OFF BY CITY FORCE.
Effort Is Being Madd to Stop Spread
of Disease and Make Waxaha-
hachie Spotless - City
Wide Movement.

The cleanup campaign inaugural
ed for today started early this morn
ing when the city teams and force
began to make the rounds picking
up trash. The various Committees,
appointed to look after the work.
are making determined effort to
get the cleanup idea on the hearts
OF the people. They want the effort
to be city wide in scope in order that
much good may be accomplished.
A great many people were out rak-
ing and scraping about their premi-
ses early today so there would be
some evidence of compliance with
the cleaner Waxahachie proclama-
ton. Others have just deferred the
matter to a more convenient time.
They mean to join the movement
and put their premises in proper
condition.
This afternoon the committees will
make the rounds to see how general
the cleanup movement is. If the
people are raking out the trash and
piling ii into the alleys they will
keep the wagons running until it is
hauled Off.

PREMIER IN DUBLIN

Dublin, May 12-(Via London )--Premier Asquith arrived in Dublin today, and was taken in an automobile to the vice regal lodge. The premier's programme for the day was first a conference with depart mental chiefs and afterward consultation with General Maxwell in regard to the military situation, which is we'll in hand,
 It is reported that in all likelihood a proclamation will be issued shortly abolishing martial law. the provisions of which have been greatly modified in the last few days.
 The situation in some parts of the provinces Is said to be still rather dis turbed and it is likely that military control will continue in these districts for sometime longer.
 Premier Asquith also intended to meet several civilian deputations so as to learn at first hand their ideas concerning the reconstruction of the destroyed portions of Dublin and per haps to formulate a plan for compen- sation.
 There is relief apparent among the population at the promised cessation of executions which were beginning to cause considerable irritation
