rain from so conducting the discus
sions as to make II possible for the
lnited States decision to stand or fall
on the attitude OF the other Govern-
ments.
Meanwhile Washington has become
the gathering place Of Mexicans and
Americans Interested in the Administra-
TONS latest efforts to work out a So
luton OF the problem. The Carran-
zistas were particularly in evidence.
Reports which they received to-day
OF the intentions Of the Administration
and the probable attitude of the Latin
American diplomats led the Carran-
zistas TO believe that they are about
to he sacrificed to the wishes Of the
United States.
Despite the optimism OF those most
interested In the Administrations plans
Tor Mexico. many persons were doubt
ful OF the effectiveness OF the measures
proposed for peace. It was admitted
that In the event of vigorous action be-
ing necessary to support a new o

alone will have to undertake II. Con
sequently. the wisdom Of calling In the
representatives Of the other Govern.
ments liz being questioned on the ground
that their participation may hamper
the United States.
The fear here IL that support OF some
new and independent group In Mexico
will merely prove to be a circuitous
route to armed Intervention by the
United States.

Hostile to CRrransa.

II was demonstrated here to-day that
C%arranza had no advocates In the con-
ferences at the state Department. The
state Department has for months been
dissatisfied with his attitude and the
report of Paul Fuller did much TO con-
firm the view already entertained that no
is impossible"
There is reason to believe that one
thing which has huyt Carranza with tho
Administration and his advisers is his
attitude toward the Catholic church
and it's clergy i'm Mexico. Catholic or.
g~anizations in this country have charged
him with harsh treatment OF Cathohc
priests and nuns during the last TWO
years OF strife In Mexico.
The Latin Americans are understood
TO be opposed not only 10 Carranza, but
to the other fractional leaders as well.
Their preferences run In the direction
of the choice Of a new man or the type
o: Diaz, or at least n representative OF
the conservative. or so-cailed Cientinco
element. In Mexico.
The Governments which the Latin
American diplomats represent all tend
more to the conservatism that used TO
prevail in Mexico thar toward the radi-
calism of Carranza, villa n Zapata'
Consequently the point of view OF the
Latin American representatives here Is
quite different from that OF the leaders
in the saddle in Mexico to-day. and
differs even from that of the wilson
Administration. The President is known
To sympathize deeply with the purposes
professed by the revolutionists.

II viii Ala Minority.

II already has been clearly indicated
that Carranza will not lend himself to
the kind OF cooperation hitherto de-
that in any attempt to eliminate him
the United States will be on the side
Of the minority.
The situation Is now beiog compared
to that existing in the days Of Huerta.
when the United States used its utmost
influence to destroy the nearest Up.
proach to a government then In be'Tg in
Mexico.
II Is admitted that Carranza is the
only leader who maintains anything
like a real government in Mexico to-day.
He controls a very large portion Of
Mexican territory. most OF the principal
ports, and is now in occupation Of the
capital. Furthermore. he Is the only
one who has any regular source of gold
revenue. through his control of the chief
seaports.
The plan under consideration by the
United States liz to impose an embargo
on the expectation of arms against the
faction or factions which 1t may seek to
eliminate. and in favor Of the group
it may decide to support.
This. however. is generally regarded
as but a negative Weapon. at best. and
the prediction is made hat II that course
is pursued II will be but n short time
before the United states will be com
PEELED to send troops into Mexico To
maintain the government to which II
has thrown its support. or else see the
situation revert to the chaos OF to-day.

That we must share the doom
Sweet was our life's beginning.
In the spicy meadow-bloom,
With children's hands to pet US
And kindly tones to call.
Today the red spurs fret us
Against the bayonet wall.
What had we done, our masters,
That you sold us into hell?
Our errors and disasters
Have filled your pockets well.
You feast on our starvation.
Your laughter is our groan.
Have horses. then no nation,
No country of their own?
What are we, we your horses,
So loyal where we serve,
Fashioned of noble forces,
All sensitive with nerve?
Torn, agonized, we WalloW
On the blood-bemired sod;
And still the shiploads follow.
Have horses, then, no God?

Typographical Errors

Every week this paper, and
every other paper in the country,
has a number of errors typo
graphical and otherwise. That's
one of the reasons good many
people think the editor should
have been a blacksmith. But
what of the editors viewpoint?
If there's one thing better cal
cuated to turn rosy youth to dod-
der old age than, for instance
to get death notices and weather
predictions mixed 80 that the
darned thing comes out in the
paper, Mrs. William Williams
died last night. She has gone
where it Isle degrees in the
shade with rising temperature
tomorrow, Well-We'd like to
know what it is. Maybe you
think it pleasant to walk down
the street and hear some grin
ming idiot with a head like
German pancake and a brain
like an added egg holding up
the sheet to caustic criticism and
editor to conscientiousless scorn!
Maybe you think it nice for some
member of the vacuum to family
remark that the editor must
make up his paper with a shovel,
Or some Pinhead Percy wonder
why the editor doesn't learn how
to set type No doubt you think
it excruciatingly delicious when
an item announcing that Miss
Merryvale is to be led to the
altar gets into the paper as led
by haltar!" Funny, isn't it,
Yes it is. 1t depends on the
point of view. Some people
may think paralyzed man with
the itch is the height of the re-
diculous, but what does the par
alyZed man think about it? We
are all apt to make mistakes.
Don't forget that. What would
you think if. the editor put some
of your mistakes into the paper?
Remember when old man Hoardit
who shaves himself, came to
church with a fine patch of
whiskers on his chin which he
had overlooked? And when
Miss Precise let the shoe string
on her switch hang down her
back? And how Elder Highup
caught the tail of his long coat
over the neck of the bottle in
his hind pocket and went down
the street showing that some
times the strongest in faith are
tho weakest in flesh? But we
have no intention of telling these
things. As an editor we
wouldn't be much of a hair-pin
if we were bent that way. Just
remember, tho, that we are all
prone to errors, and the next
time you see something in the
paper which you regard as a sure
sign of the editors feeble mind
edness, just say the devil did it,
and, by heck, We'll back you up,

RABID COYOTE Sit
UATION DESPERATE

The rabid coyote situation in this
part of the county is daily becoming
more desperate. Although the govern
ment has taken charge, the territory is
so large that results are bound to be
slow.
At the Sanders ranch, near Golconda,
rabid coyote was in charge from
shortly after dark until daylight A
big freighting outfit had put up there
for the night, and while the driver was
making things secure for the night the
coyote drove him TO the seat in the
wagon. When help arrived, with a
gun, the men were afraid to shoot for
fear of hitting the horses. The ranch
dog was ehewed up so badly that it
was put out of its misery. As soon as
it came daylight the animal was killed.
From Toulouse north, the hills are
fairly alive with rabid coyotes Stock
men are having their buekaroos ride
TIC fields, looking for coyotes and in
fccted stock. In the Willow Creek sec
tion, during the past week, George
Minor killed four, while riding stock.
His only weapon was a hardwood club.
Frank Lamb killed one in the same
manner.
