Yesterday was great day in the re-

Two good services were held. Rev.
N. r. Pafford is preaching with great
earnestness and power, and the pas

meeting. Familiar hymns are being
used, and the hearty congregational
singing is uplifting and inspiring. The
meeting is being run on old time Meth.

Battle Is Imminent.

Ell PASO, Texas, March 24.-The
Mexican situation was more confused
and uncertain today than at any time
since the pursuit of Francisco Villa
began Practically the only news re-
ceived on the border fir m the inte-
rior was from Mexican sources and
this was of such a directly contradic-
tory nature thatit was impossible to
separate the true from the false.
Early today Andres Garcia, the Car
rama consul here, displayed tele-
grams which he said lie had received
from Gen. Bertani at Casas Grandes,
anngmeing that Villa was surrounded
at IGl Oso, ranch five miles south of
Namiquipa by the joint American and
CarranZa troops and that a decisive
battle was imminent, though it has
not been confirmed at the military
headquarters.
Gen. Bell, commanding the United
States troops here, received this re-
port in silence. His only comment
was that he would wait until he heard
directly from Gen. Pershing, who is
leading the punitive expedition, be-
fore making any statement on the
situation. There was frank skepti-
cism among other United States army
officers, although it was admitted that
advanced detachments of the Ameri.
can troops might have reached Nami
quipa by this time.

REPORT THAT BANDIT HAS
BEEN SURROUNDED is NOT
CONFIRMED.
HIS DEATH NOW EXPECTED
Americans Hope to Either Kill
or Capture Him Within a
Short Time-RevoIt of Gen.
Herrera Is Denied.

SAN ANTONIO, Tex, March "a
Reports from Mexican sources that
Villa had been defeated by American
and Mexican troops at El Oso, near
Namiquipa, were accepted by General
Funston today as probably true, al
though no confirmation by General
Pershing had been received. I'M
provement in the working of the
wireless made it appear likely that
General Pershing would break his
fifth day OF silence regarding OPP
0ra1ions south Of Casas Grandes by
rendering an account of the engage
ment at ri Oso.
Until now the operations against
Villa have been nothing more than
campaign Of location. Three cavalry
detachments have been working
southward along widely separated
trails, but the opportunity for direct
chase now is offered. it was indicated
by staff officers who have followed
the details of the pursuit.
II was not believed here that the
Americans would allow Villa TO get
out OF their sight again and that his
capture or death appeared more
likely than at any other time. Gen
eral Pershing, 1t was developed,
would concentrate as many of his
men as possible in a pursuing force
relieving those who have been riding
the country south Of Casas Grandes
Nothing new was learned here of
the reported uprising of General
Luis Herrera.

that call for concerted action of mine
operators. While the American Min
ing Congress. with its large and d.
versified membership. is well equip
ped TO look after nationwide mining
interests. there is a feeling among
many of the western mining men
that a distinctively western as
ISOLATION might be better able to
concentrate its activities and infiu-
ence in a way to obtain greater and
speedier results for the mineralized
west.
Among the matters that require
attention at this time, and which
particularly affect the west, are the
following: Tenderfoot legislation in
congress intended to benefit the min
ing industry but really hurting it:
the need of duty on tungsten and
manganiferous ores: a threatened
internal revenue tax on the copper
taxing producing mines; requisite
investigations and experiments I'M
der government supervision in the
treatment of low-grade metalliferous
ores; and number of other matters
of enough importance to require in
telligent handling by men who are
thoroughly familiar with the needs
of mining.
Alive to the existing situation. the
Colorado Metal Mining association
has appointed a committee to confer
with the mining organizations of
each western state with a view of
counseling with them and securing
their united cooperation. These
conferences may result in the form
alton of a new western association or
they may not. In any event, they
are bound to draw western mining
men closer together and permit of
harmonious and influential action to
secure legislation, both state and
federal, that will aid and expand
metal mining in the west.
Tenderfoot legislation affecting
the mining industry should be head
ed off and effectually discouraged. II
is just as unreasonable to expect
wise legislation for mining from men
who know practically nothing abou,
metal production as it would be tC

PULLING DOWN THE PARTY

Howe and NOrcroSS are quoted as
saying that they will not yield until
after the Republican convention
dominates q party candidate for
United Sta.es senator. Mr.. Howe s.
pecially in lnlge5 in a sarcastic refer
ence to Tie fact mat the chief Re-
publican organ of Nevada is owned
by Sam Plat and therefore the vot-
ers are not in position to acquire
first hand information of what is go
ing on in the state outside their i'm
mediate vicinity. The same compli-
ment could be paid Mr.. Howe him
self, whose organ, the Goldfeld Trib-
une, has displayed more than pass
ing interest in the return of Mr.
Howe. No one has said that Mr..
Howe controls the editorial columns
of the Tribune. but. at the same time
accuse Mr.. Plat of using his news
paper for the sole purpose of deceiv-
ing the voters of Nevada and delud-
ing them into the belief that they
must elect him to the senate.
Il desire all my friends to know
that | am still in the race to win,"
remarked Mr. Howe recently to re-
porter in Reno, and thus gave the
public the first information that he
was taking the contest seriously.
Mr.. Howe is acting like a small
boy in passing through a country
lane without any big brother to
stand by him in event of encounter
ing a spooky traveller and is whist
ling to keep his courage up. Mr.
Howe has been in the newspaper
game long enough to know that the
the policy of deception to such an
extent as to blind his readers to the
facts. If Churchill; county did not
express a preference for Sam Plat
and the Reno Gazette said it did the
mere assertion of the paper would
not alter the figures or lead other
newspapers to accept the statement
without trying to establish the We
racity of the author Sufficient time
has elapsed for every county in Ne
vada to know where its people stand
on the question of senatorial prefer
ence and there Is not the slightest
protest against acceptance of the fig
ures first printed by the Bonanza
and other newspapers seeking reli-
able information.
Mr.. Howe goes out hunting for
snipe with 100 centimeter cannon
when he cites the case of his home
town, the county seat of Esmeralda
county, as one place where Sam Plat
did not secure solitary delegate
SO far as the Bonanza knows Mr.
Plat did not claim to have single
vote from that county, which he gen.
erously accords to Mr.. Howe as un-
disputed territory. The fenced in
preserves of Mr.. Howe were not in
vaded and that gentleman is entitled
to all the consolation he can get
from the circumstance.-Ton
