he stepped aboard the train.
This strike cannot be settled in a

themselves it would be settled very
quickly. 1t is the advice of the out

to do more than anything else to pro-
long this strike"
The governor said he thought the
present IN inopportune time for exec.
utive action, calling attention to the
fact that the judicial machinery of
the state is in full swing. He said he
was unwilling as governor to do or
say anything that might be construed
by IN interest as an attempt to in
1uence the course of justice.
Delegations of workmen represent
ing union and n%onunion elements came
to the Douglas House in a steady
stream, but Governor Ferris saw
them all and cleared up his own cal.
endar of appointments as well.
Two additional eviction cases were
related to the governor and it became
evident that this phase Of the situa.
ton is likely to assume major pro.
portions soon. In this connection the
governor was informed of the decision

Mexican Incidence has always had
something to do with making Mexican
national history" said traveller,
Mexico has class of natives called
'leaners' from their habit of leaning
against the side of u building to roll
cigarette. Once In this position the
leaner adheres to 1t for hours
"Tradition declares that q Mexican
leaner once sued an American railroad
builder for pulling down building
against which the plaintiff had been
leaning. Damages were awarded for
severe shock and Inconvenience, and
the court took occasion TO recommend
q law requiring one hours notice uA'
der similar CIRCUMSTANCES.
Mexican military forces are to
some extent recruited from leaners,
Mexican history has record Of an
lnsurgent force which was being
pushed forward victoriously when 1t

his adversary was also q leaner.

force came back. crossed without OPP
