MEXICO CITY, June IS. With the
ox-chlaf of the revolutionary forces
oat of the city, the scores of khaki
clad men who havs been wearing; their
cartridge belts filled with from 10 to
IS pounds of ammunition have been di
vesting themselves of their burden, and
today for tho first time since tha tri
umphal entrance of Madero, the oapltal
has assumed Its normal aspect.
These are the days of reconstruction.
President de la Barra la working to
restore national tranquility and Ma
dero Is tendering; him his moral sup
port and giving him practical advice.
By the time he returns from his trip
Into the south it is not Improbable a
great majority of the men he command
ed will be at their former occupations.
Both tho government and tha large cor
porations need laborers, and those who
vint work will have no trouble In get
ting It. Immediately following; Ma
dero s inspection of Flgueroas troops
they will ba mustered out.
Indemnity Bills Loom.
In Zatatecaa tha revolutionary army
la breaking up. Most of tho men are
accepting the offer of a bonus, a horse
and pay at a psso a day since they en
tered the service although a few are
availing; themselves of tha opportunity
to enter the corps of ruralea.
Paying of Indemnity bills promises to
be tha most exacting work before tha
preaent government for soma time. To
day the announcement was made that
tho streetcar company, a Canadian con
cern. Intends to ask damages for tha
car windows broken and the cars oth
erwlse damaged by mobs, which appro
priated the rolling stork from time to
time, particularly the day General Die
was expected to resign and did not.
A negative story comes from the
state of Puebla .There a number of
Spanish Haclendadoe. who suffered
considerable loss, have announced they
will ask for no Indemnity. The claims
of Americans and other foreigners will
ba large, but those of tha Chinese will
bo by far tho largest.
Flower Battle Next.
The Aqulles Club, oraantxed to
further the political Interests of Ma
dero. will take charge of th flower
battle this year and the data haa been
Dxed for June 25. This annual event
usually Is held In the Spring, but this
year tha municipal authorities can
celled It on account of the war. An
other organization announced prepara
tions for the observance of the cen
tennial anniversary of tha execution
of Hidalgo.
Tha subject Of politics la beginning
to be less Interesting, however, since
tt Is becoming more and more apparent
that the first election is to hs a one
sided affair. The withdrawal of Reyes
and his promises to support Madero
leave little room for doubt that the
ex-rebel chief la to have practically no
opposition.
Yankees to Bo Freed.
Ambitious groups of men continue to
give birth to political parties one waa
formed today which will ba called the
Democratic reform party. But witn
tha exception of tha Catholic party,
none has given much promise of a
dangerous fight aad-tha Catholic party
la not being taken any too seriously.
Tbepossiblllty that tha members of
the old group, so popularly Known aa
the Ctenttflcos, might re-enter the field
la not considered menacing by Madero
partisans. Rosendo Pled a. the leader
of the group, now In New York, had
published today In El Imparclal a let
ter In which ba denies his connection
with anr riot to assassinate. Madero.
Another member of the Dlaa Cabinet
expects to leave for Europe tomorrow.
General Mannel Gonxales Coseo. ex
Mlnlster of War. will go to Vera Crux
In the morning, escorted by a rebel

Mexican Governor Says Republic

tjcta ANOGKLES. June IS. "Tha re
organisation of Mexloo will take place
so rapidly that It will startle tha
world." said Diego Redo, deposed Gov
ernor of Slnaloa. Mexloo, today upon
hla arrival here.
"Mexico Is In the position of a na
tion which has received a great wound
and 1 suffering. Let us not talk of
tha battles. They are In tha past and
the bloodshed bss ceaaea. The reor
ganisation will take place within 10 or
Is days. I believe. Within that time
the armlea will ba disbanded, the peo
ple will have returned to their homes
and there win be no more press uis
patchss of bloodshed from Mexico.
"It la remarkable the way peace and
order are being established. A week
ago at Cullacan there were 3700 men.
In four days I'M of them returned to
their homes to take uo their work.
Today there only remain about 1000
still In arms and wltmn a wee uis
number will be reduced to (00.
"The suffering of the people Is pitiful,
but their patriotism that is beautiful.
Soldiers have left their wives and chil
dren to take care of themselves and
their privation will be severe from neg
lected crops. At Zacatecaa. !000 men
ware disbanded. They received only
about IS apiece for the months they
have been fighting, but net one com
plaint waa heard. They told me they
would sow erhst crops they could and
get along as best they might."
fienor Hedo. who expected to return
to Mlnaloa In about two weeks, de
clared that he did not come to the
United Statse as a fuglttva He said
that politics In Mexico waa a "losing

