dispatches to the state department
Monday.
General Obregon and the committee
which went to the City of Mexico tc
interview the first chief returned to
the convention highly optimistic" &C
cording to official reports.
1t is generally understood that Car
rama informed the committee that he
would not submit his resignation a
second time, leaving it to the conven
ton to reconsider, if it chose, the ac'
ton taken at the recent City of Mex.
leo convention, the minutes of which
were formally ratified by the assem-
bly, at Aguascalientes.
With the arrival of the twenty-eight
delegates representing General Ia.
pata the convention was expected for.

successor to CarranZac Much op
timism prevails in convention circles,
according to official reports, and a
spirit of harmony is distinctly notice

Officials of the Washington govern
ment had no doubt that the two con-
ditions which CarranZa was reported
to have stipulated as necessary before
he would retire, namely, that the ten.
ure of the provisional government be
brief and that he be permitted to be
a candidate for the presidency in the
elections to be ordered, would be sat.
isfactorily met by the convention.
Washington.-General Carranza is
willing to retire from the post of
chief executive in the City of Mexico,
provided General Villa is not instru-
mental in procuring his resignation.
He also wishes to be assured that his
retirement will not mean the ascend.
ancy of Villa.
This explanation of Genera Car
ranZa's position made informally at
the City of Mexico was received by
the American government Friday.
General CarranZa indicated his will
ingness to have the convention re-
quest that both he and Villa give way
to a neutral for the provisional presi-
dency.
In the meantime, however, official
reports to the state department told
OF the advance northward of several
thousand Carranza troops. Carranza
representatives said THE was not for
purposes of attack, but Precautionary
defense in case the convention dis.
agreed and Villa moved his forces

Carranza's attitude toward the con.
vention has kept the delegates in sus.

it right. You started this, Mr.. Coch-
ran. First, you gave us The Day

that he gave for the Catholic church.
Shall we accept Christianity only
for it's Golden Rule? Why even the
Golden Rule is not their invention. 1t
was taken from the old testament
and given a different form. And if we
want to be real followers of the past
(as believe religions are) we would
have to accept the old testament as
our religion instead of the new one.
Can there be real brotherhood be-
tween different religious people?
When men disagree on one subject
there will surely come another dis
agreement and third, and fourth;
and where there is disagreement
there is no brotherhood.
Of course, you are careful in your
writing. You always say that you
don't wish to influence anybody. This
is your opinion But, non-infuenced
men are dead men. And the reason
we are, in the twentieth century, so
far behind civilization, is because we
have so many influential misleaders.
Why not leave all the religions of
the past as things of the past? Rel-
gion has played its part in the evo-
luton of men, And now think they
are out of date. The sooner working
men will let religion, heaven and hell,
take care of itself, and take more
care of their earthly struggles, the
sooner we will have real civilization
and humanity. J. Kernes,

wish to find out whether my mind is
so dull, or your writing is so high
and deep, or it is so poor that it can't
be understood.
Your writing is woven through with
Christianity. You are Christian and
you say so. You preach brotherhood
of men and that Christians can be
brothers with non-Christians. You
teach the Golden Rule and a real
Christianity, but l never found out
what real Christianity is.
If you are a Christian and if you
think that Christianity is the only
thing for humanity, then you wish
to see that the whole world should
accept Christianity. And if this is
the case, why don't you come out

Is Christianity the best teaching for
humanity? Judging by what Chris
tianity has done for humanity, Chris
tianity is bankrupt. Then after 1000
years of teaching the Golden Rule
and brotherhood of men we have so
much hatred between different reli-
gious people think that Christianity

tianity above other religions And at

Tolstoi taught real Christianity in his
last years, and his co-religious broth
