GOV. JOHNSON
ILL FROM HEAT
Saw Analogy in the Progress.
sive Fight and Horse
Race Yesterday.

Racine. Via. Sept. 1l.-aovernor
johnson. who was overcome by the
heat In Chicago yesterday, failed ia
reach here on scheduled time today
but 1t wa. stated he would speak here
later today.
Chicago. Sept. ll.-FIuman interest
on hot day centers more easily on a
horse race than on politics, Governor
johnson decided yesterday at the
Streator fair. where the biggest pro-
gressive meeting Of his one day IL
Hnois trip was held. so he delayed
starting his address until after the
horses were warming up while Frank
II. Funk. the progressive candidate for
Governor Of Illinois was introducing
the California executive. Soon after
the word "go" was given Funk retir-
ed In favor Of the vice presidential
candidate Governor. johnson was in
terested, as greatly in the race as any
one in the grandstand and amid APP
plause he said:
my friends, preach the doctrine
OF the human race; but no race can
compete with horse race. Let us see
the heat out"
Then he faced the horses and saw
the heat run off. Some folks saw an
analogy between the start Of the horse
race and the present presidential con-
test.
A horse with the first name Of Ted
dy was long time getting started and
a black horse kept showing first under
the wire. The race finished with Ted
dy in the lead and the crowd shouted
Teddy WINS" "He always does and
will this year," remarked the gover-
nor. Governor Johnson's itinerary
yesterday carried him through the
scenes Of the famous Lincoln Douglas
debates of 1859. His addresses dealt
mainly with social and industrial ques-
tions. with an occasional reference to
initiative. referendum and recall and
the direct election Of United states
senators. Cheering crowds greeted
him in every city he visited. The trip
was in special train.
At Ottawa the governor compared
the critics Of the progressive party to
the man who put his fingers in a
buzz saw to prove 1t would not run.
"At the inception Of this party we
were told 1t would not Co." he said.
Now those same critics who like the
man that put his fingers In the saw are
saying: Well the 'darned thing will
run."

lay. Rebel raiding along the border
is expected to be ended by the Mexi-
can federals who are to be permitted
to cross Texas and New Mexico to at
tack the insurgents along the frontiers
OF Chihuahua and Sonora.
The United States troops ordered to
the border will move forward just the
same and others at posts throughout
the west are ready.
While a certain amount Of unrest
will exist on the International bound
ary line as long as the trouble in Mexi-
CO continues, officials here are deeply
gratified that the scene Of hostilities
apparently is being removed from the
border. With considerable force Of
federals already garrisoning strategic
towns in Sonora, 1t is expected that
the 1900 additional men will be suf-
ficient to subdue the malcontents or
force them further south.
The Mexican troops will be entrain-
ed at Ell Paso, Texas. and be trans
ported to Nogales. Ariz. Their arms
and ammunition will be carefully seal
through American territory unarmed.
In addition they will be guarded by a
detachment Of United States regulars.
There is much speculation on the
concentration Of rebel bands in the
Ojas mountains and their preparations
for long and hurried march. Mill
tary observers are inclined to believe
the rebel leaders intend either to gain
the Mexican Central railroad and in
tercept the federals before they can
get to Ell Paso or they contemplate
escaping from the federal Gordon
seeking to surround them and are
planning fighting retreat along the
mountains until they can Join the
Zapatistas in the south.
If the latter move Is adopted the
campaign. 1t is acknowledged. would
be a lengthy and costly one. The
rebels are reported to have plenty Of
horses and consequently much better
equipped for such a campaign than
the federals.
President Taft has authorized Com
merciai shipments OF 1000 rifles, shot
guns. pistols and revolvers and 1s3.-
900 cartridges and shells from New
York to Mexico by water. The ship
ments are destined for undisturbed
