VILLAS BODY
 NOT YET FOUND
No Confirmation Is Had Of Report Villas Body Really Has Been
 Found; Wilson, "ShOw Me-"

Fl Paso, April 17.-Confirmation of tue Mexican reports yesterday that Villas body has been exhumed and is being brought to Chihuahua City still was lacking in Jurez today.
 Gabriel Gavira, the commander cf the Carranza garrison in Juarez, saiG this afternoon that he still feels rea- scrsbly certain that Sundays mes sages over the Mexican land lines that Villas body has been found are cor rect.
 A dispatch to Gavira at 1O:3O o'clock this morning from Susi Huirach said that the body of Villa had nc.. arrived there. and the belief is growing here that probably there was an error in she Mexico City messages last night stating that Obregon had announced the burial of Villa in San Francisco Borja. and that it is not enroute to Chihuahua City at all.
 Further details of tthe reported find ing l.: Villas body were obtained hero today by Gavira in a conversation with the telegraph operator at SanAntonio, Mexico. who said that the Villa band which was operating near Cusi Huir- ach, was attacked by commands under Ccneral Cavazos and Colonel Carran- ga. and that many of the Villistas were killed and wounded and several captured, among the latter being in- cludeG colonel.
 The telegraph operator claimed that this colonel promised to show the Car rancistas where the body of Villa was buried if his life were spared, and that he tcok the officers to San Francisco BoCja, where the bandit chiefs body was reported to have been unearthed.
 Washington official statement that the American troops will be with drawn from Mexican soil if it Is defin- itely and truthfully established that Villa is dead will hasten the Carran- cistas' effortts to prove their claim by identification of the body, it is believ- ed here.
 If Villas body is still inferred at San Francisco Bcrja as claimed, ac- cording to Mexican City advices it likely will be many days before the identification can be made unless the Mexican government accepts as final tho identification oo p,odo hy tho Cor raEza officers there.

IN THE WOODS.

The feud between the two ranches did
not cease with the death of Blass Car
dross, and that 1t did not do so was
due in large measure to the resentment
and desire Of personal revenge Of one
man. .. .. ..
That man was the cowpuncher, Bill
Grange, who had been taken on the RAJ
coon river outfit upon his dismissal
from the Loop. He had always been
an unpopular member Of the Loop OUT
fit: and though not the sort Of man Of
whom q dangerous criminal Is usually
made, he was crafty and revengeful
over petty affronts.
Buck Brannon had incurred his jeal-
GUS enmity through Kilrain's marked
favor for the younger man.
His one attempt to render himself
an object OF interest to Jess had been
nipped so ruthlessly In the bud that,
although Grange had never repeated
the audacity, he had never forgotten

Former Progressive Leader
Makes Whirlwind Cam

Caldwell. Oct 20.-That there can be
no doubt but that Canyon county is to
be counted In the Republican column,
is the opinion of Guy II. Martin of

gressive party in this state for gov
ernor and one Of the states prominent
leaders, who arrived in this city this
morning from the widely known and
densely populated community of Ros-
well, where he delivered a political adj
dress last evening to a large audience.
In, commenting upon the political
situation in this city as he has found
1t on his whirlwind campaign, Mr.. Mar
tin said: Il am gratified to see that
the situation in Canyon county shows
the fullest measure of optimism and
the outcome in the county is not at all

counted in the Republican column.
have talked with hundreds Of Progress
sives and they tell me that they are in
line for Hughes and Fairbanks. The
Republican party is now reunited and
the present trend of political develop
ment indicates a magnificent majority
for Charles Hughes. The fallacy of the
argument in favor of President Will
sons reelection, that he kept us out
of war. is fast losing It's force Instead,
all peace loving people are coming to
the conclusion that more danger lies
in a policy of threatening and meddling
and vacillation than in conservative.
neutral course. and to insure peace
they will vote for Hughes.
1T Is surprising in large measure
that many Democrats have advised me
at the different places I have deliv-
cred addresses that 1t is their purpose
to support Hughes. The free trade
policy Of the present Democratic ma
tional administration as well as it's war
policy will operate against its reten-
ton in power"
