Gently constructed levees on the Mex

ing to A. Il. Martin of Hidalgo coun-
ty, may prove menace to the towns
and land on the U. S. side as these
levees are built to Withstand great
volumes Of water when the river is at
flood tide and is wide enough on the
top to make a good roadway. In
building the levees they were tramped
by mules until they will turn a great
deal of water TO the United States

now that Mexico has been recognized
by the United States, it is the proper
time TO take w and settle this propo-
sition.
