VILLAS SALUTE!

Ell PAso, Tex, Aug. 2.-"The
American Government can go to
hell % declared General Francisco
Villa, addressing a gathering of
foreign merchants at Chihuahua
City, last Saturday.
Shortly afterward he confscated
number of their stores. Forty-two
Mexican merchants were jailed af-
ter the conference held Saturday
for the purpose of raising a forced
loan. Six were executed.
According to the reports brought
here by merchants, Villa stamped
up and down the room where foreign
and Mexican business men were as
sembled and shook his fist in the
faces of the thirty or forty present.
Some of the foreigners were es-
corted to the meeting under guard.
81 am going to take your bust
ness for the benefit of the state"
he declared. 'tYour employees will
remain here and conduct the bust
ness under the direction of my

to take you foreigners to the bor-

Don't Rock the Boat

AS long as men continue to buy gold
tricks of ingratiating strangers, to
wager their savings on fake horse races
in imitation pool-rooms, to advance
money for the recovery of the hidden
treasures of prisoners in Spanish jails,
to rock rowboats, to hunt for leaks in
the gas system with lighted candles
and to swallow poison taken by mis-
take from the medicine closet in the
dark, they may be expected to point
supposedly empty reVolvers at other
people with fatal results. The New

boy while showing how an automatic
pistol works didn't know it was load

community remote from civilization

dents chronicled in the press, however,
should by now have enforced the lessor

nal folly to point a revolver, loaded OF
unloaded at a human being, excep
when such an act is justifable as ;

WHITEWASHING A CRIME

TUST as we said editorially last week
} they are trying to whitewash the
Eastland horror?
Secretary of Commerce Redfeld has
so outraged all decency in his attempts
to shield his guilty inspectors that the
indignant press and people of Chicago
are demanding that he be kicked out of
the presidents cabinetl
They are bringing the responsibility
for that awful slaughter right down to
to the Secretary himself. An official
of Labor organization some weeks
ago, warned Secretary Redfeld that
the Eastland was an unsafe boat and
predicted that some terrible tragedy
would follow-a here it is!
How did Secretary Redfeld heed this
warning begin an inspection to see if
the boat really was safe? Oh mol The
