Aug T (P— Anneyncement here that Columbus, N. M, is to be sold for taxes recalls the famed raid by Pancho Villa in 1916 which nearly led to war with Mexico. The sun-baked little border vil- lage will remain a world history because of the purt it played in American history and world history affairs in the days preceding the World War. Villa Swoops Down Villa's sudden ficree raid of the sleepy littic adobe village at dawn March 9, 1916 contributed dircctly to the elevation of John J. Pershing to command of the American ex- peditionary forces in the Werld War. Moreover the modicum of preparedness for war when the country was launched into the World War was dircetly attributed to the sacking. Seldom has the nation heen stir- red as it was when Villa, the guerrilla warfaring bandit led 500 of his bandits across the border and raided the army camp, numbering 325 men. A brisk fight followed and Villa retreated into Columbus, little more than & cattle camp where he held his position long cnough to pillage and fire buildings.

The president’s term expires December 1 and according to the constitutio: he cannot succeed himself. Governor Aguirre's petition will say that Calles is the bonly person who is fitted to assure peace inas- much as General Alvaro Obregon, the president-elect, has been assas sinated. A similar petition has been Soted by the party of Adalberto Tejedo, who Sunday was elected governor of Vera Cruz, while several agrarian roups have made similar actions in the last fortnight. Another important angle on the belief Calles will be requested to continue in office is the statement of Aaron Sacnz that the Obregon hewdguarters in the capital will be dishanded. Some quarters interpret this as meaning the Obregonists now virtually are leaderiess with Calles their one hope. They say that Saenz would maintain the or- ganization if he was the actual as the titular leader of the s expected that if the demand enough Calles might agree to an additional two years in office. through patriotic motives, degpite his announced desire to relinquish control of the government Decem- ber Meanwhile Bishop Miguel De La Mora of San Luis lotosi, who at is hiding in Mexico, has Ived the Catholic church of all blame in the assassination of Gen- eral Obregon.

He was fined $15 and costs on each count. Attorney Monroe §. Gordoen of New Britain represented him in court. The case was post- poned from Saturday night in order to allow Constable Haymond V. Hal- cran, who made the arrest, to sum- mon more witnesses. Deraigne, with fire other friends came from New Britain to attend the picnic but arrived in a drunken ! condition and when ordered from the club's hall for disobeying a rule, | they began to fight. When they were ejected from the hall, the fight con- tinued and developed into a free- for-all with pop bottles flying in all directions. No one was seriously in- jured. Michael Pasquerelle, one of Deraigne's friends was fined in court Saturday night on charges of breach of the peace and drunkenness. The charge against Deraigne was driving while under the influence of liquor but was changed to disobeying an efficer when the testimony was tound to be insufficient to convict him on the former charge. Consta- ble Halleran called Constables E. Floyd Rice, Benedict Paternostro and Grand Juror Harold G. Lucas for ald in quelling the disturbance. After the fight Derainge and his triends fled from the scene in an au- tomobile and fal to stop when warned by Constable Halleran. Eleven witnesses in all were sum- moned and the case attracted a large mumber of spectators who fill- ©d the court room to capacity. The istate’s case was presented by Grand Juror Hareld G. Lucas.
