AMERICAN FLEETS ARE
READY FOR ACTION

WASHINGTON, d. c., June 1S.-
The Mexican and European questions
occupied the attention of the cabinet
at meeting today.
1t is understood that until further
efforts of the factions in Mexico to
agree permanently upon govern
ment in Mexico, the administration
will not take any further steps. But
it is believed President Wilson is de-
termined to force peace. 1t is ap-
parent the factions are not willing to
stop the fighting.
American fleets on both coasts are
shaping for action. There is now a
good force on the border.
President Wilson is hopeful that
they will establish government that
he can recognize, but is prepared
to resort to the sternest measures, if
necessary to end what he considers an
intolerable situation.
England has admitted the preparing
of note to America, dsputing the
claim that Americans are suffering

SUPREME COURT
HAS BEEN ASK ED
TO GIVE OPINIONS

Attorney Z. o. Phlegar of Pueblo
maintains that the adoption of the
recall of judicial opinions constitution
al amendment two years ago, COM
pletely abolished the position of JUS
tice of the peace in Colorado. He has
carried suit to the state supreme
court TO maintain his position. He
claims that the office of justice of the
peace was abolished through the
wording of the amendment as COM
pared to the constitution of the state
previous to the last election read as
follows:
"The judicial power of the state
as to matters of law and equity,
expept as in the constitution other
wise provided, shall be vested in a
supreme court, district courts, coun-
ty courts justices of the peace and
such other courts as may be provided
by law"
The amendment as adopted reads:
tine judicial power of the state as
to all matters of law, equity, except
as in the constitution otherwise pro-
vided, shall be vested in supreme
court, district courts, county courts,
and such other courts as may be pro-
vided by law"
1t will be noticed that the words
Justice of the peace" as they ap-
ed in the old constitution do not ap-
pear in the amended section.
Phlegar claims this abolishes that
position and he has carried a suit to
the higher court to prove his claim.
