PURSUE GARRANZA k 3600 Federal Troops tured; President is Fugl- tive in Mountains. — Vera Cruz.—Mexican revolutionary | forces commanded by General Pedro Senchez and Higinio Aguilar, are pur- suing President Carranza and the | troops which fled with him from the | battlefield near San Marco, on Friday. Government troops numbering 3500 were captured by the revolutionists, fellowing the escape of Carranza. Mexico City.—Venustiano Carranza, | @efeated in battle Friday in the vicin- | ity of Rinconada, Vera Cruz, is fleeing | into the mountains of Vera Cruz by way of Perote. | Revolutionary forces captured 2000 Carranza soldiers, 24 railroad trains, four pieces of artillery, about 300 ma- ehine guns, numerous automobiles, one eirplane and large quantities of am- munition and gold and silver bars. In his official report of the battle, | General Guadalupe Sanchez, command: | er of revolutionary forces, which for a week have been opposing General | Carranza’s efforts to fight his way to the Gulf coast, said the fighting began at 10 o’clock Friday morning. After three hours’ heavy battling Carranza | and the leading members of his party fled from the trains in automobiles, es- corted by about 600 cavalry. A revo- lutionary cavalry column was sent in pursuit. HOUSE. SUSTAINS PRESIDENT'S VETO Washington.—President Wilson’s ve- to of the legislative appropriation bill, U aa containing an infringement on ex ecutive authority, was sustained in the house against the effort of the repub- Mean majority to override it. Though aided by a handful of dem- | ocrats, the republicans failed by 28 | votes to obtain the necessary two-thirds | majority to repass the bill over the | president's disapproval. The measure then went back to the appropriation committee for elimination of the sec- tlona objected to and will be returned to the house for passage in its modi- fied form. The republicans rolled up 170 votes to overcome the veto, but the demo- crats cast 127 votes to sustain the president. The vote carries with it a denial of opportunity for the senate to attempt offsetting the veto, for the redrafted measure will leave the house without the provision relating to pow- ers of the joint committee on printing, at which the veto was aimed. | HAROLD HOWELL ACQUITTED i iu POWER-PLUS DEPENDABILITY The Ball Tread Alone gives the Yuba an important advan- tage.

Lustie) This being the present super- intendent’s last opportunity to write up the school notes, he wishes to briefly state the pur- pose of them. They have not been written to inform his teachers; nor have they been written to incite them to make unreasonable demands. The su- perintendents teachers get all this information and more from the same sources from which he obtains it: journals, pamphlets, institutes, ete. His purpose has been to inform the people of Cot- tonwood of current educational thought and tendencies. Wheth- er he has been successful or not his desire has been to awaken the public to an active realiza- -|tion of the importance of schools; that universal educa- tion is essential to a nation with a representative goyernment; and the good schools are the hope of a nation.
