MAY ACT IN
 MEXICO SOON
Administration May Not Be Able to Wait UntiI After the Convention.
 Will Rebuke CarranZa.

Washington June 14.-Altaough President Wilson and Seer etary Lan- sing desire to postpone taking any drastic action in Mexican affairs un | til after the Democratic nctiOnal con- ven ion, they may be found to act at | once.
 Administra ion officials desire to a cid Inc charge that they are play lng politics, but no one Will pre- lict what is likely TO happen in Mexico. | The rapid spread Of antiAmerican demonstrations in Mexico, and the in | C1easing seriousness of the economic 1 situation may take the situation out of | the hands Of the administration Anti American agitators are haranguing | the Mexican people, already made desperate by lack of fcod and con- tinued disorders Should General Per shings troops be attacked the Ameri can government is ready to act promp | tly.
 Because of the desire to avoid t..c charge of politics, the reply to General Carranza's S demand for the withdrawal until after the Democratic convention if it is possible to withhold it.
 When the reply is sent, it will be sharp and curt. It will repeat that President Wilson is determined to keep the American troops ill Mexico until the Carranza government shows that it is able to prevent raids on Am erican border towns. It will rebuke the Carranza government for question ing the good faith of the American government Some administration of fcials regard the language of Carran- gas note as intolerably insulting.
 May Call More Militia.
 N conference between officil,s of the State aEd Navy DeparCmants to. day plans were made for the removal O; Americans from Mexico should Am ciican anG Mexican troops clash. Also the possibility of calling out more mi ltia vas discussed,
 Many of.cials believe the CarranZa government is tOttering and that Car ianZa wrote his insulting note with the intention Ct provoking the United States to intervention. It is evident that Carranza is losing control over lis army and government officials. Collectors sent out by the CarranZa government have been Griven out by s,ate authorities and the people State governors have issued decrees assum, 1 il,g authority that belongs to the nat | ional government It is said that Car ranza dare not order officers of his army to do anything he fears they might not want to do, for fear of start ing an open rebellion. It is said that many parts of the army would obey their officers rather than Carranza if a clash come
 The Mexican people, infamed against Americans by continued false reports circulated by Mexican leaders, are in an ugly mood. With the new and alarming developments it is now be- lieyed there is no possibility that Pres ident Wilson will suggest that the diff ferences between the United States and Mexico be settled by an interna- tional commission.

Clyde Scintillates in Athletics.

The following excerpt from an &C.
count of ball game published in the
Fullerton, N. D., Independent will no
doubt be of interest to numerous of our
readers as the hero is Clyde Robideau,
son Of Nels Robideau Of Greenbush,
and a graduate Of the Princeton high
school:
The Feds not only whipped LaMoure
but they put the fxings to Cogswell
and Robideau as we'll, for half the
team was Cogswell boys and the
other half was Robideau. This fellow
who plays center for LaMoure, is
about the best piece of work you ever
seen in the middle garden. He pulled
couple of catches Tuesday that were
truly big league stuff and had he not
been on the job the score would have
undoubtedly been three or four times
as great. Sorry we can't find a job
for him here in Fullerton for he would
make the Feds without much trouble.
Is IS IS The play of real class
was pulled in the fifth inning when
Robideau picked one of his shoestrings
while on the dead run, off Thomas
bat and doubled Paulsen at first.

ever before because the local base

Independent Base Ball Association,
and may be one of the teams selected
to fight for the state championship in
the Twin Cities in September. Two
hundred and thirty teams are in the
race. Of this number 154 represent

are fighting it out in their own league
To assist the managers in arranging
for games with othep nearby teams in
the league, and in arranging tourna-

Ball has divided the state, outside of
the twin cities, into seventeen dis

Soldier visitors from the north are
much impressed with traffic regula-
tons in Mercedes, Texas. The extern
sive use of jitneys between the Llano
Grande camp and Mercedes resulted in
some joy riding in Mercedes, and the
village marshal, an ex-ranger, decided
that traffic regulations must be en-
forced. Getting his lariat, he pro-
ceeded to rope joy riders and make
them bring their machines down to
the required pace. Few reckless driv-
ers desired to maintain speed of so
miles an hour with the possibility of
being lassoed and jerked out Of their
cars, and for the most part the speed
ing has ceased.
