Villa Would Eliminate
Self if Necessary to .
Gain Peace in Mexico

Announcement was made here today
on behalf of Gen. Villa by his Wash
ington agents that all the civil and
military elements of his party would
eliminate themselves if necessary for
the success of Mexican peace con-
ference.
Villas proposal was contained in a
telegram from Diaz Lombardo. his sec
rotary of state, to his agency here, as
follows:
81 do not believe that the sending of
American vessels of war to Mexican
waters can be considered a purpose
TO intervene on the part of the
United States, inasmuch as the invita-
tion to be sent by the pan-American
conferees to the military chiefs in
Mexico contains no menace whatso-
ever, according to the dispatches that
I have read relative to the subject.
Intervention Not Expected.
The cablegram sent by Preside mt
Plaza of Argentina to Carranza. in an
swer to his impairment message justi-
hes my opinion, since in categorical
terms President Plaza states that Ar
gentina is taking part in the confer
ences on the condition that the SOW
ereiknty OF Mexico be respected, md
rejecting any idea OF intervention IN
our internal affairs. above all, by means
of force.
II believe, Furthermore. that by racial
solidarity and for their own future con-
venience the Central and South American
nations not only would not take part in
any armed movement against our coun-
try, but would protest against any act of
this character. l firmly believe also in
the good will of President Wilson toward
Mexico, and that the American govern
ant will at

should be busy workshops.
Emerson was filled with delight
when he met an argument that, as he
says, set my own particular top to
spinning. To-day our difficulty is to
lind that incentive. In the golden days
or the past, men spoke, as Hiawatha,
with naked hearts together, but in
the clamorous days OF the present
when we wish people to heed our re-
marks we entrust them to the printed

conversation. To catch them in their

Aiken, April 24.-By order Of Mayor

chief Of police and the sheriff Of the
county to see that the official procla-
nation Of the mayor was strictly ad-
hered to.
At meeting of the board of con-
troll last Tuesday, two new member,
recently commissioned by Governor
Manning and a hold-over, a complete
change of dispcnsary employees was
made, only two of the old clerks being
retained. This action on the part OF
the new board is resented by men who
have lost their positions and the clos
ing of Aiken dispenSaricS resulted
from the refusal Of clerk to name a
day when he would check up.
There is doubt in the minds of the
employees as to whether the action Of
the new board is legal, although the
Governor has issued commissions to
the new employees.
The Aiken county delegation named
but one of them resigncd-Mr. Rawls
and the delegation had not up to the
time Of the meeting Of the new board
named successor to Mr.. Rawls. p.

section, has been named by the ma
