MEXICO CITY, July 25.-(P-0b-
RECON leaders appeared to be spnt
today over the continuation of Pres

Antonio Soto Y Cana. agrarian
leader. when asked If the provisional
president would be General Gales
replied:
"A constitutional president who
continues in power as provisional
president directly violates the con
stitution which prohibits re-elec-
ton"
The demand has already been for
mulated that Gales continue IN Of
flee after his term expires on De

controls that body. has placed him
self on record as predicting that
either Gales or Aaron SaenZ. gov

the government until elections can
be held in 1880.

So insistent are they that 0~bregon's

There are some people who insist

There are sure to be some members
of a family who elect to take their
baths before breakfast. rather than later
In the day. Such division of times is
a great help, Then there are others
who choose to take their dip just be-
fore retiring, rather than before dress

The mother often finds it suits her
pleasure most to take her plunge when
the hardest part of the days work is

the finishing up of certain household
tasks. then battle. dress. and be ready
for the quieter work of sewing, darn

Where there are several to take baths

Today in
Washington History
BY DONALD A. CRAIG.

July S, 1S6l.-President Lincoln sent
to Congress today a message explain
ing his course in the present crisis and
stating his purpose to use the military
power of the United States only for the
restoration and preservation Of the
rights and liberties of all It's citizens.
The entire absence of partizan political
feeling. which characterizes the mes
sage will greatly strengthen the cause,
it is felt by all those who love the
Union. The message, although pro-
mulgated under circumstances that
might almost justify the manifestation
of indignant hostility to the South on
the part of the Federal Government,
breathes spirit of frank kindness 10
and continued confidence in the people
of the South
ut was with the deepest regret" says
the President, that the Executive
found the duty of employing the war
powers, in defense of the Government,
forced upon him. He could but per-
form his duty, or surrender the exist
ence of the Government. No COM
promise by public servants could in this
case be cure: not that compromises
are not often proper but that no pop
ular government can long survive a
marked precedent that those who carry
an election can only save the govern
ment from immediate destruction by
giving up the main point upon which
the people gave the election. The peo-
pie themselves, and not their servants,
can safely reverse their own deliberate
decisions.
LAS a private citizen the Executive
could not have consented that these
institutions shall perish; much less
could be in betrayal Of so vast and
sacred trust as these free people had
confided to him.
He felt that he had no moral right
to shrink. not event to count the
chances of his own life, in what might
follow. In full view of his great re-
sponsibility, he has so far done what
he has deemed his duty.
"You will now, according to your own
judgment, perform yours. He sincerely
hopes that your views and your action
may so accord with his as to assure all
faithful citizens who have been dis
turbed in their rights of certain and
speedy restoration of them under the
Constitution and laws.
And having thus chosen our course.
without guile and with pure purpose, let
us renew our trust in God and 60 for
ward without fear and with manly
hearts"

French psychologist, also subject to this
reversal of direction illusion, wrote on
the matter, and found that while by

persons who had 80 degrees reversais
