The principal ground upon which Il
was sought to have the case reopened
was that improper methods had been
used TO obtain from McCleary q con-
fession that was admitted a. evidence.
Il was claimed by the attorneys for the
defendant that the so-calied "sweating"

to by the Washington County authori-

WAITING for United states to Act.
The situation has been canvassed in
all its aspects by these governments,
through their representatives here and in
Mexico. and they have become convinced
that nothing which 4aexico can do for
herself. or any single Mexican or group
of Mexicans can do for their country,

waiting, therefore, for the United States
to turn In and restore law. order, and
civilization. admitting that none among
their own number Is In position TO spare
the money, ships, and men required to
clean up Mexico.
It frankly has been stated by one
ambassador in Washington that II is not
question of the Monroe doctrine, but
simply the lack of the necessary forces
to spare for service in Mexico. These
governments consider the United States
is the only government that Is in a po-
sition to undertake the Mexican task, and
they are simply waiting for this govern

Announcement was also made by the
president of the committee to solicit
funds for Play Ground, as follows
G. G. Patterson, II. P. Morrow, ]. M.
Hibben.
Mr.. Morrow was the only member
of this committee present. He ~
ported that they had met and outlined
plans but at that time had not done
any soliciting, although a number of
contributions had been voluntarily
made.
The committee to solicit new mem.
bers reported that they had been out
couple of hours that afternoon and
had secured thirty applications. The
list had not been passed upon by the
executive committee as required by
the laws Of the Association and no
action cou d be taken at that meeting.
1t was then proposed by Granville
Barrere that the Association consider
the light question in all its phases :;
that it was question that more vitally
and directly touched the people of
Hillsboro than any questions that had
been up in years that all the informa-
tion possible be secured for the purpose
Of finding out what would be reason
BILE contract if made with private
company or whether it would be ad-
visable for the town to own and oper-
ate its own plant. He suggested that
it would be advisable to secure reports
from towns of about the size of Hills
boro as to what it cost them for street
lighting and commercial lighting and
that this information should be secured
from towns some of which had private
plants and others which had munich
pal plants.
President Free stated that he con-
sidered this question which should
properly be referred to the standing
committee on Streets, Railroads and
Public Improvements.
The inquiry was then made by Mr.
Barrere as to whether or not any of
the members of this committee were
stockholders in the Hillsboro Light &
Fuel Co., stating that he did not con-
slider that they should serve in this
capacity If they were, as it should be
composed of men who were absolutely
disinterested. Upon being assured
that none Of them were interested he
moved that the matter be referred to
them with instructions to secure all
information possible and repor, at the
next meeting, the Light Question to
be made the special order of business
at that meeting. The motion was
seconded by Blair M. Boyd and mani
mously carried.
The meeting then adjourned.
