DEFENDERS LEAVE CITY QuitMexicanGapital as Villa Nears, LATTER ENCOUNTERS LITTLE OPPOSITION Continues Triumphant March on Seat of Government, Washington, Nov. 21.—American Consul Silliman, in a dispatch from Mexico City, said General Obregon’s troops were entraining for Orizaba and moving the offices of the govern- ment with him. In a later report to the state de- partment he said the Carranza forces had evacuated Mexico City. He did not indicate in which direction the troops went, but said the city was in a state of great unrest. He did not indicate whether the Obregon troops were evacuating the city to leave it undefended before the troops approaching from the north, or whether his forces were to be re- placed with other Carranza troops under General Gonzales, one of Car- ranza’s chief supporters. Previous reports have left it to be understood that a sufficient garrison would remain in the capital to main- tain order. Officials have given no indication of a change in their plans to terminate American rule in Vera Cruz next Monday. Arrangements had been made to bring Mexican priests and nuns to the United States on a government ship and plans completed to effect the evacuation within forty-eight hours after the word was given. Villa’s Path Is Easy. Pressing southward at the head of an army eager for fight after months of recuperation, General Villa will encounter little difficulty in reaching Mexico City, according to opinion of American agents expressed in dis- patches received by administration officials. Other reports told of the continuation of Villa's triumphant march to Queretaro. The situation that might result from Villa’s possible investment of the capital was not overlooked here. Many foreigners still remain in Mex- fco City who would be endangered if a battle were pressed in the streets. Obregon. declined to discuss the of- fer of the Brazillan minister, Senor Cardoso de Oliveria, to mediate be- tween the contending forces if he ap- peared as the representative of the United States, but added he might consider it if the minister came in his capacity ad Brazilian envoy. The military chieftain was said to have based his stand on “the unjust action of Washington occupying Vera Cruz, affronting the honor of the Mexican nation.” FOR LARGER ARMY AND NAVY Former President Taft Says Increase Does Not Mean War. Chicago, Nov. 21.—Former Presi- dent Taft departed from Chicago, leaving behind a string of anecdotes, praise for the Wilson administration and a plea for a larger army and navy. Speaking before the Chicago Con- gregational club Mr. Taft said: “We ought to have a navy large enough to protect our coast and make it dangerous for any nation to land an armed force. We onght to double or treble the attendance at West Point. We are not going to war just because we make un increase in out military equipment of from 25 to 50 per cent.” A Hint to Young Mothers. “When my children show the slightest symptoms of being croupy I give them Chamberlain’s Cough Remedy, and when I have a cough or cold on the lungs I take it for a few days and am soon rid of the cold,” writes Mrs. Clay Fry, Ferguson Sta., Mo. The first symptom of croup is hoarseness, give Chamberlain’s Cough Remedy as soon as the child becomes hoarse and it will prevent the attack. This remedy contains no narcotic.

FROST INVADES FAR INTO SOUTH Coldest November Weather in Forty Years. STORM IN NEW ENGLAND Heavy Snow = Accompanies IJlnm'l.)'j ance Originating Off the Carolina Coast—Freezing Temperatures Gen- eral as Far South as Florida. ‘Washington, Nov. 21.—The cold wave, with some snow, which has swept rapidly down from the North- west and spread over the South At- lantic states from Virginia to Florida, has forced temperatures to the low- est record in November in forty years.

Snow is predicted to continue in New England and along the Great Lakes. Cold wave warnings have been is- sued for Mississippi, Alabama, Geor- gia, the Carolinas, Virginia and Cen- tral Florida.

CANADIAN QUARANTINE OFF Bar Against Cattle From Dominion Lifted by United States. ‘Washington, Nov. 21.—The quaran- tine against cattle shipments from Canada to the United States, imposed because of the foot and mouth dis- ease, has been lifted by the depart- ment of agriculture.

