Quick Revolution in Mexico

XTILLA's capacity as a general is great
v There seems to be no commander in
Mexico who can contend successfully with
him. nor any body of soldiers which can be
relied on to check his wild troops. Carranza
is left in a position where discretion will be
the better part of valor. His courageous
stand against the demands of Villa marked
him months ago as a strong man. one likely
TO take the bit in his teeth and awe even the
former bandit into compliance with civil
edicts. on the other hand, Carranza once
in the capital has failed to distinguish his
personal fortunes from those of his country.
He has not clung tenaciously to the program
of the Constitutonalists There is nothing
left for him to do but accept a compromise,
II Villa can be persuaded to yield at all now
that the die has been cast. But this will not
be long revolution The result will be de-
termined one way or the other within few
months at the most.

No Grab This Time: The Light Is On

THE loan bill calls for 100000 with which
u to purchase ground for the proposed Mu-
nicipal Court buildings. The land involved
is scarcely one-fourth Of what will be neces-
sary if the whole scheme for palaces at the
taxpayers expense goes through. Some in
terested gentlemen are looking for invest
ments There will be rich pickings later on
II the city can be dedicated to this adven-
ture in so dubious a manner.
There is a smell Of graft in the entire en-
terprise. The drawing elsewhere in the
EVENING LEDGER tells the story. If there
were any necessity whatever for abandoning
the excellent detention house already avail
able, if there were every reason for housing
tf,e Municipal Court in the manner purposed,
ordinary business sense would require con-
demnaton of the whole plot of land, not
part of it,
There was hurrying and scurrying to and
fro to secure the one vote necessary to over

nicely for the gentlemen with itching palms,
that publicity should suddenly throw its
broad glare on the whole infamous con-

In an effort to bring out big registration
