A POLITICAL WAR.
Troops Play a Part In the Politics of These
Mexican Towns.

HOUSTON, Aug. I4.-Fighting is Looked
for in the state of Coahuila, Mexico. before
the election for state officials, which takes
place on Sept. Is. There are two candi-
dates for the Office of chief executive
CARA Galan, the present governor, and
Don Miguel Cardnas Of Saltillo. They
are known respectively As Galanites and
the Oppositionistas.
The latter party is much the stronger in
numbers, but Galan has the support of the
state and municipal officials who are all
his appointees The supporters of Galan
have prevented the opposition party from
meeting or organizing clubs, and so AFRO
giant and illegal has their conduct become
that 1t has given rise to much i'll feeling
between the two parties.
This eliminated Thursday in the Oppo-

ClOtheslines should be carefully taken
down as soon rs the clothes are dry In
doing this do not drag them ON the
ground or pull them over the dusty
walks or porches, for they are liable to
be damp and will catch any particles of
dirt that they come in contact with.
This necessitates a thorough cleaning
when they must be used again, or the
risk of making spots on the clothes. Tie
the line up in close bale and put it in
a bag kept expressly for this purpose
Some people leave the lines ont from
week to week, and as a consequence
have TO clean them and take the chances
of having streaks and soils on the clean
clothes, or, worse than this, find them
parted in some weak spot and the wash
spattered and dragging in the mud. The
few minutes work necessary to take
down and put away all lines is time well

THE MONEY STRINGENCY.
Standard OIL Checks Refused For the First
Time.


TOLEDO, Aug. l4-For the first time since
oil was discovered in the Ohio fields the
checks issued by the Standard Oil COM
pany are not honored. The merchants and
boarding house keepers have always read
lily accepted the checks after being properly
Endorsed and have had no trouble in ne
Gotiating them at the Toledo, Findlay and
Lima banks. So common were these
checks that they were used about the same
as currency, and many of them would bc-
come SO worn that they scarcely held to-
gether when they at last got around to the
banks
The fact that the country is suffering \
currency famine has been made apparent
to the oil men in a manner which aston
ishes them. y few OF ht.chrcks issued for
July were accepted by the country mer-
chants, who promptly turned them over o
the banks. Tine latter refuse to issue the
currency on them or to credit to personal
accounts. Some hauhs even refused to ac-
cept them for exchange at = per cent dis
count.
