Effort to Impress People.

The American authorities. civil. naval
and army. are making effort to dissent
nate throughout the republic truthful
pictures of the benevole rule already
established in Vera Cruz. There is rea-
son to believe also thai Washington is
quietly working to this same end through
military and civil agents sent here to
talk things over with representative Mex
leans These agents have been selected
for their knowledge of the Spanish Ian
guage and their familiarity with Mexico
and the Mexicans. and they are said TO be
making every effort to make plain the
disinterested motives of the Washington
administration. as well as its firm re-
solve that order be restored and a stable
government erected.
Close study Of the local situation
leads to the belief that. by delaying
amy contemplated extension of military
operations. the Washington govern
ment feels there is d Droba bility that
armed resistance may be eliminated to
q measurable degree. and countless
lives saved. This is thought to be the
purpose of the effort to scatter broad
cast through the territory toward
Mexico city. and to send into the capi-
tai itself. a full account. not only of
the kindly treatment given MeXicans
here but also of the number effective
ness and complete equipment of the
army and navy forces now employed
in Vera Cruz, and their readiness for
further use II required

Some Are Pessimistic.

Some careful observers among the
Mexicans however. take a pessImistic
view and do not believe that anything
short of complete American occupation
Of Mexico would bring about these de-
sired results. They point out that many
factions are striving for power in various
sections of the republic
here is also an element OF Mexicans
and American refugees now in Vera cruz
VINO express doubt that the mediat ZION
undertaken by Argentina, Brazil and
chile, OF similar negotiations will bring
about stable coalition of the warning
factions in the republic. or result in the
re-establishment Of order They are OF
the opinion that personal jealousies would
prevent the selection of any leader to rep
resent them all. and they unllesitatingly
declare that, in their opinion; ambition
and not patriotism actuates a great ma
jority of the Mexican factionists
1t is apparent that local opinion Of the
future is most conflicting Another idea
presented today by thoughtful Mexicans
is that the only solution of the problem
lies III partial occupation of Mexico by
the United States and the esta bills hn en-
under American protection OF go sern-
ment similar to the one formed in >ica-
ragua which later would be succeeded by
duly elected Mexican officials. the United
States supervising the elections and
vouching for their fairness. The idea is
receiving considerable Endorsement from a
group of Mexican officials who have re-
manned in the city.

the hands Of the attorney general
and has not been presented to the

Robinson is a member OF the firm

action upon this property.
County Lost $4,000. .
Criticism OF this act was found in
the fact that the lumber yards, in
which Robinson was interested were
assessed for approximately. $35 900 on
such escaped property. This is tax
in excess of $4,000. AS result of the
act of the board the county lost ap-
