RECENT WAR CLOUD

CONTINUED from page one.)
ever. Secretary Garrison was engaged
in completing the plan to use the state
militia as regular agmy ad]mcl.
To have the program fully formulated
was deemed desirable, even though the
state troops should not be called into
the fieIl.
The administration was deeply con
cerncd over the rebels attitude. If a
break should occur between Generals
Carranza and Villa it was thought ex-
tremely likely the former and his fol
lowers would go entirely over to
Huerta, which might be expected to
make the dictator more stubborn in
his negotiations with the United
States. Secretary Bryan was thorough
ly convinced that Villas support was
to be relied on but he was not so cer-
tain that the rebel general could con
troll his men.
War Is Not Popular.
To one thing President Wilson had
made up his mind--he cannot popular
ize the w9h. Chairman William f.
McCombs of the Democratic National
committee has made canvass of the
party leaders and reported that oppo-
sition to hostilities was general ex.
cept on the part of few ingoes
This reports effect has been to in
fluenee the administration to exhaust
every other means before using phyei
cal force further. Every honorable
means, it was stated, will be resorted
to to preserve peace.
If Mexico can develop a-streAg man
however, it was the general, opinion
that something can be accomplished
1t was agreed on all hands that
neither Huerta, Carranza =. nor Villa
will do, since it would be impossible
for all factions of Mexicans to agree
on any one of them. The mediatorS
therefore were looking over the lesser
factional chieftains, hoping to fine
one likely to answer their purposes.
1t was learned ON high government
authority that the administration ha!
no disposition to drive n haEd bargain
but it was said the president would
insist upon two things-Huerta':
elimination and guarantee of the re
establishment of constitutional gov
ernmcnt in Mexico.
Huerta Wants To Get Out.
The mediators were Of the opinion
that Huerta realizes his position il
impossible, and will be glad of ;
chance to get out of it with som,
measure of dignity-and, it was as
sumed, with his pockets well linet
with money. Should he refuse. how
ever, it was the general belief thai
the better class Oh Mexieans woulC
force him out.
It was said Washington administra
iron probably would not press demands
for indemnity for the death of the
Blueiackets and marines who fell al
Vera Cruz.

Americans Are Safe.


Washington, April 2s.-The Brazil
ian minister at Mexico City notified
Secretary Bryan today that not a
single American had been slain there,
none was endangered, and only one
arrested in the last three days. He
also said only one American arrest had
occurred at Aguas Calientes, and that
that was under judicial proceedings
and had no connection with an out
break
Il have fun assurances, added the
minister, "that all foreigners will be
allowed to leave the capital whenever
they please
Cleveland Speeds South.
San Diego, Cal, April 2S.-After one
of the fastest eoalings ever made by
United States war craft, the cruiser
Cleveland Is today speeding south from
San Diego, where for six hours she
took on fuel last night. Although the
officers had nothing to say about it.
the opinion prevailed aboard that the
real destination of the Cleveland was
Salinas Cruz, at the Pacific end of the
Tehuantepec railroad, and not .Mazat'
Ian. as previously reported.
The Cleveland is of light draught
and for that reason her crew expects
her TO get into action early if any
movement is made to take q Pacific
coast Mexican port. The men are hav.
/ ing almosa constant drills.
The cleveland carried hea " load
Of supplies and extra ammunition, so
much OF tar latter being taken aboard
that some OF it had to be stored in the
Officers quarters.

A HAPPY CHILD IN
JUST A FEW HOURS
When Cross, Constipated or If Feverish
Give California Syrup Of Figs
Then Don't Worry.

Mothers can rest easy after giving
california Syrup of Figs" because in
few hours all the clogged-up waste
sour bile and ferwenting food gently
moves out Of the bowels, and you have
a well, playful child again. Children
simply will not take the time from play
to empty their bowels, and they become
tightly packed, liver gets sluggish and
stomach disordered.
When cross, fcverish, restless, see il
tongue is coated, then give this deli
cious "fruit laxative. - Children love
it, and it cannot cause injury. No diff.
ference what ails your little one-if
full of cold, or sore thorat, diarrhoca,
stomach ache, bad breath, remember, q
gentle "inside cleansing" should al
ways be the first treatment given. Full
directions for babies, children of all
ages and grown-ups arc printed on each
bottle.
Beware of counterfeit fig syrup. Ask
your druggist for a 50-eent bottle of
"California Syrup of Figs" then look
carefully and see that it is made by
the. California Fig Syrup Company"
We make no smaller size. Hand back
with contempt any other fig syrup.

