j. 5. CITIZENS
ARE MENACED
Mexican Situation Soon May
Reach the Critical Stage.
Outbreaks Feared.

Mexican affairs are expected to take a
critical turn about the time the Demo-
cratic national convention assemblies at
St. Louis to renominate President Will
son and indorse his policies.
Ofrcial reports from all parts OF the
Mexican republic indicate rapidly
spreading fame OF anti-AmeriCsn feel
ing. The Carranza government, which
advices to the State Department indi-
cate is nearer than ever to the brink OF
q complete collapse, is either powerless
TO suppress the demonstrations that are
taking place, or is making no effort to
suppress them Five different factions
are at present operating Independently
OF the de facto government. all of which,
apparently are taking advantage OF the
presence OF American troops on Mexican
soil to undermine Carranza.
Although both the State and War De-
partments were without any fresh ad-
vices yesterday II was feared that at
any moment news would be received OF
where in Mexico The State Department
has been advised that a Pacific Goa st
mail steamer is due today at Acapulco on
the west coast TO take on the American
refugees there. and arrangements have
been made for the vessel to perform a
similar service at Salina Cruz. No re-
port has been received concerning the
Americans still at Chihuahua
II is now expected that Secretary Lam
sings reply to the Carranza demand for
a withdrawal Of the American forces will
be despatched to Mexico City within the
next few days

Miss Burns made the following state
ment:
The plank in the Republican platform
declaring for woman suffrage was the
first suffrage plank ever adopted by one
OF the dominant parties and indicates
a tremendous national pressure behind
the suffrage movement. The Progressive
the State and the Federal method.
Plank worded Cautiously.
The Republican plank is more eau
tiously worded; but 1t is clearly devised
so as TO leave it open to the Republicans
to support either State or national suf-
frage II they wish to do SO.
Republicans are not anxious, at this
time, to take any stand which will speed
up Democratic action in favor OF woman
suffrage before this session ends. II they
declared for national woman suffrage
they would leave the Democrats nothing
to do. with 4.0ooO0O woman voters in the
national field. but to pass the national
suffrage amendment this session.
Such a record would give the Demo-
Gratis an enormous lead over the Repub-
licans in the twelve suffrage States, but
still the Republicans have 1t entirely in
their power. II they should control the
next Congress, to seize upon the suffrage
issue and make themselves the party OF
enfranchIsement for women"

Little Too Much Amity
What the leaders and delegates are

arise-something that will produce a

The outlook is poor. If the Democratic

At first glance there would seem to

about a Democratic convention, even
when Bryan's hands are tied. Look
