Mediators Blame f7,~%-~~.
 Uncle Sam
For Carranza's Refusal to Par icipate- Railroad Mined Between Vera Cruz and
 Capital.
United Press Dispatch.


 Washington, D. C., May 5.- The refusal of General Carranza to participate internationally in the mediation and the with drawal of his invitation will not ! end the attempted mediation of the Argentine, Brazilian and Chilean envoys. They will how ever restrict their endeavors to obtaining participation from Huerta in plan that can later ' be submitted to all Mexico, Gen. eral Carranza included, to re- store peace and a constitutional government.
 The mediators will now be for ced to take notice of the initial cause of the break, insult to the i. American flag and the refusal of a salute in apology upon the part Nf Huerta. The mediators are disposed today to blame the U- nited States for Carranza's atti- tude in refusing to mediate his i, cause.
 It is insisted in Latin Ameri- Gan diplomatic circles that if this government through it's consuls had suggested toGeneral Carranza that his participation was desired in the efforts at me- Xdiation, he would have been com- ( pelled to do so.
 | While the mediators refuse to comment, those closely associat- ed with them, declare that if ne- | gotiations fail, Carranza, who should have been controlled by the United States, will be to blame.
 The cabinet for the first time since the Mexican situation be- came acute, held avery brief ses- sion today. Secretary Bryan reported to the cabinet the re- suit of the conferences of medi- ation and all agreed that for the present all this government can do is to mark time.
 The rrmors here reporting Hthat Admiral Mayo has hinted as advisable that this country take Tampico are believed to have originated in his state | ments that it would be easy for the navy to take that port.
 Secretary of The Navy Dan iels could not account for the reported rebel threat that they would destroy the Tampico oil . wells provided American vessels entered the river.

Counties Must Report to the
State Taxation Conditions.

To arrive at basis and secure gen.
eral review OF the taxation system
throughout the State, the State Tax
Commission has sent out forms of re-
ports to be made as soon as possible
by the Board of County Commissioners
for every county in Maryland. The re-
ports require the answering of so many
questions that it will probably be several
weeks before replies begin to come in.
AS far as could be learned the Fred
erick County Board of County Commis.
sioners had not received one of these
blank forms.
The questions relate to the local tax
rate. the classification of lands. taxation
in incorporated towns. methods of dis
covering taxable securities, changes in
assessments. the view Of the commis-
sioners on farm taxation and many mat
tiers of detail. Some OF the questions
indicate that one of the chief ends 10
be attained through the reports is the es-
tablishment of uniform system of as
sessment throughout the State. With
the uniform assessment throughout the
State 1t is generally predicted that the
taxable basis OF the county, will soar
and there should be 20 corresponding
slump in the tax rate of the county.

THE BOOK OF BOOKS.

No fragment of a battle ever survived
so many battles as the Bible; no citadel
ever withstood SO MANY hurricanes and
was swept with such storms. And yet it
stands 1t has seen the rise and fall Of
Daniels four empires. Assyria bequeaths
few mutiated figures to the riches of
our national museum. Media and Persia,
like Babylon, which they conquered
have been weighed in the balance and
long ago found wanting. Greece but
lanlly survives in its historical fame.
Ills living Greece no more" and the
iron Rome OF the Caesars has long
since ceased to boast. And yet the
book that foretells all still survives.
while the nations, kings. philosophers,
systems, asd institutions have all passed
away. The Bible engages mems deepest
thought, is examined by the keenest IN
tellect and stands revered before the
highest tribunals, is more read, sIfted
and debated. more devoutly loved and
more vehemently assailed. more de-
tended and denied, more industriously
translated and given to the world, more
honored and abused than any other book
that the world ever saw. Ii survives all
changes, itself unchanged; it moves all
minds, yet is moved by none; it sees all
things decay yet itself is incorruptible;
it sees myriads OF other books engulfed
in the stream Of time, and yet it is borne
along until the mystic angel plants its
foot in the sea and swears by Him who
lIveth forever and ever that time shall be
no more. With Isaiah we say: IAN

thereof is as the flower OF the held. The
