he is man eminently fitted for the
hard work ahead of him. He has a
reputation for the kind of campaigning
that confronts him. For his work IN

les highly complimented him. His FAC
ulty for desert trailingand the kind OF
guerrilla fighting that Villa is likely
TO put up has been sharpened by ten
years service in the Department OF
Arizona. Gen. Pershing served with
honor in the Spanish American war,
and in the Santiago campaign won this
