McMahan Not the Nominee-Old
Man Blank Defeated Him.

RS
McMahan is the nominee of the
Republican party for the legisla-
ture?
To begin with, the committee
which went through the farce of
ordering the nomination for this
position to be made, along with
the officials who were to be elect
ed in the August election, acted
without authority, and,as has been
fully shown, was bogus commit
tee, and when they took snap
judgment and ordered the farci-
cal nomination to be made at the
time it was claimed to have been
made; it was unheard of in this
county and without precedent, and
was made solely at the dictation of
Hooper and those who carried out
his instructions.
This man McMahan is the same
man who refused to allow the
people to select their own county
chairman, and said no one but the
committee could vote on that
question. This was at the time he
notified the public Of his advent
into politics. The reason for this
unheard Of action was because
Hooper feared that unless McMa-
han was rammed down the
Threats of the people he would
have opposition and be defeated.
Then the farcical primary was
held and $500 votes were cast,
and how many of them voted for
McMahan? The great number
1869. Old man Blank beat him
about 500 votes in his own So
called primary, and many of the
votes cast for him were bought
with the money of the ring. In
other words, 1900 voters refused
to participate in this bogus pri.
mary, and by so doing repudiated
it. Then again, the grand jury
following this secalled primary
met and found it to be illegal, re
fused to indict any person for sell
ing his vote or for voting illegally
So this famous primary was agail
repudiated.
Then came the August election
} and what was the result? Th'
people again repudiated the pr
mary by defeating a majority Q
the so-called nominees, nominate
in this bogus primary in whic
the people refused to vote and i
which Mr.. Blank defeated Bah
Oscar by abont 500 votes. Thu
twice at the ballot box the peopl
declared by their votes that tn
primary was bogus, was withou
binding force or power, and hav
refused to recognize it in any wa,
McMahan's friends, some {
J them at least, have recognize
: these facts and have talked abou
taking steps to have another pr
mary called in order that a legs
nomination might be made, but
was not done for the simple fat
that McMahan henchmen knev
he could not be nominated in
primary held by law and with a
opponent in the field. So the
have decided by the help of Tn
Newport Times, the filthy, dirt
sheet which ought not to be allow
ed to come into decent home,
force McMahan on the peopl
whether they want him or no
and because the ring says it mus
be done.
McMahan has no claim to thi
nomination and the people wi
again teach him at the ballot bo
in November that they, and the
alone, have the power to nominal,
and until they do it legally ther
s noa nomination. Baby Oscs
can't force himself on the peopl
in thislway,'nor can he ride in 0

 PEACE CONFERENCE
Will Relinquish Post Pro- yided General Villa Re tires to Private Life.
 Explains Motives

Mexico City, October 27.-venus- tiano Carranza has submitted his resignation to the Aguas Calientes convention. His offer to relinquish his post as supreme chief of the na- tion, however, is conditional on the retirement to private life of Gen. Francisco Villa.
 In offering to resign, General Carranza said he was actuated only by the highest motives of patriotism and that acceptance or rejection of his offer must depend on whether or not his elimination would contribute toward peace. and the further anca of true democratic ideas. Discussing the resignation, high government official said today:
 General Villa has charged General Car ranza with being self-seeker who de- sired to take advantage of an accident and perpetuate himself in power Car ranza now shows his good faith by declar. Ing that If the personalities of himself and Villa are to be check on peace and to democratic progress in Mexico City, they should both step down and out As you Americans say, It is now up to Mr. Villa
 "The followers of Carranza are willing to let history judge by this act of disinter- estedness on his part, for we can make no greater sacrifice in the interest of peace and patriotism

yesterday. French infantry, aided by monitors, accepted the task.
 '.When the Belgians undertook the defense of the Yser." the dispatch con tinues, they held it for week Then by sheer weight of artillery and men the Germans pushed them back, but not before they had paid the full price of the temporary gain.
 At least two army corps faced the
 Belgians. Their object was to force
 them right into France and thus turn
 the allies left. It cost the Belgians
 thousand casualties to prevent this.
 It Is reported on reliable authority that
 the German Emperor had placed eight
 army corps in this part of the field
 Their losses have been frightful; their
 successes virtually nil.
 Towards the end of last week the
 situation was doubtful; now there is no
 reason to fear failure. On the con-
 trary first class success may be locke l
 for. which will place the Germans final
 ly CT the defensive in the west. Great progress is being made in the reorgan- iza.ion of the Belgian army" Brigadier General Beyers was also a noted figure in the South African war, and was chairman of the verening peace con ference. Last September he resigned as commandant general of the Union defense l force before his disapproval of Great Britain's sending expeditions to conquer German Southwest Africa.
 Having put down Lieutenant Colonel Maritz's rebellion in the northern prov 1 ince of Cape Colony, the government of the Union of South Africa now faces a far more serious rising.
 According to an official report today armed rebelious commanders already are in rebellion. The union government has issued a proclamation announcing these events and explaining that it was aware of these rebellious preparations, and that it had | taken steps to preserve peace without I bloodshed.
 "Now," continues the proclamation. ''the I duty of the government is clear. It is de- l termined to deal with the matter with a 1 firm hand and is taking necessary steps | The great majority of citizens in every province of the union are thoroughly I loyal. When they are aware of the situa- l ton they undoubtedly will give the gov ernment every assistance in restoring or I der and will abstain carefully from giving
 the rebellious movement encouragement or support
 l Citizens are called on to be on the alert , and give the government information and assistance and those who are guilty of disobedience under the defense act arc advised that no action will be taker against them if they remain quietly al home.
 l General De Wet is the cavalry leader who gave the British so much trouble in l the South African war. It was announced 1 he had offered his services to England General Beyers resigned command of the I union forces when Premier Botha decided
 to take up arms against Germany.
