Tha Mex ican government coneidera aa cloyed the incident brought aoout by the crossing of American troop into Mexican terrl- Chihuahua City and the border. Efforts to warn these Americans have been made repeatedly since Sunday night, but few replies have been re ceived. Reports relayed from Parral to Jime nez. Torreon and Laredo statins; that 2000 Taqui Indians of General Manuel Dieirues' command had arrived there relieved the fears of the American com panies operating In that district. With the excitement of the battle of Juares betwen Villa and Carranaa troops and the subsequent expedition of American troops to Joares subsided, a decided change In the attitude on both sides of the border is beginning to be apparent. The feeling; of resent ment which the Carranaa officials and military officers in Juares felt against the American troops at the time of the crossing; ia giving; way to a more friendly feeling. I The Americans on this border have also changed their attitude toward the military authoritiea because of the ex pedition. At first the military waa aeverely criticised. - .

Ke Reply Be Made. Officials of the department said this communication waa the only one in the nature of a protest received from the Mexican government; that it waa not regarded aa a formal protest and that no reply would be made. Announcement waa made today by the atate department that American officials in Mexico had made strong representations to Ihe Mexican govern ment for the protection of Americana in the disturbed area of that country.

Tangle Over Entry of Cottage at II' wuo Beach Still Has) Un settled Angles in Court. ILWACO, Wash.. Jnne IS (Spe cial.) The case of the state against Joe Knowlea, the "nature man." and A. L. Samuels, in which Morris B. Wells of Portland charged them with assault and battery, ended at 2 o'clock this morning after the jury had de liberated three hours. Both Knowles and Samuels were acquitted. In the case Wells alleged that he had been beaten, bruised and other wise manhandled by Knowlea, assisted by Samuels. The testimony tended to show that Wells was the aggressor. A second charge against Knowlea and Samuels, tried at the same time, re sulted in disagreement, the jury ap parently standing four to two for con viction. In this case Wells charged tha defendants with unlawful entry Into his cottage, occupied by Miss Sallie Sabin of Portland. A counter-charge of assault has been preferred against Wells by Knowles and Samuels, and the trial will be held Wednesday, June 25. An interested community ia expected to turn out in force to bear this case. In the trial of the first case Mr. Wells and Miss Sabin in their testl mony made frequent references to th defendants as "roughnecks, "ruffians' and "gentlemen." and were reprimand ed by the court several times. The state tried to prove that Mr. W ells was justified in using force .if necessary to eject the defendants from the cottage and to show that Mr. Knowles and Mr. S&muela made the attack after Mr. Wells had -pushed Mr. Knowles "gently" toward the door. Mr. Wells frankly admitted that eventually Mr. Knowles won the struggle. REPRISALS Bl" VILLA FEARED Americana at Merry of Rebels in Interior of Mexico. EL PASO. Tex, June 18. Interest in Mexican developments on this border ehlfted today from the Juares sector to the interior, where Americana are at the mercy of Francisco Villa and his former rebels, except in the larger towns and cities, ahould Villa start a campaign of reprisal against Americans because American troops crossed the border Sunday night and drove his men away from Juarea. Telegraph lines are down south of Juarez, tha railroad is completely wrecked between Juares and Chihuahua City and wagon roads are dangerous because of Villa's presence southwest of the Mexican town, so that nothing can yet-be learned of the developments south of the international boundary.

Unless the blood Is pure and red the poisons of rheumatism cannot be driven from the system.

Describing his experience, be says: "I had severe rheumstic pains in my back and limbs for three years. I couldn't lie comfortably in bed and the pain never left me for long at a time. My stomach was disturbed also and I suffered from heartburn. When I stopped or made a sudden movement a sharp pain passed across my back. "A friend, learning of my trouble, advised me to try Dr. Williams Pink Pills and I followed bis advice. Gradual ly the pain became less severe and I was able to sleep soundly at night. I continued the treatment until the rheu matism left me and my appetite Im proved. I no longer have stomach trouble and feel better than I have for yearn.

"Our association haa gone on record oeing opposed to low-standard medical schools and diploma mills and will not admit into membership those who are not qualified to practice." Dr. Mayer said, "but it sees no reason to exclude osteopaths or drugless physi. clans who have had a thorough medi cal training covering a period of sev eral years. "Sacrifices most be made in one form or another for any great cause." he continued, "and I know of no greater and better cause than the right to heal the sick, unhampered, unimpaired and unrestricted by obnoxious clasa legia lation of an autocratic and self-per petuating body of men, who, under ths guise of wishing to serve humanity, are endeavoring to formulate laws that hsve the appearance of being made for the benefit of mankind."

OIL RENTALJS DOUBLED State to Share In Brisk Speculation in Washington. OLTMPIA. Wash, Jnne IS. (Special.) Brisk speculation in state oil land leases since the news became general of the Standard OH company's Inten tion to test oil prospects of the Olym pic peninsula today caused Clark V. Savldge. state land commissioner, to double the rental rate on all state oil land leases west of the Cascade moun tains, effective June 19. This brings the rate to i00 a section annually, on five-year leases. The state commis sioner says the state as well as private speculators should share in the in creased value of such leases. Since last October the state land de partment has issued oil leases for "j.uOO " acres In Clallam. Jefferson, Grays Harbor. Lewis, Pacific Wahkia kum and Cowlltx counties, realising a total of 831.000 in advance rentals under the old rate. Whether there is enough state land left unleased in the sup posed oil regions to make the higher rate a source of any considerable reve nue to the state has not been estimated.

Bca4 The Cresonisa classified ads. Executive Calls Sacramento Cruise "Event of life" Danger Is Soon Forgotten. BY BEN W. OLCOTT, Governor of Oregon. SACRAMENTO. CaX, June 18. (Spe cial.) Colonel Watson, commanding officer of Matner Field, near Sacra mento, and in charge of tbe aerial squadron on its northern flight to Portland and the Rose Festival, kindly extended me an Invitation to accom pany him through Oregon on his re- urn trip home. This took: me to Ash land, after stops at Albany, Cottage Grove, Roseburs and Grants Pass. Having- gone this far he suggested that I play the hand out and go with him to Sacramento and pay my respects to Governor Stephens. By this time was getting very much interested in aviation and, am free to confess, liked it. I was impressed with the great interest and enthusiasm of the .people of the respective communities through which va passed. We did not make a landing field, but wherever we were thousands of people gathered to see the ships. The practical use of these planes so impressed me that 1 decided to go on and take up with author ities the matter of Introducing aerial activities in Oregon. The last leg of the three days' Jour ney was made Monday afternoon as we were not able to start across the Sis kiyous until noon on account of heavy cloud banka encircling the summit. Stops made en route to Sacramento were Granada. Redding, Red Bluff and Marysville, a distance of approximately 300 miles. We had a wonderful trip. I have not words properly, to describe it. 1 enjoyed every minute of it, it was the event ol, nxy lila. Al? impression ot aviation has been revolutionized. Be fore this trip I looked upon it only as a plaything and a most dangerous one at that. I do not now so regard it. When airplanes are handled by such men of experience as Colonel Watson and his lieutenants and one is daily closely associated with them, one learns to have the greatest con fidence and any apprehension one may have had practically vanishes. These airmen feel as secure and . safe in their planes as the average automo bile owner does behind nis wneei. SAVINGS DIRECTOR NAMED E. P. Ash In Charge of Work for Skamania Connty, Washington.
