REVOLUTION HELD REAL ONE
Charles J. Sclinabel, Just Back
From Mexico, Tells of Incident.
There Is really a revolution In Mex
ico." aald Charles J. Schnabel. who re
turned from a trip to Southern Cali
fornia and the accne of hostilities in
Mexico last night. "From what I could
learn, the poor people charge that ths
Dlax government has granted valuable
concessions to the Rothschilds in
France and to American trusts, and
that the poor are becoming- poorer. It
la very difficult to obtain an exprea
slon from residents of Mexico on the
revolution. You do not know when
you are talking- to a supporter of the
government or an Insurrecto. Tuey
listen to what you have to aay. shrug
their shoulders and mak no reply.
"In Tla Juana. Just across the line,
where Mr. and Mrs. Alexander Kerr, of
Portland, were arreated by the Mex
ican offlclale while they were taking
pictures, there are unmistakable algns
of a aerlous condition of affairs, al
though the town Is such a small place
that It Is difficult for me to understand
why the revolutionists should desire
to cupture It. To me It would not seem
worth while. But It is a fact that tha
women and children have been aent
f-oni Tla Juana a'-ross the line Into the
United States and after 8 o'clock at
night no one Is allowed out of doors
In Tia Juana.
"The Kerr Incident was not aa serious
aa made out in dispatches, and I bad
nothlnir to do with their release when
they were taken In custody. Mr. and
Mrs. Kerr were going- around In Tla
Juana In an automobile, taking pic
tures. TtTey had taken a picture of
the Jail and a picture of the officers.
About 4 o'clock last Wednesday after
noon, while Mr. Kerr waa taking- a
picture of the bull ring-, a shot was
heard from the direction of the revo
lutionists' camp, about IS miles dis
tant, and Immediately a shot was fired
by soma government soldiers. It was a
signal of some kind. An officer took
Mr. and Mrs. Kerr Into custody and
brought them before the Prefect of Po
lice. They were only detained 10 or
li minutes and permitted to go and
take along- their films. I waa telling
of the incident In the hotel and had no
Idea that the story would be sent
broadcast over the land as It was.
"When we crossed the line Into Mex
ico, Mexican customs officers searched
our automobile to see that we were
not carrying; arms. When .we returned
we stopped at a crude stockade that
had been built for the protection of
tha Inhabitants fn the event of an at
tack. We were accosted by two of
ficers. Our chauffeur was a friend of
Harry Dell, the American ex-member
of the United States Marine Corps,
wn had been arrested with two others.
Dell had been In prison three day and
during- that time had not been allowed
to communicate with anyone. In my
presence, he wrote hi right name,
which Is Gilbert B. .Davis. I do not
know why the dispatches have not
published this fact.
"Davis was released, but refused to
leave, saying- be wanted to stay and
see his two friends through. Later h
was arrested again and sent to Ensen
ada. I understand when prisoners are
sent.to Ensenada. that Is the finish. In
my opinion, uavis is oniy loomng tor
adventure, although I am told many
Americans are enlisting in the forces
of the revolutionists."
Mr. Schnabel was accompanied by
Mrs. Schnabel and they both enjoyed
the trip, especially the visit to the
scene of the Insurrection.

HEYBURN Of! DEFENSIVE
IDAHO SENATOR OPPOSES S
IMPORTANT MEASURES.
Almost Slngle-Handed, Filibuster
Is Made Against Direct Election,
Reciprocity, School Land Bill.
OREGONIAN NEWS BUREAU. Wash
ington, Feb. 28. Senator Heyburn,
of Idaho, Is determined that the
Senate Shall not vote upon the
Borah resolution, proposing an
amendment to the Constitution pro
viding for the popular election of Sen
ators: he haa undertaken to prevent
a vote on the Canadian reciprocity bill,
and he has declared that the Senate
shall not vote upon the bill favored by
all Western Statea, permitting them to
exchange sections 1 and 36 In forest
reserves for lands which they can dis
pose of.
Senator Heyburn has been filibuster
ing against the school land bill for
more than a year and will kill It. He
waa the first Senator to attempt to fili
buster against the popular election res
olution, and It now looks aa though he
would kill that. The Canadian-reciprocity
bill la his latest victim, and while
there are other Senators willing to
Join him in filibustering that measure,
the parliamentary situation is such
that he probably will not need much
outside aid. s
The rulea of the Senate make it pos
sible for one Senator, out of 92, to pre
vent a vote upon measures in which the
entire country Is Interested and whose
passage Is demanded by a vast majority
of the people. The Senate rules permit
unlimited debate on any subject. They
also make It Impossible to fix a time
for voting on any pending measure ex
cept by unanimous consent. This ren
ders it possible ior a single senator,
who fa long-winded, to prevent fixing
a time for a vote In the first place, and
then talking the bill to death. If con
sideration Is Insisted upon.
On a straight-out vote on the merifa
of the Issue, a good majority of the
Senate would favor a constitutional
amendment for popular election of Sen-
tore: a very material majority or tne
Senate la in favor of Canadian reci
procity, and every member of the Sen
ate except Mr. Heyburn is In favor of
the school land exchange Dili.

ance by the American Government of

THE EYE
The abuse this delicate piece of
machinery Is subjected to is alarm
ing. It gives its warnings of these
abuses, and how little attention is
paid to the.e warnings.
"Nature in Its work.
Did the very best It knew how;
But mankind in this busy world,
8ays. 'I'll not attend to it now." " -
When one stops to meditate and
considers what a blessing it is to
have two such pieces of machinery
in perfect condition and working
In unison, is H not a crime that
more care and attention is not
given to Nature's endowment? it
is only after Nature has repeatedly
sounded its warnings aernlnst these
abuses, and no attention being
paid to the m, Nature collapses.
The- machinery stops its splendid
work. Then Science and Skill Is
called upon to repair that which
can never be fully restored.
Science and skill can do wonders,
are doing it every day, tut when
one pauses and reflects, that dur
ing a whole lifetime. Nature only
endows us with one pair of eyes,
should not care and consideration
be given them?
Nature's warnings should he
heeded and thanks to the Almlshty
he given that lie endowed human
ity with such a blessing. I
