WILSON W

By DAVID LAWRENCE.

way by pointing to the error of the
Democratic administration. They do
not need to talk much about foreign
policies, but simply start comparing
the relative merits of the Democrats
who have held executive positions
and the kind of men 'the. Republican
party can assemble.
There has been so mucn aisoontem
a good deal of it was inevitable as
a result or tne cnaos oi war we
where the league of nations has really
made Inroads as an Issue the friends
of the league are being persuaded that
senator Harding will do all ngnr on
that issue any way and that they had
better not take any chances on the
Democratic administration.
Wilson Load a Ileavr One
Of course the Democrats haven't
got to work yet. Their campaign is
lagging and they will cave interest
ing things to say concerning the rec
ord the Republicans have made ' in
congress in the last two years, but he
would be a prejudiced observer who
Old not admit that the Wilson load,
entirely apart from the league issue,
is a heavy one and that governor
Cox's opportunity lies is making it
dear that he means to draw away
from the incompetency of the past
and give the country a new deal.
The more he shows his indepen
dence of White House rule, the more
people In the party, at least, like it.
They are not happy over his visit to
Mr. Wilson a few weeks ago. They
would have preferred to see him con
firm the impression which went ont
of San Francisco of a triumph over
"Wilson democracy. Probably gover
nor Cox knows that, but on the other
hand he is a shrewd enough politi
cian to keep In mind that the west
elected Wilson in 1916 and that the
league Is a vital question west of the
Mississippi river. Some observers
think he mleht lust as well fore-et
about the east anyway, with the ex
ception of Ohio, and endeavor to win
the election by a combination of The
west and solid south-
Cox Is Resourceful.
But in the west as well as in Ohio.
the resentment against the Wilson
administration on domestic affairs
runs high and at this stage of the
game overshadows everything else.
Governor Cox is a resourceful candi
date and he knows from contact with
bis home folks In Ohio that aside
from the elements which will never
e reconciled to any league of na
tions, he can satisfy the demand of
uc people ior reservations that safe
guard American freedom of action,
but that at this point the agreement
with the Wilson administration might
happily cease without offending any
considerable part of the electorate.
Thafs the way it looks with the
campaign only a month- nii rw.
White House may nnr like It. hut
governor Cox probably-is aware of the
unpleasant truth. And It would not
be a bit surprising to see him act on
those currents of opinion before this
campaign is concluded. If he doesn't

(Contlnoed from page 1) -j
ment or comment. The governor fol
lowed out his usual routine yesterday.
If vigorous language attributed to
president de la Huerta, the reported
gathering of central Mexican troops
on nearby coasts, and slow accessions
of recruits to the Cantu forces nad
served to worry him. It was not ap
parent. Life here proeeeded about as usual,
with slightly more activity noted in
official circles. Military forces were
enraged in drilling and equipping re
cruits to the Cantu army. Hefusal of
the United States to permit passage
across the border of a newly pur
chased bombing plane and receipt of
formal word that no arms or muni
tions might be passed Into Lower
California, and that sale of explosives
in the Imperial valley of California
would be stopped, impeded these
preparations slightly
Some excitement was caused by the
annoneement of H. S. &endejas. rep
resenting the provisional federal gov
ernment, that taxes paid by .stamps
issued or tne cantu collector would
not be recognized.
Walter F. Boyle, American consul,

Overland With

Villa, who declined to accompany
Gen. Eugenia Martinez by train from
Monclora to Torreon, following; his
agreement to lay down arms, is now
marchlnir with hl3 mounted force
overland between the two dtles. ac-i
cording to Information received by
Luis Montes de Oca, Mexican consul
eeneral. late Tnesdav.
The distance between Monclova
and Torreon Is 192 miles, and as Villa
u not under forced march, tne trip
will take at least 10 days, Mr. Montes
de Oca said.
Villa, It was stated by a Vtlllsta
agent here. Is encamped at a point
between the two cities, waiting for
the-remainder of his force to Join
him before continuing to Torreon. It
was also said that Villa would In all
probability "have a thousand men in
his command when he enters Torreon.
It was suggested from another
source, familiar with the Villa situa
tion, that the failure of the former
bandit to appear in Torreon was In
all probability due to the fact that
he was scouting for recruits in order
that all loyal or friendly to him
might benefit by the year's salary,
which the government has agreed to
pay all Villa's men upon their arrival
at Torreon. It it is true that he will
(take a thousand men Into Torreon,
this would seem to be a correct solu
tion of his failure to arrive at Tor-
rreon, as Villa was known to have less
tr an te men ax tne tune -or nis agree-.
ment with the de facto government.

secede from the central government
and precipitate the recent revolution
Gov. Flavio A. Borquez has issued a
statement as follows:
nt Is true that the sonora revolu
tion was the result of president Car
ranza's attempt to send troops into
this state to dlsnlace a constitutional
Lgorernor. and. If possible, control by
armea xorce a presiaenaai election.
"However Sonora is a state elect
ing its own chief executive under con
stitutional guaranties, while Lower
California is & territory whose gov
ernor can be aDnolnted or removed
at the pleasure of the president.
"When president Carranza attempt
ed to remove Gov. Adolfo de la
Huerta and replace him with a mili

tempting an unconstitutional act of
usurpation against which the peo
ple arose In just rebellion.
"On the other hand. Gov. Bstaban
Cantu'a refusal to recognize the pres
