PROBABLY GETTING HIS WISH.

Sometime ago The News published letter written by Fatty" Lowe, a local boy, who is a member of Troop
 A, Seventh Cavalry, |. S. A., and at that time he was wishing that he might have chance to kill one
 thousand Mexicans. Looking over | the recent dispatches, with reference to the chase for Villa, it will be
 noted that the Seventh Cavalry and
 Tenth Cavalry, were the troops who took part in the surprise attack on Villa and his men. and in which over
 loo yillistas were killed. The Tenth 1 Cavalry is the famous negro cavalry
 Of the United States Army, and the Seventh vas just recently brought To
 the Mexican border after hard ser
 siae f1=tae Philippines. Only 4o0 men were used by Col. Doad, when he attacked Villa and his men, and
 they were the pick of both Seventh
 and Tenth. Fatty" is member of the leading troop in the 7th. and
 doubtless is now getting his wish to kill the f,000 Mexieans, atany rate

The above message was received from Congressman Tillman Wednes- day morning. Investigation fails to find a case of black lep among the cattle of this section, or at least none have been reported. This dis ease affects the cattle of this sec tion in the fall; last fall one or two cases being noted. And usually shows up in fat calves that are run ming with cows. The disease is very contagious and once started in herd spreads rapidly. Signs of the dis ease is usually first shown in the shoulders, then affecting the front legs; the blood becomes black and clotted, and cattle die within twen- ty-four hours after being affected.
 Cattlemen of this section would do we'll to notify Congressman Tillman of the number of cattle in their herd, and arrange with him for enough free vaccine to take care of each animal This is especially de- sired of men owning better grades Of cattle.
 Cattle in this country are very sel dom affected with black-lee, but in the large cattle country of the west and southwest il is very prevalent. However there is no way of telling when the disease may break out here and the spread is very rapid. If you own cattle communicate with Congressman Tillman at once and ar. range for the vaccine. The vaccine will be useless after the disease is once started, but will prevent il if cattle are vaccinated.

Democratic Nominee for Mayor and Entire Democratic Ticket Elected Tuesday by Big Majority.

As predicted by The News three weeks ago, the entire Democratic ticket was easily elected Tuesday at the general election. Quite a bit of interest was shown in the three cornered race for mayor, between l.. A. Smith, Democratic nominee. and G \. Ruppel and A. NJ. Leitzell, in dependents. Large claims were made before the election by friends Of both independent candidates, while the Democratic leader refused tQ become excited in the least regarding the outcome
 Election day was anything but quiet. friends of all three candidates worked hard for tHe respective friends, and while the outcome was a surprise to few. the result was nothing more than anticipated.
 Very little interest was shown in =Jhe marshal's race, another three-c cor ne4d affair, and Cover, Democratic nominee won in walk.
 Early in the day it was currently reported that efforts were being made to run independent candidates for aldermen in two Of the wards, but the final results proved this to be groundless, as every Democratic for alderman was easily elected.
