THE MEXICAN SITUATION

Bull nxhts and revolution are the
national Sports OF Mexico. There have
been several years OF comparative quiet
under yenustiano Carranza, and the
revolution which Is now resulting in his
downfall. has been accompanied with
less bloodshed than former similar &C.
curences. Even the reports Of the
massacre at the Santiago military pris-
on and the execution OF Generals Mar
quis Orquizo and Barragan arc stin un-
confirmed. The chief danger TO Mexico
now lies IN the breaking out Of dissen-
sions among the victorious rebels. as
both General Oregon ana General Con
zaIes are said 70 be hankerinE after tho
presidency.
It is generally conceded that Carran1a
did succeed In maintaining some sort OF
order In Mexico. and in View Of this fact
the almost unanimous willingness and
accord in oustlng him IS all the more re-
,n,arkable and must be caused by deep
= and weighty reasons. the chief Of which
. u probably that Carranza had failed to
Keep the promise which he had made
A., concerning a sweeping reform Of land
ownership. On this account the masses
OF the rural population wers estranged
from him.
As far as the United States are con-
re-neh. his overthrow has been received
.Sith a good deal OF satisfaction. as for
long time ne has been antagonistic
orsat least not friendly 10 this country
and the new regime processes great
soljcitude FOR an,icaels relations and
for tho fair treatment OF foreigners In
Mexico. How FAR American influences
contributed 10 Carranza's downfall. Is a
matter about which nothing dcfnlte can
he said at present. as such things. OF
course. are enacted behind the scenes.

LOST LEADERSHIP

President Wilson does not seem TO
realize that he Is no longer the leader
Of the Democratic party. He imagiaes
that his wish is still command to his
party associates. This appears from
the manifesto which ne issued to the
Democrats Of Oregon.
The Democratic presidential primary
elections have caused great disappoint-
ment in Washington. Spontaneous
manifestations OF a popular demand for
a third term candidacy had been looked
for. In place Of this there has been
austere silence or direct rejection by
refusal to endorse the Wilson admins
tration. and tho reSuscltation OF Bry-
an leadership. in direct opposition to
wisconsin. Hence the last desperate
attempt TO recapturc leadership.
Hence also the note OF peSs!mism mp
pearing in a chorus OF utteranc"s from
President wilson's official family. led
by Mr.. Colby's Respondent voice.

charged by Senator Capper, of Kansas.
Is outrageous and criminal. He de-
clared that the net profits Of a large
cotton mill in the south were thirteen
times greater in 1913 than IN 1916 and
: times greater in 1919 than in 1918
and told Of other cotton mills making
from 100 to 800 percent dividends.
Attorney General Palmer probably has
strong political reasons for not prose-
cutting these southern profteers.

ers are still vested in the administra-

Fur trappers are still able to make money in Indiana and thou sands of dollars are paid annually for the belts of animals to be found along streams in this state. Two Jackson county trappers report having sold belts taken in26 days for SI,1o One days catch sold for So2. Included in the sale were 487 muskrat belts at an average of S2.6o; ten raccoon, at all average of $5; thirty-two skunk, averaging S4 and forty-hve opossum at an average of ST. 30. The open season for opossum, fox, beaver, otter, raccoon and skunk is from Novem- Der 20 to February 2. Muskrats and mink may be taken from No- vember I to April I. Irvington boy trapperS are even making Christmas money on muskrat and rabbit pelts. These Indiana furs pass through many hands before they reach the markets, ready to attract the attention of garment buyers. Furs have advanced in price, but fashion says that fur shall be worn and the sales have not diminished. The prices paid trappers are higher than that of a few years ago and the general in- crease is reflected all along the line. Indianapolis News.

The Shangle party have been up the river since October 15.

Dawson News: Arrivals from points along the West Dawson trail, where they have been hunting recently, report that a number of stray dogs have been eating car casses of caribou which various hunters had killed and dressed and left beside the trail while awaiting conveyances to bring them to Daw- son. In some instances the dogs consumed whole carcasses and in others they chewed off only DOT tions of the animals. It is believed that some of them are stray Indian dogs. They were last seen about five miles from town.