BANK BANDITS SET $5,000 Chalmers (Ind.) Institution After Wires Are Cut. Hammond, Ind., Nov. 21.—After cut- ting telephone and telegraph wires five men blew open the safe of the State bank of Chalmers, Ind., and escaped with $5,000.

Looted INDIANS NAME INSPECTORS. Council Executive Committee Will In- vestigate Mille Lacs Land Case. As had been expected, the members of the executive committee of the Minnesota Chippewa Conference, at their meeting held here Friday after- noon, voted to appoint two land in- spectors to act in conjunction with Supt. O’Neil in his investigation con- cerning the readjustment of the con- troversy between the Indians and the government in connection with the removal of timber from the Mille Lacs reservation. The timber was cut forty years ago, but no settlement ever made. The court of claims rendered a decision giving the In- dians a large amount. Then a re- adjustment crder came and the amount due was found to be consid- erably lower. This the Indians ob- jected to and are now fighting for what they claim is due them, ap- proximately $850,000. The inspec- tors appointed are Frank Cajune, sec- retary of the council, and T. H. Leith, of White Earth. There will be a meeting of the legislative committee of the. Conference here soon. The next council will be held in Bemidji next summer.

J. Bricker, General Im- migration Agent, who personally conduct* od the exhibit, and who was painstaking in his efforts to acquaint the public with is company’s exhibit, established a prece- dent that others might follow with credit to themselves and those whom they rep- resent. Mr. Bricker is a statistician and-his- torian of great ability, and his interest- ing description, giving detailed: informa- tion about the Northwest, its past, pres- ent and future, together with expert opinion on the soil, climate, products and other data, which he is ever willing to discuss, go far toward making the North- ern Pacific’s exhibit the great success which it is. From the pine clad shores of Lake Su- perior to the delightful Puget Sound ter- ritory_the Northern Pacific spreads its line of steel. The expanse takes in the cities of Duluth, St. Paul, Minneapolis, illings and ever west until the Pacific slope is reached with its fine, large mod- ern cities in Oregon and Washington. This territory comprises an area far larger than the average reader imagines, Minne- sota, North Dakota, Montana, Idaho, Ore- gon and Washington being included in this great scope. From this great stretch of land the Northern Pacific Immigration Bureau has gathered an_exhibit of grains, grasses, vegetables, fruits, sea foods and other things that have been brought here to delight the eye and establish in the minds of the people of Iowa that the great em- pire traversed by the Northern Pacific is worthy and deserving of attention and to be measured and judged by its own show- ing. How would you like to place your or- der for a three-pound onion or a peck of potatoes, each tuber weighing 414 pounds? You can see them at the exhibit. Then there is buckwheat six feet long, wheat seven feet and a large case given over to d)firx;:lesoh products that are truly won- e sSpecimens of grains and grasses. - The Yakima Valley from sage brush to Congress beautiful homes is shown in a set of pic- tures. A hand-pointed map showing seven thousand miles.ef the read’s te; tory is an interesting item of the exhibit. There are over 100 jars showing fruits, vegetables, berries, sea focds and a vari- ety of things that soil, bushes and trees produce when proper attention is accord- ed. One large jar shows 14 distinct varie- ties of vegetables. Twenty pears, the smallest eight inches in ecircumference, are shown as the product of one little Timb. A splendid quality of corn from the Yellowstone Valley in Montana, ma- tured three weeks earlier than Iowa corn, is a feature of the exhibit. This early matarity is due to thefact that the days are much longer there than here during the growing season, and there are more perfect consecutive growing days. 1t is impossible to franseribe the beau-. f | ties of the exhibit on paper. One shonld | see it to appreciate it properly &nd judge of the merits of the great Northwest as a place for a home. The exhibit will be open today and Sunday. No doubt throngs will continue to look, listen and linger at this wonderland of g things during the remaining da; i Ice skateé we mean, as skating on Lakes Bemidji _and Irving is exceptionally good.
