in the Mexican capital. Late advices
indicate that the danger lies in Zapata
not being able to control his own
troops. In view Of this situation, it in
believed that General Francisco villa,
Zapata s ally, will rush troops TO Mex
leo City to assist in clearing up the
situation.
The Brazilian minister, in charge Of
American affairs at Mexico City, ad-
vised the state department this after
noon that the Carranzista troops with.
drew from the capital Wednesday night.
After the cabinet meeting, Secretary
Bryan telegraphed the British Brazilian
minister at Mexico City, asking him TO
insist that General Salazar, command
ing the Hapatistas in Mexico City,
punish summarily the men who killed
McManus and make reparation to his
family. Bryan approved the action OF
the minister in making informal de-
mand for such punishment. The see
rotary thought it possible that tho
guilty person or persons had already
been punished by Zapata.

HonOring the Bell.
(Waterbury Democrat.)

Forty thousand people waited at the railroad station at Houston, Texas until ? o'clock in the morning, on 8 chilly night, to see the Liberty bell enroute from San Francisco back to Philadelphia. The train was late, and most of them went home then. But 2,000 school children remained, shivering in the cold, until the train pulled in at 3:30 a. m., and climbed aboard the car to touch and kiss the sacred emblem of American freedom. Liberty bell, like a phrophet, has to leave home to gain honor. Most of the citizens of Philadelphia have never seen the bell, but most of the citizens of Houston are glad of a chance to stand in the cold nearly all night to see it. The bell has had much the same experience everywhere through the west. At nearly every city and town going and coming, crowds have assembled to pay 1t honor. It was the first time the bell was ever taken west Of the Mississippi river. After such an enthusiastic and continuous well come, it should not be the last It is much for the great, new, pioneer sec tons of the country to see a relic that reminds them not only of the east from which they all came, more or less remotely, but of their country's early history of which the west has so few visible evidences.

To those who doubt the accuracy of press reports we call attention to the following paragraph under a Bos- ton date line of November 24:
 '"rhe official canvass of the vote cast at the Massachusetts state election on November 2, an- nounced today shows that Sam uel w. Mccall, the republican canci- date for governor. defeated David l. Walsh, the democrat incumbent, by a plurality of 6,S76. Unofficial press returns on the night of the elections gave Mccall a plurality of 6,363."
 Thirteen votes out of the way.- not enough to effect a change in tho election of governor. The press re- port was compiled within eight hours, whereas the official canvass was put together and counted betweer November and Thanksgiving Day little matter of twenty -one days ol three weeks which makes some diff ference in time.

Connecticut Shilpbuilding.
(NeW Haven Register.D

It. may mean little that the re- ,nabllitated Charles w. Morse is after shipyards to the east of New London, but it also may mean much. Not many years ago that was a busy shipbuild- ing district, but of late the building of sailing vessels for the coasting trade has suffered a sympathetic slump with the building of American vessels for foreign trade. If the Morse interests are after the yards, a change must be imminent
 Regardless of Morse, the change is in sight. The Panama canal mas helped. The war has helped. Some of our coasters are coining money in the South American trade. 1t will not be long before the general knowl- edge of possibilities in that direction causes a boom in such shipbuilding as they can do in Connecticut yards. All along our coast from Darien to Ston- ington there are facilities for ship building. Some of the yards have water depth for launching vessels of the largest size. Shipbuilding, once an important Connecticut industry, ought to come back with boom exceeding anything it ever knew before.

When time hangs heavy on tho hands of our philosophers and pro- phets they hie themselves to the public mart and make predictions anent what is going to happen after the European war is brought to a close. For the most part these students of human nature, economics, and stock quotations, in particular, are of the opinion that a tariff war will be declared just as soon as the present colossal struggle is ended. The United States will be fighting in the tariff war to protest its infant in- dustries, such as the dye-stuffs, tho countries of Europe will be waging battle to regain their lost foreign markets. Discriminating duties will be set up by the various nations which in turn will lead to hard feel. ings and the first thing we know the war will be fought all over again. These are the prophecies. Merely that, and nothing more.
