EXPECT TO COMPLETE REPAIRS
ON MEXICAN ROAD BY AUG Is

From an American extensively con-
nected with mining in Chihuahua. and
who has just come up from there Il
is learned that it is expected that the
Jimenez to Parral branch Of the
Mexican Central railroad VIII prob
ably be completely repaired ready Tor
traffic by August Is This road had
between 90 and 30 kilometers en-
tfreIy destroyed for three months or
more ever since vIIla took and looted
ParraI before coming north to Juarez-
The work Of repairing had TO be sus-
pended for a time to keep the poorly
repaired main line Of the Mexican
Central between Jimenez and chi
huahua City running as well as pos
sfbIe. Trains have been running from
Jiuenez to Dorado station on Parral
branch and all travel between that
station and Parral has been by autos
and trucks.
The repair of the branch means
great boon TO the two or three min
ing companies in the Parral district
so they can get in SUPPLIES and ship
out their ores or concentrates II ap-
pears that the Nillistas are mostly

Oran gemen Of the north and the
Catholics Of the south The people
Of each faith believe terrible stories,
such as were current in the middle
ages about the other. And in Canada.
the same prejudice exists to a less
extent. and the same political capital
is made out Of it.
AS Ulstermen in Belfast brighten
their children with tales Of the hor-
rors Of priestly rule, so in Ontario and
other Canadian provinces attempts
are made, not through the press but
by word of mouth. TO convince voters
that the Catholic church IN quebec IS
up TO all sorts Of political devilment.
