he soon became prominently identified
with the foremost religious forces of the
city. He was for years the head of the
Ministerial Alliance of Southern Califor-
mia.
He passed away after lingering i'll
mess after being relieved from the strain
of his pastoral duties while visiting
among many former members of his
flock in this city.
He is survived by his widow, one
daughter, Irene, and three sons, Rev.
Graham Hunter, pastor of the First
presbyterian Church of Pittsburgh, Pa;
REV. Stanley Hunter, pastor of one of
the most prominent churches in New
UYrk City, and Allan Hunter, who for
years has been engaged in Y. NJ. c. A.

parents Saturday of his early intention
'of coming to visit them, and is now on
his way to the United States and home

PLOT TO S|EzE
CANTU UNEARTHED

This mornings Los Angeles Times
carries the following story regarding a
plot to seize Governor ..antu:
CALENICO, Feb. 23-A carefully
rlanned plot by revolutionists in Lower
California to seize Governor Cantu and
overthrow the Mexican administration
there has been discovered by Mexican
authorities. The burning of the Owl
building recently is declared to be only
one incident of an organized campaign
Of rebellion against the Mexicali govern.
ment.
The revolutionary movement is de
clared to be actively going on. Money,
arms and ammunition are known to
have been secured by the revolutionists
and the identity of men at the head of
the revolution is known to Mexican Of
licials.
The theory that the recent destructive
fire in McXcali was of incendiary origin
and that revolutionists were the incen-
diaries is now generally accepted Other
destructive acts and raids are included
in the preliminary campaign. Forces of
insurrectionists are being secretly arm
ed in preparation for the big coup

overthrow of the administration.

CARRY FIGHT
ON KETTNER
BILL FLOOR
Of HOUSE
Net Result of Meeting Sat
urday Is to Rush Fight
and Refuse Ito Accept
Compromise; Mass Meet
ing Saturday on Problem.

The fight for ,the passage of the kett-
ner bill will in all probability be car
ried to the floor of the house, if it
is possible to get the bill out of the
arid lands committee.
This was the net result of the
meeting Saturday at the Irrigation
District offices when r. d. McPher-
rim made his report.
Another mass meeting will be held
Saturday and the final decision will
be made at this time. 1t is the gen
oral belief in the valley that if it is
possible to get the bill on the floor
OF the house with the American Leg
ion back of it the bill stands an eX-
cellent chance Of passage.
1t is probable that another COM
mittee, composed mostly of legion
, men, will be sent to see what favor
able action can be secured.
After the meeting Saturday the
'ollowing telegram was sent,

tives of the legion and other organi-
