General Carranza viii Tender
His Resignation.
LEADERS MAY DELAY ACTION
constitutionaIist Chief Decides to Step
Down Without Awaiting the Out
come of the Peace Conference About
to Begin at Zacatecas.

Washington, Oct. 1.-Dispatches
reaching the Constitutionalist agency
here from Mexico City indicate that
General Carranza will offer his resig-
nation as first chief of the Consti-
tutionalists to the convention of lead
ers in Mexico City without awaiting
the outcome of the peace conference
about to begin at Zacatecas.
It is understood here, however, that
the convention will delay action on
the resignation and take no steps
whatever toward setting up the new
provisional government until some
word has come from the conferees.
In official and diplomatic circles it
is believed that the Zacatecas con.
ference will end the revolt of General
Villa by approving the choice of Fer
nando Iglesias Calderon as provisional
president and that this action will be
followed by Iglesias' election by the
Mexico City convention.

Immigration FALLING OFF
September Figures Show Effect o.
European War.


New York, Oct. 1.-The European
war has cut down immigration into
the United States to the lowest point
in many years. For September only
$4,000 aliens entered the port Of New
York.
This compares with 108,504 in Sep.
tember a year ago, according to fig
ures obtained at Ellis Island.
immigration has been falling of,
however, before the war began.
Ellis Island, with normal accommo.
dations for 1900 to 1000 people, is
the temporary home for 800 aliens,
about one-third of whom have been
ordered deported and are awaiting
ships that will take them to ports Of
Germany, Russia and Austria.

The Initiative and Referendum and
Recall are amendments to the consti-
tuition that should surely be voted
for in the November election. If the
communities are unfortunate enough
to send representatives to the legisla-
ture that are unworthy of their trust,
there will then be an avenue open by
which the people can register their
will. Better though to send men to the
legislature to whom this procedure
will not have to be applied.

Congressman Hammond made his
opening campaign speech for govern
or at Red Wing Monday evening. The
large auditorium could not hold all
those who had come to hear him, and
he addressed a large open air meeting
from the balcony of the auditorium.
The meeting, held in a strong repub-
liican district, was enthusiastic, and
the splendid ovation given the can
didate augers we'll for the success of
the democratic ticket in November.
Mr.. Hammond also spoke at Winona
and Rochester, but has again return
ed to Washington, to take up his duties
as congressman. AS there are press
ing matters in congress Mr.. Hammond
may not return to the state for two
weeks, and his campaign in the state
will necessarily be very short. His
address, curtailed, is given in another
column. The main points brought out
in Congressman Hammond's Address
are as follows:
Governor and other state officers
rih Guild be elected on non-partisan bal.
lots.
Even now the governor must be non
partisan.
Local option preferable in larger
cities, but people of the county as a
whole might well be given right to
vote as unit on liquor question out
side these cities.
He will sign a county option bill.
We must reduce states expeditures
and lessen the peoples burden Of ex-
cessive taxation.
The legislature should carry into
effect the recommendations of the
economy and efficiency commission.
State should clear and drain its
swamp lands and build roads SO as to
attract settlers. ~.
Urges necessity and value Of fores-
tration and forest fire prevention.
7 Commends the short ballot.
Says Mrs. Lee has indicted his own
party by saying the brewery has die
tated candidates, the officers them
selves and legislation.
Pays tribute to the high character,
broad intelligence and intense patriot
ism of President Wilson and his con.
slant and. successful warfare against
special privileges.
