SAYS NE XlC AN
polio WRONG
Omer Bailey, Formerly Of This City,
But Nowof Mexico, Believes Presi-
dent Must Change His Attitude
AMERICANS NEED PROTECTION
War Leaders Have Greater Fear Of
England Than United States
Hundreds-of Soldiers Starving

That the policy Of the United
States in its treatment Of the condi-
tions which now exist in Mexico is
not approved by the American citi-
zens in the southern states, is the be-
lief Of Omer Bailey, who is visiting
Bemidji today. Mr.. Bailey formerly
made Bemidji his home, but now re-
sides at Deming, New Mexico, just
thirty-fiye miles from the scene of
General Villas headquarters.
Must Change Policy
Mexicans regard the United States
with no thought ofssfear, while Eng
land is believed by them to be the ma
tion which must be treated with the
greatest respect. Mr.. Bailey says
that daily American citizens are ar
rested, thrown into Jail and kept i'm
prisoned for long periods, while by
claiming to he British subjects re-
lease is immediately given.
Protection Needed.
Americans of the south do not
wish the United States to take sides,
Says Mr. Bailey, but what they do
demand and expect President Wilson
to do, is to order that American pro-
perty be protected, and that Ameri-
can life be left unharmed. With this
understanding, that should either of
these orders be violated, that the
twenty Thousand American soldiers,
now stationed along the Rio Grande,
would at once start fighting.
AS conditions now ex list it is not
safe for citizen of this country to
visit Mexico.
Soldiers Starving
Hundreds of Mexican soldiers are
starving is the information given by
Mr.. Bailey. I'm my opinion 1000
American can lick 5000 of those
poems. Why, whens3Aay are lighting
from behind a breaat-Works instead
Of taking aim they simply lift their
guns above the inclosure and fire.
They have no idea as to methods of
fighting ne said.
The Open Ballot
According to Mr.. Bailey less than
five per cent of the poor people Of
Mexico can either read or write, and
that they have been nothing more
than slaves to the richer class, the
people who are causing the trouble
now in progress. He tells that there
is absolutely no possibility of a fair
election under >the present state of
affairs, and that the elections which
are held are done so with the use of
the open ballot, wher if voter does
not cast his ballot as he is directed,
he is punished.

William E. Lee of Long Prairie

Lee made brief speech Of accep-
tance and Samuel G. Iverson and
James T. Elwell took the platform
and pledged their hearty support to

James A. Peterson, who had said
he would support the candidate
chosen providing he not be a ma
chine man, could not be found when
sought by members of the confer
ence after the result was announced.
Seen later, he said he had nothing
to say other than he had said at the
conference.
The first ballot was a clear victory
for Lee before the last county had

PRINCIPAL Cause of Cholera.

The principal cause for an outbreak
OF cholera is the presence Of cholera
bacilli In the drinking water supply
Of . city. Its descent is sudden and
widespread. Almost an entire popu-
lace can be stricken at once. The
stricken person, usually, is dead or on
the road to recovery within "a hours.
Sometimes, however, fever hangs on
for several days, in some instances
resulting in death. It is not believed
that the disease can be communicated
by contagion.
