Villa Makes Statement.
Torreon, Mexico, June 18.?General
rilla to-day issued the following stateient
regarding his relations with Gen.
Jarranza:
' I have received to-day many tele
;rams from different newspapers in
he United States, asking what is the
[latter between Gen. Carranza and
lyself. I already have 9nid through
he Associated Press that there is
lothing between Gen Carranza and
ayself which in any way has altered
ur military policy. I will go even
urthe^ and 9ay, there never will be
,ny difference between Gen. Carranza j
nd myself that will interfere with
he work of the Constitutionalists.
"It would be folly for any of the
eaders to impede cr in any way
lamper the great* wuTk, now that we
.re almost within reach of our goal,
t simply would be madness to wrangle
bout individual differences. We will
ight the enemy of our people and his
aillions until we have vanquished'
hem. -After that has been accomilislied
you may rest assured that all
atriots will do their duty and,
houlder to shoulder, will work for the
ood kjL all."
Mr. W. L. Addy.
Mr. W.'L. Addy, of Gilbert, at presnt
a member of the county boaid of
ommissioners is announced as a can[idate
for another term. '-Bill" is a
lever fellow and his friends ?.9sert
hat he has made a splendid member
if the board. Mr. Addy will meet the
oters during the coming camp " *n
nd will be amply able to tell tfc. eo>le
of hi9 work during the past two
rears.
