El Paso.—General Francisco Villa,
dominant leader In northern Mexico,
has denounced the central govern-
ment headed by \enusilano Cananza
and announced his independence in a
statement sent to the Associated
Press.
This placed the state of Chihuahua
In open revolt against the party in
power at Mexico City as well as Son-
ora, the next border state to the west-
ward, where Governor Maytorena pre-
viously had proclaimed his indepen-
dence of the constitutionalist party as
represented by Carranza
Villa’s statement asserted that, be-
sides Chihuahua and Sonora, Zacate-
cas and a part of Coahuila. Carranza s
native state, had joined the uprising.
Details of the Affair.
Washington—Advices to the war
department on the Villa-Carranza split
said Carranza was concentrating his
forces at Zacatecas, and Villa s army
was gathering at Torreon. Railroad
communication between these points
has been severed.
General Carranza has informed the
United States government he will not
attack General Villa but will order his
forces to be on the defensive and re
sist attack.
The first chief’s communication de
dared the national convention would
he held as scheduled on October 1,
when a provisional government would
be established which he hoped would
be satisfactory to the United States.
John R. Silliman. American consu-
lar representative, and the Brazilian
minister conferred at length with Car
ranza and were shown the message
from Villa disacowing Carranza’s au-
thority as first chief.
At the constitutionalist agency
there were intimations that Carranza
might send a peace commissioner tc
confer with Villa.
Nothing short of a postponement of
the convention and a system of rep-
resentation satisfactory to Villa, it is
believed will induce the northern gen-
eral to change his course. However,
hope that General Carranza and Villa
would peaceably adjust their differ-
ences and avoid a second revolution
was expressed by high administration
officials.
Zapata Refuses to Send Delegates.
Already Zapata has refused to send
delegates and officials woud not he
surprised if Zapata and Villa joined
forces against Carranza. Together
they would have about 60,000 or 70,000
men. Carranza indicated to the Amer-
ican officials who conferred with him
that irrespective of the Zapata and
Villa factions, a large part of the con-
stitutionalists forces would be repre-
sented. Official reports indicate that
the convention will be loyal to Car-
ranza if the present system of repre-
sentation is not changed.
It was officially stated at the White
House that the latest troubles be-
tween General Carranza and General
Villa would not alter the plans of tho
United States to withdraw troops from
Vera Cruz or the status of the em-
bargo on arms. No date had been
fixed for moving the troops.

Shows the Folly of Toting a Gun.
A little sermon on peace by Homer
Hoch: “Old Bill Jones always carried
a gun or two, and by much practice—
when he should have been at work—he
hecante a crack shot. He said that he
didn't propose to be caught unpre-
pared, and that he went armed in or-
der to keep out of trouble. But old
Bill Jones was in more brawls than
anybody, and was finally gathered to
his fathers by a gent who was a little
....... Quicker on the trigger. Nations have
OTHER NEWS OF THE NEW STATE been proceeding on the Bill Jones
__ theory. 'This theory—played up strong
by the Honorable Krupp and others—
has been that in order to Insure peace
they must be ready to fight the world
on a moment's notice. But the nations
are just like old Bill. The Bill Jones
theory is ready for the junk pile. —•

Oklahoma City—At the cotton
meeting here last week, It was decided
that the best method of taking care
of the present cotton situation would
be to appoint a committee from each
congressional district, and that these
committees shall be given full charge
of the “Buy-a-Bale* movement in their
districts. A motion by G. A. Ramsey,
member of the state board of agri-
culture, to this effect, and an amend-
ment to the motion which stated that
the committees should consist of a
banker, a farmer and a merchant, met
with the hearty approval of the meet-
ing, and the chair ordered that such
action should be taken. Those wish-
ing to buy a bale of cotton will be ask-
ed to make their purchase through the
committee in tho district where the
cotton is bought. The committees, in
addition to buying cotton, will arrange
for storage facilities and will dispose
of the cotton whenever the market has
been stimulated to such an extent
as to make the sale profitable or at
least to prevent any loss to him.

rious congressional districts are as

ERUPTION COVERED BODY
321 Lee St., Hampton, Va.—“In July
of last year the eczema made its first
appearance on my fingers and before
the last of August my body was com-
pletely covered. I was unable to sleep
at night the itching was so severe. I
had to take sleeping medicines sev-
eral times a week to get any sleep at
all. It broke out as a rash and some
of the eruption turned to boils. My
chin was covered and I had several
boils on my face. My hands looked so
that I had to stop school and my
clothes Irritated the eruption so much
that it kept me scratching all tho time.
I could not stay in a warm room and
I could not put my hands in warm
water at all.
