RECALL OF THE JUDICIARY
DEFENDED BY H|NEBAUGH
Illinois Progressive Says That the
Theory Is Condemned Without
Rhyme or Reason.

The solemn truth is we have too many
courts and too much judge-made law
said Representative Hinebaugh. progress
sive, of Illinois, today in the House. de-
Tending the doctrine of the recall of the
judiciary: 1T takes as much heart and
brain for a judge to decide the fate of a
poor devil charged with the theft of a
loaf of bread as it does to determine what
shall be done with the millionaire thief
whose manipulations of watered stock
have brought anguish to many homes"
The recall of judicial decisions is con-
demned by its enemies without rhyme or
reason. They say 1t would lead to an
archy; that it is a new-fangled idea of
Theodore Roosevelt and like all other
theories of government advocated by
Roosevelt and the progressive party. is
inimical to the liberties of the people
regulated by law.

SAN LUIS POTOS| FALLS;
TAMP|C0 TO Be NEXT
Mexican Rebels Seek to Control All
Possible Territory Before
Mediators Meet.

San Luis Potosi has fallen into the
hands of the constitutionalists, according
to information which Secretary Bryan
received this afternoon.
Charles A. Douglass, counsel for Gen.
Carranza, called upon Secretary Bryan
today and gave him information con-
cerning chances for early capture of
Tampico by the constitutionalist forces.
Mr.. Douglass said he had told Mr.
Bryan that his reports indicated that the
constitutionalist army would be in pos
session of Tampico within three or four
days, and. further, that Americans in
the vicinity were satisfied with the pro-
lection the constitutionalists had af-
forded
Rebel Capital Moved.
The three main constitutionalist
armies are preparing today for the
next blow in their campaign. While
Carranza moves his seat of government
from Chihuahua to Torreon, Villa. rebel
chief, informally has appealed for a
suspension of the embargo on arms at
Rio Grande ports. He was quoted as
asserting that would hasten Mexico's
pacification.
Rumors Of the fighting at Mazatlan
crystallized into report that the town
had fallen into the rebels hands. Con-
stitutionalists at Juarez. however. did
not credit 1T.
A spectacular feature Of the battle was
the hurting of a bomb from a rebel aero
plane. 1t fell into street of the be-
sieged city, killing four persons and
wounding eight.
Pushing West Coast Campaign.
The rebel campaign against salina
Cruz. Acapulco and other west coast
cities was to be hurried, according to re-
ports from constitutionalist camps in
the west today.
One rebel officer was quoted as saying
that Carranza's forces hoped to get as
much territory as possible before the
meeting of the mediators. That report
was variously interpreted.
