LIND COMES BACK
FOR A CONFERENCE
Federal Commander Must
Salute American Flag.
COMES IN GOOD TIME.

Washington, April 13.-Upon
whether the commander Of Huerta
forces at Tampico salutes the Ameri-
can flag in apology for the arrest OF
American marines last Thursday, de-
pends immediate Developments in the
Mexican situation. President Wilson
declared unohlcially today that he
expected the federal commander at
Tampico to fire a salute TO the Stars
and Stripes as demanded by Rear Ad-
miral Mayo and he spoke with a con-
hdence that implied insistence The
navy department still was unadvised
tonight as to whether or not the salu-
tie had been fired. 1t is understood
that instructions have been sent to
Charge O'Shaughenessy to represent
to the Huerta government the feel
ng OF the administration here over
the affront, but there has been no an
nouncements on the subject
The presence in Washington of
John Lind, President Wilson'S person
al representative in Mexico for the
last eight months, who arrived here
today on the presidential Yacht Nav
flower, gave the Warrington govern
ment an adviser with special know
ledge of the military situation at
.Tampico Mr.. Lind spent several
hours with Secretary Bryan today.
tomorrow he will see President Will
son, accompanied by Secreta,.v
Bryan, for an hour Just before the
cabinet meeting. Authoritatiy CIV it
is said that Mr.. Lind's report son the
general situation were so comoro-
hensive and complete that he really
aid not have to come to Washington
to supplement them.
IN GOOD TIME.
Mr.. Lind himself was uncommunj-
cative, saying merely he had soueht
a vacation and was at the orders of
the government. While he has kent
the president and Secretary Bravn in
formed constantly about develop-
ments, has presence mere at this time
is considered opportune, should any
unusual situation arise out of the de-
mand for salute at Tampico
Direct communication between
Tampico and the cable end at Vera
Cruz, which is the only means where
by news from Tampico can reach
Washington, can only be had by wire
less, and owing to the prevalence of
storms of hurricane proportions this
communication has been exceedingly
difficult and slow The Huerta gov
ernment itself, il is understood. has
been Obliged to communicate with
Tampico by message sent on steam
boats and it is suggested by naval Of
hcers that If 1t becomes necessary for
Gen. Huerta to send instruction to
the federal commander at Tampico in
very limited time he might have to
resort to the use of the radio outfits
OF the American battleships, even in
dealing with subject so delicate as
the demand for a salute
Administration ofT1cials are hopinp
that the salute will be fred and tho
incident closed. Their optimism is
such that Secretary Bryan is pIan-
nlng to go tomorrow 70 Miami. Fla.
to recuperate from his recent illness
while President Wilson will leave
again on Thursday night for White
sulphur Springs w. Va. to bring
Mrs. Wilson back to Washington.

Finney on Masonry.

Rev. Charles G. Finney was perhaps the most
powerful evangelist who labored in this
Country. The Lord wonderfully used him in
the salvation Of thousands Of souls His CONVEX
sion was marvellous
He belonged to the Masonic lodge when he was
saved, but left it Immediately afterward and bore
faithful testimony against it from that time until
his DEATH His work on Masonry is one Of the
very best published The following is synopsis
of one of his addresses on the subject
Those who adhere ntelligently and determined
ly to Freemasonry have no right in the Christian
church. How can we fail to pronounce Free
masonry an antichristian institution? Fol- ex-
ample:
/. We have seen that its morality is unchrs-
tian.
II. It's oathbound secrecy is unchristan.
III. The administration and taking of its oaths
are unchristian, and violation of positive COM
mand of Christ
w. Masonic oaths pledge its members to COM
NIT most unlawful and unchristian deeds.
l. To conceal each others crimes.
2. To deliver each other from difficulty whether
IlSHl VI WIOIS.
g. To unduly favor Masons in political actions
and in business transactions.
A. Its members to retaliate, and to prosecute
unto death the violators of Masonic obliga-
tons.
5. Freemasonry knows mercy, but swears its
candidates to avenge violations of Masonic
obligations even unto death.
g. It's oaths are profane, the taking of the Name
of God in vain.
T. The penalties of these are barbarous and
even savage.
8. Its teachings are false and profane.
g. Its design is partial and selfish.
TO- It's ceremonies are mixture of puerility
and profanity.
II. Its religion is deistic.
r. 1t is false religion, and processes to save
men upon other conditions than those re-
veaed in the Gospel of Christ.
49, 1t is an enormous falsehood.
H. 1t is a swinde, and obtains money from its
membership under false pretenses.
Is. It refuses all examinations, and wells itself
under mantle of oathbound secrecy
16 1t is virtual conspiracy against both church
and state.

CLEBURNE COUNTY MAY
 QUIT COTTON IN TIME

Dr. E. E. Parsons, demonstration agent for Cleburne county, tells of one farmer in his county who has cut out cotton and is developing live stock farming. Kenneth Morris, of Tyler, proceeds as follows: He cut a good crop of fall sown oats off one of his fields and then planted crop of corn and at the first cultivation planted peas in the corn. Both the corn and the peas have made a splendid growth and he is now cutting the whole and putting it in no ton silo. He has about 100 head of cattle well up in Shorthorn blood and has a fine lot of pea hay to feed with his ensilage. He is arranging to make a large Bermuda and bur clover pasture to assist in carrying on his cattle raising opera tions. This kind of farming looks good in this era of cotton depression.
