SWEEP MEXICO
Genertl Funston Outlines Elaborate
Campaign Should War BE
Declared.

San Antonio, Texas, June 27-Prep-
arations for the placing and mainten-
ance of national guards units were
made today While the quartermaster
department was working out details
for caring for more than 5000 addi-
tiOnal men, General Funston and his
staff were engaged in revising and fix
ing the long list of troops stations
with view to starting a big, sweep
ing army across the border il neces-
sary, aud at the same time leave ade-
quate protection for the border towns
and ranches on the American side OF
the boundary line.
Reports from General Pershing's col
luns and general forces along the Dor
der reached headquarters more fire.
duently than on other days, but near
ly all had to do with the routine of
big army and carried no news of
clashes with Mexicans, either bandits
or troops of the de facto government.
Unless made necessary by some UNI
mistakable act of CarranZa's troops,
the American army will take no hos
tile steps towards Mexico until direct

flcers reports told of continued con-
centratiop of Mexican forces within
striking distance of the border.
The apparent intention of Sonora
commanders to send force of 1900
through Naco to Bisbee presumably to
raid the copper plants there, appeared
today to have been abandoned. When
the report was received last night the
twenty-second regiment of infantry
was sent from Douglas to Bisbee on a
special train. Today there came re-
ports Of a Strengthening of the Mexi-
can garrison opposite Nogales.
General Davis, reporting on the sit
uation about Naco, said that there had
been a marked concentration of Mexi-
can troops south Of there, especially
at Cananea, where there is said to be
six thousand men.
Reports to General Funston about
the raid near Hachita in which Parker
and his wife were reported killed, did
not indicate that the cavalry pursuing
the raiders had crossed the border,
nor did they show clearly whether the
raiders came from south of the line.

GET RID or HUMORS

Dry, moist, scaly letter, all forms
of eczema or salt rheum, pimples
and other eruptions come from
humors, which may be ei-iler in
hcritcd or acquired through defec-
tive digestion aud assimilation.
To treat these eruptious with dry
ing medicines is dangerous.
Hoods Sarsaparilla, the old rcli-
able medicine, helps the system to
Discharge the humors, and to i'm
prove the digestion and assimila-
ton.
From your druggist get Hoods
Sarsaparilla, which may be conf

puriGes the blood, tones the stom-

for Hoods Sarsaparila, because

The Banner does not understand II.
Nelson Jackson's meaning when he OBJ
iects to the issuing of stickers for
Hughes without the sanction of the
Progressive party" There must be
some misprint in DR.. Jackson's mani
festo as published. What business is
it of the Progressive party or any 9th
er party what a group of the support
ers Of one of the candidates may do to
promote the success of the man whom
they desire to nominate? The Repub-
lican state committee Numbered in the
matter by allowing the story to be cir.
culated that the committee would fur
nish stickers for all the candidates and
then failing to do so or to deny the
story until a few days before the vote.
1t isn't the state committees duty to
promote any one candidacy or to favor
the supporters of any one candidate
and The Banner does not think the
committee intended to do so. The
circumstantial evidence is against the
state committee but we feel confident
that its mistake was blunder
and not a premeditated wrong. 1t is
important in all public matters to
avoid the appearance Of evil.

The licenses Of Hotel Vermont and
the Van Ness at Burlington have been
revoked 1t came about in curious
manner. The two hotels were leased
this spring to a man outside the state
and not eligible to hold license. Ac-
cordmgly the two liquor licenses were
taken out in the name of Max l..
Powell, the principal stakeholder. A
few days ago it was discovered that
Powell was not eligible because he is
an office holder, being a member of the
state senate. When the matter was
called to their attention the commits
sioners had to revoke the license.
They viii doubtless be reissued in a
few days but Max is said to be wor-
ried over the question whether the
state will pay back the $500 which he
paid for the two licenses. 1t isn't Gus
tCmary when licenses are revoked.

New Movie Tax In
 England Won't Have Effect On Crowds.

London, April Managers tof moving picture theatres do not believe that the new government war tax on their business will make any difference in the size of audiences. The tax is to be regulated by the size of the ad- mission fees.
 There are approximately 4,50O pie ture theatres now open in the United Kingdom, or a thousand less,. perhaps, than there were before the war. These include theatres of all sizes from those possessing a seating accommodation of 200 to those accommodating 42,00O or more. Reckoning the average daily attendance at each house at 800 and the average admission price <as six pence (12 cents) per head, the tax would bring in total daily revenue of 9O,OO0 pounds.
 Excluding Sunday shows. which are not general, the total for a week would amount to 54,oOO pounds, which for a whole year would be increased to about 28,0OO,O0 pounds.

The rebels, Lord Lans- downe said, were driven from St. Ste phens Green with a certain mum Der of casualties Tuesday they still occupied certain buildings and houses in Sackvi1e and other sections
 Dealing with the situation today, Lord Lansdowne said the command ing officer reported there was com plete cordon of troops around the center of Dublin on the north side of the river and two more battalions were arriving this afternoon from England. This situation, he declar- ed, was undoubtedly well in hand. and he had no doubt of the ability of the government to suppress the movement by most drastic methods.
 Although the situation fin the prov fnces was not wholly satisfactory, the information received was not suf- fcient to justifya an invasion. There had been a small uprising at Ardee and Louth and rather more serious one in Swords Lusk, close to Dub lin.
 Te1egrams, he said, are now coming in more rapidly. They show that Liberty Hall was partially destroyed and occupied by the military.
 Referring to the attempted German landing in Ireland, Lord Lansd0 0wne said he did not know what Sir Roger Casem ent was led to expect in the way of assistance for his Handing but he added:

Their approval must be given before the contractor gets his first payment The work is being done in a rather superficial manner, but will be sup pl.4lnented by some carting on of ma teriaI and will probably accomplish satisfactorily what is only the first chapter of the seasons program.
