AMERICAN COURSE HALTED
Incision as to What Government
Will Do If Rebel Leader Comes

Made at Present.
WASHINGTON. Aug. 10. Despite as
sertions that the Mexican revolution is
not over, the State Department's ad
vices today led officials here to be

peace and his offer is still open to th
r ... .
Senor Biddap, representative nere 01
the revolutionary party, again has
asked Senor Caledoso. the Mexican Am.
bassador, for an audience to discuss
peace terms. Caledoso recently re
fused a similar request.
"What action this Government would
take if Orozco were to come to the
United States has not been decided,
Any arrangement he might make with
President Madero would not bind the
Department of Justice in any action
it might take to prosecute him lor al
leged violation of the neutrality laws.
Governor Colquitt's appeal to the
Federal Government tow get after the
raiders who have crossed the line
into Texas has been delayed because
the Governor addressed all his com
munications to Secretary Stimson. The
avenue of communication between the
Governor of a state and the Govern
ment is the Secretary of State. His
messages have been referred to Mr.
Knox.
Meanwhile, however. Colonel Stee
ver has dispatched . troops to disperse
the bands of marauders.
.MEXICO CITY IS HOPEFT1
Rumor at Capital Is That 15 Days
Armistice Is Arranged.
MEXICO CITY. Aug. 10. In spite of
the reported repudiation by General
Orozco of his alleged proposals of
peace, there still is great expectancy
here that further negotiations may
bring about a peace agreement. Off!
cials naturally are secretive, but It is
rumored a 15 days' armistice Is to be
arranged.
General Victoriano Huerta, com
mander-in-chlef of the federal troops,
It is reported. Is not unlikely to go
to Juarez to assist in the negotiations.
It is even asserted that a train is In
readiness to proceed south from Juarez
to convey him to that city, under a flag
of truce. At the same time, however,
dispatches from Torreon say refugees
are pouring In there with reports that
the rebels under General Benjamin
Argumendo and General de la Torre
re approaching tnat town witn tne in
tention of attacking the line of com
munications and harassing the federal
troops.
JUST RtTSE, DECIjARES OROZCO
Rebel General Says Only Madero's
Resignation Can Bring Peace.
JUAREZ, Mexico. Aug. 10. On read
Ing'the dispatch from Mexico City that
he had made overtures lor peace n ai
lowed to escape from Mexico unprose-
cuted. General Pascual Orozco, commander-in-chief
of the rebel forces,
made flat denial today of the whole
story. Still maintaining that he had
made no peace proposals to Katael Her
nandez. Minister of Fomento of Ma
dero's Cabinet, who left El Paso yes
terday. Orozco declared the whole re
port was a ruse on the part of the fed
eral government to create the lmpres
slon that he was weak.
"I am tired of repeating that the
rebels will stop fighting only at the
resignation of President Madero and of
his Cabinet," said the rebel commander.
-It Is false that I have ever admitted
a lack of power In commanding any of
the rebel leaders. It Is untrue that
I have ever made any peace proposal
other than on the abolition of the Ma
dero government. The fighting will
continue."
DEMOCRATS YET IN DOUBT
(Continued From First Pa Re.)
the activity of Democratic clubs and
the talk that runs' In political circles
indicates the party has come to life
again. Of course, nobody knows and
nobody can know what is to come from
the peculiar Washington politlcial con
ditions of this year, but there should
be more Democratic offige-huntlns
than there actually Is.
That old-time leaders have recog
nized the chance Is shown by the fil
ings for Governor. And that the old
time superstition regarding Democratic
success runs through the rank and file
Is evident from the fact that minor
candidates are fewer, the - argument
' being that merely the more important
offices can be won.
There are seven Demoratlc Guberna
torial candidates, all but two of them
widely known. L. F. Chester's ac
quaintance is largely limited to Pierce
County, wh'ere he once resided, and
Spokane, where he now lives. He Is an
attorney and may lay claim to special
credit from the fact that the Demo
cratic state convention at Walla Walla
wrote its platform from his campaign
enunciations.
