OREGON VILLAS
PRISONER, REPORT
Americans from Chihua-
hua Say Generals Quar-
relied Over Revolt.
IN Telegaph 70 Dc TrIbunc. J

FL PaSO, Tex, Sept. 20.-Americans
arriving to-day from Chihuahua City
bring the report that General Villa
has arrested General Alvara Obregon
and Obregon's entire staff and is
holding them in prison at Chihuahua.
The arrest is denied by Villas repre-
sentatives here, but they admit that
Villa has threatened Oregon with ar
rest.
Villa and Obregon-the latter COM
mander-in- chief of Carranza's forces
were comforting over the Sonora situa-
ton in Chihuahua when a quarrel
arose. Obregon, it is said, objected to
a plan outlined by Villa for the paci-
iication of Sonora, which has been in
revolt for months. and Villa became
enraged and caused the arrest of the
Carranza representative and Of his en-
tire staff.
The arrival in Juarez to-day of three
thousand Villa soldiers, who arc said
to be on the way to Sonora. has
strengthened the belief on the border
that Villa has decided to control the
Sonora situation without the aid of
Carranza.

said to have no legal right to remove
any of the Mexican passengers on the

Welcome to Edgefeld County.

The Advertiser extends a cordial
welcome to DR.. w. S. Stokes who has
pur chased an interest in The News
M onitcr and is now the editor and man.
ager of the paper. DR.. Stokes is not
ew member of the Fourth Estate.
Before coming to Johnston he was edi-
tor and manager of the News and
Herald of Winnsboro, making of it a
strong, newsy paper. The relations
between the paper in our sister town
of Johr.ston and those of the county
seat have always been of the most
p pleasant nature and W. trust and be-
lieve that the same pleasant relations
Wi II continue, undisturbed by the COM
ing of DR.. Stokes. We wish The News
M onitor full measure of prosperity
under the new management. Already
we note with pleasure changes and i'm
provements. Our young friend, Junius
B alley, is still one of the makers of
he paper. He is a young man of ma
tive ability who possesses sterling quail
tiles and he will likewise contribute to
the success of The News-Monitor.

Decision Eagerly Awaited.

The dispensary board of Lexington
county has already opened FIVE dispen-
sa ries and has planned to open the
sixth in Batesburg. A building has
b cen rented and stock of whiskey has
been shipped to Batesburg but the
board is being temporarily restrained
from opening by the court. The mat
ter will be argued before Judge j. w.
OeVore in Edgefeld Monday, April 27
The dispensary people have all along
been the loudest advocates of local op-
tion or local self government as fun
damental Democratic principle. But
it seems that when the application of
this principle goes counter to their in
terests they,-are unwilling for the peo-
pie to exercise this right. AS we un-
de rstand it, majority of the people
of Batesburg are opposed to the es-
tablishment of a dispensary in that
town and petitioned the board not to
place dispensary on them. The board
disregarded the wishes of the majority
and perfected its plans for opening a
dispensary. Those who opposed the
establishment of a dispensary obtained
an order from the court restraining
the board until full hearing could
be had.
A final decision is being eagerly
waited.

Attend the Club Meetings.

Every Democratic club in the county
will meet next Saturday afternoon to
re-organize and elect delegates to the
county convention, and it behooves
every true Democrat to heed this call
to duty. Lay aside private business
long enough to attend to this public
duty. There are clarion calls to duty
ia time of peace as we'll as when the
war clouds are gathering. Heed the
call made for Saturday afternoon. No
enc else can perform this duty for
you. YOUR presence is needed at this
initial meeting of the campaign.

The Deestrick Skule.

In several respects new record
has been set for entertainments in
Edgefield. The Deestrick Skule
which was given in the opera house
Monday night proved to be the
most popular attraction ever given
here. This was conclusivelY shown
by the very large attendance and
by the demand for reserved seats
that could not be supplied. Chairs
were placed in every foot Of ayaila-
BILE space in the opera house and
then there were scores and scores
who could hardly find standing
loom. The amount of money re-
allied was also record breaker,
the total gross receipts being s2l8.
This passes all records of the past.
Every member of the Skule:
from Prof. Threewitts all down
through the roll of scholars, de-
serves the highest commentator
for the part that each one contribu-
ted to the success of the entertain
ment. The members of the w. &.
L. u, the organization under
whose auspices the play was given,
is very grateful to them all for the
service which they have rendered.
They are also grateful to the John
ston orchestra for the part that
these gentlemen contributed to the
success of the entertainment. Their
half dozen sections were we'll rem
dered and were thoroughly enjoyed.

NOT PAINT.

The worst mistake in painting is
not putting off. That costs about
10 per cent; You keep your money
a year and pay 10 per cent for it.
Paint would have to come down
25 per cent to make 10 per cent on
the job, for wages do not go down.
The worst mistake is cheap paint.
1t costs from so per cent to 100,
first cost, and another in wear.
What a liar cheap" is! Put off"
is bad enough; cheap" is ten times
worse.

We have heard no expressions as to
t he cotton acreage for this county for
1914, but we do not believe that it
will be as large as it was several years
ago. The increased attention that is
given to corn, together with the in
crease acreage in oats, has to an ap-
pr eciable extent reduced the cotton
