Alex McGregor for Sheriff

The attention of our readers IS called this week to the authorized announcement of our friend, Mir. Alex McGregor, of Cotton Plant, who is a candidate for the office of sheriff and collector of Wood ruff county, subject to the action of the Democratic primary, March 29.
 MT. McGregor, as our readers know, made the race for sheriff two years ago and it was only by the small majority of four votes that he was defeated. When the committee met at Augusta and made the count, a number ot friends urged him to protest the election but he would not hear to such for one moment and took his defeat like a gentleman, feel ing no i'll will against anyone.
 Although he is classed by some as being one of Woodruff Coun- tvs wealthiest citizens, there IS not within her borders a man more popular with the poor man, whether he be farmer, sectlon- hand, clerk, or common laborer, than Alex McCregor. His riches have been acquired honestly and by attending strictly to business he has managed to add to them all the while. He has treated the most humble with every due courtesy and we doubt if there is a man living who has ever had any business dealings with this gentleman who is not his friend.
 The subject of this sketch IS one of our county's most popular and worthy young men, enJoylng the friendship and esteem of not only his many fellow townsmen, hut the entire citizenship ot

Woodruff county. He is a suc- cessful and reliable farmer and a substantial spoke in the wheel of progress in his home town. His people are for him is this race and with the vote which they hope to see him get in other parts of the county, they feel confident of his being the next sheriff.
 As to his being competent and thoroughly qualified for the place, not even his opponents friends will question. He is young, able, attentive to busi- ness,, true and loyal to all his friends, and once you have met him you can't help but like him.
 He has never held a public office and asks the voters to honor him with the office of sheriff and, if elected, he prom ises to attend to the duties of the same faithfully, honestly and courteously, showing favor to no one, whether 1t be friend or foe. He promises to give the office his very best personal attention and states that if he does not do so, he will not ask the voters to place the office in his care for another term.
 Being a product of Woodruff county and one in which every one can feel proud, possessing as a citizen a name that is untar- nished and a record that is unde- filed, we feel no misgivings, but deem it a pleasure and an honor to recommend to the voters of Woodruff County the promising candidacy of one of her most ex- traordinary men, MT. Alex Nc Gregor, and we sincerely hope that before you cast your ballot for one to fill this important of

"PitiIcss Publicity".-Before ne
was elected, Woodrow Wilson an
nounced that his administration
would be characterized by "pitiless
publicity" Since his inauguration
even normal publicity has given
place to political expediency. The lat
est instance of this is the absolute
refusal OF the war department to re-
veal the facts regarding the attack
on San Ignacio, Tex, by Mexican
troops, presumably Carranzistas.
Army officers at the department ex-
plain that they are under peremptory
orders not to disclose the facts and,
as everyone knows. those orders come
from President Wilson himself. Tho
official report of the affair, as made
by the Carranzista general to his
headquarters, has been published in
the Mexican press. 1t declares that
the Americans, of the Ninth regiment
were routed by combined attack of
cavalry, approaching from the West,
and infantry from the South; that
there was furious fighting for two
hours, when Americans were Com
PEELED to fly" He concludes: ION
the field were abandoned great num-
bers OF dead and wounded and an i'm
mense booty, consisting of $50 rifles,
5000 cartridges, horses, saddles, mu-
nitions OF war and provisions" The
Wilson administration successfully
suppressed the facts regarding this
encounter until the Mexicans made
them public. OF course the purpose
OF Mr.. Wilson is to prevent the pub
lie from approaching the truly far
cical nature OF the conference he is
conducting at New London, and the
futtlity of looking to Carranza for
protection OF the Mexican border.

FL0TATI0N
Process is Recommended at the
American Institute of Min
ing Engineers.

GLOBE, Ariz., Sept. 21.-Possible
means of developing the flotation pro-
cess to the greater benefit of the
country's mining interests were taken
up in the sessions of the American
Institute of Mining engineers, meet
ing here today.
Conclusions reached by the dele
gates, who include representatives OF
many of the leading metal producing
companies of the country, were to the
effect that the flotation process is now
in its infancy and that with the further
discovery Of new flotative agents and
generous expenditures brilliant fu-
ture record could be obtained for this
process.
Today's discussions included the
first public presentation of report OF
experiments on several miscellaneous
wood oils which seem adaptable to use
in the flotation process. A statement
of some of the values of these oils was
presented by r. c. Palmer of Madison,
Wis; Glenn l.. Allen, Of the Shattuck
Arizona Copper Company, and o. G.
Ralston, OF the United States Bureau
of Mines.
During a part of today the mining

Company, and later visited the reduc-
ton works Of this company. During

DIR. AbbOtt's Error.-The Rev.
Doctor Lyman Abbott, writing in the
Outlook, says, You ask me what
would have done IL had been pres
ident during the last four years. 1
cannot tell you what would have
done, for the president Is not an au-
tocrat. In deciding upon his policies
he must be guided by the advice Of
his cabinet, who are his chosen coun-
sellers; and in carrying them into
effect he must be determined by the
support he can win from Congress.
DIR. Abbott makes several errors in
this statement. Woodrow Wilson is
an autocrat. as his record clearly
shows. He has never to any mater
ial extent sought the advice Of his
cabinet. On the contrary, he careful
~ chose cabinet composed, with two
exceptions, OF men obviously not Sc
lected for the value of their advice,
and one Of those exceptions was too
much of man TO remain in the cab
met. And finally, MIR. Wilson has not
only shaped his own policies, with
out the advice of anyone but, occas-
ionally, his son-in-law, but he has
utilized his disposal to dragon
Congress into passing whatever meas
ure he dictated, the single exception
being the shipping bill which Con-
gress would not stand for in the form
it was drafted by McAdoo, but which
1t did pass in emascuated form at the
dictatlon of Mr.. Wilson. Although
sworn to uphold the constitution,
Woodrow Wilson has converted the
presidency into an absolute autocracy.

in defense of the woman who makes

statement of another Texan, Col.

pecially indignant at President Will
