Mexican Revolt Bears Earmarks Of Gold Brad And Brass Origin SinitMy Clement Wants PrMliifncy Regardless Of People's Welfare. B1 Pmo, Texas.—Bring here w itli - a Mexican revolt ki progress is even better than occupying a ringside seat at a circus. One gets hot only a eloseup of the performance from in front but a lot of low-down as to what is going on backstage some of It pretty low. writes M. E. Tracy In the New York Telegram. Locally, the situation is one of rumor and guesswork. with com * paratlvely unimportant names and places claiming the spotlight. ‘ Buch and such a town has been ^ptpred or gone over to the rebels, ... one learns; such and such a gen eral has revolted; such and such a garrison temalns loyal; such and such an emissary is trying to "ne • gotlate” with such and such a com mander. The governor of Chihuahua calls • tip long distance telephone to :.uy that he has decided to join the re bellion; the commandant at Jaurer calls up to say that he will stick by Portes Oil; some one else calls up to say that revolutionary agents are In town, and so it goes. Not A Popular Vprlslng. As the atmosphere clears one Is able to get something ot a line rn this latest and most unexpected up heaval. In the first place, It Is not a pop ular uprising in any sense of the NOTICE.

WEAK AND THIN Virfiaia Lady Wa$ Just Drag* fiat Around. Health Im proved Steadily After She Took Cardui. .. Bristol, Va.—'1 was just about down, in bed and so weak I was past gome.” wvltee Mrs. Jennie Goodman, of 718 Portsmouth Avenue, this city. Mra. Goodman says her family was very uneasy about her condition, as she seemed so weak and thin. 1 ached all over.’* she explains, "and my bask and sides hurt most of the ‘1 dragged around, and did nob •ee a day of good health. “I went to call on one of my neighbors, aad she remarked about my looking so bad. She told me to get a bottle of Cardui and take it. Meat Saturday night, my husband brought It home to me. "••fore X had taken Cardui a week. I waa feeling much better. X continued taking it for awhile, as my health kept on Improving. "X gained In weight, and soon was reeling like a new person. Since then X have taken Cardui several ttm*% and lt haa always done me good. T can recommend It to others.” Cardui has been In use so long thatite audt has been proved by tbs weperience of several genera A pdfely vegetable, medicinal tonic. Pot sale by all druggists, nc-20* word, but a military revolt. Civil ians have had no hand In It. It was obviously conceived within the army, and Just us obviously has for it,s aim the establishment of an ad ministration at Mexico City which i the army can control. ! The secrecy with which it was i planned, the precision with which lit has moved and, above all else, Itlir peculiar kind of strategy it is pursuing, identify this revolt as born of gold braid and brass but tons Thus far no one has called for rebellion except, officers of the regular anny, and few have rallied to the call except regularly enlist ed troops. It is quite commonly believed that the revolutionary leaders would restore the church and throttle or ganized labor If victorious, but they would do this to gain popular favor rather than us ft well considered policy. What Is Back Of Commotion. Whatever else may be thought ol It, General Jesus M. Aguirre's statement, as given to the United Press, leaves little doubt as to what is really bark of the commotion. "The reason for It," he says, "are the open and Insulting methods by which Plutarco Ellas Calles and Emilio Portes Oil are trying to im pose Pascunl Ortiz Kubio on the people as president." , In this connection It will be re membered that Portes Gil Is serving as ad interim president in place of Oeneral Alvaro Obregon, who was assassinated after being elected, and that he was chosen to act as such by the Mexican congress. Military ituie is ijdjcchvc. It also will be remembered that a convention of the revolutionary , party was recently held for the purpose of nominating a presiden tial candidate. that Kublo and | Aaron Saenz were the chief con tenders, and that Saenz bolted be cause, as he claimed, delegates favoring his opponent had been il legally enrolled. Last November, and while Calles was still president, so the story goes, seven generals called on him with the demand that he have Perez Trevino, also a general, nam ed as his successor. Of those seven generals at least five are taking prominent part in the rebellion, while one, Essobar. is its accepted chief. Rubio, whom Aguirre says the rebellion is designed to prevent from becoming president, Is an engineer, a former ambassador to Germany and Brazil and a recog nized leader of the Liberal party, but not a military man. Putting two and two together, the conclusion seems inescapable that this is not only a military re volt but one which has military rule ior Its Immediate objective. U. S. Opposed Army Rule. One naturally recalls the unhap py fate of Vlctoviano Hucrto, whom the late President Wilson drove lrom power on the ground that he represented military rule, and that the United States would not stand for military rule in Mexico. Was Wilson right? For one, I have never thought so. I have never considered it this government's business, or duty, to boss Mexican nollttcs. But the present situation in-1 volves more than that After Wil son and Huerta came Coolldge and Calles, with the development of a policy Intended to assist the regu larly constituted government, of Mexico and discourage revolution rrinclples Deserve Consideration. Now as between a military fac tion which goes forth to dominate politics by force of arms and a provisional president elected by congress according to provisions of the constitution, which comes near er the type of government we favor? Putting that aside, which promises more for the liberal pro gressive movement in Mexico? The fact that, this revolt has as sumed formidable proportions should have little tor do with our attitude Principles deserve con sideration as well as strength Political Gratitude. Hoover Brand. (Philadelphia Record ) The south gave up its solidarity, and plumped for Hoover. The south figured Its desertion of the old standards honored by Us people would be appreciated and reward ed Cabinet appointments were made and published. The south was con spicuous by its absence from the list. Texas thought interior would go to Cato Bells. It. went a long way past him Now the south is honored by hav ing Mr. Jahncke. of New' Orleans, named to the navy department, and Mr. Hurley. of Oklahoma, (near-south) to the war depart ment— As assistants to secretaries from the Middle West and Massachus etts, Good and Adams. Has *he south bartered it* birth right for a mess of pottage that is not to be delivered? The marked disproportion between the voting' and the patronage must be the subject of many a bitter talk aw ay, down south in Dixie. Prosperity or poverty? Ask the southern polls.
