Fifty Transports Needed.

The transfer by water Of the troops OF
the first field army Will call for fifty
transports. for the acquisition Of which
the military authorities have been nego-
tiatlng in a tentative way for months. II
will be two. and perhaps three. weeks be-
fore any Of these transports will be avail
able for duty in the transportation Of
troops.
One OF the problems confronting the
military authorities involves the means OF
obtaining supplies which are not readily
acquired in the open market. So far as II
has been possible military authorities
have been purchasing material for a re-
serve stock in those instances where II
would take time to obtain them But the
supply in reserve. including clothing, I'm
munition and medical stores will not, Of
course, begin to meet the demand of a
force Of more than 10000 men for any
length Of time. There Will have to be a
special appropriation made TO furnish this
material as soon as Congress determines
upon military activity.

POOR SHOW FOR PAVING.

We arc sorry not to be able to an
nounce more rapid progress on the
part OF the city council toward paw
ing. The prediction was made some
time ago that nothing would be done,
this year. that enough opposition OK
lists in the council to postpone doing
anything until next year. 1T is said
by me, council that .tl,e-city.is now in
debt and that it is not in a position
to advance money to pay for paving
at street intersections and that for
this reason alone it will be advisable
TO wait until next year
At the rate the city has been CON
tracing debts during the administra-
ton OF the present council. 1t is safe
to assert that next year the indebted
ness will be larger, than it is tins
year, and the argument that the in
dcbtedncss is such as to interfere
with paving will be stronger when
the question comes up next year. 1t
is said that preliminary steps are be-
ing taken to prepare for paving, but
the steps are being taken so slowly
that there is no assurance that any
thing will be done this year.
Strangers who come to Dcnison are
at loss to know why we are not
paving when such towns as Carroll,
Manning, Harlan, Sac City and all
other. towns of like size in our neigh
borhood are engaged in paving this
very year.
II is said that one member OF the
council absolutely refuses to even
commit himself in favor of starting
to pave this year. II is most unfor-
tunatc that a city the size of Deliison
and with the reputation that it, ell
joys should be handicapped by hav-
ing, q member of the council who is
willing to place himself on record as
against public improvements. We
cannot believe that a majority of tho
council are willing to commit them
selves to such a policy.

4 q.
have won the, victory the Bulletin
thinks, it is a mistake for the Review
to speak Of it. 1t is easy to under
stand why the Bulletin is depressed at
the republican victory and elated when
such men as Finn and Perkins and
other moose politicians are success
full, because the success of the moose
party means indirectly the opportun
ity for the democratic party. 1t has
become customary for the democrats
and the moose people to vie with each
other in denouncing the great leaders
of the republican party and we arc sor-
ry to say that this practice has tend
ency to mislead a great many republi
cans. and to cause. them TO believe that
the leaders Of their party are not al
ways what they should, be; in other
words, it is an investment on the part
of bull moose leaders and democratic
politicians, in which they feel that
they are compensated for their efforts
in the game in what they draw from
the rank and file of the republican
party. The trouble is the leaders in
the republican party, from the stand
point Of morality. craftsmanship and
character, by. far hold. over the lead
ership,. Of either of the other parties.
Mr.. Pcnrose has to his credit in
Pennsylvania a record of successful
leadership which has placed the. re-
publican majority SO large in that
state that the other parties seem in
significant compared with it. To say
that under, the leadership of such a
man the people of the state. are de-
ceivcd and mislcd is preposterous. 1t
is the personal honesty of Pcnrose
that enables him to lead his party sucr
cessfullyt as he has lead the party in
Pennsylvania. He is no more Of a
boss in Pennsylvania than the editor
of the Bulletin is the boss OF the dem
ocratic party in this county.
E.. Mr.. .Penrose has the advantage In
being able to command the respect of
the people OF PENNSYLVANIA and they
follow; his, leadership because of his
intelligence, while in the case here,
the democrats are supporting the boss
because they are coerccd into doing
SO.

cARRANzA WANTS RECOGNITION


The Mexican situation does not
look as promising as it did Il week
ago. At that time the mediators and
leading men of both nations were in
clined to be OPTIMISTIC. Within q
week Carranza the leader of the in
surgents, has issued Il statement to
the American people complaining OF
the treatment accorded his faction
by the mediators. The statement has
created sope disturbance and caused
many to- believe that the elimination
of Huerta will not satisfy the faction
in Mexico opposing his unless the
faction is recognized as the controll-
ing force in governmental affairs in
Mexico. The probabilities are that
when Huerta is disposed of that trou-
BILE with the other crowd will begin,
and it is difficult to predict just what
the outcome will be.
Some of the Wilson admirers are
a little premature in celebrating the
great victory of peace which they
claim he has Won inasmuch as the
problem is not yet solved. It,, per-
haps, is just as well for them to wait
and mot hollcr until they are out OF
the woods" ....
