Political battle with leas persona! passion and an end to the war within the country by competition of classes" were the Ideas which G?>v. Woodrow Wilson set forth tonight in a spee< ii before the L'nited St ites-spanlsh war veterans. The 1 >? operatic presidential nomi? nee wee- enthusiastically cheered as he spoke on the steel pier to a large crowd. He declared the Spanish American war had had its value in drawing the nation together and de? stroying sectional feeling. To the In? ternal politics of the country, he made brief reference. ' The trouble w ith this i ountry," said the governor, 'is thet it bag been blindly at war within itself by I com? petition of interests, when there should have been a union i f inter? est*. The way not to cure it is to set one class against another. The way to cure It Is to sec that classes understand one another, that they nil know that there is such a thing as a common Interest which touches thorn all alike. "I belong to a political party. For the time being I represent a politi? cal party; but 1 respect a political party mer?dy us the means of banding men together for a service, which, when they have done to the utter? most, they have forgoten parties In a common service. Not all men think alike, and therefore men must group themselves according to their convic? tions and their thoughts but the im? pulse back of every one of them must be th> same, if it is indeed the im? pulse of^ patrhdie conviction, ^nd so 1 congritulute you upon having gone to a s?-hool in at least one of the schools of patriotism." "I wish that party battles could be fought with less personal passion and more passion for the common SjOOs\ I am not irterested In fighting per? sons, but I mi Interested In fighting bad tendencies, bad system?, things that lower ait the levels of cur po? litical and economic morality, and I could wish that these things be vis? ible 'in I tangible so that we would not have to fight them through per? sons. "I wish that they were of such a ?ort that you had only to hold them up to let the whole nation see how ugly they are and how undesirable. ' For we must get this vision 1? - fore we ate t; Uc with our politics, the Mam.- \lM-.n that the soldier g' ts; that it di?e? not make any difference what part of the country he comes from, It does not make any difference whit he has; the p.?Int Is that there is something that binds him t?. his fol? lows which he can not brook without commitlng treason. "The thing he SOI i"t bfSQS is the bond <?f common sympathy and of common understa nding.* that he is en-? gaged in a cause and that only the cause ggg make him ffl it." Oov.

TER, Defeat of Rebel Leader, Salazar, and (Government's Intentiiou to Mo\c Mroops Over American Soil Consid? ered Favorable Pacts. Washington, Sep. 10?Permlssioa given to move 1,200 Mexican troops through United States territory to attack the Mexican Rebels in the State of Senora and the reported re? pulse and retreat from the border of the rebel leader, Gen. Salazar, and his men, combined today to bring satis? faction to government officials here. The permission to move troops was granted Mexico without hesitation, and everything will be done to insure careful transportation of the federals. While a certain amount of unrest will exist on the international bound? ary UM as long as the trouble In Mex? ico continues, officials here are deep? ly gratllled that the scene of hostili? ties apparently Is being removed from the border. With a considerable force of federals already garrisoning strate? gic towns In Sonora, it Is expected that the 1,200 additional men will be sutlicient either to subdue the rebe ls or force them further South. The Mexican troops will be en? trained at El Paso and be transport? ed to Xogales, Ariz. Their arms and ammunition will be carefully sealed In express cans so they will go through American territory unarmed. In ad? dition they will be guarded by a de? tachment of United States regulars. The date for the movement has not be*n set. The defeat of Gen. Salazar by the federals in Jinaga was learned here today with satisfaction. His presence on the border has been a menace ti the continuance of peaceful relations with the Mexican people because of his rales into American territory. There i3 much speculation on the concentration of rebel bands in the Ojai mountains and their prepara? tions for a long and hurried march. Military observers are inclined to be? lieve the rebel loaders Intend either to gain the Mexican Central railroad and Intercept the federals before they can get to El Paso, or they OOntem? plate escapt from the federal cordon seeking to surround them, and are planning a lighting retreat along the mountain.-, until they can join the Za? patista! in the south. if tin> latter move is sdopted the campaign, it is a? knowledged, win i? ? a lengthy and a costly one. The rebels are reported to have plenty of horses, and consequently are much better equipped for such a campaign than the federt is.

WARN BUYERS OF CROOKS. Will Urge Hiera Not to be laired on by Prosnlse of Great Profit?. Washington, Sept. 11.?The depart? ment of agriculture in a report soon to be issued will sound a note of warning to all interested against or? chard investment schemes that hold out promises of profits far in excess of what the department experts re? gard as warranted. Many inquiries have reached the department regard? ing orange, apple and other enter? prise where the orchardizing is to be done by proxy and in son e cases the claims of profits are alluring in the extreme. It is possible that some of the claims will be called to the at? tention of the postorfioe department because of the circulation of the al? luring literature through the mails. Not all the schemes are frowned upon by the department as will be pointed out in the report. This docu? ment, based upon inquiry into a num? ber of the plans, in at least one of which prominent government offi? cials personally ate interested, will give clear suggestions and hints to city folk Who are considering making investments in the I >ealled "orchar? dizing by proxy."
