Mexico City. The Mexican foreign
minister, Senor I'ortlllo y Rojas, an
nounced It would be Impossible to
agree to the demand of the United
States that the flag be saluted uncon
ditionally, because that flag wns not
Insulted, as It was not flying from the
launch, and because the murines were
set free even before an investigation
and the officer responsible for the ar
rest was himself arrested and held for
trial.
Th foreign minister here announced
i thnt the M xlcnn government would
agree that both flags he saluted, the
American flag first and then the Man

by a protocol signed by American
Charge d'Afl'nircs Nelson O'Rhough

Senor I'ortlllo asserted, has refused
permission to Charge O'Shoughnessy
to sign such a protocol and demanded
an unconditional salute by Mexico,
which Mexico felt waa Incompatible

REPUBLICAN VOTERS
SHOULD BEWARE
Party Should Be Represented
on National Committee
By a Republican
The Republicans or Oregon are en
titled to have a Republican named as
the National Republican Committee
man from this State. C. W. Ackeraon,
who claims to be a Republican, Is a
candidate. He registered aa a Progres
sive January 8, 1914. Then signed petl.
tlop or H. W. Coe to be Progressive
National Committeeman. Then can
celled his registration aa a Progres
sive and registered as a Republican
and Immediately riled hla candidacy
for membership on Republican Nation
al Committee. Has been an Intimate
and convenient understudy or the Pro
gressive National Committeeman and
aeems now to be In combination with
him In an attempt to shanghai tha
Republican organization. His candi
dacy la being actively backed by par
ties hostile to the Republican party
and having personal interests and pri
vate personal grudges to serve. Ills
erratic and excitable temperament haa
frequently led him to flood the col
umns of the press with violent attacks
upon the Republican party and vicious
personal abuse or prominent Republi
cans and lite long residents or the
State
It la a grave nbuse tor pnrtles who
are not Republican to register aa such.
It Is a graver abuse tor outsiders to
attempt the capture of a political par
ty to gratify a personal grudge and
to promote party discord. It Is an
abuse against which fair minded men
of all parties will rlso in protest. We
can norr have a reunited party by
puahlng to the front political hotheads
and men who are political reformers
simply for the sake of office. Having
been a Republican only twenty-four
hours when he announced his candl
ducy for the highest honorary position
In the gift ot the party, Is some Indi
cation ot what Mr. Ackeraon'a motive
wue In reentering as a Republican.
As Hon. Ralph K. Williams Is the only
Republican who Is a candidate for
Republican National Couimltteemun,
. feel warranted in nrgltig till loyal
Repul "cans in the stale to give him
tin Ir earnest and enthusiastic support.
