 The auditorium where Col Roose- Ncr spoke was packed, and he was given tremendous ovation there and along the route from the station to tue hotel. He spoke for an hour, ami did not refer 10 politics. He told about the methods pursued in secnr- ing the Panama Canal. which he de clared to have been i'll every respect in conformity with nationai integrity. He complimentod Senator J. P. Clarke eff Arkansas for the part he took in the diplomatic relations with Colum- bia, declaring that if it had not been for the splendid work of the Arkan- sas Scnator the work would have bcc, delayed two or three years longer.
 Col. Roosevelt declared that the time has come when consummation must succeed agitation with refer ence to tine Mississippi, a problem vi- tally affecting all the people Much money has heretofore been wanted in indefinite projects, but now they must all be correlated and considered as whcle. The plant and organization at Panama should be trnsferred to the Mississippi valley and used in deepening the channel, strengthening the lcvees, providing great reser- v0irs on the headWatcrs, preventing floods, and conserving excess waters.
 Rev. Andrew Gray, Of Pekin, lli, Dean Nathaniel Butler of Chicago University, Former Congressman El- lis of Kansas City were among the other speakers of the day.

fought desperately, they ran out Of

TROOPS ARE HELD BACK;
CRITICISM is TAFT FEAR

WASHINGTON, Aug. 30.-Adverse
criticism of the state department
Central American policy during the
closing hours of the last session of
the senate, with intimations that an
American army would be sent to Mica
ragua soon after congress adjourned,
are believed by several officials here
to be the reasons that actuated Presi-
dent Taft Wednesday night in revok-
ing the order sending the Tenth in
fantry from the canal zone to Mica
ragua.
All authorities on international law
in the state, war and navy departments
are practically agreed that there is
no technical difference between the
khaki-clad soldier and the marine or
bluejacket when employed as land
ing force in a foreign country
But there is a public sentiment
which invariably associates the land
ing of soldiers with actual warfare
and permanency of purpose. On the
other hand, marines and bluejackets
are so frequently called upon for the
most temporary and eXigent service
as to excite little comment.
From a military point of view, it is

said at the state department, the ef
feet of the executive order will be to
slightly retard the assembly of a suf-
ficient American force in Nicaragua
to insure the maintenance of commune
cation between the American legation
in Managua and the warships at Co
rinto, 20 miles away.
1t is not believed that American lives
will be in great danger for the next
two or three days, especially as knowl-
edge of the purpose of the United
States to use any necessary amount
of force to accomplish the purposes
announced by Minister Weitzel is fully
known to the rebel leaders.
The navy's reinforcements are be
ginning to report their arrival in Mica
ragua. The gunboat Denver arrived
at Corinto Tuesday, but the dispatch
announcing that fact to the navy de-
partment did not reach here until
early today. Besides reporting the
arrival OF the gunboat, the dispatch
/ said the cruiser California was to land
yesterday about 400 marines and blue
Jackets at Corinto and steam for Pan
anna to embark the $50 marines which
the Prairie is now speeding to Colon

TOR WHOM TO VOTE

L That there can be no question
with the voters for whom to vote at
the primary election Tuesday, it is well
to impress the facts on the mind:
If YOU wish to support the Progress
i've movement and Roosevelt and John
son, these are your candidates:
For congressman-S. c. Evans Of Ri
verside.
For state senator-John n. Anderson
If Santa Ana.
For assemblyman-H W. Moore
house of Heber or Frank Birkhauser of
Brawley.
If you wish to support the reaction
ary cause and Taft and Sherman, vote
for:
For congressman-Lewis R. Kirby of
San Diego.
For state senator-Charles c. Chap
man of Fullerton.
For assemblyman-no candidate.
The Democrats are apparently con
sidering the congressional and senator
ial contests hopeless, but James w.
Glassford. candidate for assemblyman,
hopes to make a showing.
The Socialists have a full ticket in

IN MEXICO
ARE WARNED TO GO

Ell PASO, Aug. 30.-Anti-American
and anti-foreign demonstrations will
occur September 16 i'll Mexico, ii the
threats Of Gen. Emilio Campo of the
rebel army are carried out. AT San
Geronimo mines in Sonora, General
Campo made the statement that all
Americans and other foreigners re-
naming in Mexico after September Is
will be slain. This report was brought
from San Geronimo mines by Thomas
Holland, eX-ranger Of the Arcoona
force and now foreman of the mines.
Upon his arrival in Douglas, Holland
reported to American Consul Dye Of
Aqua Prieta, and he at once communi-
Gated the threat to Washington. This
is believed to be the reason for the
message to General Steever, command
ing the department of Texas, asking
if he would need more troops to han
die the situation.
Campo has a force of 400 men in
the northern part of Sonora and they
are said TO be in an exceedingly ugly
mood toward Americans. Anti-Ameri-
can demonstrations are feared at any
time.
Ell Tigre. one of the richest mines
in Sonora, is to be the next victim
of the rebel lust A force of men, be
lieved to be under ROjas or Campo, is
now marching on El Tigre and all Of
the foreigners are preparing to leave.
They are said to number more than
300.

BRAWLEY ENTERS UPON
BIG PUBLICITY CAMPAIGN

BraWley News: At banquet given
TO the Brawley business men Friday
night at the Bungalow Hotel by that
indefatigable publicity promoter,
Charles w. Kays, pledges of 500 a
month for year were given for a
campaign intended to place Brawley
in the limelight among the progressive
cities of the Southwest.
The sum of $50 month for pub
licity campaign had already been
pledged by the real estate men of the
city As only 800 month is deemed
necessary for the campaign as orig
inally planned sufficient money from
the additional funds will be devoted
to the publication of a Brawley book
let portraying in descriptive text and
by illustrative facts and figures the
possibilities inherent in the north half
of Imperial valley.
The banquet served by the Bunga-
low management was appetizing and
under the influence of the good cheer
a "get-together' booster spirit was
shown, gratifying in the extreme to
those who have the welfare of the
community at heart.
BN the construction Ol lue ucN DlS
line canal, the city of Brawley will be
placed in the geographical center of
the Imperial valley, and as the hub
from which the spokes of trade radiate,
is preparing to spare no effort that
will aid in the upbuilding of city and
country
AS contemplated, the campaign will
consist of a comprehensive exhibit OF
every kind of product from the lmpe
rial valley at the Los Angeles Cham
Der of Commerce, with illustrated lee
lures. and weekly excursions to the
garden city,
Los Angeles end of the campaign
while the visitors will be cared for
locally by real estate men.
The No. and No. 5 districts, as
well as the land under the new high
line, present a vast field for develop
ment work. Many thousands of acres
of virgin soil lie untouched. and
through the methods about to be
adopted it is planned to bring thesc
facts to the attention of land seekers
At this time next year. Brawley
should be doubled in population, while
the country surrounding will have its
full quota of inhabitants under present
farming conditions.
The business men of Brawley believe
that this portion of the valley pre-
sents greater agricultural possibilities
than any other portion of the South
west, and they propose to make il
known in emphatic terms.
