MONTEREY. MEXICO.
Unfourded Rumors A Peaceful Inaugu'
ration Of New Governor, Etc.

Editor sun Antonio Light:
MONTEREY, Mexico, October 8, lsS5.-
The runIor aloat in San Antonio and
expanded by newspaper correspondents,
because some jim-Crow American arriv-
ing from Saltillo stated that the railway
had train ofseventeen cars in readiness
to bring 5000 soldiers to Monterey to
suppress threatened revolution on the
Inauguration Of Governor Genaro CARA
Garcia, the new Governor-elect, was, as
| then predicted, false, without any
foundation whatever, and a mean class
Of gossip that does much harm to Mex
leo and her good people.
1t is a fact that 1000 troops did arrive
here yesterday, simply removing their
headquarters from Saltillo to Monterey,
Just the same as our own Government
occasionally move troops from one point
to another on our frontier. A thousand
troops are estimated to be worth, in
business way, about $1,000 per day, and
rs Monterey has been very dun for the
past year since the troops were moved
from here to Saltillo, much political in
lluence has been used TO get these sol
diers removed back to Monterey, just as
San Antonio would fight to keep or get
back our troops, In case they were
threatened or moved to some other
point.
On the 81 inst, about 1000 of the lead
Ing citizens in carriages and ON horse
back went out TO Garcia, the home of
the new Governor, and escorted him in
TO the city. What we would call in the
United States, evidence of popularity
with the people. But had some fool of
an American witnessed this ovation, he
doubtless would go oil and report 1t as a
revolution.
This morning at $3.50 o'clock, the new
Governor, G.. Il. Garcia, was installed,
with grand reception, participated in
by all the leading citizens, vice Cantu
Garcia, Ex-Governor, retiring, and
could see no more evidence of revOlu-
ton than could be seen at installation of
Mayor In san Antonio.
United States Consul Robert G.. Camp
bell has been highly commended by the
Department for his action in the Aufde-
monte case, and instructed to present
the thanks of the Department to the
authorities at Monterey for their cour-
teous conduct in the case, which has
been done, and duly appreciated by
| them.
MIR. Sam II. Fisk, Superintendent of
| the street railway of this city, leaves
| this morning for short visit with rela-
| tives and friends In San Antonio and on

DIED.

After four weeks of inteuse suffer,
ing, Mr.. D. f. g. Rankin died last
Wednesday evening at halfpast FIVE
o'clock. He was born in Rutherford
county, this state, December 20,
1923, and consequently would have
been sixty-two years old if he had
lived a few days longer. He was a
living and dying exempli6catiOn of
the truth and beauties of the Chris
tian religion. His life was consistent,
prayerful and as near perfect as IoOr
humanity ever attains, and be had
the respect and love of all who knew
him. Several times during his last
illness he was thought to be dying,
and he thought so himself; but be al.
ways expressed willingness-almost
an eagerness-tO pass over to his happy
home. His last messages were full OF
hope for his future state and counsel
tohis family and friends to- meet him
in heaven. The triumphant death Of
SO good asman, while a sad loss to his
family and the community, is a com
fort and encouragement to all. to live
better lives. His remains. were in
terred in Oakwood Cemetery Thurs.
day afternoon, with divine service at
the grave by Messrs. Lewis, Weaver
and King, pastors of the Cumberland
Presbyterian, Baptist and Methodist
churches. The family request us to
thank their friends for their generous
and unremittins attention during his
illness.

MUNICIPAL MATTERS.
Responses Of Candidates.

Editor Exchange:
Under the ruling of the present
mayor, the questions propounded to
candidates in the. last issue of the Ex-
change, would apply to candidates for
mayor as much as to candidates for
aldermen; but if / should be so for
tunate as TO be- elected, shall differ
with the gentleman on question of
law as 20 the right of the mayor vot-
ing on:all questions. thinks under
the law, the mayor is an executive
and not legislative officer, and con-
sequently has no right to vote ON any
question, only in case of a tie, then
he has the right to give the casting
vote. AS to the question of public
schools, the voters Of the town Of Mi
Ian know that have held the Office of
school director for the past five years,
and during that time every public act
of NINE has been to build up and try
to maintain hetter system cf schools,
and if elected will, to the hest Of my
ability, try to sustain. not only our
public schooIs, hut ali Other public
interests of the 10 WI # Milan
