VA PRESENTO CARRANZA
So RENUNCIA.

Aver en- la nOche Sc supo.
en- esta Ciudad, que Venustia-
no Carranza habia presentado
csc mismo dia SUI renuncia an
tie Ia Convention de Aguasca-
lientes. Parece ser que la uni
ca condici6n que >eXige ell lla-
mado primer jefe, eS la de que
Francisco Villa Sc retire tam
bien a la vida privada.
Manifesto Carranza en- SUI
renuncia que da csc paso tan
solo pOr motives de alto pa
triotismo y que la aceptaci6n
de SUI sacrificio deba depender
unicamente de 81 su elimina-
ci6n 0 no cOntribuiria al apre-
suramiento de Ia paZ Y al pro-
greso de las ideas de Ia demo-
cracia verdadera.
I'm alto empleado del go
bierno meXicano, refiriendose
a IA renuncia de CarranZa, di-
10: 'El general Villa ha acu-
sado al General CarranZa de
ser ell unico que desea approve
charse de las circunstanciaS
para perpetuarse en- ell z er.
Pero ahora ell general Carran-
"a ha demostrado al mundo
.entero SUI buena f6 al declarar
que 81 las personalidades suya
Y de Villa son un obstaculo pa
"a la paz Y ell progreSo demo-
cratico en- la Republica meXi-
cana, debieran ambos deScen-
der Y alejarse de la cosa publ
ga. Los partidarios de Carran-
"a quieren que la historic los
iuzgue por este acto de desin-
ter6s de parte suya, puesto
que no pueden hacer ningdn
sacrificio mayor en- favor de la
oaz y del patriotismo."

A CENTURY AND A QUARTER.

Just one hundred and twenty five
years ago today was the first presi,
dental Inauguration in the United
States. The ceremony took place on
the balcony of Federal hall In wall
street, New York, which city was then
the federal capital. Dawn OF inaugu-
ration day was greeted with salvo OF
artillery and practically all OF the 30
900 inhabitants of New York and many
visitors from other cities thronged the
streets. The church bells were rung,
and at noon troop of horse, two
companies of grenadiers and Highland
ers in kits escorted the president
elect in a coach of state to the scene
of the ceremonies. Livingston, chan
cellor of New York state, administered
the oath of Office. Washingtons fer
vent response was met with cheers,
Long live George Washington, presi.
dent of the United States" from thou
sands of throats. From Federal hall
Washington went to the neighboring