Yonthfnl Candidate Aspires.
Hugh C Todd, another little-known
candidate, is less than 30 years of age.
He went back to Whitman County
from Oregon, hit upon a time when
the Demorats wanted a candidate for
County Clerk, got the nomination and
election. Then he made two success
ful races for the Legislature and
finally removed to "King County. He
was secretary of the Woodrow Wilson
campaign committee In the state and
gained some acquaintance then. But,
after all. he Is little known and his
youth militates against him. Todd
personally hopes for a nomination
through second-choice votes.
Of the others. Colonel William H. Dun
phy, of Walla Walla, la an old locomo
tive engineer, but long a successful
Walla Walla attorney. For the last
eight years he has been Democratic
National committeeman from this state.
Is a close personal friend of William
Jennings Bryan and fairly well known
to old-timers, besides being a good
campaigner.
E. C. Million is an ex-Judge of the
Superior Court in Skagit County, and
once a Democratic nominee for Justice
of the Supreme Court. He came down i
from Skagit County to Seattle a few
years ago. but that he has always re
talned his hold on Northwestern Dem
ocrats was indicated by the fact that
the Skagit County convention three
months ago indorsed his gubernatorial
candidacy. Just how strong he is io
cally is not certain, but that be has a
good following is true.
' M. M. Godmu la Character.
M. M. Godman. another King County
oandldate, Is, like the two others hail
ing from Seattle, a comparative new
comer here. But Godman was a ter
ritorial Judge, held a similar position in
Columbia, Garfield and Asotin counties
since statehood and has sat in . the
Legislature. He cam to Seattle as a
member of the state commission to tne
Alaska-Tukon-Paclflc-Exposltion, but
has not practiced law much recently.
He has heavy investments in Mexico
that have taken most of his time. Boa
man will be remembered by old-time
convention followers as the man who,
after fusion was finally accomplished
In 1900. Disced John R. Rogers in nom
lnatlon for a second term, evoking
probably one of the greatest convention
demonstrations the state nas Known,
He Is better known In Eastern than in
Western Washington.
Ernest Lister, of Tacoma, served on
the board of control during the Rogers
administration and was the Democratic
candidate for Congress against Judge
W. W. McCredie, after Frank cusnman
died In 1909. He gave Judge McCredie
the closest race had in that district and
is very strong in Pierce and the South
western counties. Though a compara
tively1 young man he has been in poll
tics ever since he was old enougn to
vote and has attracted some attention
In. this campaign from the fact that he
took a compulsory retirement from of
fice philosophically and immediately
turned to and made a business success.
Judffe Black Between Fires.
Judge W. W. Black, of Everett, has
been on the Snohomish County Su
perior Court bench for eight years, was
the Democratic nominee for Congress
against Will E. Humphrey two years
ago. and used to be extremely popular
in his home county. He may have in
Jured himself by leading a losing fight
for Champ Clark In Snohomish, which
s a Wilson stronghold, and then after
being sent as a delegate to the Balti
more convention, by attempting to com
pel the Washington delegation to flop
from Clark to Wilson. Black is a
strong friend of Bryan and It is be
lieved that Bryan influenced his action
at Baltimore, but in any event the at
titude left both Clark and Wilson men
angry.
It is the fight over the gubernatorial
nomination that will bring Democrats
to the primaries of September 10, if
anything will. Thero is contest enougn
over the Congressional nominations to
add zest to the fight and a few state
offices are fought over. But If the
seven candidates for Governor 'cannot
bring out a good primary vote for the
Democrats, nothing win certainly ins
countv fights will not, for in most
counties committees had to go in search
of nominees.