losses philosophically.

MORRIS ISJABGET
Enginesr Blamed for Failure of
Bridge Bond Issue.
COST ALLEGED "LOADED"
Members or Committee Charge That
$500,000 More Than Was Neces
sary Was Deliberately Added
to Estimate of Cost.
Charging that Cdtv. Engineer Morris
deliberately added about S00.O0O more
than was necessary to the cost of the
Greater South Portland bridge, which
waa defeated In the city election last
week, the members of the bridge com
mittee laat night decided to recommend
to tha contributors to the publicity fund
that another" campaign bo started at
once.
That tho span could be built for not
to exceed 1800,500 and perhaps could be
constructed for 750,000. was the belief
expressed by tho members, who met
at the City Hall. -
No resentment because of tha failure
of the bridge project was expressed, in
sofar as the voters were concerned, but
member of the committee did not hesi
tate to show their feelings when It
came to tho discussion of City Engineer
Morris' alleged part in "loading" he
bridge proposition with what they de
clared to be at least BOO,000 too much
cost. ' "
Bis; Expense Xot Favored.
T he very well satisfied," said Dr.
Dav Raffety. president of the brdge
committee, "that wo can build that
span for a rood deal less than $1,000.
000. There waa no reason to ask tha
publlo for $1,400,000 of bonds and I shall
not favor any such sum If wo go Into
the fight again for tha bridge. It can
be cut nearly one-half, in my opinion."
E. I Mills. John Perry, C. H. Feld
many Burt C Jones and A. B. Kautz,
who bora tha burden of the fight by
devoting their time to the publicity
campaign, expressed themselves as In
accord with tho sentiment of Dr. Raf-
"From-the excellent vote given the
bridge," said Mr. Mills. "I am conf'dent
tha people will give us tha bridge if we
put the right price on it. , We got
thousands more votes than the Broad
way bridge two years ago. The great
trouble was that the City Engineer
loaded' the thing- for us: I am satisfied
that an excellent bridge can bo built
for 1800,500 at most."
Plan to Be Conslderedi.
After some discussion, it was decided
by unanimous vote to call a special
meeting for S o'clock next Saturday
night at the City Hall, when all of
those who contributed to the publicity
fund will be present. The committee
will ask these contributors what action
they desire taken. There la a balance
of some 200 and some disposition is to
be made of this.
The recommendation of tho commit
tee will be that thla be used as a
starter for another campaign; that ar
rangement be made at once to put un
der way the second effort to secure a
bridge for South Portland and Sellwood
and neighboring southern sections.

CLOSE TO PORTLAND, WITH ELECTRIC OAR SERVICE
Numbers of people are living in Portland today -who
have seen values grow from $50 to over Quarter Million
Dollars in a single lot. Some invested, have become men
of affairs ; others said prices too high, passing up golden
opportunities day after day. Now they have passed their
earning-capacity age, and remark what might have been,
if I only had invested.
Close-in acreage is undergoing the same trend, and a
few hundred dollars invested rightly now will surely
mean several thousand for you in a few years. Increasing
values will in a comparatively short time put close-m
acreage out of reach of the average investor. BUY NOW,
while the opportunity is still yours. Our 1, 2, 3, 5 and
10-acre tracts will interest you. Prices very moderate;
terms reasonable; $100 to $350. See us today. Call,
phone or write us today.
