Gomez PalaCio Captured by Rebels
After -Four Days Of Desperate
Fighting General villa Praises
velasco for Resource and Cour-
age and Conduct Of His Men.

GOMEZ PALACIO, Mexico, March
ASSOCIATED Press by Federal Wire
less) -Four days Of terrific lighting,
with heavy fatalities on both sides, and
including three desperate assaults by
the rebels, brought the crown Of VIE
tory to General villa yesterday, and
he moved into this city with his con.
quefing army, establishing headquarters
IN the section Of the city facing Tor.
reOD.
The final and deciding assault was
delivered Thursday, being opened by
a bombardment from the full artillery
strength of the rebel forces, after which
the cavalry and infantry dashed into
the streets and drove the fedefals in
confusion from their trenches.
Fighting Most Fierce Of Revolution.
The fighting is declared to have been
the most furious in the history of Mex.
can wars and revolutions. Villa de.
clared last night that he does not know
the extent of his losses, but estimates
them as very heavy.
The wounded suffered terribly be-
cause Of lack of water and surgical
attendance. Refusing to be carried In
stretchers TO the rear, hundreds Of
wounded soldiers limped after their
comrades on the firing line.
With the taking of Gomez Palacio,
Villa announces that he will next co.
operate with General Herrera, com.
manding four THOUSAND men, who is
under orders to attack Torreon from
the cast. Villa says that the attack
from the two sides will crush the Velas.
co army.
Armored Trains in Battle.
An odd incident of the engagement
Thursday was battle between two
armored trains. They exchanged shots
like two warships, the federal train
finally withdrawing. :.
Villa last night highly praised the
resource and courage Of General Velas
co, the federal commander, and the
conduct Of his men. 49,. 4,
Three times the rebels directed theii
assault upon the federals before they
scored permanent victory. Twice
were they repulsed and forced to retire
only to strike again and strike harder
On several occasions the battle from
spread into Torreon proper.
General Villa was constantly active
throughout the four days of fighting
taking personal charge of the infantry
fire and directing all maneuyers Of tina
arm of the service.
Owing to the scarcity Of water many
Of tho wounded died Of thirst, whil'
the long spell Of uninterrupted fghtinl
made eating almost impossible.

The sentiment among Democrats all
over the State is crystallizing in favor o.
Judge Sam C. Williams for reelection
to the supreme Bench. Judge Williams
viii no doubt be Endorsed in large
number Of the Democratic county con-
ventions, notwithstanding the fact that
be has in the past stood With the indie
pendents in the support OF the State
wide laws. Judge Williams is pre-
eminently the man for the position.
His ability and fitness for the bench are
unquestioned and bis personality COM
mands the highest admiration and re-
spect. The fact that all factions united
on Judge Buchanan will lends its in
fiuence to unite the factions for Judge
Williams. Judge Williams is Demo
crat notwithstanding his affiliations, but
his candidacy is placed altogether on q
non-political basis, and be cannot there
fore be reasonably expected to 60 before
the public as an elector for the nomi-
nees OF his party. We take it also that
no one will question bis motives il he
takes this stand. We trust that the
Democrats OF this county will see proper
to indorse Judge Williams and we sin
cerely believe they will.

Question.

On last Friday night the school board
acting on Mr.. Nute's application for a
three-year term voted for him for ONE
year term, every member except one 50
voting. This being unsatisfactory to
him and some OF his friends, they insist
on leaving the matter to a vote OF the
people, which seems, to lsay the least,
inconsistent, as some Of the very men
who are clamoring to let the dear people
have say, year ago we're bitterly OPP
posed 10 leaving the school board cleo
ton to the people. WhyH Why have
a school board9 II they had voted Mr..
Nute's way, would the minority opposed
to him have been able to get the ques-
ton before the people2 How does any
body know that a majority wants to
take this election out OF the hands OF the
school board9 True, the petition IN
favor OF Mr.. Mute outnumbered the one
against him, but how does anybody
know that all the signers or any con-
siderable number Of them are in favor
OF abrogating the school board in this
arbitrary fashion? CITIZENS.
