quainted with him as it pre-
tends to be. When he first
joined the circus he seemed
annoyed because the cheap,
sickly, treacherous little mon
key attracted more attention
than he did; but he is over
that now. Although he is not
paid the homage and attention
that is his due, this giant beast
does not show his disappoint-
ment, but lies contentedly in
the mammoth tank of water
in the bottom of his cage, and
in parade he will occasionally
make goo-goo eyes at the
crowds or open his great
mouth. When the menagerie
is opened he is so provoked
that people devote so much
time to the other numerous
attractions of the Gollmar
Brothers geological display that
he frequently turns his back to
tile crowd.

A PROSPECTS

grown much more encourage.
ing within the past few days,
and prospects for peace are
brighter than they have yet
been since the negotiations be-
gan, says the Grand Forks
Herald. 1t is stated that the
international aspects of the
question are substantially set
tied, and there is now in pro-
gress a discussion of the in
ternal affairs of the country
which promises to result in an
amiCable settlement.
When reduced to their low
est terms the problems involv-
ed in the controversy between
the United States and Huerta
were relatively simple. The
United States had refused to
reCogeize Huerta as the lawful
ruler of Mexico. That position
was adhered to. and would have
been adhered to under any
circumstances, and in no case
would there have been any re-
cognition of the legality of the
Huerta regime. 1t was for the
representatives of Huerta to
accept this fact and govern
themselves accordingly. They
might refuse to negotiate fur
Their, or they might agree that
there should be no recognition
of Huerta expressed or innpli-
ed. After putting forth all the
effort possible for their prinCi-
pal, they have Welded to the
inevitable, and agreed that
Huerta should resign or abdi-
cate, or in some way or other
effaCe himself. The United
States has insisted that the
provisional government to be
created, must in a moderate
way, at least, represent the
views of the constitutionalists
and be in sympathy with the
demand tor various reforms,
agrarian and otherwise, which
are sought by the constitution
alist group. That demand was
based, evidently, on the plain
fact that the constitutionalists
would not accept a government
hostile in spirit to them and
their cause, and that without
their acceptance, any provi-
sional government set up
would be farcial. Again the
Huartiatas have yielded to the
inevitable. There has been no
question of war between the
United States and Mexico, and
the warlike acts performed by
the United States have been
simply acts called forth by the
offensive and injurious attitude
of the usurper who happens to
hid sway for the time being
in the city of Mexico. With
him out of the way there are
no apologies to be made, no
claims to be adjusted, save
such as will be adjusted in due
course by civil procedure, and
there will remain no reason for
the further progress, of Ameri-
can troops into the interior, nor
for their continuance at Vera
Cruz, save for the preservation
of order pending final adjust
ment,
The difficult part of the stu
alton has appeared to be that
of getting the Mexican con.
stitutionalists and federals
: themselves to agree on a basis
of settlement. And in that
are involved questions yet to
be adjusted. The constitution.
alists have refused to cease
their military operations. fear
