By OTHEMAN STEVENS.

Ell PASO, Tex, April 27.-"The ad-
ministration officials still seem de-
termined to pull General Carranza
over to General Villas way of think
ing about peace. Yesterday Carranza's
minister of Gobernacion, Rafael Zu-
baran, came down to town from Chi
huahua, presumably on his way to
Washington. He would make no
statement.
Senior Pesqueira, the chief Of the
Carranza mission in Washington, who
is here, spoke freely about the arbi-
tration, indicating that he assumes
Carranza's liking for it. Senior Pes
guerra said:
LAS to what is called the A. B. c.
project of arbitration l am willing
to say in advance of any official state
ment from General Carranza, that it
is an admirable and welcome move
ment. Anything tending toward peace
should be welcomed by parties con-
cerned. This is particularly wise
project as it keeps the matters at
issue in the hands of the republics of
the two Americans"
And then still in line with the peace
theme, Senior Pesqueira added anent
the attitude of our people toward his
chief since the Carranza note to Bry-
an was published:

FRIENDLY TO THE UNITED STATES

ly misunderstood by the America pub
lie. 1t contains nothing that should
be construed as in any way a menace
or indicating any hostile feeling to-
ward the government of the United
States.
1T appears that the phrase in the
note on which this assumption of hos
tile feeling on our part is based, reads
to the purport that never until today,
had our party ceased to desire to avoid
war with the United States.
"A correct comprehension of the
phrasing in question would show that
the phase, whatever its wording
means, that there is no desire to cease
wishing to avoid war, yesterday, to-
day or even tomorrow.
"The intent of the document was to
convey the feeling on the side of the
party that the landing of troops at
Vera ruz was an act of injustice,
which was with dignity deplored, and
because of the lacking of personality
of Huerta in the demand for repara
ton
1.-THE American public should not
construe the document as containing
any Indication of hostility, for none
exists. The letter was simply dig
flied expression of a sense of wrong
done to a friendly nation, maintain
ing sincere desire to avoid war in
the future as in the past"

The very essence Of religion Is get

Rev. B. e. Parker told the three hun
dred Odd Fellows who attended the
morning service at the First Metho-

In parade regalia the lodgemen
marched into the church Just before
the service began, and occupied the
center and north sections of the au-

of the congregation remained seated
while the visitors marched out.
Modern fraternities are based on
stories of great friendship between
men, Rev. Mr.. Parker said. Through
their rituals they, illustrate three fun
damentals, friendship, love and truth.
BY friendship, he said, he did not
mean a mere trifling acquaintance,
but the highest relation between man
and man; that which prompted the
Odd Fellows to care for their sick

.RALSTON DOES NOT
RE-APP0|NT KELLY
Loss of Place on State Board
of Education Not Unex-
Dected.

A dispatch to The Palladium today
states that Governor Ralston has ap-
pointed DR.. George Richmond Crosse,
president of DePauw university, a
member of the state board of educa-
ton to succeed DR.. Robert L. Kelly,
of Earlham college, whose term ex-
pires in May.
The action of Governor Ralston in
deciding to dispense with the SER
vices of DR.. Kelly on the state board
of education, does not come as sur
prise to local educators.
1t has been generally understood
that the governor and the Earlham ex-
ecutive have not held the same views
on the question of the extension of
vocational training, of which Mr.. Raj
ston is an ardent champion, and it is
also rumored that DR.. Kelly's opposi-
ton to the appointment of Superin-
tendent Brown, of the Lebanon
schools, as superintendent of the Rich
mond schools, was not pleasing to the
governor, who is a close friend Of
Brown.

it was given out tfrom that station

Another part of the statement
says:
Every captain of police knows, or
can ascertain readily, what habitual i.
criminals are hanging about his dis
trict, and the saloons or other
places they choose for their resorts.I
can say without hesitation and with

made Chicago their headquarters

of all crimes to ask the maximum
penalty if the accused when arrested
is found to have in his possession a

GAINS POINT IN SERVICE FIGHT
Consumers Electric Company, of Pitts
ton, Obtains Favorable Ruling


The first opinion in q State case
involving an appeal from decision Of
the Public Service Commission was
filed here by Judge McCarrell late yes
terday afternoon. IT came in the suit
of the Consumers Electric Company, of
Pittston, against the Commission and
the Citizens Illuminating Company, of
Pittston, as party defendants.
However, the main issue involved in
the suit is not decided by the Court s
ruling. Judge McCarrell simply holds
that the appeal of the Consumers com
pany from the Service Commission s
decision was taken within the time pre-
scribed by law. 1t was alleged that
the appeal had not been filed in time
When the borough of Pittston and
the Citizens Illuminating Company re-
Gently entered ipto contract for light
ing the streets of the town the Con-
sumers' Company objected to the Serv-
ice Commission approving the contract.
When the agreement was approved by
the State body the Consumers Company
took an appeal.
The Citizens company then asked
the Court to strike off the appeal, de-
claring that it was not filed i'm time.
The Court holds differently. The main
issue in the case will now be presented
to the Court through argument and a
decision rendered thereon.