WILL NOT OBEY RULING
COUNTY CLERK WILL NOT Ro-
TATE NAMES OH BALLOTS AT
COMING ELECTION.

Names ON the ballot in the T3 pre-
cincts Of Marion county will not be
rotated az the coming election, accord
ing to Max Gehlhar, county clerk, not
withstanding it is the opinion Of At
torney.General A. NJ. Crawford that
the names should be rotated where
there were five or more persons seek
ing the office. The county clerk takes
issue with the attorney general in the
construction Of the statute and backs
up his action with precedent. The main
reason for the decision not to rotate
is the expense involved. Regarding
this question Mr.. Gehlhar had the fol
lowing to say this morning:
"There is no more reason, declared
Clerk Gehlhar, "for the rotation of the
flames on the ballots for certain Of
fices this year than there was on the
ballot of 1912, as the law is identically
the same as it was at that time. The
law provides that the names of candi-
dates be rotated when there are five
or more for one office, and if there
are ten candidates for an office Of
which five may be elected the law
has been construed TO mean that there
arc only two candidates for each indi-
vidual office and that rotation is not
required. This construction was placed
upon this law in 1919 in this county
and also in Multnomah county, and
probably in every other county in the
state. In 1912 there were thirteen can
didates for the Legislature and there
are thirteen candidates this year and
there is no more reason for rotating
the names at present than there was
in the past.
In order to rotate the names To
suit the personal ideas of certain am
bilious candidates 1t will require 3623
changes of forms on the republican
ballot alone, which will be an immense
additional expense in printing the bal
lots. Anyone familiar with the print.
ing business will realize that these
changes of forms cannot be printed
for nothing All the candidates in
1912 were entirely satisfied with the
construction of the law, and It has GER
tainly met with their approval and
with the approval of the people at
large, rs no attempt has been made TO
change the law and make ii more def
mite. There is no question but what
the law is construed so as to suit the
people and taxpayers, although it does
not suit some Of the politicians.
"It is generally presumed that all
the candidates ON the 1914 ballot are
running on platform of retrenehment
in all public expenditure, but it seems
there are some who are trying to sad
die on the people the expense of max.
ing nearly 1000 additional changes of
forms of ballot in order to suit their
personal wishes and for their personal
benefit, without regard to the interests
OF the people at large. 1t is not diff
cult to tell what the attitude of these
politicians In regard to retrenchment
will be after they ara eleced. Where
q considerable saving Nn be made in
he construction of law, | believe in
constituting il in the interests of the
people at large rather than in the in.
terests of selfish politicians

NEW KIND OF POKER
DEBT IS DISCOVERED
Judge Kelly Says Note Given for
Money to Buy Poker Chips
Is Void.
LIQUOR CASE MAY BE
DELAYED BY WITNESS
Other Notes Of the Marion County
Circuit Court and New
Cases Filed.

That notes given for money with
which TO buy poker chips TO be used IN
gambling cannot be collected through
process of law, was one Of the stnte'
ments made by Judge Kelly this morn
ing in giving the charge to the jury
in the case of d. A. Madison against
J. II. Shelley, an action in the circuit
court for Marion county for the collec.
tion Of $l9s.5O on one note and $3.50
on another.
"The contracting of such debts is
against public policy" declared the
Judge, "and the law will leave them
in the same position as they were be-
fore. The question in this ease is
whether the facts show the debt was
contracted for gambling purposes or as
a loan, as the plaintiff affirms. At
ter giving further legal instructions,
the cause was submitted to the jury,
which went out shortly after II
O. clock.
The jury carly this afternoon return
ed verdict in favor of the plaintiff
in the sum of $433.50.
