The revolutionists in Lower California are said to be levying tribute upon the saloon keepers. This is the first real threat of an actual state of warfare down there. Critics who say the American mil ltary spirit is declining will notice that the flying macihne spirit has to be admonished that it Is too ready to take desperate risks.

The public service commission promises to give us a report on the United Railways before we have to pass upon the pending franchise ordinance. It would be better to wait if we had to wait all summer. Golden Wedding Anniversary. Mr. and Mrs.