Here and there factional differences
exist which are not going to be healed.
but as a rule the Clark and Harmon
forces are lining up for the Democratic
ticket. As a matter of fact, these two
factions are easier to swing into line
that would have, been the Wilson fac
tion if any of the anti-Wilson men had
won. It is even possible that Wilson
comes nearer uniting the party here
than would have Bryan, but tnat la
largely conjecture, for there Is no means
of knowing whether or not ante-con
vention statements regarding Bryan
would have held good during the campaign.
Friction Is Not serious.
There is friction over the chairman
ship of the Democratic State commit
tee, C. G. Heifner holding it as a mat
ter of right, although a candidate for
congress from the First District, and
D. J. Williams, of Tacoma, demanding
the office because of an Indorsement
given him by the Walla Walla conven
tion. As there is no means of easily
making the switch this friction is not
serious. There are outcropplngs of lo
cal troubles such as the anti-George
Turner fight in Spokane and the split
between two King County factions that
demand control of the organization, but
as a rule these Democratic troubles
are not so serious that they cannot
be easily adjusted.
In view of these facts it is difficult
to understand why the Democrats had
to work so hard to fill up their ticket
for a great many people undoubtedly
will feel that the .Democratic, claims
to victory cannot be well founded if
m much reluctance was shown. Bui.
as remarked before, maybe it Is all
traceable to the fact that tne De
mocracy in this state has lost the office
seeking habit. I

Whole Salinas Valley Taken by
Invaders, Who Are Liv
ing on Country.
DEFENDERS IN RETREA
Maneuvers Are on Largest Scale
Ever Held on .Pacific Coast and
Long Perplexing Problem Is
to . Be Studied.
COYOTE, Cal., Aug. 10. The "Red'
Army has been theoretically landed
from the transports In Monterey Bay
and the advance guard has taken pos
session of the entire Salinas Valley.
The news of the invasion by a hostile
foe at the seacoast town has been tele
graphed to Army headquarters in San
franclsco and tonight Brigadier-Gen
eral Walter Schuyler has' ordered his
forces to. assemble at the presidio to
give battle.
"Red" scouts have destroyed .both
telegraphic and railroad lines and are
drawing on the entire countryside for
supplies. Pickets of the lnvadors have
been sent out from the advance force
and every precaution has been taken by
the commander of the "Reds so that
there will be no surprise attack.
San Francisco to Be Stormed.
It is the object of the Invading com
mander to march northwest as soon as
possible and storm the fortifications of
San Francisco. The maneuver, which
is the largest ever held on the Fa
ciflc Coast, has been ordered by th
War Department In Washington. The
problem to be fought Is one that has
been perplexing the general staff for a
number of years.
Immediately on the landing of the
rebel advance guard, the garrison of
regular troops, comprising two bat
talions of the Twelfth United States In
fantry. stationed at the Presidio Mon
terey, retreated northward. .This was
considered advisable by the Colonel of
the regiment ' owing to the superior
force of the enemy. The two bat
talions will constitute part of the Blue
force and will march northward out o
range of the guns of the enemy until
they Joint the defenders from San Fran
Cisco.
Militia General in Command.
Interest Is being taken in the man
euVers by regular Army officers not
attached to either force, because of the
fact that for the first time In the his
torv of the country a military General,
Brigadier-General Wankowski, has
been ordered to command one of the
armies.
The retreating Blue Infantry from
Monterey passed through Salinas today
on its march and is expected to reacn
this point some time Monday. The
troops will only stop long enough to
catch a few hours sleep and then re
sume their march. '
The problem Is a most difficult one
and is similar to conditions of an ac
tual war. It Is supposed that a latge
fleet of a. foreign power has appeared
off the Golden Gate, but that it was
unsuccessful in attempting to enter.
The American Pacific fleet, being
smaller in number, has sought refuge
in the harbor of San Francisco, and is
there bottled up through a blockade by
the enemy's cruisers and torpedo boats.
The transports of the invaders then
went south to Monterey, where they
landed their advance guara.
