Series Revolutions
Make Confusion i'm
Honduras Republic

Washington, Mar. 3-Widespread
confusion in Honduras due to numer-
Gus revolutions in behalf Of at least
three leaders who aspire to the presi-
dency, was indicated today in advices
received at the state department from
Consul George p. Waller at Ceiba.
The American crusier Denver after
being at Ceiba for several days be-
cause of a situation regarded as men,
acing to American life and property,
however, has now been sent to Tela,
which on Saturday was reported to be
occupied by revolutionists, headed by
General Tosta.
The situation at Ceiba, according to
advices dated March 2, was temper
arily tranquil while n new governor
has been appointed and was said to
he doing his best to preserve order"
Nevertheless the 20 marines and
sailors which were landed last week
at Ceibar to guard the American con-
sulate and protect American lives and
property remain in that city. The
Denver, it is understood, will return
for them as soon as the situation at
Tela permits.
Consul Waller said that Lagos.
commander of the forces Of the De
tacto government of President Gu
tierrez at Ceiba, fled at the outbreak
of fighting several days ago in that
city.
Control of the city, he added. was
then given to one Deleo who in turn
gave the city over to Monica Ter
laya. The latter, the reports said,
was accepted by the revolutionary
leaders who captured Ceiba and are
now in possession of the port.

The executive committee of the
Maine State Grange, Monday. sent
out communication to the subordi-
nate Oranges on the water power
proposition. declaring that it be-
lieves that the six leading water
power companies on the Kennebec
river should have been given the
right to build a storage dam, thus
developing the various Industries
along the river.
The members of the executive
committee of the Maine State
Grange are L. Z. McIntire of East
Waterford. William j. Thompson of
South China, Edwin 7. Clifford OF
Winthrop. +. A. Potter of Bangor.
John E. Abbott of North Berwick
and E. H. Libby of Auburn.
/ Since the Oranges In Maine from
time to time are discussing the So
called water power question. and
since Oranges occasionally are called
upon to pass resolutions regarding
their views upon the question, and
since some comment has been made
regarding the wisdom of the State
Grange at it's last session in refls-
ing to endorse a resolution stating
that "Whereas the State of Maine
owns many valuable water powers,
resolved, that we are opposed to
giving away any more water power
franchises, your executive committee
thought it best to set forth the facts
as they understand them, for your
consideration" says the communica-
ton of the executive committee.
First, the statement in the reso-
luton that the State owns many
valuable water powers is not true.
as we understand it. At least we
have never heard of q water power
that the State owns. This Is not a
matter for difference of opinion. 1t
| is matter of fact that can easily
be ascertained. Each water power
of the State is on somebody's >land.
and the owner has the right to build
a dam and use the wafer as 1t passes
over his land. No one has ever
questioned this right, and until re-

velopment and use.

road, a telephone line. store. a
mill or dam. There is nothing
given away by the State in granting
such permission. and in the past
people of the State have. been more
than anxious to encourage such de-
velopment. We cannot think that
the Grange objects to the State
granting q charter or franchise TO

Tells of Efforts
to MOderniZe u. S.
DEPARTMENT Interior

Hartford, Conn.,, March o.-Na-
ton wide effort to modernize the de-
partment of the interior was describ-
ed by former Governor James
Hartness of Vermont, president of
the American Engineering Council,
before the Hartford section of the
American Society of Mechanical En-
gineers here tonight. He said that
his organization and sixty Sthers of
national standing were in coopera-
ton out of fear that the scheme of
Government reorganization embod-
led on the Brown plan, approved by
the late President Harding, will
fail"
Mr.. Hardness said there were evil
dences that our welfare as ma
ton and as individuals has reached
the highest point under present con-
ditions," adding that he believed our
whole national organization is I'M
stable and cannot even> maintain its
existing standard of well-being. For
this reason, he said, the engineers
of the country, were federalizing for
active participation in public affairs.
Mr.. Hardness said the department
of the interior is archaic and I'M
responsive to national needs. The
public works functions of the gov
eminent, he believed, should be CO.
ordinated within this department
preferably renamed department of
public works, thus eliminating dupli-
cation of effort and waste of vast
sums of money.
Government is hampering indus
tries. said Mr.. Hardness, who attri-
buted unrest largely to the reStrlc-
tive tendencies of political action. He
appealed for cooperation between
the government and the workers.
adding:
"Our restrictive regulations do not
fit industrial and national economics.
They do not fit the true economy OF
today, and they will become a worse
misfit in the future if we do not get
together and devise plan of real
progress, inertia today is the bane
of the state. Teamwork in field and
factory in store and mine. in rail-
ways and in offices, must be an ac-
complished fact If America is to
make the best use of its energies
and resources" The American En-
cheering Council. Mr.. Hartness said,
was mapping out plan of construc-
tive action purposing active parti-
cipation in wide range of social,
economic and political questions.
