more employees to the state pay
roll under the Hodges administration;
and the same thing has been done
at the charitable institutions under
the State Board Of Control No won,
der the Republican State Central
Committee feels that its dope has
been discredited and vents commit
tee appointed to investigate in the
hope Of finding some credible infor-
nation which can be used against
Governor Hodges administration.
That furnishes no reason, however,
for worry on the Governors part and
1t does not even dispose him to throw
out the life line to the gentlemen
who are grasping at snaws 10 save
their political lives. Governor Hod-
ges does not need any committee of
investigation to tell him what the
facts are. He has kept in close
touch with the business Of the diff

has visited these institutions person

state treasury was Valid. The press
bureau hastens to congratulate Mr..
Akers upon his recognition Of his mo-
raj obligation to turn these fees in
to the state treasury.
So far, well and good-Dut why not
turn these fees in NOW? AS we have
said, there is no legal obligation to
turn them in, only moral obligation
which requires a man to keep faith
with the people. Far be it from us
to doubt MIR. Aker's good Intentions,
but why not obey the call Of con-
science now BEFORE election, and
remove temptation. Why not let the
word go out, here is man running
for state treasurer who has an op-
portunity to legally "swipe" s., 200,
but having regard for his moral obi
cations, he promptly placed the mon
ey to the credit of the general fund,
and thereby places it absolutely be-
yond his power to change his mind
and appropriate this money to his
own uses after election. Inasmuch
as Mr.. Akers now recognizes the NOR
al obligation to turn this money in to
the state treasury, there is no reason
why he should treat it in amy other
manner than other state officers who
are required by law to turn fees in
to the state treasury.
The Oil Department turns it's fees
in to- the state treasury monthly.
Secretary of State Sessions turns in
monthly a lot Of fees which he might
just as legally keep, and other state
officers do the same thing.
BY crediting these fees to the gen
eral fund NOW, Mr.. Akers will place
the matter beyond cavil or question
and set himself right with lot Of
voters who realize the fact that Mr.
Akers has in the past changed his
mind" and his party allegiance.
It must be understood that thu
press bureau is not attacking Mr.
Akers personally. The personal re
latiOn of the writer of these letters
to Mr.. Akers is one of good will ant
friendship and the press bureau il
Simply pointing out to Mr.. Akers tina
he is doing himself a great injus

to repent of his resolution to tus
this money in to the treasury an

SPECIAL CORRESPONDENCE.
? Topeka, Kans., June 20, 1914.

9 8 Topeka, Kans., June 20, 1914.
The press bureau has called atten-
zion in recent letters to the matter
Il the fees collected by the State
Treasurer and the State Auditor,
which has not been turned in to the
State treasury and credited to the
general fund. Auditor Davis collect
ed and kept $4,000 in fees during
ne last calendar year and for the
present calendar year it is not at all
probable that fees will be less than
last year. This makes in round num-
Ners $1,5O0.OO in addition to the sal
cry Of the auditor for the term to
which he was elected in 1912.
In the state trsasurer'S office, the
fees for the fiscal year ending June
30; 1913, were $2,5OS.OO. During half
this period the fees were collected
by State Treasurer Tulley and dur
lng the last half Of the fiscal year
The fees. were collected by State
Treasurer Akers.o' 1t is safe to esti-
mate that the fees collected by Mr..
Akers amounted to at least half the
total sum. The fees for the fiscal
+. year ending. June 80, 1914, will ap-
prOximate 100000. By January l,
1916, it is entirely safe 10 say that
Mr.. Akers win collect at least ST.
10000 more, or for the two year
term for which he was elected in
1917, $1,000, in addition to his salary
d $4,000 per annum.
Mr, Davis does not deny that he
has taken these fees. Mr.. Akers wat
quoted in the Topeka Capital az
having said he had not touched
them" meaning the fees ON state
fiscal agency business; but when thu

books a few months ago Mr.. Kfncait
states that Mr.. Akers declared his in
tentionsto appropriate these fees ant
called the state accountants atten
ton to the decision Of the supreme
court which permitted him to do SC.
Since this matter has been broueh
to the attention of the public by tn
press bureau. Mr.. .Akers is quoted 6
having stated. that he intends to turt
these fees into the state treasury A.
THE END OF HIS TERM.
This declaration is an admission {
what the press bureau contended fol
toFit: That while Mr. Davis and Nj
Akers might take advantage of tex
meal decision of the supreme cou
and LEGALLY keep these fees, the
ought not in good conscience to
