Governor Lowden, as was expected,
carried the presidential preference
primary in Illinois, although his plu-
rality of more than $4,000 over Leon
ard Wood was somewhat startling.
Lowden stock received a boom and so
did that of Hiram Johnson whose adj
mirers in the city of Chicago to the
number of over 10000 and upwards of
10000 down the state, wrote or pasted
his name on the ballot. Few of the
preferential primaries bind delegates
to instructions for the national con-
ventions, although they do express to
considerable extent the wishes of
voters. The fight is still an open one
with General Pershing edging his hat
tentatively into the Republican ring.
He has stated that he is not a candi-
date for the presidency, but, that no
man should refuse the high office If
called to it by the people. No accu-
rate forecasting of the real convention
strength of any candidate is yet pos
sible.

Ten years Of fighting seem not to
have diminished the Mexican gluttOny
for strife. With rebellions on every
hand and the Carranza regime hold
ing power only because 1t seemed to
be the most strongly organized body,
while no two of the others could com.
bine effectively against it.. a new ele-
ment now enters the situation in the
form of secession. Sonora, the north
western border state with an area of
approximately 77,0OO square miles and
rich in gold, silver, lead, copper and
other resources, but having less
than 100000 people, has announced it's
withdrawal from the so-called repub-
lie. By proclamation the republic OF
Sonora is established, said proclama-
ton being issued by Gen. p. Elias
Gales, commander in chief of the
military forces. The federals are re-
ported organizing for suppression of
the rebels. Other Mexican states may
join the movement but whether or not
they do, is not likely to change af-
fairs much Or either increase or dimin-
ish disturbed conditions in the coun-
try. A new alignment of factions may
occur, but the whole incident takes on
the character of diverting high light
in strenuous presidential campaign
being waged in the country.

Germany's coalition government is
still on trial with a shifting of ele-
ments and sentiments due to the re-
cent troubles. Labor is dissatisfied
over the treatment of workmen in the
Ruhr difficulties. Moderate socialists,
irked by the hard economic conditions,
are reported joining the independent
socialists and communists. Both re-
dictionaries and extremists are dissat-
isfed that they have no representation
in the government and are according
ly making all the trouble they can. All
factions condemn the government on
account of the French occupation of
Frankfort and other German cities.
The hardest problem of the govern
ment is the attitude of labor which
is endeavoring to rule the cabinet.
The principal element of strength in
the coalition is in the fact that it is
so beset on all sides that it must re-
main united to prevent fall and
chaos again. France and Great Brit
ain have smoothed out their disagree
ment over the French occupation.
France will withdraw her forces from
Germany as soon as the Germans
withdraw from the Ruhr, and prom
ises there will be no further independ-
ent action on her part.

Internal problems in China having
an important bearing on the future of
that country, are in process of har-
sortium of the powers. The scheme
provides for control, through the
banking groups of the different al
lies, of loans for railroads and the de-
velopment of public utilities in China.
Allied propaganda has been further
ing the project for more than year,
but until recently the jealousy exist
ing among the Shanghai Chinese and
those Of South China against the
Picking government, has stood in the
way of an agreement. The anti
Picking leaders appear to be satisfied
so long as America, England and
France direct operations under the
loans and Picking officials have moth
ing to do with the actual expenditures.
The remaining problem is to induce
Japan to join the consortium on equal
terms with the other three nations,
thus easing the Japanese yoke on
China. With the other powers pre-
senting such strong front, it is be-
lieved Japan will join.
